Chapter 446

Wang An blinked his eyes and suddenly discovered that it would be better to explain the importance of these things, so as not to let the family not take it seriously in the future and break a few more.

Thinking of this, Wang An began to "popularize science" to his parents and Mu Xueqing.

He saw Wang An take the bowl from Liu Guilan's hand and then explained:

"Dad, Mom, Xueqing, look at this bowl, is it different from our family's bowls?"

After Wang An finished speaking, the three heads leaned over together, and then the three shook their heads almost at the same time: "Didn't see it."

Wang An heard this, patted his own head, and felt that his question was completely redundant.

Because bowls, since ancient times, have been all kinds, even bowls fired from the same embryo can possibly be different.

Therefore, after hearing the three's answer, Wang An didn't argue, but continued:

"This bowl is a bowl from the Song Dynasty, which is to say, this is an antique, it's valuable, and now there are people in the county..."

Before Wang An finished speaking, Wang Dazhu took a puff of his cigarette and asked subconsciously: "Song Dynasty emperor used this broken thing?"

Wang An said a bit suspiciously: "What does this have to do with the Song Dynasty emperor?"

Wang Dazhu took another puff of his cigarette and said:

"Don't you say this thing is valuable? I remember in the early years, landlords liked to mess with this thing, taking a vase or a bowl or something, saying it was something the emperor once used, and it was valuable."

Liu Guilan listened and echoed:

"Right, right, right, I also heard your grandfather say that once they raised a 7-leaf ginseng, and the emperor gave their ginseng team leader a copper tobacco pot, saying it was bestowed by the emperor, and it was worth a lot of money."

Once Wang An heard this, he understood the meaning of his father and mother.

Wang Dazhu's couple actually also know about antiques, but in their cognition, only things used by the emperor are valuable.

Wang An explained with a smile: "Antiques, as long as they can be passed down, are good things. It can only be said that things used by the emperor are worth a bit more money, and this is because the things they use are the best; otherwise, they are all about the same."

After listening to Wang An's words, Liu Guilan hurriedly asked:

"Then how much money is this bowl worth now?"

Wang An thought for a moment, mainly converting the price difference between now and later in his heart, and then Wang An said: "If it's seen by someone who knows the goods, it can be worth thirty or fifty."

The price Wang An said is relatively fair, but Wang Dazhu still exclaimed: "What? Just such a broken bowl, can be worth thirty or fifty yuan? Don't talk nonsense, how big a bump must grow on your head to spend thirty or fifty yuan to buy this broken thing."

Wang Dazhu's words are actually not wrong, because now the national average monthly income is less than 5 yuan, and for the whole year, it is at most 60 yuan.

And according to Wang An's statement, that is, the money earned from a year's work can only buy two bowls... It must be said that this indeed involves Wang Dazhu's cognitive blind spot.

Wang An didn't refute, just smiled without saying a word.

Because if Wang An told Wang Dazhu that later on, after working for a lifetime, he wouldn't be able to afford a house, I don't know what Wang Dazhu would think.

Of course, Wang An absolutely didn't dare to say this, but if Wang An said it, even if it was his family, they would probably think Wang An was mentally ill.

After Liu Guilan listened, she also couldn't believe it, staring blankly at the large bowl in Wang An's hand, wanting to take it over and look at it again, but she was a bit afraid. Wang An saw this, directly stuffed the bowl into Liu Guilan's hand, and then smiled: "Mom, our family's condition is not yet to the point of being afraid of breaking a bowl."

Liu Guilan took the large bowl and observed it carefully again, frowning while observing, and muttering in her mouth:

"Just this bowl, I think it's not even worth 3 cents, where can it be worth thirty or fifty?"

Wang Dazhu on the side didn't pay attention to what Liu Guilan said, but suddenly said to Wang An: "Then according to you, the plates and bowls we dug out from that grave, each one is also worth more than thirty?"

Wang An thought about it and nodded: "It can't be said that they are all worth more than thirty. Those with good appearance are about the same, those with chipped teeth are considered defective, and they are not worth that much."

After Wang An finished speaking, Wang Dazhu said very self-reproachfully:

"Oh my mother, that day I took grain and couldn't find a ladle, so I just took a bowl, and that bowl was knocked off the ground by a little lynx, making a chip. I didn't take it seriously at the time, I thought it wouldn't delay use..."

Before Wang Dazhu finished speaking, Liu Guilan interrupted very painfully:

"Our family has plenty of ladles, why do you have to take a bowl to show off? Besides, there are so many chipped bowls you don't take, you have to take a good one. Look, 30 yuan is gone, right?"

Wang Dazhu lowered his head and said very aggrievedly: "I didn't do it on purpose, and I didn't think that thing could be worth that much money."

Liu Guilan rolled her eyes at Wang Dazhu and said dissatisfiedly: "Taking grain with anything is fine, besides, you can't ruin the good ones even if they aren't valuable."

Wang An saw the performance of this couple and almost couldn't help laughing.

But to tell the truth, Wang An thinks it's quite interesting.

In fact, every couple has their own unique way of communicating.

So Liu Guilan seems to be blaming Wang Dazhu, but in fact, she is also diluting Wang Dazhu's self-reproach.

Just like some people are cursing and losing their temper and breaking things, if the people next to them persuade them, then this person might break things even more fiercely.

But if the people next to them don't persuade them, but follow along to break things, and break things even more fiercely than the person breaking things, and at the same time, curse along with the person breaking things.

Then, if there are no accidents, the person breaking things will immediately stop, and the whole person will be stunned.

This kind of situation is actually very common, or similar situations are very common.

For example: your family is very poor, you are very sad, but you suddenly find that your neighbor is even poorer.

For another example: you earn very little money, you feel every day that your talent is not appreciated, but one day you suddenly find that someone who is better than you in every aspect earns even less than you! Does the whole person instantly feel balanced, with no unhappy emotions at all?

Therefore, Wang Dazhu was originally very pained and self-reproachful, but after being scolded by Liu Guilan with a pained face, he immediately felt no pain and no self-reproach.

Because now it looks like Liu Guilan is even more pained and uncomfortable than Wang Dazhu.

When Wang Dazhu's couple both fell silent, Wang An discovered that these two people seemed to have no feeling for that bowl with a chipped tooth anymore.

Consequently, Wang An opened the two leather suitcases filled with money.

He saw Wang Dazhu's couple and Mu Xueqing, the three of them, after seeing the money in the two leather suitcases, instantly widened their eyes and almost gasped at the same time! (End of chapter)
