Chapter 193 Second Grandpa

Yang Jing has been here many times for the second grandfather to come to Yanjing alone when he was a child, Yang Jing will inevitably go back to his second grandfather and second aunt's house to sit down.

Yang Jing had no feelings about the second grandfather's yard before, but now that he has seen more, he naturally understands the value of this yard, so he secretly lamented that his second grandfather's fate is good.

Yang Jing's grandfather's father has four children in total, the first two are daughters, Yang Jing's grandfather is the third child, but he is the eldest son of the family, and the second grandfather is Yang Jing's grandfather's younger brother.

Yang Jing's grandfather used to be in business. After the family had accumulated some wealth, he bought this yard in Dong41, which was born and raised in this yard.

Later, after Yang Jing's grandfather passed away, the yard was left to the eldest son, who was the father of Yang Jing's grandfather. However, it was the turbulent era of China. Warlords and Japanese devils kept leaving indelible wounds on this kind and kind mother at a time.

Yang Jing's grandfather's father joined the party under such circumstances and has been engaged in underground activities in Yanjing. Later, the reason why Yang Jing's grandfather and second grandfather were able to join the army through political review was also closely related to their father's wise choice back then. Otherwise, if they were their grandfather, if the two brothers wanted to join the army in that era, they would not even pass the political review.

The second grandfather was five years younger than Yang Jing's grandfather, but he only became a soldier in 1960. Moreover, the second grandfather's military service was located in Yanjing, and he did not go far away from Shandong Province like his brother.

After four years of demobilization, my second grandfather entered the Dongsi Post and Telecommunications Bureau and became a glorious post and telecommunications worker. He worked in the post and telecommunications system until he retired.

Yang Jing knew the brotherly relationship between his grandfather and his second grandfather, so it was so close. Yang Jing remembered that when his grandfather was not sick, he brought him to Yanjing to visit his brother more than once. When he met, the two of them hugged their heads and cried bitterly.

Even after my grandfather got sick, he had been to Yanjing twice, and the two of them still burst into tears when they met.

In fact, this yard is half as good as that of grandfather. Even according to the old custom, this yard should be grandfather's. However, grandfather went out early and took root in other places. In addition, the relationship between the two brothers was very good. Therefore, after grandfather's father passed away, grandfather decided to give the yard to his younger brother.

For this reason, my grandmother and grandfather had a long time in a cold war.

My grandfather's father passed away in 1975. At that time, the yard was still in the country. Even though the yard was returned in 1986, in addition to the second grandfather's family, there were four families living in the yard, all of whom were rented houses.

These rented residents are not aggressive. Although the property rights of the yard have been returned to my second grandfather, if you want these rented residents to move out and enjoy the yard yourself, you will not be able to do it at that time.

This is also the unique "deadbeat" in Yanjing in the 1980s. There is no way. These rented residents were arranged by the government. If you ask them to move out, where will they live? If you ask them to move, they will be very reasonable and say: "If you ask me to move, where will I move? This house is allowed by the state, and we are not not paying the rent. Why do you let me move!"

Or it's like this: "Your house? The whole world belongs to the country. Do you dare to say that this is your house? I just don't move, what are you doing?" and so on.

This is the reason why the deadbeats in Yanjing used to swear the owners to be fooled by the housekeepers - it was very upright!

In fact, until now, there are still many courtyard houses in Yanjing that have always been in this form of "large courtyards". It is because the property rights at that time were unclear, which led to several families living in a yard.

Grandma has always had some opinions about the brother-in-law who gave her this yard. There is no way, the women of that era probably did not have such ideas.

However, when the property rights return procedures were completed, this yard was not valuable. It was probably only worth ten or 20,000 yuan. Moreover, the yard was not in good condition. It would cost a lot of money just for repairs every year. If it was rebuilt, it would cost at least a few tens of thousands of yuan.

In addition, there were so many "deadbeats" living in the yard, and they couldn't even drive them away, so my grandmother finally agreed to give this yard to her second grandfather.

At that time, no one would have thought that a broken yard that could be sold for up to 20,000 yuan in 1986 would have been conservatively estimated to exceed 45 million after thirty years.

However, the second grandfather also said that anyway, his three children all have their own houses to live in. After a hundred years, the yard will be sold, and the money sold will definitely be left to Yang Jing's uncle.

When Yang Jing flew to London for graduate school the year before yesterday, he stayed at his second grandfather for one night. The second grandfather took out his written will for Yang Jing and Yang Jing’s mother to see.

The old man knew it. Although his brother gave him this house for free, the old man did not forget his roots. He even wrote the will early.

After Yang Jing's mother went back, she told Yang Jing's grandmother about this. The old lady's resentment that had been suppressed for more than 30 years was completely gone.

Actually, this is a real relative.

What is a relative? Not only is a blood relationship called a relative. Only relatives who often think about each other are real relatives. Some relatives who are very close to each other do not even walk around due to conflicts such as this and that, and such relatives are not even as good as ordinary friends.

If you think about me and I think about your relatives like my grandfather and second grandfather, that is the real relative.

Yang Jing has been to the second grandfather’s yard many times, so he is naturally familiar with it.

After parking the car outside, Yang Jing walked towards his second grandpa's house with his things, and arrived at the field within a few minutes.

My second grandfather’s yard was applied for reconstruction in 2002, and it cost a lot of money at that time, but now it seems that the money spent at that time is nothing in the face of the housing prices that have surged over the years.

According to the second grandfather, when the yard was rebuilt, it cost 200,000 yuan to spend more than 200,000 yuan to spend more than 200,000 yuan when it was rebuilt. However, it is precisely because of the rebuilt that the yard is estimated at least 5 million yuan when it is estimated!

In fact, in 2013, a yard on the east side of my second grandfather's house, which was about the same size as this yard, was sold for 40 million yuan because it was not rebuilt. The yard on my second grandfather's house was 45 million yuan at that time.

Now the yard is where the second grandfather and the second grandmother live. However, because the second grandfather's great-granddaughter is at Toshikotsu Elementary School, the second grandfather's eldest son lives here with the old couple.

When Yang Jing entered the door, the old couple was sitting in a rocking chair and basking in the sun in the yard.

This winter, the sky in Yanjing was particularly blue. In previous years, the weather that could not see the moon at night and the sun during the day was almost gone. Although many netizens joked that this was "APEC blue", no matter what blue it was, it is undeniable that the government has vigorously improved the environment this year and achieved quite good results.

At least now, you can see stars at night in Yanjing and enjoy the sun during the day. This is something that the people of Yanjing have never enjoyed in the past five or six years...

At that time, Yanjing was really "working hard on haze, and not absorbing self-reliance"...

Yang Jing's arrival made the second grandfather and the old couple quite happy, and they held Yang Jing's hand and asked non-stop.

My second grandfather is in good health. At the age of 77 this year, he has no other problems except for his strong back and high blood pressure. However, my second grandmother, who has been working hard all her life, is getting worse and worse.

The second grandma is only 76 years old this year, but she looks older than the 80-year-old man. There is no way. The second grandma herself married from the suburbs of Yanjing to her second grandma's house. She has no job in this life. The nature of her work determines that the second grandma was less at home when she was young, so the burden of taking care of the entire family was on the second grandma.

One of the important reasons why Yang Jing's grandfather left this yard to his second grandfather was that Yang Jing's grandfather came out early in the army, and his parents at home had been living with his second grandfather. The second grandfather and the second grandfather took care of their parents for decades. This contribution alone was enough to make Yang Jing's grandfather give the yard to his second grandfather for free.

Almost all the family's food, drink, defecation, urination, and sleeping were on the shoulders of the second grandma. This hardworking and uneducated rural woman took care of the family day by day, silently dedicated to the family without regrets. As a result, when she was old, her health naturally became not very good.

The eldest son and the couple now live with the second elder, one to take care of the second elder, and the other to take care of the young grandson.

The second grandfather is now a serious four generations living together. Yang Jing’s cousin Li Yuhua - this cousin is not the cousin of the second aunt, but the eldest son of the second grandfather, and Yang Jing’s uncle Li Long’s uncle. He is already fifty-six years old this year, but he has been a grandfather for more than six years...

There is no way. The second grandfather of the old Li family got married and had children early, and Yang Jing's cousin became his grandfather at fifty. Now the youngest little guy is already in the first grade in September this year.

However, today the eldest cousin and the eldest cousin were not at home. They went to Tongxian to see their second aunt and second uncle. They probably won't be back until the afternoon.

But that doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you can't see your cousin and your cousin today. Anyway, Yang Jing has already planned to stay in Yanjing at this stage, and maybe he will actually study for Cai Yi's doctorate next year.

At noon, Yang Jing prepared six dishes by himself. He was definitely not an outsider when he arrived here. After his second grandfather drove an electric tricycle to bring back the youngest Li Xiang, the little guy, the four of them had a good meal.

Li Xiang is the great-grandson of his second grandfather. He is so elves and very likable. Yang Jing took out a Bodhisattva pendant carved in Hetian jade and gave it to the little guy. The second grandfather and the second grandmother didn't understand this, so they just thought it was a gift from Yang Jing, the cousin, to the child, and accepted it.

As a result, when Li Xiang's father, Yang Jing's cousin, saw this Bodhisattva pendant, he said that the pendant was definitely worth about one million yuan. The second grandfather was so scared that he put away the pendant that had been hanging around the little guy's neck.

The little guy is not light or heavy. If he falls and knocks, it is something worth millions...

This Bodhisattva pendant is really worth this money. Hetian jade, especially the high-end Hetian white jade, is not as valuable as the larger one. Of course, if it is as big as the piece of Hetian jade that Yang Jing untied, it would be a different matter. The piece of Hetian white jade that Yang Jing untied is a priceless treasure. In recent decades, we have almost never seen such a large and high-quality Hetian white jade.

Among the collection-level Hetian white jade, they are usually relatively small. For example, the 1A collection-level Hetian white jade, if the weight is within 200 grams, the price will exceed 10,000 yuan per gram early. This pendant is not small in size, and it is carved from the remaining material of the bracelet. One pendant weighs forty or fifty grams, and the raw materials alone will cost 400,000. In addition, this pendant was carved by Master Jiang Bin, the leader in jade carving in Beijing. The craftsmanship of this jade carving alone is worth at least 500,000!

After lunch, Yang Jing talked with the old couple for a while and asked the old couple to go for lunch. As for this little guy Li Xiang, he got familiar with this little cousin after having a meal and said that Yang Jing would send him to school no matter what.

The second grandpa and the second grandma went for lunch, and Yang Jing took the little guy away and went out. After driving the little guy to school, Yang Jing thought about it and drove straight to the Palace Museum.

Yang Jing was also holding the statue of Shiva, the Dance King, who was taking over the mortal descending from the Ganges. Yang Jing didn't want to collect this bronze statue, so he took this opportunity to find Cai Yi to see if he could sell the bronze statue through his hands.

After talking to Cai Yi on the road, when Yang Jing drove to Xihuamen, Cai Yi was waiting for Yang Jing at the door as usual.

Now for Cai Yi, Yang Jing is not just a junior, but this young man is also his current big money owner. The Qianlong blue and white five-bat holding a longevity ear bottle more than ten days ago has made Cai Yi profit a lot. After he took the bottle to Poly, all the senior executives praised Cai Yi's deal.

In the past two years, the price of porcelain in the third dynasty of the Qing Dynasty has increased. In 2015, a bottle of the same style was sold at a high price of 6.9 million Hong Kong dollars. The quality and size of this bottle exceeded the bottle that appeared at the auction in 2015. In addition, the price of porcelain in the third dynasty of the Qing Dynasty has risen in the past two years. If this bottle is sold, as long as it is well promoted, it can easily be sold at an eight-digit price.

For this purpose, Poly's senior management also specially rewarded Cai Yi with a total of one million.

This time, Cai Yi heard that Yang Jing had dressed up another bronze statue of India's national treasure, so how could he sit still?

For Yang Jing, the old objects he had at hand could be taken by anyone, but he still chose Cai Yi. Although Cai Yi and himself had two relationships between Yang Lao and Wang Jiazan’s parents, this kind of relationship that relies on external factors was not as reliable as the relationship he established himself.

Relying on the relationship between outsiders, it’s okay for Cai Yi to help you once or twice. If you have too many times, you will become unaware of the numbers.

It is still the relationship established through interest exchange that is stronger.
