Chapter 481 It's easy to add flowers to brocade, but difficult to provide charcoal in the snow.
Chapter 481 It's easy to add flowers to brocade, but difficult to provide charcoal in the snow.
Su Niannian looked at it and felt that Jiang Fangyuan was really a meticulous person.
The characteristics of each rare type of wood, how to identify it, and even reference pictures are provided.
There are also some porcelain pieces, jewelry with kingfisher feather inlay, and even some bronzes from official kilns.
Although Jiang Fangyuan has not finished writing, everything he has written is very detailed and easy to understand.
Su Niannian looked on in amazement.
The person my grandfather introduced is absolutely reliable.
Su Niannian originally collected these things hoping to find bargains, believing that collecting these antiques at this time would definitely bring her thousands or even tens of thousands of times the profit in the future.
With Jiang Fangyuan around, not only are the profits high, but Su Niannian even wants to open a pawnshop after the economy opens up.
Let Jiang Fangyuan manage it; he's sure to make a fortune.
What Su Niannian didn't know was that in the future, Jiang Fangyuan would also bring her an excellent reputation through the work of collecting recyclables.
To become someone who makes outstanding contributions to the motherland—that's a story for another time, of course.
"Uncle Jiang, you're absolutely amazing!" Su Niannian praised without reservation, her eyes then turning to Jiang Fangyuan with obvious admiration and respect.
Jiang Fangyuan hadn't seen that look in his eyes for a long time.
From the moment the Jiang family fell into decline, Jiang Fangyuan could feel the alienation of those around him. However, because his father was still alive, there were always some people who had to put on a show for his father's sake.
After her father passed away, Jiang Fangyuan sought help everywhere, only to be met with indifference and contempt.
Disheartened, Jiang Fangyuan, after having her hand broken, lived in that dilapidated place.
Now, Jiang Fangyuan actually saw respect and admiration in Su Niannian's eyes...
This was something Jiang Fangyuan hadn't expected.
Looking at Old Master Bai again, Jiang Fangyuan felt that he could help her get out of that place.
Not only did they feed and clothe themselves, they also treated their own illnesses.
Su Niannian's statement that she would work to pay off her debts was also a way for her to save face and avoid feeling uncomfortable.
Jiang Fangyuan intends to spend the rest of his life repaying this kind of old man Bai and this kind of Su Niannian.
It is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow.
Jiang Fangyuan has lived for almost forty years, so he understands this principle.
Jiang Fangyuan is not someone who doesn't know how to repay kindness, as he was able to lend a helping hand in times of crisis.
"Thank you for thinking so highly of me. If there's anything I can do to help, I'll do my best," Jiang Fangyuan said with a smile to Su Niannian.
Su Niannian smiled and said, "Uncle Jiang, I should thank you for your help."
"Of course, I won't let you do my favor for nothing."
Su Niannian plans to settle Jiang Fangyuan's salary on a monthly basis.
As for Jiang Fangyuan's salary, Su Niannian felt that she should give Lü Hongliang the same amount.
With Jiang Fangyuan around, the chances of receiving truly junk are relatively small.
Most of it, no! Su Niannian felt that 99% of it would not be junk.
Jiang Fangyuan wanted to wave his hand to refuse, as he only wanted a peaceful meal.
It seemed that Old Master Bai could see through his thoughts.
“My granddaughter will not treat you badly, so you can just focus on your work.”
“There’s nothing shameful about earning money through your own abilities, and you don’t need to be so humble.”
"No one is inferior to another when they are born as human beings."
"Get your confidence back. You're only thirty-nine, yet you're less sensible than this old man who's about to die."
"Stand up straight, don't always hunch over, I don't like looking at you like that!" Old Master Bai said calmly.
The voice was flat and unwavering, and there was no intention to deliberately ignite Jiang Fangyuan's fighting spirit.
They said the most ordinary and unremarkable things, but these words gave Jiang Fangyuan inexplicable support.
Yes, I'm no worse than anyone else, so why let fate play tricks on me like that?
They cowered in dark, dilapidated rooms, surviving on handouts and begging for mercy.
I am a capable person, so why should I be content to live like that?
Even if I die, how can I face my father?
I live such a broken life, while the person who hurt me lives such a glamorous life.
This is unfair.
He had to pull himself together; Jiang Fangyuan also wanted to see everyone who had hurt him cry!
Jiang Fangyuan's facial expression changed, from indifference to high spirits.
Guo Futian silently gave his master a thumbs up in his heart.
Really awesome!
It has to be one's own master!
“I understand. I also want to live a good life and make something of myself,” Jiang Fangyuan said.
Su Niannian smiled as she looked at her grandfather. Her grandfather, at his age, truly had a clear understanding of life!
that's nice!
Su Niannian came to her grandfather's side, put her arm around his arm, and sat down next to him.
"Grandpa! I think you said something wrong!" Su Niannian said in a coquettish voice.
Grandpa Bai didn't know what Su Niannian was referring to. "Girl, what did Grandpa say wrong?"
Su Niannian smiled and said, "Grandpa isn't buried up to his neck! I think Grandpa could easily be a centenarian!"
Upon hearing this, Old Master Bai laughed heartily.
"Okay, okay! Then Grandpa will live to be a hundred years old, until the baby in your belly is born."
"Watch my great-grandson grow up, get married, and have children!" Old Master Bai smiled happily and patted Su Niannian's hand.
"Hmm! It could also be a great-granddaughter! You can't be biased, boys and girls are the same! They're both my darlings, you have to spoil them equally!" Su Niannian said with a smile.
Old Master Bai's mouth was practically stretched to his ears as he responded with a broad smile, "Okay."
Jiang Fangyuan over there also just found out that Su Niannian was pregnant.
It must have been tough on her, being pregnant and still going to such a place to look for him.
Thinking about it, Jiang Fangyuan recalled how Old Master Bai seemed to think the injury on his right hand was difficult to treat.
Su Niannian said that her right hand still had a chance to be healed and recover to 70-80% of its previous condition.
For some reason, Jiang Fangyuan always felt that Su Niannian in front of him was not as simple as she seemed on the surface.
Her temperament and abilities don't seem like those of an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl.
However, Jiang Fangyuan soon realized that everyone has their own destiny and life trajectory.
Although he was surprised, he did not intend to investigate further.
Like the Jiang family, they know some unorthodox divination methods, but their ancestors instructed that such methods should not be used on their own family members.
Therefore, Jiang Fangyuan never had the idea of calculating her own fate.
Now, he doesn't intend to investigate Su Niannian in front of him. Anyone who can save him is his benefactor.
All I can do is repay the debt of gratitude.
Su Niannian took Old Master Bai's arm and looked at Jiang Fangyuan.
