Chapter 161 Studying with the Broken One
After Li Dongyu left, Paolahou looked at the five dollars in his hand, feeling deeply moved. He realized that this young man was not like the others who coveted his treasure, but really wanted to make friends. After all, the purity of a person's eyes can be seen directly, and Paolahou has such an ability. The young man's eyes are very pure.
A few days later, one evening, the sky was dyed orange-red by the setting sun, like a beautiful painting. Li Dongyu came to the residence of the Broken Marquis again, this time with some food and a bottle of wine in his hands. He pushed open the shabby door and walked into the yard.
The ragged Hou was sitting on a stone bench in the yard. When he saw Li Dongyu coming, a smile appeared on his face. Li Dongyu put the food on the table, opened the wine bottle, and poured two glasses of wine.
"Uncle, I'm here to chat with you again today! This is some good wine I brought specially, let's have a drink together." Li Dongyu said with a smile.
Polan Hou took the wine glass and took a sip, feeling the mellow aroma of the wine. They were enjoying the food and talking about various topics, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Uncle, what do you think life should be like?" Li Dongyu suddenly asked.
The rag-and-bone Hou pondered for a moment and slowly replied: "Life is a journey of practice. Everyone has his or her own path and goal. The important thing is to maintain a kind heart and treat others sincerely and kindly."
Li Dongyu nodded in agreement. He recalled his own experience and was filled with emotion. He realized that the meaning of life is not only about pursuing material wealth, but also about inner growth and caring for others.
On this beautiful evening, Li Dongyu benefited greatly from the conversation with Polan Hou. They continued to talk and share each other's stories and insights until night fell.
"Boy, you and I get along very well." The Tattered Marquis said with a smile, "If you need any help in the future, just let me know."
"Thank you, uncle!" Li Dongyu said gratefully, "Actually, I'm quite interested in antiques. Does uncle know anyone in this field who can share some appreciation knowledge with me?"
A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Broken Marquis. He did not expect that Li Dongyu would have such an interest. It just suited his heart. After all, he was a talent in this field. So he pretended to be mysterious and said, "Oh? You are interested in antiques? That's a coincidence. I also happen to have some knowledge of this. If you want to learn about appreciation, I can teach you a few tricks. But..."
Li Dongyu quickly asked: "But what?"
The ragged Hou smiled and said, "But you have to do me a favor first."
"What help? I'll do my best as long as I can!" Li Dongyu agreed without hesitation.
"Okay!" Hou Paolan nodded with satisfaction. "Come to this address to find me tomorrow morning and I will take you somewhere." As he said that, he handed him a note.
Li Dongyu took the note, glanced at the address on it, and then carefully put it away. He knew that this opportunity was hard-won and he must cherish it. The next morning, Li Dongyu came to the designated location as agreed. This is a busy street, but it looks a bit old. He looked around, looking for the figure of the broken Hou. Finally, at the door of a very secretive similar store, he saw the familiar figure. Speaking of a store, it is actually a private place. Anyway, it is not open to the public. After all, it is best to take it easy in this era, otherwise what awaits you is jail time, and in serious cases, you will have to eat peanuts.
The rag-and-bone Hou greeted him with a smile and took him into the store. After arriving at the door, Li Dongyu realized that this was an antique shop. Although it was not big, it was filled with all kinds of exquisite antiques, which made people dazzled.
"These are all my treasures! They are not for public viewing. You are the first person I brought here." The Broken Marquis proudly introduced, "But today we are not here to admire these antiques. Instead, we are going to a special place. Come with me!"
Hou Palan led Li Dongyu out of the antique shop, through several narrow streets, and finally came to an ancient courtyard. This courtyard looked abandoned for a long time, but it still exuded a unique atmosphere.
Hou Paolan pushed open the gate and walked in with Li Dongyu. The yard was overgrown with weeds and looked very desolate. But when they walked into a room, they found it was filled with all kinds of antiques.
"This is the real treasure trove!" said the Broken Marquis excitedly, "These antiques are treasures I have collected over the years, many of which have a long history and cultural value. Now, let me tell you how to identify them!"
In the following time, Hou Paolan patiently explained to Li Dongyu the basic knowledge of antique appreciation, including the characteristics and identification methods of different types of porcelain, calligraphy and painting, jade, etc. Li Dongyu listened with great interest and asked questions from time to time, and the discussion between the two became more and more heated.
Li Dongyu studied very hard, and Hou Polan was very satisfied with his performance.
"You are very talented. You can come here often in the future." Hou Polan patted Li Dongyu on the shoulder.
"Thank you, uncle! I will definitely work hard." Li Dongyu burst into tears of gratitude.
After the incident, Li Dongyu was shocked. It turned out that the real Broken Marquis had a deeper background than the prototype Broken Marquis. He was simply a hidden boss. Even Grandpa Guan had such a collection! This made Li Dongyu's move really smart. You can imagine that if he took all these old items, his assets would be worth tens of billions.
However, Li Dongyu knew that it was quite difficult to buy these things from Hou Polan. But now that the first step had been taken, things would be much easier in the future. Li Dongyu was not in a hurry. Anyway, for Li Dongyu, no matter whether it was those good things of Grandpa Guan or those good things of Hou Polan, they would eventually belong to him. Otherwise, why would he go through so much trouble?
But Li Dongyu is not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of others. After all, you can't accept rewards without merit! Since others have helped you, you must give them something in return. So, he naturally won't fool others for nothing. Of course, if you must say it is a trick, then you must give the other party an equivalent amount of money. Anyway, the amount is the amount, and they are not short of a share.
