Chapter 51: Return Journey (1)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chen Ping was still worried about Elder Liu saying that he wanted to go back with them. He thought that if Elder Liu wanted to go back with them, he would also take the bus with them. And his mind was still on the huge sum of 500,000 yuan.
That’s right. Anyone who was previously a person who couldn’t even afford to pay for their child’s tuition would have the same reaction if someone told him that he had 500,000 yuan now. Chen Ping’s reaction was normal, but Chen Meng’er’s reaction was rather abnormal.
Chen Meng’er was only three years old, but she looked like an old woman. From the beginning, he had been observing Chen Meng’er, whether intentionally or unintentionally. He felt strange. How could Chen Ping, a farmer, raise such a child?
Chen Meng’er knew that Xiao Liu had been observing her, and she allowed him to observe her. In any case, she was sure that even if Xiao Liu had sharp eyes, he wouldn’t be able to tell that she was reborn.
After Elder Liu called the bank, the efficiency of the bank suddenly increased by an unknown number of times. Within half an hour after Elder Liu called… they obtained the money.
This made Chen Meng’er even more certain that Elder Liu’s identity was not ordinary.
Chen Ping watched as someone carried a sack in. “Elder Liu, this is 500,000 yuan.” The man with a fierce face said respectfully to Elder Liu.
“Okay, got it. Sorry to trouble you.” Elder Liu nodded to the man and then turned to Chen Ping. Chen Meng’er and her father said, “This is 500,000 yuan. You can count it.”
“Dad, go count it.” Chen Meng’er had no intention of counting money.
Chen Ping had not taken his eyes off the sack when the man with a fierce face walked in carrying the sack. Now, he heard his daughter ask him to go up and count it. He had no intention of retreating. He walked up and opened the sack’s mouth.
Chen Ping opened the sack’s mouth and looked inside. He was stunned by what he saw. There were stacks of 10-yuan notes. Although there were already 50-yuan notes, they were not fully implemented in this small city, the largest note that everyone used was still the 10-yuan note.
Think about it, the 500,000 stack of 10-yuan notes was a huge amount. A total of 500 stacks. So much money could be packed in that big sack, and it was because these were all new notes that were slightly smaller in size,
if it was those old notes, the volume would definitely be much larger than this,
Chen Ping would not really count the money one by one. If he were to count them one by one, who knew how long it would take? Chen Ping counted the wads and it was exactly 500 wads.
After counting, Chen Ping started to worry again. He looked at his daughter, Chen Meng’er, and said, “Meng’er, how are the two of us going to take back so much money?”
When Chen Ping asked this question, he did not think too much about it. At his daughter’s age, could she answer his question,
“Dad, why don’t we deposit a portion of the money in the bank?” Chen Meng’er saw such a big problem with the money and felt a headache coming. She did not expect the 500,000 yuan to be so big. With this amount of money, not to mention that the father and daughter did not have the strength to carry it back home from the city. Even if they did, the father and daughter didn’t dare to take the risk. This was all money.. If someone stole it, they would only be able to wipe away their tears.
