The casual life of the flat space
Chapter 272 Fortunately, she is easier to appease than her mother
Mu Qingqiu didn't understand, and Bai Tieying didn't understand even more, so she only picked a box that she thought was good-looking. But when she put the one she picked on the other side, a line of words flashed across the space shocked her.
"It was detected that the space holder has received a main item: a rhinoceros leather lacquer makeup box with brocade pattern. Discount calculation in progress...
Due to its age, the specific value of this item cannot be provided. The estimated value is 200,000 taels, subject to the actual transaction value...
If the space holder invades the owner's property, he shall be ordered to return it. If the property is returned to the original owner within 90 days, there will be no penalty. The penalty before returning includes but is not limited to loss of transportation, amnesia, etc. If the space holder fails to return the property within the time limit, the space holder's equivalent property will be taken back in an irregular manner, and the space usage rights will be closed for 90 days, and three functions that have been owned will be randomly deleted.
The countdown begins: eighty-nine days and one hundred ke..."
After reading this series of "hints", Bai Tieying was dumbfounded. Even when Mu Qingqiu called her, she didn't want to answer.
Kuwazefa! What kind of unfair clause is this! Where can she find the original owner? Should she go to the streets and ask everyone? Can't the space be a little more humane? Or you can just give me a hint! Now, she doesn't have to be tortured by guilt. This deadline to find the owner is enough to make her suffer.
Seeing Bai Tieying's tearful expression, Mu Qingqiu racked his brains but couldn't figure out what was going on. Just now she was happily saying that she would sort and put away the herbs and give Uncle a big surprise later, but in the blink of an eye she was frozen in place. Now she finally saw her sigh heavily, and Mu Qingqiu hurriedly asked why.
"Brother Mu, if I become a fool, can you help me take care of my uncle and Bai Tiexiong?"
"Ah? How do you say this?"
"Hey! To put it simply, I can't take this makeup box. Not only can I not take it, but I have to return it to its original owner within ninety days. If I can't do that, I will become a fool...ah...I don't want to become a fool!"
This was the first time Mu Qingqiu saw Bai Tieying like this. His words, "I don't want to become a fool," made his heart feel like it was stopping again. However, his years of martial arts training helped him to quickly calm down, so he comforted Bai Tieying:
"Don't worry, Tieying. I'll go find General Zhao to help you find out about this matter. Don't worry, he knows a lot of people, and this little thing will be solved quickly!"
Bai Tieying didn't comment on "solve it quickly", but she definitely needed General Zhao's help, so she nodded in agreement. Seeing Bai Tieying's frustrated face, Mu Qingqiu suggested going out to find General Zhao right away.
Bai Tieying was competing with the space. She wanted to find the pattern of this space's "deception". Mu Qingqiu didn't know the fundamental reason why she did this. Bai Tieying insisted that he choose first, and he couldn't resist, so he could only take half of the ones that his mother might like.
In the remaining half, there was a jade-carved peony flower basket. Bai Tieying barely took a breath and reached out to it first...
"It was detected that the space owner received an unclaimed item: an imperial basket made for the eleven fairies Xiyan. The discount is being calculated..."
Bai Tieying was so nervous that she was sweating. She just wanted to know if she could be the first person who traveled through time and space to be chased for debt. After hearing the words "unowned property", Bai Tieying finally dared to breathe a sigh of relief.
The imperial item should have been left over from the previous dynasty, but County Magistrate Xiao or Madam Xiao used some unknown means to obtain it. It was not passed down from her father and ancestors, so it was not considered an owner's item. Then my idea of "avoiding things that look expensive" was not sure.
She definitely couldn't take the ones that were supposed to have owners, and she wasn't sure about the ones that didn't seem to have owners. Next, Bai Tieying carefully tested them one by one, and she was completely desperate, with a look of despair on her face.
If she transfers it to Mu Qingqiu, the space will still put the blame on her, which is not good;
Giving something to Mu Qingqiu first and then having him give it back to you is not acceptable;
She didn't want any of it and gave them all to Mu Qingqiu. However, because she was involved in the incident and had discussed the distribution, it still didn't work!
The things were all good, but she was not lucky enough to enjoy them. The final result was that she had to return twelve items with owners within ninety days, as well as two thousand taels of gold and seventeen thousand three hundred taels of silver. There was no pattern at all!!!
Gold and silver were easy to deal with, as she was familiar with the business of "throwing stones at water". But how could she know who the owner of other things was? The only good news was that she had found out through experimentation that if the owner lost or threw away something, and the owner had decided to give up and no longer wanted it, then when Bai Tieying took it back, it would be ownerless property.
Seeing her dejected look, Mu Qingqiu pointed at the things he had picked and said that he didn't want any of them. Bai Tieying was finally coaxed into laughing. Although Bai Tieying didn't want any either, she felt less depressed because of a warm-hearted friend...
Eh? That's not right! How could I fall into such a state of anxiety? These things are unexpected gains, why do I take it so seriously whether I get them or not? I have always been able to think positively, why did I suddenly become so out of control?
What are you doing? Is the punishment from the space coming? Bai Tieying rolled her eyes. Last time, I was so young that I had a bad memory. Then, I will have those days every day from now on. I am so proud of myself!!!
"That's not right, Tieying. If the return date for these things is all ninety days, then we can divide them up slowly. Wouldn't we not have to rush to find so many people?"
"Brother, dear brother! Don't mention this matter. I have already reaped the rewards. Didn't I just tell you that if you don't return it on time, you will become a fool? This is just a little interest. So if I want to do something stupid next time, just knock me out directly, don't show any mercy."
"What? There is such a thing?" Mu Qingqiu was stunned. He felt that Bai Tieying had it too hard. It was better to be a human being without so many concerns. Whoever gets it owns it.
Of course, he wouldn't just take other people's things, but he and his master had done things like discovering the secret rooms of corrupt officials and "robbing the rich to help the poor" many times, and there were no "consequences"!
Because he felt sorry for Bai Tieying, Mu Qingqiu unconsciously touched Bai Tieying's head with his hand, wanting to comfort her. But Bai Tieying was in a "depressed and stupid" state, and when he extended his hand, Bai Tieying's tears immediately fell. Mu Qingqiu was so panicked that he didn't know what to do, and finally he danced beside her.
"Pfft!"
Bai Tieying was amused by him and started laughing again. In an instant, the pear blossoms were wet with rain and the hibiscus was full of dew. Mu Qingqiu, who had seen all this, immediately forgot his dancing steps and fell to the ground with a whoosh.
“Hahahahahaha…you…ouch, you’re making my stomach hurt from laughing!”
When Mu Qingqiu saw that Bai Tieying had finally stopped crying, he thought to himself that it was a close call, fortunately she was easier to coax than his mother.
