Villager Finds Priceless Golden Phoebe While Cutting Firewood on the Mountain, Makes His Son Drop Out of School to Guard It Day and Night
They say opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared, but sometimes heaven drops a huge fortune on you when you least expect it! One day, an enormous fortune landed right on an ordinary farmer. Just like any other day, he went up the mountain to cut firewood, but little did he know that luck was about to smile on him! He accidentally came across an extremely rare, top-quality piece of timber - the kind you might not see in a hundred years!
After appraisal by local timber merchants who know their trade, it was indeed confirmed to be precious golden phoebe (Phoebe zhennan). Judging by this batch of timber, its market value should be in the millions! When the farmer heard this news, he was overjoyed. He had farmed all his life - how could he have ever seen a million yuan? Just thinking about it scared him! He still had to work himself, and he was afraid the treasure might be stolen before it could be sold, so he made his son drop out of school to guard the timber day and night!
So far, the boy has been guarding this batch of timber for two days. During this time, many people came, drawn by its reputation, to inspect the goods, but in the end none of the deals went through because the price was too high.
Considering that his father had to busy himself with farm work during the day and also had to contact wealthy timber merchants to come and inspect the goods, he really was busy and exhausted. The boy was quite willing to help his father lighten the burden a little - especially since this treasure could give their family a good life from then on!
When the boy got bored, he would play with his phone a bit. In any case, he could no longer study with peace of mind. People coming to look at the timber arrived in wave after wave, and there was never enough time to sit down and study properly, so he simply gave up and focused on guarding these treasures!
If you look closely at these pictures, we can also clearly see that this rather unremarkable-looking rough timber is indeed the quite valuable golden phoebe. Based on current market conditions, this is enough to cover a rural family's expenses for several years! It really is no wonder this farmer was so overjoyed that he made his son drop out of school to guard this treasure!
