Really? He has been eating that stuff for years. I would not worry about that veggies.

The first thought that came to mind was my morals will not allow me to sell something that will help kill him. He could have them for free if they are so valuable to him. Then Immulmen solved the equation. The new strategy would be to get his bid. Then scrap the lead and tell him you made so much more you could not give it up for business reasons. If he allowed you to scrap his lead pipes it would be enough to replace the lines and pay your labor, allowing you to make a living, giving him pride that he is not a charity case, and provide him a healthier living situation.
