Chapter 1484 Good Man

Lao Meng smiled and said, "Then let's go into the private room. It's not convenient outside."

The shopkeeper here is the cousin of the shopkeeper Lao Meng in the capital. He is in charge of several shops in the county town and was also the first person to follow Xiao Tongran.

He knew a lot, and after looking at the jewelry on the table he knew it was a good thing.

"Master, we don't have this business now. Besides, this jade is not valuable now. No one is willing to buy it. It can't be compared with gold and silver, which can be circulated, but now these can't be circulated as currency."

"Meng, what do you think of the quality of this thing?"

“They are all good things.”

"What do you think is a suitable price?"

Old Meng immediately understood what the Taoist meant.

"There is no market for this kind of jewelry right now, and the price is not good. It's hard to say."

Cao Qingping was listening to this and became anxious.

Listening to what the shopkeeper said, I felt even more uneasy.

"Shopkeeper Meng, this fellow wants a uniform price of five dollars per piece."

"To be honest, the price is not high, but no one wants it. I can keep it. Maybe it will be worth a fortune in a few decades, but it is definitely not easy to sell it now."

The old Taoist looked at Cao Qingping and said, "You heard it too. This is the market situation now. You can keep it if you can."

Cao Qingping was about to cry, "Master, I've already said, why are we still waiting for the money? Without the money, what will we do with so many people?"

"But if you sell it at this price now, you will be blamed in the future. You have to think it over carefully."

"I know that too. I'll explain it to everyone when I get back. But let's just buy it this time."

The old Taoist nodded and said, "Shopkeeper Meng, please check these. If the quality is OK, you can take them for five dollars each."

"I will definitely obey the Taoist priest's instructions. I will check and count them right away."

The seven people in the village all breathed a sigh of relief. This Taoist priest was really a good person.

Shopkeeper Meng checked each one, but he didn't really understand much. However, these things were old, and a good thing was a good thing, and an outsider could still tell whether it was good or bad.

Finally, it was counted that there were thirty-eight items in the three packages, plus the two paintings, the total was one hundred and ninety-six yuan.

"Master, you didn't bring so much money with you, did you? I'll pay for you first."

"Okay, Chen Miao will give you the money tomorrow."

"No problem, I'll do the paperwork for them right away."

Lao Meng also understood that these jewellery belonged to many people. Although there were seven people here, they should be representatives. Lao Meng gave the procedures, clearly writing down the number of jewellery, ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, how much each piece cost, and how much in total.

Cao Qingping was very touched. This was definitely a legitimate and conscientious merchant. He told everyone to patronize this grocery store more often in the future.

After the payment was made, the people in the village breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay. You guys should go back quickly too."

"Master, how can we find you? If we all agree to sell it, we still need you to find a way for us."

The old Taoist laughed and said, "Then come here and look for it. Okay, since we are destined to be together, I can take all of yours."

"Thank you, thank you, Taoist priest, you are truly a benefactor of our village."

The old Taoist smiled and waved his hand, carrying the box and sour pears prepared by Shopkeeper Meng and leaving. Cao Qingping and the others also thanked Shopkeeper Meng profusely.

On the way back to the hotel, all seven of them felt a lot more relaxed.

Even Gangzi, who is a chatterbox, held back and didn't say anything outside.

It was not until we arrived at the hotel and entered the single room that we spoke excitedly.

"Uncle Wu, there are actually more good people. I didn't expect that the Taoist priest would really buy these useless things at the price you said."

Cao Qingping sighed, "I feel embarrassed. In fact, I left room for bargaining, but he was really generous and didn't bargain."

"Dad, is five dollars a lot? Didn't the shopkeeper say that it might be a sky-high price in a few decades?"

"But can we survive for decades? We have to go down the mountain, but how are we going to place it? It's hard to survive now, so how can we keep it here?
We only have so much food. Even if we buy some from the foot of the mountain every year, it’s still not enough. If something unexpected happens, we won’t have anything to eat.

We are afraid that we will be discovered in the future, and if someone wants our things, we will be left with nothing.”

Now the five young men said nothing.

"Okay, let's eat and leave early tomorrow. Let's go back and discuss with everyone. If they really offer 1.8 yuan, we have no money and need it, so we'll sell it at that price."

The six young men all reacted and said, yes, they were waiting to use the money to build a house.

"Uncle Wu, how about we go ask the base if there's a plane tomorrow?"

"Don't ask. We can't always beg people. I thought if they agree to sell the jewelry, we can ask them to ship it down by plane.

I thought that if I sold it, I would have to arrest the Taoist priest. It would be unfair to do so, but we were really in trouble. We had no choice but to do something unscrupulous like this."

The six young people were silent. Gangzi and the other five had no objection. Cao Xuemei didn't want to go back, but she knew her father would never agree to let a girl like her stay at the foot of the mountain.

Fortunately, we are all about to move down the mountain. Although we don’t live in the county town, it is not far away. I will definitely have time to come in and visit.

Gangzi took the dry food he brought to find the waiter, who kindly helped steam the dry food so that at least he could eat it hot.

Cao Qingping and his father were the only ones left in the room. "Dad, do you think everyone can agree to sell the things our ancestors left behind?"

“If I don’t agree, I will really be out of money. If I don’t come down the mountain, I will have no money to buy food. How will I survive then?

The money left by our ancestors has been almost spent. There is nothing left that can be used. Only these things that we thought were good things and could be sold for a lot of money, who knew that they were the least valuable? "

"That's about the same. It's just a little less than one ounce of gold."

"Yes, we should be content. If we hadn't met this Taoist priest, our life would have been much more difficult."

"Dad, don't think about it. Let's discuss it together when we get back. If anyone doesn't want to sell, give them their things. Don't wait until you get blamed later."

"Go back and discuss this with your Third Master and the others. This is really a worrying matter."

"Dad, you and my grandfather are doing very well. You have persisted for so many years despite such difficulties."

"Well, I don't want others to think I'm good. As long as I have a clear conscience and do my best for everyone, that's enough."

"You deserve everyone."

"Silly girl, others may not think so. Fortunately, the shopkeeper gave us the receipt. Otherwise, when we go back, someone will definitely suspect that we took money from it."

"Humph, there are always a few families with a lot of trouble."

"There are still many people who understand. Besides, everyone knows who they are." He said a few words to comfort his daughter.
