Chapter 253 20 Euros
Lu Jingyao rarely refuses Xu Youyou, and this time is no exception.
Moreover, he accompanied Xu Youyou to Finland just to let Xu Youyou have fun.
Xu Youyou, on the other hand, still felt a little guilty about her temporary change of schedule. After all, it was not a personal act, but a whole-body move, and a large number of people behind her had to change their schedule.
Lu Jingyao couldn't possibly have no idea about Xu Youyou's many temporary changes to his itinerary, but he just never raised it.
"Do you think I'm weird?" Xu Youyou asked.
Lu Jingyao smiled and said: "You must have your reasons for doing things."
Xu Youyou glanced at the system panel in mid-air, unable to explain the existence of the system to Lu Jingyao.
"I...I do have my own reasons...but if I can't explain it to you for the rest of my life...will you blame me..." Xu Youyou asked.
Lu Jingyao looked at her seriously: "Everyone has their own secrets. If your secret is your foundation, not only can you not tell it to me, but you will not be able to tell it to your children in the future. Since it is a secret, you should not tell anyone People.”
Xu Youyou was heartbroken because she felt that she might never be able to be honest with her lover because of what she had concealed.
Now Lu Jingyao's words seemed to lift all the burdens off her mind.
"Aren't you curious?" Xu Youyou couldn't help but ask.
Lu Jingyao said: "Of course I am curious, but I don't want to embarrass you."
Xu Youyou smiled awkwardly. Although Lu Jingyao's words were quite touching, the existence of the system was her foundation, and she was determined to bring this secret into the coffin.
"Now that you've made your decision, don't continue to struggle." Lu Jingyao said softly.
Xu Youyou nodded vigorously. After she left her residence, she strode ahead, following the golden pointer of the system, walking through this small Nordic town.
After walking in the snow for half an hour, Xu Youyou stopped.
In front of her was a grocery store.
It looked like it was only about thirty or forty square meters. There was an old man sitting behind the counter in the grocery store, with a dull face and his eyes fixed on a book.
Hearing the sound of someone coming in, the old man raised his eyes from the book and saw a bunch of Chinese faces. The old man said tentatively: "You howl."
The old man's Mandarin had a strange intonation, but everyone present understood it.
Xu Youyou felt the kindness in the other party, nodded, and replied in a tactful manner: "Hello."
The old man listened to this sound and learned it again. However, due to long-term habits, even if he studied seriously, the sound he made was still "you howl".
Xu Youyou asked: "Can you speak Mandarin?"
When the old man heard this, he was confused for a moment, and then replied in Finnish: "I am trying to learn Chinese by myself, but it seems that the effect is not obvious. Your language is too complicated."
The accompanying Finnish translator immediately translated the other party's words to Xu Youyou and others.
Xu Youyou didn't expect that the old man in front of him, who looked to be in his sixties, actually had a heart for endless learning. Xu Youyou couldn't help but feel a touch of respect in his heart.
"Thank you for your recognition of Chinese, and I wish you success in your studies." Xu Youyou said with a smile.
The old Finnish man also laughed and said: "You Chinese people are always very friendly. Although I learn your language very slowly, I think it is very beautiful."
In a cold foreign country, Xu Youyou felt warm after receiving kindness from others. The old Finnish man asked: "There are many kinds of things in my store. Customers from China, you will definitely find the products you are satisfied with here."
Xu Youyou's eyes followed the system's instructions and landed on the shelves behind the old man.
The items in the old man's grocery store are indeed very miscellaneous. You can find ski supplies, fishing supplies, books, pots and pans here, and it is a veritable grocery store.
"Can I see this plate?" Xu Youyou asked softly.
After listening to the interpreter's explanation, the old man turned around happily and took down a plate from the shelf behind him.
This plate has a beautiful tin-red color throughout. It has obviously been well collected and is still in perfect condition.
"This thing originally belongs to your country." The old man said proactively.
Xu Youyou glanced at the other party in surprise.
The old man smiled and said: "This thing was sold to me by a Frenchman, saying it was passed down from his ancestors, but he thought it was not good."
"Why would he think so?" Xu Youyou didn't understand.
After all, in her eyes, this thing has a warm temperament, like the warm sun in winter, which makes people feel close to it, without feeling any bad luck at all.
Please...you...collect 6...9...books...!
The feeling that this lacquer plate gave Xu Youyou was completely opposite to the painting on the ceiling of the castle, so she instinctively felt that it was a treasure belonging to her relatives.
The old man said: "The Frenchman only said that since he got this treasure, his family has been in trouble. It was originally a big family with more than twenty people, but when this thing was passed to him, he was the only one left. ”
Xu Youyou was very surprised: "They were all harmed by this thing?"
The old man said: "Who knows whether what he said is true or false? After all, he is not a good person. He fled to us after killing people in his country. At first, he wanted to rob me."
When Xu Youyou heard this, she once again stood in awe of the ordinary-looking Finnish old man in front of her.
Being able to escape from the robber's hands and taking the other person's things by the way, the old man in front of him does not look like a simple character.
The old man said: "Little girl, I didn't snatch this thing. It was a fair deal with him. In order to get this thing, I paid him two pieces of bread."
Although Xu Youyou didn't know the specific value of this plate, a treasure valued by the system would probably cost at least several million.
"I want to buy this treasure, please give me a price." Xu Youyou said.
The old man stretched out his hand and made a two-character sign.
"Two hundred thousand euros?" Xu Youyou had a good impression of the old man, so she gave him a fairly honest price.
But the old man shook his head and said: "I only want 20 euros, and I will treat it as if you treat me to a meal."
Xu Youyou didn't understand.
The old man explained patiently: "The Frenchman was not lucky to get this treasure. After I got this treasure, it went very smoothly in the past few years. Originally, I was heavily in debt, and I took the gun that day with the intention of committing suicide."
"The blind Frenchmen came to rob me. They couldn't beat me, so they had to buy their lives with a plate. After I got the plate, I suddenly didn't want to die. After half a month, I won the big prize and paid off my debt. ”
"Later I met my wife, gave birth to two children, sent them to college, and watched them get married and have children."
"I know that this is your Chinese treasure. As a foreigner, I am destined not to keep it. I have opened this grocery store for many years. This treasure has always been placed behind me, but you are the only one who noticed it, so I can't keep it." It’s up to you to take it away.”
