Chapter 18: The Money Comes
Early morning.
Jiang Ning carried a bag on his back and packed a few golden beans.
Xue Yuantong sat at the door of his house playing with his mobile phone, laughing from time to time, like a fool.
"What are you looking at?" Jiang Ning asked.
"Brush it, it's funny, the landlord hopes that everyone will give him a little temperament, and then netizens sent all kinds of spoof pictures." Xue Yuantong was about to laugh silly.
When Jiang Ning heard her, he understood that he had seen this kind of post in the post bar before, and it was really funny.
At this time in 2013, the post bar is still the hottest community, and it does not show any decline.
There are also a series of unique bars in various fields, such as the one where the anglers gather.
The symbiosis of countless fields has created absurd, funny, and magical chaos.
It's a pity that later, due to a series of operational problems, the talents of Tieba left one after another and went to major websites, and they were no longer in the grand occasion of the year.
Now that he suddenly heard the name of the post bar, Jiang Ning actually felt a little melancholy and nostalgia.
"I'm going to take a trip to the city, do you have anything to bring?" Jiang Ning pushed the mountain bike, and he was going to exchange for some gold.
"No, you can go." Xue Yuantong wanted to buy some snacks, but her pocket money was gone.
Jiang Ning rode along the dam towards the city, and his gold could not stand up to consideration, so it was best to find a way like a pawn to cash out.
It just so happened that Jiang Ning knew about a pawn shop.
In his senior year in his previous life, he came to work in Yuzhou, and a colleague picked up an ancient coin and searched it on the Internet, worth more than 600,000 yuan.
Then I went to the pawn shop, and the boss was a woman of thirty-five or sixteen, and when she saw the ancient coin, she looked at it twice, and told her colleague that it was worthless.
My colleague didn't believe it at all, so he turned on his mobile phone and pointed to the auction information on the Internet to show her, and the highest one was auctioned for more than 800,000 yuan.
The ancient coin was exactly the same as the one he had in his hand.
The proprietress smiled and told him some inside stories, saying that these auction houses are all deceptive, if you really take the coins to auction, they will first charge you an appraisal fee, about a few thousand yuan, and then there is a similar fee for sending the auction, and after you pay the fee, sign the contract, okay, start the auction, and then the auction is lost, and the ancient coins are returned to you, but the fees you paid before will not be refunded.
Many auction houses are deceiving people with this routine, and my colleagues still don't believe it after hearing it, and then they really went to the auction house, and the performance of those auction houses is almost exactly the same as what the boss said, so he believed it.
So the colleague said this as a joke in the office, and when he talked about it, he also showed the ancient coins to everyone, jokingly saying that if it wasn't for the proprietress, he would face a fortune of seven or eight hundred thousand, I'm afraid he would really get on it, and then give the auction house a pit, for this, he also went to thank the proprietress later.
After Jiang Ning heard it, he took it to heart, he still remembered the name of the auction house.
The proprietress used her own façade, which was opened many years ago.
According to Jiang Ning's guess, at this point in time, I'm afraid it already exists.
After being told by a colleague, it can be seen that the boss's mind is not bad, otherwise she may be a colleague.
However, Jiang Ning is not worried, he is an immortal cultivator, and his possession is far beyond the ability of ordinary people, even with his current means, if he is willing to trample on the rules, it will be easy to get a few million.
It's just that he cherishes his current life and doesn't want to destroy it.
But if someone else cheats him, with Jiang Ning's means, revenge is nothing more than a casual matter.
Therefore, Jiang Ning did not look ahead, if there were young people secretly playing small tricks, Jiang Ning promised to let them know what an immortal cultivator was.
Jiang Ning rode all the way to the place where the pawnshop was, the signboard of the pawnshop was not conspicuous, Jiang Ning's eyesight was amazing, and he found it at a glance.
The pawn shop is not big, only one storefront, with a signboard that says real estate, cars, watches, jewelry, mortgages, followed by a string of phone numbers.
Jiang Ning parked the mountain bike at the door, locked it, and then carried the bag on his back, opened the glass door, and a coolness came, and the air conditioner was turned on inside.
He opened the translucent plastic curtain, and a woman of twenty-seven or eighteen sat at the table, dressed in black overalls, lipstick on her lips, and holding a mouse in one hand, looking this way.
"Excuse me, what's the matter with you?" Shao Shuangshuang looked at the little boy in front of him and asked.
Jiang Ning pinched the golden bean casually:
"Do you collect gold?"
Shao Shuangshuang noticed the gold in Jiang Ning's hand, and his attitude became positive:
"Yes, please take a seat here."
She pointed to the bench next to her, got up and went to the water dispenser to pour Jiang Ning a glass of water, and then sat on the bench opposite Jiang Ning across the coffee table.
"My surname is Shao, you can call me Sister Shao, may I ask your surname?"
"Jiang Ning." Jiang Ning disdains to hide it, and in modern society, unless he completely changes his appearance, it is difficult to hide his identity when there are cameras everywhere.
From the moment he stepped into this room, he swept the room with his divine sense, and noticed the camera in the upper right corner, in addition to that, there was a pinhole camera hidden in the air conditioning socket.
"You take a look first." Jiang Ning put down the golden bean.
Shao Shuangshuang opened the drawer under the coffee table, took out a work box, put on gloves, looked at the golden beans, and pinched them with her fingers, and after determining the texture, she said:
"It's gold, is there an invoice and identification?"
Jiang Ning shook his head.
Shao Shuangshuang understood, and then said:
"I understand what you mean, if you don't go through the procedure, the price will be slightly lower than the market price, and the purity of gold is not too high."
"How much does it cost?" Jiang Ning didn't want to talk nonsense.
"The international gold price is 310, yours this, tentatively 270, go cash." Shao Shuangshuang added:
"I need to test the purity, is that okay?"
270…… Jiang Ning didn't know anything about this business, the interlacing was like a mountain, he couldn't figure out the specifics, but he was actually quite satisfied, slightly higher than he expected.
"Let's test them together." He took out six golden beans and placed them on the coffee table in turn.
Shao Shuangshuang glanced at Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning's face remained unchanged, he relied on the gold he got by himself, and he did not steal and rob, but dug it up, if he waited until many years later, the house was rebuilt, and the gold would be found, causing robbery and bloodshed, and now he used it, to a certain extent, it was a good deed.
Next, Jiang Ning saw that Shao Shuangshuang used several detection methods, such as volume measurement and weighing, and also used a pair of delicate scissors to divide the golden bean into two to make sure that there was no filler in it.
After a long time, Shao Shuangshuang pointed to the numbers on the scale:
"Seven golden beans, weighing a total of 152g, at a price of 270, a total of 41,000 and 40, I will give you a whole whole, 41,100."
"No problem, right?"
"Okay." Jiang Ning nodded.
Shao Shuangshuang put away the gold, put it in front of Jiang Ning, and said, "Wait a minute." ”
She twisted her thin waist and went to the back compartment, and when she came out again, she held a black bag in her hand and checked it with a machine in front of Jiang Ning.
After the transaction was confirmed, a pile of cash was all packed into Jiang Ning's schoolbag.
Now mobile payment is not popular, basically cash-based, although there are a lot of them, but he is not afraid of losing, no pickpocket can avoid his senses, steal his money.
"It's a pleasure to work with." Shao Shuangshuang showed a smile, he had been in a pawn shop for a few years, and she had been in contact with all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, Jiang Ning looked very young, but there was an indescribable calmness on his body, and ordinary adults did not have this temperament at all.
That's why she's willing to do this business.
Jiang Ning waved his hand, pushed the door and left, he was going to go shopping now.
