Chapter 212: 212 Equivalent Exchange (Second Update)At night, Xiaofeng stayed in the magical space. Xiaoqi looked at the few large items in front of it and couldn’t make heads or tails of them after examining them repeatedly, "The jade is indeed fine, of excellent quality with abundant spiritual energy, Master, you can certainly wear it." In this era, encountering a piece of jade full of spiritual energy was not an easy feat. Xiaofeng tried it on, and it fit perfectly, "You know, it’s actually quite suitable." Searᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The bracelet had a flowing purple hue, crystal clear and lustrous, and wearing it on the wrist, the cool sensation immediately spread throughout the body, giving a very soft and very serene feeling. "Master, let’s also keep these few items in the magical space to nurture them for a while to see what they are?" It wanted to study and see exactly what those pitch-black items were. "Does this gold teapot have any special features, and is it really made of gold?" This teapot must weigh several pounds. "It is real gold, and it’s quite old. Look at this craftsmanship, it’s not from recent times, it should be an antique. Such products shouldn’t be priced merely by weight; they should be valued by their craftsmanship." "I was thinking of selling it, but now that seems impossible." Xiaofeng was surprised. "If you really want to sell it, it’s not impossible." Xiaoqi said mysteriously with a smile, "Our storage room has another function, do you know what it is, Master?" "What?" "When you put something in from the outside, you can take out something of equal value." Xiaofeng quickly understood, "You mean, if you put a gold teapot in here, you can take a gold teapot out of the space, but it’s not my own, it would be a replica made by the space," that’s the idea, right? "Yes, exactly," the master was indeed quick-witted, "But, you can only take out the same amount of gold, not an identical teapot." The space calculated by weight. "Then can I still take out my own teapot if I want to use it later on?" "Of course, you can." Xiaoqi jumped excitedly, "The space won’t abscond with your personal property." Xiaofeng placed the gold teapot in the exchange shelf of the storage room corresponding to the same weight, and immediately a block of gold of the same weight appeared. This meant that the block of gold she held could be sold directly. According to the gold prices of the era, at about seventy-nine per gram, this gold block altogether weighed two thousand two hundred grams. If converted into cash, that would be roughly one hundred and seventy to nearly two hundred thousand. In other words, with this block of gold, she had become a wealthy woman of her time. After thinking for a moment, "Taking out such a large block all at once is too conspicuous, I’ll start with a small piece to see how it goes." It would be difficult for such a large chunk of gold not to draw attention. Xiaoqi sat on the tree eating fruit, "It’s all yours now, you can arrange it however you want." Xiaofeng tossed the seeds she bought during the day to Xiaoqi, "Aren’t you interested in planting vegetables? These are the seeds, now you will have something to do in the space and won’t be bored." Xiaoqi glanced at them once, "Just some radishes and cabbage, that will only make me more bored." It hated eating radishes and cabbage the most. Xiaofeng couldn’t be bothered with it and left the space with a thought. Upon opening her eyes and loosening her palm, she indeed saw a small piece of gold in her hand, probably around fifty grams. "Xiaofeng." Xiaofeng had only fallen asleep in the latter half of the night, and when she woke up again, Su Guisheng and his wife had come over early in the morning, "Are you still sleeping? Don’t you have to go to the city today?" Nonchalantly, Xiaofeng tossed the gold into the space and yawned, "What’s up?" If Ma Donghua hadn’t harbored the intention to harm her yesterday, she would have merely thought that the other party liked to take small advantages without any real malice. Some things, once they had happened, became facts. Others might have thought yesterday’s incident was an accident, but only she knew it wasn’t. If it weren’t for Xiaoqi’s warning, no one would have known what accident might have befallen her and her child. "We, your uncle and I, were also in the wrong yesterday, we shouldn’t have coveted your things, what’s yours is yours, it was our greed," Ma Donghua said with a smile, "Aren’t your uncle and I also planning to go to town today? Are you heading down later? Let’s go together." Su Guisheng chimed in too, "We also want to ride in Dr. Ye’s car to save some transportation costs." "The car belongs to Dr. Ye. Uncle and aunt want a ride, then go ask Dr. Ye. What’s the use of asking me?" Xiaofeng yawned, her tone indifferent. "Isn’t it because if you’re riding, we’d have company too." Ma Donghua, upon hearing Xiaofeng’s cool tone, really felt like giving her a slap. Listen to that attitude. It would’ve been her elder brother, but if it were her daughter, she would have taught her a good lesson. "Auntie, you should take the bus yourself. After all, you fell flat on your face yesterday, and I’m afraid the taste in your mouth might spray all over Ye Cheng’s car." What wanting to go to the city is all about, isn’t it just to see if she took anything away or where she might have placed them in the city. "Su Xiaofeng." Ma Donghua was furious after hearing Xiaofeng’s words, "Don’t think just because you have a few items in your hand we have to suck up to you." "If Auntie doesn’t want to suck up to me, what is Auntie doing right now?" Xiaofeng chuckled lightly, "I forgot to tell you, auntie, that fall you took yesterday was quite something. If I hadn’t reacted quickly, who knows what might have happened to me and the baby. Auntie, after you did that, should I still divide things with you?" Ma Donghua spat out, "If you don’t want to share, just say so. Don’t give me all that nonsense." Ma Donghua hadn’t expected Xiaofeng to guess this much, but how could she admit it. "I just want to tell you, auntie." Xiaofeng looked at her, "I originally wanted to give that teapot to you, considering we’re family. If auntie liked it, giving it to you wouldn’t be a problem. But your actions yesterday really disappointed me." Sigh. "You, you..." Ma Donghua really felt like spitting blood, "You little wretch, who cares for that teapot." Pulling on Su Guisheng, she walked outside, "Guisheng, let’s go back. Otherwise, someone’s gonna get too full of herself." Whether due to being too agitated or not, Ma Donghua tripped over the doorstep on her way out and fell again. This time she was not as lucky as yesterday. After all, Xiaofeng’s house had a newly repaired floor, a freshly laid concrete floor, exceptionally hard. Her cheeks hit the ground, and Ma Donghua’s face swelled up into a pig’s head, very noticeable. "Brother, did you see that? People should not do bad things. If they do, whatever they do in the future will not go well, even walking could end with a face like a big pig’s head." Xiaofeng, seemingly casually addressing Su Peng while looking at Ma Donghua, said although it involved a bit of Xiaoqi’s meddling. Su Peng looked at Ma Donghua’s tumble and snickered with a grin. He Ximei came back carrying a pig bucket and, seeing Ma Donghua’s face, felt a bit sorry for her, "I’m saying, Donghua, you better not go out these days. Look at you, you can even fall while walking. How unlucky can you be?" Ma Donghua didn’t respond and went straight home with Su Guisheng. "What happened to her? Did she come to ask for something again?" He Ximei asked Xiaofeng. "Anyway, she didn’t have any good intentions in her heart." A person never content with their greed will never be satisfied. "I’ll let your father and your elder brother accompany you later, to prevent any bad people from targeting you." He Ximei said her words were genuine, but those things belonged to Xiaofeng, not her. Coveting them was pointless. "Alright." Xiaofeng didn’t refuse, she indeed wanted to take care of something today, "You come down with us too." "Me...?" —— "Yuzhu." Ma Donghua and Su Guisheng really went down to the city, but they took the bus, and went straight to Luo Yuzhu, "You’re Xiaofeng’s biological mother, there’s something you must take care of." Luo Yuzhu, annoyed by the issue with Yueyue, was not in the mood to go out, nor did she want to hear the name Su Xiaofeng, "Well, I’m not her biological mother, I surely can’t manage her." She’s now too proud for anyone to manage. "You must be angry," Ma Donghua smiled slightly, addressing the matter directly, "You probably don’t know yet, but back then, Su Dada left Xiaofeng five valuable items, a gold teapot, a jade bracelet, and three extremely valuable objects. Not to mention anything else, just the gold teapot, I figure it weighs at least three pounds. I just inquired at the gold store, and the gold buyback price is 73 per gram, with one pound being 500 grams. Three pounds, how many grams is that? Do the math?" Luo Yuzhu found the idea somewhat amusing, "Donghua, don’t con me. How much is that? Over a hundred thousand? Given the Su old coot’s circumstances, they could come up with over a hundred thousand?" That’s just impossible. "If you don’t believe it, ask Guisheng if it’s true. It’s only the price of one of the items. If all five items were sold together, maybe they could fetch five or six hundred thousand." Five or six hundred thousand, what kind of concept is that? Astronomical. "If their family really had these items, they would have taken them out long ago, why wait until now?" Luo Yuzhu still had some doubts. "My elder brother must have lost his senses, right? Insisting on waiting until Xiaofeng gets married to bring them out. If Donghua hadn’t followed my elder brother yesterday and discovered his secret, who would have guessed my elder brother had so many valuable goods?" Hearing Su Guisheng’s tone, Luo Yuzhu realized this matter must be true, "Now I’m not his wife anymore, how could that help me even if you come to me? Could he still give it to me?"
