Chapter 1: Recovery System
In summer in the south, the sun is scorching and the air is extremely stuffy.
At the head of Lijia Village, a group of peasant women sat slumped under the dense poplar trees with bare arms and open collars, each holding popsicles in their mouths and eating them sizzlingly.
A fat woman was enjoying herself and shouted: "It's comfortable, it's so comfortable. Li Zhongnan, thank you. It's just that your thing is so hard that my aunt can't bite it, so she has to lick it with her tongue..."
As he spoke, he winked at a young man on the hammock.
"Ahem, Aunt Cuihua, what's mine is just the ice cream bars I bought!" Li Zhongnan looked at her yellow teeth embedded with leek leaves and a lump of more than two hundred kilograms of meat, and felt a sudden
A sudden chill.
Aunt Cuihua chuckled: "Hey, your face is red, it's so cute. Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I'm a college student, you plan to collect rags for the rest of your life?"
"What's wrong with collecting rags? I'm starting a business on my own! I don't have to live in a basement, I don't have to squeeze into buses, I don't have to look at my boss's face. It's so comfortable and free. Forget it, I tell you that you don't understand!" Li Zhongnan looked down upon him with disdain.
Aunt Cuihua said disdainfully: "Hey, you are still starting a business! Come on, how much money can you make just doing this?"
"Why can't I make money? Believe it or not, I will make a million next year!" Li Zhongnan shouted. Of course, he can't make a million by collecting rags here, but when he opens the stall to the county seat, he won't.
Same. Besides, he is not an ordinary collector of scraps.
"I really don't believe it!"
Aunt Cuihua rolled her eyes at him and said, "If you can make one million, I will marry Da Ya to you."
"I'll go! As for that little girl, does her hair grow evenly?"
Li Zhongnan felt ashamed.
Aunt Cuihua said: "Why aren't they all grown up? You wouldn't take a peek, right? My eldest daughter is very old. She will graduate from elementary school soon! Forget one million, you can just give her a betrothal gift of 18,000."
!" This woman became serious. She was already thinking in her heart that girls don't need to read so many books. A primary school diploma is enough. This guy is in good health. It would be great for Da Ya to marry him.
This kind of blessing means that at least he will not be left a widow. Besides, he was the first in the college entrance examination in Ank County back then. In ancient times, he was the number one scholar with a glorious ancestor. Although he was expelled from the school after only two years of study, he was still a college student. The wealth will not be passed on to outsiders.
Tian, who knows the basics, is much better than a girl who goes out to work and comes back with a big belly in a year and a half without even knowing who her father is.
"Okay, I'll blame you!"
Li Zhongnan was completely convinced and simply shut his mouth.
A hunchbacked old man in his seventies or eighties walked slowly over with two large sacks. Li Zhongnan smiled happily and greeted him: "Uncle De Biao, how was the harvest today?"
"It's not bad, let's see how much money I can exchange for it!" The old man wiped away the hot sweat and panted. Bottles and cans of scrap copper and iron fell to the floor, and he was immersed in sorting them with a smile on his face.
Li Zhongnan returned home and took out an iron scale: "The market has been bad these days, plastic bottles cost 60 cents per catty, and waste paper costs 20 cents per catty..."
"A few days ago..."
"A few days ago was a few days ago, and now is now. At this price, if you want to sell it, you can sell it. If you don't want to sell it, go somewhere else." Li Zhongnan turned around and left. This old man can't even ride a bicycle, and this is the only one in the nearby villages.
Recycle bin, where can he go?
"Okay, I'll sell it."
"Great!"
Li Zhongnan laughed evilly and started to work. It was inevitable that he would be short of a few pounds, "Three pounds of plastic bottles, five pounds of waste paper... a total of twenty-eight yuan! Uncle Winning, I said all your sons have graduated, all of them."
Your monthly income is several thousand, how can you do this when you are about to die?"
Li Debiao glared at him: "What? You are a rag collector, but you still look down on me, a rag collector?"
Okay, he shut up.
"Oh, there's no other way. My eldest son is getting married, and my wife lives in the city. She said she must buy a house, which costs several million. I'm an old man, so I'll just be idle when I'm idle. I'll make more money.
Let's collect a down payment for them." Li Debiao said with a proud smile. His son can marry a girl from the city, which will honor his ancestors.
"What about the second and third sons? Do you have to pay them when they get married?"
Li Zhongnan pulled out three happy reunion cards: "Here, thirty. The extra two yuan will buy you popsicles to cool down on a hot day." This profiteer was a bit emotional and couldn't help but sigh. His son has been raised, so I will give you money.
After studying, I still need money to marry a wife and support a mistress...
I pity all the parents in the world.
Move the scraps back into the yard and quickly close the door.
Li Zhongnan waved his hand, and a pile of waste products disappeared out of thin air in front of his eyes and appeared in a vast metal space.
At the same time, a transparent page appeared in the consciousness, similar to the game option box, with four golden characters clearly saying 'Recycling Center'. Below, there are three options, namely: sell, repair, buy. Now "Buy"
"This function is still gray and not activated.
Actively sort waste items.
Drinking plastic bottle (grey): recyclable material, 200 kg/1 gold coin.
Books (white): recyclable materials, 100 kg/1 gold coin.
Scrap iron (black): recyclable materials, 150kg/gold coin.
Damaged Hetian Jade (green): a recyclable item, has a value and can be repaired.
green?
Li Zhongnan picked up the jade pendant and grinned, his eyes full of excitement.
The "recycling system" has been around for two months, and he has tested it many times. In theory, any item can be restored to its factory state through the system's repair function. However, many items have little repair value, such as a pen and a book.
The book, a piece of paper, is in a damaged and unusable state. It costs a certain amount of gold coins to repair it, but it cannot be sold for much money.
Green items have a certain repair value. There are some faulty bicycles and motorcycles piled up in the metal space, all of which are green. If you resell them after repairing them, you should be able to make a small profit.
Although he didn't know much about antiques and treasures, just by looking at the name, he knew that this jade pendant should be worth a lot of money.
"How many gold coins are needed to repair the 'broken jade pendant'?"
"Dingdong: Thirty gold coins, would you like to repair it?"
Li Zhongnan frowned. Thirty gold coins is not a small amount. Waste paper books are calculated at 50 cents per catty. Obtaining one gold coin costs one hundred soft girls. Thirty gold coins are equivalent to three thousand soft girls.
Coins. The cost-effectiveness of reselling scrap paper books to the system is much higher than that of scrap copper and iron. Therefore, in total, it takes at least 5,000 gold coins to obtain thirty gold coins.
"yes!"
Gritting his teeth, Li Zhongnan took the risk. The timid will starve to death and the bold will die. If he doesn't give it a try, he really doesn't know when or what month he will be able to open the stall to the county seat.
"Ding Dong: Repair completed!"
A brand new jade pendant appeared in Li Zhongnan's hand. It was not damaged at all and was in perfect condition. It felt cold and warm with a touch of warmth, making it feel very comfortable.
He originally accumulated 99.8 gold coins, spent 30 gold coins, and now has 69.8 gold coins left. He then sold the scraps he just collected and obtained 0.2 gold coins, leaving a total of 70 gold coins in the system. Then, he repaired three dilapidated motorcycles.
The car, as well as a dozen bicycles, consumed several gold coins.
"Whether you can turn over and become the master depends on this time!" Li Zhongnan played with the jade pendant in his hand, full of expectations, not knowing how much it could be sold for.
I have been working in this business for more than half a year, and I originally made 18,000 yuan, but in the past two months, all the scraps I received were sold to the system, leaving only expenses and no income. I spent another 2,000 yuan to buy a shabby house two days ago.
The van came to be repaired, and now the savings are almost at the bottom.
Li Zhongnan hid the jade pendant, and moved the bicycles and motorcycles into the van. Some of them were placed in the compartment, and some were placed on the roof. In addition, the van was modified inside to facilitate the collection of junk, so it could barely fit these vehicles.
Then, he went straight to the county seat.
Chapter completed!
