Chapter 11: Gold
About ten minutes passed, Chen Meng heard movement in the grass next to him, only to see a big mouse coming out of it, and there was a pale yellow, fist-sized thing in his mouth.
Chen Meng didn't really see it, and he didn't know what it was.
"Squeak!"
The big rat jumped out of the grass and threw the thing at Chen Meng.
Bang!
The golden thing smashed to the ground, shattering all the old tiles.
Chen Meng was taken aback, what did this dead mouse want to do.
"Squeak!"
The big mouse screamed again, and he got to the golden thing and pushed Chen Meng with his paws.
Chen Meng understood, this meaning was given to me, is it to thank me for saving my life just now?
You big mouse, what are you doing so politely.
He squatted down, and curiously picked up the golden thing, not to mention that it was quite heavy, at least three or four catties.
With the light of the street lamp in the distance, Chen Meng gradually changed his face after looking at it a few times.
This thing is a piece of gold!
His little heart was fluttering, especially now that he was desperately short of money, how much was this piece of gold worth. In his previous life, he remembered that the price of gold was more than 300 per gram. His mother always wanted a gold bracelet, which was only more than 30 grams, but it cost more than 10,000 yuan. So when my mother went to the mall, she looked at it several times and was discouraged. At that time, he also vowed to wait for graduate school to earn money, and the first thing he did after getting his salary was to buy a gold bracelet for his mother.
"Squeak!"
The big mouse screamed again, and Chen Meng looked up, only to see that he had disappeared into the grass again.
Chen Meng reacted at this time, and regretted it a little.
This big mouse is definitely the second local tyrant he knows besides Tang Wenjing, and he is also generous, but you said what are you doing so fast, and you can also leave a contact information.
Fat sheep!
Chen Meng secretly labeled the big mouse, and then he waited in the same place for another twenty minutes, but he didn't see the big mouse and then turned back, it seemed that he was really gone.
When I returned home, my mother heard the sound of the door and hurriedly walked out of the house in her nightgown.
"Son, I stewed chicken soup for you in the pot, go drink it. ”
"Oh, thank you, Mom. ”
Chen Meng walked into the kitchen, lifted the lid of the saucepan, and found that it was a whole hen inside.
Mother, I really have a heart.
"Mom, do you want a gold bracelet?" Chen Meng asked casually as he drank the chicken soup.
With a piece of gold, it seems that it is not impossible to make a bracelet for my mother by taking out dozens of grams.
It's just that I lost a lot of money in vain, and it's really heartbreaking.
The old mother looked at Chen Meng a little strangely: "Didn't your father give me a gold bracelet when he celebrated Valentine's Day last month." It's just your dad's picky goods, and I send this every Valentine's Day, and this is the fourth. ”
Chen Meng was dumbfounded, and the chicken soup almost squirted out.
When did my father become so broad, he can give a gold bracelet every year, is my family actually very rich.
After drinking the chicken soup, Chen Meng hurriedly returned to the house, opened his mobile phone and checked the gold price.
Suddenly, he was dumbfounded.
The current price of gold is only 16 yuan a gram.
In other words, a gold bracelet of thirty grams is at best five hundred yuan, no wonder his father, who picks the door, can afford it.
"Brother Mouse, you're not authentic!" Chen Meng said with some disappointment.
Originally, he thought that this piece of gold would be worth five or six hundred thousand yuan, but as long as he made a move, the number of pages turned in the three courses was more than enough, who knew that the price of gold was outrageously low now.
Gold is no longer a luxury, it is almost an ornament.
He looked it up again and found out why.
As the area of the earth expanded tenfold, there were many gold discoveries, and there were many gold resources in the flood, all of which caused the price of gold to plummet.
If it weren't for the need for gold on the refining tool, the price would have fallen several times.
In the end, he secretly found the scale at home, the kind that started to weigh 5kg, stood up and weighed himself, and weighed it with a gold nugget, and found that the approximate weight of gold was 2.2 kg.
This piece of gold should actually be regarded as dog's head gold, but the dog's head gold in this world has no collection value, and can only be sold according to the gold content.
Assuming that the gold content is 70%, it should be worth 24640 in theory, but in reality, it is impossible to sell so much, after all, others have to refine, and it also takes a fee to find someone to sell.
Therefore, Chen Meng estimated that what could really reach him was just over 20,000 yuan.
"No matter how small the mosquito is, it is meat, and 20,000 yuan is a lot, so people should be content. Chen Meng comforted himself.
It's just that how to sell this piece of dog's head gold and sell it directly to the gold store? This is okay, but although the price of gold has dropped, because it is still a refining material needed for refining, it also needs to be filed for sale.
Gold now is a bit like oil in the past, and you can't buy and sell it privately.
Chen Meng thought about the people he knew for a long time, and in the end he could only think of Mo Xiaoyi, Mo Xiaoyi could get the No. 1 oral liquid of life that was not available on the market, obviously there should be a channel in this regard.
According to his observation, this Senior Mo Xiaoyi is also quite reliable.
He made a decision, and he didn't hesitate, and directly sent a message to Mo Xiaoyi.
"Senior, are you here, I have a piece of gold in my hand, passed down from my ancestors, can you sell it for me?" Chen Meng casually told a lie.
didn't let Chen Meng wait for a long time, and there was a reply there.
"Send me a picture and I'll take a look. ”
"Golden .jpg!"
Mo Xiaoyi, who was on the other side of the phone, saw this photo, and was a little speechless, if you want this to be an ancestral heirloom, I will eat this thing directly.
You're lying, can you wipe the grass-green mark on the gold, so that people can tell at a glance which grass they just picked up.
After a while, Mo Xiaoyi still replied: "Yes!"
Chen Meng was overjoyed all of a sudden, looking at this senior, how reliable this senior brother is.
"Give it to me on Saturday, and after processing, I will transfer the money directly to you. ”
"Good. ”
Chen Meng replied that he knew that Mo Xiaoyi would only go to the martial arts hall on Saturdays and Sundays, and he had other things to do at Jiangzhou University during normal times.
After finishing this, I saw that the time was already past eleven o'clock.
Chen Meng hid the gold first, read the book, and then went to wash up and get ready for bed.
......
It's Friday in a blink of an eye, and Chen Meng has been thinking hard about ways to make money these days, and finally found that it is easiest to get money from his parents.
After a week of digestion, my parents should have come out of the shadow of the 20,000 yuan, and this time he racked his brains to think of a very reliable reason to ask for money.
On the way to school the next day, Chen Meng thought for a while and said, "A group, I plan to cheat some money out of my family, the reason is that I know an old professor of the rune class who has published papers this year, and I can buy internal review materials from him." When the time comes, if my parents ask you if there is such a thing, you will say yes, okay?"
Ma Qunqun looked at Chen Meng with some shock, you seem to be an honest guy, have you started to cheat money from your family in this way.
Chen Meng also has no choice, last time it was 20,000, and this time he plans to cheat 35000 from his family, this father and mother may be suspicious, and he must be fully prepared.
When the parents were suspicious, they were likely to ask the Ma group directly, after all, the relationship between the two families was good, and the two of them were in the same class, and they were at the same table.
In fact, it is better to wait for his parents to completely forget about the 20,000 yuan, but it is too close to the college entrance examination, and it will only be twelve weeks after these two days, and he doesn't have so much time to wait for his parents to digest these.
Ma Yiqun knew that the time had come to test the brotherhood, and gritted his teeth: "Okay, if your parents ask, I will ambush you on the side when the time comes, and ensure that your parents will not see it." ”
Chen Meng nodded with satisfaction, I recognize your brother, and when I get the key points in the future examination, I will not forget your merits.
"And how much are you going to ask for the family?" asked Ma at the end.
"That...... Five thousand. Chen Meng thought about it, this was the figure he estimated his parents would accept.
......
When he went back in the evening, Chen Meng told his parents about it, and his parents were a little dumbfounded when they heard it.
And another five thousand?
Chen Meng said helplessly at this time: "Parents, I also want to be admitted to a good university." The last time I asked for money to enroll in cram school, now I tutor until almost 10 o'clock every night, and this is the proof of this. To be honest, I regret it very much now, regretting that I didn't study hard in my freshman and sophomore years of high school and wasted a lot of time. I now have to seize the last three months and do everything I can to improve my grades, so that I can live up to your expectations. ”
My parents also saw Chen Meng's changes, especially this week, when Chen Meng went out early and returned late, he was indeed a little relieved.
Coupled with Chen Meng's earnest words, they almost burst into tears, and their son has grown up.
This time, it was my mother Xu Xiu, who said directly: "Son, as long as you can be admitted to a good university, we are willing to spend as much as you want, isn't it 5,000, this money can still be saved." ”
Chen Meng silently said sorry to his mother, and said with a smile on his face: "Mom, I know that you are the best for me." ”
Dad Chen Jianghe was a little speechless on the side, I gave you 20,000 yuan last time, why don't you say that, a little rabbit cub.
After getting his parents done, he immediately had another 5,000 yuan in the account, and Chen Meng was in a very good mood.
The next day was Saturday, Chen Meng was going to the martial arts hall, and his mother also knew that Chen Meng was going out to 'tutor', so she made breakfast early.
At this time, my mother's mobile phone suddenly rang.
"Hey, Ma Qun's mother? Oh, what, the old professor's internal review materials, what is 10,000, I'll tell you, Chen Meng told me when he got home, as long as 5,000, it must be your family who lied to you. Your son just doesn't clean up, how can he deceive people, don't you say? What, he went to the Internet a few days ago, so he has to clean up!"
......
Chen Meng was drinking porridge, listening to the chat between the two mothers, and gradually became dumbfounded.
Ma group, I just asked you to cover for me, and you actually copied my idea.
You're a fucking 10,000, I'm only going to ask for 5,000!!
Chen Meng gritted his teeth, angry, and now he had a desperate urge to find a group of horses.
