Chapter 84: Amazing Discovery
The man said helplessly: "Okay, okay, you all accept it." β
When he went to the cultural relics store before, the bronze mirror only gave him two yuan.
Uncle Liao took out the bucket and weighed it, and collected a few pieces of jewelry.
The man took the money and left.
Susie put the bronze mirror into Uncle Liao's snakeskin bag, and in her travel bag was her precious blue and white porcelain bowl, which could not be bumped.
There were not many people who came in the afternoon, and Uncle Liao collected some gold and silver jewelry, and a total of 100 yuan had not been spent.
In the evening, as night fell, the number of people gradually increased.
In the evening, I received some gold bracelets and gold rings, all of which are old folk objects, the workmanship is not exquisite, there is no value for collection, and it is worth a gold money, Uncle Liao flattened the bracelets and put them away.
For several days in a row, villagers kept coming to sell things, and these villagers were also very cautious, and if they went out and met someone, they said, "I sell some broken copper and iron." β
People also replied, "There are too many broken copper and iron in my house, and there is no place to pile them." β
Some of them carried a broken sack to cover people's eyes.
In short, everyone is here to sell broken copper and iron, not gold and silver.
The news spread to several nearby villages, and more people came.
According to the gossip of these villagers, Susie could tell that no one had come here to collect these things, so there was still a lot of stock.
On the south side of the Yangtze River, the land is fertile, the grain output is high, the industry and commerce are developed, and the people have been rich since ancient times, and there are some old things that have been handed down in their hands.
Uncle Liao didn't expect that the things here would be so easy to collect, thinking that back then, in Gui Province, he and his six sons walked the streets and alleys, and they couldn't collect a few gold rings a day.
This province, he came for the second time, and the last time he came was not this place, and it was not so smooth.
I came here this time because I inquired last time, and this city has been the richest area in the entire province in the past few hundred years, so there are a lot of good things.
Moreover, this time, with Susie, she has recently been moistened, and it is the time for good luck, so it is extraordinarily smooth.
After three days in the village, the things were almost collected, and early in the morning, before dawn, the three of them packed up their things and left.
Then he took a hitchhike to the next place, stayed at the villager's house, and continued to collect things.
This family is an old lady who lives with her son and daughter-in-law, and has a ten-year-old grandson.
This daughter-in-law is very powerful, Uncle Liao told her that she insisted on asking for a dollar a day, and Uncle Liao had no choice but to agree, but Uncle Liao insisted on giving money a day and living a day.
When it was time to eat, Susie and the three of them ate corn porridge and pickles with the grandmother of the family.
The daughter-in-law's family of three ate white rice and vegetables.
Uncle Liao is also experienced, and what he told the daughter-in-law of the family before was that they would eat whatever the master's family ate, and who knew that they would come to this trick.
You can't say that grandma isn't the owner of this house.
Uncle Liao and Liuzi had to endure their anger, they were not familiar with life outside, and they had a huge amount of money, so they would generally try to avoid disputes with others.
Susie didn't say anything, just silently ate porridge, this woman is indeed not kind, but this is like signing a contract, there is a problem with the terms of the contract, and there is no way for the family to take advantage of the loophole.
Susie and the three of them sat down at a small square table with the old woman surnamed Quan.
At this time, Grandma Quan's ten-year-old grandson came over with an egg in his hand, and he said to Grandma Quan while gnawing on the egg: "Old immortal, eat quickly, my mother said, after you finish eating, hurry up and push the mill to mill rice." β
Susie was surprised to hear the child's words, and then looked at Grandma Quan, who was still eating porridge with her eyes down, and it seemed that she was numb.
The little kid then scolded, "The old man is not dead, why is he not dead, he will eat for nothing every day and not work." β
Susie couldn't bear it, so she stood up, "She's your grandmother, do you talk like that?" β
The little kid spat at Susie, "It's your business." β
Although the spit didn't spit on Susie, it was also disgusting, Susie raised her hand to teach the child a lesson, the child came over and protected the child behind him, "What are you doing, why do you want to beat my son as an adult?" β
Susie frowned, "You kid should teach him well, if you don't respect your elders, you won't have good words when you open your mouth, and you can pay it back when you grow up?" β
The woman snorted, "My child is very good, you don't have to worry about it!" With that, he took the child away.
Uncle Liao shook his head, "Forget it, you can't make sense of her, this kid will become like this, he must have learned from adults." β
Susie sat down and looked at Grandma Quan, feeling sad for her.
After working hard to raise his children, who knew that he would be treated like this when he was old.
When a few people had finished eating, and there was still a little polenta left in the pot, Grandma Quan asked, "Who wants to add some to this porridge?" β
Everyone shook their heads.
Grandma Quan got up, took a shallow celadon basin from the corner of the house, and poured the rest of the porridge into it.
Susie saw the celadon basin at a glance, and then her eyes widened, although the basin looked dirty, but she could still see that the background color of the basin was blue after the rain.
Only the porcelain of the Ru kiln is of this color.
However, she is not sure whether this is Ru kiln porcelain, Ru kiln is the official kiln of the Song Dynasty, it is the pinnacle of flower dynasty porcelain, there are very few porcelain handed down, as long as one appears is a sky-high price.
How could such a small village have a small pot of Ru kiln casually?
A modern imitation, perhaps?
At this time, Grandma Quan took the basin and put it on the ground, and shouted in her mouth: "Cat, it's time to eat." β
A thin little white cat came in from outside the door and was lying on the edge of the basin eating porridge.
Grandma Quan sighed, "Alas, poor cat, I can finally eat a full meal today." β
Grandma Quan fed the cat, got up to clean up the table, and Susie said, "Your old man can rest, I'll come." β
She cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, took them to the stove house and washed them, and when she came back, she squatted on the ground and stared at the shallow basin where the kitten was eating, and she didn't dare to squat too close, for fear that the kitten would misunderstand that she was going to grab food from it.
The more she looked, the more surprised Susie became, she could clearly see that the glaze of the pot was azure, the opening was even, and the edge of the pot was like a petal-like shape, and the shape of the vessel was very beautiful.
The more Susie looked at it, the more she liked it, and she made up her mind to buy this pot, she didn't bother to care if it was Ru kiln porcelain, after all, it was good-looking, and it was difficult to buy it.
She turned to look at Grandma Quan, "Grandma, you'reβ"
The old grandmother interrupted Susie without waiting for her to finish, "You like my cat?" β
"If you like it, take it back and raise it, anyway, this cat will starve to death one day with my old wife."
