Then he squatted down and asked, "Are these the trees on the mountain you mentioned?"
"Yes. I looked it up online. The walnut has deep lines and is large and round. It's perfect for playing with. The key is that it has six edges. Didn't Mr. White say that good ones can also be sold for money? I plan to keep it and sell it in the cultural relics industry later."
Bai Muyin squatted down and looked at the walnuts that He Wan had opened. They were all quite plump. "Are they all six-sided?"
"Yes, I remember that last year, the walnuts I picked were a little different. Look, they are really extraordinary."
Bai Muyin looked at a few and asked Shushu if she had a ruler.
Yun Shudai went up and found a tape measure to make do.
Bai Muyin found a very good one after searching for a long time. He used a ruler to measure one that was the same size and had the same six sides. He paired them together and said, "This one of this quality can be sold for a good price."
He Wan asked, "How much is it worth?"
"Dozens, hundreds, or even thousands if the right pairing is done."
"That's not bad. I'll start this year and collect them every year for the next few years. There are quite a few of them. I think I can make 100 to 200 pairs."
Bai Muyin was very interested and followed He Wan to peel off the skins of them, wanting to see how many they could match in the end.
Yun Shudai wanted to help, but was rejected by the two. She had to shoot a movie the next day and she couldn't appear on camera with dirty hands.
Yun Shudai went upstairs to take a shower, changed into comfortable pajamas to accompany them, and helped them clean up the garbage while wearing cotton gloves.
The key is that you can’t finish peeling them in one night.
He carved out dozens of them and brushed off the skin and flesh with a brush. Bai Muyin compared them for a long time.
He Wan was exhausted. She ate the delicious food that Lao Yun brought back for her. She looked at Bai Muyin's obsessed figure and said, "Lao Yun, your Mr. Bai will not cheat in the future, right?"
"Hmm? How did you know that?"
"I heard that those who like antiques, cultural relics, and treasures are third parties." Yun Shudai was amused by her words, but she was sure that her Mr. Bai would not bother her anymore today.
Indeed, those walnuts are more attractive than she is.
"Lao Yun, I'm going to find a pair to play with. How about you, do you want to play with a pair?"
"I would like to paint if I have the time."
"When I'm tired of painting, I'll take a break. Although Mr. Bai said that few people would collect paintings that have been polished by others, it's not uncommon. Look, I'll start polishing them now, and when I'm in my 50s or 60s, I'll leave them to my children. After decades, maybe I can sell them for money."
"Okay, I'll take a pair when you're done. My dad and my brother-in-law will probably like this. I'll get a pair for each of them, as well as Professor Liang. He likes this one better."
"One pair is not enough, each person should get two pairs and let them play."
Bai Muyin didn't go to bed until after eleven o'clock tonight.
More than a dozen pairs were matched.
I found a good one and stayed.
The next day, Lao He asked Lao Yun to get her some sealable transparent plastic bags, so that she could dry the things in the sun and pack them up.
Yun Shudai took advantage of a break in filming to place an order online for something specially made for packing walnuts.
I also bought her several sets of brushes, hooks and gloves.
These days, while the people at the educated youth site were busy storing dry goods, He Wan was busy cracking walnuts in the mountains.
By the way, I will also bring some dried fruits and other things back.
I plan to mail some to Uncle Gu.
