Chapter 1051: Became a wild man

Dongli Village

Cheng family

Various old objects were placed on the table.

Among them were porcelain bowls, cups, bronze ware, calligraphy, snuff bottles...

"Thank you for your hard work."

Cao Weiguo handed thirty yuan and one hundred jin of national grain coupons to Cheng Xin.

The Cheng siblings thanked him repeatedly with joy.

These things were all exchanged from the villagers with eggs and corn flour.

It only took forty-some eggs and forty-some jin of rice.

Cao Weiguo gave so much at once, enough for the family's expenses for several months.

Cheng Xin said embarrassedly: "Big Brother Cao, this is too much, right."

Cao Weiguo smiled: "This is the reward you deserve. In the future, I'm counting on you siblings to help me find more old objects."

Carrying the package out of Cheng Xin's house, Cao Weiguo came to the warehouse the brigade helped him find.

He put the package into the storage space, and then took out a batch of supplies from the farm.

When the agreed time arrived, Liu Shan brought people to Dongli Village.

Under Cao Weiguo's command, they loaded the supplies, sack by sack, onto the flatbed carts.

After loading the carts, Cao Weiguo said the same old thing: "Still the same words, be careful above all."

Liu Shan said solemnly: "I'm keeping it in mind. Big Brother, don't worry. We can be considered old hands, I guarantee nothing will go wrong."

Cao Weiguo nodded: "Fine, you guys go back."

Liu Shan and the others left, pedaling the flatbed carts with faces full of joy.

Such a batch of supplies would definitely allow them to make a big profit and have a New Year that is fat and oily.

"Chief Cao! Is Chief Cao here?"

In the room where the supplies were stored, Cao Weiguo heard someone calling him. He went out and saw it was Li Xiuxia, who had sold him a Song Dynasty incense burner.

Cao Weiguo greeted with a smile: "Sister Li, long time no see, looking for me for something?"

Li Xiuxia got straight to the point: "I dug up an old object from home, see if it's of any use."

Cao Weiguo said with a smile: "Fine, where is the thing."

Li Xiuxia took a rectangular wooden box out of her cotton-padded jacket pocket.

"Take a look."

Taking the wooden box from Li Xiuxia's hand, Cao Weiguo's eyes lit up instantly.

This wooden box is yellow pear wood!

Opening the wooden box, an inkstone was lying inside.

The inkstone is of jade quality, with jade flowers and cracks, flat and rectangular. There are two round pools on the inkstone surface, one deep and one shallow, one small and one large, used as an ink pool and an inkstone hall. The back of the inkstone is flat, and the inkstone body is polished and smooth.

Li Xiuxia asked with expectation: "Chief Cao, how is this thing? Do you want it?"

Cao Weiguo said: "This object is not bad, Sister Li, how do you want to exchange it?"

Li Xiuxia was overjoyed upon hearing this: "I want to exchange it for twenty jin of white flour, is that okay?"

Hearing that Li Xiuxia didn't want money but wanted white flour, Cao Weiguo wasn't surprised.

Whether in the countryside or in the city, rice, flour, and oil are more practical than money these days.

"Fine, Sister Li, wait a moment, I'll go into the room and get it for you."

Cao Weiguo agreed readily, went into the room, and brought out half a bag of white flour to hand to Li Xiuxia.

Li Xiuxia took the white flour and said: "Chief Cao, you gave too much."

This half bag of white flour was heavy, and even without a scale, Li Xiuxia could feel that this white flour was far more than twenty jin.

Cao Weiguo said with a smile: "It's almost New Year, the extra is just a little bit of my heart."

Li Xiuxia thanked him: "Thank you, Chief Cao, you are a great person." ===== CHAPTER 1053 =====
