Chapter 239 Sell the Fuel to Me
He Zhiran had already thought that if he said such words, he would be questioned by the other party.
Anyway, she is now in ancient times. Even if she tells the truth, modern experts will not be able to find her if they want to capture her for scientific research.
Now it all depends on the little collector's ability to accept, whether he can believe that he is a time traveler.
[I am currently in the Dashun Dynasty. I can go to southern Xinjiang to help you find the South Pearl you lost.]
When these words were spoken, the little collector was indeed stunned.
If he hadn't bought so many genuine antiques in He Zhiran's shop, he would even suspect that the other party was out of his mind to dare to say such things.
What about blowing?
He once wondered why there were so many antiques from the Dashun period for sale in this shop. For this reason, he sent people in the same industry to inquire, but no one knew that such an antique tycoon existed.
Could it be that the owner of this shop is really a time traveler?
You didn't lie to me?
He Zhiran laughed when asked.
[You have seen the goods in my shop. Let me ask you, those of you who deal in antiques, even if you are a big shot in the industry, it is impossible for you to have as many goods as I do, right?
And this price is also the lowest. I believe you made a lot of profit by buying antiques from me, right? 】
These words were completely convincing to the little collector. Although he still felt that time travel could not really exist, for some reason, he just believed it.
If you can really help me find that black South Pearl and offer a reasonable price, my losses will definitely be reduced.
Although he still had to spend money to buy here, he had visited this shop many times and the prices of antiques were much lower than the market price.
If that's the case, it would be much more cost-effective for him to buy it at a low price than to compensate his friend half the money.
By then, when the South Pearls are exhibited again and sold at a high price, at most his business will be unprofitable.
There is no other way at the moment. Either compensate my friend for his losses or take a gamble with the store owner.
[In that case, I'd like to ask for your help in finding that South Pearl.]
He Zhiran did not try to guess the little collector's thoughts. After all, she was not lying. As for whether he could find the South Pearl, it all depended on luck.
Moreover, she chose to confess her identity as a time traveler not just to make money from the South Pearl. She had so many antiques hanging in her shop for sale, and even without the South Pearl, she could still make a lot of money.
He Zhiran's main purpose is that she may need some modern things that cannot be purchased on Taobao in the future. If the little collector can help her, it can be said that the two of them can achieve mutual benefit.
I'm very far away from southern Xinjiang right now, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Even if I could go, it would probably take a month. Is there enough time?
Little Collector: [My friend gave me three months to raise funds. It would be best if I could get it within three months.]
He Zhiran: [Three months is enough time. Whether or not I can get the South Pearl, I will inform you here.]
Little Collector: [Okay, I'll wait for your good news.]
He Zhiran: [However, I may need your help. ]
Little Collector: [What do you need me to do?] He really couldn't understand how a person like him, living in the modern world, could help the other person.
He Zhiran: [It's a long journey to southern Xinjiang, so a helicopter or off-road vehicle would be the best.]
She once thought that the distance from the northwest to southern Xinjiang was almost the same as the distance from here to the capital. Even if she rode day and night at full speed, it would take more than 20 days to get there. It was indeed a waste to waste so much time on the road.
She thought she could buy a helicopter or off-road vehicle in Taobao Mall, but fuel became a big problem.
In her previous life, when she browsed various shopping websites, she indeed did not see any place selling gasoline and diesel.
This requirement is not a big problem for small collectors.
Although he is now facing difficulties in cash flow, the two helicopters and more than a dozen luxury cars he once bought are still there.
[I have both a helicopter and a car, but how can I give them to you?]
He Zhiran thought for a moment and replied: [In the past, when I bought items on Taobao, they were all shipped directly by the store. I could buy helicopters and off-road vehicles myself, but the only thing I lacked was fuel.
If possible, I hope you can open a shop on Taobao and sell fuel to me.
Getting some fuel makes it even easier for little collectors.
[That's no problem. I'll apply to open a shop right away. When you need me, please let me know. Starting today, I'll turn on notifications and ensure I can reply to your messages as soon as possible.]
He Zhiran: [Okay, it's settled. I'll contact you in a few days before I go to southern Xinjiang.]
With the fuel supplied by the little collector, He Zhiran no longer worried about wasting time on the way to southern Xinjiang, and her mood immediately became much happier.
The chat came to a temporary end and He Zhiran left the space.
At this moment, Mo Jiuye was in the room.
"Husband, are you waiting for me?"
Normally, Mo Jiuye would be busy outside at this time and would not return to his room unless there was something special.
Mo Jiuye pulled her to sit down with him.
"I've always thought that since Fifth Brother was able to avoid being controlled by that mysterious person's puppet Gu, perhaps the surviving Eldest and Second Brothers could also do the same."
He Zhiran had not had time to think about this carefully. Now that Mo Jiuye said it, she fell into deep thought.
After a long while, she finally expressed her guess.
“I remember it was mentioned in the Complete Collection of Gu Arts that puppet Gu are difficult to raise. Even if many people try to raise them, they may not be able to make them mature. Therefore, it is a great test of the talent and ability of the person who raises them.
The fifth brother was the first member of the Mo family to get into trouble. It was very likely that his puppet Gu had not been fully matured.
As for my eldest and second brothers, their accidents happened later. If they were truly alive, they would most likely be controlled by the Puppet Gu. Otherwise, how could there be so many cases of amnesia in this world?"
Mo Jiuye nodded continuously as he listened to his wife's analysis. Apart from what she said, he really couldn't think of any other reasonable explanation.
"No matter what, I hope that the eldest and second brothers are really alive."
He Zhiran could see that Mo Jiuye was very anxious to rescue his eldest and second brothers. His third brother had concealed his identity and went out to inquire. He only hoped that his third brother could bring some useful information when he came back.
Things can only be analyzed to this point. The future is still unknown, so we can only take it one step at a time.
He Zhiran sighed and said, "Let's go. I think Mother has already prepared the offerings to the Kitchen God. Let's go and take a look."
