Under Grandma Lu's expectant gaze, Zhao Xiangyun opened the cloth bag.
As expected, what was wrapped inside was a wooden box.
The wooden box was about as wide as Zhao Xiangyun's hand and as long as her two hands.
Furthermore, the appearance of the box was not bad.
It was carved with dragons and phoenixes, but the box had not been opened yet. Zhao Xiangyun could smell the sweet scent of wood.
It was yellow rosewood.
The yellow pear was the Wang Zhong Wang of the precious wood. Some people said that one inch yellow pear was one inch gold.
If what he said was true, then the value of this box alone was not small.
Zhao Xiangyun opened the box and inside the box, there was a pair of white jade bracelets.
The white jade was pure jade and had a warm and exquisite texture. It was extremely greasy and looked like a good piece of jade.
Zhao Xiangyun didn't know how to describe her feelings, but seeing the same texture of the jade bracelets, she had never heard of it before, nor had she seen it before.
Gold has a price, jade has no price.
Good jade was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
He could even get a sky-high price from the auction market.
"Grandma Lu, I can't accept this. It's too precious!"
Zhao Xiangyun returned the box to its owner.
She didn't think that the grain she'd given him was more valuable than this pair of white jade bracelets.
However, Grandma Lu was unwilling to take it, "Little girl, I know that you feel that our lives are difficult and you are not willing to accept our things. However, this thing really is nothing. "
In this era, a single piece of good jade could not even compare to one jin of grain.
It was even more incomparable to her and Longevity's lives.
"Little girl, when Changsheng and I were kicked out of the Lu family, although we didn't take away his parents' money and tickets, I did bring some of these things. Furthermore, they were all my dowry."
Lu Changsheng's parents' conditions were not bad, and the Grandma Lu's conditions were even better.
Her family used to be big landowners, and they had a lot of good stuff.
Later on, for some reason, she also kept proclaiming to the public that she had lost her family. Other than the wages of her son and daughter-in-law, she had nothing else.
Originally, Grandma Lu had wanted to find a suitable time to bring those things to the black market to exchange for food.
But she and Changsheng, an old and a young one.
Firstly, he didn't know what was going on in the black market, and secondly, he was afraid of being caught. The current days couldn't be maintained.
Grandma Lu said while begging Zhao Xiangyun to take the thing.
"Little girl, do you think it's to let me, an old woman, feel at ease?"
Zhao Xiangyun was helpless, and could only accept the pair of white jade bracelets.
Forget it, if worst comes to worst, she'll just have to take care of a few more grandfathers and grandsons.
In any case, the Gathering Pellet was able to copy an infinite amount of things. She was not worried about eating it, and at Grandma Lu, it would not be too bad.
As she thought about it, Zhao Xiangyun picked up the basket that she placed in the corner and took out a bag of food from inside. It was a 20 jin bag of rice.
He handed the rice to Grandma Lu.
Grandma Lu was completely dumbfounded.
"Miss Xiangyun, this..."
"These are fine grains. I was going to get them from the black market and exchange them with someone else. Now, I'll give them all to you!" Zhao Xiangyun said.
Grandma Lu took the food and tears flowed out of her eyes.
"Thank you …" "Thank you!"
"You don't have to be too polite, the bracelet you gave me, I know it's worth a lot." Zhao Xiangyun said.
After a moment of silence, the Grandma Lu opened her mouth, "Miss Xiangyun, if you still have more food, can you trade with me? I still have some things. "
Those things were things that the Grandma Lu trembled with fear, afraid that someone would discover and harm both her and her longevity.
It would be better to exchange it for food, as it would at least be able to preserve her and Longevity's lives.
Of course, she would also leave some for Longevity. When he grew older, he would be able to protect himself, and he would be able to rely on those things to live a good life.
Zhao Xiangyun did not say anything. Grandma Lu thought that she was unwilling and quickly replied, "Don't worry, I won't let you suffer a loss."
"No, Grandma Lu, that's not what I meant."
Zhao Xiangyun's business purpose was actually to exchange for some money or antiques.
When the days in the future passed, he would rely on his wealth to live a good life.
Since the Grandma Lu had already suggested it, she didn't have anything else to say.
"Alright!" Zhao Xiangyun nodded.
Hearing this, Grandma Lu had an excited expression.
Just as she was about to thank him, she heard Zhao Xiangyun say, "Grandma Lu, if you want to thank him, then don't say it, I have taken advantage of you."
"No …" "No." Grandma Lu shook her head. She felt that she and Changsheng had gotten the upper hand.
He didn't need to go to the black market, he could even trade for food.
Not to mention saving his strength, the most important thing was his safety.
"However, Grandma Lu, you should not tell Changsheng about this matter."
The fewer people knew about the black market transaction, the better.
After all, it was not something that could be said in public.
"I know!"
Zhao Xiangyun helped the Grandma Lu to separate the rice and hid it in a few spots.
In the cabinet, in the earthenware jar, and in the corner, in a slit after the brick had been removed.
He had no choice, he had to be on guard against others.
The Grandma Lu could not guarantee that all the people who came to her house were good people.
If she met a bad one, the food she had spent so much effort to gather might just be gone.
Zhao Xiangyun calculated the time and felt that it was about time.
She had to go and find Jiang Weimin.
He then said to Grandma Lu: "Grandma Lu, it's getting late. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first!"
Grandma Lu looked lost, but she also understood that everyone had their own matters to attend to.
Even if she wanted to see Zhao Xiangyun, she couldn't force him to stay.
"Little girl, if there's a chance next time, come visit us at home again. Changsheng likes you very much."
When Zhao Xiangyun still hadn't arrived, her longevity had always been as long as Big Sister Xiangyun's and as short as her.
He was someone he had only met twice, but it felt like he had known her for many years.
Grandma Lu had the same feeling, as soon as she saw Zhao Xiangyun, she felt that it was as if she had seen an old friend at first sight.
Subconsciously, he trusted Zhao Xiangyun completely.
"Good!" I'll come over when I have time. "
Zhao Xiangyun also liked longevity quite a bit, and the Grandma Lu gave her a very intimate feeling.
Knowing that Zhao Xiangyun was about to leave, although Changsheng was reluctant, he did not urge him to stay.
He sent Zhao Xiangyun to the main street and watched him leave.
Waiting until Zhao Xiangyun's figure completely disappeared from her sight, only then did she return home to take care of her grandmother.
Zhao Xiangyun returned to the agreed location with Jiang Weimin.
Jiang Weimin arrived a little earlier than her, but he was still the one waiting for her.
Seeing Zhao Xiangyun, Jiang Weimin heaved a sigh of relief.
He directly said to Zhao Xiangyun: "Let's go to the supply shop to take a look, and then we'll go to the department store, alright?"
Of course Zhao Xiangyun had no objections.
In this era, there wasn't much to see except the supply and marketing department stores.
Then there were the food stores.
Either they buy food or they use it.
When Jiang Weimin and Zhao Xiangyun arrived at the supply shop, they immediately went to the place that sold cloth.
He wanted to choose a beautiful cloth for Zhao Xiangyun and then find someone to make clothes for him to see.
"Take a look, what color do you like, choose a few more and make some clothes." Jiang Weimin said generously.
