Lu Changfeng said it was unnecessary, but Yi Anan had some thoughts.
In fact, Yi Anan likes Grandma Tao’s house in Yancheng very much. It can be used as a residence and a shop, which is very convenient.
"We can meet and talk." Yi Anan said, "I can accept this price."
Lu Changfeng also nodded and took Yi Anan to see Old Lady Tao.
Old Mrs. Tao's yard is on Hongshi Road, far from the high school. There are old houses left over there, all of which are independent houses with yards, so it is suitable for the factory to allocate for living. No one lived there before. Now Old Mrs. Tao has lived here for half a month, and the house has been basically cleaned up.
Old Mrs. Tao was sitting by the door, fiddling with a few jars in her hands. When she saw Lu Changfeng and Yi An'an coming, she greeted them and said with a smile, "Two little friends, we meet again. It seems we are destined to meet!"
Yi Anan said with a smile: "I didn't expect to see you in this small town."
Old Mrs. Tao pointed at the house and said with a smile: "Actually, this is my mother's home. I have been away from here for decades. Now I am going abroad, and I want to deal with the things at home."
Yi Anan nodded. She wanted to look at the house, but her attention suddenly fell on the jars in Old Lady Tao's hands.
In fact, the surface of these jars may look ordinary and not gorgeous, but the glaze is even and the color is soft, and you can tell at a glance that they are from a certain year.
Yi Anan felt that this jar looked familiar. In her previous life, she had been to the museum in Yanzhen and had seen a jar there that was exactly the same as this one.
"This jar..." Yi An'an couldn't help but move forward, squatted down and asked, "Grandma, can I take a look?"
Old Mrs. Tao glanced at Yi An'an and asked, "Can you read?"
"Yeah, it feels familiar. Maybe I had a jar like this at home before." Yi Anan said, telling a little lie.
Mrs. Tao smiled and said, "Then take a look!"
Old Mrs. Tao handed the jar to Yi Anan.
Yi Anan quickly took it with both hands, turned it over, and saw the mark on the bottom of the jar, which immediately confirmed her guess: "This is a jar from Longquan Kiln. Although it is considered a fine product, it is also worth some money!"
Old Mrs. Tao raised her eyebrows: "I didn't expect you actually knew him!"
Yi Anan didn't expect that she really guessed it right, and said with a smile: "Yes, it looks familiar, but unfortunately the jar in my house is gone. That year, many things were taken away!"
That year, some very bad families had their homes ransacked, so many good things were lost.
Yi Anan's words really touched Old Lady Tao.
Old Mrs. Tao's family was the richest in Yan Town back then. The courtyard where the town committee building is now located was her previous home. This courtyard was just where the servants lived at that time. These jars were also secretly hidden at that time. They are indeed fine products. They are usually used to pickle pickles and put salt in them. If they are fine products, they will be kept until now.
"Yes, human error has destroyed so many good things!" said Old Mrs. Tao, stroking the jar. She suddenly smiled and put the jar in front of Yi An'an, "Little girl, we are destined to meet. To commemorate this fate, I will give you this jar!"
Yi Anan was stunned for a moment: "Give it to me?"
Old Mrs. Tao nodded: "I'm going to take it out anyway. If I leave it to someone else, they won't understand and will ruin it. Giving it to you can make up for your regret."
Yi Anan didn't expect that she would actually get a piece of Longquan kiln porcelain just by saying it casually.
This porcelain is of average quality. It is a product of the official Longquan kiln. It would have fetched hundreds of thousands of dollars at auction in the past.
"Grandma, such a valuable thing..." Yi Anan quickly refused.
"It's expensive. In other people's eyes, this is just a pickle jar!" Old Mrs. Tao said with a smile, and pointed at a few small ones next to it, "You can move these seasoning jars too. They are worse than this jar!"
Yi Anan took a look and found that those jars were slightly smaller than this pot, but they were exquisite and looked like they were also from Longquan Kiln.
Old Mrs. Tao patted Yi An'an's hand and said, "As long as they can meet someone who knows how to cherish them, it's better than anything else."
Yi Anan immediately said: "Grandma, I want your house for free. I will pay you back at any price, and I will give you five more dollars. Is that okay with you?"
Old Mrs. Tao shook her head: "If you give me money, I will give it to you!"
Yi An'an was stunned for a moment.
"These things are from my mother's family. I just want to find someone who will cherish them." said Old Mrs. Tao.
Yi Anan immediately understood that these things were worth much more than five dollars, and giving five dollars would be an insult to them, so Mrs. Tao was willing to accept them.
"That house..." Yi Anan asked.
"You can buy the house, but this will cost money." Old Mrs. Tao said with a smile.
"Okay, I want that house!" Yi Anan said quickly.
When Lu Changfeng heard this, he became a little anxious and reminded him in a low voice: "You haven't even gone in to take a look, why are you making a decision so quickly?"
Two dollars is also a small amount.
"Look, I have a destiny with the old lady!" Yi Anan looked at Old Lady Tao, "Grandma, don't worry, I bought this house and I will live well in it. I will also keep these jars well. I promise I won't sell them to anyone else!"
Old Mrs. Tao waved her hands and said, "You are wrong. I hope that my house and my jars can meet people who understand them. If you can sell these jars at a high price, it can prove that you are capable and it can also prove that these things have met their true owners."
Yi An'an didn't expect that Mrs. Tao's thinking was so advanced. She suddenly thought of a business, and stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Grandma, do you know how to look at antiques?"
Old Mrs. Tao smiled and said, "You are quite proficient, but you only know a little bit."
When Yi Anan heard this, her eyes lit up.
After the turmoil of the New Year, there are many buried treasures in this village. She doesn't have any special skills, but she can cook some food, make some pickles, and do some small business, but in the final analysis, she still needs to have a strength to support her.
Yi Anan wants to go to university, and also wants to learn a skill. If she can learn something about archaeology and treasure appraisal, wouldn't she be very rich this year?
"Grandma, can I become your apprentice and learn from you the skill of identifying antiques?" Yi Anan asked with a smile.
Old Mrs. Tao glanced at Yi An'an and said, "Why, you bought my house and got my jar, and you want to steal my skills?"
When Yi Anan heard this, she became more and more certain that this old lady Tao was innocent, and quickly knelt down and said, "Grandma, I am sincere in learning. If you are willing to teach me, I can pay the apprenticeship fee!"
