Chapter 617 High Porcelain
For the three people to come back, the villagers here seemed to be particularly happy.
It turned out that since they didn't come back last night, the search for them began here, but they were not found all night, and they were mistakenly thought to have been eaten by wild beasts. But fortunately, the three of them finally returned, which also made the villagers' hanging hearts completely relaxed.
Although they had been in a tense state when they were on the mountain, because of the appearance of the man and the tiger beside him, the three of them had a good night's sleep, and they were in good spirits at this time.
Su Yuelan is responsible for the main content of handing over some simple treasure appreciation to the children here, in addition to that, she almost acts as an English and music teacher.
Although Zhao Ming doesn't know anything about treasure appreciation in everyone's eyes, almost everyone will say that he is good when he gets along with people. No, on the third day of his visit, he was invited to the villager's house.
However, an object placed in the corner completely caught his eye. It looked out of place with everything in the room. And there was hardly a single thing intact in this dilapidated room, except for the one placed in the corner, and from a distance, it was found that it was missing a corner.
"This ...... What are you doing with this thing??" Zhao Ming carefully held the small thing placed in the corner in his hand, looked at it intently, and asked suspiciously.
The texture around it is very peculiar, and it is as white as the white clouds in the sky, which looks particularly good. Stretching out your hand and slowly stroking it according to its lines, you find that it is not only very comfortable, but also as light as a few pieces of paper.
This high porcelain Zhao Ming has seen in related books, from the Tang Dynasty, and its price is also ridiculously high. The main thing is that his approach is different, even if it is a flawed ceramic, it is not expensive in terms of price when it comes to getting it now.
However, it is really strange that such a valuable thing actually appeared in this villager's house. Moreover, they obviously didn't care much about where they were placed, and it was clear that they didn't know where it came from.
The villager smiled and said indifferently, "This, this is useless. It was dug up on that mountain a long time ago, and it has been kept here since it was beautiful. But a while ago, the child of the family accidentally fell to the ground, which caused a corner to break on the edge of this bowl. ”
The villagers had no idea that this high porcelain was from ancient times, and they thought it was just a bowl from beginning to end.
"This ......" Zhao Ming still held it in his hand carefully, for fear of falling him. I couldn't help but feel a little funny, such an expensive high porcelain, he actually thought it was just a bowl.
Indeed, even some people living in the city can't tell these things, let alone the villagers who live in the mountains, and they don't know anything about these things. It's no wonder that he put it in this corner, not to keep it well.
Zhao Ming's face was a little serious, which seemed to the villagers, Zhao Ming's sudden seriousness must have something to do with this bowl, thinking that since he picked up this bowl, the family has not been peaceful, and the villagers mistakenly thought that there was something wrong with this "bowl".
"What's wrong with this bowl??" The villager's face panicked, and he involuntarily took a few steps back.
"What do you mean by that??" He could tell the nervousness and regret in the villagers' words, and judging by his behavior, he seemed to be a little afraid of the high porcelain.
He couldn't figure out what his sudden move was.
The villager patted his legs remorsefully, sat down on the ground with a painful face, wiped his eyes full of tears, and slowed down for a while.
"Since I had this bowl, things big and small have started to happen in my family, and I have hardly been at peace anymore. I quarreled with my family for this, but I couldn't bear to throw it away and put it at home to pray for a better life in the future. But this day is beginning to develop day by day, if it weren't for your appearance today, and you found this "bowl", I'm afraid I don't know when I will put it here and wait until I throw it away. ”
"This "bowl" looks good, but in fact it has ruined my family!!" The villagers glared angrily at the high porcelain in Zhao Ming's hand. Suddenly, he got up and began to fight, "This, no matter what I say today, I will break it to pieces, and I must not let it continue to harm people!!"
Zhao Ming resolutely refused to let go, and patiently persuaded, "You calm down, things are not as complicated as you think." And how could it be possible to ruin your family??"
Although this thing comes from ancient times and has a long time, it is absolutely impossible for the villagers to say that all this is caused by this high porcelain. The reason why all this happened is probably that God has already arranged it.
The villager held on to the high porcelain firmly, and said angrily with emotion: "How can it be that it doesn't matter??Since I picked it up, the house has never been peaceful, if it's not his employee, then why??"
"Then before you pick it up, the house is really as peaceful as you imagined??"
By Zhao Ming's sudden words, the villagers paused. Thinking back to the time he lived here, his life had hardly ever been peaceful, both before and after he picked it up.
When Zhao Ming said this, his hand holding the high porcelain firmly let go slowly, and now he sat directly on the tattered chair on the side, sighing. "Indeed, as you say, this family has never been at peace. I don't know what I did wrong in my last life to punish me like this. ”
Zhao Ming put the high porcelain aside, sat beside the villagers unhurriedly, and asked a question: "Do you know that there is a saying that says that first bitter and then sweet, first sweet and then bitter." Your life is to be bitter first, and it will definitely come back sweet in the future. ”
"I hope so. Listening to the tone of the villagers, it didn't seem to be expecting anymore.
What the other party thinks, Zhao Ming has no right to ask.
However, the villagers have always said that this was picked up, so where did he pick it up from??
"Where did you get this 'bowl'?"
Like something difficult to cut their teeth, the villagers' faces were embarrassed and hesitant to say it.
Zhao Ming saw his embarrassment, and didn't force him, "If I don't want to say it, I don't want to talk to you." "Everyone has their own unspeakable secrets, and he understands them very well. It's like him, he's a treasure connoisseur, but because of something, he can't tell anyone about this fact.
And he was mistaken for thinking that he didn't understand anything about it, and that no one looked up to him.
The villager hesitated for a long time, but finally said, "This is the bowl, it was picked up from a dead man's pile on the mountain that time." At that time, I saw that it was so good-looking, and I brought it back to him for a while. ”
"Pile of dead people??" Zhao Ming felt very absurd when he heard this word, what era is this, there are still dead people's piles??
"This was used to bury the dead before the reform was opened up, and after the reform and opening up, it was closed as a forbidden land, and with the change of time, a lot of fruit trees were planted there. The last time I went to pick the fruit when it was ripe, I saw this bowl and brought it back. ”
Zhao Ming looked at the high porcelain in his hand, and was called "bowl" by the villagers one after another, and couldn't help laughing, and explained very solemnly: "To be precise, this is not a bowl, but a high porcelain from the Tang Dynasty." ”
"What kind of high porcelain???What is this??" The villagers frowned, unable to understand what Zhao Ming said.
"To put it simply, the cultural relics handed down from ancient times have become more and more precious with the passage of time. And what is now placed in your home is not something evil, but high porcelain from ancient times. If kept properly and over time, it will only grow in value. ”
"Is this really as precious as you say??" The villager apparently didn't believe it, he had always thought it was just a delicate thing that didn't actually have any use.
He took the tall porcelain in his hand and looked back and forth, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see why.
In order to make him believe, Zhao Ming suggested: "It's really as precious as I said!!" If you don't believe it, you can find a local treasure connoisseur to take a look, and I believe they will definitely give you a satisfactory answer." ”
All the way to this sentence, the villagers immediately believed it, and a smile on his sad face disappeared, and he said very happily: "Sure enough, people from the city know even these things." If it falls into the hands of us laymen, this good treasure may disappear from this world. ”
Zhao Ming also understood what he meant, after all, when he didn't know that this was a treasure, he must have discarded it at will, and besides, such a fragile thing was likely to be shattered.
Although the villagers believed him, he was more concerned about how much money he could sell for now.
"If I sell it now, how much will it be worth?" It's not that he has no choice but to sell it at all.
"Now??" Zhao Ming was slightly stunned, he saw that he liked this thing so much from the beginning, he thought that he would collect it well, but he didn't expect his sudden words to shock him a little.
"If you really want to take it, it's worth about 50,000 yuan, but you are missing a corner on this side, and the price will be much lower. But I think you should keep something of such value, and it will appreciate over time. Zhao Ming suggested.
"I know all of this, but I still want to sell it. ”
Zhao Ming's good-looking sword eyebrows frowned, "Are you sure you're going to sell it now that you're in such a hurry?"
"My family is so poor, how can it be properly kept? ”
Although Zhao Ming understood the reason why he wanted to sell it, it was a pity that such a valuable thing was not left at home.
"In that case, take me to the local pawnshop or treasure connoisseur, and if you have any questions, maybe I can do you a favor. "If he hadn't gone with him, there was a good chance that he would have been deceived with the villagers' knowledge of them.
"It's an hour's drive and you're in this small town in the city, where there's a pawnshop and it specializes in collecting antiques and stuff. ”
