Chapter 253: Accidents
Although this business of buying and selling copper coins does not seem to have a direct relationship with the current situation of the Cheng family, it can be understood after thinking about it carefully: the people who do business in these stores are not the Cheng family's own people, there are people everywhere in the world, and these people are not saying that they can come in casually, the Cheng family is bound to investigate them, and it must be the reliable business that the Cheng family will put this business in.
However, now that the Cheng family has changed the person in charge, the situation does not seem to be very optimistic, and Zheng Zheng wants to know how optimistic the situation is. How much control does the new head of the Cheng family, Cheng Fang, have over the Cheng family, and is there chaos within the Cheng family?
This can be seen from this business.
If there is indeed a greasy thing hidden in this business of buying and selling copper coins, and it is indeed the store that has done tricks, it can only mean that the Cheng family is already a mess, and the Cheng family has lost most of its control over the Cheng family, or that his personal prestige is not high enough. Only in this way can the people who are in charge of inspecting these settled businesses dare to collude with this kind of hidden business and put this business into the Hecheng Building.
In other words, this is just another test of Zheng Zheng's Cheng family.
Although Zheng Zheng was quite awkward in his heart to do things for the Zheng family, this thing was what Zheng Yonghe wanted him to do, and Zheng Zheng had no reason not to help. In terms of relationship, Zheng Yonghe can be said to be his ally within the Zheng family, if this matter can be done beautifully, and if he can dig up as much news as possible that the Cheng family wants to hide, then Zheng Yonghe, who has obtained more information than others, will naturally have an advantage in information, and can transform it into other advantages.
The strength of allies is the strength of oneself, Zheng Zheng understands this truth.
As for the 150,000 yuan to buy copper coins, it should be the capital to be spent to do this. If you can figure out what the situation of the Cheng family is through this matter, then the money is too well spent. Taking a step back, even if the 150,000 yuan is lost, this is really not a big number for Zheng Zheng's current net worth, and Zheng Zheng is willing to do it.
A hand reached into the jar, and all that was within reach were cold copper coins. I can't see it at this eye, even if I can touch it with my hand, but some copper coins have small differences that I can't touch with my hands at all, but just such a difference determines whether this copper coin is the best or ordinary, and it is basically unreliable to touch it by hand, and it is no different from vain effort.
casually touched a handful, and Zheng Zheng took out a handful of copper coins. After putting the copper coin on the balance scale, Zheng Zheng didn't look carefully at the copper coin on the balance scale, but reached into the jar and took out a handful of copper coins.
After taking the copper coin back and forth three times, the weight displayed on the balance scale was exactly one kilogram, so Zheng Zheng stopped taking it.
Since Zheng Zheng took out the first copper coin, the onlookers next to him stretched their necks one by one and stared at the copper coins on the scale, each pondering in their hearts. However, this handful of copper coins was placed on the weighing pan, and what could be seen at a glance was only about a dozen or twenty pieces, and it was not thorough, so even if the onlookers on the side looked at it, they did not speak.
After grabbing the four copper coins, the gold-chained young man looked at the scales, nodded to Zheng Zheng and said, "It's exactly one kilogram...... Do you want to look at it here or take it away? I have to make it clear to you first, if you look at these coins here and want to sell them to us after you have read them, we can take them, but if you take them and look at them and turn around and sell them to us, we really can't take them. After all, there is no mark on this copper coin, which is also a concern for us, you have to be considerate. ”
"Reasonable. Zheng Zheng nodded.
Seeing that Zheng Zheng agreed, he came down. The young man with the gold chain smiled, beckoned the people on the side to bring Zheng Zheng a small table and a small stool, and asked him to start selecting copper coins.
The onlookers on the side were also itching, and they all wanted to see if there were any real copper coins in the copper coins that were bought back for 150,000 yuan.
The copper coin was just placed on the table, and Zheng Zheng didn't have time to look at the copper coin on the table, but the mobile phone rang.
When he took out his mobile phone, Zheng Zheng frowned. It wasn't someone else who called, it was Xie Miao.
Zheng Zheng had told Xie Miao to pick up the antiques when he left Huayin City before, and specially instructed her to call herself after some of the antiques were put in the warehouse.
This call came too coincidentally, it was too early to come and late to call at this time, but I couldn't answer it yet, and I couldn't talk to Xie Miao about these things in front of so many people. He nodded at the gold-chained young man and said, "Put these copper coins up for me, and I'll take them away." ”
While speaking, Zheng Zheng answered the phone here.
The young man with the golden chain looked at Zheng Zheng, hesitated for a moment, and said, "If you take it away, we won't buy it back......"
Zheng Zheng waved his hand at him again and again, signaling that he didn't need to say much, and was talking on the phone: "Hey, what's wrong?"
"Where are you now, why are you so messy?" Xie Miao wondered.
Zheng Zheng coped, and while taking the bag full of copper coins handed over by the young man with the gold chain, he said, "Ah...... No, I'm shopping. ”
After taking the bag, Zheng Zheng got up and walked out, and the gold-chained young man behind him greeted him a little uneasily: "No...... If you're gone, we're not going to retreat......."
Without the time to greet the young man with the golden chain behind him, Zheng Zheng walked out of the crowd in a few steps, and walked a few steps closer, finally finding a corner with few people. Xie Miao on the other end of the phone asked curiously, "What are you buying?" It sounds like I'm delaying you from doing your business. ”
"Hi...... That's it...... Don't talk about that. Zheng Zhengxin said that this phone call is too valuable, a phone call is worth 150,000 yuan, but it is estimated that it is difficult to find a phone call with such a high value in the world. He asked, "Did you get something?"
Xie Miao said: "I got it, and I shipped it back and forth many times...... Now most of them are in the safe deposit box opened by the bank, and I have found twenty antiques according to your request, and these antiques are now in the warehouse with me. ”
"That's good...... You leave the antiques in the warehouse now, lock the door and go directly, don't stop, don't stay, I'll tell my people to go to the warehouse to get something. Zheng Zheng looked at the time and said, "It's twelve o'clock...... You have to leave the warehouse by 12:15, and that's for your good. ”
Xie Miao grinned: "It's quite painful......, isn't it?" I listen to you. ”
Hanging up the phone, Zheng Zheng looked at the crowd of people around him, shook his head, and went downstairs with the bag of copper coins. There are a lot of people here, and there are some things that are really inappropriate to talk about here.
After walking out of the Hecheng Building, Zheng Zheng found a corner where no one was there and called Bai Peng: "Old Bai...... Are you busy?"
Bai Peng's side was quite lively, he heard Zheng Zheng's voice, said "wait a minute" and stopped talking. After waiting for a while, the phone became quiet, and Bai Peng said: "Eat with those buyers, didn't you say that the black market will be open in the next few days, I'll contact these buyers first......"
"Well, down to business. Zheng Zheng said: "The antiques to be used for the opening of the market have arrived. Now that I took you to see the antique warehouse before, you can take someone over and take them away now. The warehouse is locked, just pry the lock. ”
"Okay. ”
Bai Peng agreed, and hesitated: "But didn't you bring this over...... I'm ...... Not quite right, right?"
"Nothing out of place. Zheng Zheng smiled: "I'm not in Huayin City now, and I can't catch up with the opening of the black market." You can pick up the antiques yourself. ”
"You're in ...... now Ahem, okay. Bai Peng originally wanted to ask where Zheng Zheng was now, but as soon as he said that, he realized that he had asked too much, so he stopped talking and said, "If you have something to do, you can be busy, and I will deal with the affairs of the black market with Wang Kang." ”
Zheng Zheng also smiled when he heard this, and said: "Okay, the black market matter will be handed over to you and Wang Kang to deal with, and you can discuss the trivial matters, and if you can't discuss a way, give me a call." ”
Hanging up the phone, Zheng Zheng felt a little emotional. He couldn't be clearer about what Bai Peng was thinking. When the two of them were in a cooperative relationship before, Bai Peng could have no scruples when he spoke, but now that Bai Peng has merged into the Zhengzi black market, the positions of the two have been divided into high and low, and Bai Peng himself has to be careful about whether he speaks unruly.
But in this way, it seems that the two of them are unfamiliar. But Zheng Zheng had no intention of comforting Bai Peng, nor did he plan to use nonsense such as "everyone is a friend, don't be so restrained" to make his face look better. As a superior, this is something Zheng Zheng must face. No matter how hypocritical Zheng Zheng and Bai Peng are, they can't change the fact that there is a difference between respect and inferiority in the positions of the two.
With a slight sigh in his heart, Zheng Zheng looked at the pocket of copper coins in his hand and shook his head. It's a lot of effort to pick this pocket of copper coins, and you can't really finish picking them in an hour or two.
It just so happened that it was also a meal now, and Zheng Zheng was also a little hungry. As soon as he pondered, he found a nearby restaurant and asked for a private room.
After the food was ready, Zheng Zheng said hello to the waiter and asked them not to come in if they were fine, and then poured the bag of copper coins on the table.
The identification of copper coins is simple and simple, and it is troublesome to say. Because there are a lot of copper coins that are not of high value, experienced people can probably count them at a glance, but the trouble is because there are many excellent copper coins that are different from ordinary copper coins in some subtleties, and they really can't be seen if you don't look carefully.
Looking at these copper coins one by one, it is also quite painstaking.
However, this is really not a big deal for Zheng Zheng, if it is in the Hecheng Building, it will really take effort, but Zheng Zheng now has a convenient way to save trouble.
