Hans opened the back of the car and showed the teacher what they had brought. ”Take a look. Do you see anything you wanna trade for?”
The teacher laughed, ”Sorry, we have all of these in our school. We only want a projector. But if you don't have one, that laptop will do.”
Hans always brought his laptop with him so that he could check up on the latest information on the Association's website.
Hans's eyes sparkled. ”So what do you have in exchange?” he asked.
”We have handmade tables and chairs, some wooden handcrafted goods, and some of our tribe's special drawings. What do you guys want?” the teacher asked.
Hans showed the Native his laptop, but that guy said with dissatisfaction, ”It's not a MacBook? Oh well, HP will do too.”
”F*ck, what's great about Apple products?” Hans mumbled.
”Yeah, right?” Li Du agreed.
”I guess I'll buy a MacBook after we get back,” Hans said.
Li Du was speechless.
They followed the teacher into the exhibit room inside the school. They saw many small-sized wooden handicrafts, while on the walls there were watercolor paintings, oil paintings and something like embroidery crafts too.
Hans looked around and was disappointed by the exhibit. ”Oh no, don't tell me that all of these are works are by children? Looks like they were poorly made. Your sculptor friend in Phoenix makes nicer collections.”
Li Du looked around and found out that most of the crafts displayed were the size of a fist. Although they used different types of wood, unfortunately the quality was bad. He couldn't even recognize some of the animals.
After hearing what they had said, the teacher laughed, ”These are abstract handicrafts. Even though they aren't exquisite works of art, they are unique, and a way for outsiders to recognize us.”
Li Du let out the little bug and it flew right to a polished wooden monkey. He became excited, thinking that he might have actually found something valuable. He used the Relive the Past ability to review the crafting progress of the sculpture.
The sculpture had been crafted by a middle-aged Native American with messy hair, but it had been finished only around 50 years ago.
He took up the sculpture and asked Hans, ”Do you think this stuff is valuable?”
Hans felt helpless. ”Does it have a signature from a master? If it doesn't then it has no value.”
The little bug flew around the handicrafts and was interested in some of the works. When it flew higher, it even showed interest in two of the embroidery works hanging on the wall.
Li Du knew there was time energy in the handicrafts, so he gathered them and asked the teacher, ”Can I exchange these with the laptop?”
”Sure,” the teacher nodded.
Hans asked Li Du in a low voice, ”So this stuff is valuable?”
