"Teacher Fuβ"
After entering the old mansion, Cai Weilan greeted loudly.
Immediately, I saw a gray-haired old lady come out of a room, and the old woman looked very thin and weak.
"Yo, it's Xiao Cai?!" The old lady beckoned.
Cai Weilan immediately took He Qing and Lin Haitao to greet him quickly, and said with a smile: "Teacher Fu, how are you doing?" δΈqiΔ is okay? β
The old lady nodded happily and said, "It's still the same, but it's fine." Who are these two guys? β
She looked at He Qing and the two people standing beside Cai Weilan, Cai Weilan hurriedly pointed at He Qing and introduced them: "Teacher Fu, let me introduce you first, these two are friends from Jiangzhou, they are experts in the antique shop, don't you still want to find someone to do the appraisal of those pieces of porcelain in your hand?" So, I finally managed to bring them in, and they all have very good eyesight! β
She introduced He Qing to the kind-eyed and thin old woman, and said to He Qing: "Mr. He, this is Teacher Fu, she used to be a people's teacher, but now she is retired, and she has been recuperating at home due to her poor health. β
"Teacher Fu is good." He Qing smiled and said hello, and Lin Haitao also greeted politely.
Teacher Fu said happily: "Hello. The two young men turned out to be expert experts? Xiao Cai invited you to help me look at things, that's great! Come in! β
At that moment, she enthusiastically invited He Qing and the others into the house, although the furnishings in the house were very simple, but they were very tidy.
After inviting He Qing and them to sit down, Teacher Fu made another pot of tea and said, "Xiao Cai, I told you that I have always had hope for this batch of porcelain handed down by our old man, and I will not give up if it is not confirmed." β
Cai Weilan smiled and nodded, "I know." Teacher Fu, have you read the newspaper today? β
Teacher Fu nodded and replied, "Well, I've seen it, and someone sent it early in the morning." β
Cai Weilan said: "Then you must have read the new net on the front page, right? β
"Read." Teacher Fu responded, "The young expert mentioned above is very powerful, and he has solved a doubt in many people's hearts." β
Cai Weilan laughed and said, "You don't know, in fact, Mr. He is the young appraiser who is already famous in the capital!" β
"Oh, yes?!" Hearing Cai Weilan's words, Teacher Fu glanced at He Qing, and his eyes were full of impressiveness.
"Well, yes!" Cai Weilan nodded vigorously and said solemnly, "Teacher Fu, I have invited him now, please ask him to help you with your palm, with his appraisal, you should rest assured, right?" β
"That's right!" Teacher Fu nodded without hesitation and agreed, "I believe in him!" Thank you very much, young man, for your bothering to make this trip. β
He Qing shook his head and smiled: "Teacher Fu, you're welcome, it's just a gesture, I don't know if I can help you yet." β
"You're sure to see it!" Teacher Fu said confidently that He Qing's arrival made him quite gratified, as if he suddenly saw hope, and firmly believed that the other party could "rehabilitate" the collection in her hand and let the outside world recognize it.
"I hope you won't be disappointed." He Qing replied.
Then Cai Weilan asked Teacher Fu to take out the porcelain, so that He Qing and them could do the appraisal, Teacher Fu readily agreed, and then she and Cai Weilan moved a few pieces of porcelain out of an inner room, and carefully placed them on the table to show He Qing and them.
There are a total of five or six pieces of porcelain, all of which at first glance look exquisite, antique, and have a lot of charm.
"Brother Qing, this is all enamel porcelain!" At first sight, Lin Haitao couldn't help but be surprised, "It's beautiful!" β
"Hmm." He Qing replied lightly, at this moment his eyes were staring at the porcelain tightly, his face was slightly different, thoughtful.
"Mr. He, how is it? These porcelains are left by Mr. Fu's late husband, don't you know, their ancestors produced a champion, in the Qing court as a big official, so there are a lot of royal rewards, you see now this batch of porcelain is their ancestors from the court brought out. Cai Weilan explained one by one, "Do you say that the things brought out of the palace may be fakes?" If the royal family uses fakes, it would be too much to say! β
"Impossible!" He Qing shook his head solemnly and said, "The emperor uses all official kiln products, there is no doubt about it!" β
Hearing his categorical answer, Teacher Fu and Cai Weilan glanced at each other, both of them were very happy, because from the other party's words, they could hear that those porcelain that was denied by many experts may have a play, because the other party recognizes the palace porcelain.
Cai Weilan asked casually and said, "Mr. He, then according to what you mean, this batch of porcelain in Mr. Fu's house is genuine?" β
He Qing shook his head very decisively, and sighed: "Teacher Fu, I'm sorry, but I have to tell you that your batch of porcelain is all fakes, and none of them are right, those experts are right." β
"Huh?!"
As soon as these words came out, not only Cai Weilan and Teacher Fu were taken aback, but even Lin Haitao, who was standing beside him, also showed a look of surprise.
"That'...... So I'm guarding a bunch of useless stuff?! I've been guarding it for decades! Teacher Fu said in a trembling voice, with a crying voice, and her face became pale at the moment, and she looked so sad.
Suddenly, her weak body shook violently, and she was about to fall.
"Teacher Fu-" He Qing hurriedly stretched out his hand to support him.
"Teacher Fu, don't get excited, it's okay, no matter what the result is, we will find a way to help you." Cai Weilan comforted and helped Teacher Fu to sit on the sofa.
"Brother Qing, this ...... It's unlikely, right?! You say that so many pieces of enamel are fakes?! Lin Haitao said in a low voice, he couldn't believe that a pile of porcelain that was so bright and upright was all fakes, and none of them were lost.
He Qing nodded and said, "Yes." A fake is a fake, this is a fact, and we can't deceive Teacher Fu. β
"Of course, it's just...... I think these porcelains are very beautiful, and the pulp is more obvious, not like a fake, how can you see the problem at a glance? What's wrong? Lin Haitao asked repeatedly, full of curiosity.
He Qing replied: "I do not deny that these porcelains are well-made, they are all beautifully made, and there are almost no flaws at first glance, but they are only high imitations, not real Qing court enamel porcelain. β
"Hey, that's a shame!" Lin Haitao sighed and said, "I was shocked when I saw that batch of porcelain just now, thinking that Teacher Fu has so many enamel and color products in his house, each piece is at least a few million, and the value of so many is incalculable, and the cash in exchange can fill the whole room!" β
He Qing nodded and said: "Well, enamel color is very popular in the auction market now, and it can often be auctioned for sky-high prices, and there are not a few who exceed 100 million, right?" β
Lin Haitao suddenly lowered his voice and said in He Qing's ear: "Didn't Teacher Fu say that this batch of porcelain was handed down by their ancestors?" Since it is sure that it was brought out of the palace, how can it be a fake, and it is all the same?! Is it ......?"
He wanted to say and stopped, but He Qing wanted to get what he wanted to say, in their industry, the origin of antiques is a pit, many people are making up stories, and the origin of antiques mentioned by Mr. Fu is one of the most commonly heard stories, so it is inevitable that people will be suspicious.
"I believe that Mr. Fu is telling the truth." He Qing said solemnly, "This batch of porcelain is a fake, it doesn't mean that there are no real antiques in their house!" β
"Brother Qing, you ...... What do you mean by that? Lin Haitao asked puzzled, the other party's words seemed to contain deep meaning, which made him anxious.
He Qing smiled faintly and said, "Haitao, don't be impatient, you'll know what it means later." β
"Huh?!" Hearing that He Qing was hanging his appetite, Lin Haitao smiled bitterly, but the other party didn't tell him now, and he had no choice but to wait patiently for the other party to uncover this mystery.
"Teacher Fu, don't be too sad."
After a while, He Qing gently sat down on the chair beside Teacher Fu and comforted him gently: "Isn't there a popular saying now, called 'When God closes a door, he will definitely open a window for you', it's okay, and the bad ones will pass." β
His words were so profound that not only Lin Haitao couldn't understand it, but Cai Weilan was also inexplicable.
Teacher Fu looked tired, and said weakly: "Xiaohe, don't comfort me, I believe in you too much to react so much." I used to be relatively calm when I heard the news from other appraisers. I couldn't believe this fact before, but now I finally accept it, it's just that I have no hope, just think that I had a sweet dream, and now that I have woken up, my hope is shattered, and I should return to reality. It's just that I feel sad that I can't help those kids anymore. To tell you the truth, I'm alone now, I'm so old, I'm not in good health, and I know I don't have long to live, so I really want to do something while I'm still alive, do something meaningful to society.
"You know, I'm a teacher, I've been teaching for forty or fifty years, my world is teaching, and now I can't teach, but I still want to help children who are thirsty for knowledge but don't have the conditions. You haven't been there, you don't know, how poor those places are in the mountains of the west and the province, the environment for children to go to school is so poor and so poor, most families can't even eat, where do they still have the conditions to send their children to school, even if they go to study, there is no school where they can study!
"My biggest dream is to build a Hope Primary School in the place where I have been to see, but the situation in my family Xiao Cai knows best, my wife left early, and my only son is disobedient, and now he is locked up in prison and room, I have no hope for him, and he will only harm the family outside, and his father is simply sad when he is alive...... It seems to be one day last year, I accidentally saw a newspaper in Xiao Cai's newspaper, there was a news on it, saying that a piece of porcelain was auctioned for tens of millions of dollars, and that porcelain turned out to be exactly the same as the one in our home, when I learned the news, I was so excited, I couldn't sleep for a few days and nights, because I knew that if the batch of porcelain left by the old man of my family was also so valuable, then my ideal would be very light and realized, not only to run a hope primary school, but also I can donate more, I can always send those children to college, let them get ahead, and change the fate of being born poor! But ...... "I hope to be completely shattered!" I feel sorry for myself for the children who have been writing to me, I have had a beautiful dream and they still can't afford to go to school......"
She talked for a long time, during which He Qing and Cai Weilan both pricked up their ears and listened quietly, and no one interrupted her.
At the end, she burst into tears, her body trembling slightly.
Cai Weilan has a soft temperament, and when she heard this, she couldn't help crying, hugged Teacher Fu and said, "Teacher Fu, and us!" Don't worry, I'll find a way to make your dream come true! Certain! β
"Teacher Fu, Miss Cai is right, even if you can't do it, there are still us, thousands of well-wishers in the society will lend a helping hand!"
Mr. Fu's words moved him deeply, and the other party's spirit was very admirable.
She has worked hard all her life, and when the wax torch is about to be dyed to ashes, she is still thinking about the great cause of education in her heart.
"Xiaohe, thank you for comforting me so much." Teacher Fu suddenly held He Qing's hand, which was dry, cold, and skinny, and only heard her say, "I'm very happy to have you say this, I believe that there are still many good people in the world." β
"Of course!" He Qing exhaled suddenly, as if he was a little energetic, and said, "Teacher Fu, you heard about me, let me ask you a few words, this is very important!" β
"What is it? You ask. Teacher Fu agreed without thinking.
He Qing asked bluntly: "When your husband was alive, were you familiar with the situation of this batch of porcelain in your family's collection?" Did he say anything in particular before he died? β
"No, I don't know either, I just know that he values it very much and doesn't let others touch it, in fact, he also hides it from me about this batch of porcelain." Teacher Fu replied, "He went in too much hurry, and he drowned while saving a little boy in the moat, and he didn't have time to explain anything." β
"That's a shame!" He Qing sighed.
After Teacher Fu's mood calmed down a bit, He Qing stood up, he turned to the wall directly opposite, and looked up and down.
Seeing this, Lin Haitao and Cai Weilan were very surprised, and they didn't know what He Qing was doing.
"Brother Qing, what are you looking at? What's so nice about this wall? Lin Haitao approached and asked.
He Qing shook his head and didn't say a word, just carefully observed the fan, as if he could see something unusual from it, and after a while, he turned around and walked back in front of Teacher Fu.
"Teacher Fu, your house is very old, right?" He Qing asked casually.
Teacher Fu said: "Well, it's very old, it's the oldest kind of courtyard house, our family originally had several rooms, but now there are only two left." I am a lonely old man, and I don't have any relatives, I want to sell the house before me, and then donate the money from the sale of the house to those children who need to go to school, I can help a little, now I can do so much. β
"Teacher Fu, no! You can do so much more for kids, more than we can imagine! He Qing said excitedly.
"What did you say?!" Hearing this, Teacher Fu sat up from the sofa and looked at He Qing with a look of surprise.
Hearing his sudden words, Lin Haitao and Cai Weilan also widened their eyes in shock, looking at him inexplicably, not knowing what he was talking about.
He Qing said very calmly: "Teacher Fu, don't worry. I believe that the batch of treasures inherited from your family does have this thing, and now the batch you are holding in your hand is a fake, but it is not the original batch, but just a batch of copies of the substitute, it was Mr. Gui at that time in order to hide people's eyes, for fear that someone would steal the real thing, so he thought of a way, secretly imitated a batch of porcelain, and hid the real thing. β
"Is it going to be like this?!" Teacher Fu asked excitedly.
"Teacher Fu, Mr. He's conjecture is very reasonable, it's just ...... Where is that batch of porcelain hidden? Cai Weilan asked with a round eye.
He Qing replied: "I think of it, the old gentleman is a very cautious person, of course he will not hide his things outside, but only at home." Teacher Fu, this is your home, you should know better than us. When you were here, was your house renovated? β
"House repairs?" Teacher Fu pondered for a moment and said, "Yes! I suddenly remembered that he had secretly built that wall, he built it at night, no one knew, I found it by accident, but I was afraid that he would blame me, so I didn't ask him anything afterwards, and he probably didn't know that I knew his secret. β
"That's right, no wonder that wall seems to be so thick, a few centimeters thicker than the other walls around it!" He Qing said in a deep voice.
"Mr. He, you...... Are you saying that Mr. Fu's genuine enamel porcelain is hidden in that wall? Cai Weilan asked in a trembling voice.
"Shh~~" He Qing motioned for him to be quiet, after all, there were other people living in the courtyard, so as not to have ears on the wall.
"Haitao, close the door." He Qing instructed Lin Haitao.
"Yes, Brother Qing." Lin Haitao immediately answered, and quickly stepped forward and closed the door.
Later, He Qing said, "Teacher Fu, we have to find a way to open that wall, and then take out the porcelain that Mr. Gui has hidden in the dark compartment." β
"Well, I'll listen to you!" Teacher Fu said excitedly, "Then what are we going to do?" Do you want to call the demolition team? β
"Oh, no need for this!" He Qing shook his head heavily and said, "We can handle it ourselves, besides, this matter should not be publicized, if you let others know that your family has such a precious thing, there will definitely be people who are thieves, and then your family will not be safe." β
"You're right, the thieves on our side are very rampant, when my old man was alive, he was very troubled by this, but fortunately, now our family is poor, and they don't have anything good to steal, I stare at the batch of porcelain during the day and at night, and finally I didn't meet the thief, but I stared at it in vain, and it was all fake." Teacher Fu nodded hurriedly and said.
He Qing said, "I have to find a brick knife." β
"We don't have that at home, so I'll go out and borrow it." Teacher Fu said busily.
He Qing said: "That's not good, it may make people suspicious." When we passed by just now, it seemed that there was a hardware store nearby, so we could go and buy one. β
After finishing speaking, he beckoned Lin Haitao to run out and buy a brick knife, and other similar knives can also be used.
Lin Haitao naturally had no objection, and quickly ran out and bought a brand-new brick knife.
After the knife was ready, He Qing began to work, and he started to tear down the wall.
As if he knew exactly where the porcelain was hidden, he quickly found the "mechanism", and it didn't take long for him to poke a hole in the new wall, and then cut it all the way until he had completely removed a brick from the wall.
"It's really empty!"
After the brick was taken out, Lin Haitao said in surprise.
At this time, they could see clearly, there was a mystery inside the wall, and as He Qing expected, it was empty, and it was very likely that there was something hidden.
Immediately after, He Qing carefully scraped off a few other bricks, and after a while, the situation inside the wall was clearly presented there.
There was a red box placed in the hole in the wall, and Mr. Fu recognized it at a glance, and exclaimed: "Ah, I remember that box, it is also an ancestral heirloom of our family, but I haven't seen it for a long time, I was still very puzzled at the time, thinking why the box was gone, it turned out to be built into the wall by the old man!" β
Cai Weilan said happily: "Teacher Fu, congratulations!" You've finally found your baby! β
"I ...... I...... Xiaohe helped me find it, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't know this secret until I died! Teacher Fu said excitedly.
He Qing smiled and said, "I guessed too, I didn't expect it to be like this!" Teacher Fu, take out the box and take a look. β
"Well, okay, you can help you get it." Teacher Fu replied.
"No problem." He Qing nodded in response, and then he carefully took the box out of the hole in the wall, the box was heavy, and there was something in it.
After the box was taken out and put on the table, Lin Haitao and Cai Weilan saw this scene, and their faces showed incredible looks.
"Teacher Fu, open it yourself." After putting it away, He Qing said.
"Hmm." Teacher Fu trembled and went to open the box, the box was not locked, in fact, it didn't matter if there was a lock or not, if anyone found out, wouldn't there be a small lock.
Teacher Fu slowly grabbed the lid of the box and lifted it.
"Wow, what a box of porcelain!"
Suddenly, everyone's eyes lit up, and they saw that the things in the box were colorful and dazzling.
What is it if it is not enamelled porcelain?
He Qing laughed and said, "Teacher Fu, your family is the real rich and noble!" One piece of these porcelain pieces alone is enough for your family to eat for several lifetimes, and it is more than enough to help the children in the mountains! β
