"...Alright, I got it." After hanging up the phone, Qin Xu opened the ssage on his phone, and a photo imdiately appeared before his eyes. Curiously, Zhouzhou leaned over to take a look. The man in the photo looked ordinary, with a plain and honest appearance, but there was a cold and nacing aura between his eyebrows, as if his hands were stained with blood!
Zhouzhou was startled and her little heart skipped a beat. She instinctively asked, "Second Elder Uncle, who is this?"
"Oh, well," Qin Xu casually replied, "This is a suspect in a human trafficking case. We are offering a reward of three hundred thousand for capturing him."
Three hundred thousand!
Zhouzhou's round eyes lit up. "That's a lot of money!"
Seeing her eyes filled with little golden coins, Qin Xu couldn't help but be amused. He sighed and said, "It also proves how difficult it is to capture him."
Otherwise, they wouldn't be offering a reward.
Just as Zhouzhou was about to say sothing, Grandma Qin ca over and took her away. "Let's go, it's ti to sleep. Your brothers have a day off tomorrow, so let them take you out to play."
"Okay, okay!" Zhouzhou happily agreed. Her attention was instantly diverted, and she forgot about what just happened. She had originally planned to go out with her brothers, but plans changed.
The next day, Qin Ren had a last-minute experint at school, Qin Feng had to practice walking, and the rest of the brothers were caught by their own parents for supplentary classes or extracurricular activities. Only Qin Er, the stingy one, was unwilling to pay for extra classes.
He asked all the questions he didn't know when he was at school and relied on his brothers to teach him their special skills when they returned.
Now there was only one brother left at ho who could take care of her.
The two of them looked at each other. Qin Er looked at the little one and was sowhat unwilling. "Grandma, I still have to go sell things."
He noticed a girl in his class wearing a small crocheted hairpin made of just a few strands of yarn, but it cost more than ten yuan. He bought so materials himself and planned to make them and sell them.
Who had ti to take care of a little kid?
Grandma Qin didn't argue with him and simply said, "Take her out for a day, and I'll give you two hundred."
Qin Er imdiately changed his tune. "Deal!"
Grandma Qin snorted, feeling like she couldn't control him anymore.
Seeing the two of them about to leave hand in hand, Grandma Qin hurriedly reminded, "Qin Er, rember to buy Zhouzhou a bottle of water every hour and let her drink more."
Upon hearing this, Qin Er paused, turned back, and took a large water bottle, filling it up with a full bottle. "Is this enough?"
Grandma Qin twitched her mouth and gave him a disdainful look. "It's enough, you stingy."
"If Zhouzhou is hungry, take her to eat sothing. Don't be stingy. I'll reimburse you when you co back."
If it weren't for the fact that the other brats ignored Zhouzhou, she would have wanted the younger generation to bond together. Otherwise, she really wouldn't want her precious granddaughter to be with them. Who cared about them?
Hearing her ntion reimbursent, Qin Er's face finally relaxed, earning him another teasing scolding from Grandma Qin.
Zhouzhou looked at him curiously, observing his eyes shining brightly. Second Elder Brother was really good at managing his life!
The Qin siblings were all capable of taking care of themselves, so the driver dropped them off at the subway station entrance and left.
Children below 1.2 ters tall didn't need to pay the fare. Qin Er looked at Zhouzhou and nodded in satisfaction.
"Let's go, Short Winter lon. Stay close to and don't run around."
"Okay, okay!" Zhouzhou was taking the subway for the first ti and curiously looked around. Upon hearing his words, she quickly grabbed his hand. She noticed that he only paid for one ticket earlier and curiously asked, "Second Elder Brother, don't I need to pay?"
"No, you're short."
Oh, I see.
"That's nice. I wish I could stay this height forever, then I could ride for free all the ti!"
"It's better not to." Qin Er pondered for a mont and shook his head. "Not growing tall is a kind of illness, and it would cost more money to treat you."
Alright then.
Zhouzhou nodded and asked excitedly, blinking her eyes, "But before I grow taller, can we ride this train more often?" It would be a waste not to ride it for free.
"That's possible."
As they spoke, the train arrived, and Zhouzhou quickly followed Qin Er inside.
It was the weekend, and the train was crowded. By the ti they entered, there were no empty seats left. Qin Er pulled her and stood by the handrail, cautioning, "Hold on tight and don't fall."
"Mhmm." Zhouzhou nodded repeatedly. She had wanted to see what it looked like inside, but being too short, all she could see were pairs of legs, so she gave up.
After over an hour of riding the train, with a transfer in between, they finally arrived at a shopping mall. People were coming and going, and the crowd was large. Qin Er looked satisfied and said, "This place is the most popular."
The more people there were, the better for selling things.
Zhouzhou followed him inside, not fully understanding but tagging along. Qin Er went to the amusent area of the mall and spread out the cloth in a quiet spot where everyone could see. Then he took out the things from his bundle and displayed them. Casting a glance at Zhouzhou, he said, "If you have anything you want to sell, you can put it here too. I won't charge you a stall fee."
Sell things? Zhouzhou touched her chin and her eyes brightened. Joyfully, she took out a few sheets of talisman paper from her bag and placed them on the cloth. She exclaid, "Thank you, Second Elder Brother!"
"No..." You're welco.
Before Qin Er could finish his sentence, he saw what she had taken out. His face slightly changed, and he gave her a strange look. "What is this?"
"These are Peace Talismans, Protective Talismans, and Wealth-Attracting Talismans. I didn't bring many this ti, but I'll bring more next ti."
As she spoke, Zhouzhou took out another Wealth-Attracting Talisman and put it in her own bag. She wanted to keep that one for herself. As long as she didn't give up, she believed she would eventually have a chance to get rich.
Still taking them out? Qin Er frowned, his gaze complex as he looked at her. He didn't expect his little cousin, at such a young age, to be a little charlatan. She was such a well-behaved child, so why was she interested in this?
"Who would buy these?" he muttered, shaking his head.
But just as the words fell, they heard an excited voice, "Little Heaven Master!"
Zhouzhou also looked up and recognized the person. "It's you."
"Yeah!" Sun Xin looked at her with excitent. "Why is the Little Heaven Master here?"
"I'm here to sell things." Zhouzhou pointed to the items on the ground.
Sun Xin lowered his head and saw a few sheets of talisman paper there. His eyes lit up, and he asked, "Did the Little Heaven Master draw these?"
"Yeah."
"Can I buy a few?" Sun Xin couldn't contain his joy. After finding out about her ability yesterday, he imdiately frad the painting she made and had a great night's sleep. He believed it was all thanks to that painting.
Saying that, he took out a card. "There's 10,000 yuan in here. I wonder if I can buy one with this?"
As he said this, he felt a bit embarrassed. After all, he knew that the talismans from a master were sold at high prices, ranging from tens of thousands to millions. But his own funds were limited, so he could only take out this much.
10,000? Zhouzhou's small mouth opened slightly, and she was about to speak, but Qin Er suddenly covered her mouth and nodded. "Sure, one talisman for 10,000 yuan. If you buy ten, I'll give you one more."
Saying that, he pointed to one of the talismans and said, "These are all Wealth-Attracting Talismans."
Hearing this, Sun Xin's eyes brightened. "Deal! I'll take them all!"
"Okay." Qin Er efficiently packed up several talismans and handed them to him. Then he took out Zhouzhou's card from her bag and had the money transferred into it. His movents were swift, not giving him ti to regret or react.
There aren't many fools around these days.
Even after sending Sun Xin away, Zhouzhou was still a bit dazed. She blinked her eyes blankly and scratched her head. "Second Elder Brother, I only sell one talisman for two yuan."
It was Senior Martial Uncle Mingtong who set that price.
She could be bought for 10,000 yuan.
Qin Er earnestly reasoned, "This isn't an ordinary business. It's about fate. The value of this bond depends on how much the other party thinks it's worth. Setting a specific price would seem less devout, don't you think?"
Besides, no one would pay just two yuan for it, no matter who bought it.
His words seed to make sense.
Master also said that the purpose of receiving money was only to dissolve this bond, so there was no need to specify a price.
Thinking about it, Zhouzhou stopped dwelling on what happened earlier and gave him a thumbs up. "Second Elder Brother is right!"
She touched the wooden pixiu hanging at her waist. She really wanted to have money and didn't know when she could exchange it for a golden pixiu.
After thinking about it, she raised her head and casually scanned the area, then suddenly froze.
"Second Elder Brother, look! 300,000 yuan!"
