Chapter 557: Pulling the flag and pulling the tiger skin
Before Chen Kexin could come up with a solution, the mine owner waved his hand sternly and said, "Everyone, step back. I haven't finished talking to Miss Chen yet..."
Chen Kexin asked calmly: "Speak!"
The fat on the mine owner's black face trembled a few times and he hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, Miss Chen, I'm paying you for prospecting. The reward is very considerable. I thought Ayong had made it clear to you."
He stared at Chen Kexin, wanting to see if she was interested.
Chen Kexin's heart was in turmoil. If she didn't know how to prospect for minerals, let alone gamble on stones, would the mine owner still do what she wanted just for the small amount of money they earned from buying the raw materials?
Thinking of this, he immediately had a solution and said calmly, "Mine owner, I don't know what this bastard said to you. Not to mention that I don't know how to prospect for minerals, even gambling on stones is a blind cat catching a dead mouse. I just want to come to your mine to buy some raw materials. If it's not convenient, we will turn around and leave. No matter how much you pay me, I won't be able to earn it even if I am jealous."
The mine owner's pupils kept moving and his face was gloomy.
Wang Jiwen also understood the crux of the matter. Last time he cut the stone, he only found trusted subordinates, but he didn't expect that some things would still be leaked.
After deeply blaming himself, he solemnly chimed in, "Mine owner, my niece is right. Last time she came to Tengchong, she saw a shop selling rough jade that was going to close due to poor business, and the shop owner was crying miserably. She advised me to buy up all the rough jade in the shop. I bought them back out of pity, and unexpectedly, I got several very good jadeite. I didn't expect that everyone would spread the rumor more and more, saying that this kid was good at gambling on jade, and this incident caused a big fuss."
The mine owner saw that the man opposite him was speaking sincerely, and most of his doubts were eliminated. The balance gradually tilted towards him, "Are you serious?"
"Of course! I'm an overseas Chinese, and I have many friends who have invested in Shenzhen. They also want to come to the mine to buy raw materials, and they are waiting for good news from me when I return. If something happens to us here, my friends and family will not ignore it, and the reputation of the mine owner will definitely be affected. As the saying goes, if you help others, you will help yourself. Please let the mine owner go."
Chen Kexin secretly admired her uncle in her heart. He was indeed a businessman and was very thoughtful in all aspects.
I have many friends, and everyone knows that I have come to your mine. This method of raising the banner and using the tiger's skin is very useful.
Why not follow suit!
Thinking of this, she took over the conversation and said, "Mine owner, you may not know my identity yet?"
"Who are you?"
Chen Kexin continued in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "I am a lecturer at Tsinghua University in Huaxia Longcheng. My grandfather is a big shot in the military. He has considerable influence in both the military and political circles. If you don't believe me, you can ask this bastard."
The mine owner looked at the mangy dog on the ground with a puzzled look.
Ayong heard what his elder brother said but didn't take it seriously at all.
At this moment, the mine owner looked at me with an aggressive gaze and I could only nod.
The balance in the mine owner's heart tilted again.
The expression on his face gradually relaxed. He didn't want to kill the businessman who came to the mine to buy raw materials.
As the saying goes, there is no wall that is impenetrable. If we kill these people and people find out, who will come to the mine to buy raw materials?
Thinking of this, he signaled to his men around him, "It's a misunderstanding. Don't make a fuss. Just do what you need to do."
Then, he said to Chen Kexin and his group, "Come with me. How much raw material do you want to buy?"
Chen Kexin said frankly: "Mine owner, although I don't know how to gamble on stones, I can still tell whether the rough material is good or not. If the rough material is good, we want to buy a truckload. If the quality is not good, we will just take a look and leave."
"Okay, follow me!"
The people who were on high alert around them soon dispersed.
The mine owner led them forward, but no one paid any attention to Ayong who was lying on the ground and being beaten.
He saw that everyone had left, then he struggled to get up from the ground.
He spat out the blood in his mouth, feeling angry: I thought I could make some money by defrauding those people, but I didn't expect to hit a wall and be rejected by both sides.
Not only did I not make any money this time, I also got my elder brother into trouble.
If he could go back in time, he would do the same.
As the saying goes, if a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth!
What now?
He quickly thought of a saying: A man of small mind is not a gentleman, and a man without poison is not a hero. His eyes revealed murderous intent.
He limped down the mountain and remembered that there was a local doctor where the mine owner lived.
He is in pain all over his body and must be treated promptly to avoid internal injuries.
Besides, the group of people who went up the mountain soon reached the halfway point, where there was a large platform.
At one end of the platform there are two rows of simple wooden houses, one for living and one for storing raw materials.
At the other end were piles of wool.
The mine owner explained, "These raw materials are five tons each. They are not the best quality raw materials. The price is favorable, 20,000 RMB per pile. You can choose whatever you like."
Chen Kexin quickly calculated in her mind and found that the price was indeed very cheap.
As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of ropes for ten years.
This time when she came to the mine, she didn't want to select so many rough materials containing jade, for fear that the mine owner would go back on his word and the truth would be revealed.
There is nothing wrong with buying piles of raw materials like this.
The truck has a load capacity of four tons and has to carry people, so just select three piles of raw materials.
Thinking of this, she asked frankly: "We will select three piles of raw materials and leave. Mine owner, can you please find a guide to transport the three piles of raw materials?"
She didn't dare to use Ayong. If she couldn't find another guide, she wouldn't be able to transport him even if she paid for one.
The mine owner nodded and said, "Okay, you choose."
Chen Kexin said hurriedly: "Mine owner, please send the car and guide here in half an hour. We will pay after loading. Thank you!"
The mine owner waved his hand unhappily and took his people away.
Seeing that there was no one around, Chen Kexin walked over to the piles of raw materials and took pictures of the melons. She soon discovered that out of ten times of taking pictures, three out of ten melons contained good stuff.
I know in my heart that this pile of raw materials is good!
I continued to take pictures and found that the quality of the first few piles of raw materials was similar.
Soon after, it was discovered that the quality of several piles of raw materials near the mine was not very good?
It would be good if one out of ten pieces of rough material contains jade.
Thinking about what the mine owner said about prospecting, could it be that this wave of jade mines has been almost mined, and the mine owner is eager to find new veins?
That should be it!
At this time, several miners walked out of the mine.
I saw their dark and thin faces covered with sweat, they were wearing tattered clothes, and they were pushing the carts with great effort.
The cart was filled with woolen materials, which were obviously very heavy.
Chen Kexin saw these people unloading the raw materials and placing them in piles.
After a few miners left, she walked over and patted the rough stones. She couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart. These rough stones were really not very good. Not even one out of ten had any feel to it.
I muttered to myself: I should hurry up and select the three piles of raw materials in front of me, and leave this troubled place as soon as possible.
She walked back to the pile of raw materials in front where she had just touched the melon, moved the raw materials that felt good to the selected pile of raw materials, and secretly moved the Xibei goods of similar size to other piles of raw materials.
While they were constantly replacing the original with the new, they suddenly heard the sound of "crackling" from a wooden warehouse coming from the foot of the mountain.
Everyone looked down in surprise and saw several trucks appearing outside the barbed wire at the foot of the mountain. Many men in military uniforms and holding weapons jumped out of the trucks.
When they saw that he was dressed similarly to the people they saw on the opposite mountain, they couldn't help but groan inwardly.
