Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Stars and the Black Star
I have to say that Xin Liang's work efficiency is still very high, at noon the next day, Xu Jie called Lin Ping, and the Qi Baofeng in Hong Kong promised to meet Lin Ping, and at two o'clock in the afternoon, Xihai City Yuelan Restaurant, Xin Liang was also waiting for Lin Ping over there.
Hearing the news, Lin Ping immediately rushed over.
Yuelan Restaurant is one of the best restaurants in Xihai City, the decoration is luxurious and the consumption is high, the average person starts from six or eight hundred, the hall is more than 400 square meters, only a dozen or so card seats, all the marble table tops and leather sofas, which are very quiet and suitable for talking about things.
When Lin Ping entered the door, he saw Xin Liang facing him in the corner, and there were two people at the same table with their backs to him, which should be Qi Baofeng from Hong Kong.
Xin Liang waved his hand at Lin Ping and motioned for Lin Ping to come over.
Sitting in the position, Lin Ping saw clearly that the two people in front of him were both young people and not very old, both around twenty-seven or eighteen.
"I'll introduce you." Xin Liang pointed at Lin Ping and said, "This is Lin Ping, the meteorite you bought came out of his hand, and he also said that he wanted to see you." Lin Ping, this is the Qi Baofeng I mentioned to you, Kuo Shao from Hong Kong, you know each other. ”
The booth is not particularly large, and it seems a little spacious for four people to sit, but Xin Liang's figure is too fat, and Lin Ping, who is sitting next to him, feels a little crowded, and his body is a little outward.
"Hello, I'm Lin Ping."
"Hello, I'm Qi Baofeng, and this is my friend, Zhang Xu." Qi Baofeng pointed to the young man beside him and introduced it to Lin Ping.
The two nodded, and they knew each other.
"Is there something you're looking for me?" Qi Baofeng asked directly and straight to the point.
The waiter next to him happened to come over to ask about the service, Lin Ping ordered a cup of tea, and said to Qi Baofeng: "That's the case, I heard that you play collecting, and you have been collecting rare jade meteorites and the like recently, so I have something I want to ask you about, I wonder if you can help provide some clues?" ”
"Oh?" Qi Baofeng was slightly surprised, when it came to collecting, it was obvious that the fat man Xin Liang in front of him was an expert, if he wanted to inquire about things, it was faster to find Xin Liang directly than to find himself, Qi Baofeng didn't know what Lin Ping wanted to know, and asked: "What are you looking for me to inquire about?" ”
"Do you know Starchaser?" Lin Ping directly stated the purpose.
Qi Baofeng and Zhang Xu beside him glanced at each other, and suddenly both of them burst into smiles and said to Lin Ping, "Do you want to inquire about star chasers?" ”
Lin Ping nodded: "I have a troublesome matter on my hands, I hope to find the Star Chaser Organization and ask them for help." If you know, please give a referral, whether you want money or meteorite in terms of remuneration, it is easy to say. ”
Zhang Xu looked at Lin Ping with a strange expression, the young man in front of him really didn't look like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old young man when he spoke.
"That's a coincidence, huh." Qi Baofeng looked at Zhang Xu with a smile: "This is one of the founders of the Star Chase Organization, the Star Club. I'm here to collect meteorite this time, and it's also related to him, why don't you talk about it? ”
Lin Ping was overjoyed, he was really sleepy and met the person who sent the pillow, which was too coincidental.
"Hehe, little brother, do you have something to do with us?" Zhang Xu asked with a smile.
Lin Ping roughly told Zhang Xu about his search for Yang Tie, and after listening to it, Zhang Xu's brows furrowed tightly, and his face looked very embarrassed. Seeing Zhang Xu like this, Lin Ping also had a strange face, and he didn't know what the difficulties were.
Zhang Xu shook his head lightly and said, "Little brother, it's not that I don't want to help you in this matter, but that there are indeed difficulties." To tell you the truth, this time Baofeng and I came to Xihai City to collect meteorite iron is also a helpless move. In recent years, our Star Club has been receiving orders for various meteorites and meteorites at home and abroad, and there are almost no people doing this kind of business in China, and it is the first one in China to have such a professional degree and staffing. However, in the past two years, a foreign team has joined in, and this group of people is on a par with us in terms of technology, personnel allocation, and intelligence information, and even said that the physical fitness and equipment of the members are much higher than ours. The meteor showers or rare meteors that we have encountered in the past few years have been waiting for us to be in place. There have been many disputes and even fights between the two groups, and the situation has not improved. Later, the amount of meteorites and meteorites we could collect became smaller and smaller, but the order still had to be delivered, so there was no way to come to Xihai City to see if we could receive it. ”
Then Zhang Xu told the foreign team in detail.
It was a foreign club called Black Star, and these people were originally just interested in meteors, but later found that it was profitable, so these people gathered around the world to follow the trail of meteors. Whenever a meteor lands, it always collects meteorites and meteorites as soon as possible, and sells them to people in need, grabbing benefits from them, forming a unique business.
Later, after coming to China, I found that there were a lot of meteorite and meteorite collectors here, and the price was very high, so I began to engage in this business in China, and even transferred everyone over, and it competed with the Star Club.
Compared with the Star Club, these people's perennial experience in chasing meteors has laid a good foundation for them to track meteorites and meteorites, and they can often get the landed meteorites and meteorites faster than the Star Club, and there are special equipment to cool down the meteorites and meteorites and take things away.
In such an environment, the original Star Club had competitors in the business, and the amount of acquisition was naturally less, but the original orders were a lot, which led to a lot of conflicts between the two batches, and the Star Club's meteorite and meteorite stocks were not enough, so they had to come out to receive the goods to fill the orders.
In this way, the hope of obtaining Yang Tie from the Star Club has been disappointed.
"What if I buy it from the Black Star Club?" Lin Ping asked tentatively.
Zhang Xu shook his head directly and said, "What we do here is to take orders first and then deliver the goods." Because the amount of meteorites and meteorites produced by meteor showers is unstable, many orders are delayed for a long time, usually up to two years. Whether it is our Star Club or Black Star, there are a lot of certificates of deposit to pay, if you want to buy, you have to submit an order to them first, queue up, and it is normal to queue for a year or two. But I'm quite strange, you yourself have the means to find meteorite, why do you want to ask us to buy meteorite? ”
Lin Ping smiled awkwardly: "Actually, I picked it up when a blind cat ran into a dead mouse." And I bought meteorite mainly to find a strange meteorite, which is not very common, and I just wanted to try my luck. ”
Lin Ping's explanation was a bit far-fetched, and Zhang Xu did not continue to ask. He himself followed the meteor to find the meteorite, which is equivalent to following the map. And the young man in front of him said that he picked it up, maybe he had a special means to identify meteorite meteorite, the gap is self-evident, Zhang Xu also had some ideas about Lin Ping.
"Brother, since you want to find a special kind of meteorite, let me tell you something, do you think you are interested?" Zhang Xu asked with a smile.
"You say." Lin Ping nodded.
"That's right, a meteor shower will fall on the Gobi Desert on the Gansu side in a week."
"I'll go with you." Without waiting for Zhang Xu to finish speaking, Lin Ping agreed.
