Rebirth 13, starting from the big demolition treasure hunt
Chapter 527: The real collection is to find bargains, no need to be obsessed
"Dad, Dad! Open the door, my little brother is bullying me!"
After the knock on the door, Wu Qi's voice was heard outside the door, with a crying tone.
After hearing this, he said to everyone, "That's all for today, let's talk next time!" Then he exited the live broadcast and walked towards the door.
"What's wrong? How did Wu Ming bully you?"
Looking at Wu Qi who was standing at the door as if she had been wronged, Wu Yuansheng asked her.
He was a little surprised that the older one was made to cry by the younger one.
Compared to a few years ago when she was in kindergarten, she is now over 8 years old and in the second grade of elementary school. She has grown into a little girl.
She is neither fat nor thin, with a ponytail, and looks cute and pretty.
"I was playing with him, but he snatched the toys away and poked me with a toy knife, which hurt and swollen my fingers!"
She obviously came here to complain.
After saying this, he stretched out the little finger of his right hand.
At home, Wu Qi is the one who sticks to him the most. She also knows that Wu Yuansheng treats her the best and dotes on her more than Yi Xiaoyue.
Wu Ming was lively and active, so it was very likely that he stabbed her with a knife.
(It’s not so easy for children to play together, and fighting is not uncommon.
However, when the two siblings were together, Wu Qi always protected Wu Ming and rarely hit him.
Usually he and Yi Xiaoyue would teach her to give in to her younger brother more.)
I looked at her little finger and saw that the white and tender nail was indeed a little swollen and had turned red.
"Let me help you blow it! Let's go to your brother."
He blew it for her a few times, held her little hand, and they went downstairs together.
Perhaps knowing that he had done something wrong, Wu Ming hid behind Yi Xiaoyue.
"I have already criticized your brother, go and apologize to your sister!"
Seeing them coming, Yi Xiaoyue, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV, said.
"Sister! I'm sorry!"
While saying this, he also looked at Wu Yuansheng, probably because he was afraid that he would hit him.
He was reluctant to hit Wu Qi, but he would occasionally hit Wu Ming.
As the saying goes: "A good son is born under the stick!"
There is certainly some truth to this.
Of course, it was just "much ado about nothing". He did not hit the child too hard. After all, the child was too young. If beating caused any problems, it would not be good for anyone.
"Qiqi, your brother has already apologized to you, do you forgive him?"
Looking at Wu Ming, he asked her.
"I haven't forgiven you yet! I won't play with him now!"
After saying that, she sat on the other side of the sofa, turned her head, and still looked a little angry.
"Wu Ming, do you know that you are wrong?"
After Wu Qi sat next to him, Wu Yuansheng asked him.
"I know!"
He lowered his head, a little afraid to look at him.
Although children are young, they actually know whether what they do is right or not.
"Then tell me where you went wrong?"
"I shouldn't have stabbed my sister's hand with a knife."
He thought about it and said in a low voice.
"anything else?"
"You shouldn't grab toys."
"Will you still be like this in the future?"
"Not anymore!"
"You said it yourself. If you keep doing this, I won't let your sister play with you!"
After being educated, he went back to Wu Qi.
"If you still don't forgive him, I'll give your brother to someone else!"
He said deliberately, looking at her.
"No! I forgive him."
Although the siblings would occasionally fight for some reasons, they would never agree if the adults joked about giving one of them to someone else, no matter who it was.
"Then shake hands! Go play with your toys for a while, then wash up and go to bed!"
Having said this, Wu Qi walked over to Wu Ming.
After the siblings shook hands, they played with their toys together again.
Soon the sound of two people laughing was heard.
Children's thoughts are still simple.
While they were playing with toys, Yi Xiaoyue went to practice yoga.
Ever since Wu Ming went to kindergarten, Song Yuping went to Shanghai and lived with Yi Haodong.
They had a simple wedding last year. After all, it was still within the three-year period of the mask, so they couldn't have a big celebration.
Now Yi Xiaoyue has become a "housewife". Apart from picking up and dropping off the children from school and cooking, she spends the rest of her time practicing yoga, jogging, etc. Her life is very regular.
After several years of practice, her figure looks more perfect. As a young woman in her early 30s, she looks better than when she was younger.
The skin is still as soft and tender, but more radiant.
She practiced for about half an hour, and the two of them watched TV for a while. At half past eight, she called Wu Qi and Wu Ming to wash up and go to bed.
On the morning of the 22nd, Wu Yuansheng was hanging out at Wu Yun and Ding Changxi's express delivery store in the High-tech Zone when Wang Liang from the Fengqing Street Antique City called.
He said that the man who used to run a shop here, "Lao Gao," passed away last month, and his family was preparing to deal with all the collections in the afternoon, so he asked him if he was interested in going over to take a look.
When buying things, he must be interested and may come across something he likes.
His view on antiques has changed. He used to collect antiques to make money, but now he has a new feeling:
The feeling of "making friends through collecting and entering the Tao through playing".
Every collection has its own story. The more such "stories" you come into contact with and the more you learn about them, the more you gain from them will accumulate and achieve qualitative sublimation.
Every time he walked into the villa where the collections were stored and looked at the collections he had bought, he could think of many things.
When buying things now, he either doesn’t buy anything, or if he does, it’s definitely something he likes and doesn’t plan to sell again.
Three years before the masks, at the beginning of 19, Wu Yuansheng suggested that Ding Changxi and Wu Yun buy a storefront near the residential area where they lived, to use it for their "official work" when there was no more iron picking at the landfill in the future - receiving and sending express deliveries.
It turned out that his suggestion was completely correct.
Three years after the mask was introduced, the demolition in this city has come to an end, and there are basically no new demolition areas.
In addition, there are not many newly built commercial housing units. The tower cranes that used to be everywhere, standing on the roofs of buildings, are now rarely seen.
The breeding farm that he had previously run in partnership with Ding Changxi had been relocated at the beginning of the year, which made the two of them earn about one million each.
It's nothing for him, but it's a lot of income for his sister's family.
Now they have some money saved, and their current jobs are easy, so they lead a regular life, which is pretty good. It is definitely better than working in a shoe factory!
Wang Liang called and Wu Yuansheng asked him to wait for him in the store, have lunch together, and go look things together in the afternoon.
After chatting with Ding Changxi for a few more words, he left and went to the Fengqing Street Antique City.
In the past, the Fengqing Street was a place where businesses were booming, whether they were selling clothes, shoes and hats, or antique shops in the alleys.
Looking back now, there are not many physical stores left.
There are very few people shopping here.
There are only a few shops left in the antique city.
Most stores closed down because they could not make ends meet and could only do business a few times a year.
There are also very few people coming to visit.
To use some popular language on the Internet, the popularity of antique cities nowadays is "colder than air conditioning."
When he arrived, Chen Guangxing and Zhou Anming were also in Wang Liang's shop.
Compared to the two people I saw almost ten years ago, they are obviously much older now.
Wu Yuansheng simply greeted them all.
"Are you going shopping this afternoon?"
After a while, when talking about "Lao Gao", he asked Chen Guangxing and Zhou Anming.
Now everyone knows that he basically only buys things and doesn't sell anything, and has become a true "collector".
It’s just that the items in the collection are not top-notch or high-end.
Wu Yuansheng also has no intention of collecting those high-end things, except for those who find bargains!
(Because high-end and top-level products are not cheap, there is absolutely no need for that.)
He now collects things on a casual basis, and if he comes across something he likes or that is "special", he will spend a little money to buy it.
Real collecting is about finding bargains. You don’t have to be too obsessed with it, and you don’t necessarily have to spend a lot of money.
"Aren't those so-called valuable things just hype? They are just selling fame. In essence, they are nothing more than things."
This is what was said by someone who once reached a certain level in the antique collecting industry but later lost all his money.
"Let's go and have a look! Speaking of Gao, who has passed away, it's not hard to imagine that when we pass away in a few years, our descendants will definitely sell all the things we collected."
After hearing his question, Chen Guangxing said.
“People do not have eternal life. When we are alive, our things belong to us. Once we leave this world, everything becomes nothing but floating clouds.”
Zhou Anming followed up.
“But it’s enough to have had it once.
There is a saying:
“Don’t ask for eternity, but ask for what you once had.”
He then said two more sentences.
This is true for feelings, but it is also true for favorite collections.
"Old Zhou is right! When a person dies, who cares about other things? It doesn't matter how the descendants deal with those things, whether to keep them or sell them."
Wang Liang also said this.
They are all people who have been in the antique industry for many years and are experienced. When they reach a certain age, they have seen through and understood everything.
I originally planned to invite Wang Liang to dinner, but Zhou Anming happened to be here, and he said we should go to his restaurant, so we all went there together.
During this time, Wu Yuansheng played with Master Jiang for a while.
Unlike when I saw him a few years ago, he also looked a little older.
The main reason why he can run a shop in the antique city and survive is his skill in feng shui.
No matter how the antique market changes, it has little impact on him.
It has been a long time since I visited Zhou Anming’s Folk Culture Museum. Before dinner, Wu Yuansheng went there to take a look.
Compared with before, he has renovated this place, with support from relevant units. The display cabinets, exhibition tables, and many other places have changed their appearance.
Of course, most of the folk items are still the same items as before, but the decoration style has changed, the placement of the items has changed, and the feeling it gives people is still different.
It definitely looks better now than before.
Besides him, there were also people visiting the Folk Culture Museum who came here for sightseeing. They said that the changes in Yuliangzhou were really huge and they never thought that the environment here would be so good.
I regret not buying a house here a few years ago. Now there are very few people selling houses here, and even if they do, the price is not cheap.
After watching for a while, Zhou Anming called to say lunch was ready, so he went to eat.
