Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 947: Chapter 943: Do you sell this cart?

Song Chaojing has always been clever. She had already heard the two of them using Huaxia language to communicate, so she guessed they should be Huaxia people. That’s why she used Chinese to reprimand the young man who had bumped into someone.

Unexpectedly, her spontaneous use of Huaxia language caused the man opposite to misunderstand, mistakenly thinking Song Chaojing was in league with the old man, instantly displaying a look of disdain: ”Modern crafts, you can buy a dozen of these things for a hundred yuan back home!”

On the side, Huo Sining couldn’t help but sneer: ”So what? Even if these broken ceramics are cheap, what direct relation does that have to you bumping into someone and apologizing? If you had broken Yuan Blue and White, would you be willing to bankrupt yourselves for compensation? Such differential treatment—do you think because things are cheap, you can bully others? You somehow managed to come out of the Huaxia Country’s gates, but you don’t understand the slightest bit of justice and shame?”

The young man had originally planned to retaliate, but just at that moment, a flash of magnesium light passed from among the onlookers. The older middle-aged man turned around and saw people of interest either raising their phones or holding cameras, all taking pictures of the scene before them.

The middle-aged man’s face suddenly changed, a panic flashed in his eyes, he hastily stopped the young man who was about to continue to argue shamelessly, turned back towards the old man and forced out an awkward laugh: ”Old man, we are terribly sorry, it’s our fault. Sorry about this. We’ll compensate for the broken ceramics!”

Saying this, the middle-aged man turned back and signaled to the young man, saying: ”Zong Pei, pay!”

The young man heard and his expression stiffened, stubbornly refusing to compromise. The middle-aged man was slightly annoyed, noticing more and more people gathering among the bystanders, he couldn’t help but sternly shout: ”Zong Pei!”

Hearing the middle-aged man’s raised tone, the young man trembled all over, looked up and cast a venomous glance at Huo Sining and Song Chaojing, then reluctantly pulled out a wad of Dongyang currency from his backpack and directly threw it at the old man.

The banknotes flew, and a look of arrogance and mockery appeared in the young man’s eyes: ”No need to count them! This money is enough for you to buy a truckload of this junk. You and your partner are really getting a huge bargain this time!”

After saying this, the young man turned around and left directly behind the middle-aged man.

Song Chaojing wanted to pursue them, but she was held back by Huo Sining. Huo Sining squatted down and carefully gathered the banknotes from the ground, counting them briefly. There were approximately ten thousand, but converted to Huaxia currency, it was only five or six hundred yuan. However, for compensating the few smashed and worthless small ceramics, it was indeed overpaid.

Huo Sining let out a long sigh and then stuffed the money into the old man’s hand.

The old man, although unable to understand Huaxia language, clearly saw the young man’s arrogant behavior and disdainful expression. He felt insulted and was unwilling to accept the money.

Huo Sining sighed internally and used her clumsy Dongyang language to persuade him several times, finally calming the old man’s reluctance and allowing him to accept the money.

After such an uproar, the old man naturally lost the mood to set up his stall and prepared to turn the cart and push the goods back. Seeing this, Huo Sining and the others hurriedly reached out to help the old man, but as they pushed, Huo Sining’s hand grasped the wooden cart handle and paused.

”Sister Ningning, put some strength into it, otherwise the cart won’t move!”

Huo Sining came back to her senses, smiled, and exerted strength, helping push the old man’s wooden cart. However, her gaze was flickering, and she unconsciously glanced at the wooden cart beneath her.

Song Chaojing and Nara Nigawa didn’t notice Huo Sining’s distraction and worked together to help the old man push the cart. Soon, the cart was pushed out of the back street into a small alley.

”Alright. There are no tourists here anymore. You don’t need to push any further, I can do it myself.”

The old man apologized to Huo Sining and the others, and Song Chaojing, quite boldly, waved her hand without care after hearing Nara Nigawa’s translation, and laughed:

”You’re welcome. It’s just a small effort. Besides, today’s incident was because some of our fellow countrymen were rude. We did this to apologize to you. We hope you won’t hold any grudge against Huaxia because of today’s incident. Most Huaxia people are kind-hearted good people!”

The old man smiled and said a few words, turned around and was about to push the cart away. But before exerting force, Huo Sining suddenly spoke: ”Wait a moment!”

Not only the old man was stunned, but so were Song Chaojing and Nara Nigawa.

Huo Sining laughed calmly: ”Old gentleman, this wooden cart looks like an old item. I’m wondering how much it would cost to hand it over?”

Upon Huo Sining’s question, Song Chaojing and Nara Nigawa instinctively glanced at the wooden cart.

The paint layer on the old wooden surface was mottled to the point of near peeling off, one side of the long wooden shaft was broken, fixed by someone with another long wooden stick. Both axle tracks were broken several times and replaced with iron bars. The wooden cart looked dilapidated, clearly showing it was used by a lower-class family as a transport tool.

Song Chaojing and Nara Nigawa couldn’t understand why Huo Sining asked such a question. Is she interested in this flatbed cart? But what’s there to be interested in about such a cart?

Regardless of her companions’ confusion and misunderstanding, Huo Sining just looked directly at the old man: ”If you are willing to part with this wooden cart, I’d like to buy it. Of course, if you feel it’s inconvenient, I can also buy all the ceramics on this cart. Just name your price!”

Now, not only were Song Chaojing and Nara Nigawa, but also the old man dumbfounded.

Every household in their village has a wooden cart like this. Because it was broken before, he simply patched it up with a board and iron rod, barely usable but not presentable. Such a wooden cart is worthless, even if thrown on the side of the road, no one would care.

Now a well-bred young girl suddenly opened her mouth to say she wanted to buy his wooden cart, and the old man felt utterly puzzled, thinking Huo Sining was joking and making fun of him.

Huo Sining’s gaze was clear and composed. She directly took out a stack of brand-new banknotes from her backpack and said to the old man: ”I’m not joking with you. For this cart and all the ceramics on it, I’m offering two million Dongyang currency. What do you think?”
