Monster, come to my bowl
Chapter 47 As strong as an ox
After settling down his residence, Cai Ji became a hands-off boss.
There are professionals in charge of running a restaurant, so he doesn't need to worry about it.
His attention was focused on collecting antiques.
This time I won’t be collecting junk, I’m mainly collecting antiques!
After the last lesson, Cai Ji was basically sure that things like hoes and rakes were useless, so if he was going to collect anything, he would only collect those that were very old or made of precious materials.
Items made of precious materials are expensive and not many people buy them.
Mainly collecting antiques.
Being a practical man, Cai Ji asked someone to get a donkey cart the next day, and prepared to take Honghong and Lanlan out to collect the treasures.
That's right!
Two young maids also followed him into the city.
Moreover, Cai Ji did not bring them here by force.
Instead, they took the initiative to bring it up when the lady asked for their opinions.
The two maids spent some time with Cai Ji and found that although he often did some indescribable perverted actions, he did not seem to be a bad person, at least he had never done anything to bully them.
Not only did he not bully us, he was also generous with the money.
With the idea of making as much money as possible, the two of them followed him into the city.
"Manager Cai, are you going to collect junk again? You can just leave this kind of thing to the servants!"
"That's right! Sister Lanlan and I can take care of your daily meals and drinks, but we don't have much strength to help you move those things."
When they set off, the two maids were a little reluctant and protested to Cai Ji together.
Cai Ji knew that they said they were not professional because they were afraid of being embarrassed, so he smiled and comforted them, "Don't worry, we won't accept those hoes and rakes this time, only antiques and other small things! Besides, the first time is the second time, the second time is the third time. You should come out with me more often and see the outside world, so that you can become useful people in the future."
"What use can we be?"
"That's right, our only destiny is to serve others."
The two maids expressed doubts.
"You can't say that!" Cai Ji shook his head and said with a smile as he drove the donkey cart away, "One must always have some ambitions. One never knows when an opportunity will come. It would be a pity if one is not prepared and lets the opportunity slip away."
"..."
Honghong and Lanlan didn't take his words seriously at all. They looked at each other and shook their heads.
But what they never expected was that the opportunity Cai Ji mentioned would soon fall upon them!
……
The three men drove a donkey cart through the streets.
Cai Ji was responsible for shouting and bargaining, while Honghong and Lanlan were responsible for packing things and guarding the donkey cart.
Because Qinghe City has a large population and is densely populated.
When the residents heard someone outside shouting that they were buying antiques, they all took out the old items that had been discarded from their homes and sold them. Every time the donkey cart stopped, it would be surrounded by people.
For ordinary people, old items at home are not only useless but also take up space. If there is a chance to exchange them for money, they certainly cannot miss it.
I’m afraid that if I miss this opportunity, I’ll miss that opportunity too!
As more people sold their products, Cai Ji had more choices and the prices dropped a lot.
In less than half a day, we received a large number of various antiques.
Seeing that the donkey cart was almost loaded, Cai Ji prepared to return home.
"Boss, do you want stone sculptures?"
At this moment, an old lady suddenly came up to ask.
"What stone sculpture?"
Cai Ji was stunned and asked casually.
Although stone sculptures are not suitable to be held in the hands, it cannot be ruled out that they can be used as spellcasting props. It is worth getting one back to try.
"It's just a turtle! It has been thrown in the corner of my backyard for a long time. The old people said that it was used by wealthy families to pad the base of pillars in the past. It must have a history of at least several hundred years." The old lady answered in one breath.
A stone turtle that is hundreds of years old?
Hmm~~
You can try.
"Take me to have a look." Cai Ji nodded, turned around and told the two maids: "You guys take care of the car, I'll be back soon!"
I followed the old lady to a small courtyard.
"That's it." The old lady said, pointing to a lump of something in a corner.
Cai Ji leaned closer to take a look and found that it was indeed a stone turtle, but it was severely weathered, with half of its head missing, and moss growing all around it.
But for him, it doesn’t matter if something is damaged, as long as it is old enough.
This stone sculpture looks like it has at least several hundred years of history and is worth collecting!
"How much?" Cai Ji asked.
"Just give it as you see fit." The old lady smiled kindly.
"Then it'll be one hundred coins!" Cai Ji said generously.
"Mr. Duo?" The old lady was shocked.
She thought that a piece of broken stone could be sold for ten cents at most, but she didn't expect it to be sold for a hundred cents!
Could it be that this stone has some meaning?
"One hundred coins, if you want to sell it, then sell it. If you don't want to sell it, I'll go back." Cai Ji knew that human greed is unsatisfactory, so he said it directly.
He has plenty of options now and is too lazy to waste time arguing.
"Sell, sell, sell! I'll move it for you!" Upon hearing this, the old lady hurriedly picked up the statue which weighed at least eighty or ninety kilograms and ran out the door.
She was afraid that Cai Ji would go back on his word and miss the opportunity to turn waste into money.
"Oh my god! He's really strong!" Cai Ji was a little amused and hurriedly followed.
They came to the donkey cart and handed over the money and the goods.
The old lady took the hundred copper coins and left happily.
"Oh my, this thing is heavy!"
"Honghong, you hold on to the side, and I'll support you from below."
"Good good!"
"No, no, I can't lift it!"
The two maids surrounded the stone sculpture and began to try to move it onto the donkey cart, but after struggling for a long time, they still failed to get it on the cart.
It's not that they are unwilling to work, but being a maid mainly involves serving people and does not require much physical work, so their strength is far less than that of the aunt.
Cai Ji wanted to step forward to help, but when he saw the pile of antiques on the donkey cart, he suddenly had an idea and thought of a way to solve the problem once and for all.
"Hey, try your luck first!"
He laughed inwardly, picked up the old teapot with a missing lid, pointed his right hand at Honghong's back, and said, "Strong as an ox!"
Click!
The teapot shattered!
Bang!
Honghong, who was bending over and trying hard, seemed to be possessed by something and threw the stone sculpture in her hand directly onto the donkey cart.
"???"
"???"
The two maids were confused.
They looked at each other, completely unaware of what was going on.
"No way? Honghong's luck is so incredible? I cast the Holy Word on myself three times, and I could only do a few hundred push-ups! She actually upgraded directly to be as strong as an ox?" Cai Ji was also shocked. He covered his hot nose and complained secretly.
"Honghong, are you so strong?" After a moment's pause, Lanlan expressed her curiosity.
"I don't know!" Honghong shook her head stupidly.
She couldn't understand how she had gained so much strength that she could throw the statue, which she couldn't move just now, directly onto the donkey cart.
"Why don't you try moving it again?" Lanlan suggested.
"Oh!" Honghong nodded, turned around and grabbed both sides of the stone sculpture.
Snapped!
It didn't take much effort for her to lift the stone sculpture from the car and place it on the ground.
Seeing this, the two maids looked at each other again and fell silent.
“No way? Is Honghong so lucky? She can succeed with just one try?” Upon seeing this, Cai Ji complained secretly to himself while picking up another antique.
Since I have decided to try the luck of the two maids, I have to treat them equally!
Honghong has gained immense power, and Lanlan cannot be let go.
"As nimble as a monkey!"
He quietly pointed at Lanlan and cast the Holy Word spell again.
Click!
I didn't even see what I was holding before it broke!
Although he didn't see Lan Lan jumping up and down, Cai Ji instantly realized that his spell was successful!
"Woo, this isn't fair..."
He covered his bleeding nose and burst into tears on the spot.
Ever since he discovered that he could cast the Holy Word, Cai Ji felt like he had transformed from a poor guy to a European king.
But he never expected that the clown was actually himself!
The two maids around him easily crushed him in luck!
I don’t want to be the protagonist anymore!
