Chen Muyu shook his head and was too lazy to speak, "It's not enough to sell it as scrap metal!"
"ah?"
Yang Shui was obviously very surprised, "Xiaoyu, are you kidding? After just a few grinds, it's worthless at all."
"If you throw it on the ground, don't pick it up. Keep it for yourself to play with!"
Chen Muyu sighed, reached out and patted Yang Shui on the shoulder, "Brother Shui, let's work down to earth and don't imitate others in playing these things. Even if you have this idea, learn from your dad!
"
These words can be regarded as good words of advice, but thanks to the good temper of the youngest Wang, if it were a father with a hotter temper, he would have beaten the mother and son long ago.
Disappointed, extremely disappointed.
Yang Shui smiled bitterly. He did not ask how much these ancient coins were worth before, so as not to cause greater disappointment.
There was a sound in the room, and the youngest Wang finally got up.
Yang Shui heard the sound and walked quickly.
"Hey, Xiaoyu is here?"
Walking out of the room, the youngest Wang gave her waist a beating. She really looked like she was overworked.
"Old man, take it easy!" Chen Muyu teased.
Hearing this, the youngest Wang couldn't laugh or cry, "You kid, stop joking around. I'm already my age and I can't compare to you young people."
Chen Muyu just smiled. For men, age is not a problem at all. I heard Yang Shui say that his mother is just an old field that has died of drought. Now that she has found a man, how can she still make it?
Unable to stand the look in Chen Muyu's eyes, Wang Laoyao walked over, picked up the box on the table and looked at it. When he saw the pile of worn ancient coins, he smiled bitterly, shook his head, and threw it back on the table.
"Old man, Brother Shui's mother doesn't understand these things, her thoughts are simple, and her mistakes were unintentional. Just talk to her about it, don't affect your feelings!" Chen Muyu said hurriedly.
The youngest Wang waved his hand, "What did I ask her to do? It is said that the wind blows away the egg shells, but the wealth is gone and people are happy. This thing is not worth a lot of money. If it breaks, it will break!"
This youngest Wang is quite Buddhist.
Hearing what he said, Chen Muyu felt relieved, "You asked me to come here today and said you wanted to take me somewhere. Old man, can you tell me everything?"
"Not urgent!"
The youngest Wang waved his hand and went straight to wash his face.
…
After a while, it was almost ten o'clock in the morning when Wang Laoyao took Chen Muyu out.
Chen Muyu hasn't returned Third Uncle's car yet, so he drove over today, and under the guidance of Wang Laoyao, he arrived at the outskirts of Beicheng.
Ganlu Town.
There is a small town in the northern suburbs of Qingshan City. There is Ganquan Village in the town. Among the mountains, there are lush woods and hectares of fertile farmland.
The asphalt road leads directly into the village. Along the way, Chen Muyu felt somewhat confused.
"Old man, why did you bring me here?"
After getting out of the car, Chen Muyu looked around. There were many houses in the village, many of which were still wooden structures. However, it looked like many of them were aged and probably no longer occupied.
Now, the life of the villagers has improved. Once they have money, they either build new houses or buy houses in the city. Naturally, the old houses are deserted and no one cares about them.
Those who build new houses in the village must build them in places with convenient transportation. Over the years, the houses in the mountains have basically become old houses.
Many young people have gone out to work. At a glance, there are a few old people working here and there in the farmland, which looks quite deserted.
"I'll introduce you to a treasure. Whether you can catch it or not depends on your eyesight!" Young Wang grinned, and his dentures almost fell out.
As soon as he finished speaking, he walked onto a path beside the road, followed the field ridge, and walked towards a farmer's house by the woods not far away.
…
This is an ordinary small farmhouse. The house must be a few years old. The wooden and tiled house has long been dilapidated because no one lives in it. There are holes in the roof, and several walls are also span-spanned and rotten.
There are spider webs everywhere.
Standing outside the house, the youngest Wang pointed to the dilapidated house in front with his chin, "Xiaoyu, come and take a look, can you see where the money is hidden?"
money?
Chen Muyu couldn't laugh or cry. How rotten was this house? How could he still hide money?
Even if there is, if the house is in such a state of decay, can you still keep the money?
Taking a closer look, there were only some broken wood and tiles, but also piles of dust. This was a dangerous house, and Chen Muyu did not dare to go in.
"Old man, why don't you stop playing tricks and bring me all the way here just to see this shabby house?" Chen Muyu looked at Wang Laoyao in confusion.
The youngest Wang was not in a hurry, "During this journey, have you not noticed anything different about this village?"
Different? Chen Muyu was even more puzzled, "I just drove the car, so I have time to observe other people. This village has more shabby houses and fewer people. Other than that, there is no difference!"
"come here!"
The youngest Wang called Chen Muyu to his side and pointed to a tree in the field, "Do you know what tree it is?"
Looking in the direction of the youngest Wang's finger, in the field, about 50 meters away, there grew a tree that was about 20 meters high and could hardly be hugged by one person.
The tree body is straight, the leaves are lush, like a canopy, the leaves are long, it is autumn, many of them are already withered.
"Zhen Nan?"
Chen Muyu was stunned for a moment. He had grown up in the village and he could still recognize the nan tree. Even if he couldn't recognize it, wasn't there a sign hanging on the tree?
"You're quite discerning!"
The youngest Wang smiled, stretched out his hand and pointed around, "In ancient times, the land of Xichuan was rich in nanmu, right here where we are standing. Not to mention the ancient times, decades earlier, nanmu was everywhere.
It can be seen that even now, you see, there are a lot of nanmu trees in this village..."
Speaking of this, Chen Muyu seemed to have come to his senses. Is it because Wang Laoyao brought him all the way here for these trees?
Nanmu is a kind of precious wood and is a Class II protected plant. This kind of wood is hard, durable and has excellent corrosion resistance. It has a special fragrance and can avoid insects. Whether in ancient times or now, it is the most popular wood.
of luxury goods.
There are generally three types of nanmu: golden nanmu, fragrant nanmu, and water nanmu. Among them, golden nanmu has the highest quality and is the most sought after. In ancient times, it was basically a royal product. It was mainly produced in the mountains of Xichuan and was very rare.
, the price is comparable to gold.
In recent years, nanmu has been designated as a second-level protected plant and is not allowed to be cut down without permission. There are many people speculating on nanmu in the domestic market. The price of nanmu has been rising all the way and is extremely popular.
Chen Muyu looked into the woods nearby and could vaguely see the shadows of several nanmu trees.
"Old man, you don't want me to steal the tree, do you?" Chen Muyu looked back at Wang Laoyao and smiled, "These trees are all branded, I will not do anything illegal!"
"You have the heart, but I don't have the courage!"
The youngest Wang gave Chen Muyu a blank look, "When I was a child, I grew up in Ganquan Village. At that time, the villagers built house beams, rafters, and made furniture, tables, chairs, boxes, and cabinets. Many materials were used.
There are many nanmu trees with golden threads..."
"oh?"
Hearing this, Chen Muyu finally came to his senses. The old man walked around in circles for a long time. Is this what he wanted to say?
Looking back at the dilapidated room, Chen Muyu's eyes brightened slightly.
