Jiang Yun was so anxious that she wished she could step forward and interrupt the conversation between the two.
Biaozi patted her back lightly and whispered, "Don't worry, Brother Tu naturally has his own intentions."
Jiang Yun was stunned, what is the intention? What could be the intention?
She looked at the two people who were negotiating the price, and heard the mine owner say: "You can only pay 30,000 yuan if you buy them all. That's not possible, at least 50,000 yuan!"
Wei Tu smiled and shook his head: "Let's do this..."
After some haggling, the price was finally set at 40,000.
The mine owner showed a satisfied smile: "It's a pleasure to do business with you!"
Wei Tu, on the other hand, had a frown on his face: "With so many rough stones, we don't have anything to store them for a while. Look at this..."
As he spoke, he took out four stacks of hundred-dollar bills from his bag.
When the mine owner saw the real gold and silver, he said without thinking, "You can take the box as well."
Wei Tu smiled: "You are such a cheerful person, could you please send us and the boxes to a nearby town?"
After he finished speaking, he handed over the banknotes.
When the mine owner got the money, he smiled happily and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I will arrange for two tricycles to take you there."
After he finished speaking, he went out to look for someone.
At this time, Jiang Yun finally understood that Wei Tu was a drunkard who didn't care about drinking, and his target was the three boxes from beginning to end.
"Are these three boxes valuable?"
Wei Tu laughed loudly: "Hey, I didn't expect that there would be times when our little lady would punch her in the eye!"
Jiang Yun glanced at him angrily.
Wei Tu stopped teasing her and said in a serious tone: "These three boxes are all made of dark wood. These things are worth a lot of money."
There are many types of sunken wood, including ebony, nanmu... different materials have different prices in the market.
So the most urgent task now is to first find out the material of the wood.
He called Biaozi over: "Biaozi, let's take it out and take a look. It's too dark in this room and we can't see the original appearance of the box."
The two of them worked together to lift a box and put it outside the house. The dazzling sunlight shone on the dark wooden box, seeming to reveal a light golden sheen.
Biaozi exclaimed: "Jinsi..."
Wei Tu covered his mouth: "Speak softly! If the mine owner hears it, don't regret it on the spot!"
Jiang Yun understood and whispered tentatively: "Golden nanmu?"
Wei Tu smiled and nodded, unable to contain the excitement in his eyes.
As the old saying goes, ten grams of gold are exchanged for one gram of wood, which is golden nanmu.
These three boxes, due to being piled up in a dusty environment all year round, have lost their former luster and are so dusty that no one can tell.
"Wait for the tricycle to come in a moment and lift it up. Don't talk too much. We'll talk about it when we get to town."
Soon, two miners came over on two tricycles.
Everyone worked together to lift the box up. Everyone sat next to each other and rode for more than an hour to the nearest town.
*
The group of people found a guest house to settle down first, and everyone agreed that the He family's father and daughter would take the boxes and rough stones back to Ye's hometown first, while Biaozi, Wei Tu and Jiang Yun would continue to stay here.
Because there are many small jade veins near the town, the three of them plan to try their luck there.
After everything was arranged, Jiang Yun contacted Mr. Ye, and soon a small truck took the He family and his daughter away.
After seeing the two of them off, the sky was getting dark, and the three of them decided to find a better restaurant to rest their stomachs.
As soon as Biaozi sat down, he asked the waiter for three hard dishes arrogantly: "An elbow, a fish, and an old hen!"
Wei Tu gave him a slap in the face: "You know how to eat! Whatever is more expensive!"
Biaozi said with a playful smile: "Brother Tu is treating you to a treat, but I can't help you with your expenses!"
The two men were accustomed to quarreling with each other. Jiang Yun smiled and shook her head, and asked the waiter for another dish of fried vegetables.
Three meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and two bottles of beer to take away. The waiter happily placed the order for them.
Biaozi: "Brother Tu, how much are the three boxes we collected today worth?"
Wei Tu looked around and saw that no one was looking this way, so he made a "one" gesture.
Biaozi was a little frustrated: "Only ten thousand? Then we didn't lose money!"
Wei Tu picked up his chopsticks and hit him on the head, laughing and cursing: "Idiot! One hundred thousand!"
!!!
Biaozi was shocked! One hundred thousand! This business is a huge profit!
He turned to look at Jiang Yun: "Xiaoyun, how much can we earn from the rough stones we bought today?"
Jiang Yun made an estimate: "It's about the same, it could be worth a hundred thousand."
!!!
Another 100,000! This doesn’t even count the deal with God’s Royal Green!
Biaozi was immediately elated, grinning and laughing loudly: "Damn it, we made a lot of money this time! Hahaha!"
"But it's a pity that we still have a piece of rough stone that we haven't bought yet! This emperor..."
When this man is happy, his voice becomes louder! Wei Tu kicked him and interrupted what he was about to say: "Keep your voice down! Why do you want everyone to know?"
Biaozi scratched his head and smiled innocently.
During the conversation between the three of them, their voices were lowered throughout, but some of the content still reached the ears of those who were interested.
Not far away, four men were sitting. They were changing glasses, but their ears were all upright to listen to what was going on at Jiang Yun's table.
A man with a round face spoke: "Brother, those three are foreigners who came to buy rough stones. They look like fat sheep at first sight!"
The man who was called Big Brother had a long scar on his face and a fierce look between his brows.
He took a swig of beer and said cheerfully: "I heard it, I'm not deaf!"
"Fourth! Are the three bags of rubbish stones we got before still there?"
The younger brother who was named nodded: "Here you are, big brother. They are piled up in the corner and are almost getting hairy!"
The scarred man knocked on his empty wine glass, and a young man immediately came forward to pour him wine.
"Then let's stick to the old method and make a deal that you and I are willing to do!"
This group of local ruffians are best at forced buying and selling. They force passing merchants to buy a bunch of rags under the guise of doing business voluntarily.
In order to avoid getting into trouble, many people can only spend money to avoid trouble even if they know they have been cheated.
Hearing this, several boys at the dinner table nodded in unison, looked at each other, and all smiled heartily.
Looks like another big deal is coming!
Jiang Yun and the others, who didn't know anything about it, returned to the guest house after having enough wine and food.
Several local ruffians followed and found the place. After some careful arrangements, a dangerous conspiracy began.
Jiang Yun and the others, who were completely unaware, had already fallen asleep...
On the second day, several tricycles soliciting business were parked in front of the guest house, and they lined up in the order of arrival.
Several cyclists were gathering together to play poker while no one was around.
A tricycle passing by quickly suddenly crossed into the first row, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the masters. They put down their playing cards and a group of people went straight to the man.
