Courtyard Houses: Starting as a Purchasing Agent

Let me show this to everyone, and then I'll see how Liu Aiguo can face me.

After suppressing our family for so many years, we can finally vent our anger.

Yu Haitang took the box in her hand: It was surprisingly heavy?

what?

Could it be money?

Yu Haitang suddenly felt a little uneasy.

However, since she was already there, and considering the invisible pressure Liu Aiguo had placed on her and her husband, Yu Haitang still opened the box.

Snapped!

All eyes turned to them.

The box is red, and the outside is a packaging box.

After opening it, there was another small packaging box inside.

It opened again.

Inside was a glass box.

However, the contents inside have already been revealed to everyone.

This is……

sizzle...

Upon seeing the item, Yu Haitang's hand trembled, and the item nearly fell.

"Be careful!" Li Chunlan said.

"What...what is this?" Yu Haitang had never seen this before, but she had some guesses in her mind. She looked at Yu Li.

“Yes!” Li Chunlan said, “Lily, what did you buy?”

Yu Li smiled slightly: "Ginseng... Mom, this is good. You should keep it. You can take it out and eat it when you feel weak. It can replenish your vital energy and is very good for your health!"

"What... ginseng?"

Li Chunlan's mouth dropped open in shock.

She had never seen ginseng in her life, but who hadn't heard of ginseng?

This legendary creature, capable of becoming a spirit, holds a god-like status in the hearts of ordinary people.

Yu Haitang was stunned: My God... it's actually ginseng?

I heard ginseng isn't cheap!

"This……"

Yu Haitang felt a little numb: she had given him two hundred yuan, and her sister had given her a ginseng root. Although she didn't know how much it cost, at least it sounded better than money.

This thing has a special meaning, especially for the elderly.

"This must cost a lot of money, right?" Li Chunlan asked Yu Li.

Just as Xiaolong was about to speak, Liu Aiguo slapped him on the head: "Little brat, don't talk nonsense!"

"Oh my... Mom..." Yu Li said, "Don't worry about the money, this is for you, for your emergency use, so don't worry about it!"

"No!" Li Chunlan said, "Your family isn't doing well either... Don't spend so much money, Lili, listen to me, take it out and return it. Mom is perfectly healthy, she doesn't need these things!"

"Mom!" Yu Li said, "This isn't worth much...it's nothing precious. Don't think of ginseng as something so high-end. This is just a small piece, it's worthless..."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Liu Aiguo said, "It's just something worth about a hundred yuan!"

call……

Upon hearing this, both Yu Haitang and Li Chunlan breathed a sigh of relief.

A hundred or so yuan, that's alright.

Yu Haitang breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, I thought it would cost a lot of money."

Seeing that her sister's gift wasn't as valuable as her own, she was naturally pleased and sat down.

As for Xiaolong, he looked indignant.

"Is Lao Yu... is Lao Yu here?"

Just then, an old man with white hair walked in from outside. He was wearing a vest and holding a newspaper in his hand.

"Oh...we have guests!"

The old man was taken aback.

Yu Shoucheng said, "Uncle Wu is here! Come and have some food with us!"

"No, no... I came to ask you something. I didn't expect your family to eat so early... You guys eat first, I'll come back later!"

Grandpa Wu was preparing to leave.

suddenly……

His eyes flickered, his sharp gaze landing on the ginseng that Liu Aiguo and Yu Li had brought.

After Yu Haitang opened it, she placed it on the dining table and did not put it away.

Grandpa Wu was stunned for a moment, then said, "Old Yu... this is ginseng... such good ginseng... where did you get it?"

This sentence once again sent a chill down everyone's spine.

Yu Shoucheng said, "Come, come... Uncle Wu, come and take a look at my ginseng, how is it?"

"My child bought it for me, saying it wasn't worth much... I always feel like my child is lying to me!"

Mr. Wu used to be a long-time employee of the No. 1 Pharmaceutical Factory, working in the traditional Chinese medicine department. He has a deep understanding of traditional Chinese medicine.

He strode forward, took a closer look at the ginseng, and then gasped several times, saying, "Eighty years... Old Yu, this ginseng is less than a hundred years old, but it's not much different from a hundred-year-old ginseng!"

"Tsk tsk tsk... How precious!"

This revelation shocked everyone once again...

Li Chunlan said, "The child is talking nonsense, saying it's only a hundred yuan... Could you take a look and tell me how much this thing is worth?"

Yu Haitang and Wang Yongjun exchanged a glance, both having a bad feeling.

"Hehehe..." Grandpa Wu said, "That must be a lie... I haven't been in contact with ginseng for a long time, but twenty years ago, a ginseng like this would cost at least six thousand yuan... Now... you can't get one for less than thirty thousand!"

"Hiss, hiss..."

"Hiss..."

puff……

Everyone gasped in shock, but Yu Haitang, who was drinking water, spat it out.

What the hell?

Thirty thousand?

Wang Yongjun was also stunned.

Li Chunlan was speechless.

Only Liu Aiguo and Yu Li managed a wry smile.

Yu Li said, "Uncle Wu, you really know your stuff..."

"Huh?" Grandpa Wu said, "Lily, did you buy this for your mother?"

"Yes!" Yu Li said, "It's about the same price as you mentioned, a little over thirty thousand!"

"Amazing!" Grandpa Wu gave a thumbs up and said, "Lily's got money... Chunlan, this is a good thing, keep it. To put it bluntly, if you two have any emergencies in the future, it could save your lives in a critical moment..."

The family members had complicated expressions.

1.5 Yu Li and Liu Aiguo originally didn't want to show off.

but……

That was a real slap in the face.

Yu Haitang's face swelled up from all the slaps.

My brother-in-law has no money?

Is my brother-in-law's family in financial difficulty?

What the hell...

How could someone with such a difficult situation spend over 30,000 yuan to buy ginseng as a gift?

Thirty thousand!

We can't earn that much money in a year.
