Section 39: How to play if you are rich

The most luxurious meal on the island, the Palm Hotel, four guests plus a drunk, "Mr. Bell, I'm sorry just now, my brother is like this, he likes to play tricks on people, but he has no malicious intent, he didn't mean to get Mr. Cole drunk, the king is magnatable, it's too much, why do you drink as soon as you come up, see that Mr. Cole is drunk, apologize quickly." ”

After acting, Bell knew that he had fallen into the trap of the other party, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "I can't blame Mr. Wang, it's my brother who can't drink enough, and I'll tell you the truth, there is indeed something wrong with my boat, and if you can't pay a deposit, it will be difficult for me to take you to sea." ”

Liu Yuexi gently shook the wine glass, sniffed it, and took a sip, "Captain Bell is too worried, since we choose you, how can we be so casual, after all, in the treacherous silver sea, everyone's fate is in your hands, we know that you have recently spent a lot of money because of your marriage, the housing prices on the satellite islands are not cheap, and those failed investments, your financial situation is very bad, men, start a family, give women what they want, this is the husband's duty, I appreciate you, Especially since you are the only captain I know of who has been to the Whale Sea and come back alive. ”

"What are you going to do?" Bell blurted out alertly.

Liu Yuexi fixed her mind, "Go to the mainland of the Lost Continent." ”

Bell shook his head, "It's not possible at the moment, the Storm Ocean only provides an opportunity to go there once every four years, and the farthest can only reach Ludland, except for the local Zan indigenous tribes who are willing to exchange goods, it is impossible for the scattered fleet to enter the mainland from those tribes, there is a quota for entering the mainland from there, the Zan people hate a large number of outsiders, and the quota is in the hands of the island owner, even if all this is feasible, you need to wait another two years." ”

Yuexi smiled and said: "Two years, it's too long, I don't want to go anywhere, in fact, from the map, it is a long way to go from the storm ocean, and the landing site is not good, the south of the lost continent is full of mountains, there are few ethnic groups, and it takes a year to enter the real hinterland of the mainland." There is no development value at all, so why not land on the north side, which is the core plot of the Lost Continent. ”

Liu Yuexi said a few words inadvertently, Bell was shocked, who is this person sacred, he actually knows so much about the situation of the Lost Continent, and there is a lot of information in it that even Bell himself doesn't know, has he been there? "Mr. Liu knows really specifically, but it is still impossible, the key is the problem of the chart, after going to the extreme northern island, the star clock can not play a role, the horror of the whale sea is not only those huge incredible monsters, the most deadly is the disorientation, the compass is completely out of order, relying on inertial navigation can last up to three days, but it takes at least six days to cross the whale sea, and once the last three days are strayed into the windless zone or midnight zone, everything is over."

Bell's answer made Yuexi very satisfied, "Sure enough, he is a person who has been to the depths of the Whale Sea and returned safely." ”

Bell shook his head, "It was luck, we met a narwhal, we went to eight boats, and only one came back, so it's not a safe return." ”

Yuexi took out an object, "Let's see if you can increase the possibility if you have these." Bell took the small notebook given by Liu Yuexi and flipped through it, Bell's expression suddenly became serious and excited, "Where did you get the baby, I have never seen the star map and nautical chart in this area." ”

Liu Yuexi didn't want to grind more, and directly threw out her thoughts, "You don't have to worry about this, if Captain Bell is willing to cooperate, I have more surprises for you, how can a good fast wind be enough, we need at least one fleet, three ships, I will provide the funds, you are responsible for recruiting people, things."

After the profit, I will divide you in two. How many good things are in the Lost Continent, you should know better than I am. ”

Bell was still hesitating, "The island owner won't agree, and the Zan are very powerful." ”

"Don't worry, how to get the owner of the island to agree is my business, after landing, you can stay on the ship and wait to count the money."

Bell is still very hesitant, Liu Yuexi is a little impatient, he still has a lot of things to solve, what's the matter with this man who broke into the sea, why is he so timid, oh yes, he remembered one thing, snapped out a bag of beads, "Such a big thing, you should really think about it, just go home once in the past few days, and discuss it with your family, I know that the women on the sea in the south are all amorous, and they are particularly loyal, and they are a good match for sailors, but there is a bad problem, if a man goes home and doesn't bring back money." It's a small thing to sleep on the floor, don't shirk it, go back and reunite with your family, and then think about it, I think you'll agree. ”

After the banquet, Liu Yuexi specially sent someone to send the two back, and she also went back to the Purple Cherry Blossom Hotel, and the big head Chen asked: "Brother Yue, what if he still doesn't agree?" ”

"I have already saluted the soldiers today, if you don't agree, you will tie up his wives and force him to agree, I have seen my picture, where is there a reason to let him leave, let him see his wife, I forgot to mention it just now, the women here are not only beautiful, but also very strong, very suitable for the environment of Yinhai, he will agree, okay, rest early, there will be busy tomorrow."

The next day, the island's largest timber trading house came to a strange guest who had never seen before, he looked around, did not ask, did not inquire, did not leave for most of the day, which attracted the attention of the shopkeeper, while letting a few guys try him, "This guest, you have been watching for a long time, what do you need, we can introduce to you, our walrus wood industry is the industry of the island owner Lock, the reputation is absolutely guaranteed, what kind of wood do you need, we have it." ”

The stranger wore glasses, "Really?" ”

"That's nature."

"Okay, I want more than ten years of sea snake wood, and I can also have a heart wood."

As soon as the man heard that he wanted this kind of wood, he immediately invited the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper asked respectfully: "Dare to ask this guest officer what he wants these two kinds of wood for." ”

The glasses were very impatient, "Of course it's laying rune dark tracks, why are you afraid that I will buy it privately, then, this is the purchase permit quota book of the Wangjing Provincial Government." After speaking, a document was placed in front of the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper looked at it, yo, it was true, and the big customer said respectfully: "Don't blame the guests, these two kinds of wood are officially controlled, and we are also careful. ”

"My surname is Liu, what about things." A few guys brought two samples, glasses Liu squatted down, first carefully looked at the grade and diameter grade on the log, set aside a circle of bark and rubbed it, and skillfully cut a small section to check the texture, "This sea snake wood is not bad, twelve-year-old, the treatment is good, there is no stupid to bake, it is to use animal oil to seep out the water after the sun, it is quite elegant, not bad." Don't take out this thornwood and be embarrassed, put it away. ”

The shopkeeper knows that he is an expert at a glance, the processing of sea snake wood is completely different from that of ordinary wood, which is costly and labor-intensive, and the animal oil will also make different adjustments according to the requirements of customers. Then he asked more and more respectfully: "I don't know how many of these sea snake wood are needed by the guests?" ”

Glasses Liu Yi stretched out his hand, "Five hundred? "Five thousand?"

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Liu Du shook his head, "Fifty thousand, but I buy it in batches, and you can't get so many goods at one time, so let's start with 20,000." However, this animal oil must be based on our recipe, and there can be no bad pools. ”

The shopkeeper was excited, "I don't know how you are going to pay." ”

Glasses Liu is also not polite, "The first payment with beads, according to the line price, forty beads a first-class six-inch diameter, five inches according to thirty-three beads, as for the final payment, I came out this time, I didn't bring too many beads, but I want to deal with your firm to goods, I don't know if it is possible." ”

The shopkeeper was a little unhappy when he heard this, and he made a big deal for a long time to exchange the goods, and the oil and water could be discounted, "It can be, but don't hide it from the guests, our business range is very wide, but if you barter the goods, we will first press one percent of the price of your items, unless your goods are very popular." ”

Glasses Liu smiled and took out two things, "You give me the palm of your hand, I will barter with this thing, how much do you press." ”

Yo, good thing, the shopkeeper's eyes are straight, "Quick, go and call the big shopkeeper, this matter is a bit big, I can't call the shots alone, but you can rest assured, this kind of play is rare for us, and it will not press you at all, and the price is guaranteed to satisfy you." The shopkeeper rubbed the two beautiful jade snail shells in his hand, he couldn't put it down, there is no petrochemical industry in this world, the jade snail is light and hard, and it will dissolve at a high temperature of 500 degrees, it can be formed again, it is the best plastic material, widely used, and the market is a hot item.

The big shopkeeper didn't hear the news for a while, such a good thing, no one dared to slack off, and finally finalized, at the price of one snail and two beads to reach a deal, the eyes Liu and the other party signed a contract, and told him to mix animal oil according to the formula on his list, don't make a mistake, and also wrote this on the contract, the shopkeeper nodded again and again. Glasses Liu took out a cashier's check and paid a deposit of 80,000 beads, and repeatedly instructed the two shopkeepers not to make a mistake about the animal oil, until the two shopkeepers confirmed it, and then left with peace of mind.

In the store, the shopkeeper asked the shopkeeper for credit, "If this big deal is done, you can help me recommend it." ”

The shopkeeper was also very happy, "Naturally, your credit is indispensable, go and do it, the animal oil is blended according to the requirements of others, and I will transfer the supply of goods from each branch of the sea snake wood, and give you the best one." ”

Glasses Liu went out for several laps, saw that no one was following him, and stepped into the Purple Cherry Blossom Hotel, "Master Yue, everything is done." ”

"Well, they took the recipe for beast oil?"

"Well, the contract is clearly written, if there is anything but mistakes, pay them to death."

"Uncle Liu has worked hard, and the little nephew has thanked his uncle first."

"It should be, the things of the Liu family, it is appropriate to contribute, and the timber business is the old business of our Liu family."
