Chapter 48 One Job, Two Sales
She counted them; there were 12 boxes in total. The dowry left to her by her mother was quite substantial.
She opened the first box, which was full of all kinds of jewelry, including more than a dozen gold bracelets that felt heavy in her hands. In addition, there were various pearl headdresses and jade earrings. Every piece of jewelry was exquisite and precious, almost dazzling.
The second box also contained jewelry, including a custom-made gold phoenix crown woven with countless pearls. It was very beautiful, and the entire crown was handmade, showing how much the original owner's mother loved her.
Unfortunately, although the original owner got married, she didn't like Huo Chenzhou, so she didn't bring a dowry. Later, the Shen family tricked her out of her dowry.
Shen Zhixia sighed and opened the third box. When she opened the third box, she was almost blinded by the light. It was full of gold bars, which were very dazzling.
She held a gold bar in her hand, and even though she knew it was real, she couldn't resist taking a bite.
gold!
No one can resist the allure of gold.
Shen Zhixia's heart raced. She then opened several more boxes, and found that five of them were filled with gold bars.
She was now grateful that she had discovered a space; otherwise, these things would probably have been forcibly taken away as soon as she took them out.
The next box contained some antiques. Shen Zhixia didn't know anything about antiques, but the wine cups, teapots, and other items inside looked very old and ancient. Some of them were also quite beautiful. However, these things were later labeled as products of capitalism and were no longer usable.
Even if you want to sell antiques, you can only do so through the black market.
When she opened the remaining boxes, one box contained some top-quality Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, highly nourishing medicinal herbs, while the others contained fine silks and clothes. The clothes were very luxurious, made of excellent materials, and even had gold thread on them. They were luxurious, but she estimated that they would only be for display in the future and could not be worn at all.
The original owner's mother was incredibly wealthy.
As far as she knew, these valuables were only a small part of the original owner's mother's wealth. This small part, converted into money today, would be worth at least several hundred thousand. You know, even now, there are very few people with ten thousand yuan. Her current net worth is already top-tier.
Shen Zhixia looked at the valuables and silently said "go in," and all the boxes went into the space effortlessly.
After doing all that, she filled in all the pits in the yard to make sure no one could tell anything was wrong.
There were many stones outside the yard, and she thought they would be useful, so she filled a lot of them with stones.
After doing all this, Shen Zhixia returned to the Shen family.
When she returned this time, there was no one from the Shen family, and she guessed that no one cared about her. Anyway, she was all alone in Shanghai and there was nothing she could do.
When they first came back, Zhang Mei and Shen Jinxiu put on an act, but now they're too lazy to even pretend anymore.
As soon as she entered her room, she sensed something was wrong.
The little floral bundle she carried before she left was clearly open, but now it's tied up again.
The room was much tidier than before, clearly indicating that it had been disturbed.
Oh……
She knew these people weren't honest.
However, there was nothing important in her bag; she had stored all the important things in her spatial storage.
When she came out, she saw the look in Zhang Mei's eyes and knew they wanted to steal something.
Shen Zhixia sneered and then walked to the basement on the first basement level.
She learned from the book that the Shen family had built a basement, which was used entirely to store their property. She went to the door and entered the password.
The door opened immediately.
Shen Zhixia walked in and was greeted by dozens of large boxes. The boxes looked old, but they were all iron boxes, very sturdy, and locked.
She fiddled with the lock, but found it wouldn't open at all.
Just then, she stared at a box, trying to transfer the contents of the box into her spatial dimension. Instantly, a layer of gold ingots appeared in her spatial dimension.
Shen Zhixia followed the same method, moving the stones from the space into the box.
It was a success.
Her eyes lit up. This was a function she had just discovered; it allowed her to move things inside the box freely, or move anything into the box.
All the boxes were locked. She knew the Shen family had already taken stock of the belongings and would definitely not open them again. Even if they were transferring assets, they would only move the boxes.
She put stones in the box, and no one knew she had moved the items.
However, Shen Zhixia knew that these assets were only a part of it.
The Shen family also possesses other assets.
She won't leave them a single penny this time.
The basement was filled with chests, and inside were even more treasures: chests upon chests of precious medicinal herbs, various antique paintings and calligraphy, jade and jewelry, gold and silver jewelry...
She kept going, her eyes reddening.
Anyway, these things originally belonged to the original owner's mother. The scumbag father only married her because he was after her money. After marrying his stepmother, the whole family openly seized the property.
If it weren't for the dowry left by her mother, they would have driven her away long ago.
There were many boxes in the basement, a total of fifty or sixty boxes, all packed full and piled up in her space.
After packing everything up, Shen Zhixia glanced at it and found that most of the items were gold, including gold bricks, gold coins, gold bars, gold jewelry, several boxes of silver dollars, silver bowls, silver chopsticks, and even fine blankets and quilts, men's and women's watches, clothes, shoes, and a bankbook with 20,000 yuan in it.
Afraid of being discovered, she closed the door and left after doing all this.
The basement was quiet and peaceful, as if no one had ever discovered it.
Shen Zhixia knew that no one would find out.
The Shen family built this basement without anyone knowing. The location was very secretive, and it was equipped with a complex combination lock, so they believed that no one would know.
Therefore, Shen Zhixia's trip was very successful.
When she came out, she didn't see anyone in the house. She guessed that those people were discussing how to take away the property she had.
Shen Zhixia sneered. This time, she went to the textile factory to find Aunt Wang. She said that many people wanted to buy her job, and it wasn't just talk. Aunt Wang had mentioned it before because she thought the original owner was going to follow the army, but the original owner was planning to get a divorce, so she refused.
Aunt Wang also works at the textile factory. She has a kind and honest personality and usually takes good care of Shen Zhixia, a younger person.
When Shen Zhixia arrived at the textile factory and said she was looking for Aunt Wang, Aunt Wang came out quickly.
"Xiao Shen, are you here to work?" Aunt Wang said kindly.
Shen Zhixia said, "Auntie, I won't waste any more words. Do you want to buy my job?"
