I unplugged the phone line to prevent ghost calls from coming in again, and took out my cell phone to call Lao Feng.
After I finally got through, Lao Feng told me that I had just gone to Kyoto on a business trip.
He was very polite and asked me if I needed help. Even though he was not in the provincial capital, he could still ask for help from others.
I hesitated for a moment, but refused again and again, then turned around and called Zhao Fei.
Although Zhao Fei is not very reliable or loyal, he has been in the circle all year round and can be regarded as well-rounded and well-informed.
If you ask him to help you palm your eyes, you should have a low chance of being tricked.
After the call was connected, Zhao Fei was very happy to hear that I wanted to ask him for help, and he said generously, "Old He! You are right to ask me for this matter!"
"I'm telling you, buying things, selling things, pulling strings, that's what I do, brother!"
"You must have found that reckless man Feng Lili, right?"
"He's a good fighter, but he's not very popular! If you ask him for help, when others see you, even if they don't want to cheat you, they will have to cheat you for his sake!"
I frowned when I heard this and said, "Is Lao Feng so popular?"
Zhao Fei chuckled: "He is the public spokesperson, how popular is he?"
"Brother, I am different. Brother, I take both black and white. When it comes to social relations and business, brother, I am a hundred times better than him!"
I sneered and said, "So powerful? How about you talk to the Qi family and Yu Bushun from northwest Shanxi and resolve the differences between us?"
Zhao Fei immediately stopped talking.
After a while, he said: "Lao He, my good brother, you two brothers are too troublesome. Let's not talk about this for now. Let's buy something first."
"Tell me first, what do you want to buy?"
I answered quickly: "Corpse wood, ghost tears, and corpse-eating insects."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Fei made a pop sound, as if he choked when drinking water.
He said in a fuss: "Old He, do you know what these three things are for? How much do they cost?"
I said impatiently: "I don't care how much you pay. If you can help me buy it, I'll buy it. If I can't, I'll find someone else!"
Zhao Fei said hurriedly: "No, no."
"Let me tell you, corpse wood is used for carving. It is usually a piece the size of an arm. If it is carved into a human image, it can attract the souls of the dead to burrow in. If there is a layer of evil-suppressing runes on the surface, then
It is the best prison for dead souls."
"Last year, one appeared at the Kyoto auction. It was as thick as a forearm and as long as it was. It sold for three million."
My heart skipped a beat, holy shit.
Three million! How about playing?
I said nothing, and Zhao Fei said again: "Ghost tears are used to soften the corpse king. At the level of the corpse king, the soft corpse incense is useless, but ghost tears are the most miraculous. This thing is more expensive than repairing corpse wood."
It’s even higher, because as long as you find the corpse wood in the right place, it won’t be a problem to cut it into ten or eight sections.”
"Ghost Tears are no good, you have to rely on luck if you want to find them! The current market price of Ghost Tears in the industry is about five million. Even if they are available, they are from northwestern Shanxi."
I feel even more uncomfortable.
Five million, and it’s from Yubu Shun in the north of Shanxi Province.
It’s probably not easy to buy if you have money.
As for corpse-eating bugs, they are even rarer. Poisonous magicians from Siam may have them, but even if they do, they generally don't sell them. That is the best thing about the evil magicians as their natal poisonous insects.
I became a little impatient and said, "Can you do it? I will prepare the money, and you are only responsible for pulling the strings, bargaining, and identifying the authenticity!"
"After the matter is completed, I will give you a commission of 10,000 yuan!"
For a transaction worth several million, a commission of 10,000 yuan is actually a small amount.
But I really didn’t plan to give him much. Who let this guy trick me the first time?
Zhao Fei said: "Lao He, I don't care if I don't charge you! But I'm done cheating you before. If that's okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow and let's go to Fangbei Trading Place to have a look!"
"As long as you have the money ready, I promise to get it for you at the cheapest price!"
After hanging up the phone, I lay on the chair at the front desk and squinted for a while. It wasn't until the alarm rang that I picked up the gold-plated invitation on the table and prepared to get off work.
When I saw the invitation, I couldn't help but murmur. I chose to send the invitation in the middle of the night, and I didn't know who had the idea.
Seeing that it was still early, I went back to the dormitory, took a shower, lay on the bed and slept for a while.
It wasn't until nine o'clock that I was woken up by Zhao Fei's phone call. This guy was already waiting for me outside.
I put my bank card and invitation in my pocket, changed my clothes and hurried out.
On the way, I even asked Zhao Fei to turn a corner and go to the bank.
In the ATM machine, I checked the balance of my bank card to avoid any trouble if I didn't have enough money.
When I saw the balance, I was completely stunned.
Damn it, the boss is so rich?
That series of zeros, I lost count for a while!
More than thirty million!
It’s all cash!
The boss told me his bank card and password so easily, so he wasn't afraid that I would run away with the money?
Isn't this guy a little too arrogant?
I muttered, but my heart was touched. From this point of view, Zhang Sanfen already had great trust in me.
Zhao Fei, who was waiting for me outside, urged impatiently: "Lao He, can you do it? If you don't have enough money, I'll lend you some and just stamp it with the seal of your funeral home!"
I said: "Do you think my boss will be short of your money? Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and lead the way!"
This fair is organized by Fangbei Commercial Bank and is a monthly convention.
You must know that the business of collecting corpses is very profitable, but it also requires a lot of things.
Most people are ignorant of these things, and no one will recognize them even if they are placed in front of them. Therefore, there is a group of businessmen who specialize in collecting all kinds of strange and weird gadgets from the public, and then sell them to the experts in the circle at high prices.
This is basically a hugely profitable deal.
For example, lightning-strike wood is very rare among the people. Ordinary families cut down the big trees and use them as firewood.
But if you are met by a businessman, you can buy it for two to three hundred and put it at a trade fair, and you can sell it for hundreds of thousands in minutes.
Another example is the weird purple cinnabar found in cinnabar mines. Ordinary people would treat it as impurities, remove it from the cinnabar mines, and throw it away.
But if it is seen by merchants, it will be recycled as scrap and sold at the trade fair for just a few grams! It is no different from gold!
Not to mention, there are still many people buying these.
Because cinnabar wards off evil spirits, purple cinnabar is the best among cinnabars!
Although the color is a bit strange, once it is ground into powder and a spell is written on the corpse king, even the most powerful zombies will not be able to jump up.
Inside the handbag Zhang Sanfen gave me, there was a small jar of purple cinnabar.
It is because of this cognitive bias that the business in this industry has become extremely popular.
Experts in the industry can earn up to 100,000 or 80,000 yuan every time they take a job, and there are many who earn millions a month.
When it comes to spending some money to buy something more powerful, they are unequivocal that spending a lot of money is considered light.
For example, the combined price of these three things I want to buy today is almost tens of millions!
