"Hey, Little Yu, what are you thinking about?”
Hearing Third Aunt's words, Gu Yu suddenly reacted. Looking at the ground in front of him that had been dug up, he couldn't help but smile brightly. Then, he went to another piece of land.
At this moment, he was digging the ground with Third Uncle and Third Aunt.
After obtaining the blue and white porcelain vase from the Yongle era of the Ming Dynasty, Gu Yu thought of many ways.
The first thing he thought of was naturally the auction he had seen the most in the past.
Not to mention that the auction houses in the country had to send things to the capital, Shanghai, or Guangzhou, just the commission of the auction house alone was a large sum of money. After the commission was used up, they had to pay personal income tax.
If he sold almost all the items, half of the money would not belong to him anymore. This was really a loss.
At the same time, if the auction wanted to get a high price, it would have to be publicized. Generally speaking, it would be publicized half a year in advance. If Gu Yu was especially anxious, it would have to be changed to three months.
Losing half of the money and not being able to cash in the money for the items was too much of a loss.
Therefore, after understanding the nature of the auction, Gu Yu no longer considered this problem.
If they didn't auction it, they could only sell it privately. However, this was another problem.
Yan Huang's porcelain was the most famous internationally, so it was the most valuable cultural relic in the world. Only foreigners could afford it. If Gu Yu sold it to foreigners, people would definitely say that he was unpatriotic and sold the national treasure overseas.
However, if you were selling it to a local, as long as you didn't ask for anything, the other party would report it and the relevant departments would come over. The goods would be confiscated and you would be given a silk banner. It would be 500 yuan. Perfect.
Therefore, he cast aside his initial excitement. Gu Yu now felt that this thing was like a Chinese Bahaba fish. It was a hot potato. It was not easy to get it unless he kept it as his family heirloom. However, this was too much of a pity.
If he got eight or ten of these porcelain pieces in the future, it would be reasonable for him to keep them. However, the problem was that he only had this one porcelain piece now, and he was in a hurry to cash it out.
This caused him to be distracted while working.
However, after hearing what his third aunt said, Gu Yu recovered and focused on digging the ground.
As for why they had to dig the soil, it was very important. If they didn't dig the soil, the seeds wouldn't survive. When the soil was loose, there would be gaps in the middle, and then plants could take root and sprout in these gaps. However, every time the plants grew, their roots would condense the soil into a lump again, because only then could they absorb water and nutrients.
Therefore, every time they planted the land, they had to dig the soil again. Moreover, they had to smash all the large pieces of soil and throw away the stones at the same time.
Gu Yu might be strong and fast, but when it came to farm work, he really couldn't compare to Third Uncle and Third Aunt. This piece of land was not small, about three Mu. Originally, it was said that each person would get one Mu, and the extra would go to Third Uncle. However, in reality, after finishing three Mu, it would be good if Gu Yu could get half an Mu himself.
After all, they were children from the city. Third Uncle and Third Aunt smiled and did not say much.
After loosening the soil, it was time to plant the vegetables. Gu Yu's second uncle had the seeds at home, so the rest of the steps were simple. Third Aunt went back to cook, while Gu Yu and his third uncle squatted in the fields to learn.
It was easy to grow vegetables. He just had to dig a hole, plant some seeds, bury some soil, and then water them.
However, some things were planted like this, while others needed to be raised.
For example, large parts of melons and beans needed to be raised.
Gu Yu watched as his third uncle made the dishes while memorizing what his third uncle said. Perhaps it was because he drank too much well water, his memory was clearly much better than before.
As he tidied up, it was soon noon. Gu Yu went to the second master's house for lunch, and then he was busy with his vegetable field.
According to his third uncle, although there had never been any crops growing on his family's land, there had always been weeds growing on it. The fertility of the soil might not be enough, so it needed to be fertilized. His family's vegetable garden definitely could not be fertilized. Therefore, he asked Gu Yu if he wanted farm manure, which was something from the marsh gas tank. Gu Yu naturally did not want it. What a joke. He had well water. Was there a need for that?
In the afternoon, he made sure that every seed and every seedling was watered before he went to rest. He was lying in bed and investigating the sale of porcelain.
In the blink of an eye, it was night time. One had to admit that life here was really fast and leisurely. It felt like a day had passed before much time had passed.
Gu Yu decided not to think about it for the time being and went fishing.
He didn't know when he would be able to sell this vase. At this time, it was better to make money first. Thinking of this, Gu Yu took the fishing rod and went to his well again. He sat on a small stool and slid the fishing line into the well.
However, what surprised him this time was that the fishing rod stopped when it was more than three meters into the water. He was dumbfounded. His well was not even three meters deep. What the hell?
Could it be that he had used up all his luck today after catching the blue and white porcelain?
Just as he was puzzled, he felt his fishing rod sink. However, judging from the strength of his struggle, it was clearly a small fish...
"Don't tell me you caught the original carp in the well!”Gu Yu muttered to himself as he helplessly retracted the fishing line. The three-meter-long fishing line was soon out of the water. However, the moment it came out of the water, Gu Yu saw a smear of red...
Gu Yu was also stunned when he saw the red. He quickly pulled the fishing line. When he pulled the fish out of the well, he was dumbfounded.
Indeed, just as he thought, this fish was not a sea fish but a freshwater fish. But who said that freshwater fish could not be valuable? This was a slap to Gu Yu's face.
Because this fish was the king of freshwater fish that Gu Yu knew…
Of course, it was not because the fish was fierce, but because it was very valuable.
It was a red dragon, and it was in excellent condition. Its body length was about 60 centimeters, and it looked very red. He just didn't know what kind of red dragon it was. After all, Gu Yu had never raised such an ornamental fish.
"Forget it for now. Continue fishing. Who knows? Just because blue and white porcelain isn't easy to sell doesn't mean that this thing isn't easy to sell!”He took the red dragon off the hook and threw it into the well that he had prepared beforehand. Then, Gu Yu continued fishing.
Perhaps it was because he had opened his mouth, or perhaps it was because he had just caught up with the time for the well water, Gu Yu caught five red dragons that looked similar to the previous one before he started to change the fish. It became the West Star Spot, which was worth about 1,000 yuan, then the East Star Spot, then the Tiger Spot, the Green Spot, the Fir Spot, the Pomfret, the rainbow trout…
When he caught the rainbow trout, Gu Yu decisively stopped. The remaining fish were not worth much. It was better to save some luck.
Looking at the large basin of fish beside him, Gu Yu also began to move them, especially the six red dragons that he had caught at the beginning. He had specially made an area for them in the fish tank.
With the well water, they would not die. They only needed to be raised for a few days. After the fish hook marks on their mouths grew back, Gu Yu could prepare to attack!
