Chapter 17 This is sudden wealth



"Burp..." After finishing all the food, Liu Shihua burped contentedly.

In his memory, this was the most full and satisfying meal he had ever had; it felt so wonderful!

It's just a bit too expensive. If it weren't so expensive, I'd love to eat like this every day.

However, when he saw his sister quietly watching him and smiling, he felt a little embarrassed.

Hiccups are something he can't control, isn't that a little embarrassing?

"Hey Lele, let's go after we finish eating," her sister said. They couldn't go back to their place on the other side; they needed to find another place to stay.

Liu Shile nodded, but smiled and said, "Okay, Second Brother, wait for me a moment, I'll be right back."

After saying that, she walked over to Chen Jing.

Chen Jing had nothing to do, so when she saw her coming over, she smiled and said, "Little sister, have you finished eating? Is there anything else you need?"

Liu Shile nodded. "I have something I want to ask Sister Jing quietly."

Seeing that she didn't hide anything and said she wanted to ask her something quietly, Chen Jing couldn't help but laugh.

This girl is interesting. Isn't she afraid that someone might overhear them and come to eavesdrop?

"Okay, come with me." Although the shop isn't very big, there's a large courtyard behind the kitchen.

Chen Jing led Liu Shile into the courtyard before saying, "Alright, little sister, what do you want to tell me?"

Don't worry, no one will eavesdrop here. You can speak freely.

Liu Shile had already listened carefully to the commotion here and knew that what she said was true, so she took out those bills.

Before she could even speak, Chen Jing's eyes widened.

"My God, little sister, you actually have such a large denomination of US dollars?"

How many US dollars do you have? Do you want to exchange them for new bills?

(At this time, the face value of the new banknotes was actually quite large. For the sake of easy reading, the author directly used the second face value, which is easier to calculate.)

The girl indeed recognized this thing and guessed her purpose.

That would be even better, saving her the trouble of explaining, so she nodded.

"Yes, I want to exchange it for the money we usually use. Do you know where and how I can do it?"

Actually, you can do this at a bank, but they probably have a stricter review process for this kind of business.

Liu Shile disliked trouble in the first place, so she didn't want to go.

Upon hearing this, Chen Jing subconsciously looked around and saw that no one was there.

He then whispered, "The current exchange rate between new banknotes and US dollars is 6:1."

That means you can exchange one US dollar for six new bills. If you want to exchange them…

She paused for a moment, then asked, "How many US dollars do you have?"

Liu Shile: I have over ten thousand US dollars, but I certainly won't tell you the truth.

She hadn't expected the US dollar to be so valuable, so she decided to exchange less and not be too ostentatious.

"I only have five hundred-dollar bills," Liu Shile said, taking five hundred-dollar bills directly from her bag.

Chen Jing's eyes widened in surprise; she hadn't expected this young girl to be so bold.

He quickly stuffed her things back into her bag and whispered, "Be careful, don't let anyone see."

After saying that, she casually withdrew her hand, thought for a moment, and then said, "Sister, I'll switch with you."

She seemed a little embarrassed as she said this.

He added, "But I don't have enough pocket money, so I have to ask my family for some to make up the difference."

If you're not in a hurry, you can come find me here again at this time tomorrow, okay?

Sure enough, this girl's family must be well-off; it was three thousand yuan, not three yuan!

When she said she was exchanging the items, she didn't seem reluctant at all, which suggests her family must be very wealthy.

That's true, these days who can just casually pull out several thousand dollars?

I don't know if the girl was stunned by the sight of the US dollars or what.

He actually revealed his true abilities in front of a young girl he had just met.

But this girl wants to change, and she has the ability to change, so what else could she possibly disagree with?

Anyway, it's all the same whoever it is, so replacing it with this girl will save us some trouble.

So, feigning surprise, she asked, "Sister Jing, are you really going to change?"

"Of course it's true! I've wanted to collect a few US dollars for a long time, but..."

She quickly covered her mouth as she said this, saying that this matter could not be discussed.

Liu Shile didn't press the matter further, and simply said happily, "That's wonderful! I'll definitely come to see you, sister, at this time tomorrow!"

Seeing the little girl almost jump for joy, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

So he quickly nodded and said, "Okay, I'll treat you to fish tomorrow."

Having settled the matter of exchanging the money, Liu Shile was in a very good mood.

He happily led his second brother away.

Seeing her sister beaming with joy, Liu Shihua wanted to ask her something, but then hesitated because there were too many people on the street.

After the two found a rental agency and settled in, he asked, "Lele, what good thing happened to you?"

Such a joyous occasion should not be enjoyed alone.

So she took out five hundred-dollar bills and waved them in front of her second brother.

He asked mysteriously, "Second brother, how much money do you think these banknotes can be exchanged for?"

My sister has been happy for so long, so I imagine she can get quite a lot in return.

These banknotes all have the number 100 on them, and there are five of them in total. Could they possibly be exchanged for 50 yuan?

But why else would my sister be so happy?

But would fifty yuan make my sister this happy?

He shook his head inwardly, then tentatively asked, "Can I exchange it for a hundred?"

He thought that even if he only got fifty dollars, let alone a hundred, he would be so happy he couldn't sleep.

Uh, my second brother's imagination doesn't seem to be very rich.

She smiled and shook her head, "Second brother, guess again, go ahead and guess as high as you want!"

Five hundred dollars, that's enough to exchange for three thousand dollars, okay?

Liu Shihua's eyes widened. A hundred is not enough?

He took a serious look at the colorful banknotes, but didn't think they were worth much.

"Can we exchange 100 for 100? If that's really the case, that would be wonderful!"

With this 500 yuan, Mom probably won't be in such a hurry to marry my eldest sister off to the countryside anymore, right?

Liu Shile, who originally wanted her second brother to guess again, saw the emotions in his eyes.

Considering his open and honest nature towards his family, I really wanted to give up the idea of ​​telling him the truth.

But considering that he might come into contact with these things in the future, he felt that it wasn't right to deceive him like this.

He simply asked, "Second Brother, what do you plan to do with the money we've earned?"

When the question was posed, Liu Shihua was somewhat taken aback.

According to him, it would naturally be to take it back and give it to his mother, since his mother was in charge of the family's finances.

But when he saw his sister's bright eyes looking at him earnestly, his heart skipped a beat.

Thinking of my mother's strict control over money.

He couldn't guarantee that his mother would still act the same way after he gave her the money.

Aside from the tuition fees that must be paid, do they not give them any pocket money at all?
