Chapter 257 A Strange Transaction
"They're not only collecting blood mushrooms for Qian Duoduo, they're also collecting other things, and they're using oil, and they're in Qian Duoduo's own home. Okay, let's go and see for ourselves, and we'll know who dares to take advantage of me, Uncle Gou. Are you ready?"
"Alright, miss." A strong man's voice came from outside the villa. Uncle Gou walked in with an eye patch on his face. "Miss, the takeout food is already in the car. The things you're going to inspect are also ready. The first aid supplies and the one-button life raft are also ready."
Jing Shu shrugged, "Then let's go. I'm afraid he's a scammer. Businesses with a lot of money always use special cars for pick-up. I haven't been there by myself yet. Since it's at his house, there's nothing unexpected."
Jingshu felt relieved and followed Sumali into her car. Of course, there were two bodyguards armed with guns and shields, so they had to show their strength.
The customized private business car set off from the Banana Community. Jingshu felt the definition of a luxury car: it was indeed much more comfortable to sit in than her own energy car worth tens of thousands of yuan. She didn't even feel it when passing over the speed bumps, and the interior space was extremely large.
The sound of rain outside was also blocked out. Sitting in the car listening to music, Jingshu felt like she had come to another world, as if this was not the end of the world.
Su Mali had a honey silk mask on her face that she and Jingshu had exchanged for compressed natural gas. She was drinking Wangzai milk with a straw in her mouth, applying nail polish on her hands, and enjoying the automatic massaging leather seat. She was worried that there were many things she could not enjoy in the apocalypse.
It really proves the saying: You can’t imagine the happiness of rich people.
Normally it would take about half an hour to get to Qian Duoduo's house in Xishan, but I heard that the entrance collapsed due to heavy rain, so we have to take a long detour.
Jingshu practiced solving the Rubik's Cube when she had nothing to do. The seventh-order Rubik's Cube was spinning in Jingshu's hands in a fancy way. After a while, it was restored to six colors, and then quickly disrupted again, and then restored again. Su Mali watched it curiously all the way.
"We have arrived at the location designated by the other party, Miss." Uncle Gou, who was driving, turned on the headlights, circled the mountain, and found an abandoned manor at the bottom of the mountain.
This was Jingshu's first time to visit Qian Duoduo's place. She had just passed by the staff accommodation, the guest villa area on the mountainside, and the planting and breeding areas of Qian Duoduo's home. She also saw the castle that Qian Shengqian had teased her about last time.
But this place... is very far away from the above places, it feels like ten kilometers away.
At this time, the gate of the manor opened and the car continued to drive into the manor. It arrived at a small two-story Western-style building. The surrounding area was abandoned and it was impossible to tell what the land was originally used for.
Jingshu and Sumali got out of the car wearing closed raincoats. Uncle Gou and two bodyguards were carrying large bags and were welcomed in by the people at the door. The two took off their raincoats and placed them at the door.
"Please come this way, please come this way." The young man with middle-parted hair invited people in with a smile.
The small western-style building was filled with an abandoned smell, and Jingshu frowned.
The young man with a middle-parted hair said with a smile: "Please come to the underground, there is another cave here."
The two-story building had been uninhabited for a long time and looked dilapidated. The young man led Jingshu and her group to the underground entrance. Upon opening it, they discovered a different world. It was a large underground passageway, and it was bustling with activity. Jingshu saw slot machines, roulette wheels, and other things. It looked like an underground casino!
"Follow me." The young man with a middle-parted hair led Jingshu and her group inside. Along the way, Su Mali looked at these people curiously as they played dice, Pai Gow, Fantan, etc.
Jingshu always felt that something was wrong, as if the style of the painting was wrong? It was the end of the world, and people still gambled.
The elegant room they were taken to was very quiet, cut off from the outside world. A fat man was half-slumped on the sofa, dressed simply, his slippers scattered across his face. He said casually, "I collect all kinds of rare fat piglets for Mr. Qian. I want all your blood mushrooms from now on. I heard you have some more, right?"
Su Mali nodded. Although it was different from what she had imagined a business negotiation would look like, she still said, "We're only exchanging oil. These are the things we brought, Uncle Gou."
Uncle Gou was a one-eyed burly man. He opened the things he was carrying one by one. Two bodyguards followed closely behind Su Mali, looking very professional.
The fat piglet held his feet and looked at the blood
Mushroom's eyes lit up as he looked at Sumali bringing out the most in-demand medicines, the currently very precious matsutake mushrooms, bluefin tuna, and other luxury goods, nodding his head repeatedly. "Very good, give me a package price."
Adhering to the business principle of "I ask for a high price and you bargain low," Sumali said, "Let's just buy 20 tons of gasoline!"
The fat piglet pondered for a moment before saying, "It's not impossible, but it has to include the three subsequent blood mushrooms, which are exactly the same size and quantity as this one."
Su Mali did the math and realized that even if she gave Jingshu 8 tons of gasoline, she would still have 12 tons. "Okay, deal!"
The two sides quickly reached an agreement. Jingshu raised an eyebrow. She remembered that since the construction of the artificial sun last year, gasoline and natural gas have become more scarce, so the price should be higher. Why is this fat guy not bargaining at all?
"This is the order I made. You can find someone to go with you to confirm the oil. The others can wait here, and then I will deliver it to you." The fat pig said with a smile.
Uncle Gou stepped forward and said, "Miss, let me handle this matter. I'm worried about others going. You two can rest here for a while."
"Well, good. Go early and come back early. Report to me in time if there are any problems." Su Mali was in a good mood. Look, her father always said that she could not bear the heavy responsibility of the family, but she just took it on casually.
Uncle Gou left, and Jingshu sat on the sofa, observing the fat piglet motionlessly.
Time passes by little by little.
Fatty served water, drinks and food, but Jingshu and Sumali didn't eat any. Jingshu was conscious of not eating other people's food when she was out, but Sumali simply looked down on it.
"Eat something and wait, or why don't you guys go out and play?" The fat piglet said with a smile, "I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation. Next time, please bring me more goodies."
Jingshu raised her eyebrows, "Mr. Qian doesn't need these, right?"
"How could that be? These are all good things." The fat piglet laughed, "Then you guys wait here for a while, I'll go out and check the situation first."
After saying this, the fat piglet was about to go out.
Jingshu looked around the whole house and narrowed her eyes. "Wait, you should stay here and talk to us for a while."
Jingshu slowly approached the fat pig. She always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't see what it was. This man was too easy to talk to, and he paid the oil so quickly, but she hadn't seen the oil yet, and there was no news from Uncle Gou yet.
"I suddenly remembered something to do. I'll call the other brothers to accompany you."
"Stop. Are you in such a hurry to leave? Is there something wrong with this house?"
