Chapter 70: The Name of a Man, the Shadow of a Tree
With the dull sound of a whistle, a truck carrying cinders whizzed across the wide street, leaving two blackened rut marks and scattered cinders on the ground, followed by a car that had just come out of the side of the alleyway, with a pile of mechanical parts on top that had not yet been completely disassembled, and two strong men in short coats sat in the car and swallowed the fog, perhaps from a factory.
A large handful of gray-white steam from the rear exhaust pipe, mixed with a tobacco-smelling mist, swirled in the wind, dissipating to reveal three figures standing side by side on the side of the street.
Standing by the lamppost was a burly man dressed in a black robe, with a belt inlaid with gilt lines around his waist, and a pair of cloth boots inlaid with jade on his feet, with a handful of beard under his chin, a little wrinkle at the corners of his eyes and forehead, and a kitten in his arms, who was "purring~" napping.
"In the end, it is a city with a dense concentration of heavy industry, and the factories of this government are also in a similar state. ”
Lu Di Renjie Jing withdrew his gaze from the volcano outside the sand-blowing city, and instead fell on the large pipes that could be seen everywhere inside and outside the large factory with the plaque of "Government-run Sand Blacksmith Workshop" hanging on the opposite side of the street, and the workers in light blue uniforms who kept coming in and out of the door, paused, and turned his head to look at his companion standing on the right.
"Yuan Fang, what do you think?"
From Qingle Island to Blowing Sand Island, for a whole day and a half, in order to start the operation as soon as possible, they relied on Fu Ju to complete the disguise before landing on the island, and at the same time adopted a pseudonym, Lu Jing called himself Di Renjie, the reason is that he knows that this name is a person who can solve mysteries as soon as he hears it.
"If you want to go in, you have to pass it in advance, let's take advantage of this time to quickly think of a suitable identity, otherwise I am afraid it will be difficult to talk later." ”
Xu Li Yuanfang is wearing a strong suit that is easy to move, and there are two long knives that belong to Lu Jing hanging around his waist, and the role he plays is a guard, although he doesn't understand why Lu Jing must let him use the pseudonym Li Yuanfang, but with his experience, it is naturally not a problem to want to perform the state of the guard.
"We can call ourselves factory buyers in Qihuangdao and contact them in the name of inspecting materials, and when I came out just now, I brought some joints of iron sand puppets, which can be used as our products. ”
Fu Ju, who was wearing monocle mechanical glasses and dressed as a scholar, carried a suitcase, and his eyes roamed over the faces of Lu Jing and Xu Qi to make sure that there was no problem with his makeup.
"That's a good idea, Conan, and you'll have to negotiate with them later. ”
"Can I change my name...... I've always thought the name 'Conan' sounded a little unlucky. ”
That's right, at the strong request of a certain bad person, Fu Ju's pseudonym became Conan.
It's not that Lu Jing didn't give her other choices, Ke Zhen is evil, and Conan chooses one of the two.
What do you choose?
"Don't worry about the details, let's go. ”
Lu Jing decisively rejected Fu Ju's request, in his opinion, this name is very appropriate, he looked left and right and saw that there were no vehicles passing by, and strode towards the craftsman workshop with the two of them.
Although it is an official organization, as a craftsman workshop that takes into account commercial transactions, there are not too many restrictions on the review of people entering and leaving the distance, and Lu Jing was soon personally received by Qian Sanqi, the person in charge of the craftsman workshop, after explaining his intentions.
......
"It's a really good idea...... So you bought the fused sand for golem crafting?"
In a reception room inside the craftsman's workshop, Qian Sanqi, who was sitting behind the wooden table, took a sip of tea after watching Fu Ju's quite professional demonstration, and his eyes turned around the three people in front of him, and finally landed on Di Renjie, who was sitting opposite him, and believed in their intentions seven or eight points in his heart.
"No, I think you misunderstood, this is just a preliminary attempt, we are very optimistic about the applicability of this material in various places, so we are ready to buy a batch of golems for golem crafting, if the follow-up market response is good, we will also buy in large quantities!"
Lu Jing stroked Liuli's back, reclining on the sofa, although he was sitting in the position of a guest, his posture and words were full of breathtaking momentum.
As a transcendent person, it is not too simple for Lu Jing to maintain deterrence in the face of ordinary people, and in this kind of business conversation, this momentum is undoubtedly increasing his credibility in the eyes of the other party.
Before they came to the sand blowing city, they inquired, due to the complex process of melting sand caused by the high price, most of the factories in the purchase of similar materials tend to focus on the effect of poor, the price is much cheaper alternatives, after all, the factory wants to make a profit, must pursue cost-effective.
Therefore, although the name of molten fire sand sounds loud, the number of orders that can really reach a deal is very small, and because of this, Lu Jing has already thought of a set of rhetoric in his heart.
"It's really our honor to be able to get this, we have a lot of molten sand in our warehouse here, I don't know how many goods you plan to ask for in the first batch?"
As soon as he heard that it was a big order, Qian Sanqi's eyes immediately lit up a little, and he couldn't wait to ask.
God knows how uncomfortable it is for him to see the molten sand piled up in the warehouse every time he counts the inventory, and now he finally has a way to sell the goods, so he naturally doesn't want to miss it.
"As I said, we need to test the melt fire further, and this time we came to you, and we only planned to purchase some of it...... Conan. ”
Lu Jing gave Fu Ju a look, and the latter immediately took out a money bag from his waist and opened it inadvertently, revealing a golden leaf with a brilliant golden light in the sunlight projected by the window, which made Qian Sanqi's eyes straighten for a while.
It's not that he hasn't seen money, but he really hasn't seen this dozen gold leaves casually piled up in a money bag!
However, before he could react, he saw the person in front of him take out 2 gold leaves and push them directly in front of him.
"We want to buy 10 catties of molten fire sand, and the rest is your labor fee!"
A pound of molten sand is about 10 silver dollars, which means that the extra gold leaf is all his!
"Ahh......h
Pushing and dragging on the mouth, Qian Sanqi's hand was faster than anyone else to hold the two gold leaves, the government-run craftsman workshop is a public industry, like him is the shopkeeper here to say that it sounds good, and if it is ugly, it is a bookkeeper, and the annual income is only 2 gold leaves, and half a year's salary, people will take it out as his labor fee.
At this moment, Qian Sanqi even felt that the people in front of him were glowing all over, and they were still golden light!
"Hey~ This is what you deserve, I actually have a reluctant invitation here, you also know, doing our business, peers are like enemy countries, so I want to know if anyone else has come to buy molten sand in the past two months, the amount should be not small. ”
Fu Ju did use molten fire sand to make sand and iron puppets, but Lu Jing's real purpose was obviously the second half of the sentence.
"There are a lot of people who buy molten fire sand, I don't know which one you are asking?"
"As far as I know, they bought it in someone else's name, and we couldn't come up with a name for a while, and now the situation is quite urgent...... I wonder if you can make it easier?"
Naturally, it was impossible for the Nightmare Pirates to sign their own name when they bought Molten Fire Sand, so what Lu Jing wanted was actually a full list of the Molten Fire Sand purchased in the near future.
"Well...... We are an official craftsman's workshop, and it is our responsibility to protect the privacy of our customers. ”
How can anyone who can sit in this position be a stupid person, Lu Jing's hint Qian Sanqi understood almost immediately, and the palm holding the gold leaf suddenly loosened, and the gaze of the former person was a little more judgmental.
"You misunderstood, I didn't say what list I wanted to get from you, but I just wanted to remind you that when you get older, there are always bad times, and it's not uncommon to take documents and forget them somewhere, let alone on the premise that you just made a lot of extra money. ”
Lu Jing raised his eyebrows, and Fu Ju took out a gold leaf again and put it in front of Qian Sanqi.
The latter is an unforgettable memory genius, and today Lu Jing is going to use money to smash him into Alzheimer's!
"Oh, you're really talking, it's my old problem, it's a mess. ”
put the gold leaf in his pocket, and then bent down in front of the safe under the table for a while, only to hear the sound of "click~", and then took a blue-covered ledger and put it on the table, and then slapped his forehead,
"I can't seem to find my ledger, I'm sorry, it's a very important thing, I have to find it...... I think I'll have to find it for about ten minutes, but you'll wait here until I find it, and then I'll come and entertain you. ”
After saying that, Qian Sanqi got up and walked out of the door straightforwardly, and after stepping out of the threshold, he explained to the people outside quite carefully, asking them not to come in and disturb.
In this world, who can't get along with money?
"Heh, that's a good thing. ”
Xu Chu quickly stepped forward to open the account book, looked back at Lu Jing and said.
"Seize the time of ten minutes, quickly transcribe the transaction records of the last three months, and focus on some purchases in private names, especially those like ours. ”
Whether you can find the clues of the Nightmare Pirates depends on this!
Fu Ju took out a notepad from his backpack and handed it to Xu Chu, who copied it according to the account book, while she stood on the side and watched a series of numbers, names, and titles swiped in front of her eyes, until a string of peculiar numbers came into view: 12 catties, 6 taels, and 96 yuan.
In other records, the amount of molten sand purchased is accurate to two at most, but this data is accurate to a smaller unit, and because of this, it looks particularly conspicuous, and the eyes turn to the buyer next to it, Fuju Factory procurement.
"I found it, Lu ...... Di Renjie, that's the number, this is definitely the message my brother left me!"
Seeing this string of messages, Fu Ju raised his hand and pressed the name on it, and suddenly spoke.
"The message your brother left you?"
The sudden discovery made Lu Jing a little surprised, and he stepped forward and asked.
"It will never be wrong, Fuju, Fu Ju, and these 12 catties and 6 taels, December 6th is my birthday!"
Fu Ju pressed the data on the account book with a determined expression.
One may be a coincidence, and when two come together, it is inevitable!
The question is, why did Fu Jiangxin leave a message here?
