Chapter 446 Old man Bei Regrets It to Death

Xiao Hua just laughed: “If you think it’s an antique, why not take it to the market for sale, see if anyone will buy yours.”

Old man Bei choked, these jars are so ugly, who would want them?

As for the antique pricing, everyone knows antiques are expensive, but no one knows where to sell them. Besides, if it really is an antique dug out from the ground, it must be handed over to the state, how can it be sold privately?

Old man Bei was still not satisfied: “If it’s not an antique, why would you buy it?”

Mengyu smiled: “We just like the look of these jars. Is it wrong to buy them and build a wall with them?

However, now that I think about it, your jars are either crooked or skewed, and really not suitable for use. Never mind, I don’t want them anymore.”

Old man Bei was helpless and had to say: “Alright, three yuan it is, I’ll sell them all to you.”

But Mengyu responded: “Sorry, your jars are too crooked and skewed, I don’t really want them for building a wall.”

Then Old man Bei was stunned. Didn’t they like these jars? They actually don’t want them now?

An old man anxiously said to Mengyu: “My son also has about ten jars, but he’s not back from work yet. Can you wait a bit?”

Mengyu thought for a moment and said: “Alright, since the elder asked us to wait, let’s not hurry to leave.”

Mengyu then turned to Shen Qi and the others: “Since we’re here, let’s just treat it as a trip for some fun. I see the scenery behind the village is quite beautiful. Let’s go there to see if we can catch a couple of rabbits to roast and eat, waiting for the members to come back from their work.”

Talking, she went back to the truck bed, and took out a small hoe, a kindling knife, and a spade.

Wu Jiangsheng was surprised: “Big sister, you came prepared.”

Mengyu was a bit embarrassed, these naturally came from the ring.

Fortunately, the small hoe and kindling knife were small and easy to hide, only the spade was a bit conspicuous.

“I just left them in the truck bed before, you didn’t notice.”

Then she said to Ah Xin: “Ah Xin, you stay here, if someone comes to sell jars, just buy them at the price we said before.”

Ah Xin naturally agreed: “Don’t worry, Boss.”

Once Wu Jiangshan heard about going up the mountain, he immediately shouted: “Let’s go, we’re going to hunt rabbits on the mountain!”

So, several young men and women shouted and swarmed towards the back mountain.

Some villagers couldn’t help but smile. Wild rabbits in the back mountain were not so easy to catch.

Some well-intentioned people even shouted a few times: “Be careful not to go into the deep mountains, there are big creatures in there. You bookworms, don’t get taken away by a big creature.”

Mengyu turned around and thanked them: “Don’t worry, we know what we’re doing.”

As soon as Mengyu and the others left, Old man Bei quickly grabbed Ah Xin: “You—Young man, we all agreed yesterday, three yuan per jar, I’ll sell you as many as I have.”

Ah Xin shook his head: “Old man Bei, if you hadn’t demanded thirty yuan, you would have had three hundred and three yuan in your hands by now.”

Old man Bei bitterly smiled: “Wasn’t I pricing them as antiques? I just heard last night that a son-in-law who manages the landlord’s house in our village sold an antique bottle last month for three hundred yuan. Although my jars are not as pretty as his bottle, they could surely sell for thirty yuan, right?”

Ah Xin then understood why the agreed price from yesterday afternoon changed today—it turns out that Old man Bei sought advice last night.

He felt a sudden tremor in his heart. If his Master is buying these things, they must not let the word spread wrongly. Otherwise, the charge of purchasing cultural relics could come down, and that might be too much to bear.
