Chapter 15: Chapter 15 Why Is This Guy So Calm_1
He had to find a reasonable explanation.
When he returned, he was already downstairs and had even called his mother to come down and help him carry the stuff.
He couldn\'t carry so many items on his own.
Thinking about it, Ye Fan realized that he should have a car by now, which would make things much more convenient.
In the future, whether coming and going or collecting rewards, it would all be a lot easier.
One of these days, when he had some free time, he definitely needed to choose a car. Besides, he had long obtained his driver\'s license. If he didn\'t buy a car soon, he\'d become even more reluctant to drive.
Soon, Mother Ye hurried downstairs.
Of course, the Confinement Nanny Xiao Mei also came down with her.
"Son, why did you buy so many things? There\'s a stroller, a crib..." Mother Ye exclaimed in surprise at the items on the ground.
These were all purchases for the baby.
Look at this baby crib, it\'s really nice; the wood feels so comfortable to the touch.
And this foldable stroller isn\'t bad either.
She had thought about buying a stroller for the children before so she could wheel them around the house instead of carrying them, which was tiring and made her sweat.
Her son was more and more like a dad, thinking of everything so thoroughly.
He\'s grown up, really grown up.
Mother Ye was filled with relief and a sense of accomplishment when she saw her precious son.
Her son was truly good.
Once they moved the items upstairs, Ye Fan started to unfold the stroller, which had quite a large space. Naturally, it was divided inside, with exactly four separate compartments for each child.
The fabric of the stroller, though unknown what it was made of, felt very smooth to the touch and looked sturdy. This quad stroller didn\'t look much different from a regular one, but the materials used in its construction were clearly not ordinary.
Even the wheels were exceptionally responsive. Basically, any feature a regular baby stroller had, this stroller also had, and it even had features regular strollers didn\'t.
Of course, what Ye Fan liked most was the hidden function of the stroller which provided a great level of safety for the children.
Looking at the quadruplet baby crib, the wood seemed extraordinary, with a faint fragrance and a smooth and gentle touch.
What kind of wood was it made from? Ye Fan was puzzled.
"System, what kind of wood is this made of?" Ye Fan couldn\'t help but ask the System out of curiosity.
"Host, this is made of Nanmu Wood, a royal material," came the mechanical voice in Ye Fan\'s mind.
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan was instantly shocked.
It was Nanmu Wood, a nationally protected second-class plant.
Of course, Nanmu Wood was a precious type of timber. The large trees can grow more than 30 meters tall with straight trunks. The smaller branches are thin and either ridged or nearly cylindrical, covered with gray-yellow or gray-brown long or short soft hairs.
The wood has a scent, with straight grain and dense structure that resists warping and cracking, making it excellent for construction and high-end furniture. Historically, Nanmu Wood was exclusively used for royal palaces, a few temples, and furniture. Nanmu Wood has more crystals visible than ordinary Nanmu, shining golden in sunlight with golden fibers and a subtle, elegant fragrance.
According to "Comprehensive Records on Natural Science," there are three types of Nanmu Wood: first, the aromatic Nanmu, which is slightly purple and fragrant with a beautiful pattern; second, the Nanmu with gold threads (another name for `Zhen Nan\' and `Purple Nan\'), which has golden threads in the grain and is the best kind of Nanmu, and what\'s more precious is that some Nanmu wood naturally forms patterns of landscapes, people, and flowers; third is water Nanmu, which is softer and often used in furniture making. Ancient emperors\' dragon thrones were made of high-quality Nanmu, which was also a special material for constructing royal palaces, mausoleums, and gardens since the Qing dynasty, and it became rare then. In the late Ming Dynasty, Xie Zaihang\'s "Five Miscellaneous Morsels" mentioned that Nanmu grows in the mountains and valleys of Chu and Shu, with trees hundreds of meters tall half-buried in sand and soil. Therefore, they are cut to make coffins and called \'sand boards.\' The finest boards have grain when opened and are as hard as iron and stone. To test them, they would be made into boxes to store raw meat for several nights, and the color would not change.
Truly, a System product is a mark of excellence.
Ye Fan felt like he had made a killing.
How could he also want a Nanmu Wood bed?
Unfortunately, this was for his children. He couldn\'t possibly compete with the kids for it, that would be quite unreasonable.
Anyway, with the System, he wasn\'t afraid of not getting a Nanmu Wood bed!
Thinking this, Ye Fan moved the bed into Bai Susu\'s room. There was plenty of space to accommodate it; the bed measured about 1.6 x 1.6 meters and had railings on all sides to prevent the children from rolling off.
When Bai Susu saw the bed, her eyes lit up. She approached it, sniffed, touched it, and her eyes filled with surprise.
The color, the fragrance, and the touch, it was undoubtedly Nanmu Wood.
"Ye Fan, where did you get this Nanmu Wood bed?" Bai Susu asked, her stunning face full of shock.
After all, Nanmu Wood was hard to come by, practically priceless.
Looking at the wood, it must have been from a tree that was several hundred years old.
Previously, her grandfather had also wanted to buy a Nanmu Wood bed, but he never found one. Nanmu Wood was so elusive that, to this day, her grandfather was still longing for it.
She hadn\'t expected the Nanmu Wood her grandfather had spent years looking for, to appear in Ye Fan\'s hands; she was utterly astonished.
How on earth did he manage it?
"A friend gave it to me," Ye Fan didn\'t seem too surprised; after all, he would have plenty more of these in the future, so it was not something to fuss over.
The System was certainly a friend.
"(⊙o⊙)..." Bai Susu was a bit surprised.
What kind of friend could casually give away Nanmu Wood?
Looking at Ye Fan\'s composed demeanor, did he not know the value of Nanmu Wood, or did he truly not care about it?
You have to understand, many wealthy families were searching for a piece of Nanmu Wood, some to make beds, others to use as coffins for burial, yet they all were still searching.
Bai Susu remembered her grandfather saying that, more than a decade ago, a few-hundred-year-old Nanmu tree appeared, causing a frenzied scramble among many people and creating quite an uproar. In the end, it was sold for tens of millions.
And yet, looking at Ye Fan\'s serene composure, Bai Susu really felt bewildered.
"Alright, it\'s just Nanmu Wood. There will be more in the future. You\'re in your confinement period, so try not to leave the bed. Get on, this is for the kids. From now on, the four little ones will sleep here, and you can rest well too," Ye Fan said, helping Bai Susu to the edge of the bed and gesturing for her to lie down.
He went on to pick up the four little bundles of joy.
Listening to Ye Fan\'s words, Bai Susu was somewhat speechless.
What did he mean by \'it\'s just Nanmu Wood\'? If it were taken out, it would undoubtedly cause a frenzy, even if it was only suitable for children to sleep in, it was still worth a fortune.
Did this guy even know the value of Nanmu Wood?
Any person facing a piece of Nanmu Wood worth tens of millions wouldn\'t remain so composed!
Watching Ye Fan\'s tranquil demeanor, Bai Susu really felt puzzled.
No matter what, Ye Fan truly cared for the children, and Bai Susu suddenly felt a bit jealous.
"There you go, you four little ones will sleep here from now on. Don\'t make noise and disturb mom, okay?" Ye Fan said with a smile, his voice filled with immense affection.
The four little ones sucked on their fingers, their eyes moist as they gazed at Ye Fan, this new father.
[Bai Cai here, asking for votes, for favs, for comments! Hand them over, Bai Cai sees all. You\'ve got lots of votes to spare, hurry up and give them to me. Or are you saving them for someone else? Wouldn\'t it be nice to give them to Bai Cai!]
