Lin Manman's eyes were about to fall out. This Cheng Hui was so rich. He just gave away such a box of jade treasures for free?
Lin Manman quickly nodded and agreed:
"Then I would like to thank Brother Cheng for giving me face in front of Brother Lin. The food and vegetables I transported here before were worth 5,000 yuan!"
"Food is hard to come by in a hurry, but we still have a lot of vegetables. I'll call Brother Lin later and ask him to send us two more trucks overnight. We must not let Brother Cheng suffer any loss!"
Cheng Hui nodded in surprise. It was almost the New Year and the food supply was sufficient, so it wouldn't matter if there was more!
But those vegetables are rare in winter, and there are never enough to sell no matter how much you have!
On the third day, Lin Manman pretended to ask Cheng Hui to take people to the place where the last transaction took place, and sure enough, a lot of vegetables arrived.
After calculating the cost of these vegetables, Cheng Hui not only had to give all the jade in his hand to Lin Manman, but also had to give Lin Manman 3,500 yuan in change!
Seeing that Lin Manman had money and liked these old goods, Cheng Hui pointed out a clear way for Lin Manman:
"Brother Xiaomu, I see you really like these things, so I'll take you to a place where they should have a lot of similar things!"
Cheng Hui was talking about none other than the several wealthy men named Jin who had tricked him into buying these boxes of stuff!
Although the prices asked for by those Mr. Jin were high, the quality of their products was indeed impeccable. Cheng Hui wanted to connect the two sides, so as to do a favor for Brother Xiaomu who had the goods, and also make life easier for those Mr. Jin!
Otherwise, based on his observation of the lives of those Mr. Jins, he would probably be out of money and food again!
Lin Manman didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain. This was really great. Lin Manman quickly agreed:
"That's really too much trouble for Brother Cheng. Don't worry, Brother Cheng, if I find good stuff in the future, I will definitely ask Brother Lin to return it to Brother Cheng!"
This is what Cheng Hui meant. Thinking that Brother Xiaomu was really smart, he said happily:
"Then Brother Cheng would like to thank Brother Xiaomu. Let's go now. I tell you, the goods in the hands of these people will satisfy you!"
Cheng Hui took Lin Manman through many twists and turns and finally arrived at a small courtyard with its own entrance and yard.
The house was not small, but it looked dilapidated. Cheng Hui walked closer, knocked on the door handle, and asked in a low voice:
"Uncle Jin, are you home? I'm Xiao Cheng!"
…………
Grandpa Jin was lying in a rocking chair basking in the sun, thinking that he had almost spent all the money and tickets he had recently. He wondered if he should sell some more things in exchange for more money and tickets. He also wondered if Cheng boy could still fool him. There were not many such stupid buyers now!
Grandpa Jin was thinking deeply when he heard someone knocking on the door. Grandpa Jin narrowed his eyes and was about to pretend that no one was home when he heard Cheng Hui's voice asking.
When he heard it was Cheng Hui, Mr. Jin was delighted. He thought that whoever he wanted could get what he wanted. Now he had both the money and the tickets!
Mr. Jin quickly stood up, got down from the rocking chair, opened the door and said:
"Cheng boy, you're here. I have a lot of good stuff reserved for you. Come in and take a look!"
When Cheng Hui saw how enthusiastic Mr. Jin was, he felt a little pain in his back teeth. Then he thought that he was not buying it himself this time, so he felt more balanced. Cheng Hui introduced it to Mr. Jin:
"Uncle Jin, this time it's not me who's buying it, it's my friend, Brother Xiaomu, who wants to buy it!"
"I have sold all your previous goods to Brother Xiaomu. If you have any other good goods, show them to Brother Xiaomu!"
When Mr. Jin heard that the goods from last time were all bought by the young man who followed Cheng Hui, he was surprised. He looked Lin Manman up and down for a long time, and said with a meaningful smile:
"The boy's surname is Mu? I think his surname should be Hua!"
When Lin Manman heard this, she knew that Mr. Jin had already seen that she was a woman. Lin Manman did not ask her surname, but smiled and asked:
"Uncle Jin, you are joking. I came here this time because I heard from Brother Cheng that Uncle Jin has some fine gold and jade jewelry. I wanted to come and broaden my horizons. I wonder if Uncle Jin is willing to come!"
Seeing Lin Manman, who was not embarrassed and still calm and composed despite being exposed, Mr. Jin was impressed by Lin Manman. He pointed to the small side room next to him and said:
"Come in with me, but we have to make it clear in advance. These are all good things, and they are not cheap!"
Hearing this, Cheng Hui curled his lips and said to Mr. Jin:
"Uncle Jin, please don't ask for too much this time. You don't know that I was badly cheated last time when I bought goods from you uncles!"
"Don't even think about making a big profit. I couldn't sell them for several years. I finally sold them to Brother Xiaomu, but that was at a loss. And I also lost a box of loose goods that I collected here and there!"
After hearing what Cheng Hui said, Mr. Jin said with a guilty conscience:
"That's because you don't know how to sell. Our goods are all passed down from generation to generation. They are so good that money can't buy them!"
"Okay, okay, since you're not going to buy anything this time, stop talking nonsense!"
