After time travel, share a space with your modern family.
Chapter 65 The deal is concluded
When Qiao Tinghao specifically reminded him that the phone wasn't included in the acquisition price, Ding Bocong hurriedly said, "Oh, I know, I know, it's just what I wanted..."
Ding Bocong wanted to say that he could buy something called a "cell phone" at a high price. Besides being able to freeze a moment, it could also record events that happened over a period of time. Using it at important moments would be of great significance, and that would be the most valuable item among these things.
But before he could finish speaking, Ruan Mumu interrupted him.
"Mr. Ding, I will have even better things in the future. I don't plan to sell this phone at the moment, so please understand," Ruan Mumu said with a smile.
She knew that selling the phone to the Ding family now might cause unnecessary trouble and attention. Besides, a phone with solar charging capabilities was practically priceless here, and the money from selling other items today was enough to start her business. So she decided to keep the phone for the time being.
After a brief period of disappointment at the apparent failure to acquire the mobile phone business, the Ding father and son quickly cheered up again.
After all, I've already acquired quite a few other precious treasures today. Although I didn't get that magical "phone," I'm still very satisfied overall.
Ding Bocong chuckled and patted his son on the shoulder: "You little rascal, I didn't expect you to be so reliable today. If you hadn't come, Miss Ruan might have sold it somewhere else, and we wouldn't have gotten such a unique item."
Ding Xuyang chuckled: "Dad, I was just lucky. But then again, it's really thanks to my timely appearance that I was able to get it, otherwise someone else might have taken it from me."
Ding Bocong nodded, his eyes full of praise: "Yes, you did a great job this time. If you have the chance in the future, you should come out with your father more often and broaden your horizons."
Ding Xuyang gave him a smug look that said "Of course," feeling very proud. After all, his father had always had high expectations for him, and receiving praise was the greatest affirmation for him.
Ding Bocong was secretly pleased. Although his son was sometimes mischievous, he was quite reliable in crucial moments. It seemed he could take him out to broaden his horizons more often; perhaps he could even cultivate a capable successor.
Looking at these rare treasures, Ding Bocong secretly calculated their value. If he could sell these things through his connections to people who liked collecting unusual items, it would be a considerable fortune! Thinking of this, Ding Bocong couldn't help but smile.
“Miss Ruan, this ‘cell phone’ of yours has really whetted my appetite! Hahaha…” Ding Bocong laughed loudly.
“Boss Ding, there are good things everywhere in this world. You don’t need to keep focusing on this one in my hand. This phone of mine has a special purpose. I’ll come back to you when I find some treasures in the future,” Ruan Mumu said with a laugh.
“You little girl, you and your brother are really brave, carrying so many treasures, aren’t you afraid of being robbed on the street?” Ding Bocong was really curious, where did such a small child get so many treasures? This curiosity made him ask again: “These things of yours are very novel, I’m curious about their origins.”
Ruan Mumu's heart skipped a beat as she pondered how to respond. She could easily fool Ding Xuyang before, but this guy wouldn't be so easily fooled. "Boss Ding, the origin of my items is extraordinary, I won't go into details, but I guarantee their legitimate source. If you're not comfortable with it, you can refuse to buy them."
Ruan Mumu's move of retreating in order to advance made Ding Bocong instantly anxious.
"No, Miss Ruan, I won't ask." Ding Bocong realized that these things were special, and missing the opportunity to acquire them would be a greater loss than gain.
The two parties signed a contract for this transaction. It was the idea of the Ding family father and son to sign the contract, because they were afraid that Ruan Mumu and the others would go back on their word.
The contract stipulates that neither party may request a return or refund for any reason; otherwise, they will be liable for breach of contract. This also serves as a safeguard for Ruan Mumu, preventing the Ding family from causing trouble later.
"Miss Ruan, this is twenty-five thousand taels of silver, all in this box. Please count it in person." Following his master's instructions, Manager Zhang prepared the silver notes and brought them upstairs. He opened the box, inside which was a thick stack of silver notes neatly arranged.
"Manager Zhang, thank you so much," Ruan Mumu said sincerely. If Manager Zhang hadn't been so generous in accepting the glass, Ruan Mumu wouldn't have come back to them again and again to buy these rare items.
"No need to thank me, Miss Ruan. We're just mutually benefiting. Is there anything else you can help me with?" Manager Zhang asked politely.
"That's all for now, thank you, Manager Zhang," Ruan Mumu replied with a smile. She took the box, carefully checked the banknotes, and after confirming that everything was correct, nodded to Manager Zhang to indicate that everything was fine.
"Miss Ruan, this is a small token of our master's appreciation for you. We hope you will accept it." Manager Zhang handed over another brocade box and opened it to show it off.
Ruan Mumu took a look and saw that it was a red jade pendant. It looked so warm and smooth. She touched it and felt a warm sensation. She quickly asked, "Is this warm jade?"
Shopkeeper Zhang smiled and nodded, saying, "Our boss said that since Miss Ruan is so generous, this is just a small token of our appreciation. Please accept it. Also, our boss and young master have to leave now due to urgent business, but they left a message saying that if Miss Ruan has any interesting or unusual items in the future, please feel free to send them over, and we will definitely give you a reasonable price."
Ruan Mumu accepted the jade pendant without ceremony and said, "Then please thank your boss Ding for me. I will definitely supply you with good things in the future."
Shopkeeper Zhang smiled broadly and said, "Then thank you very much, Miss Ruan."
Since the deal was done, Ruan Mumu and her brother had to rush home, so they said goodbye.
"Alright, if you find anything good in the future, remember to come find me again!" Manager Zhang said with a smile.
"Certainly, certainly, Manager Zhang, we'll be leaving now." Ruan Mumu and her brother got up to say goodbye, taking the box with them as they prepared to leave Jucai Zhai.
"Girl, what if those appliances run out of power?" Qiao Tinghao suddenly asked.
"Oh dear! I completely forgot about something so important. Go upstairs and tell Manager Zhang that if any of those electrical appliances don't work, put them in the sun to dry; the solar panels will recharge automatically." Ruan Mumu was a little annoyed that she had almost forgotten such an important thing, and now people were saying she was a swindler...
"Okay, wait here for me a moment, I'll go tell Manager Zhang right away." After saying that, Qiao Tinghao went back upstairs to look for someone.
