ps: Add two or three things for the book friend Gigi

Xiao Peng shook his head with a smile. Martin was embarrassed: "Xiao, I know that you may not be satisfied with this price, in fact, I really want to give you more, but my wife and I have been saving money for all these years, preparing to give my wife surgery." I want her to experience what it's like to be a mother once. Hope you understand. ”

"Huh?" Xiao Peng was shocked when he heard this, "Martin, your wife is already in her fifties, right?

Martin nodded, "Don't underestimate the power of science. Under the current medical technology, it is completely possible to restore her uterus to a normal state, and through a period of drug conditioning and hormone injection, she can completely re-menstruate and ovulate. Her biggest regret in her life is that she can't feel what it's like to be a mother, so I've been saving for her surgery all these years. So it's a little bit less to give you money, can you accept it?"

Xiao Peng smiled: "You misunderstood what I meant, I shook my head not because I was dissatisfied with the money, but because I didn't want the money at all." ”

"How can that be?" Martin's eyes widened.

Xiao Peng waved his hand: "Martin, you are indeed a good person, if you don't say it, I don't know that this Kuite doll is so expensive, in my eyes, he is just a few dozen dollars." I just made a thousand dollars today, which is enough. ”

Martin wanted to say something, but Xiao Peng changed the topic: "Martin, even if you treat your wife's body, what should you do about your problem?"

Martin knew what Xiao Peng meant, after all, he had a serious problem of low sperm density. Martin shook his head: "I'll forget it, let's leave more money to prepare for our future children." I've already thought about it, go to the sperm bank, and find a genetically good sperm for IVF. ”

Xiao Peng cupped his cheeks and thought for a while: "Don't you want your own child?"

Martin smiled bitterly: "Of course I want to, but these days, it's too difficult to make money." Stars and Stripes' damn health insurance policy, there is no medical insurance for surgeries like this, and I have been saving up for medical expenses for my dear for ten years! Do I have to save for another ten years of medical expenses for myself? I want to open it, as long as it is a child born to her, it is my child, isn't it? We people in Stars and Stripes are quite cheerful about this, and adopted children are the same for us. What if there is a blood relationship?"

Xiao Peng smiled: "Martin, even so, don't forget to donate to the orphanage, you are a good person." God has said that good people should be rewarded. ”

Martin smiled very reluctantly: "I hope, Xiao, in fact, sometimes I question God, I keep asking God for help, but he never listens to my voice, never helps me solve my problems!"

Xiao Peng comforted him and said: "Martin, don't give up your faith, when you encounter difficulties and ask God, it is because you believe in God, and God does not respond to you, it is because God believes in you." Believe me, just pledge your piety, and God will surprise you greatly. ”

After finishing speaking, Xiao Peng couldn't complain about himself, a pure atheist, who inexplicably inherited the witchcraft of Lizhongwu, but now he is fooling, oh no, it's enlightening Catholics, I'm really a genius!

Martin listened, silently drew a cross on his chest, Xiao Peng smiled: "Okay, Martin, keep working, I will help you here and my warehouse, by the way, Martin, you have to help me, I don't have a car, after I tidy up the garbage, you want to help me dispose of the garbage, can you?"

Martin came back to his senses: "Surely there is no problem! Let's do our best! I'll treat you to a big dinner in the evening!"

Xiao Peng nodded: "Okay, then I'm welcome." ”

In Martin's warehouse, he left most of the children's items, but there was not much garbage, and he cleaned it up with three large garbage bags. After Xiao Peng finished all the work on Martin's side, he asked Martin for a few garbage bags, ran to the broken warehouse he photographed, and without saying a word, he took out a small box from the box containing the broken hookah and stuffed it into his backpack, and stuffed the garbage directly into the garbage bag.

Martin drove the truck over, and when he saw the situation, he couldn't help but laugh: "Xiao, are you really here to clean up the garbage for them? ”

Xiao Peng smiled: "Actually, it's really rewarding, I've already put it up, and I'll show you the work after a while." After that, he continued to stuff the garbage into the garbage bag.

Like Xiao Peng, he didn't even choose, he directly loaded garbage bags, and the cleaning was fast, and a total of eight large bags of garbage were cleaned out of the entire warehouse.

After Xiao Peng cleaned up the warehouse, he walked out of the warehouse: "Oh yes, the task is complete!"

AS SOON AS HE FINISHED SPEAKING, A CHEVROLET STEPVAN DROVE UP. Sitting in the car were Sean and one of his brothers: "Xiao, do it so fast!"

THE CHEVROLET STEPVAN IS PROBABLY A CAR THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE SEEN BUT CAN'T NAME, IN FACT, THIS KIND OF CAR IS ALSO VERY COMMON IN THE STARS AND STRIPES, THAT IS, BOXY VANS. Generally speaking, it is used in food trucks, FedEx trucks, ice cream trucks, and the like.

Xiao Peng smiled: "It's all garbage anyway, it must be cleaned up quickly, how is your harvest there?"

Sean stretched out his thumb: "So I'll just say, the Huaxia people will always be our good brothers, you let me escape the trap of that Nanmu bed, and my harvest here is really good!" After speaking, he took a few boxes from his brother's hand: "Unopened 7.62 caliber bullets! Five whole boxes! That's two thousand five hundred dollars! And that AR-15 is definitely the top configuration, today is definitely my lucky day!"

"Then congratulations, how did you finish cleaning up?" Xiao Peng asked.

Sean replied: "I found a market-circulating gun from the warehouse, and I had to go to the warehouse to file it, and I just went to the warehouse company to register it." Let's have dinner together in the evening, you are definitely my lucky star. ”

Xiao Peng said: "I have promised to have dinner with Martin in the evening. ”

Sean said, "Let's go with us then, Martin, what do you think?" I think what Xiao said also makes sense, since it's out, let's make a truce." ”

Martin sighed, "Sean, you have to figure it out, I never wanted to go to war with you." ”

Sean smiled: "Okay, Hodison, you help, put the garbage that Martin and Xiao cleaned up in our car, and let's go and dispose of the garbage first." ”

Martin hurriedly waved his hand: "What's so embarrassing?"

Sean said: "Xiao is right, we are all Idahoans after all, we can't let these Californians take advantage of us, use my car to deliver garbage, we can spend a lot less! Hodison, work!"

Sean said so, Xiao Peng and Martin stopped talking, Xiao Peng thought that this Indian was also cute, and he loved and hated clearly. Be as direct as you want.

The garbage was quickly loaded into the car, Mrs. Martin put water from the water tank on the truck for everyone to rinse, Sean and Martin glanced at each other, and suddenly laughed, Xiao Peng was puzzled: "What are you laughing at?"

Sean said: "I suddenly feel that Martin and I don't delay making money like this, what do you say about what we are fighting." ”

Martin nodded: "Actually, I think so too." By the way, Xiao, didn't you say that you also gained something in this house? What the hell is it?"

Xiao Peng smiled slightly, and took out a long box from his backpack: "That's it." ”

Martin asked curiously, "What is this?"

Xiao Peng smiled: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just three ZIPPO lighters, I think they are always worth five dollars, right? It just so happens that I don't have a good lighter, so I use them." ”

Martin took the long box, and when it was opened, it was covered with flannel, and three ZIPPO lighters were lying inside: in the middle was a brass lighter with no pattern, the other two were wrapped in a leather case with Soviet Union markings, and the other was a white inlay on the shell of the lighter, which was a sailboat.

Martin picked up the lighter and took a closer look. Xiao Peng smiled: "Why Martin, do you like it too? Then you can keep one." ”

Martin carefully put the lighter into the box and handed it back to Xiao Peng: "Xiao, you're right, good people really have good rewards, I really can't afford to keep such a valuable lighter, you can treasure it." ”

This made Xiao Peng stunned: "The ZIPPO lighter is not expensive, right?" After speaking, he picked up the brass lighter: "You see that it is so simple, it doesn't even have a pattern, how much can it be worth?"

Martin gave a direct answer: "Twenty thousand dollars." Sean, who was smoking on the side, heard this price and coughed violently: "Martin, your joke is a bit excessive, you said that this brass lighter costs 20,000 meters of gold?"

Martin nodded: "I'm not kidding, these were the first lighters that Zippo began to produce in 1933, and naturally they were expensive. ”

"So this is still an antique?" Xiao Peng took the lighter for a long time, pointed to the other two lighters and said, "These two ZIPPO shouldn't be antiques, right?"

Martin nodded: "These two are not antiques, but these two lighters are more expensive, and the price is more than 30,000 US dollars." ”

Xiao Peng was dumbfounded: "What is the origin of these two?"

Martin explained: "To be precise, although these two are exactly the same as the ZIPPO, they are not ZIPPO lighters at all, but Febchi vintage jewelry lighters, which are inlaid with ivory, and the coat of arms of the Soviet Union is made of small crocodile leather, and the gold on the coat of arms is gold, and the red is ruby." ”

Sean whistled, "Xiao, you're really developed." ”

Xiao Pengleng nodded there: "Okay, sure enough, good people have good rewards." ”

Sean scratched his head: "Martin, I wanted to invite you and Xiao to dinner at first, but now how do I feel that it is the most appropriate for him to have dinner?"

Martin was silent for a while: "Well, that's how I feel now. ”

Xiao Peng: "。。。。。。 Are you so realistic!" (https:)
