Chapter 116 Moral Model
Just when Xu Youyou thought that the system was ignoring her, the system's reply appeared in front of her again.
[Guess which one is more valuable, the newspaper reward or the birdcage reward?]
Xu Youyou:!!!
Xu Youyou understood the system's hint. She thought she had only lost a few million, but she didn't expect it to be hundreds of millions. Xu Youyou covered her heart, as if she could hear the sound of someone cutting her heart with a blunt knife.
pain! It hurts so much!
"Boss, are you feeling unwell?" Xu Fang looked at Xu Youyou with a face full of gritted teeth. She was more anxious than anyone else.
Xu Youyou held her heart and said, "It's okay, I just felt a pang of conscience."
Xu Fang didn't know how to answer for a moment. She didn't know whether to smile to show that she was amused by the boss's joke, or to continue to worry about the boss's health.
Aunt Liu came back after making a phone call.
Xu Youyou asked, "Aunt Liu, what did your friend say?"
Aunt Liu frowned and said, "My friend didn't know that these newspapers were so valuable. Those old newspapers have been piled up at her place for many days, and she can't even remember where they came from."
Xu Youyou raised an eyebrow when she heard this, and asked in disbelief, "Does your friend intend to return the newspaper to its original owner?"
Aunt Liu nodded.
Xu Youyou suddenly felt that the other person's figure was so brilliant that she looked like a clown. If she had such awareness, she would probably still be living in a small emo house in the urban village.
"You must persuade her. If she thinks this way, will those businessmen stop making money? Do they have to sell things at cost price? She didn't steal the newspaper. Whoever has it in their hands owns it. Don't be confused." Xu Youyou said.
Aunt Liu said helplessly, "I tried to persuade her, but she said that if we were to calculate this way, the newspaper and the teething stick would be given to Guaiguai. No matter how valuable they were, she couldn't take them back because they belonged to Guaiguai now!"
Xu Youyou: Ah?
This person's logic is really invincible. Anyone can take the newspaper, she doesn't want it herself!
Xu Youyou has found bargains so many times and has seen all kinds of sellers, some greedy, some shrewd, but this is the first time she has seen someone who exudes moral brilliance and has such high ideological and moral qualities that it makes others ashamed.
She couldn't help but become curious about Aunt Liu's friend and really wanted to meet this admirable lady.
"What do you know, Guaiguai? You should persuade your friend that money matters cannot be calculated in this way. Taking the newspapers back and exchanging them for money can also improve his life. At least he won't have to work so hard collecting waste every day like he does now." Xu Youyou advised.
Aunt Liu shook her head. "Ms. Xu, I've tried everything I could to persuade her, but my friend is stubborn. Now that she's said that, there's no turning back. She'll definitely not accept the newspaper. She'll just be a good girl."
Xu Youyou said helplessly: "If she really doesn't want to accept it, then you can just accept it."
Aunt Liu immediately shook her head like a rattle: "The things are for the good boy. How can I, a grown-up, snatch things from a puppy? How can this be ridiculous! Miss Xu, please don't say that again!"
Xu Youyou didn't expect that everyone was rejecting something worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Something even more unexpected happened to her.
A line of words suddenly appeared in front of Xu Youyou.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the task reward. Reward: A Type A villa in Yiheyuanzhu]
Xu Youyou:!!!
System Tucao: [The dog owner is useless, but the dog is useful. ]
Xu Youyou ignored the system's sarcasm and screamed in her heart: Dogs are man’s best friends!
She repeated her previous actions, opened her phone and started searching for Yiheyuanzhu. She had no idea where the house was.
Ten seconds later, Xu Youyou:!!!
She took another look at the house that the system rewarded her, Type A.
There are only two Type A units in the entire villa area, which are considered the top units in the building. The area written on the property title is 2500 square meters, but because of the free basement, the actual usable area is more than 3600 square meters.
There's no room! Xu Youyou didn't know how many parts she would have to split herself into to fit in such a big house!
The best single-family villa in HD area! Next to the Summer Palace!
Five hundred million!
She looked at the photos of the villa on her phone and almost drooled.
Xu Youyou also didn't forget that she was able to get this villa thanks to Aunt Liu's friend, but given this person's character, she would never accept money directly.
Xu Youyou thought about how she now supported so many people and how she couldn't have missed having one or two well-paid workers around her. She suppressed her excitement and turned to ask Aunt Liu, "Aunt Liu, can you tell me more about your friend? How did you two meet? Why are one in Shanghai and the other in the capital? How many children does she have?"
Aunt Liu sighed and said, "Speaking of which, she's a native of the capital. When I was young, I was a model worker in the factory and was sent to the capital for training. That's how I met her."
"I like puppies, and so does she, but she likes both cats and dogs, and she especially loves taking care of small animals. We lived in the same dormitory during training, and the more we talked, the more we hit it off. Because we have similar interests, we have kept in touch all these years."
Xu Youyou sighed inwardly, feeling that it was fate, and said, "Perhaps when you came to the capital for training that year, it was God's will that you meet her, and that's why we have a friendship that spans decades."
Aunt Liu agreed with this: "I didn't learn anything from the training. The factory closed down within two years and I was laid off."
Although Aunt Liu is a laid-off worker, she has not lived a bad life in recent years. After all, after buying out her years of service, she did not forget to pay social security, and her family conditions are not particularly bad.
Now that she is old, she receives a salary from Xu Youyou and an additional pension from the state. Her daughter is not married yet, so the burden is light and she can feel so relaxed.
"As for children, she doesn't have any. In fact, if she had children, it wouldn't be so difficult," said Aunt Liu.
Xu Youyou felt that her words seemed to be attentive, so she took the initiative to ask, "Has your friend had a particularly hard time in recent years because he doesn't have children?"
Aunt Liu sighed heavily. "She's not doing well, but it's not entirely because she doesn't have children. At first, like me, the factory she worked for went bankrupt, but the money she got from buying out her seniority was squandered by her dead husband."
"Her husband borrowed money everywhere during those years. His death should have wiped out all his debts, but she was so strong-willed that she gritted her teeth and paid off every IOU, even if she had to eat coarse food."
"She finally paid off the debt, but now she's old and has no pension, so she can only make a living as a cleaner and collecting waste. She has no children, so she keeps a yard full of stray cats and dogs, all of whom want to eat meat and gnaw bones, so life is naturally tight."
Xu Youyou could imagine the pitiful look of the old lady guarding a room full of waste.
"Fortunately, she still has a house to live in." Xu Youyou said.
But Aunt Liu's face turned even uglier. She choked up a bit and said, "We're going to lose our house soon. We're going to be living on the streets soon."
