Xu Jinyan was concentrating on making furniture when the door behind him was suddenly pushed open again.
She looked up and realized that it was still Old Guo.
Old Guo had originally left, but he suddenly remembered something and returned to Xu Jinyan's house.
At that time, Wang Xiaochuan had told him that Xu Jinyan had made up his mind to spend a lot of money to buy that jar of mutton because of a copper coin.
Xu Jinyan was puzzled." Old Guo, why are you back?"”
"I remember Xiaochuan telling me that you like old things?
Xu Jinyan thought for a moment. He had indeed said this to Wang Xiaochuan, so he nodded.
"Yes, I did say that to Brother Wang. What's wrong?”
He teased," Uncle Guo, do you have any old objects in your house?”
Unexpectedly, Old Guo immediately nodded and said," I do have some old things at home. If you want them, I'll give them to you. They're not valuable anyway.”
When Xu Jinyan heard this, he was a little confused. Where did these old things come from on the prairie? After all, copper coins were only common in the Central Plains.
"Uncle Guo, where did you get these old things?”
As she spoke, she continued to make furniture, looking as if she did not care much.
Old Guo explained," I just randomly picked them up by the river. Other than some copper coins, there were also some bottles and jars. Anyway, they weren't useful for writing. I casually placed them in the corner and they were all dusty.”
"I thought it would take up space anyway. If you like it, I'll give it to you.”
When Xu Jinyan heard this, he immediately straightened his back. He could not care less about the carpentry work and quickly asked.
"You said you picked it up by the river?”
Seeing Xu Jinyan so anxious, Old Guo was a little confused.
"Yes, I picked it up by the river. I thought I could use it when I picked it up. Perhaps it was soaked in the water for a long time and broke after a few uses. I casually put the rest in the corner.”
If this was true, then he was really blind.
Xu Jinyan thought to himself," Such a good treasure is being used as a rough pottery bowl that you usually use at home. The key is that a few of them are broken. What a waste of a heavenly treasure!"
However, Xu Jinyan did not plan to tell Old Guo about this.
He wouldn't understand even if she told him. He might even say that she was delusional.
Now, Xu Jinyan was concerned about another matter.
Since Old Guo said that he picked up those antiques by the river, then there must have been a tomb that had been washed away upstream of the river, and there were many funerary objects inside!
This was no small matter!
Others might not understand, but he did.
These things weren't worth much now, but they would be worth sky-high prices in a decade.
Xu Jinyan didn't think too much about it.
There was nothing wrong with keeping it.
No matter how he did it, he wouldn't lose money.
Xu Jinyan immediately suggested going to Old Guo's house to take a look.
When the two of them returned home, Xu Jinyan saw a few dust-covered jars in the corner.
It looked like an old object, so he didn't understand.
However, he knew that it was good stuff and expensive.
Old Guo stared at the jar without saying anything and said in confusion.
"Xiao Xu, if you like those things, you can take them all. Anyway, they're just ashes in my house.”
It would have been fine if it had been anyone else, but Old Guo had always treated Xu Jinyan well.
No matter how valuable these treasures were, they couldn't take advantage of him.
Hence, he reminded,"
"Uncle Guo, you have to remember what I said. You have to keep those old objects well and not break them again.”
Old Guo was shocked by his solemn tone and was skeptical.
"No…"
Why would he keep these pieces of junk?
Just as she was about to ask, Xu Jinyan rushed out impatiently.
"Sigh! Xiao Xu! Where are you going?"
Xu Jinyan's voice came from afar.
"I'm going to do something big!"
Old Guo muttered doubtfully.
"Do something big? What's the big deal?"
On the other side, Xu Jinyan had already rushed to the center of the village. He did not care about his current image and directly shouted.
"Whoever has old objects, such as porcelain, pottery, and copper coins, can come to my house to exchange for money, rice, flour, food, and meat!”
The villagers looked at him in surprise, wondering if this Little Xu had gone crazy. Why did he suddenly become like this? Why did he want to change to an old item?
That thing couldn't be eaten or worn, so what was the point of it?
Someone asked," Xiao Xu, why do you want those old things?”
Xu Jinyan smiled and said," You don't have to worry about that. I like things that have a sense of age."”
When the villagers heard this, they all thought to themselves.
These scholars were strange.
However, since Xu Jinyan could exchange those useless things for food, they would definitely have to exchange them. If they didn't, they would be idiots!
Therefore, many villagers brought their dusty old items to Xu Jinyan's house, waiting to exchange them for food.
Xu Jinyan had moved food out of the house. He had exchanged work points for it over the past few days.
Of course, this was mainly to cover for the food in the system space.
He felt that there was not much left, so he took some out from his space and piled them in the courtyard.
"Everyone, come one by one. I have plenty of food here. As long as the old items are good, you can exchange them!”
Everyone who came wanted to take advantage of him, so Xu Jinyan did not feel guilty.
Although the villagers thought that Xu Jinyan was out of his mind, they were jealous of the food that was shining brightly. They went back to their homes and rummaged through the cabinets.
Old clothes and tattered jackets were all taken out.
Of course, there were also some that looked like antiques.
It wasn't until evening that these people dispersed.
He didn't gain much, but as long as he did, it was a huge profit for Xu Jinyan.
There was only one advantage to buying antiques these days. They didn't have to worry about imitations.
Xu Jinyan put the old objects that the villagers had abandoned into the interspace and categorized them.
There was also a porcelain bowl that was as thin as a cicada's wing. The color of the bowl was uniform, and it could still be seen under the sun. At night, it could even faintly emit a layer of hazy halo.
Xu Jinyan couldn't tell where this thing came from, but it was definitely a top-grade item!
The villagers could also tell that this was a good thing. In the end, Xu Jinyan had to use the sheepskin coat that Uncle Dong had given him to exchange for the bowl.
In the eyes of the other villagers, they naturally took advantage of it. Although the bowl was beautiful, it was only a bowl. Compared to the food that could be eaten, wearing a warm sheepskin coat was not worth mentioning.
The herdsmen were happy, and Xu Jinyan had also gotten what he wanted. At first glance, it seemed like he was willing to pay for it.
However, how could he make a loss?
When night fell, Xu Jinyan was still admiring the bowl in front of the candlelight. The more he looked at it, the more he liked the color and appearance.
Meanwhile, Uncle Dong and Old Guo had heard about Xu Jinyan and were rushing over.
