When he was sixteen years old, Chen Du's glasses were crushed by a classmate who still owed him 460 yuan in compensation.
Not wanting his mother to spend any more money, he dug out a pair of old glasses left by his father from the store.
After putting it on, the world changes.
There is real gold hidden under the broken copper, and genuine goods hidden inside the fakes. Old things that no one wants are all opportunities to make a comeback in his eyes.
Others were afraid of being noticed when entering the flea market, but Chen Du picked out three thousand and four from the waste basket; from street stalls, he entered jewelry stores, auction houses and overseas collection circles.
But the more he earns, the more people eye these glasses. The father who had never been seen before and disappeared suddenly also left traces behind the old things.
Chen Du wants more than just getting rich.
He wants his mother to no longer have to bow his head for tens of dollars, to get his father back, and then to write his name into this business that only values eyesight and money.
While others pick up rags, he picks up gold from the rags.
