Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

Chapter 906: Chapter 906: Harvest

But this wooden box is quite old. This guy probably doesn’t know the value of these things, or he only has a partial understanding.

”Comrade, I want all four strings. You give me the remaining jade stones as a gift.”

”That’s not possible, no matter how, it’s worth two dollars each. I’ll give you four pieces at most, you can choose by yourself.”

”I won’t bother choosing. These look like there are only twenty or so pieces. How about I give you an extra twenty dollars, and you give them all to me.”

”Alright. Old comrade, you really know how to buy things.”

Shang Zhenkun glanced at Jiang Feifei, and the little girl understood, took off the bag, and handed it to Shang Zhenkun.

He took out a bundle, counted out sixteen sheets, and handed the rest to that person. ”Count them.”

”Ho, old master, you’re quite something. Look, I have a lot of paintings and unique manuscripts here, do you want them?” Actually, he was eyeing the remaining money in Shang Zhenkun’s hand.

”Hehe, those are even less valuable.”

”You have a good eye, let me take you to have a look. Maybe you’ll fancy something. I’m not going to deceive you. Once I sell off these things from home, I’m moving out of town.”

”Moving out of town?”

”Yes, my wife and kids have left, it’s just me going to live with relatives.”

Shang Zhenkun didn’t believe a word he said, but it looked like he truly wanted to leave.

”Alright, let’s go have a look.”

Turning to the back room, there were several old elm wood boxes.

”Take a look, they’re all here. This box contains paintings and calligraphy. Let me tell you, these were all collected by important people before, even though they’re out of fashion now, I think good things are always good things.

I’ve disgraced my ancestors. These things have just been neglected in my hands. If it weren’t for my unstable situation, these items would’ve been gone long ago.” He sighed after speaking.

Jiang Feifei couldn’t wait to open the box. Seeing the neatly preserved books, her heart jumped to her throat.

They’re all good items, definitely worth collecting.

The other three boxes were opened as well, the paintings were all rolled into scrolls. When opened, Jiang Feifei could barely contain her expression.

Shang Zhenkun noticed this. So he looked at that person, ”Comrade, how much are you planning to sell these for?”

”Give me two hundred for this.”

”Two hundred?”

”If that’s not possible, then just give me all the remaining money in your hand.”

”Comrade, if you sell these at the scrap station, it’s only a few dollars, but you’re asking so much from me for them? That’s not fair.”

”You can’t compare these with scrap. These are good things.”

”Alright, I won’t make it hard for you. You send these back for me, and I’ll give you all the remaining money.”

”I won’t go.” Could it be they’re trying to trick me out and then rob the money?

”But we can’t carry so many boxes.”

”Then I’ll give you the cart in the yard. How about that?”

”Fine, my old arms and legs, along with the three little ones here, comrade, can’t you just do a good deed and help us deliver it?”

”Old master, I’m not in good health, I can’t pull the cart.”

Jiang Feifei looked at him and really wanted to laugh. So timid.

After checking the cart, there were no problems. Then they started loading. Fortunately, the box holding the books was made of old elm wood, not conspicuous. Otherwise, in broad daylight, we wouldn’t dare to move.

The two adults loaded five boxes, and the last box filled with treasures was also placed on the cart.

”Comrade, this is too conspicuous.”

”Old comrade, I have no other choice. How about you wait until it’s dark to leave?”

That would be even less safe. It’s better now, fewer people on the road.

It’s not far from the house Mom bought. Just send it there directly. We must use the home cellar to conceal it and then store it in the space.

This really is fate. Jiang Feifei felt that the heavens really wanted to send these things into their hands.

She went to pull on Shang Zhenkun’s hand. ”Let this uncle help us out of the alley.”

”Okay, no problem, absolutely no problem. I’ll take you to the main road. Don’t worry, I often haul things out to sell, the neighbors are used to it, and no one pays attention.”

A prodigal, just a prodigal.

Shang Zhenkun pulled the cart in front, the three kids pushed from behind.

Jiang Feifei ran to the front, ”Master Shang, let’s go to my house, I have the key. It’s just in the alley ahead.”

”Alright.” The less time spent outside, the safer it is.

All four of them were on edge, afraid of being stopped, but perhaps, as Jiang Feifei thought, heaven wanted her to have them, so they didn’t encounter anyone along the way.

It wasn’t until they closed the courtyard gate that the four of them felt at ease.

”Master Shang, let’s store these directly in my home’s cellar. Or should we call my dad over? I’m afraid you’re too tired.”

”Okay, let’s go back and get your dad.”

”Master Shang, I heard my dad say they won’t be home this afternoon.” Jianbin said with a frown.

”In that case, let’s do it ourselves.”

Anyway, there’s time. The four of them couldn’t manage to move it, and eventually, they let the kids carry the books in first, then the boxes, making it much easier and more efficient.

”Master Shang, let’s not pack the books into boxes right away, there are bags at home, we can put them directly in bags, I’ll wait below, you pass the boxes down one by one, and then pass the books too, I can sort them by myself below.”

”Alright, that’s more efficient.” Can’t deny getting old, no longer able to do physical work. Feifei’s idea is good.

”I’ll accompany my sister down.” Shi Jing said firmly.

”I’ll go too.”

”Alright, the three of you stay down there.”

Jianbin was the first to go down, with Shi Jing shining a flashlight for him.

Feifei went down second, and Shi Jing went last.

It took the four of them nearly two hours to finally sort everything out.

”Brother Jianbin, you go up, brother you follow too, I’ll be last.”

”No, you go up second.”

Feifei tugged on Shi Jing’s hand, and only then did her brother reluctantly go up.

Jiang Feifei quickly packed away the six boxes before going up.

Shang Zhenkun tidied up outside, ”Let’s hurry back, they might be worried.”

The cart was directly pushed to the woodshed, locked the door, and the four hurried off to the bus stop.

It was almost dark, just about closing time, so there were many people. They couldn’t even get on the bus.

”Master Shang, let’s walk back.”

”Alright, better than waiting for a bus. It’s just ten stops anyway.”

Passing by the post office, it’s just about to close, ”Jianbin, do you know your home phone number?”

”Yes.”

”Great, let’s call them to put their minds at ease.”

Many good words were said before they let us use the phone.
