Chapter 218 Not short of money
Liu Xiaolu supported her head with her hands and wandered around the space casually.
She also knew that her family was short of money, and if she wanted to live a good life, she could not do without money.
Liu Caixia: "Yes, it seems that we need to find a way to exchange more money. Alas, we didn't collect many glass products, otherwise that thing would be very valuable here.
Xiaolu, check if there are any other valuable things in the space. They have to be something that can be taken out. Plastic things are not acceptable. In order to save space and trouble, many of the prepared foods are directly packed in plastic bags, and some are also packed in plastic storage boxes.
The cups they used to drink water were made of different materials. They were either ordinary ceramic cups or some ordinary bowls and plates. "
Liu Xiaolu used her consciousness to search in the space.
In the end, nothing valuable was found.
"Mom, it seems there is nothing valuable left. Most of the things in the space are food and drinks. The quilts, duvets, and down jackets we use should not be valuable. There are also some cloths, but they are just ordinary cloths, four-piece bedding sets, and some gray, white, and black cotton cloths."
Liu Caixia nodded and said, "Yes, I thought I was trying to survive in the end times, so the things I bought were all practical. I don't have many gold and silver jewelry to begin with, so I had no choice but to sell this gemstone necklace and earrings as a set."
"You don't have to take out so much. Take out a pair of earrings first and ask if there's anyone who has the real deal."
"Yeah, it seems we haven't planned well yet. These things might be able to sell for more money in the capital city. If not, we can take out a set. The price should be higher.
Tomorrow I will ask the price at the pawnshop in the city. If the price is too low, I will buy a horse first. Then I can let Xiaoqu and Xiaochu go to the city farther away.
They have space and supernatural powers, so they should be able to return safely. But we have to put the purchase of houses and shops on hold for now, as the village needs money to build houses. The remaining money may not be enough to buy a blue-tiled house, so we can just buy adobe bricks in the village and build adobe houses."
"Dad, the money for building a house in the village can be given gradually. Besides, it is not certain that we can sell the blue bricks. We can sell as many as we can. If we can't buy them, we can only build a mud house.
We will expand the house later, and wait until it is stable, and then we will slowly build a quadrangle courtyard, and some of the houses we live in will be built with blue bricks and good solid wood. "
“I know, but all of these require money, and we also need to buy that mountain. We can’t do it without money. We can only give up these things for now.
Let's buy a set in the county tomorrow. The food and drinks in the space cannot be moved, and they can't be exchanged for much money. Oh, how could I forget it? I am old and my memory is not good. Have you forgotten it too?"
"What, Dad?"
"Don't I still have some gold bars?"
Liu Xiaolu looked at his grandfather and remembered that there was a small box, a black thing that looked a bit like a suitcase. He looked in the space and found that it was indeed in an inconspicuous corner, placed there in darkness. He really hadn't noticed it.
"Haha, Grandpa, let me get it out for you."
"Dad, I really forgot." Liu Caixia also patted her forehead.
"Okay, here are about five kilograms of gold bars, enough for us. There are fifty bars of fifty grams each. I bought them when the SAS virus came. At that time, prices were soaring, and the price of gold bars dropped sharply.
I bought some of them because the business was not that big at that time, and I kept them in a safe after buying them, and often forgot about their existence.
"Yes, Dad. I only took a look last time. Mom packed it in this briefcase, so I really don't know what's inside. Now, with these gold bars, we have the start-up capital for the future."
"Hahaha, this is really a pleasant surprise. I didn't think of it earlier, otherwise I could sell those jewelry for less and leave them for you to wear in the future. The jewelry at this time is not good-looking and expensive. The difference between selling and buying is earned by others, which is not cost-effective."
“It’s okay, Dad. I’m not used to carrying those things anyway. Look at what I usually wear besides the jade bracelet my mother gave me.
Xiaolu still has a long life ahead of her. She will have plenty of opportunities to buy what she likes in the future. Besides, there are still some left, right? These are all high-quality items.”
"Yes, Grandpa, the things are in my space. I never found them. Even if I saw this small box, I wouldn't know what's inside."
Liu Xiaolu's space is now only half left. She has basically eaten all the cooked food she had eaten along the way, and there is still some rice, flour, grain and oil that she had stockpiled. Two quilts have been dismantled and used to make cotton-padded clothes. The rest is some milk and drinks that have been consumed. There is still some left, just like the mineral water, there is not much left.
The weather was too hot before and they consumed a lot of water. Fortunately, water was available later, otherwise the remaining water would not be able to sustain consumption by so many people.
So much so that later on they didn't dare to use water for anything other than drinking.
Liu Caixia didn't dare to use water to clean herself after her period, but luckily she collected a lot of wet wipes and sanitary napkins, so she wasn't too sloppy.
"Tomorrow I will buy two gold bars in the county town. There are two relatively large pawnshops here. I have inquired about them before. One tael of gold can be exchanged for ten taels of silver. One tael of silver ingot weighs about twelve grams, and ten taels weigh one hundred and twenty grams. A gold bar weighs fifty grams, which is equivalent to sixty taels of silver. At least ten gold bars must be exchanged. Fifteen will make nine hundred taels, plus the remaining ones, there will be one thousand taels.
We will act separately tomorrow. I will go to the government office to get the land deed stamped and then buy the hill. Tomorrow afternoon, people from the government office will go together to erect the boundary marker.
You can buy a house and a shop here, and then go to Yazi to buy a horse carriage and an ox cart.
Ask about the blue bricks at the government office. I will bring more silver and make more arrangements with the government office. It will be more convenient for us to do things in the county town in the future."
"Okay, Dad. Tomorrow you take Xiao Qu to the government office, and I'll take the rest of the people. After we're done, wait at the food store over there at the city gate. There's a noodle store on the right hand side after we enter the city. You can have something to eat there at noon."
"Okay, it's settled. I'll pack eight gold bars, and you can take seven when the time comes."
"Okay dad, you take it back and let Xiao Qu put it away."
"Okay, got it. Go to bed early."
Father Liu wrapped the gold bars in a bag, stood up and prepared to leave. Liu Caixia hurriedly asked Liu Xiaolu to pack up the other things and put them into the space.
Tian Zhaodi came into the house only after Liu's father left. The three of them simply washed up and went to bed.
