Mr. Xie, please respect yourself! I am your grandfather's ancestor.

Chapter 10 I, the Xie family, succeeded in taking the top position

It’s not that Si Tong calculated that gold and silver were also circulated in this era, but she saw the jewelry on the two daughters-in-law of the Zhan family yesterday, so she guessed that gold and silver could also be exchanged for currency in this era, but she didn’t know how much it could be exchanged for.

But no matter how much she got in exchange, she couldn't spend her disciples' money.

Grandpa Zhan pushed the small box back and said seriously, "Grandpa, you are being too distant with us. It is our duty to show respect to you. Please keep these. We will cover all your expenses in the future. What's more, my two sons will come to give you gifts of thanks in a while. Karma still needs to be resolved."

Si Tong shook his head and did not touch the two boxes of gold and silver. "Karma is nothing to me. Although you are my disciples of Xuanyue Temple, I can't spend your money. Please help me exchange these gold and silver."

The four old men looked at each other and naturally understood what Si Tong meant.

Lu Heng rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Ancestor, the purity of gold and silver in ancient times was not high. In Jinghai City, every inch of land is worth a lot of money. You may not be able to buy a very good house for the time being."

As soon as he said this, the remaining three people immediately understood his intention and refused to mention the possibility of renting a house.

What a joke! No matter whose house this 'big Buddha' of our ancestor lives in, smoke will come out of his ancestral grave, okay?

Si Tong stared in astonishment. Are houses in the future so expensive?

Well, it seems that I will have to trouble these disciples for a while. I will make plans after I figure out how to make money.

"Well, I'll trouble you for the time being. There is one more thing. Since Xuanyue Temple has run out of luck, you should not call me ancestor in the future. Just like I said before, you can call me by my name or Miss Si or Miss Si. My age in the future should be about the same as your grandchildren, but let me call you Grandpa..."

"Boom, boom, boom."

The four old men froze, Si Tong cleared his throat awkwardly and continued, "Well, calling you that is definitely not okay. According to worldly etiquette, at your age, it seems a bit inappropriate for me to call you by your names, so I plan to call you... Lu, old?"

She paused and raised her eyes. When there was no movement outside, she continued to call: "Mr. Xie, Mr. Bai, Mr. Zhan, is this okay?"

Old Master Lu: “…” So, you are using me as an experiment, old man, you don’t love me!

As the eldest brother, Mr. Xie spoke first, "Okay, old Miss Si, if you have any other requests, just tell us. We old guys will cooperate with you."

Si Tong smiled with satisfaction, "I don't have any requirements, I just want to be a salted fish in this afterlife, hehe."

Several people were silent.

Because they all recalled the ancient records they had seen in the temple before, which said that the first generation master of Xuanyue Temple had a special physique. It would have been fine if he didn't go down the mountain, but something would definitely happen if he went down the mountain. If it were in modern times, it would be what young people call a "Conan physique", the kind that is prone to accidents.

I just don't know if the old ancestor's physical condition has changed at all in the past thousand years.

As for whether you will become a salted fish or not.

Will it be that in the end, dreams are perfect but reality is cruel?

Forget it. No matter what, the most important thing is that the ancestor himself is happy. They, as his disciples, just need to show their filial piety.

"Okay, as long as you're happy. My family happens to have a few pawnshops that recycle these gold and silver. I'll take them back and exchange them for modern currency for you later. However, most people don't carry cash now, so bank card transfers can only be done after your new identity is processed later. Sorry to bother you to wait."

Hearing what Mr. Bai said, Si Tong nodded, his eyebrows slightly raised, "Okay, thank you for your hard work!"

For some reason, the four old men suddenly felt that the ancestor had undergone a qualitative change from the inside out. She was completely different from yesterday. She looked more like her age now.

Si Tong: It would be strange if there were no changes. Don’t pretend to be free from worries. Do you understand?

After finishing the business, Si Tong glanced at Mr. Zhan, "Mr. Zhan? Do you have any food? I'm hungry!"

Several people couldn't help but laugh out loud.

While Si Tong was having the meal, they suggested that she stay in each family for a month.

The reason is simple: she should be treated equally.

Si Tong was speechless. It seemed like she was the emperor favoring his concubines and had to treat every family equally.

Unable to face the expectant eyes of four 70-year-old men, she had to agree.

However, after she agreed, she soon encountered a difficult problem, which was where Si Tong's first stop would be.

After a heated discussion, they finally decided the winner by drawing lots.

Sometimes it's really hard to explain the concept of 'shitty luck'.

There were four small paper balls. The three people who reacted quickly took the ones they liked first. Only Mr. Lu, who was slow, curled his lips and picked up the one he didn't want.

But that paper ball happened to be number one.

The old men were simply envious and jealous.

However, Si Tong was shoveling food into his mouth while watching the old men's childish games as if he had expected it.

It’s just a pity. I also want to see the eldest grandson of the Xie family who has great luck.

After dinner, Mr. Lu took Si Tong away triumphantly.

The people behind gritted their teeth and saw Si Tong off respectfully.

Because the old houses are not far away from each other, it only takes fifteen minutes to drive there.

Mr. Lu didn't bring his pretentious dragon-headed cane today. He got out of the car smoothly and opened the door for Si Tong.

Before Si Tong's feet even touched the ground, the servants standing in two rows on the red carpet shouted, "Welcome Miss Si to the Lu family. Welcome, welcome, warm welcome! Welcome, welcome, warm welcome!"

With a "bang", the car door that was originally open closed at lightning speed, and then drove away in a flash.

Mr. Lu, who was still smiling with satisfaction, suddenly froze his smile and looked in confusion at the direction the car drove away.

Why did the ancestor leave?

Half an hour later, Mr. Xie called and mocked him: "Hahahaha, you can't use your chance even if I give you one. I just want to know what on earth you did to make the ancestor go so easily? Hahaha!"

Finally, when Mr. Xie had laughed enough, he informed Mr. Lu in a smug tone, "By the way, the ancestor said that your family is too enthusiastic. She may not be able to adapt to it for the time being. She plans to change the order. Your Lu family will be the last one, and I, the Xie family, will succeed!"

(This article assumes that the purity of gold in ancient times was about 75%, which is our current 18K gold. The recycling price was set at 300 yuan per gram, and one hundred taels was about 200 million yuan. The purity of silver was not high either, set at 7 yuan per gram. Five hundred taels was 17.5 kilograms, or 217.5 yuan, which can be exchanged for a total of million yuan. The housing price setting is compared with the housing prices within the third ring road of the capital. Don't argue, just this setting, if you argue, you are right! Hehe, let's go!)
