Fisherman's Secret

Fang Jing and Cen Jiu went to a car dealership with a good reputation in Haicheng, compared them, chose a mid-priced economical SUV, made an appointment to pick up the car, and brought Cen Jiu back to the urban area.

Zhang Yue only had time on weekends, and today was only Thursday, so Fang Jing planned to stay in Haicheng for a few more days, not rushing back to Jingcheng, and took Cen Jiu for a stroll. Speaking of which, Cen Jiu had been here for nearly a year. He hadn't had a good time with him yet.

He booked a business hotel not far from the Haida campus, and was about to take Cen Jiu out for dinner when Mrs. Lu called and asked the two of them to go home for dinner.

Fang Jing touched the small box in his pocket, only to find that he forgot to give Professor Lu the few Mexican Eagle Silver Dollars he brought over, and he readily agreed.

Mrs. Lu's craftsmanship is really good.

The weather was too hot, Fang Jing bought some fruit and Cen Jiu wandered all the way to Professor Lu's house for dinner.

Professor Lu's son stayed abroad all the year round to receive the influence of capitalism, and he seldom went home. Mrs. Lu was eager to see her son, and when she saw young people of the same age, she became motherly, and she completely regarded Fang Jing and Cen Jiu as her own sons. Seeing the two of them approaching, he immediately ordered the vigorous Cen Jiu to go downstairs to carry the buckets.

Fang Jing and Cen Jiu had just entered the house, didn't take a sip of water, went downstairs to carry purified water again, moved six or seven buckets in one go, and put them in the living room.

Professor Lu hurriedly greeted them and said: "Don't worry about it, go wash your face, sit and enjoy the wind, and eat when it cools down."

Fang Jing was so hot that he stood at the vent of the air conditioner for a long time, his body temperature dropped and he felt cool, so he went to sit on the sofa.

When he sat down, some hard box in his pocket scratched him, and he remembered it. He took out a small box from his trouser pocket, handed it to Professor Lu, and said, "Teacher, this is for you."

Professor Lu pushed the rimless glasses on the bridge of his nose, picked up the box and looked at it carefully, and asked, "What is this? You must have given it to the wrong person, right?"

The box was small and looked like a jewelry box. I thought it was for Mrs. Lu, but when I opened it, it turned out to be four Mexican eagles. I was overjoyed.

"Where are you from?"

Fang Jing was peeling apples with a fruit knife, and said, "Last time, I caught a lot of them from the fishing boat. I'll give you a few as souvenirs."

"Hahaha, this is good, this is good." Professor Lu was very happy, and immediately went back to the room and took a magnifying glass and began to fiddle with these small silver dollars.

The current price of Mexican eagles in the collection industry is only a few hundred yuan each, and the sum of four pieces is less than 2000 yuan. To Professor Lu, it is not a very expensive gift, but his heart is to be unable to resist collecting coins. Well, Fang Jing's gift is not considered expensive, but it is just what he likes.

"Let me take a look at this, it's up to you." Professor Lu said, and took a magnifying glass to study the coins carefully. The whole person was immersed in the exploration of the new coins, completely forgetting that there were two guests at home. .

Fang Jing was not surprised, and did not feel slighted.He handed the peeled apple to Cen Jiu, and said, "Eat an apple, and we'll be eating in a while."

He knew about Cen Jiu's good appetite, Mrs. Lu's meal at noon was carefully prepared, but the portion was not very large, so Cen Jiu probably didn't eat.

Cen Jiu took it over, and began to gnaw on the apple with a "click, click".

Mrs. Lu, who had been busy in the kitchen, thought of something, poked her head out of the kitchen, and said, "Xiao Fang, the light on the balcony seems to be broken, can you change it for me? There are stairs in the miscellaneous room."

"Okay." Fang Jing got up and went to the utility room to get the stairs.

Cen Jiu ate the apple in a few mouthfuls, stood up, picked up the stairs with one hand and put them on the balcony, climbed up with a few "噗噗噗", quickly changed the light, and climbed down again "噚噚噚". Carrying the stairs with one hand and putting them back into the miscellaneous room.

It takes less than 3 minutes before and after, which is extremely efficient.

Fang Jing wiped his face and didn't speak for a long time.

In the living room, Professor Lu beamed on the phone, showing off to his friends who were also coin collectors.

"Old Liu, I just got four Mexican Eagles, when are you coming over?"

"Didn't there be a report on TV last time, a young man in a fishing village over there in Jingcheng picked up a skeleton boat, which was caught by my student, and there were a lot of Mexican eagles, so he gave me a few as souvenirs .”

"Hahaha, that's that, that's okay, come and have a look when you have time, two lace and two straight ones, both of them are in good condition, come and have a look someday."

The little old man was terrified.

Fang Jing thinks the little old man with a showy face is also quite cute.

Mrs. Lu put the food on the table, looked at the two boys with a smile, and greeted them: "Lao Lu, Xiao Fang and Xiao Chen, come to eat soon."

Professor Lu hung up the phone reluctantly, and sat down with Fang Jing and the others.

While eating, the old man thought of something and asked, "How many silver dollars did you get?"

Fang Jing said, "A lot, maybe two or three tons."

After landing, he weighed a little over three tons.

Professor Lu was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed.The old man patted him on the shoulder and said, "Not bad, it seems that you are right to resign this time."

As a leader in the field of cultural relics, Professor Lu certainly knows the value of two to three tons of Mexican Eagle Ocean. Even if it is melted and sold directly for silver, it will be worth a lot according to the silver price of the year.

"Toefl, it's just good luck." Fang Jing also smiled, thinking that if he hadn't been sure that he had the golden finger that day, he wouldn't have dared to resign.

Mrs. Lu also asked curiously, "Xiao Fang, did you really catch so many skeletons?"

"Really." Fang Jing put half a bowl of food in front of Cen Jiu with his serving chopsticks, put down the chopsticks, and said, "When we first met, I was shocked. The scene was really spectacular."

There are more than 500 complete skeletons, not counting the broken ones, piled up on the bottom of the sea like a small hill.

Thinking of the origin of those skulls, Mrs. Lu sighed and said, "It's really a crime."

But what can be done!In that dark and chaotic era, human life was worthless, and there were not many Chinese workers who died unjustly like this.

The atmosphere was a bit dull for a while, everyone didn't speak, just bowed their heads and ate in silence.

After a while, Professor Lu said: "This is all in the past. Our country is now stronger, and no one can bully us like before."

"I'm not feeling well." Mrs. Lu sighed, took a spoon to give Fang Jing a spoonful of his favorite meatballs, and said, "I chopped these meatballs. I made them myself. You can eat more of them." a little."

"Master's wife made the best meatballs." Fang Jing complimented her sweetly, coaxing Mrs. Lu to cover her mouth and laugh.

"What are you going to do with those silver dollars? Should you melt them down and sell them, or sell them slowly one by one?" Professor Lu began to think about how to maximize the students' interests.

The price of silver is low, and it is not worthwhile to sell it after melting, and it is a pity that they are all genuine Mexican eagles from the 19th century.

Moreover, cultural relics have always been rare and expensive. The price of Mexican Eagle Ocean is now good, but if there are hundreds of thousands of them suddenly, the number is too large, and it will have a big impact on the collection market.

Fang Jing is also thinking about this issue. He is short of money now, but he is not willing to melt it into ingots and sell it as precious gold. After all, although he got a lot of things this time, the hundreds of skeletons alone cost a lot of money. If the silver dollars were melted, he wouldn't actually be able to make much money from this shipwreck.

"How about I get in touch for you to see if my old friends want anything, and I'll contact you when the time comes." Professor Lu said, "If you're not in a hurry to spend money now, just wait a little longer."

"Okay." Fang Jing nodded, "I'll listen to the teacher."

Speaking of which, most of the things he caught were sold by Professor Lu who helped him contact buyers. Although the price may not be the highest, but fortunately, they are all good characters, and there has been no problem so far.

It’s really not possible. There are nearly a hundred pieces of Ming Dynasty official porcelain he caught last time. After two or three years, when the Siamese boat incident is over, those two boxes of jewelry and a pile of ancient Siamese porcelain will arrive. I can also let go.

That's all money, and a lot of it.

Coming out of Professor Lu's house, it's not far from the hotel anyway, Fang Jing didn't bother to call a taxi, so he and Cen Jiu wandered back slowly.

There are many snack bars near the university. Although many stores are closed during the summer vacation, there are still many food stalls and night snack bars on both sides.

Fang Jing chose the busiest restaurant with a lot of people, ordered two bowls of noodles, and ordered a lot of barbecue, and accompanied Cen Jiu to eat before going back to the hotel.

After taking a bath, Fang Jing stroked Cen Jiu's flat belly and said, "I've always been curious, where do you eat so much food every day?"

After eating so much, I didn't see any fat gain, my lower abdomen was still flat, my six-pack abs were looming, and I didn't have a trace of excess fat all over my body. Fang Jing was so thin and thin, Fang Jing would envy and hate him every time he saw her.

With wet hair on his face, Cen Jiu took his mischievous hand away and said, "It's a lot of consumption."

After all, he looked at Fang Jing's sleek and sleek body with very dark eyes.

For more than a year, Fang Jing's body has become much stronger after drifting on the sea all the year round. The previous image of a soft, white-faced scholar is completely gone forever, but compared to Cen Jiu, it is not enough.

"It's not fair. We eat the same food and do the same job. Why are our bodies so different?" Fang Jing yelled in dissatisfaction.

Cen Jiu ignored him, threw the towel away, steamed his hair dry with luck, lay down on the bed, and said to Fang Jing, "Sleep."

He has been practicing martial arts since he was three years old, how could it be the same until now.

"No, I want a tendon like yours too." Fang Qin lay down on Cen Jiu's body, pinching him here and there, envious.

In Cen Jiu's mind, Fang Jing's muscular and stiff body was automatically substituted, and he was strangely silent for a few seconds, then decisively pulled him into his arms, and turned off the lights to sleep.

Compared with the hard and muscular man, it is better to look white and soft now, and it is comfortable to hold.
