Finally someone wants the bathtub, so sell it quickly at a low price. It's better than leaving it here gathering dust, and most importantly, it takes up space.

Xia Ran also picked out some other small items, such as umbrellas, rain boots, flashlights, batteries, etc. The prices were indeed much cheaper than those on the counter outside, and seeing that Director Min did not change his expression, Xia Ran shamelessly picked out the items.

You have to be thick-skinned to eat as much as you want! I bought everything I needed or might use. In the end, there were so many things that I couldn't even carry them all.

I paid the money first, and with the help of Director Min and their staff, I moved all the things to the gatehouse in the backyard, and asked the security guard to help and look after them for a while.

I thought of a way to take it away. I originally planned to move it to a corner where no one was and put it away in the space. But I realized that there was a risk.

In this era, although there are no cameras or anything like that, there are still some very "dedicated" and "excellent" thieves and robbers. They are like a pair of eyes, staring at you in the dark all the time. Isn't that scary?

Xia Ran also bought several sharp knives of various lengths and widths. Director Min's eyelids twitched when he saw this. Could it be what he thought?

Director Min kept muttering in his heart, who on earth is this person? The clothes he wore were old and white, with many patches on them, he didn't look like a rich man.

It was a face that was neither ugly nor pretty, just ordinary, with some highland red on it.

The hands were very slender, and at first glance, they were the hands of working people. Without touching them, one could feel their roughness and irritation. The calluses were thick and the joints were large.

But she doesn't look like a poor person when she spends money on things without blinking an eye. She is not polite at all and picks and chooses things. I don't understand...

Xia Ran ignored Director Min's hesitant look, gave him a nice guy card, praised him a lot, and rode away on her bike.

There was no sign of Liangpi Luoluo. How could I get these things home? I was hungry after all the hassle. I rode my bike to the entrance of the cinema and saw a small stall selling Liangpi.

I found a small stool and sat down. I ordered three servings of cold noodles. Let's eat something first. We can talk about other things later. 6 cents per serving is quite cheap and tastes good.

The cold noodles were very soft and chewy. The stall owner was a chubby lady. Xia Ran chatted and asked where she could buy the iron sheet for making cold noodles.

This elder sister was also very open-minded. She said it directly without thinking too much. It was her cousin who helped to bring it from another county. That county was a famous small commodity wholesale base, no wonder.

"Can you bring some over for me? I'll give you 10 bucks for your hard work, how about that?"

"real or fake?"

"Of course it's true."

The eldest sister asked: "Where do you plan to sell in the future?"

"I usually sell in the countryside. My home is a little far from the county town, so it's not very convenient to go into the city. However, during the exchange meeting, I will go into the city for a few days."

"Okay, okay."

"Sister, where did you make this glass cabinet?"

"My baby's second uncle made it himself. Girl, do you want to make one too?"

"Yes, I need one. How about your pedal tricycle? How much is it?"

"I bought this second-hand at a scrapyard for 116 yuan. Girl, you seem to be a very honest person, so I'll tell you the truth. For people like us, it's exposed to the wind and sun every day, so there's no need to buy a new one. I'll spend 100-120 yuan to get a second-hand one that works."

Xia Ran didn't know what to reply?

Sister, are you too honest? Your honesty makes Xia Ran feel like the other party is setting a trap? Setting bait? Is he plotting against her? Want to sell her out?

If I hadn't gone through all my memories and known this place, I would have never discovered the existence of human traffickers. Xia Ran would have suspected that this elder sister was a human trafficker.

"Do you need me to keep an eye out for that second-hand tricycle?"

Xia Ran immediately replied: "Big sister, yes."

"Then wait for me for a while. I only have 6 bowls left before they are sold out. When I finish selling them, I will take you to my house to get acquainted with you."

Xia Ran:?

"Big sister, there's no need to wait for others. Pack them all up for me. I'll take them home and let my family satisfy their cravings."

"Can your family finish it?"

"Of course you can. Rural people have big appetites. You can eat all six bowls by yourself and still not feel full. Do you believe it?"

"Yes, yes. My cousin from my aunt's family came to the city a while ago. I cooked noodles for him according to my husband's appetite. I also made a tomato and egg stew, smashed two cucumbers, and mixed a cold dish. It tasted delicious.

Who knew that he was not full after eating, and he did not tell me. I thought he was full, so I did not ask him again, but he went back hungry. Later, my mother scolded me, saying that the relatives came to your house with great difficulty, but you did not even let them have a full meal, which was too stingy.

As the elder sister was talking, she started laughing.

Xia Ran was also amused and laughed out loud. This elder sister's personality was too funny.

After packing everything, the two chatted all the way, walked for about 5.6- minutes, and stopped in front of a big gate. After chatting for a while, I learned that the eldest sister's surname was Su.

Sister Su got down to unlock the car, pushed the car in, and invited her: "Come in, I'm the only one in my family, my children are in school, my husband is at work, and the old man lives with his second son."

People these days are so honest!

Xia Ran stopped five or six steps away from the door, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, big sister. It's enough for me to know which family it is. I won't go in."

"Come in quickly. My home is convenient and there is no one else here. I am not the kind of person who is picky. There is nothing that I cannot come in. Why are you being so shy? Come in quickly."

Seeing that her elder sister was calling out to her sincerely, Xia Ran could only helplessly explain: "Elder sister, it's not that I'm shy, I'm in mourning and it's not appropriate for me to enter someone else's house."

"Oh, I see. In this case, you really can't go in. Wait for me, I'll push the car and put it away."

"Don't worry, big sister, take your time."

My eldest sister’s house is also a standard three-courtyard house with bricks all the way to the top. It’s obvious at first glance that the family is well-off.

The eldest sister parked the car and brought out a cup of tea with brown sugar for Xia Ran.

Xia Ran casually took out a pack of snacks from her bag and handed it to her elder sister: "Sister, this is a small gift from me."

"Girl, you are too polite. It's not necessary, really not necessary. Dim sum is so expensive. You haven't even entered the door, so why would you bring any gifts? This is not the way to visit relatives." She refused.

"Sister, you are a guest here, so you shouldn't come empty-handed."

"You are a very honest girl. Don't worry, I will ask my second son to give you a cheaper price. Also, my uncle works at the scrap recycling station, so the things he gives me are basically not profitable. I will ask him to keep an eye out for a good one for you."

"Thank you very much."
