Chapter 242: Could it be that the cool feeling is caused by jade?
Thinking about the important things I have to do today, I wonder if I can buy the raw materials?
Wen Kexin was anxious and jumped up.
He opened the door and complained, "Why didn't you call me earlier?"
Song Mo felt that he was more wronged than Dou E, and explained: "Wife, I came to call you every half an hour, but you didn't wake up. Were you too tired last night? I thought you were there..."
Wen Kexin knew it was her fault, so she interrupted him and admitted her mistake.
"It's my fault! Let's pack up quickly. We'll probably go straight to the train station tonight."
Of course Song Mo understood this. He had packed up everything in his room and brought over a travel bag.
There were a lot of things in Wen Kexin's room. She threw most of them into the space, leaving only a small bag.
Suddenly, I slapped my head and remembered something and said, "Oh no, I haven't made breakfast yet."
"Go buy it?"
Wen Kexin shook her head and said, "Forget it, just take the ready-made food from the space."
The cooked food in the space not only tastes good, but also contains space energy. She hopes to help the elderly to recuperate.
It’s just that the delicacies in the space are becoming less and less, and I must replenish them in time when I have the chance.
She took out a pot of hot eight-treasure porridge, a dozen meat buns, a large bag of chopped braised beef, fried peanuts, pickled hot and sour cucumber strips, and stir-fried celery from the space.
Song Mo's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wife, these are enough!"
He found Zhang Shan and gave him some instructions, and the two of them hurried to the old man's ward.
I saw two old men waiting anxiously.
Wen Kexin said apologetically: "It's all my fault that I got up late. I could only make a few simple dishes."
As she spoke, she put the food on the table and served the eight-treasure porridge into several bowls.
When the two old men saw the sumptuous breakfast on the table, their mouths immediately watered.
Is it too late to wake up? Simple food?
The old man said with satisfaction: "You are joking, kid!"
Everyone sat together and ate and drank.
Wen Kexin looked at Dr. Jiang from time to time. The old man was obviously pretending to be confused.
"Uncle Master, did you ask? Is there any?"
Doctor Jiang then said calmly, "Of course I asked, but the place is a bit far. We need to take a bus to a small town a hundred kilometers away. My friend said that they are all smuggled raw materials, and they cost ten yuan per kilogram. By the way, this matter cannot be told to anyone. The smugglers want to keep a low profile, so only acquaintances will introduce them..."
Everyone nodded and said, "I understand!"
Everyone gasped. Nowadays, the average worker only earns 30 to 50 yuan a month, and has to support a large family.
In other words, if you spend a month's salary without eating or drinking, you can only buy three to five kilograms of jadeite raw stone.
Only Wen Kexin knew that the price of jadeite raw stones in later generations was calculated based on the price per gram, and ten yuan per kilogram was a very cheap price.
She didn't have much cash in her hand, but there was a lot of gold in the space.
Comparing the appreciation of gold and jade, of course the latter has a greater appreciation, so merchants who directly trade in gold should like it.
Thinking of this, she quickly felt relieved and said calmly: "The price is not bad!"
The two old men and Song Mo quickly thought that she might have mistaken the jadeite rough stone for jadeite?
Doctor Jiang said earnestly: "Ke Xin, jadeite raw stone is not jadeite?"
"I know that I need to gamble on stones. I just want to broaden my horizons."
It turns out this girl understands!
The old man said earnestly, "Ke Xin, I heard that nine out of ten people lose when gambling on stones. This time your uncle is taking you there just to see the fun. Don't be obsessed with buying so much."
Wen Kexin said obediently: "Grandpa, I know!"
The old man sighed in his heart: he was afraid that the child would spend money recklessly, and he was also afraid that she would have no money, so he watched anxiously.
He took out a stack of big unity wrapped in newspaper from under his pillow and said, "Kexin, take this money. If you want to buy something, just buy a few less."
Wen Kexin saw a thick stack of money, estimated to be about one thousand yuan, and knew that it was the old man's savings.
He waved his hand and said, "Grandpa, I have money in my hand, you can use it yourself."
The old man felt warm in his heart, and he stuffed the wad of money into her hands and said, "You are my granddaughter, my money is yours, buy it if you like."
Wen Kexin's eyes suddenly became moist. It felt so good to have a grandpa!
At this moment, Song Mo's face was full of guilt. He had donated all his salary and bonuses for the past few months.
The young wife needs money, but he himself is short of money.
I secretly decided to give all the allowance to my young wife.
Take on more tasks and earn more bonuses in the future.
Even though the young wife has her own space, it is all hers. As a husband, you cannot live off her and must shoulder the responsibility of supporting the family.
Several people quickly got into a semi-new jeep, and the driver was the attendant Xiao Wang.
Doctor Jiang looked at the young couple and said, "I don't have the ability to borrow a car. This car was borrowed by the old man."
Others may not know, but Song Mo knows that the old leader always distinguishes between public and private affairs and never causes trouble for others.
He asked tentatively: "Xiao Wang, this car..."
Xiao Wang said cheerfully, "Don't worry, Captain Song. The old commander said he would pay for the round trip gasoline."
Wen Kexin was touched, thinking that her grandfather doted on her so much.
Five hours later, they arrived at a border town, and Doctor Jiang pointed out the way.
The jeep arrived at the gate of a house.
Wen Kexin discovered that the yard was not small, with neat blue brick walls and a striking large iron gate.
Thinking that they were smugglers, I immediately understood.
Doctor Jiang said to several people, "Wait in the car. I'll contact them and ask them to come down first. By the way, Xiao Wang, after you see them get off the car, drive the car to another place and don't park at the gate of the house."
Xiao Wang nodded and said, "Okay!"
After getting out of the car, Dr. Jiang walked over and knocked on the door.
Someone in the yard asked loudly: "Who?"
Doctor Jiang replied: "I am your second uncle!"
"Where does the second uncle come from?"
"I came from the mountains. Your uncle brought me a message..."
Wen Kexin and Song Mo heard the conversation clearly. Song Mo suddenly felt dizzy. What was going on?
Wen Kexin guessed that this should be a secret code for contact. For safety reasons, people in this business would only trade with introductions from acquaintances.
Sure enough, the door opened.
Doctor Jiang waved to the two people in the car, and Wen Kexin and Song Mo opened the back door and got out.
When they walked into the yard, the gate was closed.
Several people were led to the backyard and found several piles of raw materials there. There were four or five people rummaging through the piles of raw materials.
To be honest, Wen Kexin only has theoretical knowledge but no practical knowledge.
I don't understand why the raw materials are placed in several piles, and I don't understand the quality of the raw materials.
The person who led them in found that they were all laymen and patiently explained, "See, that pile of raw materials is five yuan per kilogram; this pile is eight yuan; the largest pile is ten yuan per kilogram. The more expensive the price, the better the quality of the raw materials."
So that's how it is!
Wen Kexin was eager to know whether she could feel the jade inside the rough material.
She came to the pile of raw materials that cost five yuan per kilogram and found that they were all raw materials with broken edges or had been cut, and there were also a few pebbles among them.
She reached out and touched the wool, one piece, two pieces... until the fifth piece, but still felt nothing.
Finished! What is written in the book may not be true. I am no different from ordinary people.
God will not give all the luck and good things to you, so don't wishful thinking.
She saw some pebbles with smooth surfaces and reached out to grab them without giving up.
Suddenly, a cold feeling spread from my hands to my heart.
She was immediately shocked: Could it be that the cool feeling was caused by jade?
