, the fastest update of the goddess’s wealthy son-in-law (also known as: the goddess’s super son-in-law, protagonist: Zhao Xu)!
In Zhao Xu's view, the market value of this golden nanmu box is around five million. But without a skilled auctioneer, the most you can get is about two million. Unless I meet someone who knows the goods like him, and have the blessing of a clever auctioneer, I can only get about five million.
But what puzzled Zhao Xu was that this wooden box was about 35 centimeters long and only about 25 centimeters wide. He didn't know what it was used for.
It is really a waste of golden nanmu to use this noble wood to make such a small thing.
Zhao Xu signaled his sister-in-law Li Miaomiao to be silent and asked the young man: "You said this wooden box is an heirloom of your family, then what is it used for?"
"It's for the book credit!"
"Pack letters?"
Zhao Xu suddenly realized after hearing this.
He deliberately said to the young man: "This is just an ordinary wooden box. How can you call it a family heirloom?"
The young man explained: "According to my grandfather, this thing has been passed down in my Li family for hundreds of years. It has not rotted or deformed to this day, and it looks like good wood."
"That's not worth a million, right?"
"I will sell it at this price, you can buy it or not. Because I need so much money."
Only then did Zhao Xu understand the reason why the young man sold one million yuan. It seemed that he was encountering difficulties at home.
Li Miaomiao couldn't help but said angrily: "Who do you think is being taken advantage of? Even one million dollars is not worth it to me."
"Miaomiao, don't talk too much!" Zhao Xu scolded Li Miaomiao.
Zhao Xu is originally from Sioux City. Hearing that the man's accent was mixed with a Su City accent, he asked the young man: "Brother, your hometown is from Su City, right?"
"Hey, how do you know?" the young man asked with a look of surprise on his face.
Zhao Xu smiled slightly and said, "My hometown is originally from Su City."
"Oh, then we are half fellow villagers."
"Brother, what's your name?"
"My name is Li Yan."
Previously, this young man said that the wooden box was an heirloom of their "Li" family. That's why Zhao Xu asked this question.
Zhao Xu heard that Li Yan's accent was mixed with Su Cheng's accent, which attracted his attention.
Because Li Gang, the last Taoist cultivator on earth, once told him and Shadow to help find his descendants in Jiangning Mansion and Lijia Village.
After Zhao Xu came out of Savage Shennongjia, he used various connections but failed to find Li Gang's descendants. Therefore, I basically have no expectations for this matter.
But when he heard that the other party's surname was Li, his accent had a Suzhou accent, and he had a golden nanmu box that had been passed down for hundreds of years, this aroused Zhao Xu's vigilance.
Zhao Xu just had the attitude of giving it a try.
In the vast sea of people, trying to find Li Gang's descendants is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Zhao Xu deliberately asked Li Yan: "Li Yan, did your ancestors live in Lijia Village, Jiangning Prefecture?"
"no!"
Li Yan shook his head and said, "We live in West Village, Yunyu District."
Although Zhao Xu's hometown is also from Sioux City, he has never heard of a place like "West Village", not even Yunyu District.
He asked casually: "Where is the West Village in Yunyu District?"
“At Sulu Junction!”
"How long have you been in Yunjiang?"
"More than ten years ago. When I was twelve years old, I came here with my dad. It's just..."
At this point, Li Yan looked sad and said no more.
Said to Zhao Xu: "If you don't buy it, don't bother me. I'm going back!"
After saying that, he turned around and limped forward.
Zhao Xu ordered Hong Man on the side: "Aman, go and bring our car."
"Okay, Master Zhao!"
Hong Man hurriedly left the scene with another subordinate.
Zhao Xu, his sister-in-law Li Miaomiao, and three other Hong Man's men continued to follow Li Yan.
Li Miaomiao complained to Zhao Xu in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, this man is completely unreasonable. Why are you following him?"
In Zhao Xu's view, no matter whether the other party is a descendant of Li Gang or not, he must find out. In addition, something must have happened to Li Yan's family, so he should help if he can.
Zhao Xu replied to Li Miaomiao: "I am interested in that small wooden box."
"He's selling it for one million. You don't really want to spend one million to buy a broken box, do you?"
"That's not necessarily true!" Zhao Xu smiled.
Li Yan found that people like Zhao Xu were still following him.
He stopped, turned around, glared at Zhao Xu and others, and warned: "You'd better not follow me anymore. Otherwise, even if I can't defeat you, I will fight you tooth and nail."
"You misunderstood! We have a car and we just want to drive you back. In addition, I am interested in the wooden box you are holding and want to see your family situation before deciding whether to buy it or not."
"You're not entertaining me, are you?"
Zhao Xu shrugged and said, "Do you think I have time to pester you on purpose?"
"My wooden box sells for one million, and I won't sell it for a penny less."
"Money is not the problem. The problem is that I want to meet your family and ask about the origin of this box. If you steal this thing, I will become a suspect if I buy it."
What Zhao Xu said was so reasonable that Li Yan could not refute it.
Li Yan said to Zhao Xu: "I won't hide it from you. There is only one grandfather in my family. But he is sick! So, I'm afraid you will be disappointed if you go."
"It doesn't matter!"
Li Yan said nothing more.
In his opinion, if he could really sell the wooden box in his hand. Then his grandfather's medical expenses will be settled.
Although I know the chances are slim, I still want to try.
Because, other than this method, he had no way to raise one million in a short period of time.
He can't come up with even 10,000 yuan now, let alone one million.
Soon, Hong Man and another subordinate drove to the scene.
Zhao Xu personally sat in the driving position and called to Li Yan: "Get in the car!"
Li Yan then limped into the car.
Li Miaomiao felt a little unhappy, but because Zhao Xu was present, it was inconvenient to attack Li Yan.
In her opinion, Li Yan is an ungrateful person. If her brother-in-law really spent one million to buy this wooden box, he would really be taken for granted.
As Zhao Xu drove, he said to Li Yan: "Li Yan, come and show the way."
"This road is open all the time. It doesn't work when leaving the city!"
When Zhao Xu heard that it was ineffective, he couldn't help but frowned.
But he still followed the route pointed by Li Yan and drove the car to the end of the road.
After arriving at Huiwai, we drove for about half an hour before arriving at a relatively remote village.
Li Yan pointed to a courtyard with a broken door in front and said, "That's the courtyard in front!"
Zhao Xu stopped the car in front of the door.
Other houses have gray tiles and high walls, but the house Li Yan and his family live in is still a dilapidated house made of rubble.
After Li Yan got off the car, he opened the courtyard door and walked in.
As he walked, he shouted loudly: "Grandpa, I'm back!"
