492 The root needs to be found from the ancestors
Yang Xuantong is just the one who solves the matter, although he also has pressure in this matter, he is not as big as Mr. Su and Qiao Guodong, and the meal at noon is still very good.
I contacted the family, and it will take at least two or three days to delay here, or it may be more, so that everyone can worry, especially Xiao Tongtong. This time it can be regarded as playing secretly by himself, and the little guy will be angry.
came to the house where the old man of the Su family lived and took a look at it, he can be regarded as the oldest member of the Su family. Although the old man's spirit is very good, his aura is not very good. Qiao Guodong's judgment was not bad, and the deadline was approaching.
I also took a look here, there is no problem with the house, the Ming Hall is spacious, there is protection on the left and right, there is a back, and the house is well-behaved. Now it can be concluded that the situation here is due to people.
"Old man, do you remember what your elders told you when you were a child?" Coming to the old man's room, Yang Xuantong asked with a chuckle.
He didn't have that skill, and he knew at a glance what had happened to the ancestors of the Su family. This matter has to be found by their ancestors, so that this old man has come back to the light, maybe it is the glimmer of life left.
The old man kept smiling, and after hearing Yang Xuantong's question, he glanced at him and nodded at him, "I know that my limit is approaching, and it is time for me to live to this age." ”
"Sir, I know what you want to ask. Although our ancestors were wealthy, they were not the landlords or pickpockets who should be criticized. Counting forward, life is not easy. In a disaster year, our family has never urged rent. ”
"I like guns when I was a child, I have killed devils and bandits, and I admire Zhang Dashuai the most. Therefore, the ancestors of our family have never done anything lacking in morality, and the style of the door is also passed down from the ancestors. ”
Yang Xuantong smiled and nodded, it seems that the old man has really experienced some things and understands his intentions.
"Old man, have you heard of how you started a business?" Yang Xuantong asked again.
"I have to think about it, I think I heard my grandfather talk about it when I was a child." The old man frowned and said.
I picked up the cigarette pouch and pot on the side, grabbed a handful of dry tobacco leaves, lit the match and smoked it.
"I don't remember exactly, it seems that I used to be a craftsman, so it should be about the same. The craftsman was not welcomed, and he used to be a petty official, which saved some surplus wealth for the family. ”
Listening to the old man's words, Yang Xuantong sighed, there is not much useful information.
According to the old man's words, their door style is good. If you push forward, you are a craftsman, and you can't do anything harmful.
The old man was the only one who could give him some clues, and the clues provided now were of little use. They still don't know what their ancestors did.
Inadvertently, he looked at the cigarette pouch and pot where the old man was smoking, and was stunned for a moment.
"Haha, the little gentleman has eyesight. This was circulated in the palace at the beginning, and someone wanted to collect it from me a few years ago, but I didn't sell it. This is the only object left by the ancestors, and I can't bear it. The old man laughed and said with emotion.
"Old man, after you smoke, can you let me take a look?" Yang Xuantong nodded with a smile and asked.
"What's this, you won't rob it for me." The old man also quipped.
The young man of the Su family on the side frowned, there are still things to be solved here, what kind of cigarette pouch are you looking at here? It's only right to find a problem quickly.
It's just that even if he is anxious, Yang Xuantong is talking to the old man here, at most he shows something on his face, and he doesn't interfere with anything.
"It's really a nice object, I almost lost my eyes just now, and the smoke pot turned out to be golden. The carved pattern on the pole is also very good, and the cigarette holder of Hetian Yu is indeed an old object. After the old man finished smoking, Yang Xuantong took the cigarette pouch and pot in his hand and looked at it carefully before saying.
Just now he thought that this smoke pot was copper, probably because ancient gold was not as pure as modern gold, and the old man didn't pay too much attention to it when he usually used it, or he deliberately saved others from worrying. Anyway, this cigarette pouch pot is also a good object, the craftsmanship is very good, and it can also have some value in antiques.
What he paid particular attention to was the openwork brass engraving that was wrapped around the cigarette stick. It seems to be just an ordinary pattern, if you look carefully, you can find that it is actually two words, "Su" and "made" in traditional Chinese.
The old man said that their ancestors were craftsmen, and these two words came out on it, I'm afraid that this cigarette pouch pot really has some origin. Maybe it was made by their ancestors and then passed it on.
This can also be regarded as a proof of what the old man just said, proving that the old man is not bad at all. And it should be a little modest, I'm afraid it's not just a small official, but a big official.
A petty official can't use so much gold, and he can't use such a good cigarette holder. Even in that era, the price of jade was not affordable for small households, not to mention that this cigarette holder was still Hetian jade with good texture.
Handing the cigarette pouch and pot back to the old man, Yang Xuantong walked outside. He wanted to see if there was anything else to be found in this courtyard. If you can guess the work of his ancestors, he can also have a direction.
Unfortunately, though, there is nothing in the yard. It's all modern things, and it also frustrated his little idea.
"Is Master Yang a little eyebrow-raising?" Qiao Guodong, who had been waiting outside the courtyard, hurriedly asked when he saw Yang Xuantong coming out.
"A little bit, it should have something to do with the profession of the man who made his fortune in his ancestors. I just thought a little badly, in fact, a craftsman can also harm others, even if he may have been unintentionally hurt in the first place. Yang Xuantong nodded and said.
"Don't mind, young man, we're just a guess at the moment. Many dynasties will have some large-scale projects, such as the Great Wall built by the Qin Dynasty and the canal of the Sui Dynasty, which were all projects that caused countless harms at that time, but now it will be enjoyed by future generations. ”
"In such a project, because of the lack of certain skills, many times rely on manpower, and there will be some dangers that cannot be avoided. If your ancestors happen to be involved in a certain project, and there is an accident, I am afraid that those people in the beginning will be attributed to your ancestors. ”
"It doesn't matter if what they did was right or wrong, those people don't think about it, they just complain about the people who are in charge before they die."
