Chapter 108 Silver
Because Bai Tang and his group will be returning to the Shengshi base with Chen Weiliang's convoy in a while.
However, there are some things that don't need to be explained so clearly to others.
The two agreed to exchange goods for money.
Qian Duoduo and Bai Tang told him his home address.
Qian Duoduo told Bai Tang, "If it's a transaction early in the morning, just come to my stall and find me."
My sister and I were at home during the hottest part of the day.
We usually stay at the stall in the evenings, worried that the two of you might come to my house only to find it empty.
When it's time to make the transaction, I'd appreciate it if you two could come and let me know beforehand.
Bai Tang said, "It's okay, we don't have anything to do here for the time being anyway."
You can take your time looking for buyers; we'll be going now.
Qian Duoduo saw the two out of the tent: "Take care, you two."
After Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu walked away, Qian Xinxin came over and asked Qian Duoduo:
What are those two selling?
Qian Duoduo mysteriously pulled his younger sister into the tent and said:
"Little sister, we're going to get rich!"
The thing these two important people want to sell is something our base doesn't even have. Do you know what that means?
Although their base officials brought quite a few, no one else had this; we were the only ones with it.
Then Qian Duoduo took out the snow fruit that she had just cut open and handed it to her younger sister.
Qian Duoduo said, "Little sister, try it first before you speak."
Qian Xinxin took the white fruit from her brother's hand; the fruit felt a little hard to the touch.
It smelled alright, so Qian Xinxin took a bite.
I was instantly amazed by the icy coolness of the snow fruit ice.
Qian Xin stared wide-eyed at her own brother: "Brother, is this really what those two people were trying to sell?"
Qian Xin also said sensibly, "Brother, we'll eat together too."
Qian Duoduo nodded and said, "We're going to get rich. When that happens, I'll let you eat meat at the base canteen every day."
Although Qian Duoduo can contribute so many contribution points at once, they are quite frugal with their daily meals.
With the other contribution points they had accumulated, they recently bought a small courtyard house, big enough for the two of them to live in.
So this time I can make a lot of money, and with more money, I can take better care of my younger sister.
That 15,000 contribution points was the highest price Qian Duoduo could offer. He kept a total of 15,100 contribution points as capital for acquiring items.
...
While Qian Duoduo and her brother were enjoying themselves, Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu strolled around the other stalls after they came out.
Bai Tang's main concern was whether she could find a bargain and collect some gold for Mu Mu.
She asked in her mind, "Mumu, take a look and see where there is spiritual energy. Remember to tell me, and I'll go and retrieve it for you to use."
Mu Mu replied, "Okay~ Thank you, Sister Tangtang~"
Then Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu walked and looked around, while Mu Mu went to find out which stalls had real gold for sale.
After walking around for most of the way without any movement from Mu Mu, just when Bai Tang thought that Mu Mu was no longer there...
Mu Mu spoke in her mind: "Sister Tangtang~ I've got it~"
Bai Tang asked it in her mind, "Where? Which stall?"
Mu Mu said, "It's that little silver ornament at the stall to your right."
Bai Tang turned her head with a hint of doubt and looked over. The stall owner was a middle-aged woman.
Bai Tang pulled Gu Yanxu to that stall.
Seeing that some people were looking at things, the stall owner quickly asked, "Is there anything you two like?"
Gu Yanxu said, "Let's take a look first."
Bai Tang was wondering why Mu Mu wanted money this time.
Mu Mu answered her question: "That little ornament is silver-plated gold, with pure gold inside and a layer of silver on the outside."
Bai Tang understood; this must have been a decoration deliberately made by someone.
Bai Tang pretended to look at some other things displayed on the stall.
Finally, my gaze fell upon the small silver ornament.
Bai Tang randomly pointed to a few items at the stall, including that small ornament.
"Boss, I want these three items. How many contribution points do they cost in total? Or do you want something else?"
The shopkeeper glanced at the three items Bai Tang pointed to, and then said:
"Although it's not very valuable, this ornament is worth silver. So, it's fifty contribution points in total. You can take it; I won't ask you for more."
Bai Tang readily paid the contribution points and let Gu Yanxu take the three items he had chosen.
Gu Yanxu didn't understand why Bai Tang bought these things.
But in his opinion, everything Bai Tang buys must be useful.
Bai Tang would tell him when the time was right, so he didn't bother to ask.
Bai Tang also collected quite a few gold ornaments from the stall.
These are all pieces of gold that Mumu has discovered that it can use.
Bai Tang bought them all, collecting about two hundred grams of gold in small quantities.
Gu Yanxu obediently followed behind his wife, carrying her bag.
However, there wasn't much gold here, and Bai Tang's acquisition didn't attract much attention from others.
After they had bought almost everything, Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu got into their car and left.
Gu Yanxu was driving on the way back. By then, the temperature outside had started to rise again, day after day.
Gu Yanxu drove back to the Gu family home, and Lin Zhou opened the door.
The three of them went inside and saw what the other people in the living room looked like.
Grandpa Gu showed no signs of being an elder, and played cards with Lin Fan and the others on a cushion in the middle of the living room.
The mat and playing cards were what Lin Fan asked Bai Tang for when she left home that morning.
At that time, Lin Fan said, "I was worried that Grandpa would be bored, so my sister-in-law left us some foam mats and playing cards so that we could keep Grandpa entertained."
Before leaving, Bai Tang gave them some foam mats and playing cards.
I didn't expect them to have so much fun.
When Grandpa Gu saw Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu return, he excitedly called out to them:
"Tangtang, Xiaoxu, do you two want to play a game together? This card game is really interesting."
Gu Yanxu took off his shoes and stepped onto the foam mat, saying, "Come on, let me play a game with Grandpa."
Bai Tang said, "I'll just watch you guys play. You guys play, I need to talk to Mu Mu."
Grandpa Gu didn't force Bai Tang; he turned around and started playing cards with Lin Fan and the others again.
Bai Tang went to the kitchen, then turned around and went into the space to give Mu Mu the gold she had collected that day.
Mu Mu went to absorb spiritual energy with great excitement.
Bai Tang picked some fruits that didn't need to be peeled before eating.
I'm planning to take some out for them to eat, and also to give Grandpa some vitamins.
Soon Bai Tang came out of the kitchen carrying a basin, then took a stool and put the fruit on it.
Bai Tang said, "There's some fruit here. Anyone who wants some can take it. After you're done eating, just throw the pits in the trash can, and I'll take care of them."
Grandpa Gu bluntly instructed his grandson, "Xiao Xu, get me a pear."
