Chapter 1477: The Book of Iron
"Great!"
Zhao Meili jumped up excitedly, her face full of heartfelt smiles, "I knew that Wu Di came back this time, there must be something good to tell us, but I didn't expect to be guessed correctly!"
"Great, I, Wu Derong, am going to be a grandfather soon. Hahaha......" Wu Derong also smiled from ear to ear, not to mention how happy he was.
Wu Derong and Zhao Meili both came from poor areas in urban villages, and to put it bluntly, they are similar to rural people.
The older generation pays the most attention to having offspring, especially in the rural areas.
As children, if they are not married and have children, even if they earn hundreds of millions of dollars to live an immortal-like life for their parents, it is useless in their eyes.
Eating abalone bird's nest every day, they can't laugh.
In the eyes of the older generation in rural areas, being able to have a child is the greatest achievement, if it is a boy, it is even more amazing, and two boys are the best!
It's just that......
No one has thought about the drawbacks that come with having children too early.
......
After eating, Wu Di stayed with his father for a while, and then went to Su Qingmei's house.
The older generation of the Su family were so happy to learn that Su Qingmei was pregnant, especially the old man Su, who seemed to be a few years younger all of a sudden.
The Su family had no opinion at all about putting Su Qingmei home with Wu Di, on the contrary, they were very happy, thinking that this was the most correct decision made by Wu Di at the moment.
They all knew that Wu Di had suffered a lot of difficulties and crises recently, and they didn't want Su Qingmei to have any accidents with him, especially if he had a child.
......
"Wu Di, you are really good, let me be my age, and I can still see my great-grandson. ”
After eating, Old Man Su pulled Wu Di to the study to drink tea and chat.
"Grandpa is still young, what is it to see great-great-grandson, and will see great-great-great-great-grandson!" Wu Di responded with a smile.
"You've been tired lately, haven't you?"
Old Man Su asked Wu Di with concern, he knew that a man like his son-in-law would definitely not be too easy in the current troubled times.
"It's okay, grandpa don't worry, you must know that being the son-in-law of the old Su family is not something that ordinary people can do. Wu Di responded with a smile, trying his best not to let Old Man Su worry about himself.
"That's right. Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren. Old Man Su nodded heavily, and he didn't want to say anything more, or remind Wu Di to pay attention to safety, etc.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry, it's me who is not good enough to make you worry about me when you are old. Wu Di said apologetically.
He knew that there were still many people in the world who were silently paying attention to him, especially those close to him, who had lost too much money.
"No, that's because you're so good. Old Man Su said.
Wu Di was embarrassed to be praised.
"Go, I have something for you. ”
After a few sips of tea, Old Man Su motioned for Wu Di to leave with him.
When they went to a small corner of the study, Old Man Su pointed to a quaint sandalwood box and said, "Help me take that box down." ”
After Wu Di did so and took it down, Old Man Su motioned for him to open it.
"What is this?"
When Wu Di opened it, he saw that it was an old book, which was made of iron sheet as paper, and the exterior was made of wooden boards as pages.
Looking at this vintage, it seems to have been a very long time.
Otherwise, who would be thankless to make a tin book out of paper?
"This is when I went to an auction a while ago, and I saw a book made of tin that not many people were interested in and rushed to buy it, so I spent money to buy it. ”
Old Man Su listened to Wu Di's inquiry, and immediately informed the original story: "The content of the book is not known to many scholars after studying it, so the value is difficult to judge, and it cannot be inferred from which period it is." ”
"Isn't it?There are so many languages in the world, and none of them can match them?" Hearing this, Wu Di became puzzled.
Old Man Su nodded heavily, "Anyway, archaeologists from many countries have seen the texts that do not belong to any period or tribe, and at the same time, the appearance of the books is not tattered or even missing edges and corners, it is really hard to say whether it is long or short, so few people participate in the auction." I am afraid that in the past, some cults wanted to fool people into becoming followers, so they arbitrarily portrayed some difficult characters as words to fool people. ”
"Okay, then what did you buy it for?" Wu Di asked curiously.
Of course, he knew that some evil organizations would do the kind of trick of creating their own words to deceive people, not to mention before, even now there are still many people in the people who do that.
For example, in mysterious professions such as Taoist priests and witches, many people draw characters that are different from others, and as for what the content is, only they know.
"I was thinking that you are interested in some antiques, and at the same time you know such an antique expert as Qin Shan, might it be useful for you to buy it? Anyway, it didn't cost a lot of money, so I bought it back and gave it a try." Old Man Su responded.
"Thank you, grandpa. Wu Di thanked politely.
He reached in and grabbed the book, only to find that it was extraordinarily heavy, much heavier than an iron sheet of the same thickness.
"It's so heavy!"
Wu Di shook it in his hand and said, "This is at least about twenty catties, and many stainless steel products on the market may not be so heavy." ”
"That's the second reason why I bought it, to be able to carve a book out of this material, which is obviously not pediatric. Old Man Su said.
Wu Di nodded in agreement, if he was a strong man of his level, it would take a long time to seal the content, and he would not choose steel.
It is too difficult to carve, and if you make a mistake in a word, for people with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder, you have to throw it away and start over, which is time-consuming, laborious and material-intensive.
In addition, the paper is of good quality at present, and it is also carved from wood, and the sealing time is to some extent better than that of steel, and it will not be so tiring.
"It's definitely valuable, I firmly believe it, but whether you can find one of the homes depends on your ability. Old Man Su said.
Wu Di turned the pages of the book, and when he saw the contents, his heart seemed to have been hit hard, and the whole person froze in place.
It's not that he can read it, it's that the words are too powerful.
Each text is natural, as if it were God's masterpiece.
Although I don't know what this font is, the person who portrays it must be very good.
Seeing words is like seeing people, what kind of person can write such beautiful words on the iron sheet?
"How about it? Just with this stroke, it's worth collecting, right?" said Old Man Su proudly.
"It's worth it. ”
Wu Di nodded in agreement, "Even if it's a billion yuan, I think this iron book is worth it." Because I think what is hidden in it is absolutely priceless. ”
"Hahaha, I just spent 1.8 million to auction it. Old Man Su smiled happily.
"Thank you grandpa for giving me such a precious thing. ”
Wu Di thanked again, he had a hunch in his heart that once this book was studied, it would change his life.
