Chapter 24 A piece of black jade
On the way to the medical school, when the cold wind started blowing, it was still quite cold.
Like a magic trick, Zhou Jimin took out a military coat and put it on her body.
"Thank you."
Ding Qiunan, who was shy, did not have the brain capacity to think: Where did this military coat come from?
Fortunately, we didn't encounter any patrol team wearing armbands along the way.
"Go to bed early."
Zhou Jimin couldn't get in at the entrance of the medical school because the guard was very fierce.
"You too."
When Zhou Jimin disappeared into the darkness of twilight, Ding Qiunan suddenly remembered that he still had the military coat on him.
It seems that I can only wait until next time to return it to him.
She said to herself that although the weather was cold, the military coat was very warm, making her body and mind warmer.
Zhou Jimin did not go back to the courtyard, but went straight outside the city.
He has not forgotten what he has to do tonight.
Arriving outside the city, we came to a deserted grove.
A few minutes later, a distressed pickup truck drove on the small road, heading in the direction of Qinjiazhuang.
The roads these days are full of potholes and not very good.
By the time we arrived near Qinjiazhuang, it was already more than half an hour later.
"Who?"
Lao Qin and the others heard the sound of a car.
Although the pickup truck's engine sound is very quiet,
But in the quiet night, it was still very loud.
After a few dozen meters, Zhou Jimin got off the car.
"Old Qin, it's me, Zhou Jimin."
After meeting with Lao Qin and confirming that the Liu family's team was willing to barter, Zhou Jimin started the transaction without any nonsense.
When trading with the Liu Family Brigade, something went wrong.
One team member took out a black stone and said it was a family heirloom, black jade.
This team member's family is in a very difficult situation. There are two parents in their seventies and seven children. The children are about to starve to death.
Therefore, I had to sell the family heirloom.
Black jade?
Zhou Jimin looked at it curiously, "Can you let me take a look?"
The other party was a little hesitant.
It's pitch dark right now, but it's not very safe.
The kerosene lamp was not very bright, so Zhou Jimin pretended to take out his mobile phone from his bag.
Brush!
It blinded everyone’s eyes. Isn’t it too bright?
The light from a smartphone is soft, not dazzling, and bright enough.
There are also flashlights in the warehouse space, but they are all foreign products and are too bright, making them even more unsuitable.
Under the light, the black jade was placed on the ground.
As soon as Zhou Jimin reached out to take it, there was a vibration in the warehouse space.
It seems that I really want to get this piece of black jade.
This startled him, and he quickly retracted his hand, not daring to act rashly again.
If this black jade really disappears suddenly, then the joke will be big.
But no matter what, he will decide on this black jade.
So, he said calmly:
"Okay, no problem, what do you want to change?"
"Can I exchange for whole grains?"
The team member is a middle-aged man, but with his white hair and wrinkled face, he looks no different from a sixty-year-old man.
Coarse grains include millet, barley, sweet potatoes, potatoes, etc. Millet is not the rice in the south, but millet, also known as millet in the north.
The fine grains are rice and wheat, which are also the main foods brought by Zhou Jimin.
The family situation of middle-aged people is that they are satisfied if they can have enough food. How can they expect to eat fine grains?
And by directly exchanging it for coarse grains, his family won’t have to worry about going hungry.
When Zhou Jimin heard this, he was immediately embarrassed.
Because he has no whole grains at all.
In the warehouse space, there are basically white noodles made from rice and wheat, as well as various noodles such as instant noodles.
"I don't have any coarse grains here. How about this? I'll give you three hundred kilograms of rice and two hundred kilograms of white flour, plus two hundred yuan in cash, in exchange for this piece of black jade. How about that?"
Hiss!
When everyone heard this, they immediately took a breath.
That piece of black jade is so valuable?
Lao Qin quickly grabbed Zhou Jimin and shook his head at the latter.
The captain of the Liu family's brigade also shook his head at the middle-aged man, signaling the latter to refuse quickly.
You can’t be too greedy.
In this day and age, food is the most important thing.
A piece of black jade is not worth that much money at all.
Therefore, the reason why Zhou Jimin said this just now must be because he felt pity for the middle-aged man.
The shocked middle-aged man quickly reacted and stopped, saying that the black jade was not worth that much money.
"This piece of black jade is useful to me, so I took advantage of you."
Zhou Jimin waved his hand and said toughly:
"You don't need to feel guilty, these are my thoughts, that's it."
He didn't give the other party a chance to refuse.
It’s been a while since we came to this era.
But this was the first time he encountered something that could vibrate with the warehouse space.
Therefore, he was particularly curious and surprised.
Naturally, let’s cut through the mess quickly and deal with these things quickly.
The middle-aged man opened his mouth and gave in again.
Lao Qin was also trying to persuade Zhou Jimin, but the latter was unmoved.
"Uncle Dazhu, please arrange for everyone to help deliver three hundred kilograms of rice and two hundred kilograms of white flour to his home."
After crossing Lao Qin, Zhou Jimin directly discussed with Qin Dazhu.
After finishing speaking, he took out another two hundred yuan and stuffed it into the middle-aged man's hand.
The latter wanted to give in, but Zhou Jimin avoided it and asked Lao Qin and Captain Liu to help persuade him.
Seeing that something was wrong, Lao Qin and Captain Liu could no longer calm down.
After the two men persuaded him, the middle-aged man's eyes turned red and he was about to kneel down to Zhou Jimin with gratitude.
I almost scared the latter to death.
Nima, nothing is easy these days.
He is not doing good deeds, after all, the vibration of the warehouse space is not a trivial matter.
Unexpectedly, his kind act would actually cause the middle-aged man to behave like this.
It can only be said that people in this era are very pure, and materials in this era are indeed too scarce.
Next year will be the three-year disaster, and now it is beginning to take shape.
Otherwise, there would be no such thing as middle-aged people selling family heirlooms at low prices.
"Okay, okay, the black jade belongs to me, that's it, don't mention it again."
Zhou Jimin waved his hand domineeringly, finally shocking the middle-aged man.
After this incident, everyone looked at him differently.
It’s been a lot of work again, and it’s finally done.
After Lao Qin and Captain Liu took away the villagers, Zhou Jimin checked again before taking away the big white pears, eggs, and some mountain products.
The mountain goods were contributed by Qin Dazhu, the best hunter in Qin Village. This guy took out all his inventory.
The reason why he didn't give it yesterday was because he forgot.
Wolf skins, dried pheasants, swans, hares, etc. are all very good.
This shows how strong Qin Dazhu’s hunting skills are.
He drove the pickup truck towards the city, but because he was in need of warehouse space, he basically didn't stop much.
I changed to a bicycle outside the city, and when I returned to the courtyard, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
The four little ones have fallen asleep.
However, when he came in, the third child was still awake.
After saying hello, Zhou Jimin returned to the warehouse space, took a shower, lay on the bed, and then took out the piece of black jade.
When it touched the black jade, the warehouse space shook instantly.
