Chapter 492: Just Bragging
Spontaneous group members.
Zhu Suisui is naturally in the same team with Yu Ze, together with Su Weiang.
The others worked in pairs.
They were the only ones in groups of three.
But Zhu Suisui is a little girl, and no one will say anything. The little girl’s safety is the most important thing.
It is a rare opportunity to act alone, and Zhu Suisui cherishes it very much.
She was almost suffocated to death after being shut away for more than a month.
In fact, once you get to the place the teacher mentioned, you will find that it is completely self-operated. The poorer the place, the more likely they are to turn a blind eye to such small businesses.
The higher-ups also know that if ordinary people are not allowed to earn some money, there will be a big mess.
In a remote and poor place like Nanshi, most of the people coming and going are small business owners who come to purchase jade, which has naturally formed such an industrial chain.
When he arrived at the place, Zhu Suisui found that there were many people from other places here.
Su Weiang said: "If you are going, just tell us where you are going. Even if we don't finish the work today, your safety is our top priority."
Yu Ze can't speak, but this is what he meant.
Everyone had been doing group activities before, and Zhu Suisui had never gone out except when he was in class.
I also want to understand the local situation first.
Zhu Suisui is good at socializing, otherwise he would not have learned the local dialect. After staying here for a while, he became familiar with the people here.
The locals told her, "We have some people sneaking in here. They are all good raw materials at very cheap prices. A black market has formed spontaneously. The place your teacher asked you to go to is where the raw materials picked up by the locals are sold. The black market I mentioned is a place that specializes in this business. It is much more likely to produce good jade than the ones sold by the locals."
This made Zhu Suisui cautious.
She trusted Su Weiang, after all, they were friends who had been through thick and thin together. As for Yu Ze, after getting to know him during this period of time, Zhu Suisui began to understand why Qi Wenkang accepted him as his apprentice.
Yu Ze is not very good at speaking and his grades in Peking University are not very good, otherwise he would not have been assigned to the Archaeology Department. Because he is not good at flattery and his professional performance is not outstanding, he was left out by other professors. At the beginning, he did not have a mentor, but he was down-to-earth and hard-working, and occasionally helped Qi Wenkang.
Qi Wenkang never asked for anything. He thought that he was honest and could concentrate on archaeology. Although he was a little stupid, he was hardworking enough, so he arranged him to work under him.
Yu Ze had no plans for the future. Now the country was still assigning jobs. He knew that the possibility of staying in the old city was very low, and he didn't want to go to a remote place where he would be far away from home. So he simply took the postgraduate entrance examination.
He is Zhu Suisui's senior, but during class he basically follows Zhu Suisui's arrangements, which shows that he has no opinions of his own.
In terms of character, Zhu Suisui would naturally trust anyone who was recognized by Qi Wenkang.
She took the two of them to look around the stalls, but she didn't see any good stuff even with her supernatural powers, which was a pity.
Yu Ze picked up a few small stones, following the teacher's instructions, and looked at Zhu Sui with great interest, "Junior, I think these are good."
Zhu Suisui took a look and saw yellow mist.
Um……
It's barely a good thing.
Zhu Suisui coughed lightly and said, "Since this is just a group assignment, please buy less, Senior."
This time I went out to buy things, I used my own money.
Food and accommodation are all covered during this training, so you don't have to pay for shopping.
Zhu Suisui knew that Yu Zejia was just an ordinary employee. She thought that in a few years, the country would strongly support the individual economy, the efficiency of state-owned factories would decline sharply, and a wave of layoffs would soon begin. Under this circumstance, she thought that Yu Zejia should be more frugal.
Hearing Zhu Suisui say this, although Yu Ze was poured cold water on, he surprisingly trusted Zhu Suisui. After thinking about it, he picked a piece of raw material to buy and then started bargaining.
The price was directly cut from RMB 1.5 to 50 cents.
Zhu Suisui was stunned.
She suddenly discovered Yu Ze's ability.
Seeing that Zhu Suisui was in low spirits all the way, even Su Weiang, who didn't know much about this, bought a few small stones. With Yu Ze's help, he only spent one dollar and fifty cents. But Zhu Suisui didn't buy a single stone.
This made the two of them a little puzzled.
"Sui Sui, don't you have anything you like?"
I wish you a happy new year.
How could she say that she really looked down on these little gadgets?
Maybe he made a lot of money. Zhu Suisui has no desire to buy those yellow mist ones. He must have made a lot of money, so he wins by quantity.
Fifty cents a piece, if you polish it well and make it into earrings or something, it will definitely work, and you can sell it for more than ten dollars, which is a good profit. But the transportation, labor and other materials, etc., plus the craftsmanship of the master, how much time it takes to make these things, Zhu Suisui thinks it is not worth it.
But picking up bargains is not that easy.
All the good jades have been contracted by qualified people. The jades like the one from the farmer are all scraps, and the possibility of picking out good ones is very small.
It’s just that it’s not convenient to say these words to the two of them as they sound too rude.
At this time.
Liu Ping and others came towards us.
Seeing the three of them together, Liu Ping glanced at Zhu Suisui and said in a gloomy tone, "Hey, it's me who doesn't have Junior Sister Zhu. Is there nothing here that you like? It seems that Junior Sister Zhu has very high requirements. She must be able to get first place in the assessment assignment."
The person next to him pulled Liu Ping and smiled awkwardly at Zhu Suisui.
Zhu Suisui helped a lot along the way, and everyone remembered her kindness. Everyone except Liu Ping had received mosquito coils and mugwort sent by Zhu Suisui, and had also used her wind oil. Only Liu Ping suffered several losses, and he blamed Zhu Suisui for all the grudges.
People traveling with me naturally felt embarrassed.
Zhu Suisui actually didn't want to pay attention to Liu Ping, but this Liu Ping had been constantly looking for trouble with him in the past month. Although it was only verbal, he was still as annoying as a fly.
She glanced at Liu Ping and laughed, "It turned out to be Senior Liu. I almost didn't recognize you."
The mosquitoes in the countryside of Nanshi are very poisonous.
Liu Ping didn't have any mosquito coils, so his whole body was covered with bites and his face was swollen. Of course, he looked horrible now.
He hated Zhu Suisui because Zhu Suisui gave mosquito coils and other things to everyone except him, which made him very angry. There were few supplies here and these things were expensive, and Liu Ping bought them at a high price.
Now when Zhu Suisui mentioned this, Liu Ping's face changed and he said angrily: "You——"
"Senior Liu, we are here to study. I am very busy now and have no time to greet you. As for whether I can get the first place in the assessment assignment, please don't bother with it." Zhu Suisui smiled slightly and left with the other two.
Liu Ping was angry. "Zhu Suisui, I think you are scared. You are a little girl who knows nothing. Do you think you can be good at talking? We are in the archaeology department. We rely on real ability. When the assessment comes, I will let you know what it means that there is always someone better than you!"
Zhu Suisui felt that Liu Ping was more annoying than the mosquitoes in South City. She turned her head to look at Liu Ping and said calmly, "Senior Liu, don't worry. No matter how bad I am, I won't be worse than you. Focus on studying and stop complaining. It's annoying."
Hearing this, Yu Ze and the others couldn't help but laugh.
It is indeed quite petty and mean.
Liu Ping was so angry, "Well, you are just a yellow-haired girl, and you only know how to brag here. I'll see how you can beat me in the exam!"
