My spirit appeared on the road to exile, and I was treated as an ancestor.

Chapter 75 I'm not an ATM!
He Zhen was very clever and immediately understood the meaning of the deity's words. He decided to take advantage of the competition among the major merchants to make the fireworks famous. Therefore, they should not be shown to the public before the Lantern Festival, so as to ensure a stunning effect on the day.

If this plan succeeds, there will be no need to worry about finding a market for the business in the future.

“I understand. Please, God, entrust this matter to me.”

To sell fireworks with just a few pictures and get a major company to cooperate is a risky business, and it's not an easy thing to do.

Gu Xingzhao placed the jade thumb ring on the table. "Go pawn this for some money. If you have any news, use the paper tube on the table to pass on a message to me."

He Zhen accepted the ring with gratitude, saying, "This humble woman kowtows in thanks to the gods!"

After explaining everything, Gu Xingzhao returned to the modern world and weighed the gold lock on the supermarket's electronic scale. It weighed a full 100 grams!

If it were bought back at yesterday's gold price, it would probably only fetch less than 70,000 yuan, but it's an antique, so its price would be much higher.

Moreover, gold is different from other materials. It only gets old over time and doesn't need systematic repair.

This time, Gu Xingzhao didn't plan to ask anyone else; instead, he took a picture with his phone and sent it to Xu Shisan.

Gu Xingzhao: Do ​​you buy antique gold locks?
Xu Shisan replied almost instantly: Received!
Upon seeing the message, Gu Xingzhao immediately rummaged through his wardrobe for clothes, preparing to go to the city to sell the gold lock and buy some other things.

As she was leaving, she glanced at her phone and saw that Xu Shisan had flooded her WeChat feed in just ten minutes.

Xu Shisan: Sister, how much do you want to sell this gold lock for?

Xu Shisan: Sister, are you coming to the shop?

Xu Shisan: I can provide door-to-door service. Just give me your home address, and I'll drive over. I have a driver's license, and I can even give you a ride.

Xu Shisan: Sister, would you do me the honor of having a meal with me? You can bring your daughter along.

Gu Xingzhao's forehead twitched. What exactly was Xu Shisan up to? What did he have that Xu Shisan could possibly want?

The drive from the town to the antique street in the city was quite a distance. Xu Shisan waited in the shop. In order to change Gu Xingzhao's opinion of him, he completely changed his appearance. He imitated his uncle, wearing a black Zhongshan suit, getting a new hairstyle, and wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses.

The shop assistant, seeing this, smiled inwardly: "Young master, although that young lady is young and beautiful, she already has a daughter. Let's not try to get involved, shall we?"

That's so unfair!

Xu Shisan, however, was fixing his hair with an antique bronze mirror. "You wouldn't understand."

He took a liking to the jade pendant Gu Xingzhao was wearing at first sight, and felt that it was a preordained fate!
If you want to get that jade pendant, you have to try your best to please its owner.

When Gu Xingzhao walked into the store, he saw Xu Shisan waiting there and almost thought he had gone to the wrong store. The change was really too great.

As soon as she sat down, she took out a gold lock from her body. It was a heavy piece, and she placed it on the table. "A pure gold antique lock, no deception, take a look."

Xu Shisan picked up the gold lock, weighed it in his hand, and held up four fingers to Gu Xingzhao. "Sister, you're a regular customer, I'll give you this amount." Gu Xingzhao raised an eyebrow. Four hundred thousand?
"This is a pure gold antique lock of mine. You can't find anything this good anywhere else. It's not fair of you to offer me this price."

Xu Shisan was slightly taken aback; they were even haggling now. "So, what price do you want?"

Gu Xingzhao smiled slightly and held up a finger, "I want at least this much."

Xu Shisan almost spat out his tea. Six hundred thousand?!

This gold lock is worth at most 500,000, but she bargained and asked for 200,000 more than I asked for. That's really outrageous. Anyone who didn't know better would think she came to me to collect money.

I'm not an ATM!
However, the next second, Xu Shisan's gaze fell on the red string around Gu Xingzhao's neck. He thought of the jade pendant he had been longing for, and of changing his image in Gu Xingzhao's heart, and of trying to please her.
He gritted his teeth and hardened his heart, "Fine, I'll give you this amount."

It's just money. The Xu family has no shortage of money. Spending money to buy happiness is worth it!
Although Gu Xingzhao had her suspicions about Xu Shisan's straightforwardness, she didn't care about anything else as long as she got the money. After the money was transferred to her bank account, her gaze finally fell on Xu Shisan, and she couldn't help but ask, "Did you suffer a shock?"

Xu Shisan didn't understand: "?"

Gu Xingzhao scanned him up and down. His outfit looked really out of place. He had a cute face, but he insisted on dressing like this and had an old-fashioned hairstyle, like a child deliberately trying to look mature.

Her hesitant manner was a huge blow to Xu Shisan.

He ripped off his glasses, deciding to be direct, and asked Gu Xingzhao, "What kind of man do you like?"

Gu Xingzhao pondered for a moment, picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and slowly said, "The older ones are gentle and refined, well-read, have the people in their hearts, and take it as their responsibility to help the world."

Xu Shisan remained silent: "."

He, being older, could understand that she was looking for someone who was caring, gentle, refined, and well-read. He could also interpret it as her liking for cultured people who cared about the common people and took it upon themselves to help the world.
What came to mind were the images of important figures discussing national affairs at major conferences in the news, but how did he become like that?

Xu Shisan was stumped; this wasn't something that could be accomplished simply by having money.

Even after Gu Xingzhao left, he was still thinking about this matter.

After leaving the antique street, Gu Xingzhao went to a wholesale factory and bought some more food and drinks. Thinking that the soles of Lu Qing and the others' shoes were probably worn out, she also bought a batch of soft and comfortable shoes. She even bought two lightweight wheelchairs and tried them out herself, finding them very comfortable.

The four-wheeled car won't be available for now, so let's get Lu Qing a two-wheeled car first. Anyway, Du Hangwu is practically one-third one of our own people, so it doesn't matter if it's a bit conspicuous. Once they're no longer traveling on the rugged mountain roads, we can give it to Lu Qing, or to the women who are suffering from menstrual cramps and can't walk. That would be nice too.

After buying all that, she also bought a batch of women's personal clothing, as well as overnight pants for special occasions. For situations where she had to travel every day and had nowhere to wash up, overnight pants would be more suitable than sanitary napkins.

Gu Xingzhao suddenly realized that these things could also be sold in ancient times, but for now, he should focus on the fireworks business.

The wholesaler remembered that she had just received a lot of goods from her last order. Why was she ordering again so soon, and in such large quantities this time? Although he could never have too much business, he was still puzzled. "Little Gu, can your little supermarket really sell this much?"

In his memory, Gu Xingzhao's small supermarket wasn't very big.
