The deliveryman's name was Lü Damin.
He checked the money several times to make sure it was correct, and then quickly said goodbye and left.
Gu Wei then closed the door and happily played with and studied his newly acquired treasures.
Of the 86 antiques, 30 are porcelain.
The last Yongzheng landscape brush pot sold for over 20 million.
In his eyes, each of these items was undoubtedly priceless.
The price of jadeite rough stones of all sizes is immeasurable.
Gu Wei felt that his decision to cooperate with Hou Yongxian was absolutely the right one.
If we let him collect it himself, it would be a waste of his energy, not to mention he doesn't have the good eye for it.
Gu Wei knew the principle of not putting all your eggs in one basket.
Although the storage room in the modern villa is relatively safe and secluded, he is not often at home. If it gets targeted and burglarized, the loss would be huge.
Therefore, he plans to build a storage room in his newly purchased house.
However, to be on the safe side, this matter is not intended to be handled by outsiders.
Gu Jianguo and the others also knew that Hou Yongxian had sent someone to deliver some old items.
But no one inquired too much about the specifics.
They were more concerned about when Gu Wei planned to go out again.
"Gu Wei, when are you planning to leave?"
Facing three pairs of eyes staring at him, Gu Wei smiled. "I'm too busy with things right now, so I don't plan to go out anytime soon. I think these old items are quite nice, so I plan to keep them for my collection. As for the goods in the shop, I've also had them transported from the south..."
The happiest person about this was none other than Gu Hongjie.
He was initially a little disappointed, thinking that by the time Gu Wei left and came back, the National Day holiday might have already passed several days.
Gu Hongjie immediately clapped his hands and said with a smile, "That's great! Now you can come see my National Day performance!"
Gu Wei knew that Gu Hongjie cared a lot about this performance and was practicing a lot of his free time.
Even if there are important matters, this should be the priority.
Moreover, he has control over his time.
"It's your first time performing on stage, of course I'll be there. And it won't just be me, you guys will be there too."

Gu Jianguo and Li Guizhi had originally shared this idea.
In the past, because of their incompetence as parents, their children suffered a lot of hardship and injustice.
They only learned about being bullied after Gu Wei appeared.
Therefore, he felt a lot of guilt towards Gu Hongjie and wanted to make it up to the child.
Li Guizhi said softly, "Okay, we'll go together then."
Gu Jianguo chuckled and said, "Yes, everyone will go. But with so many people coming to support you, you mustn't let them down."
Gu Hongjie grinned from ear to ear, puffing out his chest and promising, "I will definitely sing well and not let you down."
After the meal, Li Guizhi went back to the front of the shop to mind the business.
Gu Hongjie practiced singing while watching TV programs.
Gu Jianguo was tidying up the stove in the kitchen.
Gu Wei helped put the washed dishes back on the dish rack and secretly winked at Gu Jianguo.
Gu Jianguo understood immediately.
He then wiped his hands with a rag and went to the west room.
The two closed the door to talk.
"Grandpa, I want to find a secluded place in the new house to store my old things after the Zhuang family moves away."
“Sure,” Gu Jianguo immediately offered his suggestion. “I see they have a cellar that we can renovate. As long as it doesn’t flood in the summer, it should be fine.”
Gu Wei also went to the Zhuang family's house to see it in person, and naturally he also saw the cellar.
The winters in the forest area are exceptionally cold and often snow heavily, causing transportation disruptions.
People living in single-story houses usually dig a cellar to store vegetables such as cabbage, potatoes, and radishes for the winter.
These cellars can be either outdoors or indoors.
"Okay, let's expand the area a bit more..."
Gu Wei then shared some of his own ideas.
Gu Jianguo silently memorized them all.
As the two were talking, a commotion broke out at the door, as if a lot of people had arrived.
Gu Wei looked out the window and saw that it was Zhao Dajiang and his group.
He and Gu Jianguo quickly walked out one after the other.
When Zhao Dajiang and his group heard that Gu Wei had bought the house next door, they came down with a lot of people and some tools for building houses and painting walls.
Upon seeing Gu Wei appear, Zhao Dajiang couldn't help but say, "Gu Wei, this job can be done by our own family members. There's no need to spend money to hire outsiders. Once the others arrive, you can settle their wages, and we'll take care of the rest."
"Yes, Brother Gu, you're being too polite. How could we not say anything about something like this?"
Zhao Zhengyuan also felt that Gu Wei was being too polite. Gu Wei had helped his family so much, and now that there was finally something he could do to help, Gu Wei quietly asked someone else for help. Anyone would have some thoughts about that.
Jin Hongda and his group also came along, and they all expressed similar sentiments.
"Brother Gu, we finally have a chance to lend a hand, you can't refuse."
Gu Wei gestured for them to hold their breath, then smiled and said, "If you want to help, there will be plenty of work for you in the future."
The workers have already been hired, but they've only worked for half a day. They went home for lunch and haven't come back yet.
In fact, Gu Wei would rather spend money than owe favors.
"Let's not wait until later, let's do it now." Zhao Dajiang picked up a shovel from the side. "Gu Wei, you've given our family so much help. Not to mention anything else, just take those vegetables for example. If it weren't for you contacting customers and transporting them to other places, we wouldn't have been able to sell them for such a high price."
