I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

Chapter 33: Unworthy descendants are found all over the world
When Chen Xi first arrived in Australia, his first host family was an Aboriginal family, and that period of life gave him a headache.

The same thing happened to a little girl from Sakura Country who lived with him. Both of them were discriminated against by their family.

Not only is the quality of the three meals a day unsatisfactory, but the time for taking a shower is less than ten minutes, which is unbearable.

What's even more outrageous is that on the premise of paying living expenses on time every month, this family actually asked the two to take responsibility for cleaning.

The young lady from Sakura Country was responsible for indoor hygiene, while Chen Xi, as a man, was assigned to take care of garden affairs, including mowing the lawn, watering the flowers and clearing the bushes.

This completely treats him as a gardener.

He was always puzzled as to why these people, who were once indigenous people, displayed such a condescending attitude.

A person from a country with thousands of years of glorious history actually suffered discrimination from a group of modern indigenous people, which made him feel extremely depressed and unfair.

Chen Xi glanced at the male aboriginal in front of him, who was about thirty years old.

He has black curly hair and bronze skin, and it is obvious that this unique appearance was formed after several rounds of intermarriage.

The face has clear contours, showing a combination of ruggedness and softness.

"Don't you want these things anymore?" Chen Xi pointed at the things on the ground.

"Well, how much is your recycling price?" the man asked cautiously.

Although Chen Xi did not have much affection for these aborigines, he still had to do business. He suppressed his emotions and patiently asked the man about the pile of strange things on the ground.

A stick that looked a bit old, with indescribable black stains on the surface.

A rough-looking human-shaped sculpture, although the workmanship is a bit rough, it still exudes a unique atmosphere.

Several worn bone artifacts were covered in dust, carrying an indescribable antiquity and solemnity.

There are also some seemingly strange bracelets and pendants.

"What is this?" Chen Xi picked up the stick and looked at it.

"I don't know. I've always kept it in the basement at home." The man shook his head.

"This can't be some weird thing." Chen Xi said with some concern.

"It's the 21st century now, and there are still some Chinese people who don't believe in science?" The man showed an impatient look on his face.

Damn these natives. I was just asking a question, but they started mocking me as soon as they opened their mouths.

Chen Xi really wanted to kick the other person twice, but he finally held back.

Damn your sense of superiority! No wonder you were invaded before. You deserved it.

"How about a hundred bucks?"

He really couldn't calculate the value of these things, but those items looked quite old. If he took them to an antique shop and resold them, he might make some profit.

"One hundred? Do you think I'm a fool? Others' recycling price is thirty yuan." The man smiled contemptuously.

"Oh, okay, as long as you're happy." Chen Xi nodded in agreement.

Facing the man in front of him, Chen Xi couldn't help but feel ecstatic.

This stupid native actually mistook his bid for the estimated price of scrap recycling.

When processing recycling garbage in Australia, people need to pay the recycling workers. Obviously this guy misunderstood what he meant.

Therefore, Chen Xi not only got thirty yuan, but also harvested a pile of waste.

"Why would this guy give you money?"

"He's stupid and has a lot of money!"

When Xiao Ming got on the car, he looked at Chen Xi with some confusion, and the latter shrugged helplessly, indicating that he didn't know either.

Apparently, the man just now regarded these items as discarded garbage, so he chose to throw them away at will.

"I think those things are quite weird." Xiao Ming felt something was unusual when looking at those bone pendants.

"It's the 21st century. Can you believe in science a little? You are a college student after all." Chen Xi responded unhappily, then looked back at the junk in the car.

Could these things really be weird?

It seems that the Indians in the movies all use some magical witchcraft.

"Let's put this thing in the warehouse. I'll take it there and dispose of it as soon as possible tomorrow. It seems a bit creepy." Chen Xi said, touching his forehead.

After putting the pile of stuff into the warehouse, several people silently chanted "Evil spirits go away" in their hearts and left in a hurry.

"What? Please say it again!" The next day, in the Shiguang Antique Shop, Chen Xi looked at the boss in disbelief and asked again. There was a middle-aged man next to him, who was the appraiser hired by the boss.

"This is a tablet. Is it for your ancestors?" The appraiser took the tablet and carefully examined Chen Xi's left and right halves, and made a comparison.

"It belongs to your ancestors!" Chen Xi rolled his eyes at him to show his dissatisfaction.

"English please!" The appraiser said he could not understand Mandarin.

When he learned that the ugly human-shaped statue was actually the ancestor of the natives, he could no longer suppress his smile.

It is hard to imagine that this native actually treated the tablet of his ancestors as nothing, discarded it like garbage, and even paid thirty yuan for the disposal fee.

"This thing is about 150 years old. In the minds of the indigenous people, this tablet is used as a carrier and container for the souls of ancestors, regularly receiving sacrifices and important inquiries from descendants." The appraiser began to explain.

"Where did you get this?" asked the boss.

"I received it from a filial son." Chen Xi told the truth without any intention of hiding it.

"This is a statue of a male ancestor. Men usually squat, while women have their legs crossed..." The appraiser began his analysis again.

"How much is this thing worth?" Chen Xi asked the price directly after listening.

"Although this thing is very rare, it is found all over the world. However, its target market is very small and it is not that popular." The appraiser put down the statue.

"Probably around three thousand yuan," the appraiser added.

Chen Xi was a little excited. He originally thought that he could only sell it for thirty yuan, but it turned out to be a hundred times more.

That guy is really a good person. He will never have any problem with the natives again.

He was so happy that he quickly asked the boss to see the remaining things.

"This is a scepter used by an indigenous chief..." The appraiser picked up the stick.

Chen Xi was shocked. The black fire stick turned out to be a scepter. He didn't know what to say.

The native last night might be the descendant of a tribal chief.

But then he thought again, there seemed to be hundreds of indigenous tribes, and this thing was probably not worth much money.

"I can buy this scepter for five thousand." The boss entered the number five thousand on the calculator.

A broken stick is actually worth 5,000 Australian dollars. This boss must be a money-giving boy!

After seeing another 5,000 yuan deposited into his account, Chen Xi nodded and indicated that it was okay.

The things at the back were not of high value, so Chen Xi simply packed them all up and sold them, earning a total of 9,000 Australian dollars, which was considered a small fortune.

"Give me a glass of watermelon juice!"

"Ok."

After leaving the antique shop, he turned the corner and came to the Boost juice shop, a popular local Australian brand that once entered the Chinese market but gradually withdrew because Chinese people were not interested in the overpriced juice.

"Huh? Didn't you hand out flyers in the mobile phone store before?" Chen Xi asked the girl.

The girl at the cashier turned out to be the one who handed Chen Xi the flyer last time.

Did this girl change jobs again?

"Yeah, I work three jobs at the same time." The girl smiled at him.

"come on!"

Looking at the girl's sweet but tired face, Chen Xi gave her a thumbs up without hesitation to encourage her.

"Thank you."

The girl smiled sweetly at him, her tired look dissipated a little, and now she seemed full of energy again.

In China, many people think that international students must live a carefree and happy life abroad. However, they may not realize that there are some students from ordinary families who can only rely on their own hard work to complete their studies.

The girl in front of me is exactly like that.

She struggled silently, working three jobs at the same time, demonstrating tenacity and perseverance.

"Hey, look at others, I am just a salted fish."

"But among the second-generation rich, I am considered hardworking."

After saying goodbye to the girl, Chen Xi took a sip of iced watermelon juice and couldn't help but sigh at the differences between people.
