Chapter 14 Reselling Ancient Clothes
Chapter 14 Reselling Ancient Clothes
The Lu family members didn't know where the food came from. Although they were curious, the old man didn't say, so they didn't ask. After all, as long as they had something to eat, that was enough.
Lu Zhou and the others, however, kept their eyes fixed on the old father not far away. They noticed that Lu Qing would occasionally open his mouth, as if he were talking to someone.
Mrs. Song sighed, "It seems that Father's hysteria is indeed serious."
It kept talking to itself like that, it really looked like a ghost, it was truly terrifying.
Some of the passing officials saw it and shook their heads repeatedly, sighing: "Look, the former Grand Secretary of two dynasties has gone mad from the blow."
In the Lu family, besides Lu Xingyao, only Lu Xingyan knew that Lu Qing did not have hysteria. The Lu family ancestors had indeed appeared, and the food they had eaten these past two days was all a gift from their ancestors.
But without Lu Qing's approval, they dared not tell anyone else about it, lest they displease their ancestors.
So much so that when Lu Qing occasionally opened his mouth to talk to Gu Xingzhao, it looked to others like he was having a fit of hysteria.
When his ancestor asked the question, Lu Qing dared not be negligent. "Replying to my ancestor, I have eaten my fill. Thank you for the food."
Gu Xingzhao smiled and said, "There's no need to always say thank you."
“I noticed you all had bamboo baskets on your backs just now. Those cloth bags made from your outer garments are probably useless now. Why don’t you give them to me? It will bring you some good fortune.”
She considered asking directly, but that would damage her image as a virtuous and unassuming person. However, she wasn't a saint either; she had to support twenty-six people, and the supermarket wasn't very profitable. Living off her savings was definitely not an option.
A money-making opportunity is being offered to us right now; only a fool would turn it down.
Besides, if I can make money, I can better help the Lu family!
Upon hearing this, Lu Qing gave his ancestor a piece of clothing worn by a young child.
How can this work!
What are ancestors? Immortals! The ancestors who have been kind to the Lu family!
How could one give an ancestor a worn-out garment? Wouldn't that be an insult to the ancestors?
The ancestors wanted to protect the Lu family and didn't care about these things, but the Lu family absolutely could not use a piece of clothing to humiliate their ancestors.
Upon hearing Lu Qing's thoughts, Gu Xingzhao roared inwardly: No humiliation, not even a little bit.
"Actually, I only thought that since your youngest son is weak, this might bring him some good fortune. If you feel it's difficult, then so be it..."
"It's no trouble at all!" Lu Qing felt ashamed, but thinking of his youngest son, he still shamelessly bent down, "Then I'll have to trouble you, sir."
"Please wait a moment, sir, while I send someone to fetch the clothes."
"Go ahead." Gu Xingzhao felt a little guilty, thinking: Once I make some money, I'll buy more tonics for my youngest son, Lu Qing.
She didn't mean to take his clothes, but his clothes were simply "worthless yet valuable."
Lu Qing found Lu Xingyao and asked him to fetch Lu Xingyan's clothes.
Lu Xingyao was taken aback, somewhat embarrassed. Now that they had bamboo baskets, why would they need his third uncle's clothes?
"Grandfather, Third Uncle can't stand the wind..."
Lu Xingyao was worried about his third uncle: It's so cold at night, what if his third uncle gets frostbite?
Lu Qing said in a low voice with a straight face, "It's because our ancestors want the clothes so they can pray for your third uncle's well-being."
With just a few words, Lu Xingyao immediately understood, "Grandson will go right away!"
If deities bless mortals, then those mortals will surely enjoy longevity!
Let alone an outer garment, he could even strip Uncle Three of his pants!
Judging from Lu Xingyao's reaction and demeanor, Gu Xingzhao felt that he wasn't going to ask for the coat, but rather to strip someone of their underwear.
Lu Xingyao took two steps at a time, afraid of being late and making his ancestors wait too long, which would be bad if they got annoyed.
"Third Uncle, this coat of yours is still very useful. Grandfather sent me to fetch it."
Lu Yang, who was standing nearby, squeezed his large body through the gap between the two of them, creating a path just big enough for him to pass. "What great use is it?"
He couldn't help but feel that his eldest nephew had become as mysterious as the old man; could it be that another one had developed hysteria? Lu Xingyao said with a serious face, "Grandfather said that only Third Uncle can know."
Lu Yang: "..." Well, this is boring. I'll go find a wife.
Before Lu Xingyao could explain, Lu Xingyan had already taken off his outer garment and handed it to him.
Lu Xingyao: "Third Uncle, aren't you going to ask what it's for?"
He couldn't wait to let his third uncle know that a deity was going to save him!
But he didn't know what to say, and his second uncle was also coming over at that moment.
"Why ask?" Lu Xingyan wasn't that curious.
Lu Xingyao has been running around for his father these past two days, which must be some kind of instruction from the ancestors. If it is an instruction from the ancestors, it must be for the good of the Lu family.
Compared to the Lu family, this was just an insignificant piece of clothing.
Lu Xingyao's excitement was dampened by Lu Xingyan's words. He grabbed Lu Xingyan's coat, got up, and left without daring to delay any longer.
When the item was in front of him, Gu Xingzhao's eyes practically lit up with excitement. He asked in his mind, "System, I can take this thing that the Lu family offered me directly, right?"
She looked at the previous rules, which seemed to say that the items offered by the Lu family members could be exchanged for an equivalent amount of offering value. But the offering value of a piece of clothing was nowhere near as high as the value she could make by selling it herself.
She wanted the physical item.
[Host, you can do it.]
Gu Xingzhao: Do we need to pay taxes to bring ancient items back to the modern era?
Judging from the fabric of the dress, it must be quite expensive; otherwise, she wouldn't have considered buying it.
[Yes, according to the price in the ancient world, if you want to take this item away, you will need to pay a tax of 200 yuan.]
Gu Xingzhao considered himself a person with a fairly broad perspective. It was only two hundred yuan. Once he took the clothes back, he might be able to sell them for hundreds of thousands.
Lu Qing took the coat from his grandson, somewhat troubled. "Grandfather, how should I deliver this to you?"
Do we need to offer candles or incense on the altar?
Gu Xingzhao had never tried bringing back anything from an ancient world before. She was just about to ask the system if she could just take it directly when she saw the clothes in Lu Qing's hand disappear into thin air!
Lu Xingyao's eyes widened and his mouth gaped open: "???"
"!!!"
Gu Xingzhao felt as if he had suddenly held something in his hand. He looked down and his eyes widened in surprise. "Holy crap!"
"!!!!!!!!!" Holy crap! I can telekinesis?!
The clothes that were just in Lu Qing's hands were now in hers, and at the same time, she received a notification from the system that the payment had been successfully deducted.
She was wondering if walking over to get it herself would make her seem like a low-class ancestor.
Lu Qing clenched his fists, confirming that the object had indeed vanished in an instant. His heart pounded even faster. He suppressed his shock, trying not to appear ignorant like a fool.
As a former Grand Secretary of two dynasties, he still needed to maintain his image and save face.
Yet, the emotions surging within him were like a raging torrent: A living god... truly a living god!
His eyes welled up with tears. What had the Lu family done to deserve this...?
