In this era, there was a special profession of scavengers.

Moreover, with the current employment market and pitifully low garbage disposal and recycling rates, 90% of anyone doing this on a large scale will only have a way to lose money.

Wu Ming was abandoned like a piece of shoes and stayed away from the garbage that Neville had worked hard to sort out and came to another pile of things.

These are the gadgets that Neville found from the huge garbage mountain in accordance with Wu Ming's request.

Although 99% of them are real waste, they also have one or two items, which have good value.

"Um?"

For example, after walking around, Wu Ming found several broken gray-white gypsum fragments, and after combining them, he got a mermaid statue.

"Looking at this kind of line and the image of the scale mermaid, it should be the style of Luo Kai's period, which is barely considered a work of art. Although it is not a master's work, if it is glued together, it still has some collection value..."

With extensive knowledge and strong memory, coupled with eager learning, Wu Ming's current appreciation knowledge has made Wu Ming's current appreciation knowledge progress by leaps and bounds.

Especially his mental power is beyond ordinary people, and he has a very obvious perception of the vicissitudes of history on real antiques. He can basically not escape his induction within a small range.

Find old objects in the garbage mountain, and then use your own identification knowledge to identify the source. These things that were originally worthless may be turned into antiques and works of art!

After all, during the previous war period, in various turmoil and chaos, how many people would care about these? In addition, there must be many good things circulating and throwing away by ignorant people as garbage. However, with the arrival of peace, the value of antiques will still rise.

Wu Ming’s plan is to find out a few items that are of some value, and then he can take them home directly and let James sell them.

There is no need for any priceless treasures. Just a little ordinary thing is probably enough to make the entire family's economic conditions improve rapidly.

Of course, for this purpose, other waste paper and steel recycling cover should be continued.

Moreover, Wu Ming still has a little expectation.

In my previous lives, weren’t there any scenes of picking up garbage and picking up some treasures? Maybe if you do this yourself, you can pick up a few items. Although the chance is very small, it does not mean that it will not be born, right?

...

"I'm back!"

At night, after processing the batch of waste paper and scrap steel, Wu Ming smiled bitterly with a 5-cent shield, and then returned home.

"Hi Steven, how is your 'business' today?"

James and Mrs. Stirling looked at each other and both had a sense of pride and accomplishment that revealed their son's little secret.

"It's OK! Continue tomorrow."

If the mermaid statue is included, Wu Ming is quite satisfied with this return rate.

"Well……"

James and Mrs. Stirling looked at each other. They originally thought Steven should have been hit hard, so why is he still looking so full of fighting spirit?

"Steven!"

James's face suddenly became serious: "If you want to help your classmates, there are many ways, and there is no need to do this specifically!"

‘Is this a good old man who deliberately gave me money to Neville?’

Wu Ming rolled his eyes in his heart, thought for a while, and took out the mermaid statue: "Brandon, Angelina, you guys go out!"

When Wu Ming raised his face and spoke, he naturally felt a sense of majesty. Even though James and Mrs. Stirling attached great importance to the son, although Brandon muttered a few dissatisfaction, he ran back to the room and closed the door heavily.

"What is this? Toys? It has a pretty good shape..."

James said casually.

"This is a mermaid statue from Luo Kai's era. Now there are very few stocks. I think its value should be between 1oo and 0. Of course, if it has not been broken, the price will increase!"

"puff!"

James squirted out a sip of water: "What did you say?"

Even during his very glorious period, the gold and yuan were quite a big deal.

"This is what I got from picking up garbage today. Do you understand? You can sell it tomorrow, but be careful, this is a collection passed down from our family, not picked up from outside!"

Wu Ming strengthened his tone.

"Dear, this seems to be the real thing!"

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Stirling recalled: "I once saw a statue similar to this one. The price was oo gold dollar at that time. Of course, it was intact!"

"Haha...we're rich!"

James cheered: "Yes, this is what we passed down from our family, hum! No one can question it. After all, your mother still has a quarter of the bloodline of the Viscount!"

"Um?"

Wu Ming stared at Mrs. Stirling, he really didn't know about this.

"If you say so, it's a treasure mountain..."

James smiled and said, "Or why don't I stop working tomorrow, how about going to go and flip through it together?"

"You?"

Mrs. Stirling rolled her eyes: "Even if you put the antique in front of you, I'm afraid you won't be able to tell it! Our little Steven is the best!"

She kissed Wu Ming on the cheek: "How did you think of this?"

"I used to go to the auction house and exhibition hall in the city, but it was not for nothing..."

Wu Ming had already thought of the excuse: "After knowing that those things are very valuable, I specially used my identity as a senior, got the library's entry card, and borrowed a lot of books on this aspect to read..."

"Steven, you are such a genius!"

James picked up Wu Ming and threw it into the air. He stopped this action during Wu Ming's strong protest: "Haha... you have the talent of an antique appraiser! No! You are a very powerful appraiser, my god! If you weren't young, you could already try to get an appraiser job..."

James swallowed: "Even if he is the lowest-level appraiser in the auction house, his salary is several times mine..."

"Well... I'm going to do this during this holiday. Also, I think these things should appreciate as the peace time extends, so don't sell them as soon as possible, and there are..."

Wu Ming mentioned a few more precautions, which made James and Mrs. Stirling nod.

...

This summer, a lot of changes have occurred.

Brandon and Angelina felt the most obvious. First, the family’s food was significantly improved, with butter and white bread every day, as well as fried chicken and barbecue.

Immediately, their family moved out of the noisy apartment building and moved to the middle-class area of ​​the city, and rented a villa similar to that before.

After receiving a large amount of start-up capital, James can finally start trying to do his own business, and quickly made a fortune with the east wind of economic recovery.

And at this moment, the middle school department of St. George's School also opened.

"Just send me here, goodbye!"

Wu Ming jumped out of the steam car quickly and shook his hand at James inside.

For a businessman, driving a steam car is more decent than riding a bicycle or squeezing a bus, and it is easier to gain the trust of his partners.

James naturally understood this truth, and after Wu Ming's persuasion, he finally took out a few old antiques and went to the used car market to pick a steam car with a good performance.

From then on, the life of the Sterling family seemed to have returned to the track of the past. Even Mrs. Stirling's face has gradually increased recently, and she seems to have become much younger.

St. George's High School is not in the same direction as the primary school, but is located in the suburbs of the city, far from the industrial area, and the scenery looks quite good.

"Hi!"

At this time, a circle of freshmen was going through the procedures. Vidy was with her parents, next to her was Philip and Alice, who shook her hands hard after seeing him.

"Hey, how are you doing during the holiday?"

"It's okay, but you must be doing well!"

Vidy looked at Wu Ming's outfit and immediately knew that this friend's family conditions had improved greatly.

"Well, my family has done some small business and received blessings from the kingdom. Finally, I have improved a little! I will go through the procedures myself, where is the registration point?"

Wu Ming replied with a smile.

"I'll take you there!"

Vidy volunteered to lead Wu Ming: "The rules of the middle school are much looser than those of primary schools. In addition to the daily courses, there is still a lot of spare time..."

He seemed very excited.

"oh?"

Wu Ming blinked: "Will the school do this?"

"Yes, we can have fun for a while!"

Vidy laughed a few times, very happy.

"Steven, don't listen to Vidy's nonsense!"

Alice next to her suddenly interrupted. The girl seemed to have educated a lot during this period and became more beautiful: "In the middle school department, in addition to the courses, you also have to join a club!"

"Detective agency, Kendo agency, Chamber of Commerce, Smart agency, Physical agency, Chemistry agency...it must be selected to join, it is very important!"

Alice emphasized her tone: "According to the news I found out, the academics in the middle school are just to consolidate our foundation, and these clubs are the key points and directions that determine your future... For example, if you want to take the Royal Police Academy, it is best to participate in the detective agency, and the military academy is the fighting agency and the smart agency. If you want to be a scientific researcher in the future, it is the physical agency and the chemical agency..."

She got closer and lowered her voice: "These clubs will not only organize targeted study and examination training regularly, but I also heard that those presidents are the key targets on the recommended list! What about you, what do you want to do in the future?"

"This...I don't know..."

Wu Ming shrugged: "Let's take a look first..."
Chapter completed!
