Although Luo Xiangdong didn't know much about porcelain and bronze ware, Zuo Yucheng said so, and he also knew that the things his father left them were very valuable. The reason why he didn't tell them at that time was also because the situation was unstable at that time, and he and Luo Xiangnan were still young, so I was afraid that if the two of them said that they leaked their mouths and caused a big disaster.

He was recalling some things about the old man before his death, and heard Zuo Yucheng say to him: "These things are all left to you by Old Man Luo, you can discuss with Ye Zi and her parents to see how to divide them." ”

In this case, if it were replaced by the brothers and sisters of someone else's family, in the face of such a treasure that flew out of nowhere, it was very likely that they would turn against each other, but Zuo Yucheng felt that Luo Xiangdong and Ye Xiaochi should not.

Sure enough, Luo Xiangdong said: "I'll be alone, just pick a few pieces, and keep the rest for my sister's family." ”

Ye Xiaochi objected: "There's no need for this, you won't get married in the future? If you get married, if my future aunt knows about me and my mother, they will give you a few things, and she won't hate us? Besides, you will have to have children in the future......

Zuo Yucheng knew that they would be like this, so he stretched out his hand to stop: "Don't fight, it's better to be fair, there is still a small box that hasn't been opened, don't you want to open the leaf to see what's inside?" Zuo Yucheng said, taking out a bunch of keys, the keys were originally placed next to the small box, although they were wrapped in oiled paper, and there was also a little rust, Zuo Yucheng found a file to file the rust on the top, and then handed it to Ye Xiaochi, asking her to try if she could open the lock.

Ye Xiaochi was also a little curious, so he tried to insert the key into the lock hole, which was a little difficult, but after turning back and forth, he heard a click, and successfully opened the small lock.

It was similar to what Zuo Yucheng had expected in advance, containing a total of more than 20 small pieces, in addition to snuff bottles, jade pendants, two bracelets, and two strings of pearls. But what they cared about most was not these treasures, but a notebook wrapped in oiled paper.

The color cover of the notebook is based on blue, there are two deer next to a few bamboos, and several people look at each other, and they all feel that this notebook is placed here by Luo Dingwei, and there must be some unknown things recorded in it, and even his old man has been mentally prepared, I am afraid that one day, many things will not have time to talk to the two children.

Zuo Yucheng saw that Ye Xiaochi was a little nervous, so he said, "Ye Zi, open it and take a look, see what your grandfather wants to say to you, right?"

Luo Xiangdong also looked forward to it, his father was a taciturn person in his memory, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt that he didn't know much about his father who was sleeping underground.

Ye Xiaochi cautiously turned the first page, there were only two lines of words on it, thinking that Luo Dingwei regarded this page as the title page, and wrote in thin gold font on it: Tossing and turning around the long streets and alleys, scattered and autumnal, locking the chaimen and hearing the dog barking, wandering late at night, and feeling sad.

Seeing these sentences, Luo Xiangdong turned his back and wiped away the tears from his eyes with his hand. That's the sentence his father wrote, although he didn't read much, but he knew that this was his father's font, and it was very sad to think about his old man's mood in those years.

Zuo Yucheng read these sentences, and it can already be expected that Luo Dingwei must have been wronged back then, otherwise why would he write such a sad and indignant sentence?

…………

Ye Xiaochi's car and Boss Xie were separated at the intersection, Boss Xie drove the car directly back to his house, and after arriving home, he was not busy resting, he first called the foreman and asked him to arrange for someone to start working as soon as possible, he had something to do in the past few days.

After the construction site was arranged, he contacted Guo Jinan. Guo Jinan's home phone was answered by his daughter, saying that he had not yet arrived home, so he dialed Guo Jinan's big brother number, although it was more expensive to call this number across provinces, but it was nothing to him.

"Hey, it's me...... It's you, Lao Xie, I'm going back here, I can go back tomorrow morning, that little Zuo over there hasn't left? If you haven't left, I'll invite him over when I get home. ”

As soon as Guo Jinan heard that the call was from Boss Xie, he thought that he had to invite the owner of the antique shop to his house as soon as possible to help him. But Boss Xie told him: "He's in a bit of a hurry, so I'll go back to Luochuan first." I'll tell you more when you get back. But he's been to me. He looked at the pile of things I had collected, and said that twelve of them were real, and the others were all imitations. “

Hearing this, Guo Jinan was not surprised, even if the things he collected himself, only some of them must be genuine, so he has always wanted to find a reliable expert to help identify it, just like Boss Xie, it is best that the two sides can become friends who come and go.

Boss Xie continued: "The rhinoceros horn cup I bought from Dong Qingwu five years ago, he said that it is also imitated in modern times, and it is neither an old object of the Ming Dynasty nor the Qing Dynasty. I'm not sure if he's saying it or not. However, he said that the rhino horn was made of an organism and could be identified with carbon-14. I asked for you, and the ivory carvings you bought with me can also be made. Why don't you wait for you to come back, let's go and identify it together. If you agree, I'll contact you now. ”

"Did he really say that?" Hearing this, Guo Jin was relieved.

"That's what he said, and I feel like there's a chance he's telling the truth. If that's the case......"

Guo Jinan didn't answer, he understood the subtext that Boss Xie didn't say, if this was the case, it was not that Dong Qingwu's level was not as good as others bragged about, or that Dong Qingwu deliberately sold these half-truths and half-truths to them, and slaughtered them as stupid people with a lot of money.

"I'll rush back as soon as possible, you can arrange it first, and when I go back, let's take something together to do that appraisal." ”

Two days later, the two of them each arrived at a laboratory at a university with what they wanted to identify. Boss Xie asked someone to contact a vice president of the university, and the vice president helped contact the people from the Institute of Paleontology of their school, and then the two of them made an appointment, and the two of them came over.

A week later, Zuo Yucheng received a call from the provincial capital of Yu'an, the call was from a stranger, and after the other party introduced himself, he knew that the caller was Guo Jinan whom Lao Hou found for him, Guo Jinan said: "Xiao Zuo, right? Are you in Luochuan recently?"

Zuo Yucheng didn't know why he asked this, but he really didn't have any plans to go out recently, so he said, "Yes, I won't go out recently." ”

"Okay, Lao Xie has been busy recently, I'll go to Luochuan by myself, I want to go to your store to have a look, are you welcome?"

Zuo Yucheng knew that he was afraid that Boss Xie and Guo Jinan had already done another appraisal according to what he said, so he said: "Of course you are welcome, contact me before you go, and I will pick you up." “

Guo Jinan didn't say anything polite to him: "Okay, I'll arrange it as soon as possible, and I'll contact you then." “
