"Don't misunderstand. I have no ill intentions. My name is He Yuheng, and I'm from the front courtyard. I just saw that your child's bowl was beautiful and wanted to ask where he bought it.”

"He Yuheng, are you the child prodigy who graduated from high school at the age of fifteen?”The child's mother said in surprise.

There were very few scholars in this courtyard, not to mention a child prodigy like He Yuheng who graduated from high school at the age of fifteen. His name had long been quietly spread in this small place.

In ancient China, the common people were divided into four classes: scholars, farmers, industry, and commerce. Scholars were at the top of the four classes. Scholars were the general term for the group of officials in the court. The ancients also had the saying that "if you study well, you will be an official", which meant that if you have excellent academic performance, you can be promoted to an official.

From this, one could see the status of scholars in our country. Since ancient times, they have been respected by others. In the modern era, with the rapid development of our country's national economy, almost all modern people could accept the compulsory education implemented by the country. The continuous advancement of the times had also given rise to the demand for higher education talents. Parents would strive to get their children to the starting line and not fall behind. As long as the family's economic conditions were slightly better, they would sign up for various interest classes since their children were young. They would rack their brains to send their children to the so-called famous schools in order to get into a good university in the future.

Just Xu Damao, that fellow, who knew a few big characters and called himself a cultured person all day long, would have to look up the dictionary all night to write a simple material.

In fact, a truly cultured person was self-confident and powerful. On the contrary, the less cultured they were, the more they would show off their little bit of ink. In the end, they were not confident enough, so they would bluff and want to obtain self-satisfaction through the verbal recognition of others.

The more a person knew, the more he should be able to feel how insignificant a person was in this world. Otherwise, why would the ancients say that there was no end to learning? The process of learning was the process of exploring this world. If the world had no end, there would be no end to learning.

"Yes, it's like this. I usually like to draw flowers, plants, immortals, and monsters. When I saw your bowl, I liked it very much and wanted to buy it from you.”

"This bowl?"

The child's mother felt that it was rather strange. It was just an ordinary bowl, yet it could still attract people's attention. The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea were all immortals, and they were only used for good luck.

"It's just this bowl. You can take it.”

"San Mao, alright. Here, here you go."

As long as he got the item, He Yuheng was too lazy to bargain. In the end, he still earned it.

He Yuheng poured out the sand in the bowl and took the bowl to the side to admire it.

He could not help but praise,"The walls are deep, the feet are round, and the porcelain body is like white marble. This blue flower is really beautiful!”Even if it wasn't from the Ming Dynasty, it was still a genuine piece from the Qing Dynasty. The 30 cents were not wasted.

........................................................................

He Yuheng was still intoxicated by the "beauty" of this bowl and did not notice the approaching of others.

"Brat, what are you laughing about by the roadside in broad daylight? Why are you so happy when you're begging?”This sudden teasing pulled He Yuheng back to reality. He quickly put away the bowl and looked at the person who had come.

"Hey, aren't you Master Guan, Master Guan, the Nine Gates Admiral!”

When he saw this face that looked like his father, he automatically recognized it. It really didn't take much effort to get it. He was still thinking of looking for him, but it had "automatically delivered itself to his door".

"Kid, you know me?"

"Hey, who in this city doesn't know you, Master Guan?”

Master Guan,

"Alright, kid, let me ask you, where did you cheat this bowl from?”

"Hey, look at what you're saying. How can a serious person like me cheat people? I bought this bowl with money.”

"You're serious. You probably accepted it, right?”Uncle Guan was right.

When He Yuheng heard this, he knew that he was indeed the old man. Then, he had to seize the opportunity to quickly learn from him.

"Master Guan, my name is He Yuheng. It's like this. I want to be your disciple and learn your skills.”He Yuheng said directly.

"So you're He Yuheng. You don't need to be smart on the right path. Tell me, why do you want to learn antiques?”Uncle Guan asked directly.

"Do you know me?" He Yuheng was a little surprised and secretly happy because a stubborn person like the old man did not reject him immediately. He continued,"I want to learn knowledge, not to covet your things.”

"What else?"

"When I accumulate more knowledge, I can slowly collect things myself.”

"Not for fun?"

"In order to satisfy myself, and also to prevent things from leaving!”

Hearing this, Master Guan looked at He Yuheng. He Yuheng was not afraid and just looked at Master Guan for a few seconds.

The phrase " in order to not let things go out " hit Uncle Guan's heart. As an old collector who had experienced the Qing Dynasty and the Anti-Japanese War in Beijing, he had personally fought against the Japanese. He hated traitors the most in his life and could not bear to see his country's items being lost to foreign countries.

Perhaps Master Guan was moved by the sincerity in He Yuheng's clear eyes, Master Guan relented and said,"You just received a good item. I don't have anything to teach you.”

Smart He Yuheng knew that she had a chance to become her master. The old man was just joking with her. Her heart was instantly filled with joy.

As expected, the old man said,"Find me a good treasure within ten days. You can't fool me with something you know."”

"Alright!" He Yuheng agreed immediately." Master, I'll visit you again in a few days."”

"Get lost!"

He Yuheng didn't dare to be rash or mischievous. He smiled and bowed slightly to Uncle Guan to show his respect.

........................................................................

He Yuheng returned home happily. What he didn't notice was that Xu Damao, who had entered the courtyard behind him, was looking at him with resentment. If He Yuheng hadn't suddenly come back and interfered, Xu Damao wouldn't have been so embarrassed yesterday.

Losing a chicken was already enough to make him unhappy for a long time, and he was even mocked by He Yuzhu in public for not having any children. What made him the most angry was that he wanted to teach He Yuzhu a lesson, but in the end, he shot himself in the foot and made him unhappy.

Originally, Xu Damao's target was He Yuzhu. He usually introduced himself as a cultured person, so he had some respect for a real cultured person like He Yuheng. However, after last night's battle, this grudge was formed. He secretly remembered this debt with He Yuheng. In the future, if he did not take revenge, he would not be Xu Damao.

However, what Xu Damao didn't know was that as a person from the future, He Yuheng, who understood the fate of all the people here, was simply comparable to an emperor with the protection of the Ziwei Star. Moreover, there was a living Buddha like the old lady protecting him. Presumably, only others would suffer.

Putting aside these luck bonuses, He Yuzhu's family was clean and had three generations of farmers. They did not have their own land and could only farm for others. As for Xu Damao's family, they were poor farmers. In other words, their family still had some land. In this era, Xu Damao was no match for He Yuzhu. Therefore, He Yuheng did not have to worry about the movement in the future. It would not affect him. Even if it affected him, he would be able to escape unscathed.

He Yuheng returned to the room and held the fresh treasure in his hand for a moment to carefully examine it. Strictly speaking, this was the first object he had received with his own eyes. Moreover, by chance, he had used this as an opportunity to become the Nine Gates Inspector's disciple. To describe it in a chuunibyou way, the more He Yuheng looked at the bowl, the more he felt that it was his "lucky stone".

Moreover, the value of this bowl was not low. In the modern world, it could be worth at least three million.

In just a day, He Yuheng had become a " multimillionaire." He couldn't help but sigh. Indeed, it was easier to make a collection in these times.

"I'll go out tomorrow and see if I can find any more treasures so that I can quickly bring them to my master.”
