MTL - America’s Treasure King-Chapter 4 Oppose more than
The Lee family lives in the Oaks neighborhood of Secaucus, New Jersey, west of New York City.
It sounds like it's a cross-province, but in fact, it's just across a river from Manhattan, and the distance is really not that far. This is the case with many New York office workers, who claim to be making more money in New York and spending less in New Jersey.
The community is still a middle-class community, the residents are basically office workers, the social order is very good, and there are basically no robbery incidents in the community. As for outside the community, it's hard to say.
Anyway, Lao Mei would never go out at night when she had nothing to do, because she was afraid of being unsafe. It is said that in the rural areas of the Midwest, local residents rest early as soon as it gets dark, and they have to drive for several hours even to go out, which is really boring.
His family bought a small one-story bungalow. His parents were Li Xiaoshuai who had a house, so the age of the house was older than Xiao Li's.
Lao Mei is used to dedicating a one-story house to the elderly, because it is inconvenient to go up and down the stairs. Li Xiaoshuai's parents bought the house and sold the rest because it was cheap!
The house is in the shape of a horizontal T, facing south, with six rooms. There is also a large lawn in front of the door, a big oak tree as thick as a bucket; the branches and leaves spread out like a big umbrella, which is Li Xiaoshuai's favorite in summer.
The easternmost part is an indispensable garage for the Laomei family. In addition to the wrench and other car repair tools, there are also sandbags and dumbbells left when he practiced martial arts when he was a child.
There is a cement road in front of the garage door, which is directly connected to the community road, and next to it is Li's mother's master room.
On the far west side are the three rooms facing north and south, and facing south is Li Xiaoshuai's bedroom. In the back is a guest room, which has been empty all the time, and is used as a storage room. A locker inside is a photo of Li Xiaoshuai's father, Li Zaitian.
As long as you want to sacrifice or something, you can ask for the photos and send them back after you are done.
Between the north and south rooms is a spacious kitchen. The stove and everything are against the west gable with windows. In the middle is a long Western-style table. The mother and son seem to be empty when they eat.
There is also a door to the east of the kitchen that leads to the reception room, and then to Mama Li's bedroom.
When he opened the door and entered the house, Li Xiaoshuai held a large box of documents and entered the kitchen from the living room. Then he turned to his room and saw that the house had been cleaned by his mother. Li Xiaoshuai felt warm in his heart.
The drawings that he usually practiced at home were neatly stacked together, and the wood and brick carvings used to practice his hands were also arranged in rows. Pushing open the window, a gust of fresh air with the smell of grass rushed in, making Li Xiaoshuai feel great.
Feeling a little wet, Li Xiaoshuai rubbed his hands together, and for some reason, a layer of sticky black oil appeared on his body, which was disgusting to see.
bath!
It turned out that the shower gel was wiped three times before I washed it off.
Li Xiaoshuai felt refreshed, his ears and eyes were clear, and his steps were much lighter.
I went to the garage and tried the dumbbells I usually use for strength training, and it felt much lighter than usual. I tried to fight a set of fists again, and it was also a combination of hardness and softness, and the tiger was powerful.
"This is probably the benefit that supernatural powers brought me?" Li Xiaoshuai could only think of all the unreasonable changes in his body.
In the evening, when my mother came home to cook after get off work, Li Xiaoshuai had a great appetite and added bowl after bowl of rice. He kept complimenting my mother that the food tasted better than the ones in the big restaurant. The purpose was to make my mother happy.
Who knows that he is a fiery old mage, and Li Xiaoshuai's childish tricks can be seen through at a glance, "Why; the old lady who wants to coax is happy and promises you to do those nasty things?"
"Don't think about it!!"
Li Xiaoshuai tried his best to defend, saying that it was also a serious job. Your old man looks down on the job of a treasure hunter, but it is nothing more than dislike the low income and low status of treasure collectors.
In fact, when your son went to a jewelry company, he started out with a little salary from Weibo, which was not much different from that of a treasure hunter.
"I think you are determined?"
"Um."
"Okay, from today onwards, your pocket money is gone. Just stay at home with me. What do you take to participate in the auction?"
After finishing speaking, Li's mother left angrily.
Li Xiaoshuai picked up the materials in the study, and said in his heart that he was about to run out of money, so I would use the clairvoyant to pick up the money!
Li Xiaoshuai sank his thoughts and began to read carefully the materials that the Gardner family had accumulated for three generations.
With this sinking in his mind, Li Xiaoshuai watched during the day and at night. He turned a blind eye to the wind and rain, and the heat had nothing to do with him.
In addition to exercising every day, he is reading books, not reading materials or checking information on the computer, and even every night for dinner, he has to ask his mother three times and four times.
While eating, I still have to recite "Han, Tang and Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms..."
Running long distances in the morning, I was still thinking of Queen Victoria in my heart. From 1837 to her death in 1901, it was the most prosperous period of the empire on which the sun never set.
The eldest princess became the empress of Frederick III of Germany, and her son was Kaiser Wilhelm II, who launched the First World War. When Queen Victoria died, Wilhelm II was holding her hand, giving the British Empire an excellent impression of the Kaiser.
Take a bath at night, and recite silently in my heart, "The Louis family of France, Louis XIV was the Sun King, Louis XVI was beheaded, and Napoleon restored this family after the Battle of Leipzig.
They came back after Waterloo, only to be ousted by Napoleon's nephew. "
Xia Huifang was worried when she saw that her son was really determined, and invited a strong helper to help him persuade her son together.
That night, while Li Xiaoshuai was still reading a book, the phone rang. Looking at the TV ID, it was his future mother-in-law Lisa. Li Xiaoshuai studied jewelry design, which she strongly suggested.
The other end of the phone said: "Li, you are a good boy with artistic skills. Prepare well at home. Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, but you can't do what those unemployed vagabonds do. You have to leave it for your mother. Decent."
Li Xiaoshuai replied half-jokingly, artistic cells also need to eat, and artistic cells will die without food. And face is earned by oneself, in America; face comes with money.
"Uh..." The words made the old mother-in-law choked.
In the past few days, Li's mother has mobilized all the people around her son to call Li Xiaoshuai, asking them to persuade Li Xiaoshuai to "return from the lost."
Among them, only Mr. Gardner from the second-hand store, and Xiao Li's girlfriend Elaine have always encouraged him and supported him to do what he wants to do.
For this reason, Elaine's mother-in-law, who has no future, scolded and criticized Ranke severely.
The angry Li Xiaoshuai went mad every night, so he practiced boxing in the courtyard to vent his anger.
Li Xiaoshuai, who was constantly being stalked by good "kind-hearted people", was really angry. He couldn't tell if he was suffering. He said in his heart that he had the power of clairvoyance, and he was the most suitable person to be a professional treasure hunter.
He was holding his breath and studying hard, like a sponge, frantically absorbing the knowledge he was concerned about.
Thanks to the benefits brought by the ability, Li Xiaoshuai's memory has also become stronger, and it only takes one or two times to remember everything. Although he has not been able to talk and laugh, there is really no "Bai Ding" here. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
This has enabled him to learn a lot of good things, and his self-cultivation is also rising with each passing day.
Half a month later, he went back and forth to major museums and antique shops to see real things, and asked about relevant matters. He kept everything he could tell him in his heart, and he could only smile if he didn't want to say it. and passed
In the second-hand store, Li Xiaoshuai humbly asked the price of various goods, and looked at the quality and age of various second-hand goods. Those are acceptable and those are not.
Although they are all scales and half claws, it is also a valuable experience to accumulate. In actual combat, Li Xiaoshuai has learned a lot of extremely useful information.
One night a month later, while Li Xiaoshuai was still reading a book and checking information, the phone rang, and it seemed that the call was from Ron, an old classmate.
Ron is a small boss who does auto repair. He likes to play with machinery since he was a child. The auto repair shop is just a few kilometers away in the west of Lijia Community.
"Hey, what are you doing, I'm busy."
Ron on the opposite side said that the tenant of his house was a treasure hunter. At present, the treasure hunter's partner broke up with him. The guy wanted to find a helper temporarily and asked Li Xiaoshuai if he would like to earn some pocket money.
Frank, the tenant in the basement of Ron's house, is a professional treasure hunter. Li Xiaoshuai has known this for a long time, and he has met him a few times.
"Lee, people are willing to give $20 an hour," Ron emphasized on the phone.
Li Xiaoshuai would certainly like to have the opportunity to observe the warehouse auction in person. He also wanted to have a good relationship with that Frank and inquire about the inside story of the warehouse auction with him.
"I'd be more than willing to do this, start work that day?"
"Tomorrow at half past eight, Frank will be waiting for you in front of your community."
"Ok!"
