Lu Wei Fang, a Chinese restaurant located on 167th Street in Miami's North Beach, has a large area and a rather retro décor, with a row of festive red lanterns hanging in front of the gate. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In fact, not only this restaurant, but also the shops and residents of the surrounding streets are basically Chinese, and the most conspicuous is a large comprehensive shopping mall, which is not much worse than the Wal-Mart supermarket in the city center in terms of scale.

Daily necessities, artworks, porcelain, bonsai, Chinese costumes, snacks, etc., are almost everything at a glance, and even the music played is played by the guzheng.

If it weren't for the large number of blonde and blue-eyed white people hanging around, it would be no different from the small fourth-tier cities in China.

For the first time, Lu Li knew that there was such a place in the city, so he slowly parked the dark blue Ferrari F60 in front of the restaurant, opened the car door and walked down.

It has to be said that this supercar with a unique shape attracted the attention of passers-by as soon as it appeared.

After all, although there are many sports cars on the streets of Miami, because there are no high tariffs, many cars are only one-third of the price in China, and more than one million dollars are rare, not to mention limited editions of more than three million.

Just when a hot beauty was about to come forward to talk, the Buick SUV that followed also stopped, and a gray-haired old man and two well-behaved and cute little girls stepped out of the car.

"Old Zhao, is this the restaurant, right?" Lu Li tore off his tie without any image, unbuttoned the two buttons of his shirt, and asked with a smile.

"Well, that's it. Zhao Lao nodded, and glanced directly at Qian Jun, who was in charge of driving.

The latter immediately understood, and the driver went around the back door, knowing without asking that he must have secretly sent the pig into the kitchen.

It is important to know that in the United States, it is illegal to kill poultry and livestock indiscriminately, except in rural areas, where individuals must slaughter and eat themselves, and must be sent to designated slaughterhouses for slaughter.

Of course, this law is not so strict in the process of enforcement, and generally speaking, as long as you do a hidden point so that people don't see or photograph it, the police basically don't care about it.

Standing at the door and waiting for less than two minutes, an old man in a white chef's uniform ran out with a happy face, grabbed Zhao Lao's hand and greeted: "Oh! Brother Zhao! You are really, why don't you say hello in advance, so that I can send someone to pick you up at the airport." ”

"Hey, who are we with whom! Don't make any of this! Did you see what I sent you? Hurry up and get a table of pig-killing rice, we're all still hungry." ”

The relationship between the two is obviously very good, so Zhao Lao was not polite, and immediately made a request.

"Haha! No problem! Go to the private room and sit down, and I'll show you my hand. The old man laughed and made a gesture of please.

Under his leadership, the group quickly walked through the lobby to the most internal testing box, served some juice and snacks, and then turned to leave, and brought it to the door when they went out.

Sitting down with each other, Zhao Lao took a cup and drank a sip of juice to moisten his throat, and said slowly: "How about it? You don't know this place, do you? If you want to eat real Chinese food in the United States, you have to come to a place where Chinese gather, otherwise even Chinese food has an improved taste, and you will vomit it when you eat it." ”

"Makes sense! I knew there were such authentic Chinese restaurants, so I didn't eat those Western foods. Lu Li picked up a piece of mung bean cake and stuffed it into his mouth and replied.

I don't know if it's because I'm hungry, or if I've been in the United States for too long, and I'm starting to miss everything in China, in short, he feels that this mung bean cake is extraordinarily sweet, a hundred times better than the greasy Western dessert.

"Since you don't like to eat Western food, why don't you hire a cook, with your current net worth, you shouldn't be short of this money, right?" Zhao Lao asked with a strange expression.

Lu Li smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's not a matter of money, it's that I need to fly around a lot, and there is no way to guarantee that there is a kitchen, otherwise I can cook by myself." Oh, by the way, I have a piece of metal here, please help me identify the composition. ”

As he spoke, Lu Li opened the suitcase and took out the silvery-white metal from the eruption of the Elemental Heart Volcano from the side pocket.

Because he has been very busy recently, he did not spare time to send it to a professional institution for testing, so he just took this time to ask a professional to identify.

As a person who had served in the National Geological Expedition for thirty years, Zhao Lao felt that this piece of metal was unusual as soon as he got his hand, quickly took out his eyes, began to look through it carefully, and then poked it with chopsticks.

After a full five minutes, he took off his glasses and asked with a solemn expression, "Where did this thing come from?"

"What's wrong?what is it??," Lu Li raised his eyebrows in surprise.

After knowing each other for so long, it was the first time he saw the other party show such a serious expression, as if he was holding not a piece of metal in his hand, but some kind of strategic material.

Zhao Lao took a deep breath and explained seriously: "Let me tell you the truth, although I can't be sure of all the ingredients, I can tell you that at least eighty percent of it is made up of rare metal rhenium.

Maybe you don't quite know what rhenium means, but I'll explain it to you a little bit here.

First of all, this is a rare metal that was discovered very late, with a melting point of more than 3,000 degrees Celsius and a boiling point of nearly 6,000 degrees Celsius, which was only discovered in 1925, and has very small reserves in the world, with an annual output of between 40 and 50 tons, most of which are controlled by the United States, and our country together does not exceed 240 tons.

Secondly, it is widely used in the field of high-end technology, including catalysts for the petroleum industry, electronics, aerospace, and more importantly, it is almost inseparable from this metal in the field of military engines.

Finally, I can tell you very responsibly that this thing is basically a hot potato, and it can't be circulated in large quantities in the market. ”

"Rhenium metal?!"

Lu Li had never heard of this rare metal, so he hurriedly took out his mobile phone and searched in the search engine, and in less than a second, he searched for the corresponding entry.

Maybe the price of rhenium metal is not too expensive, only more than 7,000 US dollars per kilogram, but the supply is very small, it is a real strategic material, if he dares to sell it in large quantities, eighty percent will be invited to tea by the relevant departments of the United States.

Silent!

There was a terrible silence in the private room!

The two girls seemed to feel the mood of the adults, and they lowered their heads and concentrated on eating snacks.

"Whew-"

Zhao Lao exhaled a breath of turbidity, gently tapped the table and asked, "Tell me, how many of these rhenium alloys do you have on hand?"

Lu Li rubbed his eyebrows and responded with a wry smile: "It's a lot, it's a lot, it's several times more than the total reserves of some countries. ”

"Damn! you're in a big mess this time! or ...... I'll help you contact China?" Zhao Lao hesitated and made a suggestion.

"What do you mean ......?"
