He put the bag in his hand on the table, grabbed a handful of peanuts in shell and started to eat them.
As for the peanut shells, they were naturally thrown away.
Qin Mahua followed him into the main room and poured him a glass of boiled water. Seeing the peanut shells on the ground, she said kindly, "Put the peanut shells in the spittoon. Drink the water when you're thirsty."
Chu Dashan stood up and said, "I'll clean up the peanut shells on the ground first, otherwise Xiao Xuan will come over and see and scold me."
At this time, Mu Qinlao came over and asked, "Are you still afraid of Xiaoxuan?"
"Of course I'm scared! I'm counting on her and Chen Ze to support me in the future. I can't do anything she doesn't like. My habit of littering is not good, I will definitely change it in the future."
As he spoke, Chu Dashan had already picked up the peanut shells and put them into the trash can.
After picking up the peanuts, he went to the kitchen to wash his hands before returning to the main room to continue peeling and eating peanuts.
Qin Mahua returned to the kitchen to continue working, while Mu Qinlao chatted with Chu Dashan.
"Chu Dashan, I find that you have changed a lot."
Chu Dashan threw a peanut into his mouth and asked, "What's changed?"
"You seem more polite than before."
"You have to be polite! Otherwise, Xiao Xuan won't let me into your house. If I don't enter your house, I won't be able to buy delicious and sumptuous meals."
"I guess you made the change just for a bite to eat." Mu Qinlao's eyes fell on the bag. "Is this the bag you brought?"
Chu Dashan patted his bag lightly and said, "That's right. But I can't show it to you. Only Xiaoxuan and Chenze can see it."
He was not worried at all that Mu Qinlao would open the package without his consent.
Because he knew that Mu Qinlao was a polite and well-educated person.
Sure enough, Mu Qinlao didn't move the bag. "Okay then! When Xiaoxuan is done, come over and you can show it to her."
As he spoke, Chu Xuan walked into the main hall. "Uncle Chu, you're here early. My eldest brother and his wife haven't come back yet. I wonder if my eldest brother can take you to the city. Please sit down and wait for a while!"
Chu Dashan patted his bag again and said, "I've brought back all the valuables. Can you help me take a look? But only you and Chen Ze can look at it."
Mu Qinlao went out tactfully.
Chu Xuan smiled and said, "Chen Ze is not at home, I'll watch it alone!"
Open the bag.
See what's inside.
Four gold bracelets, more than twenty pearls, three gold rings, and a small bundle.
He opened the small bundle and found a wooden box inside. He opened the box and found an irregular gray-white solid waxy substance inside. It had a unique sweet earthy aroma. Chu Xuan weighed it and it must be at least two or three pounds.
Chu Xuan recognized this thing, it was ambergris.
It is essentially a dried product of the sperm whale's intestinal secretion.
This thing is valuable!
More expensive than gold.
Chu Xuan pointed at the ambergris and asked, "Do you recognize this thing?"
Chu Dashan nodded proudly, "Of course I know it. This is ambergris. I saw someone pick it up when I was young. That person sold it for a lot of money and later moved away from the village. I heard that he bought a yard somewhere else."
"If this thing is sold abroad, the price will be higher."
"Then go call your mother and ask about the price. If it's suitable, send it to her."
"Are you not afraid of it getting lost?"
"Of course I'm afraid. Why don't you wait until your mother comes back to visit or when you and Chen Ze go abroad to see her, and then take her out and sell her! But you must help me make the call today, and I'll pay for it."
“I couldn’t call my mother from the village office, so I could only answer the phone.”
"I just inquired. The village office's phone can't make international calls, but the new phone at the village factory can. I'll go with you."
Chu Dashan quickly packed his things, tied up the bag again, and held it in his arms.
Chu Xuan agreed reluctantly, said hello to her parents-in-law, and walked towards the village factory with Chu Dashan.
I met some villagers on the way.
The villagers were very polite to Chu Xuan, but their attitude towards Chu Dashan was different.
"Chu Dashan, why are you holding a bag?"
Chu Dashan had already thought of an excuse, "Is it not okay for me to take some dry food from Xiaoxuan's house?"
"You still have the nerve to ask Xiao Xuan's family for dry food? Have you forgotten how you kicked them out in the first place?"
"Because I repented, our two families are now reconciled! If you don't believe me, ask Xiaoxuan."
After Chu Dashan finished speaking, he looked at Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan politely addressed the villagers, "That's right. Uncle Chu apologized to me before and obtained my forgiveness. Now our two families have reconciled. Chen Ze and I will provide for him in his old age. Of course, please keep him under your supervision. If he does anything bad, please let me know. I will criticize and educate him."
The villagers immediately expressed that they would monitor Chu Dashan at all times.
Chu Dashan was not angry at all, "Everyone is welcome to supervise."
He believed that he was so smart that he would never be discovered by the villagers when he did something bad.
When he arrived at the village-run factory, Chu Xuan borrowed the phone to contact Tian Xiaoyun.
Chu Dashan pricked up his ears to listen to the call.
Especially when I heard that the price of ambergris is at least 100 yuan and up to 200 yuan per gram depending on its quality, I was shocked.
The piece of ambergris in his hand weighed at least two kilograms. Could it be sold for tens of thousands at least? He was at a loss for words.
He doesn't know how to convert between kilograms and grams.
But he knew he could make a fortune.
However, he didn't say much and tried hard to suppress the excitement in his heart.
It wasn't until he followed Chu Xuan back to the main hall of the Mu family that he spoke again, "Xiao Xuan, help me calculate. If we assume two kilograms of ambergris, and 100 yuan per gram, how much can it be sold for?"
Chu Xuan remained calm. "Two catties is 1,000 grams, so it can sell for 100,000 yuan."
Chu Dashan placed his hand on his heart and sat down on the chair. "One hundred thousand? So much? My heart is beating a little too fast, I..."
Before he could finish his words, he fainted.
Chu Xuan hurriedly shouted, "Mom and Dad, come here quickly! Chu Dashan has fainted."
Qin Mahua and Mu Qinlao ran into the main room almost at the same time.
Qin Mahua immediately pinched Chu Dashan's philtrum.
Chu Dashan slowly woke up and weakly pointed to his heart.
Qin Mahua asked Mu Qinlao to take out the traditional Chinese medicine pills for treating heart disease that were kept at home and give them to Chu Dashan.
Soon, Mu Qinlao found the Chinese medicine pill and stuffed it into Chu Dashan's mouth.
It took a few minutes for Chu Dashan to recover.
"Thank you for saving me."
Qin Mahua was about to say you're welcome, but Chu Xuan took the lead.
"Uncle Chu, just now my parents-in-law took all the life-saving medicine in the house to save you. This medicine cost 200 yuan to buy! And you ate it all..."
Before Chu Xuan could finish, Chu Dashan took out some money from his pocket and said, "Here are two hundred yuan. Count them."
Neither Chu Xuan nor her parents-in-law had expected that asking Chu Dashan for money would be so easy.
In fact, the Chinese medicine pill that Chu Dashan just ate was not that expensive. He bought it for two yuan.
Chu Xuan insisted on asking for two hundred yuan, so Mu Qinlao and his wife had no choice but to cooperate.
Chu Dashan likes to spend money recklessly, so any money they can help him save is valuable, and it can be used to reduce the burden on his second son's family in the future.
Mu Qinlao and his wife did not refuse and took the money directly.
Chu Dashan thought of the 100,000 yuan again and became a little excited. Fortunately, he had just taken medicine and did not faint again. "I want to talk to Xiaoxuan alone. Can you please..."
Pointed outside.
Mu Qinlao and his wife nodded in agreement and walked out of the main room.
Chu Dashan confirmed that they were far away before continuing, "Xiao Xuan, do you have a scale at home?"
"Yes. What do you want to do?"
