59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang

The two of them were very busy, and Chen Feng was very busy.

"Xiao Chen, do you want a watch ticket?"

Ye Jin came in and gave him a ticket.

"Uncle Ye, what do you want?" Chen Feng didn't take it.

In the past few days, he sold more than a dozen mallards, dozens of duck eggs and three pheasants. With the money he had earned before, he had saved nearly three hundred yuan.

With money in hand, he naturally had to spend it.

And although watches are one of the three major items, Chen Feng actually prefers to go to the commission shop because sometimes he might come across antique watches.

Many children of rich people in the old times, after losing their property, lived on old things at home.

They didn't know good things, and often took some antique watches as ordinary watches and took them to the commission shop to sell.

Chen Feng had often heard people around him brag about their elders finding good things in the commissioned store.

Ye Jin rubbed his hands and said, "Ah, that's right, didn't you give me a wild boar last time?"

"One of our leaders likes to eat pig ears very much, and asked me if I could get another one."

"Uncle has been a team leader for several years. If I work harder, maybe I can be selected as a deputy director of the purchasing department next year."

Chen Feng said in embarrassment, "Uncle Ye, it's not easy to encounter wild boars. I can only say give it a try."

This kind of thing can't be guaranteed.

Although he thinks he is very lucky and wants to catch wild boars, he will definitely catch them.

But he can't guarantee it in front of Ye Jin.

Without making it too difficult, how can he highlight his strength and sincerity and make them pay more attention to him.

"No problem, I also know that wild boars are not easy to hunt now, just telling you."

Ye Jin stuffed the ticket into his hand.

"Uncle knows this is difficult. There are millions of people in the city, and people outside the city go up the mountain every day. Wild boars are becoming increasingly rare."

"You accept this ticket, not for the wild boar, but to thank you for selling me the wild boar last time. I was praised by the leader and became famous."

Chen Feng put the ticket away.

After leaving the cannery, he rode his bicycle for a while.

Finally, he went to the watch shop in Wangfujing.

After looking around for a long time, Chen Feng finally picked a product from the Shanghai Watch Factory.

"Hello, 60 yuan."

The salesperson was a middle-aged woman. Seeing Chen Feng take out the money, she smiled and said, "You are a good guy. You don't know that this Shanghai watch is a rare item."

"People say that if there is no Shanghai watch, no girl will marry."

"If you take this watch out, it will be much easier to find a wife in the future."

Chen Feng smiled awkwardly but politely.

He bought a watch simply because he thought it would be more convenient for Zhou Qing to have a watch to remind him of the time when he went out every day.

But he forgot why a watch is one of the three major items.

Although my country was able to manufacture watches in the 1950s, it was not until 1968 when the Shanghai Watch Factory broke through the annual production of 1 million watches for the first time that domestic watches began to enter the homes of ordinary people.

In April 1958, my country's first watch factory, the Shanghai Watch Factory, was built.

A total of 13,600 Shanghai watches were produced that year, and the number allocated to the four-nine cities did not exceed 4,000.

As soon as the round-headed white-faced Shanghai watch came out, it was widely promoted by newspapers across the country, and wearing it became a symbol of identity and status at the moment.

People are proud to wear Shanghai watches.

There is a saying now: "If there is no Shanghai watch, no girl will marry you."

In other words, those who can wear this watch now are all "successful people."

After leaving with the watch, he turned around and went to the commission store again.

It was still the same salesperson as last time.

"Hello, what do you want to buy?"

Chen Feng asked, "Do you have any watches?"

"Yes, yes, please come this way."

In the square glass counter, there were watches.

Chen Feng couldn't tell which of them were antique brands, and just wanted to get the space and let the poisonous tongue comment on them.

"Can I take it over and touch it?"

"Sure, which one do you like, I'll get it for you?" The little round face said enthusiastically.

Chen Feng looked carefully and found that most of them were ordinary brands that he had never heard of. He didn't find any so-called famous Swiss brand watches such as Rolex and Omega.

'Picking up a fart leak. '

Other people who sell watches don't understand, are the people in the commissioned store all fools?

He cursed in his heart and asked, "Are there any good brands, such as Rolex?"

The little round face nodded slightly, but was a little hesitant,

He said, "Yes, but this brand is very expensive, more than 100 yuan. You can buy a brand new one. Are you sure you want this old foreign brand?"

"Yes, I have a friend whose father particularly wants a brand with foreign words, saying that it is face-saving." Chen Feng said with a lot of nonsense.

"There are three existing ones, but two are broken and need to be repaired. Only one is good."

Among the three foreign watches, the intact one is Longines.

Longines is a famous Swiss brand. Compared with the record-breaking gold-plated Rolex antique watches that are often auctioned (an antique Rolex watch produced in 1954 and used by the last emperor of Vietnam was sold for 35 million yuan), Longines antique watches are relatively low-key.

A Longines antique watch from the 1960s is only 100,000 or 200,000 yuan (many counterfeiters in later generations use 10,000 or 20,000 yuan to fool the unlucky people).

But Chen Feng doesn't mind.

He just likes to collect these inexpensive small parts.

There is no way, he can't afford expensive things.

If you get cheated, you will lose everything.

On the contrary, even if this thing is screwed, you will only lose a hundred thousand.

"This one."

The little round-faced man took it out and gave it to him.

"This one is 90 yuan. If you want it, I can give you 100 yuan."

"Okay." Chen Feng smiled.

He was determined to find a way to make some more money to fulfill his antique dream.

Money is useless.

But without money, it is useless.

There are many prodigals in the city. In the past two years, they will definitely ship in large quantities for food. They will not make a fortune, but collect hundreds or thousands of antiques.

In the future, my grandchildren will not have to learn from me and envy other people's things!

As for making a fortune, there will be too many opportunities in the future.

Go back home and wait for Zhou Qing to come back at noon.

"Mom, this is for you. I wish you a happy birthday."

Zhou Qing looked at this Shanghai watch and was moved and distressed about the money.

"Two months' salary, how much money have you saved? You spend money recklessly. You should learn to save money and save it for marrying a wife in the future."

Chen Feng wanted to complain that he was only 13 years old and could not marry a wife.

However, he dared not say such words, because three generations of the family were counting on him.

The old man and the old lady wanted to hold their great-grandson every day, and they kept saying that people could get married at the age of 14 and have children at the age of 15.

Parents are used to saving money and are frugal on weekdays.

Chen Hao and Chen Li just wanted to eat the wedding candy and banquet of their eldest brother, and they didn't understand the meaning of marriage.

The old lady smiled and said, "My daughter-in-law has worked hard for so many years. She can enjoy the blessing of her eldest grandson in the future."

"Brother, buy a new bicycle."

Chen Hao held the bowl and watched Zhou Qing happily put the watch on his wrist.

"Then the old one will be given to you?"

"Yes, yes, brother, how did you know?"

"Just clean the bicycle!"
