Chapter 722: Chapter 576: Up to You (Extra for Silver Alliance Leader Arain) (Fourth Update)
Just then, Mina’s petite body walked over, hugging an exceedingly thick blanket, and she asked with curiosity.
"Big Brother Su Mo, what are you and Sister Rose talking about?"
"It’s like this, Su Mo feels that the items your family has collected are quite nice."
Rose spoke on behalf of Su Mo directly.
"Of course, these are all treasures meticulously selected by my grandfather, they are also collectibles!"
Mina said proudly.
Su Mo coughed and spoke, "That’s right, I think some of them are pretty nice, I was wondering if you could bear to part with them and sell them to me."
Upon hearing Su Mo’s words, Mina showed a troubled expression.
She started to explain, "Well, I can’t decide on that, I need to ask my grandfather; all these are his beloved collections."
"Then, I’ll trouble you to ask him for me."
Su Mo said somewhat guiltily, always feeling like he was somewhat evil, like a bad uncle tempting an innocent young girl.
"Which ones are you interested in, I’ll go talk to grandpa about it."
Mina seemed to make up her mind and replied.
Su Mo, with a thick face, pointed at the items wanted by the Fake Owner · Swallower and said, "Since they are your grandfather’s prized possessions, it’s not right to ask for a lot, just this pile will do."
"Okay then."
Mina nodded and spoke.
It was at this moment that a weak and tired voice rang out.
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Su Mo, but let’s forget about it."
Su Mo and the others turned their heads to look, and Mina’s grandfather, who was supposedly resting, had somehow come out.
He must have heard a part of their conversation.
"I really do like these items very much, could you bear to part with them?"
Su Mo’s heart sank; sure enough, things weren’t going to be that easy. He also wondered if Mina’s grandfather could see the value of the item.
If that were the case, it would be a big problem.
But then Su Mo also felt it unlikely. If he had such keen eyesight, his home would not be so poor.
Would they need Mina to participate in fights to support the family?
And the analysis by the Fake Owner · Devourer was very on point; a normal person couldn’t see its value.
After hearing Su Mo’s words, Mina’s grandfather didn’t reply, but became even more silent.
"Grandfather, Big Brother Su Mo is a very nice person. He even saved me, why not just sell it to him?"
Mina stepped forward and urged when she saw this.
Mina’s grandfather sighed and said, "Do as you wish."
The truth was that Mina’s grandfather wasn’t unwilling to sell, but rather, he was reluctant to sell to a friend of Mina’s.
Most of these items were collected together with his wife who had not long passed away. They weren’t of much value; they were simply to deceive Mina.
To tell her that there are valuable things at home and that she doesn’t have to work so hard outside.
Who would be interested in these things for no reason? Clearly, they wanted to help Mina under this pretext.
Only Mina, this naïve girl, couldn’t see through it with her innocent and cheerful nature.
However, it was precisely because of this that Mina’s grandfather didn’t want to sell. After all, it was not easy for his granddaughter to be able to make such nice friends.
After hearing the confirmation, Mina looked towards Su Mo, extremely happy.
"Big Brother Su Mo, grandfather agreed."
"Thank you so much."
Su Mo then took out all his Star Coins from his pocket and poured them into Mina’s hand, saying with great guilt.
"Is this enough?"
Mina looked at the Star Coins in her hand, her eyes wide open, at a loss for words.
"If it’s not enough, maybe, Rose, you could lend me some money."
Mr. Su Mo turned his head toward Rose and said.
With a wry smile, Rose coughed and reminded, "Mr. Su Mo, that’s almost enough, don’t scare them."
At this moment, Mina came back to her senses, frantically exclaimed, "That’s way too much, so much money."
The pile of Star Coins that Su Mo had grabbed was easily twenty or thirty. The majority were of a hundred denominations, amounting to at least a thousand Star Coins. What a concept that was.
She had never seen so much money before.
"It’s not a lot, take it."
Mr. Su Mo was very insistent that Mina accept it, this amount of money was nothing to him. If it wasn’t for the fear of unforeseen complications, he would have liked to give her even more.
Moreover, Mr. Su Mo had come to realize something, that if this thing was so valuable, leaving it here, it might bring disaster instead of good luck to Mina if someone discovered it someday.
As the saying goes, "A man is not guilty for carrying jade, but he invites trouble when others know about it."
This matter could be considered to have reached a satisfactory resolution; if there was a chance in the future, he would compensate her privately.
Mina, not knowing what to do, looked at her grandfather, who could only give a bitter smile in response. He too hadn’t expected Mina’s friend to be so generous, it was just too much, and he didn’t know what to say.
At this point, Rose stepped forward, took Mina’s hand, and spoke softly, "Accept it, these things are actually worth that much."
"Really? Grandpa?"
Mina asked incredulously.
"I suppose so, thank you."
Mina’s grandfather said gratefully.
"No need to thank us, it’s quite late. Get some rest, we still have to go shopping tomorrow."
Mr. Su Mo chuckled.
"Alright, then you all get some rest."
Mina’s grandfather nodded in response.
...
The next morning, Mr. Su Mo got up, yawning heavily. He hadn’t slept well last night, not because he wasn’t used to sleeping on the floor.
It was because last night, Mr. Su Mo negotiated with the Fake Owner, the Swallower, in his mind for half the night.
The creature was impatient to take advantage of Rose’s sleep, wanting to come out and forcibly absorb the Energy Crystal.
It took a lot of talking to calm the creature down, as acting rashly was too risky. Any movement would surely be noticed given Rose’s vigilance.
"Mr. Su Mo, you don’t seem to be in a good state, are you not used to sleeping?"
At this moment, Rose also got up and asked with a smile.
"Not at all."
Mr. Su Mo stretched lazily.
That’s when Mina came over, full of energy, and shouted, "Mr. Su Mo, Sister Rose, you’re awake. Breakfast is ready, you can eat after washing up. After we eat, I’ll take you around Green Gore City. I’m very familiar with the whole city."
"Okay."
Rose nodded in response.
Soon after, Mr. Su Mo and Rose freshened up and followed Mina to the dining area.
On the wooden table, there was a lavish breakfast spread with a variety of fruits and potatoes.
The group of children looked at the table happily, as they usually couldn’t have such a feast. Typically, only during festivals could they indulge like this.
To her siblings, Mina said, "The reason why breakfast is so lavish today is to thank Mr. Su Mo and Sister Rose. Their generous help has allowed us to live without worries about food and clothing, let’s all thank Mr. Su Mo and Sister Rose together."
"Thank you, Mr. Su Mo."
"Thank you, Sister Rose."
...
The children present shouted out loud one after another.
"No need to thank me."
Mr. Su Mo, feeling rather uncomfortable, quickly waved his hands.
