Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179: Confusion

Long Yu shook his head and said, "We won't go. It's too dangerous."

When the old man heard this, he became anxious. Last night, he told his family that they could get enough food for a month after this transaction. If he couldn't close this deal, his family would starve to death in a few days.

Although he was anxious, the old man was not stupid.

He knew why Yao Ran and Long Yu refused to go with him, so he said, "Young Lady, since you don't want to go to my house, why don't you choose a place, and I will ask my sons to send the antiques there." _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}

Long Yu looked around for a moment and saw an office building three hundred meters away. Soldiers were patrolling the area, so it was safe for them to do the exchange there.

"We could do it there." He said, pointing at the office building in the distance.

The old man looked at the office building and said, "Alright. Then please wait there while I transport the antiques."

Yao Ran nodded, and the old man hurried away.

Watching the old man's back disappear in the corner of the trading market building, Long Yu said, "We should be careful later."

Yao Ran nodded, and the two of them walked toward the office building.

The office building was submerged in snow, with only the top floor remaining. Long Yu and Yao Ran walked into the building through the broken windows and checked the surroundings. Seeing that no one was around, they waited for the old man in the messy lobby.

Twenty minutes later, the old man came back with three large wooden boxes. He ordered his three sons to put the big boxes on the ground and said to Yao Ran, "Young Lady, you can take a look at the antiques first."

After saying that, one of the old man's sons opened the boxes. The moment she saw the antiques inside, Yao Ran's eyes lit up.

The first box contained more than twenty pieces of calligraphy and paintings. Yao Ran opened the scrolls one by one and examined them carefully. She selected eight paintings and a piece of calligraphy from the first box and then moved to the second box.

Looking at the beautiful golden phoenix crown and jade crown, Yao Ran was curious about the old man's identity. The old man needed not only a lot of money but also connections to obtain these antiques.

The third box contained some vases, bronze vessels, and earthenware. Yao Ran took everything in the second box but only a few vases, bronze cups, and earthen bowls from the third box.

After choosing the antiques, she looked at the old man and said, "Old Grandpa, I only want these. How much food do you want to exchange with these antiques?"

The old man looked at what she had chosen and sighed inwardly.

He originally thought that Yao Ran would take everything, so he mixed in some antiques that were only about a hundred years old, hoping that he could get more food and medicine.
