Chapter 267: Roll them all up
Originally, many villagers were doubtful about this matter.
After all, the price of something rising from more than ten yuan per catty to two thousand yuan per catty sounds outrageous!
Besides, except Zheng Dayou himself, no one has ever seen the boss who paid for the acquisition.
Many of the villagers had this thought: Could it be that Zheng Dayou was playing tricks on them?
But Zheng Dayou shouldn't be so boring, so although many people are looking for stones, they don't pay much attention. They are just looking for something to do. What if? What if it's true?
Who knew, it turned out to be true!
One thousand six hundred yuan!
Daily income of 1,600 yuan!
Isn’t this more profitable than anything else?
At that moment, there were discussions all around.
"Wow, Uncle Wu is so lucky! He found so many!"
"Comfortable, you are not allowed to buy two kilograms of ribs for extra meals today?"
"Ah Ah, I just found a small piece of stone, I guess it’s only two taels.”
“I have five taels, haha! It’s not as good as Uncle Wu, but it’s pretty good. I got a thousand!”
"Damn it! I'm going to get up early and go to the river tomorrow!"
"I'll get up at five o'clock!"
"Five o'clock? I'll just stop sleeping and go to the river to look for him all night long!"
The villagers were very excited.
Following the old man, they rushed to Cheng Ming, wanting to exchange the stones in their hands for Cheng Ming.
Even Cheng Ming was almost squeezed away.
"Don't be anxious, everyone! Don't be anxious, everyone! Take your time! Everyone is indispensable."
Zheng Dayou spontaneously helped Cheng Ming maintain order, just like a good helper for the boss look.
He himself had two large rocks in his hand, which seemed to be worth seven or eight taels, but he was not in a hurry to exchange money with Cheng Ming.
Because of his previous experience, he knew that Cheng Ming needed this kind of stone and would not "run away" and would definitely trade with everyone.
Although he didn't know why Cheng Ming needed this kind of stone, he was even willing to pay so much more to buy it.
But what the heck.
As long as it can be sold for money.
With the help of Zheng Dayou, the chaotic villagers regained order and began to queue up, one by one to trade in front of Cheng Ming.
“Your three taels, a total of six hundred, have been transferred to you.”
"Four taels, eight hundred yuan."
"Your six taels, one thousand two."
"Your one tael is not enough, I will give you one tael, two hundred yuan." You.”
After a while, dozens of villagers finally completed the transaction.
The last one is Zheng Dayou.
Cheng Ming weighed his stone and found that it also weighed eight taels.
"Brother, you are lucky." Cheng Ming said.
“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Zheng Dayou said happily.
Hearing the sound of money arriving, he smiled even more happily.
Cheng Ming glanced at the pile of rubble in front of him and felt a little disappointed.
He originally thought that with so many people helping to search, he should be able to find a lot, but in reality, there were dozens of villagers, and in the end, they only found about 11 or 2 pounds.
In this case, he doesn’t know how many days it will take to complete the task.
Hey, forget it, let’s look again.
In this way, Cheng Ming returned to the hotel in Wushi Town.
Waiting until the afternoon of the next day, around the same time, Cheng Ming came to Shanhe Village again.
Today's villagers are more conscious than yesterday and automatically formed a line. The acquisition was completed quickly.
But what disappoints Cheng Ming is that the stone he received today is only seven or eight kilograms, not even as good as yesterday.
There seem to be a few more people looking for stones today.
But there are fewer stones than yesterday.
"Everyone searched the river bank yesterday. If we search again today, there will definitely be less. Some people have found them ten kilometers away, but the harvest is not much." Zheng Dayou said.
Cheng Ming nodded.
But I am a little troubled. If I continue to gain less every day than the previous day, how can I complete this task?
Thinking of this, Cheng Ming felt that he had to think of another way.
He suddenly thought about what Zheng Dayou said before. A few years ago, there were buyers who came here to collect stones. So if he went to buy from the buyers, he should be able to complete the task, right?
The task requirement is to find one hundred catties of fire cloud stone. Should it make no difference if you find it by the river or buy it from a buyer?
No matter what, I have to give it a try.
Thinking of this, Cheng Ming asked Zheng Dayou: "Brother Zheng, you said before that a buyer came here to buy this kind of stone a few years ago?"
"Yes." Zheng Dayou was a little bit nod.
"Then do you remember where the acquirer is?"
Zheng Dayou asked: "Boss Cheng, do you want to buy stones directly from the purchaser?"
"Yes." Cheng Mingdao.
Zheng Dayou immediately went to ask a few people in the village, and then came back to tell Cheng Ming.
“I didn’t go looking for the stone, and I didn’t know who it was. I only knew that it was a purchaser from Tengcheng. I heard from brothers in the village that he seemed to be the owner of a collectibles shop. What was his surname? No one should know.”
The owner of the Vine City Collection Store?
The scope of this information is not very large. If you really want to find it, just look for it one by one.
Anyway, Tengcheng is only a small city, so there shouldn’t be many stores like collectibles shops?
Now I just hope that this collection will not go bankrupt.
"Okay, thank the villagers for me." Cheng Ming said and was about to leave.
"Hey! Boss Cheng!" Zheng Dayou stopped him.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Ming turned around.
"Well, if you receive stones from the buyer, will you still accept our stones?" Zheng Dayou looked a little worried.
Cheng Ming is clear.
It seems that this old man is afraid that after receiving a large number of stones, he will not accept the stones from the villagers. In this way, the villagers will lose a good income?
"Brother, don't worry. I will still collect the stones found by the villagers as usual, and the price will not change." Cheng Mingdao.
No matter what, it is always a special medicinal material.
And it seems that it is not recyclable. If you use one part, you will lose one part. The more you have, the better, even if you have it in your hand and you can’t use it temporarily.
What if it is used in the future?
"That's good." Zheng Dayou seemed relieved.
"By the way, I am not from Tengcheng, and I may not be here by then. You ask the villagers to gather the stones in one person's hand, and then mail them to Haicheng, or send them to Haicheng to me. I will reimburse you for your travel expenses," Cheng Ming ordered.
"Okay!" Zheng Dayou agreed, and he took over the matter without hesitation, "I will be responsible for sending it there then."
After making arrangements here, Cheng Ming returned to the hotel, checked out, and drove Come to Vine City.
While opening Changde Navigation, he said: "You can trick me in the village, but you can't do it in the city, right?"
Search for "Collectibles Store", a total of nine appeared on the map target point.
Fortunately, there are not many, only nine, and you can read them all in one day.
Cheng Ming was hungry at this time.
But there happened to be a collectibles store nearby, so Cheng Ming drove directly to the store without eating.
Arrived at the target location.
In front of Cheng Ming is a street shop. The shop is decorated in a modern style with a large floor-to-ceiling window, but there are many antique objects on the counter inside. The two styles collide and create strange sparks.
