Professor Qi slowly exhaled. Lin Yue was really suited to be a doctor, but it was wrong that such a thing happened in her family, causing her to have a knot in her heart.
"Okay, just a little bit will do. Thank you, Lin Yue!" Professor Qi's eyes were full of gratitude.
After talking for a while, Lin Yue left. Instead of going straight home, she headed to the market to see if anyone was selling antiques.
Although the chances are slim, what if someone like Professor Qin takes it out and tries their luck?
After parking her car in the market parking lot, Lin Yue had just opened the car door when she heard someone call out "Sister" from afar. The voice sounded somewhat familiar.
She looked toward the source of the sound and saw Li Mazi, who had switched places with her earlier, jogging down the road she had come from. When he reached her, he was bent over, panting heavily.
Lin Yue raised an eyebrow as she closed the car door. Had this car deliberately followed her here?
After catching his breath in front of Lin Yue for a while, Li Mazi straightened up.
"Sister, you left too fast." Li Mazi saw Lin Yue at the hospital. He went to the hospital to look for someone, not specifically to follow her.
After seeing the person, he called out to Lin Yue from behind, but the hospital was too noisy and Lin Yue was walking too fast, so she didn't hear him.
Later, Lin Yue drove away, and he ran after her. When he went to the hospital, he had someone take him there, and then the person left.
The only problem is that cars can't go too fast in the base, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to catch up.
"Why are you chasing me?" Lin Yue asked, puzzled.
She hadn't even gone to the market yet, and he already knew what she was going to exchange for?
"Sis, the way you're saying that, I must have some business to do with you. Sis, are you interested?" Li Mazi's face was beaming.
"I'm not interested, but you can tell me what kind of business it is, and I'll see if I'm interested."
"Sister, didn't you say last time that you wanted to trade antiques with Professor Qin? I was thinking that you might have this hobby. Professor Qin doesn't have many antiques, so he should have already traded them all. If you're still interested, we have a batch of antiques here, many of them from the Qin and Han dynasties, and some from the Shang dynasty. What do you think, want to trade?" Li Mazi asked with a smile.
The antiques they had were bought at a high price right after the apocalypse. They thought the abnormal weather wouldn't last long, but the apocalypse came right away, and they were stuck with them.
Lin Yue glanced at Li Mazi and remained silent for a long while, which made Li Mazi a little intimidated before he finally spoke.
What do you want to change to?
She came out today to exchange antiques. Since someone offered them to her, she naturally wanted them, but she also needed to consider whether the price Li Mazi offered was reasonable. This item wasn't something she absolutely had to have; she could wait.
"Sis, let's not go for anything else, just that fish from last time, do you still have it?"
The fish they exchanged last time made them a fortune, but there were just too few of them; the supply couldn't keep up with the demand. Many customers kept asking if they had any more and placed orders.
The boss had told him to find Lin Yue as soon as possible, but although they knew Lin Yue lived in the villa area, they had been waiting for many days without seeing her come out. They guessed that she might not be at the base, so they stopped waiting for her.
Lin Yue was unaware that Li Mazi had also gone to wait for her. The Canglang and Xuelang were usually quite quiet at home and wouldn't howl all the time. Only when they were taken into the space would they let out a loud howl, and then they would be quiet again afterward.
So, if she hadn't rang the doorbell and gone to open the door, she wouldn't have known she was home.
"Fish, we still have some, but not live fish, only fresh frozen ones."
In this kind of weather, catching live fish once is her skill, but catching live fish every time is abnormal. However, frozen fish are worth a try.
Li Mazi was a little disappointed, but he quickly cheered up again.
Frozen is fine too, it's better than having nothing at all. Wild boar meat is tough and dry, and rich people don't like to eat it.
"Sis, frozen is fine too, want to change?" Lin Yue is his real sister now, and he can only make money by relying on her.
"Tell me how you want to change it?" Lin Yue neither said she would change it nor that she wouldn't.
Li Mazi was getting numb. In the past, when doing business with others, he would always make sure they had something, and he would insist on exchanging it no matter what. If he couldn't get it, he would get angry at them and ask for a higher price to reserve it for the next time.
Why is it that when it comes to Lin Yue, her attitude is like she needs this thing, but she's also indifferent to whether she wants it or not, leaving him completely unsure?
"If they are all the same size fish as the ones my sister got last time, one fish can be exchanged for three antiques."
"I'll trade with Professor Qin, one antique for one pound of good rice." Lin Yue smiled at Li Mazi, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.
Here, fish are more valuable than rice. The smallest fish she traded away weighed five pounds each, and she traded them for three antiques. Does she seem like someone who is so desperate for antiques?
"Sister, you can't calculate the price like that. Let me tell you, antiques are becoming increasingly rare. Many people's antiques have been buried underground. These things are becoming increasingly scarce, so their prices fluctuate from time to time. Don't you think so?"
If Lin Yue likes it, it's a rare item, so it's normal for it to be a bit expensive.
Unfortunately, Lin Yue didn't really like it.
"Can we eat antiques now?" Lin Yue asked leisurely.
Li Mazi didn't know why Lin Yue asked that, so he honestly answered, "No."
Are there still experts collecting antiques? Are there still archaeological experts in the country collecting antiques?
"No……"
Pshaw! What the hell was he talking about? Why did I just agree with him?
"Look, you yourself said it's worthless, so why would I spend something valuable to exchange for something worthless? I'm just curious. I didn't have the money to buy it before, but now that I have the means, I just want to take a look. It's not that I absolutely have to have it. I'm leaving now; I still need to find something."
Anyway, it's impossible for her to give more; there's absolutely no way she'll give more.
Li Mazi was truly speechless this time, utterly dumbfounded.
Even if I had nothing to say, I still had to say something, so I quickly caught up with her and said as we walked, "Sis, how much do you want to exchange it for?"
Anyway, they're all just junk, some of them not even scrap metal. The boss said that as long as they can be sold, it's fine.
“Regardless of size, one fish will be exchanged for ten antiques,” Lin Yue said firmly.
"No, sis, this price negotiation is going to leave me with nothing!" This price is just too outrageous.
"Just tell me if you want to change it or not?" Lin Yue asked, tilting her head as she continued walking.
According to supermarket prices, good rice costs 15 points per pound, and meat prices vary, with the cheapest zombie meat costing 40 points per pound. Each fish weighs at least five pounds, and one pound of fish can be exchanged for two antiques. Compared to Professor Qin's batch, this price is a huge profit for them.
Don't even mention the possibility of not breaking even; if it were truly impossible, Li Mazi wouldn't be staying with her.
"Sister, how about you reduce the price a bit more and give me some errand fee?" Li Mazi was already willing to put aside his pride, even though people in their line of work didn't really have much pride.
"Sure! I'll give you two extra as a delivery fee." Lin Yue readily agreed.
She's not a stingy person; she'd be happy to pay a small fee for running the errand.
Li Mazi was stunned, unsure whether to call Lin Yue generous or stingy.
