Chapter 36 Secondhand Market
Xiao Qiang paused in his steps toward the warehouse, looking in the direction Shu Ran was gazing: "These haven't been sorted and sorted yet, so they're not for sale for now. You can walk this way; the warehouse is over there, and everything inside has been cleaned."
"it is good."
Shu Ran followed Xiao Qiang's footsteps and walked towards the warehouse on the left. With a sweep of her mental energy, she put the wooden box into her spatial storage.
He also checked the area covered by his mental energy to see if there were any hidden treasures, and collected them all.
The furniture inside was indeed much cleaner. After looking around, Shu Ran only found one mahogany carved cabinet with something hidden inside, and it was extremely well concealed.
She hadn't forgotten her goal. Besides the rosewood carved cabinet, Shu Ran picked out two identical camphor wood chests and a three-piece huanghuali cabinet before stopping.
She also needed to check out the other two warehouses, so Shu Ran didn't pick them all out at once.
"I'm still missing a table, chairs, and a dressing table. Could you please take me to see them?"
Xiao Qiang noted down what Shu Ran had picked out, glanced at her, and praised, "Girl, you have good taste!"
Shu Ran didn't acknowledge it, and laughed it off, saying, "I like the look of you!"
Two rosewood armchairs, a nanmu bookcase, a mahogany table, two kang tables, and a black lacquered dressing table with carved hibiscus patterns.
"And that's all."
In the other two warehouses, they found a hidden drawer with mortise and tenon joints inside the dressing table, containing a small box.
Shu Ran didn't accept either of these items; if you want to buy them, find them yourself—it's quite interesting.
As she passed through the section of road leading to the middle courtyard, Shu Ran unleashed her full mental power, picking and choosing some hidden trinkets, selecting the valuable, interesting, and beautiful ones.
For example, Shu Ran took the erotic pictures from the hidden drawer of the rosewood carved mandarin duck canopy bed, which piqued her interest.
She'd only ever seen them in novels; she'd never actually seen one!
Going back to the beginning, Xiaoqiang calculated and quoted a price.
They're all made of good materials, and the carving is excellent too. It's just that there's been a lot of stock being cleared out recently, so the price has dropped a bit.
But it cost a considerable amount of money. Seeing the broker's knowing look, Shu Ran touched her nose and smiled awkwardly.
He said, "It's rare to find something so good; it could last for generations! It's worth spending a little more!"
"I understand, I understand!" The quack kindly glossed over the topic.
I paid extra to have someone help me transport all the items back.
The toilet and bathroom in the yard are finished, but they need to be left to air dry for a few days.
After settling the wages and seeing everyone off, Shu Ran lay sprawled on the kang (a heated brick bed), feeling drowsy.
No, I haven't eaten yet! And I haven't unpacked it!
Shu Ran struggled to get up and used the firewood she had bought that morning to boil a pot of water.
Looking up at the unobstructed chimney, Shu Ran sighed again, "This Maoya man is indeed reliable!"
Shu Ran took out the boxed lunch she hadn't finished eating that morning and devoured it.
I also opened a fruit gift bag and washed a strawberry that was so red it was almost black, about the size of an adult woman's palm.
It's sweet and sour, not just plain sweet, but with an incredibly rich strawberry flavor, even at the base.
After barely finishing one, Shu Ran patted her slightly full stomach and strolled around the yard a few times.
I'm going out again tomorrow to get my three kittens out of the way so they won't be cooped up in my backpack.
Once she has a good grasp of the terrain, she will go and check out number 169. Before leaving, she will rent it to the government for thirty years, which will be just right.
Looking at the pitch-black room, my treasure hunt plans gave up. It seems I'll have to buy a lamp tomorrow.
sleep!
On the second day after moving to her new home, Shu Ran successfully stayed in bed.
After tidying up, I took two eggs and went out for breakfast—a traditional Chinese jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe).
Okay!
She wasn't from the Acropolis; she preferred the way people ate purple rice pancakes from later generations, with chicken strips, spicy strips, and shredded radish.
After buying a kerosene lamp, Shu Ran wandered around for a while, adding many inconspicuous little items to her home before finally heading home.
On the way, she found a secluded corner and released the three of them, telling them to stay close to her and not get lost.
Shu Ran walked ahead, carrying a full basket on her back, with three cats following not far behind.
I would glance back every now and then, and once I made sure no cats had fallen behind, I would continue walking with peace of mind.
The lock was replaced with a new one. Using the brand-new key, she opened the door and let the three dogs in. Shu Ran followed her into the yard and locked the door.
Shu Ran placed their mats on the floor of the main room and then gave them food and water.
Upon seeing the familiar mat, the three of them leaped onto it and curled up into a ball.
It hadn't been long when it saw Shu Ran feeding it, so it happily ran down and ate a few bites.
I always keep it in my backpack; one meal can last me a long time. I'm not really hungry, just craving something.
"Boom boom boom!"
A knock came from outside. Shu Ran put away the grain she had just placed in the basin and got up to go to the yard.
"Who is it?"
Upon opening the door, a pretty girl, about thirteen or fourteen years old, stood on the steps, holding a plate of persimmon cakes.
"Hello, I am Zhang Pingfang, who lives next door. My mother knows that a new neighbor has moved in, so she asked me to bring some persimmon cakes over."
Shu Ran stepped aside: "Hello, please come in. I've been busy setting up the new house these past few days and haven't had a chance to visit the neighbors yet."
Zhang Pingfang smiled shyly and said, "I couldn't wait any longer. I heard that a girl about my age moved in next door, and I heard the door open, so I came to check it out."
"My name is Shu Ran. I'm thirteen years old. How old are you?"
Shu Ran's identity card states that she is thirteen years old; she's afraid that if she's any older, the truth will be revealed.
"We're about the same age, you can just call me Pingfang. I thought you were only ten years old! You look so young."
Zhang Pingfang was somewhat surprised. Although he was a bit dark-skinned, his face was round and he looked about the same size as her younger brother.
By the way, her younger brother is ten years old and a bit taller than Shu Ran.
"Haha, maybe I'm just a late bloomer!"
Shu Ran changed the subject of age and rummaged through the house to find some candy, actually looking for candy she had bought in Liaocheng before.
"Here, have some candy. We haven't prepared anything at home yet, so we only have some candy that we brought back to treat you."
"Don't be so polite. I just came to introduce myself, nothing more."
Zhang Pingfang held back Shu Ran, who wanted to get busy, and pushed the persimmon cakes over to her.
"Try it, these are persimmon cakes that my mother dried herself, they're delicious."
Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Shu Ran expectantly.
Shu Ran picked up a piece, and her hand was covered in white icing.
"So sweet!"
The familiar taste made Shu Ran nostalgic.
"Right? Right? It's delicious, isn't it?"
"Mmm, they're really delicious. When the persimmon tree in my yard bears fruit, I'm going to make persimmon cakes too."
Shu Ran looked out the window at the tall persimmon tree, its branches and leaves lush and full, looking like it would bear a lot of fruit.
"Okay, I'll teach you then. My mother taught me."
"Okay, thank you!"
"It's settled then. I won't bother you any longer. You can get ready! I need to go back and help my mom cook."
