"Gee!"
There is someone raising chickens downstairs in the place where Mr. Liu lives. In the morning, I was woken up by the rooster crowing, and it was just six o'clock.
I brushed my teeth and washed my face. I saw that Xiaomi had not gotten up yet and went to call her.
"Wake up, wake up, it's dawn."
"Oh, I know Brother Feng."
Xiaomi opened her mouth and yawned.
After going downstairs to have breakfast, we stopped a car and said we were going to Second Street, Cishan Town. The driver thought about it and said he knew it and got in the car.
At this time, I had an idea, that is, I felt that it was not convenient to have a car.
I can only ride motorcycles, but I am not as good as Xiaomi. Xiaomi can not only drive but also drive excavators.
I decided to wait until I got free after the New Year to learn a driver's license. I have money and I will buy a good off-road vehicle at that time. It is convenient to find a tomb and explore the site. After all, my goal in the future is to become bigger and stronger.
I passed by the White Swan Hotel and headed west. At that time, it was basically a small downhill from Wu'an to Cishan Town. You could see many large trucks that were used to pull molten iron on the road. Remember https://m in one second.
I remember that there are many steel mills and iron mills on both sides of the road. There are many workers going to work in the morning. They are in groups, riding bicycles and electric bikes on the road. The large iron trucks whizz by, and they don’t even press a horn, which scares everyone to death.
From Wu'an, the road goes downhill to Cishan Bridge. Turn left and it goes downhill again. After going down, the road becomes narrower. The driver said that Cishan Second Street is not far ahead. In front of it, it is a place called Wannian Mine. He asked us where to get off on Second Street.
I just said that it was enough to go to places with a lot of people, so the driver put us in Second Street Square.
There are many adults and children in the Second Street Square, some sell sesame cakes and buns. I asked a sister who sells buns on the roadside. The older sister said something with a local Wu'an accent.
"Who are you looking for? Xiangli? I don't know."
I asked again: "Do you know that the antique seller on Second Street?"
"You said Lao Zhang, Zhang Chunlei is my relative. He has gone to another place and has not come back. If you have any questions, please come to him. He is the section chief in the Security Department of Xinshan Steel Factory."
At that time, there were many people in Cishan Second Street Community, and there were many people. I asked a few more people, but I didn’t know where Master Xiang lived. Later, there was no way, so we went to Xinshan Steel Factory to find the son of the antique dealer.
Because his son would definitely contact the antique dealer named Zhang, and this antique dealer must know the door number of the community where Xiang Guang lives.
Xinshan Steel Plant is relatively close to Second Street. When we arrived, the section chief was patrolling the door. The man was in his thirties and was bald. He was holding a wooden stick in his hand and was constantly spinning around the guard room.
"Hello, is your father Zhang Chunlei?" I asked.
"Who are you? What are you doing with my dad?"
"I am his friend. Isn't he not at home? We have come all the way. Can you call me and want to negotiate some business?"
The bald section chief put down the wooden stick and reported his father's phone number to me.
I walked out to dial, and the phone was quickly connected.
"Who?"
"Hello, Boss Zhang. I am Xiang Yunfeng, and I am also a shoveling land. I came from Beijing."
"Yeah, the big boss from Beijing, why are you looking for me to buy something?"
I said buy it, and I will definitely go and have a look when you come back. Now someone wants to ask you about it. This person is named Xiang Guang, from Hubei. Do you know where he lives?
"You said old Xiang? You know, he bought a few hundred kilograms of copper arrows from me. He is an old friend. He had surgery last year and lived in Building 6, Garden Community, 103."
Hang up the phone, I nodded to Liao Bo and said that I had found someone
"Dingdong Dingdong" I rang the doorbell after I arrived at the place.
"Here you come."
A woman in her fifties opened the door.
"You are"
I smiled and said, "Hello, Auntie, is Master Xiang Guang here? We have something to look for him."
"Who is looking for me?" At this time, a middle-aged man with glasses came to the door.
This person is the copyist of Zeng Houyi's chime bells, Master Xiang Guang.
I showed my purpose, and Master Xiang asked me to sit in the house, and his wife poured tea.
"You are looking for the No. 7 to reveal the clock?"
"No, I only made one set for the master who was doing that thing, and there was no extra. So I advised him not to adjust the last clock. I am in this physical condition now."
At this time, Liao Bo said, "Master Xiang, we don't need the original No. 7 Bell. A few years ago, you copied the set of Zeng Houyi chimes, and it must have melted a lot of Warring States bronzes. If you think about it carefully, the chimes must be made by casting extra points, and then brazing and inlaying. Finally, it will be misplaced, carved, round inlay, lacquered, and painted. During this period, excess materials will definitely be produced."
Master Xiang was very surprised when he heard Uncle Liao's words. He said that you are also a master, and he even knew the order of the front and back, and one step was good.
Liao Bo waved his hand: "You are too rewarded, and you are apart from the mountains. Knowing that it does not mean you know how to do it. We only need the scraps of the clock from the original batch. Of course, we will not take it in vain. The economy will compensate you appropriately. Do you think 10,000 yuan is OK?"
After hearing this, Master Xiang shook his head, "It's really gone. At that time, in order to find the most suitable alloy ratio, I did a lot of experiments and all of them were consumed."
"nonsense!"
Master Xiang’s wife suddenly shouted: “You still have a pile of broken copper and iron under your bed. What’s the use of being a baby?”
After his wife finished speaking, she went straight into the bedroom. After a few minutes, she picked up a sack and threw it into the ground with a bang.
Master Xiang looked at the bag on the ground and looked painful.
His wife pointed to the sack and said, "Take it away, that's all."
Uncle Liao opened it and looked at me, nodded at me, and I immediately presented a thick envelope with both hands, with ten thousand yuan in it.
"Why"
Seeing us picking up the sack, Master Xiang Guang put down the teacup and sighed deeply.
After coming out, Liao Bo looked happy and said, "I didn't expect that there are so many left. Although it is no longer formed, this is the bronze alloy that was equipped with a batch of goods back then, and it is the same as the set of chimes. Yunfeng, now I have this thing. Even if I can't repair that, I can use these to cast one out exactly the same."
Uncle Liao was full of confidence, and his words undoubtedly gave me a reassurance. Yes, Uncle Liao could even make a wonderful sound bird, so why is it difficult for him to have a chime?
Since the purpose of this trip was achieved, we rushed back in the afternoon.
Liao Bo kept researching in the afternoon, weighing weights and drawing drawings. He kept discussing with Xiaomi and said that he would make a plan within one day.
The journey is like a mountain. As an outsider, I can’t help, so I won’t bother them anymore. When I went to the blue sky to find Xiaomei, I met Gan Longlong.
I nicknamed Danlong as the boy who fried dung.
Don’t look at him now, if I meet one day, I dare to call him a hot dung boy. He will definitely remember me and will call me Brother Feng.
"How did I tell you? Is your grandfather abnormal? For example, if you are angry?"
Gan Longlong said: "Don't worry, Brother Feng, I've watched my grandfather tightly. I followed him to the bathroom, everything is normal."
"Okay, you fell into the pit. Did your mother hit you later?"
Gan Longlong said he had beaten and took the belt and slapped it several times. I didn't dare to go to the bathroom to fire the fire.
The plan is to repair the clock tomorrow night, because Xiaomei is used as a cover and Gan Longlong is an insider. I know that Gan Ye hasn't discovered it yet, which is good news for us.
That is, it was around 2 o'clock in the second half of that night.
Another strange thing happened.
I live alone in the east room, and there is a rabbit doll on the bed. I have been used to sleeping with a rabbit doll these days.
I was asleep when I suddenly heard the bathroom faucet turned on, the running water sounded loudly, and the TV in the living room was also on.
Could it be that Xiaomi hasn't slept so late?
At first I didn't care, so I turned over and continued to sleep with the rabbit on both legs. Later, after more than ten minutes, the noise was not small.
I sat up from the bed and shouted twice that Xiaomi is you?
No one responded outside the living room.
Turn on the bedside lamp, I put on my slippers and pushed the door and walked out.
The living room has no lights on and the TV is on.
You should have seen it? At that time, the TV stopped at 1:00 in the evening. There was no show to watch. There was only a seven-color circular pattern on the TV screen, and there were still dripping sounds.
I went over and turned off the TV and walked to the door of Xiaomi's room.
The door was not locked. Through the crack of the door, I saw Xiaomi lying on the bed and facing me with her back, and the quilt was kicked aside, and she was obviously asleep.
I quietly pushed the door and went in to cover Xiaomi with a quilt and came out to close the door. At this time, the faucet of the toilet and bathroom was still on. I thought it might be that Xiaomi had forgotten to turn off the washing before going to bed, so I walked over.
The bathroom door was closed and it was a little dark. I slowly twisted my hand and pushed open the door.
There is a mirror on the toilet table.
At this time, I saw a black shadow in front of the mirror, shining my hair at the faucet with my head down. When I looked carefully, it was Liao Bo.
Uncle Liao kept rubbing his hair without putting on a shampoo.
It's all cold water, and the water temperature is very low.
"Brother Liao, you shampoo your hair? It's very cold. Don't catch a cold." I shouted behind him.
Hearing me talking, Liao Bo stopped washing his hair.
He didn't wipe his head, but suddenly turned around and looked at me, blinking constantly.
Uncle Liao blinked non-stop.
Chapter completed!
