Traveling Through the Grave Robbers' Chronicles: Starting from Meeting You
Chapter 47 Before resting, the bronze bell should be handed over to Qingsong
Zhang Haike stood in front of Zhang Hanyan and Zhang Qiling. When the man was about to attack, the other three rushed in and stood with him to protect the two people behind them.
"What do you want to do? You want to rob me if the deal fails?"
"Don't be afraid. Let him try to snatch one. Let's see if he gets the jade pendant first or we cut off his hand first!"
Zhang Hanyan looked at the four people standing in a human wall, and a strong warmth rose in her heart.
She walked over with the jade pendant, walked around them and stood in front, looking at the man face to face.
Just when the man didn't understand what she meant, he picked up the jade pendant, held it high, and spoke loudly.
“This jade is a family heirloom. Now my parents have passed away. As you can see, we are just a bunch of half-grown children in my family. We really don’t have the ability to support ourselves. We have no choice but to sell the jade.
We just want to sell it at a satisfactory price. The money we earn can allow my brother and I to go back to our hometown and buy a hut to live out the rest of our lives.
Yujue has been with our family for many years. Now, we not only want to sell it for a good price, but also want to find a new owner for Yujue who knows the value of it and will take good care of it.
If there is no one among you who knows what is good, we will leave immediately."
Zhang Haike and the other three looked at her in disbelief as she put away the jade pendant, and they all thought the same thing in their hearts.
My parents are dead? If my parents knew that I told them they were dead, they would beat me to death!
Zhang Hanyan looked at Zhang Qiling and the others who surrounded her like bodyguards and said, "Let's go. Let's think of other ways."
Several people sighed in frustration and walked out dejectedly.
Zhang Hanyan walked forward, silently reciting in her heart: one, two, three...
"Wait! Little girl, please stay. Can you let me see your jade pendant?"
A stall owner who was selling antiques and collectibles shouted to stop Zhang Hanyan and the others from leaving, walked quickly up to them, and asked kindly.
A smug smile appeared on Zhang Hanyan's lips. Her impassioned speech just now was just to hook the person in front of her.
When she just walked in here, she noticed the old man squatting on the street corner setting up a stall.
Although he was dressed in ordinary clothes, his aura could not be deceived. Therefore, she deliberately sold the jade pendant opposite him because she wanted to sell it to him.
Sell it to the only person in the market who can afford it and is willing to pay for it.
She turned around with a smile and took out the jade pendant, "Of course, old man, you can look at it however you want."
The white-haired old man took the jade pendant, put on the gold-rimmed glasses hanging on his chest and looked at it carefully.
"Well, the age of this jade is quite good, but it has a little flaw in its appearance, and it is this flaw that makes its price drop.
Little girl, the price you just mentioned is too high, I’ll give you this amount…”
The old man stretched out four fingers, and the people watching around him gasped.
Zhang Hanyan didn't need that much money in the first place, she just asked for a higher price to leave some room for bargaining.
Now that the price the old man mentioned was in line with her psychological price, she didn't say anything more and immediately nodded in agreement.
"In that case, then you can come with me. I don't have that much money on me. Come with me home to get it."
"Okay, let's just follow the old man."
Zhang Hanyan's thoughtful manners made the old man more convinced that these children were the ones whose families had fallen into poverty and who had no choice but to sell off their family heirlooms.
The six people followed the old man into an exquisite and luxurious mansion. At his invitation, they sat in the front hall and waited for the servants to bring the money.
From the moment they sat down, the old man looked at the six people calmly to see if their eyes were attracted by the luxury before them.
They are children from the Zhang family. No matter how exquisite and luxurious the old man's house is, it cannot compare to the Zhang family's house.
They sat in their seats without looking around, waiting to be paid and delivered the goods before leaving.
"Master, this is four thousand yuan, please count it..."
The old man took the money, counted it carefully and handed it to Zhang Hanyan. He could see that although this little girl looked the youngest, she was indeed the one who could make the decisions.
After Zhang Hanyan counted everything and confirmed that it was correct, she placed the jade pendant on the low table next to the old man.
"Old sir, we have already paid for the goods. We still have to catch the carriage, so we will leave now."
"Okay, don't show off your wealth. Be careful on the road."
"Thank you for your concern, sir. We all know that. Take care, sir. Goodbye."
Zhang Hanyan looked at Zhang Qiling, "Brother, let's go. It's time to go home."
"Well, let's go."
The six people bid farewell to the old man, took a vehicle going the same way, and tried their best to return to the distant Zhang family within the specified time limit.
Ten days later, the six got off the bus in a small town not far from Zhang's home and hurriedly ran towards Zhang's home.
They hurried all the way and finally stepped into Zhang's gate just before the sun set and returned to Zhang's house within the specified time.
"Oh my god, luckily we made it in time. If we hadn't come back in time, wouldn't our year of wandering outside be wasted?"
"Oh, let's not talk about this for now. Let's hand the things over to the Elders' Council as soon as possible, or else we will be in trouble if it's too late."
"Yes, let's go to the Elders' Council!"
Zhang Haike and the others walked forward for a distance, and when they saw that Zhang Hanyan and Zhang Qiling had not caught up with them, they all stopped running and turned back to look at them.
"Why don't you leave? If you don't get to the Elders' Council soon, it will be locked."
Zhang Qiling thought about the bronze bell in his backpack that he couldn't show to the public, and said, "You guys go first, we have to go back first."
"Yes, you guys go ahead. My brother and I are going to go back and see if the master has returned. We will deliver the things to the Elders' Council tomorrow."
Zhang Hanyan smiled and waved her hand, signaling Zhang Haike and the others to go first.
Although Zhang Haike and the others didn't know why they were unwilling to go with them, they didn't want to ask the reasons behind it.
Everyone has secrets, especially the Zhang family, which has so many secrets.
Being talkative and knowing too much will only lead to your death quietly in this huge family.
"Okay, then you two can go back, and the four of us will go to the Elders' Council. We can make an appointment to hang out together sometime in the future!"
Zhang Haike smiled and waved, then turned and left after Zhang Hanyan smiled and nodded.
"Brother, they have already left. Let's go too. After we go back, have a good rest for a while."
Zhang Qiling looked at her smiling face and thought that before resting, the bronze bell should be handed over to Qingsong.
