Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 169: Last week? Shang Zhou!
That night, because the night before was too exciting.

I wanted to experience the Ximen Waves of yesterday again, so I prepared a romantic candlelight dinner early.

I just wanted to make sure Bai Ling had a good and delicious meal, and then, once she was touched, I would reward myself like I did last night.

While enjoying the meal, Bai Ling suddenly said:
"Do you want some bronze artifacts? I was trying to get you enough usable antiques and furniture to meet your daily needs. I got a ton of items from before the Ming Dynasty, and I'm almost out of space."

"Lao Luo and I don't have any use for it, so it would be a shame to just leave it sitting there gathering dust. If you need it, just take it away. No matter how much you can get for it, just don't let it go to waste."

Ximen Lang was imagining how Bai Ling would reward him.

When Ximen Lang heard about the bronze artifacts, he subconsciously responded without taking it seriously.

"Bronze artifact? Is it from the Shang or Zhou dynasty? If it's not, I don't want it."

Seeing Ximen Lang gave in, Bai Ling hurriedly said.

"Since it's bronze, it must be from the Shang and Zhou dynasties! But not all of them are from the Shang and Zhou dynasties. There are definitely bronze artifacts from other dynasties, such as the Han, Sui and Tang dynasties, but the Shang and Zhou dynasties are definitely the mainstream!"

It seems that Bai Ling was not talking about the joke last week, but the serious business week!
Ximen Lang couldn't help but say.

"No, is it really Shang and Zhou?"

"The experts have authenticated it, so how could it be fake?"

Ximen Lang was so annoyed by it.

I was afraid that Ximen Lang would be scared by these things and start to retreat.

Bai Ling hurriedly explained.

"Actually, there aren't that many, only about a hundred or so. They're all common shapes, nothing special. They just take up too much space, and I don't know how to handle them."

"So I was thinking, do you have any ideas on how to find a suitable place for these things and properly store them?"

"A hundred or so isn't that a lot? Then how many is a lot?"

Ximen Lang was really defeated by Bai Ling's calmness when she said this.

If this were to happen in the modern world, if a private individual had so many bronze artifacts and wanted to trade them,
"Execution is a light punishment! We'll have to use machine guns and artillery to shoot them, don't you know?!"

"Is it that serious?"

"What do you think?!"

Seeing that the consequences were so serious, Bai Ling seemed to be really scared by what Ximen Lang said, and said with fear.

"Is it that serious? Forget it. So, I'll tell Lao Luo later to stop messing around. If you need to raise money and sell it, just do it and save the space."

"What the hell?! You're going to melt them down and sell them for money?!"

I have seen people squandering things, but I have never seen Ximen Lang squandering things like that. His voice rose eight octaves.

Pointing at Bai Ling, he scolded.

"Spendthrift woman! Do you know that the value of these things lies in their appearance? And yet you want to melt them down and sell them for scrap? Are you stupid?!"

"I don't want to either, but there's really no point in keeping these things. If I sell them too high, no one will want them, and if I sell them too low, I'll feel like I'm losing money. It's better to just melt them down and use them as raw materials. That way, the value will be higher."

These words made Ximen Lang not know what to say.

I really cherish and feel sorry for those cultural relics. I can't bear to see them, which should be priceless, end up in such a state.

Thinking of all the boasts Xia Yiyi had made before.
Ximen Lang sighed.

"I'll give it a try. If it works, that would be great. But if it doesn't, even if it doesn't, you can't melt it for me! I'm talking to you, do you hear me? You loser woman!"

She called him a spendthrift woman as soon as she opened her mouth, and Bai Ling rolled her eyes when she heard it.

But there is no way, this matter still depends on Ximen Lang.

So, although she was very dissatisfied with this, Bai Ling still replied honestly.

"Okay, got it. I won't touch them without your permission. Is that okay?"

He didn't even mention Xia Yiyi's matter. He just said it was not possible and melted it directly, and let Ximen Lang take the initiative to take over the matter.

After finishing the job, seeing Ximen Lang getting restless again, Bai Ling quickly changed the subject, saying it was not the right time yet.

"Wait until night, when everyone's asleep. I promise I won't say anything! I really can't do that now!"

After hearing what Bai Ling said, Ximen Lang also glanced out the window at the courtyard scenery with a strong smell of fireworks.

Indeed, it is a bit too ridiculous to do anything at this time.

Many children were having fun and were still running around the yard.

Adults also visit each other and chat with each other.

It is indeed a bit inappropriate to pull up the curtains and do things right now.

I have never been so annoyed by this shabby compound as I am now, Ximen Lang said dejectedly.

"I'm going to buy this courtyard sooner or later! Just the two of us will live here, and I don't think anyone can bother me anymore!"

Amidst Bai Ling's teasing, he patiently chatted with her for a while.

Then he pretended to be a serious person and let Bai Ling leave his nest.

It was just late at night and the people in the yard had just fallen asleep.

Ximen Lang couldn't wait any longer, so he tiptoed directly to where Bai Ling was.

Thanks to his long-acquired lock-picking skills, Ximen Lang was able to open Bai Ling's door in just a few seconds.

Like a slippery loach, he burrowed in.

The reward session that Ximen Lang had been waiting for for a long time finally arrived.

"No, we can't go on like this! If we keep going on like this, I'll be the first one to die before you get hurt!"

The next day.

Bai Ling was so exhausted that she couldn't express it in words because she hadn't slept much for two nights in a row.

Ximen Lang was like a tireless calf, and he never stopped for a moment.

There are a lot of things waiting for her to deal with during the day, and at night
I really can't stand this kind of non-stop noise.

Early in the morning, Ximen Lang, who started to act dishonestly again, was kicked off the bed.

In the face of Ximen Lang's strong dissatisfaction, Bai Ling said she was unwilling to continue like this no matter what.

In fact, Ximen Lang was also a little puzzled.

Although he used to often stay up late to practice Taoism and play games for whole nights.

He even achieved the glorious record of staying up for two days and two nights!

But it was also very tiring.

It’s not like now. Not only did I endure two days in a row, but I also lost so much energy all at once. Yet, I’m still as energetic as if nothing had happened.

I can even play games all day today!

Feeling that he was somewhat abnormal, Ximen Lang decisively bit his arm.

I couldn't bear the pain even though I didn't put much effort.

The bite marks were clearly visible and did not improve for a long time.

Ximen Langhe immediately denied the fact that he had become a superman and discussed it with Bai Ling, feeling sorry for her.

"Okay, okay, okay, I will behave myself tonight! I won't do anything rash, I swear!"

Finally, I got the chance to continue sleeping with him.

After washing up, Lao Luo took Bai Ling and went straight to the warehouse filled with all kinds of good things.
