Lin's mother knew Lin Ran's job, and the family made a lot of money from him buying all kinds of junk. Naturally, she believed Lin Ran's words, but this basin was really smelly, and there was a layer of filth attached to it.

Seeing that Lin Ran was going to clean it, Mother Lin took it directly and said, "As long as you don't scratch the inside, it'll be fine, right?"

"Mom, do you want to help me wash it?"

"Mom can still do things. Leave this kind of washing work to my mother." Mother Lin took the snakeskin bag, looked at it with disgust, and then threw it in the corner of the yard.

I picked up a bucket of water and started cleaning the cultural relics.

"Thank you, mother." Lin Ran was indeed a little tired. He wanted to open the trunk of the car to get some air. He returned to his room, lay on the bed, and began to plan what Lin's mother had told him.

The job in the auction house is obviously not suitable for every villager. After a trip to Dongzhang Village today, he finally figured out one thing.

If you want to lead the villagers to get rich, the most suitable way at present is to set up a factory.

But this matter must be considered in the long term, and it is difficult for him to achieve it with his own personal power.

As for the cultural relics he found, Lin Ran took them to Fang Dahai's shop after drying them for two days.

Fang Dahai's shop has also doubled in size and is being renovated, and he is directing at the door.

Seeing the Audi 100 parked in front of the store, the store clerk quickly went up to greet it with a smile, thinking that a big shot was coming.

Unexpectedly, it was Lin Ran who opened the car door and came out.

Of course the guy knew Lin Ran, but when I saw him last year, he was still a poor boy riding a tricycle. Just over a year later, he flew up a branch and turned into a phoenix?

He was a little surprised and shouted to Fang Dahai at the door: "Boss Fang, look who is here?"

Fang Dahai still disliked the waiter for making such a fuss: "Who is this big customer? I have never seen the world make such a fuss."

He patted the dust on his body, turned around, and was stunned for a moment when he saw Lin Ran, and then with a smile on his face: "Brother Lin."

He looked at the car behind Lin Ran in great surprise. One glance at the appearance told him that he would definitely not be able to afford it. He praised and said, "Brother Lin, congratulations on your rapid rise!"

Sitting in the store, the smell of the old store is still the same. The store is always filled with the smell of ancient wood and a faint scent of sandalwood.

"Brother Lin, come and try Moso Bamboo Peak." This time it was Fang Dahai who personally made tea for Lin Ran. Now they were on equal terms and were no longer partners as before.

"Brother Fang, you are too polite." Lin Ran quickly stood up to take the tea as a courtesy.

Fang Dahai laughed and sat down opposite Lin Ran.

"Brother Lin, I haven't seen you for half a year since your store opened." Fang Dahai looked very happy to see Lin Ran. Sure enough, as he said before, Lin Ran has not forgotten his friend.

From the beginning, Lin Ran was just a poor boy, and he thought there was a master behind him. Only now did he realize that he was a little short-sighted, because the master was Lin Ran himself.

Lin Ran was not in a hurry to take out the cultural relics, but started chatting with Fang Dahai.

"Brother Fang, it seems that you have bought the store next door. How is the business recently?" Lin Ran naturally noticed that Fang Dahai was renovating the store.

Renovating the antique shop is nothing more than expanding its scale, and it is obvious that a lot of money has been made.

Fang Dahai smiled and said: "Thanks to the few treasures brought by Brother Lin, the rich young man took a fancy to them, so he bought them at a high price and made some money.

Knowing that his old friend had made money, Lin Ran was also very happy and said, "Fortunately, I was worried that those items would not be easy to sell."

"There are a lot more people buying antiques now." Fang Dahai obviously also saw the market prospects, so he decided to increase investment.

Lin Ran was not only preparing to sell Han Dynasty Water Washing to Fang Dahai this time, but also had another matter.

"By the way, Brother Fang, there's something I want to inform you about." Lin Ran took out a temporarily printed business card with his name and office phone number on it.

"Brother Lin is expanding his business scope." Fang Dahai thought that Lin Ran was going to sell handicrafts to his store, so he quickly replied: "Our store only deals with antiques. I'm afraid it's not suitable for selling handicrafts."

"You are not asked to be our salesperson." Lin Ran explained, "Read the text above carefully."

Fang Dahai took a closer look and saw that it was Linlang Auction House.

He went to the Antique City before and felt that the name Linlang suited him quite well. It was homophonic and also meant rich materials. It was also very grand, so he used it directly.

Of course, the specific name has not been decided yet. I just called Chen Qi and he had no objection.

The reason for choosing this name was that Lin Ran planned to hold the leadership of the auction house in his own hands so that people would think of him when mentioning the auction house.

Seeing that the topic was getting too far, Lin Ran coughed lightly and returned to the topic.

"Brother Fang, if you receive any good things from your store in the future, you can take them to our auction house to sell them," Lin Ran said.

The auction house itself does not acquire cultural relics, but serves as a bridge between antique shops and individual collectors.

Fang Dahai's eyes widened when he learned that Lin Ran was going to open an auction house.

An auction house not only means strong financial resources, but also strong personal connections, otherwise you will not be able to register with the relevant qualifications.

He began to doubt more and more whether Lin Ran's poor appearance at the beginning was just an act.

Fortunately, he didn't drive Lin Ran out, otherwise he would have offended this noble man.

He carefully put away the business card and said, "Okay, I will prepare it for you."

At this point, he rolled his eyes: "It seems that I have something interesting in my store now."

"Oh? Can you take it for a look?" After Lin Ran was reborn, he had not bought cultural relics in the capital antique shop, and most of the time he acted as a seller.

Today, he suddenly changed his identity and had a special experience.

"Wait a moment." Fang Dahai didn't seem to trust his assistant to handle this matter. He climbed up to the attic, searched for a while, and came down with a book.

This is clearly a manuscript. At first glance, it looks like an official document of the Qing Dynasty.

"Hehe, let me show you a treasure." Fang Dahai smiled mysteriously and placed the book in front of Lin Ran.

Lin Ran saw four words written on the cover - "Miscellaneous Notes on Returning to the Fields".

The handwriting inside is clear, and the pages are turned over, giving it a strong sense of age.

It's "Returning to the Fields", although it's only Chapter 8, and except for the first three pages, which are intact, the back is in pieces.

This book mainly records some anecdotes and strange events in the Qing Dynasty. The main content recorded in this book is the deeds of the corrupt officials Heshen in the Qing Dynasty.

For example: when He Shen was in charge of the imperial examination in the imperial court, his mentor Wu Shengqin found He Shen and knelt down to worship He Shen as his teacher.

Because Wu Shengqin failed the examination many times and was old, he hoped that He Shen could help him.
