Chapter 98 Buying a Yuan Dynasty Blue and White Porcelain Jar for $
Lu Feng would naturally not forget the Yuan blue and white porcelain jar from the third uncle's house. Oh no! It should be called a pickled vegetable jar!
He was also afraid that the night would be long and he would have many dreams, and that something unexpected would happen.
Therefore, after Lu Feng made a plan, he carried a bowl of cornmeal porridge and walked towards the third uncle's house early the next morning, talking as he walked.
"Uncle, I have finished eating my pickles. Can you give me a chopstick of your pickles?"
The third uncle's family, including his daughter-in-law Yu Li, were sitting together, eating pickled vegetable and cornmeal porridge.
When she heard that Lu Feng wanted pickles, Yu Li immediately picked up a piece of pickles with chopsticks and put it into Lu Feng's bowl.
Although the pickles made at home were not valuable, the third uncle still felt a little heartbroken when he saw Yu Li pick up such a big piece for Lu Feng with chopsticks.
The Third Uncle had been taking advantage of others all his life, but he didn't expect that today, Lu Feng took advantage of him with a chopstick of pickles, which made the Third Uncle very unhappy.
But the third uncle really couldn't say much.
After all, a few days ago, the third uncle relied on his daughter-in-law Yu Li to pull back the old furniture from Lu Feng's house and made a big profit.
"Haha, thank you sister-in-law!"
Lu Feng thanked Yu Li with a smile.
Yu Li also smiled happily, with tenderness and affection in her eyes that could not be concealed.
Lu Feng took a bite of the pickles in the bowl and said to the third uncle with a smile.
"Uncle, your pickles taste really good!"
Although the third uncle was very unhappy that Lu Feng took advantage of him with a piece of pickled vegetables.
But the third uncle wanted to play the long game and continue to take advantage of Lu Feng in the future, so it was not convenient for him to offend Lu Feng, so he responded with a smile.
"Hahaha, of course! Your third aunt has been pickling pickles for decades, so she must have some skills!"
Lu Feng smiled and nodded, taking a few bites of the pickled vegetable porridge.
"Uncle, I want to discuss something with you! I have run out of pickles at home, and I am too lazy to pickle them myself. How about you sell me some of your pickles?"
"Hey, Xiaofeng, why are you saying that? If you want to eat pickles, just take some!"
The third uncle spoke very politely, but he was just being polite.
After all, the Third Uncle is a stingy person, how could he let Lu Feng take advantage of him when it comes to pickles!
"Third Uncle, look at what you said! It costs money for your family to pickle pickles, how can I take it from you for free!"
Lu Feng said with a smile.
"I'll buy your pickles at market price!"
When the third uncle heard that Lu Feng wanted to buy his pickled vegetables at the market price, his eyes suddenly lit up.
You know, the cost of pickling pickles is actually very low.
The radishes and cabbages needed for pickling are purchased at the lowest price when the vegetables are in season.
At most, add a little labor cost.
However, in the opinion of the third uncle, the labor cost can be ignored. After all, the third aunt is just sitting around doing nothing every day.
If Lu Feng bought his pickled vegetables at the market price, the uncle would actually make a lot of money.
When the third uncle thought of this, he felt secretly delighted.
"Okay! Xiaofeng, since that's the case, Third Uncle won't say anything more! If you want a few kilograms of pickles, Third Uncle will bring them to you right away!"
Seeing that the third uncle agreed, Lu Feng smiled and pointed to the Yuan blue and white porcelain jar in the corner.
"Uncle, how can a few kilograms of pickles be enough for me? Isn't there a whole jar of pickles over there?"
"Why don't you just sell me that whole jar of pickles? It should be enough to last me through the winter!"
When the third uncle saw Lu Feng pointing to the jar of pickles in the corner, he was stunned at first, and then he laughed.
This jar of pickles weighs at least 30 kilograms!
If calculated based on the market price, it would be worth at least three or four dollars!
It’s almost half a month’s living expenses for their family!
From the third uncle's point of view, it is equivalent to earning half a month's living expenses for a family for free!
The third uncle was naturally very happy and immediately said to Lu Feng.
"Xiaofeng, this jar of pickled vegetables was just pickled by your third aunt this year! If you want it, I'll give it to you!"
"Hey~ Uncle, every family is having a hard time right now, how can I take your things for free!"
As Lu Feng spoke, he took out 5 yuan from his pocket and handed it to the third uncle.
"Uncle, I'll give you 5 yuan to buy this jar of pickles, and you can give me the jar too! How about that?"
"Hey, Xiaofeng, I am taking advantage of you!"
The third uncle had to pretend to be polite, but in fact he was already very happy.
You have to know that this jar of pickles, even if sold at the market price, is only worth three or four yuan at most, but Lu Feng directly gave him 5 yuan!
This time he made a lot of money!
"Hahaha! Uncle Third, we are related to each other! Why bother to be so specific?"
As Lu Feng said this, he stuffed 5 yuan into the third uncle's hand.
Yu Li watched from the side, feeling conflicted and wanting to step forward to stop it.
Because in Yu Li's opinion, that jar of pickles was worth only three dollars at most.
Lu Feng took out 5 yuan to buy this jar of pickles, but he was cheated by the third uncle!
Yu Li really wanted to stop it, but doing so in front of these three uncles, three aunts and her husband Yan Jiecheng would probably arouse their suspicion and expose her relationship with Lu Feng.
While Yu Li was struggling, Lu Feng and the third uncle had happily completed the transaction.
Yu Li could only stare at Lu Feng helplessly, thinking to herself.
My little darling, if you want to eat pickles, just tell me and I will go back to my mother's house to get you a jar!
Why would you buy it here at a high price and get ripped off by my father-in-law?
Yu Li thought Lu Feng really wanted to eat pickles, but Yu Li had no idea that what Lu Feng spent 5 yuan to buy was not the pickles, but the jar for the pickles!
That’s a Yuan blue and white porcelain jar!
Worth 50 yuan!
If Third Uncle knew that he sold a Yuan blue and white porcelain jar worth 50 yuan to Lu Feng for 5 yuan, and that he did not make a profit but suffered a huge loss, would he faint from the heartache?
The deal between Lu Feng and the third uncle was concluded very quickly. Both of them were very happy and felt that they had made a profit! It can be said that everyone was happy!
After that, Lu Feng greeted the Third Uncle, Yu Li and others, then he couldn't wait to pick up the Yuan blue and white porcelain jar and walked towards home.
After returning home and closing the door, Lu Feng immediately cheered.
Just like that, I got 50 yuan!
He just needs to put the Yuan blue and white porcelain jar at home and wait for it to appreciate in value.
Lu Feng did not wash off the dirt on the surface of the Yuan blue and white porcelain jar, nor did he pour out the pickles inside.
Instead, he continued to disguise it as a pickle jar and placed it in the corner.
After all, this era is different from later generations!
If he washed this Yuan blue and white porcelain jar clean and placed it in a prominent place like an antique.
When the movement to destroy the four olds came, a group of people rushed in and smashed this Yuan blue and white porcelain jar to pieces. It was really too much to cry.
It would be safer to disguise it as a pickle jar and place it in a corner inconspicuously.
Of course, just in case, Lu Feng also built a wooden fence around the blue and white jar to prevent it from being accidentally broken.
