Chapter 106 The Unlucky Guy in the Historical Literature 48
"Are you sure that thing didn't belong to the original owner of this house?" It's impossible that the original owner was a kind-hearted person who gave away some antiques as extra gifts after selling the house!
"No, if it belongs to the original owner, the original owner might have forgotten it. We can dig it out first. If it belongs to the original owner and he comes looking for it, we can just return it to the original owner."
"You're right, dig it out first."
Qu Nannan called a small robot to follow her to the backyard and dug down where the elf pointed. The buried thing was quite deep, and it took four or five meters to dig out the small box.
No one knew what material the small box that was dug out was made of. It was still intact after being soaked in rain for years underground. The only difference was that its color looked a lot darker, and there was a padlock on it. This did not pose a problem for the little robot. It stretched out its hand and turned its fingers into the shape of a wire.
I reached into the keyhole and stirred it a few times before hearing a click. The lock was old, probably the copper lock used by ancient people. I opened the box and found that the things inside were wrapped in oil paper. The box was not big, but it was packed full.
Qu Nannan took out a pair of gloves and put them on, then opened the oil paper packages one by one. Inside were some jewelry, all for women. Only one package contained five gold ingots. The jewelry looked quite valuable. Ordinary people would never have these things.
And the ingots were signed at the bottom. They were not from the Whip Dynasty, but many years before that. “Could it be that this box was not buried in modern times?”
The elf scanned it and said, "It shouldn't be. This box has been buried here for at least a hundred years. It definitely can't be the original owner's property."
"Then, we have made a fortune! It really is a bonus when you buy a house!"
The things in here are definitely worth many times more than what she paid for the house. Look at her luck.
The elf wasn't very interested in these things: "Are you still planning to hand them in this time?"
Qu Nannan shook her head: "No, there aren't many things there, so I'll just keep them as a souvenir. No one has come to pick them up for so long, so they are like unclaimed things, so I don't feel guilty about keeping them."
"Look at how well they protect it. It's been around for who knows how many years, but it looks like new. Even the gold and silver are still shining and haven't oxidized at all."
"Keep this box well. It's definitely a good container for storing things."
After reading it, Qu Nannan put all the things into the warehouse of the space. She was not very interested in these things. Her only hobby was all kinds of gorgeous little dresses, which she could not wear in these small worlds. She was about to give up this only hobby.
The courtyard was cleaned up inside and out, and it didn't look like it had been abandoned for nearly ten years. Qu Nannan used all the utensils she brought from Mercury in the main room where she lived.
The two side rooms were filled with the things she had used here before. These two rooms were temporarily reserved for the Huang siblings as a temporary residence. It was estimated that after school started, the two of them would not have time to come to her place often.
"Great, Nannan, you're very proactive. Not only have you bought the house in such a short time, but you've already cleaned it up!" Huang Quan praised Qu Nannan exaggeratedly.
"That's right. How about it? My house is nice, isn't it? I spent all my savings to buy this house. It will be my only home from now on."
"That's pretty good. The house is big and nice. Aren't you afraid to live alone?"
"What are you afraid of? I lived alone before. You two can pick your own rooms. It's just right for each of you to have one."
The brother and sister carried their luggage and each chose a room and walked in: "Have you even packed up the room we're staying in?"
"That's right. We can come back here and get together during the holidays. We have plenty of rooms anyway."
After putting down their luggage, Huang Zhi asked Qu Nannan: "Are you really not planning to live on campus?"
"No, I'm really not used to so many people sleeping in one room. You know my personality, I'm really not suitable for guessing other people's thoughts all day long. That's so tiring."
"Is your place far from school?"
"It's not far. You two should have a good rest today. I will take you to see my future school tomorrow. It only takes about ten minutes to get there by bike, and at most half an hour to walk. Just consider it as exercise."
"That's OK. It's not too far. What about the neighbors on both sides?"
Qu Nannan shook her head: "I haven't seen any yet. The people living here seem to be very private. I rarely see anyone coming out to chat or anything like that. It may also be because of the weather. Let's wait until it gets warmer and see."
She is not the type of person who would take the initiative to make friends with relatives and neighbors. It is good enough that they don't bother each other. She can protect herself and does not need others to take care of her.
"How's the security here?"
"It's OK. I didn't see any scoundrels or anything like that. I went out a few times and didn't run into anyone."
"Can we buy a house and settle down directly with our household registration?"
"No, this isn't the person Uncle Huang is looking for to help. It's still a bit relaxed at this time and it's easier to handle."
"What are you two thinking? If you want to register your household registration here, hurry up now. I think it will be difficult to apply for household registration in the capital after various mechanisms are implemented."
"By the way, when I came here, the person who helped me find a house said there's another house not too far from here, but it's not very big. How about you talk to Uncle Huang about buying it?"
"This way you will have a place to register your household registration, and when Uncle Huang and Aunt Huang come to visit you in the future, or when you retire and retire here, you will have a place to stay."
After all, their small city is too small and has no development prospects, so it is better to take the opportunity to get their household registration here. There are always more opportunities in big cities than in small places, and the development will be better.
Of course, she was just giving an opinion. It was up to Uncle Huang's family to decide what to do. If Uncle Huang's family hadn't treated her the same as their own children, she wouldn't have said so much. People on Mercury only cared about minding their own business.
Huang Zhi is a girl, older and more thoughtful, and knows that Nannan is thinking about them and doing good for them: "Do you know where the house you mentioned is and how much is it?"
Qu Nannan shook her head: "I don't know. I decided to buy this house when I saw it. I didn't go to see that house. How about I call the son of Uncle Huang's comrade-in-arms and ask him to take us over to have a look."
Huang Zhi shook her head: "I'll call my parents first. I don't have the money to buy it now."
"That's nothing. I can lend you the money to buy it first, and you can pay me back slowly in the future. The house is not big and someone is living in it now. It sounds like it's quite cheap."
