69. Chapter 69 69 Money Tree



Shi Liu looked at the two unconscious people and felt excited. Now that the two people had lost consciousness after being robbed, it was obvious that their systems were about to be scrapped.

Su Sanlan noticed the way the two girls looked at her daughter, and she felt a surge of dissatisfaction. She felt sympathy for Qiao Hongbin. Qiao Zhiqing was unlucky enough to be pestered by two such female comrades. "I say, do you two want to change the wicker box? If not, leave immediately."

Liu Piaoxu said gently, "Auntie, I want to exchange for a rattan box. Here's the money."

Su Sanlan took the money and counted it. Not a penny was missing. His expression immediately brightened up. "The wicker boxes are all over there. Go and pick one."

"Thank you, auntie."

Putting aside other things, when it comes to dealing with people and things, Liu Piaoxu is miles ahead of Liu Tiantian. I don’t know how Liu Tiantian lived in her previous life. She is not even as good as other young people.

Liu Tiantian went in and out of the black market several times and naturally made a lot of money. She also wanted to buy something like a wicker box that was both beautiful and practical: "I want one too." After saying that, she walked forward and deliberately squeezed the willow catkins with her butt.

Shi Liu swore she saw disdain in Liu Piaoxu's eyes. Honestly, if it were her, she'd be disgusted too. Liu Tiantian was truly uncultured, and it was no wonder Qiao Hongbin looked down on her; the two of them simply weren't from the same world. As for Liu Piaoxu, she was a white lotus steeped in green tea. Her cultural accomplishments were there, and she had something in common with Qiao Hongbin.

After a while, only one of the five rattan boxes was left in the house. Shi Liu planned to keep this one. After all, the rattan box was indeed beautiful and practical, and she thought Tang Tang would like it too. Maybe she could sell one or two more of them later.

After eating and drinking, Qiao Hongbin and others felt embarrassed to disturb them any further, so they simply left a deposit for Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Due to the presence of Liu Piaoxu and the others, they could only hint to Shi Liu not to forget about it.

Shi Liu took the money swiftly and said, "Don't worry, I'll do the job."

Fourth Brother Shi, who still has no partner, said sourly, "Having a wealthy and powerful family is great. Qiao Zhiqing has so many suitors that you can't even count them on one hand."

Su Sanlan was unhappy when she heard this: "Why, do you think I didn't provide you with good conditions?"

"How could that be? I was just saying it casually."

Fourth Brother Shi was just complaining. If he were really entangled with women like Liu Piaoxu and Liu Tiantian, he would be annoyed to death.

However, Su Sanlan still took note of Shi Si Ge's desire for a wife, and planned to ask the matchmaker to find a young girl for him once the grain arrived.

"It's all thanks to you, Shiliu, that you found this way to make money for our family. All the educated youth came here to buy rattan boxes. Rich educated youth like Qiao Zhiqing even bought two at once." Su Sanlan's daughter was the smartest.

Shi Erge said with some regret: "Once all these educated youths buy them all, I guess the business will be over."

Although Brother Shi felt a little regretful, this kind of business was not long-lasting, and they were already very good to make this profit: "This money is enough for us to have a good New Year this year."

In fact, if the wicker box was sold on the black market, it would definitely be very profitable, but the wicker box was too big, and it would be too conspicuous to move back and forth. The people in the old Shi family did not have the courage to do so, so Shi Liu had to give up this way of making money.

Shi Liu planned to clear out half of the land in the small garden to grow raw materials and fruits for making incense. The baskets in the space were not enough: "Brother, please take some time to help me weave some baskets. I need them."

Brother Shi: "I'll help you in a moment."

The good thing about Shi Liu's four brothers is that they never ask what they want. After feeling the temperature outside, the sun was warm at noon, which was perfect for going up the mountain. "Mom, I'm going to the mountain for a while."

"Go, go, come back early for dinner."

"knew."

Shi Liu plunged into the back mountain, skipped all the sign-in places he passed by, and walked quickly towards the Prince's Tomb.

She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the air deep in the back mountain had become much fresher. In the past, there was always a smell of decay, but now it was a fresh scent of grass and trees.

Looking at the golden sign-in area before her, Shi Liu's mouth dropped open in shock. She remembered clearly that there had been no sign-in area in this place originally, but now one had suddenly appeared, and it was golden in color. It looked unusual in every way. Shi Liu suspected that the change in the sign-in area at the Prince's Tomb might be related to the changes in the Bai family's fortune-transfer formation.

[Discover a special sign-in location in the Tomb of the Prince. Do you need to spend 5 sign-in points to sign in?]

After having the sign-in system for such a long time, Shi Liu has discovered a pattern. Any sign-in location with the word "special" in it has a chance of signing in special items. This sign-in location that suddenly appeared is very special!

[Congratulations to the host for signing in successfully and getting a fortune tree*1]

Shi Liu's pupils trembled. Could this be the fortune tree she was thinking of? This was simply a deadly thing. She had no blood relationship with Prince Rui, so how could he take their fortune tree? "System, I didn't steal this, you can't suck my luck!"

Prince Rui didn't expect that after finally coming out of the tomb to take a breath, he would find his young disciple acting foolishly: "What are you thinking? Even if you are my recognized disciple, you are naturally qualified to take my lineage's fortune tree. Why don't you want to inherit my lineage's wealth?"

Emperor Feng Zheng had been making small moves for Yu Ze of their lineage, but unfortunately, he ended up making wedding dresses for others.

"But I'm not your blood—"

Prince Rui: “…” It’s so annoying that this disciple still doesn’t know how to call me Master. I can’t keep this disciple anymore.

Princess Rui covered her lips and smiled: "This child..."

Prince Rui was becoming increasingly exhausted. "I remember your adoptive father in your previous life was a master of metaphysics. Didn't you learn anything from him?"

"I have learned it. My paper-making skills are very good. Ruijun... Master Feng, hehe, how about living in the courtyard house I built for you?" Shi Liu was about to call him Prince Ruijun when he glared at her. She quickly changed her words.

Prince Rui said proudly, "It's okay, but it's not as comfortable as my underground palace."

Princess Rui looked at her husband with amusement, and her husband just said stubbornly: "The good child is also thanks to you. If it weren't for the courtyard house you gave us, we would still be living in a leaky underground palace." After so many years, the place where they lived had long been dilapidated.

Prince Rui was not embarrassed or angry at his wife's sabotage. Instead, he said sternly, "You have such good conditions, but you only learned paper-making. What a waste! Your calligraphy hasn't improved much recently. Have you slacked off? You must practice more for me later."

"As for the money tree, just keep it. You'll understand why later."

Shi Liu secretly curled her lips. This was what they called insufficient ability and authority. "Okay, Masters, is there anything else you need? I can already make divine incense now."

Prince Rui did not feel ashamed to ask for tribute from his apprentice: "First, some bamboo incense, and some good wine and delicious food..."

Pomegranate: "..." Why is she so careless and showing off? (End of this chapter)
