Chapter 172: Buying and Selling
"Oops,See you again.,Jiu γγΆγ~"
At the tea house not far away, Zhou Li saw a man holding a book with a yellow cover in his hand saying hello proudly in half-baked Japanese.
Talisman...... Zhou Li couldn't help but sigh helplessly: "I can still see you anywhere." β
"That's right, that's it." Fu Ming smiled proudly, revealing his two rows of white Sensen's big teeth: "Do you want to sit?" You're one of my few customers. β
Zhou Li turned his head to look at Lu Wanshui, who was fighting with the crane machine not far away, and roughly estimated that the stack of change she grabbed could still make her brave struggle of repeated defeats last for a while.
Sitting on the top of the tea party, Zhou Li casually picked up the yellow-skinned textbook "Standard Japanese" that he put down, but he didn't expect this guy to be really learning.
He looked up in surprise at the smiling Fu Ming, looked down at the book, and asked, "Is there something wrong?" β
"Something? The milk tea here is good, and couples like to drink it here. β
"Please don't say the same as the, I'm not interested in the middle-aged beer-bellied uncle. If you're in for a treat, let's have a piece of orange juice. β
"Tsk, what a guy who picks the door, I also said that the tea money has been settled." Fu Ming sighed, waved his hand to call the waiter, pointed at Zhou Li and said, "Give this handsome guy a glass of orange juice." β
"Alright, let's talk about it." After the waiter left, Fu Ming put his hands on the table with his fingers interlocked, and said with a sigh: "Your movements during this time are really not small. β
"Normally, you wouldn't want to report me, would you?" Zhou Li raised his head and glanced at him: "I have killed a lot of people." β
"Haha, do you want to say, 'I'm not missing either?'" Fu Ming began to say a cold joke that was not funny at all: "Peace of mind, I'm a businessman, just ask if there is any valuable news." β
"Yes, the price is 50,000." Zhou Li looked down at the textbook, and said without raising his head: "USD, not RMB." β
"Tsk, you guy is darker than me!"
"For information about the two-headed vulture, you can ask somewhere else, is there anything less than 70,000 dollars?"
For a moment, Fu Ming's brows furrowed: "What did you say?" Which two-headed vulture? β
"It's the two-headed vulture that is fed and struggling with the Foundation every day, is there a second one?"
"Okay, the reserve price is 50,000, depending on the importance of the information, I will increase the price according to the classification."
"The third son of the Zhao family, Zhao Wu'an, is a member of the two-headed vulture, how much is this news worth?"
"Hiss......" Fu Ming made a cold breath sound: "I don't read much, don't lie to me, I can find it when I go back." The Zhao family did entrap two capable people, but wasn't it done by you? β
"I'm not sure which one you're talking about, but it's all done." Zhou Li glanced up at him: "Although Zhao Wu'an is dead, if you go to investigate, there should be clues to find." β
"Dead? Who kills ......" Before the talisman finished speaking, he understood, and suddenly showed a bitter smile: Who else could there be?
This guy in front of him, how many capable people have he killed in the past month?
One of them is also a member of the Two-Headed Vulture...... This guy is too capable of getting into trouble, right?
Zhou Li lowered his head and flipped through the textbook and asked, "How much do you think this price is?" β
"If a person dies, it's worthless, and there are too few clues to investigate. If it's true, it can barely be classified as a C-grade premium price, and I'm going to take a 20% cut, and you can get 63,000, and the currency is the same as you said, it's US dollars. β
"Then transfer the money after confirming it." Zhou Li casually put the book on the table, raised his hand to take the orange juice from the waiter who came over, and put it on the table in front of him.
Getting a 20% cut, Fu Ming seems to be in a good mood: "It seems that every time I see you, there are good things." β
"I mean, do you really need money so much?" Zhou Li raised his eyes and looked at this guy: "The money you make is enough for you to spend your whole life, right?" β
Fu Ming just smiled and looked up at the street scene on the road: "If you have money, who will be too little?" β
Zhou Li could only sigh helplessly: "You guy...... Sooner or later, you will lose your life because of greed for money. β
"Maybe." Fu Ming laughed, causing some displeasure from several couples in the seats not far away.
lowered his voice, and sighed: "The Zhao family is considered to have stopped?" mobilized such a huge amount of funds, instigated so many relationships openly and secretly, made the backstage of the Li family difficult to protect, and made the Li family brothers miserable. Now that the entire 'business plan' has finally started to operate, it is just around the corner to crush the Li family...... He suddenly stopped again. It's a shame. β
"It's a shame for you." Zhou Li glanced at him: "Businessmen are like this, after finding that they can't make money, or the gains outweigh the losses, they will choose to give up." β
The loss of the two recruited abilities can make the Zhao family feel the pain of the skin, and now that Zhao Wu'an is dead again, the shadow left by the two-headed vulture is enough to make the Zhao family unstable under the search of the 'relevant departments'.
It's really powerful to be rich, but if you want to swallow Shangyang, it's not an overnight thing. If Li Zijin had deliberately tried to obstruct them, they would have to lose at least 70 percent of their funds to be able to accomplish their goal after three years.
By that time, the policy operation has already been completed, and the relevant laws and regulations have already drawn attention to this city near Zhonghai, and the business plan that was supposed to take the lead will become a joke.
The intricacies involved are enough to write a 100,000-word analysis report, according to the standard specification - almost 616 words per page, and at least 164 pages with the cover.
And the expression of political power of the 'relevant departments' only needs an official document.
A total of one hundred and sixty-five pages of documents full of costs were finally composed of a price that made the Zhao family gain more than they lost.
It's just that behind this, Zhou Li felt that there seemed to be some other reasons at play, he tried to find it, but he couldn't grasp it, so he could only give up.
"But then again, since the Zhao family is so energetic, why didn't they do it before Li Xingsheng died?"
Zhou Li finally remembered this question.
Fu Ming laughed and lit the cigarette at the corner of his mouth, he had just investigated the whole matter last night, and finally got an answer from an agent in the capital that could answer Zhou Li's doubts.
The reason is very simple, when Li Xingsheng was still alive, the relevant development policies had not yet been decided...... If the Zhao family had the ability of this unpredictable prophet, they would have become another Rothschild long ago.
After listening to the explanation of the talisman, Zhou Li couldn't help but laugh in a low voice, and shook his head helplessly: what he was thinking about was still a little complicated after all.
However, there was one last thing he had to figure out.
He raised his head and looked at the talisman and asked seriously: "The alchemists in China who can repair the 'alchemy armament', can you help me contact them?" β
"Repair?" Fu Ming glanced up at him: "Is the 'burner' broken?" β
Recalling the remains of the stake in the black box under his bed, Zhou Li sighed: "Broken into hundreds of pieces." β
"It's all broken like that, how can you fix it?" Fu Ming couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "Do you think that the alchemy armament can be used by casually putting together and dipping it with glue?" β
"Well, you don't have to remind me how cruel reality is. You can say if there is any. β
"There are indeed a lot of alchemy workshops in China, at least five or six, among which the craftsmanship is as outstanding as the 'Longyuan' workshop, and it is said that it has mastered sixteen highest-level runes, but ......"
Fu Ming paused for a moment: "The 'Burning Stake' is a product of the 'Master' workshop, using their unique alchemy circuits and runes, and if it is broken like this, I am afraid that only they can repair it." β
He looked at Zhou Li sympathetically: "Can you go to Switzerland?" By the way, if it is broken to that extent, the cost of repairing it is not cheaper than buying a new one, and the cost of the best alchemy armament like the stake rack, I don't need to remind you, right? β
Zhou Weizhong's expectations were once again extinguished by the cruel reality, and he could only sigh helplessly: "Then I'd better go home and get glue and put it together to make a souvenir." β
"There is no end to the road, don't give up. At the beginning of next year, the 'Taiyi Ring' exchange meeting organized by many parties will be launched in Zhonghai, and when you try your luck, maybe there is still hope." β
"Lend you good words." Zhou Li picked up the glass of orange juice that hadn't been touched and stood up, and smiled a little helplessly: "I have to go first, the little girl is impatient." β
As soon as he took two steps, he turned his head to the talisman who picked up the textbook again and said, "By the way, this one in your hand is a new version." But for beginners learning grammar, the old version will be better. β
"What? Legacy? Fu Ming's smug expression suddenly stopped: "What old version?" Hey, don't go...... Feed! Feed! β
After finishing speaking, Zhou Li once again left the talisman with a puzzled face - helping others was happy to add to people's blockages, and even his mood was a lot happier.
"Why is it so long? It's slow. β
Not far away, Lu Qiaoshui, who was waiting a little impatiently, complained, it seems that this time the battle with the crane machine also ended in failure.
"I'm sorry, I have something to talk about with a friend, so I'll give you this as an apology." Zhou Li smiled and put the orange juice in his hand into Lu Qiaoshui's hand.
"Let's go, where are we going next?" Zhou Li asked.
Habitually holding Zhou Li's hand, Lu Xiaoshui walked to the front, and a smile appeared on his face again: "Go to the front, I heard that there is a discount for Christmas today." β
Pulled by Lu Qiaoshui, Zhou Li followed lazily, but with a smile on his face, he let the little girl who had been waiting for a long time pull him forward.
"Go slower, go slower, and the mall won't run away with long legs."
Hearing his voice, Lu Qianshui's smile was vaguely stunned.
Zhou Li, girls' thoughts, why don't you always understand?
It's not the mall that is afraid of running away...... It's you.
