Chapter 177: Going to get supplies back
After taking apart each painting, Han Ying found that most of them were landscape paintings, but there were also some flower, bird and figure paintings. Han Ying also saw two pieces of cursive calligraphy.
These are not considered to be very valuable paintings. Before the end of the world, Han Ying estimated that the most expensive painting would not be worth more than 500,000.
At present, we only know that the space will eat paintings, and the ancient painting is just her guess, but neither of them knows what kind of painting it is.
So Han Ying planned to buy all of them.
"There are 14 scrolls here in total. I want all of them. Please give me a price."
Han Ying rolled up the scrolls one by one and put them back into the box.
Mr. and Mrs. Old Li looked at each other. To be honest, they didn't know how to offer a price, after all, no one had ever come to them to buy this thing before.
"Can we discuss this first?"
Old Li looked at Han Ying and the others and said.
"Please."
There are quite a few scrolls, so it is normal to need to discuss them.
Old Li and his wife greeted Scar Wei, and then the three of them went into the room to discuss.
They have no experience, but their nephew should know something.
About five minutes later, three people walked out of the room.
"We discussed it. I actually have seven other paintings at home, but they were not well protected during the tsunami and got soaked in water. They have some flaws, so I didn't take them out."
After coming out of the room, Wang Xiuqin sat back in her previous position, glanced at the two of them, and continued:
"If you can accept our price, the remaining seven defective paintings will be given to you for free. Do you think that's okay?"
After Wang Xiuqin finished speaking, she looked at the two of them, wanting to get an answer from them.
"You tell me first."
Han Ying was determined to get these many paintings as long as she could accept the price they offered.
"200 kilograms of rice, 50 kilograms of potatoes and 20 liters of water."
After Wang Xiuqin finished speaking, the three of them looked at Han Ying and the others with anticipation.
The potatoes were brought by Scar Wei.
There is no sign of potatoes on the market yet. If he takes advantage of this opportunity, he might be able to exchange more things from some rich people.
"I can promise you the rest, but we didn't bring that much rice today. We only have 100 kilograms. Can I convert the remaining 100 kilograms of rice into 200 points for you?"
200 kilograms of rice is actually not a lot, but Lu Yuan knows that when doing business, you can't just agree to whatever the other party says.
"Can."
Old Li glanced at his nephew and only agreed after seeing him nod.
My nephew has a lot of people under him, and the purchase restrictions in shopping malls are not a big problem for him with a large population.
They can also receive admission fees every day, so they have no shortage of food.
The points can be used to allow subordinates to go to the mall to buy things every day, so there is no impact.
"The supplies are all in the car, come with us downstairs to move them."
So many things must have been placed in the car.
Wang Xiuqin went back to the house and took out the seven defective scrolls that she had promised to Han Ying and the others.
Then he took two more bags for them to pack.
Han Ying first took out 200 points from her backpack and gave them to Wang Xiuqin.
When they got downstairs, Han Ying was waiting outside the car while Lu Yuan went into the car to move supplies.
It took a while for Lu Yuan to come out of the car.
Han Ying knew that he was picking small potatoes inside.
It seems that I should pick out more and put them separately next time to avoid the trouble.
When they saw the sack of small potatoes, Old Li and his wife, as well as Scar Wei and the other two's eyes lit up.
Even if Scar Wei could collect the entrance fee at the night market, he would not be able to eat things that were not available on the market.
Potatoes, which once cost only a few cents per pound, have now become something that makes people drool at the sight of them.
"Um, Brother Tangyuan, Sister Tangyuan, can you please have a word with me for a moment?"
Scar Wei asked his younger brother to help his uncle move the things upstairs, while he rubbed his hands and looked at the two of them.
Although he was a man in his thirties and felt like he was being taken advantage of by calling them by their names, he didn't care.
These two people could easily take out so much food, they must be the middlemen.
These kinds of people are the easiest to deal with, just let them do the business.
Han Ying and Lu Yuan were both stunned when they heard the names they gave out randomly.
They didn't expect that Scar Wei could actually call out that.
"Go ahead?"
The three of them went around to the back of the car before Han Ying spoke.
“Are you guys reselling stuff?”
Scar Wei asked in a low voice.
Han Ying nodded: "You can say that."
"Good brother, can you help me keep an eye out for something?"
After Scar Wei finished speaking, he glanced at Han Ying, then leaned over and whispered something in Lu Yuan's ear.
Han Ying rolled her eyes. Did he really think she was deaf when they were so close?
She heard it all. Scar Wei was talking about the small umbrellas. He asked Lu Yuan to help him keep an eye out for the small umbrellas, the more the better.
"Ahem, if you want food or points, we can discuss it. I don't want it myself, and I know a lot of rich people."
Scar Wei gave another explanation after he finished speaking.
"Okay, we can ask for you, but we don't want points or food, we want scrolls, like the ones today."
Lu Yuan glanced at Han Ying, wondering if she had heard what he said just now.
"Thanks, brother. I'll keep an eye out for you too. I'm always at the night market. If you have any, you can come find me there. If you can't find any, you can come to my uncle's place. I also live in this neighborhood, in Building 8, Room 901."
Scar Wei patted Lu Yuan's arm directly, as if the two of them were really good brothers.
"You live in Building 8? Then do you know Building 1203?"
When Han Ying heard Scar Wei say that he lived in Building 8, she spoke directly.
"I know..I know. What happened to 1203?"
Scar Wei suddenly had a bad premonition.
There are five or six young people living in 1203. Those people came to him a few days ago and said they wanted to join his team and make a living.
"1203 was originally the home of a friend of mine. A few people stole the supplies and occupied the house. The reason why I came here with Lao Li was to take back my friend's home and his supplies."
This was indeed what Han Ying was planning just now. Judging from Scar Wei's tone, there seems to be some hidden secret?
"Is there such a thing? Then he must be severely punished. Come on, I will take you to get it back!"
Are you kidding? He still relies on these two people to help him earn points. How could he let a few new brothers who just took office ruin his good deeds?
Han Ying didn't expect that Scar Wei would agree so readily.
Although she and Lu Yuan could easily solve this problem, it would be nice to have someone to help.
Following Scar Wei, the three of them came to Room 1203, Building 8.
Everyone was sweating a lot as we climbed up, but no one cared.
"Let me knock."
Three people in 1203 went to the night market with him today, and there are still three people inside.
Scar Wei knocked for a while and the door was opened from the inside.
After opening it, Han Ying saw an acquaintance appear at the door.
She narrowed her eyes, and some not-so-good memories from her previous life suddenly appeared in her mind.
