In the western restaurant on Zhongshan Road, Scott and Herbert were gathered together in the western restaurant. Scott said: "Your friend Mr. Lin Mo is really not simple.
You bought something from me the day before yesterday, and you made a huge profit on your back. You got all the money you spent on the purchase back. Do you know this?"
Herbert nodded and said: "Yesterday morning I saw him leading a group of people into the restaurant, and then four trucks went out. They came back in the evening, and the trucks drove out again in the evening, but soon they were gone.
I returned, probably to send Lin and the others back to school. As for the treasure hunt, I was confused when I saw the newspaper today. It wasn’t until you told me that you sold the metal detector to Lin that I learned about Lin yesterday.
We’re going treasure hunting.”
Scott nodded and said: "It seems that he hid it from both of us."
After hearing this, Herbert said: "He wouldn't have told us originally, and this is an opportunity. You quickly find someone in the United States and order all the goods from the mine detector factory. You will definitely make a lot of money by then."
pen."
Hearing this, Scott was stunned and asked: "How can it be possible to make a lot of money? If you can sell a few dozen in Nanjing, it will be huge. And there are no orders from the army, so you can't sell much at all."
Herbert smiled and explained: "Scott, you don't understand this. You have been in China for too short a time, and you have spent a lot of time in Shanghai. It is an international city, and many things in China are
Invisible."
"Treasure hunting is a business that can be done not only in Nanjing, but all over China. I have been in Nanjing for many years, and I know that Chinese people like to save money. Just like today's newspaper wrote about digging for treasures in houses,
Many Chinese people bury their money, and then some of it is not taken out for various reasons. After thousands of years, no one knows how many things are buried under this land, and metal detectors can help them find out how many things are buried under this land.
Underground treasure, do you think this is a good business?"
After hearing this, Scott smiled so hard that he couldn't even see his eyesight. He nodded and said: "Herbert, you are really my lucky star. You introduced Lin, a big customer, to me the day before yesterday and made me a fortune. I didn't expect you."
Today brought me such a big surprise again, no, I must count you in this time."
Seeing that Herbert was about to refuse again, Scott quickly said: "Herbert, if you want to remain friends, don't refuse me."
Herbert had no choice but to nod in agreement. When Scott saw it, he said happily: "This is the right thing. Although we are friends, friends are friends. Business is business, and money must be accounted for."
Herbert nodded after listening. He was far from Scott in terms of business acumen. He came to China to run a leather shop and almost went bankrupt. It was later that he did the second-hand dealer business provided by Lin Mo to avoid living on the streets.
Now that Scott has said this, he must consider it.
Now that Scott had given him a share, he naturally had to think more about this business. He thought about it carefully and said: "Scott, you have to hurry up. Now some companies in China have begun to monopolize China's imports."
Well, if you want to make a lot of money from this, then you should order all the metal detectors from the factory as soon as possible, otherwise we may not even be able to make money."
Hearing this, Scott was stunned and asked: "Is it Seven Star Company? They are not so powerful, are they?"
Herbert shook his head after hearing this and said: "I don't know how powerful the other party is, but I heard a rumor that they are already in contact with the Lin family, and they seem to want to take over the Lin family's import business. The backstage of the other party seems to be the national government.
Sir, it seems that the Lin family is giving up its import business."
Scott frowned after hearing this. This incident also gave him a headache. Although it was impossible for the other party to deal with him, the business would eventually be affected. Thinking of this, he asked Herbert: "Is this credible?
?"
When Herbert heard this, he nodded and said: "It should be credible. I heard this from the Lin family clerk some time ago. This morning he came to my store, and I asked him casually, and then I found out who he was.
Seven Star Company."
After hearing this, Scott nodded and said: "It seems that this matter can't be wrong. I will immediately send a telegram to the United States and ask them to place an order. I have ordered all the goods for the metal detector factory. As soon as they are produced, they will be shipped.
Come here."
After saying that, he got up and went out, wrote down the contents of the telegram, and asked his subordinates to send the telegram back to the United States.
At this time, except for the people who negotiated with Uncle Lou and the backstage in Nanjing, everyone else in Seven Star Company was in Shanghai. After all, Shanghai at this time was an international metropolis and the busiest area for business activities in China. Many
Giant businessmen all conduct business in Shanghai, but unfortunately the other party did not respond this time. As a result, Scott and Herbert made a lot of money. Of course, this is a story for another day.
In the editorial offices of Xicheng Daily and Jinling Daily, the two chief editors were very excited because they both got a big news today. Although there were not many treasures found from Xie Bangqing's home, this also shows that today's newspapers
It is possible to hunt for treasure in your yard, and metal detectors have been spread.
Both of them firmly believed that tomorrow's newspapers would definitely cause a sensation, and several people who got the metal detectors asked Xie Bangqing to use the excuse of proving that they had not dug up the heavenly treasure, and invited Lu Xiaoying and Bai Yun to let reporters come tomorrow.
After participating in the treasure hunt, the editors-in-chief of both parties finally decided to follow and report on the progress of the treasure hunt.
In the yard where Wang Shoufei and his friends lived, a table was filled with all kinds of delicious dishes. Eight people were sitting around the table eating there. In addition to Wang Shoufei and the others, the owner of the grocery store also came over. Seven people came to Nanjing.
It’s been a long time since I’ve had such a good meal. They were all holding bowls and digging hard at the rice, and the dishes quickly disappeared under everyone’s chopsticks. The grocery store owner was more gentle, but his hand speed was not much slower than that of the seven people.
.
After everyone had eaten and drank, Wang Shoufei chatted with the grocery store owner for a while and expressed his gratitude. Not long after, the grocery store owner said goodbye and left. Wang Shoufei sent people outside and then returned to the house. p>
Seeing Li Laigeng looking around with a detector, he shook his head helplessly and thought: From the first glance, no wealthy family lived in this place. The houses are so old and small. How can the people who live there have the money to bury them underground?
.
However, Wang Shoufei did not dampen Li Laigeng's enthusiasm, but silently watched Li Laigeng operate it. Not to mention, Li Laigeng used the metal detector in a decent manner for the first time.
At this time, Wang Yinglong quietly came to Wang Shoufei and whispered: "Brother, do you think we should go to the door again tomorrow and inform the person who gave us the phone number today that we have a metal detector?"<
/p>
When Wang Shoufei heard Wang Yinglong's words, he turned his attention away from Li Laigeng, thought for a while, and said: "This is not good. We went to inform us. There must be many people looking for us, but it will take a long time to dig for treasures.
It doesn’t matter which one we go to first. I think this way, tomorrow we will go one by one and ask, and when asked which one we want to dig, we will dig at that one, which will save us time and trouble."
Wang Yinglong nodded after hearing this. He felt that Wang Shoufei's attention was very good. He had indeed forgotten about it just now. You must know that this is Nanjing. If the order of digging first and which house is wrong,
If they accidentally offend someone, they are not something they can afford to offend.
Especially in the place where they went to dig for treasure today, everyone inside was actually a school officer. When he found out about this, Wang Yinglong was also shocked. They must know that Wang Shoufei had told them that the school officer was already in the army.
He is already a mid-level officer. Even Wang Shoufei, who has been a soldier for four years, may not have seen so many colonel officers in the army.
Wang Yinglong thought of this and asked Wang Shoufei: "Brother, why do you think there are so many school officers in that place? There may be more than when you were a soldier."
Hearing this, Wang Shoufei smiled and said: "What's so strange about this? This is the capital of the National Government. There are all kinds of government officials and senior government officials everywhere. It would be strange if there were fewer people?" p>
After Wang Yinglong listened, he asked again: "Brother, why do you think they have metal detectors? Could it be that they were responsible for what happened to Gulin Temple yesterday?"
After hearing this, Wang Shoufei thought for a while and replied: "It should be one of them, but monkey, it's fine for both of us to know about this, but don't spread it everywhere, otherwise we will offend them and we can't afford to suffer."
"After saying that, he looked at Wang Yinglong with a stern look.
Wang Yinglong saw Wang Shoufei's eyes and said seriously: "Brother, don't worry, I know what to do."
When Wang Shoufei saw Wang Yinglong's reaction, he felt relieved and nodded. He was about to say something more, but before he could open his mouth, he heard Li Laigeng's cry.
"Brother, look quickly. Is this metal detector broken? Why doesn't it sound?" After hearing this, Wang Shoufei stopped talking and walked over quickly. This is their future job. If it breaks,
Then their plan to hunt for treasures from their fellow countrymen will come to nothing. This is their chance to stay in Nanjing.
Li Laigeng saw Wang Shou flying over and said loudly: "Brother, look, this metal detector won't go off. Could it be that they gave us a broken one?"
While talking, he handed the earphones to Wang Shoufei to put on, and then used the metal detector to probe a shovel. When Wang Shoufei heard that there was really no sound, he suddenly became nervous, thinking that they would not really lie to him.
Right? After thinking about it carefully, I don’t think so. After all, I have no grudges against them, so there is no need to lie to myself.
Then he thought that there might be something wrong when he brought it back, right? Thinking of this, Wang Shoufei felt heartbroken again, so he had to suppress his thoughts and said with some frustration: "It shouldn't be the case, I used it over there.
This metal detector was fine at the time, but it must have been broken when we brought it back."
When Li Laigeng heard this, he felt very disappointed. He raised the metal detector in his hand and was about to smash it on the ground. But when he thought of the value of this thing, he had to put it down. Wang Yinglong saw it and hurriedly stepped forward and picked up the metal detector.
The detector was snatched from Li Laigeng's hand.
The sound of "Beep, beep, beep..." was transmitted from the earphones to Wang Shoufei's ears. Wang Shoufei was a little confused, why was there a sound? But he reacted after a moment, and turned to stare at Wang Yinglong's hand, or maybe it was holding a metal detector.
place.
Wang Yinglong also saw Wang Shoufei's gaze. He stared at his hand for a while, raised his hand and looked carefully. He found nothing unusual, so he asked Wang Shoufei doubtfully: "Brother, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with my hand?"
?"
Wang Shoufei saw Wang Yinglong moving again and quickly said: "Don't move."
After speaking, he walked forward, put the earphones to Wang Yinglong's ears, and said excitedly: "Listen to see if there is any sound."
After saying that, he shook the metal detector on the shovel again. Wang Yinglong's eyes lit up and he said happily: "There is really a sound. Why was there no sound just now?" After hearing this, Li Laigeng quickly took the earphones over and smiled happily. Wang Shoufei didn't want to worry about him anymore, and said to Wang Yinglong: "Monkey, take your hands away and let me see if the problem lies under your hands."
After Wang Yinglong heard this, he carefully moved his hand away. Wang Shoufei took a look and saw that there was a button underneath. The color was the same as the color of the handle. No wonder no one noticed it and didn't know what it was for.
They studied it carefully for a while and found that it was actually a switch. Li Laigeng turned red with anger and cursed. Wang Shoufei and others were also speechless. Didn't you design the switch like this so that no one can see it?
