Chapter 281 - 0281 Feihong the Person1_1
Upon hearing this, Shen Feihong couldn’t help but scratch his head.
"Sis, to be honest, the origin of this thing is off; initially, it was kind of a finders keepers situation. I traded the bracelet I had for ten pounds of white flour with you yesterday. As for whether my brother has sold his bracelet in the past two days, I can’t be sure."
Feng Qingxue assumed he was referring to looting during the chaos of war, so she seriously said, "Could you please ask your brother for me? If the bracelet is still available, ask him how much food he would trade it for. If it’s not available, then I guess it just wasn’t meant to be."
If it wasn’t meant to be, then there’s really nothing she could do.
"Alright, I’ll ask him for you." Shen Feihong didn’t refuse, "But you should be prepared."
"Prepared for what?"
Shen Feihong laughed, "The bank’s price for gold is five dollars a gram. That bracelet isn’t light. Even if the gemstones aren’t worth much, the gold itself could sell for over a hundred bucks. The government is particularly keen on buying gold. Lass, I traded my bracelet for your flour because it was so hard to come by and I was in urgent need, otherwise I wouldn’t have let it go so cheaply."
"Money isn’t an issue." If money could solve the problem, then it wasn’t a big deal.
Moreover, apart from the money that Lu Jiang had sent to his father before they met, all the wages he sent back from the battlefield were in her possession. Before going to war, Lu Jiang sent five thousand at once. She had the money that Lu Jiang gave her before, and the money she earned from selling grain. The family didn’t spend a lot, so adding all the money together, she should have somewhere around eight or nine thousand if not ten.
Upon hearing this, Shen Feihong nodded, "Makes sense. You guys don’t seem to be lacking money or food. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been so willing to make the deal. I’ll ask my brother whether he wants money or grain. If he wants money, you give money. If he wants grain, you give grain."
