The man's name is Sun Ji, his family lives in Yichang, Hubei, three years ago, when he built a toilet for his home, he inadvertently dug up a porcelain vase in the Jiajing period in the pit, and not long after the thing was dug up, someone came to the door to buy it at a price of 600,000 yuan.
Sun Ji didn't know the value of the porcelain vase, he originally planned to go to the city to find someone to see first, who knew that as soon as he left with his front foot, his mother Shang Qingmei sold the things with his back foot!
Although the thing was sold for 600,000 yuan, he has always been a little worried in his heart, if the value of this porcelain vase is far more than 600,000, wouldn't it be a loss?
However, when things were sold, they were sold, and now it is impossible to recover them, and it is impossible for him to blame Shang Qingmei all the time for this.
What Sun Ji didn't expect was that he would see the porcelain vase again three years later, and it would still be a home of someone he didn't expect.
He never thought that the porcelain vase would be in Zhao Qingkun's house, Zhao Qingkun is a bachelor in the village, and the only bachelor in the village who does not eat subsistence, compared to other bachelors, he is rich and rich.
But Sun Ji still couldn't figure out how the porcelain vase could be in Zhao Qingkun's house, and when he took a photo and went home to ask his mother Shang Meimei, he inadvertently revealed a secret past.
……。
Three years ago, Shang Qingmei approached Sun Ji to ask him to build a new toilet, on the grounds that she was getting older and older, her legs and feet were inconvenient, and she wanted a toilet with a toilet.
For the old mother's request, Sun Ji naturally had to meet, the previous toilets at home were old-fashioned cement board toilets, and it was really inconvenient for the elderly to use.
His wife Liang Yuhong has said this many times, he has never had time to hire someone to do it, and he is not at ease without him staring at him at home.
Now that he finally came back once, he had a lot of free time to build a toilet, and his mother Shang Qingmei mentioned this matter again, and the matter of building a toilet should be put on the agenda.
After two days of site selection, combined with the suggestions of his mother Shang Qingmei and daughter-in-law Liang Yuhong, Sun Ji decided to choose the location of the toilet in the vegetable patch next to the old house.
The reason why he chose to build here is that the location here is relatively hidden, and it is also good to dig a biogas digester, if the second floor is expanded in the future, it can also be shared together, which is convenient for the pipeline drainage upstairs, and secondly, it is convenient for Shang Qingmei who lives in the old house.
After the location was chosen, Sun Ji invited the excavator master to dig a pit to build a biogas digester first.
If a worker is invited to dig, a large pit of a few meters may not be dug for a few days, so he simply asks an excavator to dig it, and a few buckets will be dug down, and it will be completed in an hour at most.
To Sun Ji's surprise, the excavator had just dug for less than half an hour, and suddenly there was a splash of fire, as if it had dug a big stone.
The excavator master stopped the bucket and said loudly: "Brother Sun, you can't do this vegetable garden! There are big stones underneath, and you can't build a biogas digester even if you dig it."
Sun Ji has been standing by and watching, and he was a little speechless when he heard the excavator master say this, so he asked the excavator master to lift the bucket first.
After that, Sun Ji jumped into the big pit to see what kind of big stone it was, and from the material of the stone, he could see what was below.
I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it.
After coming down, Sun Ji found that this big stone turned out to be a huge limestone, and it was not very difficult to dig it up.
But if you change the place, it will be inconvenient to drain the second floor when you build it in the future.
Thinking of this, Sun Ji decided to let the excavator master continue to dig to the side, regardless of the stone first, if the volume below is still very large, he will directly smash it with a heavy hammer.
In this way, the price will naturally go up.
When the excavator master heard him say this, he didn't refute it, anyway, Sun Ji paid for it, and he just had to work.
So, the excavator master dodged the big stone and continued to dig to the side, but he didn't dig a few shovels and had another accident.
This time, it's a hole underneath.
The excavator master said helplessly: "Brother Sun, there should be a limestone hole under you, if it is too big, I am afraid that your toilet will not be built."
Some highway builders encounter this kind of hollow in the mountains, and they don't know how much dirt and rocks they have to fill in, and if the hollow is too big, the cost is not a small amount.
I don't know what the situation is below, and the excavator master does not recommend continuing to dig, if the digging collapses, his small vegetable garden will not only be gone, but it may also affect the house next to him.
Sun Ji's eyes were sharp, and he could see at a glance that something was wrong, and it seemed that there was not a natural hollow underneath, but a hollow built of a few waste bricks.
He hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute, there seems to be something down there."
Sun Ji jumped down from the pit again, and after tearing open a few waste bricks next to the hole, he found that it seemed to be a small space inside, he hurriedly picked up his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight to look inside, and found that this small space was not large, and it was only a square meter in radius, except for an iron box below, there were no other objects.
This is empty, it seems to be a closed hut built temporarily, Sun Ji stretched out his hand and dragged it, and found that the iron box inside was quite heavy, and he couldn't pull it.
Sun Ji was overjoyed, couldn't it be a good thing in this box?
Sun Ji had heard his mother Shang Qingmei say that their Sun family used to be rich and big, but it declined later.
For this matter, Sun Ji also looked at the family genealogy, counting several generations ago, their Sun family was a big landlord during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty.
It is also normal for the family to have any treasures hidden by their ancestors.
Thinking of this, Sun Ji also had a countermeasure in his heart, and hurriedly said to the excavator master above: "Master Chen, there is a treasure down here, you dig a little to the left, and then dig a little to the right, don't destroy these bricks."
At this time, Master Chen of the excavator saw some waste bricks below, and his eyes were a little short-sighted, but he hadn't seen them before.
Under Sun Ji's command, it took half an hour for him to carry the iron box up from below.
There's nothing down there but this thing.
Master Chen jumped down from the excavator and said eagerly: "Brother Sun, you are really lucky, I didn't expect to dig a toilet, and you can dig up a treasure, you can open it and see what you have, at first I thought it was an ancient tomb! Now it seems that it should be buried by your ancestors."
It's no wonder that he thinks so, if it's an ancient tomb, there must be something else, it can't be just a small hole built by some bricks, and there is nothing below except this iron box.
And, judging from the style of this iron box, it doesn't look like something too old, and I don't know if it was buried under Sun Jizu's generation.
Sun Ji didn't want to open it, but Master Chen was urging him, so he could only find a stone, smash the rusted iron lock, and open the iron box in front of him.
When the box was opened, Sun Ji found that it was stuffed with a lot of black cotton and half-rotten strips of rags.
In addition, there is a blue and white porcelain vase lying quietly inside, and nothing can be seen except for some dirt and dirt.
Sun Ji carefully took out the blue and white porcelain vase, then took out all the other things, checked it, and found nothing missing, there was indeed only one blue and white porcelain vase.
When Master Chen saw this porcelain vase, he said with some envy: "Brother Sun, you are well developed this time, I have seen it on TV, and the price of this color porcelain vase is very expensive! It is estimated that it can be worth a lot of money."
Sun Ji couldn't figure it out, after all, he couldn't recognize the specific value of the porcelain vase, so he could only say: "I don't know the specific value, and I don't know if it's something left by that ancestor, so I have to find someone to identify it."
Master Chen nodded and said, "That's as it should be, this can be regarded as a surprise, no matter how much it's worth, it's all for nothing, isn't it?"
Sun Ji nodded, the two chatted a few words, and he carefully carried the porcelain vase home, as for the iron box that was so rusted that it was not good, Sun Ji casually threw it into the warehouse downstairs.
He didn't find the thing alone, that Master Chen was also a big mouth, and it didn't take long for many people in the village to know about it.
One spread ten, ten spread hundreds, more and more people know, many people know that he Sun Ji dug up a porcelain vase from the ground, and he couldn't hide it if he wanted to.
Sun Ji knew that this thing was a hot potato in his hands, and he had to make a move as soon as possible so that others would not worry about it.
Before he could go to the seller, someone came to the door.
It was probably less than five days after the porcelain vase was dug up, and an old man with gray hair came to the door.
"Is anyone home?"
Sun Ji opened the door and found an old man standing at the door, and asked with some confusion: "Old man, who are you looking for?"
When the old man heard this, he handed out a business card.
He said: "Old Xie Minyuan, this is my business card, I owe a few days to travel here, I happened to hear that little brother you dug up a treasure in the ground, I heard that it was a porcelain bottle, specially visited, want to see things."
"If the thing is genuine, the old man is willing to pay a high price for it."
When Sun Ji heard this, he was overjoyed, isn't this sleepy and met a pillow?
He picked up Xie Minyuan's business card and looked at it, in addition to his name, there was also a name for Fengyuzhai antiques, which seemed to be specialized in the antique business.
Sun Ji brought Xie Minyuan into the house, and only then did he take out the things after making tea for him.
After Xie Minyuan asked Sun Ji to put his things on the table, he took out his magnifying glass and looked at it carefully.
After watching it for about ten minutes, Xie Minyuan put down the magnifying glass, and he said: "I won't tell you, this thing is really good, it is a rare celadon in the Jiajing period, this glaze and firing process are very particular, if you want to sell, I am willing to pay 400,000, what do you think?"
When Sun Ji heard this, he hesitated a little, he didn't understand what Jiajing celadon was, and he didn't know the specific price, this old man came up and offered 400,000 yuan, then this thing must be more than 400,000.
He hesitated: "Old man, I don't know the specific value of this thing, this price is ......."
"500,000 yuan, if you want to, I'll take it, if you don't want to, forget it."
The old man said.
Sun Ji thought about it, but still didn't sell it.
He didn't know if what the old man said was true or not, so what if he sold it rashly and lost it?
Sun Ji didn't agree, and the old man shouted out 500,000 to see that Sun Ji still didn't want to sell, so he shook his head and left.
If you can't make a friendship through trading, you should make a friend.
After the old man left, Sun Ji couldn't wait to know the specific value of the porcelain vase, and after taking a few videos and a few photos, he left, he wanted to inquire if he had bought it, and asked about the specific value of the thing.
He didn't bring the porcelain vase, this thing is very brittle, once there is an accident on the road, he regrets it too late, or to invite people home to take a look, that is safe.
What Sun Ji didn't expect was that he hadn't found anyone here, so he called from home, and his wife Liang Yuhong said that the porcelain vase was sold by her mother-in-law Shang Qingmei.
It was bought by a strange woman, and it was sold for a total of 600,000 yuan.
When Sun Ji heard this, he hurriedly ran home, and when he got home, he only saw six bundles of money piled up on the table, and the porcelain vase was gone.
Although Sun Ji was angry, he was helpless.
The thing had been sold, and it was impossible for him to recover it now.
In desperation, he could only accept the 600,000, thinking that he would have more or less money, the porcelain vase was picked up, and the money was really put in front of him, 600,000 were piled together, and he really hadn't seen it.
With this money, Sun Ji didn't have any pressure to build a toilet, and even built a two-story building by the way, and the family had this windfall of 600,000 yuan, and all kinds of expenses were much more comfortable.
……。
In a flash, three years have passed.
Sun Ji had almost forgotten about the porcelain vase, but what he didn't expect was that just two months ago, after the death of Zhao Qingkun, a bachelor man in the village, he actually found a porcelain vase in his house.
The vase was almost identical to the one he had picked up earlier.
Sun Ji did not make a noise, quietly hid the porcelain vase, and after Zhao Qingkun's funeral was dealt with, he quietly brought the porcelain vase home, found Shang Qingmei, and asked for an explanation.
Who knew that Shang Qingmei was not surprised at all when she saw the porcelain vase, but said lightly: "I didn't expect him to break things, he should want you to see it, it seems that he is still a little reluctant!"
When Sun Ji heard his mother say this, he was stunned!
He asked, "Mom, didn't you sell the porcelain vase? Why did it appear at Uncle Zhao's house? If I hadn't packed up his clothes, I really wouldn't have found out."
When Shang Qingmei heard this, she sighed and said: "The thing was bought by your Uncle Zhao, in fact, you can dig up this porcelain bottle, and I deliberately arranged it, this thing is not valuable, it is something that your grandfather buried in the ground before, it seems to be worth thousands of dollars, I asked you to build a toilet, the purpose is to let you dig things out."
"The sale of the porcelain vase was also deliberately arranged by your Uncle Zhao, and the reason why he did this was because he felt that his time was running out and he wanted to leave you some property."
Under Shang Qingmei's explanation, Sun Ji realized that all this was done by his mother Shang Qingmei and Zhao Qingkun.
And this is about his life experience.
It turned out that his biological father turned out to be Zhao Qingkun.
Shang Qingmei's husband Sun Jianye died early, leaving her with a child, Sun Ji's eldest brother.
At that time, Shang Qingmei's parents-in-law had already passed away, and she had nothing to rely on, so how easy is it for a woman to support a child?
Not long after, Shang Qingmei met Zhao Qingkun from the same village.
Shang Qingmei has only been married for two years, and she doesn't know many people in the village, and by chance, when Shang Qingmei was bullied by the old bachelor in the village, Zhao Qingkun stood up and relieved her.
Because of this incident, the two also fell in love at first sight.
Later, the two quietly came together.
Because of other people's gossip, the two didn't dare to be together openly, so they could only live secretly, there was no talk of remarrying in that era, and remarrying someone else was to be gossiped.
Besides, Shang Qingmei was still considered very bad by the villagers, and she had only been married for less than two years, first her father-in-law died, and her husband died one after another, just such a woman, who would dare to marry her?
Including Zhao Qingkun's mother, she will not agree.
Later, Shang Qingmei became pregnant, so she could only go outside to hide, and lied that Sun Ji was a child after she was born.
When Sun Ji grew up, he often heard some rumors, but he didn't pay much attention to it, after all, in his opinion, Zhao Qingkun was a good person, and he would not be that kind of shameless villain.
From childhood to adulthood, Zhao Qingkun helped their family a lot, and it is normal to have this kind of discussion.
Sun Ji has always been very grateful for Zhao Qingkun's help, including Zhao Qingkun's death this time, he personally supported him, and he did everything he did to get dressed for the funeral, in his mind, although Zhao Qingkun was not his father, he had already treated him as his father.
Zhao Qingkun has never been married in his life, and his relationship with their family is also very good, at first he didn't know why, but after Shang Qingmei's story, he learned that Zhao Qingkun turned out to be his biological father.
The reason why he has never been married in his life is for Shang Qingmei.
Even if he suffered a lot of controversy, he took good care of the Sun family, and the money for his eldest brother to go to graduate school was given by Zhao Qingkun.
Speaking of which, Zhao Qingkun can also be regarded as half of Sun Ji's adoptive father. This is also the reason why Sun Ji went to handle his funeral, the Sun family accepted his kindness, and he had to pay it back.
It's just that Sun Ji didn't expect Zhao Qingkun to be his father.
Back then, for various reasons, he couldn't be with Shang Qingmei.
What Sun Ji didn't know was that Zhao Qingkun didn't know that Shang Qingmei was pregnant, and when he went out to work and came back, Sun Ji would be almost ten years old.
If Shang Qingmei didn't say it, he wouldn't know.
Although Zhao Qingkun has never been married in his life, he is not a poor household, and he is also a very rich group of people in the village.
The reason why he wants to make this bureau is to want to transfer his property to Sun Ji.
Three years ago, he had found that his health was getting worse and worse, and he gave almost all the savings on his body to Sun Ji.
That's the 600,000.
The rest of the money was left to himself and took care of the aftermath.
Originally, this matter was secretly hidden, and Shang Qingmei was not ready to tell about it.
She didn't expect Zhao Qingkun to not destroy the things and leave the bottle, Zhao Qingkun's move probably also wanted to let Sun Ji know the truth after he died, right?
He didn't dare to say it when he was alive, and it didn't matter when he died.
After listening to his mother's words, Sun Ji looked at the porcelain vase in his hand, and didn't know what to say for a while, and he sighed heavily after a long time.
Who is he to blame for this? Blame his mother Shang Qingmei? Or blame Zhao Qingkun? It seems that he doesn't know.
Did Shang Qingmei do something wrong? Maybe there is, maybe not, she has no choice, she has a choice, no one is right or wrong in this matter.
Zhao Qingkun concealed it all his life, and worked hard to do such a game, but he still didn't destroy the bottle.
If he destroyed the bottle, Sun Ji might not find out, and Shang Qingmei would not take the initiative to tell the story.
