Sun Wei and I separated from the Guanyuan Market and took the bus back to our home in the east of the city. My house is a small independent courtyard, open the vermilion gate, and see a pomegranate tree planted in the courtyard, and a large fish tank in the corner of the yard, in which 7 or 8 goldfish swim, which is my favorite object when I was a child. Under the tree, my dad and Uncle Fang were smoking, drinking tea, and playing chess.

"General, haha, Lao Fang, there's no solution now~" My dad shouted happily, full of the joy of the winner.

"Oh, hindsight, hindsight, old cow, you'll be an afterthought. Uncle Fang complained very irritably, it seems that he has lost several games today.

I walked in and greeted them, "Dad, I'm back, hello Uncle Fang." ”

"Oh, the calf is back, how is it, are you still adapting to school, how is your health lately, is your recovery good?" Uncle Fang saw me, easily messed up the chess pieces on the chessboard, and asked with concern.

"I'm much better, thank you Uncle Fang for your concern. ”

"Alas, Lao Fang, you are playing tricks again! Okay, Lao Fang, my son is back, and he won't go down with you. Hey, son, what are you wrapping in a torn newspaper?" my dad asked.

"Oh, these are the two porcelain tiles I just bought. ”

"Silly boy, when your father and I collected old objects in the eighties and nineties, we didn't accept this, there was not much value, many of them were broken bowls of stubble, why did you spend this unjust money. "My dad was a little complaining.

"Alas, little cow, give you the porcelain piece to Uncle Fang, your father is uneducated and doesn't understand this. ”

"Alas, Lao Fang, who is uneducated, has he been a child like me?" My dad was a little unhappy.

"Dad, Uncle Fang is also joking with me, don't take it seriously. While comforting my father, I opened the pile of broken newspapers, exposed the two pieces of broken porcelain, and handed them to Uncle Fang.

"It's like, you're not sensible yet, huh. Uncle Fang was still teasing, and when his gaze fell on my hand, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he exclaimed: "Oh, good things, good things!"

"Lao Fang, look at the way you have never seen the world, the two broken porcelain pieces, they will surprise you like this, what have you seen. My dad was clearly still angry about what he had just said, and laughed.

"What do you know, don't blame me for saying that you are uneducated! This thing should be called Ming Hongwu, red in the glaze, peony chrysanthemum pattern porcelain, calm hair color, green spots, delicate fetal quality, genuine undoubtedly. Although it is not a whole vessel, but from the shape of the shape, this should be a plate core, look at the complete pattern, the inner wall is painted with a tangled chrysanthemum pattern, and the inner bottom double coil is painted with a folded branch peony pattern, a good thing, it can be called a specimen!

Uncle Fang's words stunned me and my dad. However, in comparison, I was even more shocked, because Uncle Fang's words were actually the same as the words in my head. I grew my mouth and had a frightened expression, yes, just frightened.

"Show me what you say, and see what you say makes the child happy. My dad looked over the porcelain piece in Uncle Fang's hand and said, "Although I don't know much about porcelain, then don't fool me." ”

"You old bull head, why am I fooling you! Oh, you compare the difference between the two. This small piece is the broken bowl stubble between the elderly, you compare the two, see for yourself. I've been doing literary play for so many years, and I've been collecting porcelain for the past few years, can I talk nonsense. Uncle Fang said angrily.

"I don't understand it either, so you just say how much this piece is worth, right?" Although it was a question from someone, my father asked without showing weakness.

"Seven or eight years ago, when Ping'an Avenue was first built, this was only 5 cents a piece, and later it was 5 yuan and 10 yuan. Uncle Fang replied.

"Ah, so cheap. I bought it for a hundred today. When I heard this amount of money, I felt a little distressed and interrupted Uncle Fang's words.

"You kid, I'll just say you're spending money blindly. "Now, my dad is in a hurry and is ready to start the theme education of thrift and thrift.

"What, 100 yuan?" Uncle Fang was surprised.

"Alright, throw this, wash your hands and go back to the house, eat some fruit, it's all washed." My dad said angrily.

I felt that I had spent money indiscriminately, and I was a little unreasonable, so I lowered my head and prepared to hurry away.

At this time, Uncle Fang said excitedly: "Wait a minute, old cow, do you know how much it is worth now?" Looking at Uncle Fang's face full of smiles, the excitement was already overflowing.

"Twenty dollars, okay. My dad replied casually.

"Twenty, at least two thousand, you know you!" Uncle Fang relentlessly retorted.

"Ahh

My dad wasn't as surprised as I was, but he was curious.

"2000! the least!" Uncle Fang repeated what he had just said, and then said with a smile on his face, "Hehe, Xiao Niu, you also know that your Uncle Fang and I have opened an antique shop, and we have been doing it for decades, and we don't have such a good glaze red in our hands." Let's see if you can cut your love and give this porcelain piece to your Uncle Fang?"

"Uncle Fang. ”

Maybe Uncle Fang was afraid that I would refuse, so he interrupted me, "Child, don't worry, your Uncle Fang will not let you suffer, Uncle Fang will give you 2000." No, 3000, okay!"

"Uncle Fang, don't worry. I mean, I can give you things, but after so many years in the street, how can I ask you for money. ”

"That's right, Lao Fang, you can take it if you like, what kind of money do you want." My dad said too.

Although my dad also advocated giving the porcelain pieces to Uncle Fang, Uncle Fang didn't seem to be ready to pick up this bargain. "Lao Niu, you have also received so many old objects, the child is called picking up leaks, I tell you, this is the fate of the child, this money must be given. Child, you wait at home, and I'll go home and get the money. Then I saw a little old man running out of the yard happily, looking very funny, like a child who had received his favorite toy.

"Dad, I can't ask Uncle Fang for money, I used to help our family like this. I said.

"Yes, the neighborhood has been around for a lifetime, and I can't ask for this money. But, son, how did you buy this porcelain piece, you haven't done antiques, at most you just read a few books, how did you think about it and buy it?"

My dad's question made me not know how to answer for a while, and the faint headache made me feel irritable, so I said, "I can't tell, okay, Dad, I'll go back to the house to rest first, I have a little headache." ”

"Old cow~. Lao Fang's panting voice came from outside the door, "Hey, where is the child?"

He said he had a little headache and went back to the house to rest. Old Fang, you won't really go home and get the money, will you? ”

"Nonsense, I don't go home to get the money, I rob the bank. Okay, I got the money, 3,000 yuan, a lot, the porcelain can belong to me. ”

"Lao Fang, I really can't ask for your money. My dad excused himself.

"It's not for you, it's for me to communicate with the calf, and it's evenly distributed from people's hands, and you will give the money to the child later." Okay, you go and see the calf, it's not a joke to leave sequelae, hurry up and go to the hospital to check it out. I'm leaving, you can get busy. ”

And just like that, I got my first pot of gold.
