Shen Qingli turned around and saw that it was her elder brother Shen Qingyu who came to help.
He stood beside a broken mahogany bed that he had just inspected.
The secret compartment that I had never found was somehow opened by my elder brother by accident.
Shen Qingli couldn't see clearly what was inside, but the golden thing must be gold or something.
Shen Qingli quickly looked around and saw that she had not attracted the attention of anyone around her, so she hurried to her eldest brother's side.
When I got closer, I found that the secret compartment was actually filled with gold bars.
Shen Qingli counted them and found that there were eight small yellow croakers in total.
It’s sent!
With these little yellow croakers, I don’t have to worry about not having money to build a house after the family splits up.
Although gold is worth little now.
But it shouldn't be a problem to sell a few of them and buy a red brick house.
Shen Qingyu's eyes widened when he saw the gold bars in the secret compartment.
"Xiao Li, put it away quickly and don't let anyone see it." After Shen Qingyu said this, he walked to the side to block Shen Qingli and the secret compartment.
Shen Qingli quickly put the eight small yellow croakers into her shoulder bag.
In fact, as soon as the little yellow croaker entered the bag, he entered the ring space.
It won't be safe anywhere else.
The three siblings stayed in the recycling station until almost twelve o'clock before leaving.
In addition to textbooks and the "Self-study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry", Shen Qingxuan also bought several extracurricular books.
Shen Qingyang was holding a large pot worth eight silver coins, with a bunch of small things in it.
Apart from the eight small yellow croakers, Shen Qingli and Shen Qingyu got nothing else.
However, these 8 small yellow croakers are enough to make the whole thing.
"Third brother, why did you buy a pot?" Shen Qingli asked curiously.
"This pot is intact except for the cracks on the edge. It's really cruel to let it rust here."
Shen Qingyang pointed to a crack on the edge of the pot.
"After we separate, we can use this pot to build a stove and cook. I also found a teapot for drinking water. Although the mouth of the teapot is broken, it can still be used. There is also this copper kettle for boiling water. Apart from a few dents and no lid, everything else is good. There is also this bowl, spoon, and chopsticks..."
Shen Qingli watched Shen Qingyang happily introducing the things he had found, and suddenly felt a little acid reflux in her stomach.
She regretted it!
I regret selling all the TVs, refrigerators, bicycles, pots and pans that 98K had looted from my adoptive parents' home on the black market.
If you don’t sell it, you can use it directly when the family splits up.
Those things, even the pots and pans, were at least clean.
Because my adoptive mother is a mysophobe, everything in the house is almost spotless.
As for these things that Third Brother found, God knows what the previous owners used them for!
Take the copper kettle for boiling water for example!
The suspicious color on it made Shen Qingli wonder whether it had ever been used as a urinal.
And the teapot has a suspicious dark red color on the spout.
Shen Qingli had reason to suspect it was blood.
Could it be that the owner of the teapot was sick and liked to drink directly from the teapot, and accidentally rubbed the blood onto the spout of the teapot?
Thinking of these possibilities, Shen Qingli could no longer bear it.
She pulled Shen Qingyang over and secretly showed him the small yellow croaker that she and her elder brother had obtained.
Then I appealed to his emotions and reasoned with him, and finally after more than ten minutes, I got him to give up those things.
Apart from a few small toys, even the pot was abandoned.
But it can be seen that Shen Qingyang is very reluctant to leave.
You have to be willing to give it up even if you are reluctant!
This is something that needs to be eaten, so you really can't be careless!
Think about the COVID-19 you experienced in your previous life.
I wouldn’t even dare touch something that others don’t want, let alone take it home.
When pressing the elevator button, you have to spray it with 75-degree alcohol to disinfect it.
But what about people of this era?
Shen Qingli turned her head and looked at the person rummaging through the waste pile.
well!
People of this era are used to being thrifty.
I don't care about using other people's second-hand goods.
Even chopsticks!
But Shen Qingli is a modern person who has experienced queuing up for nucleic acid testing before dawn every day.
She had to dig out these things from the scrap yard, and she didn't even know how many hands they were from...
Sorry! I just can't convince myself.
I can't use it myself, and I can't let my parents and brother use it.
As the saying goes, disease comes from the mouth!
It is because most people of this era do not care about their health that parasites such as roundworms are rampant.
Therefore, Shen Qingli decided to keep a close eye on her parents and brothers from now on!
The four siblings took Shen Qingxuan's books and a few small items that Shen Qingyang had found to the gatekeeper.
The old man flipped through the books and saw that they were indeed textbooks. He smiled and said, "These books are priced the same as newspapers, one cent per pound."
After saying that, the old man took out a large pallet scale. There was no pallet on the pallet scale, only a big hook.
The old man hooked the book tied with ropes with a hook, lifted it up with great effort and weighed it.
"These books weigh fifty-three pounds and two ounces! That's fifty-three cents and two cents. I'll take fifty-three cents from you."
After weighing, the old man put down the bundle of books, took a deep breath, and then looked at the things Shen Qingyang had bought.
"I'll charge you ten cents for these!"
After Shen Qingyu paid the money, the four brothers and sisters split up into two groups.
Shen Qingli and Shen Qingyu returned to the hospital.
