The little dumpling is five and a half years old, which made his father so angry that his head split

Li Tian held the stamps as if they were gold ingots and went back to her room.

Completely ignoring the strange looks from everyone in the room.

Until you buy a professional stamp album, it's safer to just put it in a book first.

After carefully putting away the gold monkeys, Li Tian left the room, satisfied.

Unexpectedly, no one in the room moved an inch.

They were all craning their necks, waiting for Li Tian to come back and give them an explanation.

Li Tian glanced at everyone guiltily.

Should we tell the truth?

Before she could make up her mind, Li Shengli spoke up.

"to be honest."

Li Tian smiled sheepishly.

"I like stamps, and I like the little monkey on this stamp."

Li Yuanchao believed that Li Tian truly liked him.

But that's certainly not the whole truth.

"I'll give you another chance."

"dad!"

Li Tian walked over and hugged Li Yuanchao's neck affectionately.

"Come on, weren't you not going to talk to me today?"

How petty!

"Dad, how can you argue with a child! I've forgotten all the angry things I said."

Li Yuanchao suppressed a laugh and pulled his little girl out of his arms.

"Your behavior just now was very unusual. Give everyone an explanation."

Li Tian blinked her innocent, clear eyes, which were still watery from crying.

"Is it strange?"

Everyone nodded in unison.

Ok.

Li Tian didn't want to recall her utterly shameful actions.

We'll need their help collecting stamps in the future.

Now we must silence the gossips and, incidentally, persuade them.

"I want to collect stamps in the future, and I want to collect all kinds of beautiful stamps."

"Stamp collecting can not only increase your knowledge, but some stamps can also appreciate in value."

"I really like this monkey stamp, and I want to collect many more."

"Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Aunt, Uncle, please help me, dear relatives."

After Li Tian finished speaking, she bowed very formally to everyone.

The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

"I can't just give it to you for free, can I?"

Asking a question means you have an interest.

Li Tian smiled and walked to Li Siwen's side, taking her hand.

"I'll buy them with my own money, one cent each, how about that?"

"Dear aunt, could you help me collect some from your classmates as well?"

"Two cents a piece, I can't work for free."

Li Tian pretended to be angry and slapped Li Siwen.

But he quickly gritted his teeth and said the word "deal".

"Did I ask for too little?"

Li Tian glanced at Li Siwen.

"That's a lot, that's a lot! Auntie, I'm still a child, you have to support your niece's hobbies."

Li Tian didn't give Li Siwen a chance to back out and immediately went to Li Yuanxiang's side.

College students are the group that loves writing letters the most.

"Uncle, could you collect these for me at your school? I'll give you two cents a piece."

If things go smoothly, you can even receive a penny.

But......

Li Yuanxiang was too embarrassed to ask Li Tian if she had any money.

But he was afraid that if he collected too much, he wouldn't be able to cover the costs.

"Don't worry, Uncle, I have money. My dad gives me pocket money every month, and I never spend it recklessly; I save it all."

"Yuanxiang, don't worry about taking her money. She gets ten dollars a month, and she's already squeezed a lot out of other people today."

Li Tian pouted.

"Auntie, I got that money back myself. That's what you call skill."

Li Siwen snorted coldly.

She really couldn't bring herself to do it.

"Tian Tian, ​​just give me one cent. They won't lose out; they'll even make two cents. As long as they have it, they can buy it."

Li Tian waved his hand with great poise.

"I've wasted your time, so I have to pay you. Besides, we're all family, so we should treat everyone equally."

"However, try to be discreet when you buy them, so that others won't follow suit and drive up the prices."

"Before you accept the stamps, you must make sure they are brand new and without any damage."

"Once it's been used, no matter how well it's stored, it's no longer good."

Li Yuanxiang smiled.

This little niece is really cunning, but thankfully she's not bad.

Let alone children from the countryside, even he himself might not be able to come up with so many excuses.

Li Siwen gently touched Li Tian's little tuft of hair.

"You're so cunning, give me a quick way to collect stamps!"

"Just put up a sign in front of your dorm building, stating what you're buying and at what price. Anyone willing to sell will naturally come to you. It's that simple."

That's really simple, Li Siwen nodded.

"You really are cunning and calculating!"

"Dear Auntie, do you know anyone at the post office?"

"It would be much easier if we could buy it from the post office."

"Moreover, I will spend all my allowance on this from now on."

Li Siwen thought about it.

"It seems that a high school classmate of mine took over her mother's job at the post office."

You can buy it even if you don't know anyone there.

But it's easier to get things done if you know someone.

"Let's go tomorrow. I still need to buy the newly released chicken tickets."

Li Siwen poked Li Tian scrutinizingly.

"How do you know everything? I haven't even seen the new stamps yet."

Li Tian smiled sweetly.

"Isn't the Year of the Rooster right after the Year of the Monkey? I can recite all twelve zodiac animals."

Li Siwen crossed her arms.

"On another note, I could collect it for myself, so why should I collect it for you?"

Oops!

The paper dolls have awakened?

Li Tian tugged at Li Siwen's arm.

"My aunt is the best, how could she take this little one from me?"

Li Siwen pinched Li Tian's little face.

She was just teasing Li Tian.

In her mind, how much could a general-purpose stamp appreciate in value?

Even if the price increases tenfold or a hundredfold, how much money will it make?

Li Shengli squinted his small eyes, watching his granddaughter's every move.

If you can spare two cents, you can definitely earn at least two dollars.

I don't know where this child gets so many ideas from.

"Do you want me to lend a hand?"

Li Tian shook her head at Li Shengli.

Grandpa's intervention caused quite a stir.

Moreover, things are valued for their rarity; if too many exist, they become worthless.

We can just collect a few small amounts from the school.

It would be even better if you could buy a whole sheet from the post office.

"Where is my letter?"

letter?

Li Tian remembered the letter she had just taken and jogged back into the house.

Li Shengli took several letters to the study.

After reading his letter, Li Yuanchao had Li Zilong lead him into the study.

I need to discuss something important with Li Shengli.

"You've come at the right time. Chen Hao has decided to leave the military. Find me a bodyguard with good character."

"Hao-ge is finally willing to take off this military uniform?"

"As you get older, you naturally become more realistic in your considerations, and for the sake of your family, that's how it should be."

Chen Hao must have made this decision after careful consideration.

Li Yuanchao didn't say anything else.

"Dad, this is why I'm here to talk to you."

"The soldier I contacted replied to me; he is willing to go to Beijing."

"Chu Xun is an orphan. He only recently heard that he has a relative in the capital, which is why he agreed to become a bodyguard."

Li Shengli looked at his son.

"If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them."

"You can trust this person. I have no other opinions. Give me the information, and I'll arrange for someone to handle the formalities."
