This is Yuyue, sell it to me for 20,000 yuan!
The words of the man in front of her made Zhang Xiaomin stunned directly, she couldn't believe it, how could a whetstone she picked up by chopping sugarcane be so valuable.
After calming down, Zhang Xiaomin rejected the man, because she knew that if the whetstone was really what the man said, it must be more than this price.
So what is the origin of this whetstone, and what will Zhang Xiaomin eventually do with the whetstone?
Unexpected Treasure
Zhang Xiaomin is a typical rural woman, whether it is her own mother's family or her husband's family, they are all peasant families, but the conditions of her husband's family are slightly better, and they are planted with sugarcane, and they can be sold directly to the market every year when the sugarcane is ripe.
In the late autumn of this year, the sugarcane in the field was almost ripe, and it was time to cut the sugarcane, but Zhang Xiaomin's husband Huang Daman accidentally flashed his waist and was sick in bed, and the heavy responsibility of cutting sugarcane could only be handed over to Zhang Xiaomin.
Although in previous years, Huang Daman cut sugarcane and was responsible for selling it himself, and he had not cut it himself, but after seeing a lot, Zhang Xiaomin was also very handy in cutting sugarcane.
I have to say that this cutting sugarcane is really a laborious job, but today Zhang Xiaomin doesn't have to cut too much, as long as he cuts enough to sell in the afternoon, and soon, Zhang Xiaomin will end cutting sugarcane.
After sorting out the sugarcane, Zhang Xiaomin went to the side of the stream to wash his hands, his hands were covered with mud, and as soon as he walked to the stream, Zhang Xiaomin found a green slate.
Out of curiosity, she held it in her hand and played with it, it looked like a whetstone, but there were patterns on it, Zhang Xiaomin didn't graduate from elementary school, where can you see what this is.
At this moment, her heart has used this stone as a whetstone, she can't help but take out the knife to chop sugar cane, try it by the stream, it is very useful, this whetstone for nothing, although it is not valuable, but her heart is still very happy.
After washing his hands, Zhang Xiaomin left the sugarcane field. When she got home, she also showed off this whetstone to Huang Daman, saying that it was very easy to use.
However, Huang Daman was obviously not so interested in this whetstone, and quipped: "Isn't it just a stone, what is there to be happy about, what stone can't be sharpened!"
What her husband said also made sense, but Zhang Xiaomin still recognized the whetstone, and after eating at noon, she went to the market to sell sugar cane, and carried the whetstone with her.
Although it was already late autumn, the sun at noon was particularly dazzling, and there were not many people in the market, so Zhang Xiaomin took out the whetstone and sharpened the machete on the side.
From time to time, people come to ask for the price, but few people buy it, and I don't know why, at dusk, there is still most of the sugarcane left, which makes Zhang Xiaomin distressed, and thinks that it would be good to have a big customer buy it all directly.
However, what Zhang Xiaomin didn't expect was that a big customer really came, but it was not Zhang Xiaomin's sugarcane, but the whetstone she picked up.
Gyoku-chi-hsien
The street lights were already on, and Zhang Xiaomin was about to pack his things to leave, when suddenly a man wearing a black coat, a black hat, and sunglasses came over at night.
Looking at the man in front of him, Zhang Xiaomin subconsciously became vigilant, who expected that the man in black was a customer and asked for ten yuan of sugarcane, which made Zhang Xiaomin's hanging heart let go, and she began to divide the sugarcane for the customer and peel it.
When he had nothing to do, the man in black looked around, and suddenly his eyes looked at Zhang Xiaomin's whetstone, and he involuntarily walked up, Zhang Xiaomin was seriously peeling, and he didn't notice the man in black at all.
The man in black picked up the whetstone and began to examine it carefully, and also took off his sunglasses, taking a magnifying glass to carefully observe the patterns on them. At this time, Zhang Xiaomin also disposed of the sugarcane, and was about to hand it to the man in black, but found that he was looking at the whetstone.
Zhang Xiaomin didn't react for a while, she only had doubts in her heart, so she stopped the man in black, and at this moment, Zhang Xiaomin found that the man in black had a smile on his face, and it was difficult to hide the excitement in his eyes.
However, the man in black quickly adjusted, continued to put on his sunglasses, took the sugar cane in one hand, and took out a hundred-dollar bill directly from his pocket.
Zhang Xiaomin was about to look for money, but the man in black stopped her, saying, "Girl, don't look for money, uncle likes this whetstone more, can you give it to me?"
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Xiaomin will directly give away a whetstone, and he will not collect money, after all, it is a broken stone, how much is it worth.
However, after perceiving the abnormal behavior of the man in black, Zhang Xiaomin's heart was faintly uneasy, and he didn't want to have too much to do with the man in black, so he directly rejected him, and took out 90 yuan in change and handed it to the man in black.
Zhang Xiaomin's reason for refusing was also very ordinary, saying that it was left by his grandfather, and he was used to using it, and he didn't want to sell it. refused to do this, Zhang Xiaomin felt that the man in black would definitely retreat in difficulty, but who expected that this would directly make the man in black anxious.
"No, Uncle really likes this stone, so give it to him! Either or I'll buy all the sugar cane you have left, what do you think?" said the man in black quickly.
To say that Zhang Xiaomin was still skeptical before, but at this moment he was convinced that the man in black came for the whetstone, and it seems that this whetstone is worth a lot of money, at least a few thousand.
Zhang Xiaomin also fell into hesitation, and the man in black saw that Zhang Xiaomin didn't say a word, so he directly offered to buy this whetstone, and it was 10,000 yuan as soon as he exported.
This made Zhang Xiaomin stunned in place, she could already be sure that the whetstone was not simple, I was afraid that it was a baby, so she asked the man what the origin of this whetstone was.
The man in black also seemed to know that the woman in front of him was not easy to deceive, so he explained, "This is Yuyue, sell it to me for 20,000 yuan, this is also the final reserve price, it is difficult to get this price elsewhere!"
This really made Zhang Xiaomin stunned in place, she felt like a dream, and it took a long time to come back to her senses, but in the face of the price of 20,000 yuan, she still refused, first, the dress of the man in black made Zhang Xiaomin really trust, and second, Zhang Xiaomin couldn't make up her mind and wanted to discuss it with her husband.
In the end, the two exchanged contact information, the man in black left, and Zhang Xiaomin also packed his things and hurriedly returned home. That night, the couple discussed for a long time, and finally decided to go to the antique shop the next day to estimate the price and make a decision.
Final choice
Early the next morning, Zhang Xiaomin took Yuyue to the ancient store for identification, and after seeing Yuyue, the boss also felt that this thing was extraordinary, and took Zhang Xiaomin directly to an empty room.
I saw the boss holding a magnifying glass and carefully observing it for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that this is a cultural relic, the specific year is unknown, and I am afraid that I need to find the corresponding expert for further identification.
What? This is actually a cultural relic, at this moment Zhang Xiaomin's heart was turbulent, she asked the boss how much this jade is worth, and the boss has nothing to say, only that the value is difficult to estimate.
After coming out of the antique shop, Zhang Xiaomin couldn't give up, he was in a very complicated mood, looking at the phone number in the phone, she finally decided to block it, no matter how it was dealt with in the end, she would not resell.
After returning home, Zhang Xiaomin told her husband about the incident in the antique shop, and to Zhang Xiaomin's surprise, her husband asked her to take the initiative to hand it over to the Cultural Relics Bureau to realize its true value.
This is also the first time in these years that Zhang Xiaomin has been impressed by her husband, and it is really valuable that a husband who is illiterate in big characters has such a high consciousness.
With the support of her husband, Zhang Xiaomin was also more determined, and after eating at noon, she went to the county cultural relics bureau with her husband to hand over the jade Yue.
The two of them were very happy on the way home, for them, spiritual wealth is far more important than material wealth, and ill-gotten wealth will never be touched.
epilogue
That night, the couple had just turned on the TV after lunch, and suddenly heard a knock on the door outside, and Zhang Xiaomin, who was puzzled, opened the door, and it turned out to be the man in black yesterday.
Zhang Xiaomin also knew the purpose of the man in black, and directly told him about the cultural relics handed over today, and the man in black didn't believe it at first, until her husband walked out of the house and took out the certificate, which made the man in black completely disappointed and left here without saying a word.
