"Oh, my God!I'll go to work first."Qin Bing expression some wooden, slowly turned around and picked up his bag to the door.
There was no reprimand, and there were not many words. It was as if Xu Qing had never left, but from her haggard face, it was not hard to see that she had not slept the whole night.
After Qin Bing had gone, Xu Qing immediately from the drawer dig out a paper knife and a new book.He carefully put the old map sandwich open, indeed as expected there is a seemingly stamps square pieces of paper.
While the computer hasn't returned, Xu Qing hurriedly go online to check this piece of paper through, check for a long time finally in a site called China post network found a stamp and paper die in his hand.

Finally, when he saw the words 'Very Precious' and 'Precious' that appeared frequently, even his fingers couldn't help but tremble slightly.
After browsing through the information for an hour, Xu Qing was able to confirm that the piece of paper he bought for eight dollars was the mother ticket of the dragon. It was in good condition and was almost a brand new ticket. The news from the Internet that this stamp had been auctioned for nearly 600,000 Hong Kong dollars was what excited him the most.
Don't say six hundred thousand, even make a folded in half, three hundred thousand, solve the problem of the current distress of life more than enough, Xu Qingchang sigh a mouthful of the atmosphere, from the drawer to dig out a small plastic bag open, carefully with the blade to pick stamps, and then caught in the open pages of the plastic bag, got up and put the book in his bag.
Just finished all this, the PHS rang on the table, Xu Qing catch up on, turned out to be on the second floor that let him fix the computer, freely should be a sentence, immediately shut the computer, pull to plug the cord, up and hurried down the stairs.

Although Liu fat man can't repair the computer, but plug in the line boot is familiar with the road, listen to the case in the sound of the display screen suddenly had a reaction, fat face happy bloom, repeatedly praised: "buddy, ok!"I'm going to have to go home."
Xu Qing was slightly taken aback, and a few black lines appeared on his forehead. What sort of mistress training? What the hell!
"This is my little three, something went wrong with you the whole good not set-up?""I don't know," he said.
Xu Qing was suddenly enlightened and said with a smile,"There was a layer of dust on the CPU fan, so I cleaned it with a brush."

Xu Qing took the money and stuffed it into his pocket. He pretended to be casual and asked,"Brother Liu, do you know what kind of stamp trading place is in Jiangcheng?"
Fatty Liu smiled slightly and said,"Brother, do you also collect stamps?"
Xu Qing nodded and said,"I used to like this. I bought a few stamps. Now I want to buy some cash."
In his view, even if the online said that stamp value does not poor, can't set now is also no use, might as well sell cheaper, at least the cost of their college with landing, also can help sister-in-law to reduce the burden.
Fatty Liu fiddled with the computer and said without turning his head,"I know a rich second generation brother. He likes to fiddle with stamps and antiques. However, he really doesn't like ordinary goods like golden monkey tickets. As long as the goods are good, money is not a problem."
The implication if it's not a good stuff not into the eyes of the elder brothers, liu fat on broad, his mouth said the rich second generation elder brothers old man is a famous figure in shanxi coal boss, all say people once put money into digital like to add some cultural background, as long as the goods are good, money is a bastard, this cannot father is typical of this kind of person.
Xu Qing's heart thumped wildly, but his face remained calm. He smiled and said,"To be honest with Brother Liu, my stamp is really much more valuable than the monkey ticket. If your buddy is willing to pay, he will definitely be surprised."
"Oh!" she said.Liu fat man put down the mouse, turned around and looked at Xu Qing face suspicious and said: "really?You don't want to lose a big one, you say that stamp is what?"
"Brand new dragon stamp, the image will last forever."Xu Qing not best not fire out of the ten characters, liu fatty face fat suddenly shake a shake, though he didn't what research on stamps, but dragon stamp title as long as a little some knowledge of Chinese people all know.
"Dude, are you sure it's a big dragon stamp?"Fatty Liu's eyes lit up as he asked in disbelief. Seeing Xu Qing nod, he immediately picked up his phone and pressed a series of numbers.
The phone was connected, and a muffled voice came from the other end: "Damn, why are you making so much noise in the morning?"The owner of the voice was clearly still struggling on the bed, complaining.
Fatty Liu was full of confidence and shouted into the phone,"It's not me looking for you, it's the brand new Dragon Stamp looking for you."
"F * ck, I'm full of food," cursed Du Du
"Well, maybe he already has this stamp, so I'll go up first."Xu Qing saw that Fatty Liu was not interested and did not want to stay here. He had to clean up the corridor of the rental house later. As for Fatty Liu's words about the rich second generation, he did not take it to heart.
