Rebirth 13, starting from the big demolition treasure hunt

Chapter 172 Many times, some items may be unexpected to you

Uncle Shen had previously heard that the lion dance props were a pair, and there should be another one. He looked at it on the ground next to it.

Sure enough, near the door of the rental house where Boss Luo lived, there was another one inside a large wooden box.

"Boss Luo, take out the other lion and let me take a look."

He had already seen the basic information about this lion, and planned to ask about the price after seeing the other one.

The three people put away the lion and took out another lion from the box.

After unfolding it, he found that the overall color of the lion was golden yellow, with no horns on its head, and other places were similar to the previous red lion.

There are also some patches on the old cloth on the lion's tail and body.

The two lions have different shapes. I don’t know if they are one male and one female.

"Are there any hydrangeas? Isn't there a saying about a lion rolling a hydrangea? Did you only find two lion props there?"

He asked again in passing.

"No! This is what I found. If there is one, it must be in the wooden box."

Boss Luo said.

"How much do these two lion dance props cost?"

After checking the time, it was almost dark, so he asked Boss Luo.

"Why don't you give me 400? This thing is rare and it looks old!"

Boss Luo thought for a while and then said.

"Okay! That's 400 yuan. Do you have anything else here?"

"There are no others. I will contact you when I get them!"

After seeing that he had nothing to sell, Wu Yuansheng paid him 400 yuan.

"Boss Zhang, what about you, do you have anything to sell?"

After asking them to put the "lion" into the box, he asked again.

"There is a blue and white jar and an old military kettle. Let me take it out for you to take a look at!"

After speaking, Boss Zhang went back to his rented house to get his things.

Not long after, he came out carrying a porcelain jar about one foot high.

"Here, take a look at the jar first!"

Wu Yuansheng took the jar from his hand and looked at it.

The jar has a lid. The top opening is large, about 25 centimeters in diameter, and the bottom opening is smaller, about 15 centimeters in diameter.

This jar is hand-painted, with the word "harvest" written on one side, and patterns of cotton, wheat ears, pumpkins, lotus seeds, etc. on the other side.

Just by looking at the word "harvest", you know that it will not be around for too long and will definitely not reach the Republic of China.

While he was looking at the jar, Boss Zhang also took out the old kettle.

Putting the jar down, he picked up the kettle and looked at it. The kettle was an aluminum kettle with a flat belly. It looked like it was from the 60s and 80s. It was sold in the [-]s, [-]s and now. This kind of kettle is very common.

"Boss Zhang, please tell me how much the jar costs first. It's not very old. You should be able to tell this. Ask Mr. Shen, and he should also know."

As he spoke, Wu Yuansheng placed the kettle on the ground.

"This jar should be from the 50s, it's 60 or [-] years old now!"

Uncle Shen looked at the jar and said.

"Boss Wu, you can give me 150. It's not expensive. This jar is beautiful, especially the pattern on it has a good meaning and the word "harvest" is written on it."

Boss Zhang praised the pattern and text on the jar.

"150 is just 150. This kettle is too common. I'm embarrassed to say the price. This collection has little value, so I don't want it."

After agreeing on the price and paying the money, Wu Yuansheng put the blue and white cans into the big box where the lion props were previously placed, and then asked Boss Zhang to help move it to the van.

When he was moving the box, he felt that the box was quite heavy. He looked at the wood and found that it was not precious wood like red sandalwood or huanghuali.

<divclass="contentadv">The wood is very ordinary. I picked up the lion head and tested the weight. It felt quite heavy, weighing about five or six pounds.

This surprised him. Today's props are generally very light, weighing only two or three kilograms.

In the past, people used real materials to make things.

People who can perform the lion dance well are usually those who are particularly flexible. In terms of speed, strength, and agility, they are not bad at all.

Otherwise, if you jump on the pile to perform, you will easily fall off.

"The demolition area is large, and people move every day, and every day, we may find different things."

Putting the box on Wu Yuansheng's van, Boss Zhang said to him on the way back.

"Yes! Many times, some items may be unexpected!"

Of course he knows this. After all, he has personally been to the demolition area. He knows that every family's life is different, and their working environment will also be different in every community.

In the yard, Boss Zhang returned to his rented house, and Wu Yuansheng went directly to the second floor.

"I just bought something down there, otherwise I would have come up long ago!"

When he walked into the rental house where Yi Xiaoyue lived, he saw her cooking vegetables, walked over, hugged her and said to her.

Her mother Song Yuping is not here. She has to stay outside for a while at night before coming back.

If her mother is away, he will definitely be able to take advantage. Of course, it doesn't mean he is taking advantage of his girlfriend.

When she comes to eat recently, she always leaves some dishes for her mother, waits until they finish dinner, and then delivers them together.

It used to be Yi Xiaoyue alone, but now there are two people.

"I heard you talking just now. Once this dish is fried, we can eat!"

Wu Yuansheng took a look and saw shredded pork with fungus and green pepper being stir-fried in the pot.

After about five or six minutes, the vegetables were ready.

The dishes she cooked in the evening included hot and sour potato shreds, yam slices, tomato scrambled egg soup, and finally the shredded pork with fungus and green pepper that he saw when he came in.

It’s enough food for three people!

Before eating, they helped Song Yuping pack some food in a thermos bucket.

"I have something good to tell you tonight!"

While eating, Wu Yuansheng said to her with a smile.

"What good thing?"

She put some vegetables in his bowl and asked in passing.

"Isn't it the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow? Let's go watch a movie first tonight. I'll tell you after watching the movie!"

As for buying a house on the 22nd floor above the cinema, if he hadn't wanted to surprise her, he would have told her long ago.

"Can't you just tell me now?"

She pouted and said again, Yi Xiaoyue is not like those girls who clamor and insist on knowing the result after hearing the news.

"I tell you now, there will be no surprises!"

While talking, he also helped her put some vegetables in the bowl.

The two of them ate and chatted. After finishing the meal, they picked up the plates and bowls and washed them.

He took out his cell phone and made a call to his father Wu Jinyi, reminding him that there was a holiday tomorrow and giving him a day off.

However, Wu Jinyi said that business would be better during the holidays and he would not rest, which left him speechless.

My father didn't want to rest, so he had no choice but to ask us to have dinner together that evening.

After he finished the call, Yi Xiaoyue took the thermos bucket for food that she had prepared before.

She locked the door and the two went to her mother's.
