Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 182 It’s been a while since you last saw me

Since the boss wanted to build a road, Tian Yizi naturally moved the plan forward.

The road began to be built, and Xu Yue took the opportunity to set up the formation, which was no longer a difficult task.

However, the project is quite large and it will definitely not be completed in a short time.

Xu Yue was not in a hurry. He just needed to bury bricks at the nodes of the formation.

Once the road is built, it won’t be too late to find an opportunity to set up the formation.

In the blink of an eye, at the end of September, Lu Zhenyu called and made an appointment.

"Cousin, Sister Ruoxi!"

Xu Yue didn't expect to meet Xiong Yan, and couldn't help but look at Lu Zhenyu next to him.

Lu Zhenyu scratched his head awkwardly.

"Let's go!"

Xu Yue didn't say anything.

As a cousin, he has no say in this matter.

What's wrong with people having a love relationship?
Fate is such an ingenious thing.

Xu Yue went to Dianzhou for the first time.

Instead of flying, they chose to drive.

Some of them are self-driving tours.

It would have taken them three days to get there, even though they could have reached the destination in ten hours.

"Cousin, you're not here to gamble on stones, are you?" Xiong Yan said, "Do you know how to look? Take it easy, one cut could lead to heaven or hell!"

"Even gods cannot distinguish jade, how could I possibly look at it?" Xu Yue said, "I just come to play with it, to satisfy my curiosity, and at most buy a few pieces to play with."

"How much is it?" Xiong Yan asked. "One piece could cost tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions!"

"That little money is nothing to Brother Yue." Lu Zhenyu said with a smile, "Brother Yue can consider buying some cut ones."

He didn't know why Xu Yue bought the jade, but there was really no need to gamble on the stone.

It is undoubtedly safer to buy the cut ones directly.

Xu Yue nodded. He naturally knew that Lu Zhenyu meant well.

Xu Yue picked up those jadeite raw stones and felt them, but he felt nothing.

Not just one or two, all of them are like that.

Xu Yue could only feel the breath of the outer layer of stone.

Even gods cannot cut off jade, not to mention that he is just a farmer-level Qi-refining practitioner at the third level.

However, those who opened the windows felt something.

This is also due to the Hunyuan Qi in the body.

So Xu Yue planned to buy some window-opening ones to take back with him.

He didn't expect to make money from this.

That's not necessary.

Can you make money by gambling on stones and growing ginseng?

Is there any kind of ginseng with a higher safety factor?

When it comes to gambling on stones, a big tree attracts the wind.

Xu Yue had no intention of showing off.

He came here with only one purpose, to get some jade to practice on.

Of course, if you have good jade, it’s a good idea to keep it.

Just keep a low profile.

Before Xu Yue came, he had learned about the prices of various types of jade, but he did not buy it immediately. He just took a look first.

Then I spent more than four million to buy a few windows.

Lu Zhenyu came here with a mission, so it was impossible for him to accompany Xu Yue and the others the whole time.

I helped them get familiar with the environment and then went about my own business.

Xiong Yan did not go with them, but followed Xu Yue and Zhang Ruoxi.

"Are you together?"

Xu Yue couldn't help but ask.

He was a little unsure.

It seems that we are closer than ordinary friends, otherwise we wouldn't come here to play.

But in terms of words and actions, they don’t seem to be as intimate as a boyfriend and girlfriend.

There wasn't even a single room in the hotel.

"No!" Xiong Yan blushed and said, "He said you and Sister Ruoxi would come and invited me to come, so I followed you?"

"Don't you know what he's thinking?" Xu Yue said.

"I know!" Xiong Yan said, "I had a good first impression of him. But I have to get to know him better!"

"That's not like the rationality of someone your age."

Xu Yue couldn't help but sigh.

The two of them really hit it off.

Lu Zhenyu is pursuing Xiong Yan, but Xiong Yan is worried that she has entrusted her trust to the wrong person and wants to get in touch with him for a while first.

That's fine too.

Xu Yue had a good impression of Lu Zhenyu, but after all, they had not had much contact with him and did not know him well enough.

Zhang Ruoxi couldn't help but glance at Xu Yue.

As expected of cousins, they are so rational in dealing with feelings.

Xu Yue was like this back then, and Xiong Yan is like this now.

It's good for girls to be cautious and rational.

"Take it easy!" Xu Yue said, "Don't make yourself green."

"I didn't confiscate his gifts or anything!" Xiong Yan said, "Do I have to agree to someone's pursuit? I'm not even allowed to test him."

Xu Yue smiled silently. He didn't know much about the properties of green tea.

Never had any contact with it.

The three of them wandered around and visited all the places worth visiting nearby.

"Busy working?"

After playing around, Lu Zhenyu's work was done.

"As a small family, naturally there won't be so many problems." Lu Zhenyu said with a smile, "Besides, I'm just a bystander."

Lu Zhenyu's family is in the jade and jewelry business, so his wealth is definitely not bad, but compared with those top ten jewelry brands, there is obviously still a big gap.

"When are we leaving?" Xu Yue asked.

If Xu Yue hadn't been waiting for Lu Zhenyu, he would have probably left.

The purpose of this trip has been achieved and what I wanted to buy has been bought.

It wasn't a quiet purchase, but it didn't cause any commotion either.

"Anytime is fine." Lu Zhenyu said, "Do you want to go back directly, or visit those scenic spots?"

"Since I'm here, I have to go for a walk."

Xu Yue glanced at Zhang Ruoxi and said with a smile.

Since I'm out and I drove here, I naturally have to take a look when I go back.

You have to check out the famous scenic spots in Dianzhou, and if you pass by Qianzhou, you must also go and see it.

Zhang Ruoxi has already prepared a strategy.

"Ding dong!"

"Ding dong!"

As soon as Xu Yue finished speaking, the text message ringtone rang, and it was two payments of 5 million yuan arriving.

Where did it come from?

Xu Yue naturally knew it.

He really forgot about it.

However, even if he was not there, his grandfather Xu Chengyang could handle it.

"Breaking through 100?"

Zhang Ruoxi took a look and then asked.

"It should be broken." Xu Yue said, "After I finish my work, I will accompany you back to Yanjing."

After traveling all the way, we returned to Gong'an City in mid-October.

"Zhenyu, is it okay for me to take those stones to your house to be cut?" Xu Yue asked.

"No problem!" Lu Zhenyu said, "Why isn't Brother Yue cutting it over there?"

Xu Yue just smiled.

Do you believe me when I say I don’t want to be too high-profile?
Seeing that Xu Yue didn't say anything, Lu Zhenyu stopped asking.

Just borrowing the machine.

However, after those stones were cut out, he seemed to understand something.

"Brother Yue, you are simply..."

Lu Zhenyu looked at the pieces of jade in front of him and didn't know what to say.

Some are big and some are small.

The small ones are only as big as a fist, but the big ones are as big as two footballs.

The key point is that Xu Yue's stones are not big. Although they all have windows, they are really not very good in Lu Zhenyu's eyes.

But who would have thought it would turn out like this.

A big increase!
"One cut to heaven, or one cut to hell?" Xiong Yan couldn't help but ask, "My brother spent millions on these stones."

"The kind that even heaven can't accommodate." Lu Zhenyu said, "Brother Yue actually has such good eyesight?"

"I was just lucky." Xu Yue said, "If I sell these pieces of material, they will be worth tens of millions at most, which is only ten times the value."

When it comes to gambling on stones, not to mention the possibility of losing money with just one cut, it is not uncommon for the price to increase by several times, hundreds of times, or even thousands of times.

Ten times is nothing!
"You're making a window." Lu Zhenyu said, "It's quite impressive that you can increase the price by so much. By the way, Brother Yue, are you willing to sell these materials? Even some?"

The price of windows is high, so the increase will naturally not be too big.

"Forget it!" Xu Yue said, "I still have use for these things. Please help me cut them into jade pendants. Just like the one I bought last time."

"What?"

Lu Zhenyu was stunned by Xu Yue's words.

"What a waste!" Lu Zhenyu said, "Especially this!"

Lu Zhenyu came back to his senses and pointed at the fist-sized piece of material.

Don't be fooled by its small size, it is of the highest value.

"It's such a waste to make a jade pendant. It can't be fully utilized at all." Lu Zhenyu said, "Brother Yue, why don't you give me these materials and I'll give you a jade pendant of equivalent value."

"Can you make the decision?" Xu Yue said with a smile.

He naturally had no objection to this.

He just needs the jade token.

If these materials are cut into jade pendants, it will indeed cause a huge waste.

"It should be fine. If you use these materials well, you can make a lot of money." Lu Zhenyu said, "Wait a minute, I'll make a phone call."

Lu Zhenyu didn't hide anything, and there was no need to hide anything.

He offered a jade pendant of equal value, and the price was naturally the price of the material as well as the price of the jade pendant.

Maybe both sides make money.

But Xu Yue is definitely more cost-effective.

Not long after, Lu Zhenyu came with two people.

A middle-aged man and an old man.

The middle-aged man was somewhat similar to Lu Zhenyu.

"Dad, this is Xu Yue, Zhang Ruoxi, and Xiong Yan."

"This is my father, Lu Jiadong, the head of Lu's Jewelry. He happens to be in Gong'an City today."

Lu Zhenyu introduced them and they exchanged some pleasantries.

As for the old man who came in, he was already attracted by the pieces of material on the table.

Lu Jiadong still has an impression of Xu Yue.

The owner of Taoyuan Farm and Taoyuan Agricultural Products Market.

Although he is not in the catering industry, he knows how famous it is in the high-end catering industry.

The key is that he has eaten food from Taoyuan Farm.

unforgettable.

After chatting for a while, Lu Jiadong was also attracted by those pieces of material.

"How about an estimated price of 60 million?" Lu Jiadong said, "We should make about 10% profit on these materials. And since you want a jade pendant of equal value, how about we give you an additional 20% discount?"

"it is good!"

Xu Yue nodded.

He only spent about four million on those pieces of material.

Although he didn't know much, he still had an estimate of the value of those pieces of material.

Sixty million, higher than his own estimate.

As to whether the profit was only 10%, Xu Yue was not sure.

There should be more than that.

It is said online that the profit margin of jade is between 10% and 50%.

Of course, there are many factors that influence this.

And if the jade token is sold at a 20% discount, there will definitely be a profit.

This is a win-win situation.

But Xu Yue can't just not change it because of this, right?

If you bargain, you might be able to get some, but there's no need for that.

"Zhenyu, take Mr. Xu to choose a jade pendant. If the store doesn't have it, we can get it from another store."

Lu Jiadong was a little surprised. He had already prepared to bargain, but he didn't expect Xu Yue to agree right away.

What is the reason?
Xu Yue doesn’t understand the value of jade?
maybe.

But sometimes bargaining has nothing to do with whether you understand or not.

Lu Jiadong looked at his son and then at Xiong Yan.

How could he not know that his own son was pursuing this girl?

He had already found out about the girl's family background.

Very general.

However, her cousin is this Xu Yue.

This is a great man.

Not long after returning to his hometown to start a business, he has made quite a splash, so you can imagine his ability.

Have connections in the city.

It is said that he also has connections in Yanjing.

Lu Jiadong couldn't help but take another look at Zhang Ruoxi who was next to Xu Yue.

"We'll just leave you alone?"

After choosing the jade pendant, Xu Yue prepared to go back and then said to Xiong Yan.

A jade pendant worth tens of millions is definitely not available in one store.

Perhaps all the Lu Jewelry stores combined cannot hold all of them.

However, Xu Yue was not in a hurry.

Take what’s in the store, and they’ll bring the rest to you later.

"Do you think I'm your child?" Xiong Yan said, "I'll come play with you guys from time to time."

"I thought you were going to visit your grandpa." Xu Yue curled his lips and said, "Let's go!"

When they came back, Xiong Yan and Lu Zhenyu slept separately in the hotel, but they were really together.

He and Zhang Ruoxi were both witnesses.

After this period of contact, Xu Yue had a good impression of Lu Zhenyu.

Xiong Yan thinks this is even more true.

However, who can tell whether it will go to the end?
After all, love is a matter between two people, but marriage is a matter between two families.

"Then the price should be able to be raised a bit." Zhang Ruoxi said, "Lu Zhenyu's father should be prepared to bargain. After you agreed immediately, he couldn't hide his surprise."

"This is much better than using the materials directly to make jade plaques." Xu Yue said, "It's mutually beneficial. Who knows if we won't cooperate again in the future? I just estimated that it's at least 30% more."

"So many jade tokens, enough to keep you busy for a long time, right?" Zhang Ruoxi said with a smile.

Zhang Ruoxi couldn't guess what Xu Yue was thinking.

However, there is really no need for that.

After all, they are not doing related business, so there is naturally no need to be so petty.

As for what the jade token was used for, Zhang Ruoxi naturally knew.

After being away for half a month, I came back and found that the road to the vegetable garden had been repaired, and other places were almost finished as well.

Guo Tianyou and Yu Suihai have already left.

"Uncle San went to learn how to drive?"

Xu Yue asked Xu Chengyang casually.

"We're going to Jincheng." Xu Chengyang said, "We still have more than a dozen ginseng plants that have broken the hundred-year efficacy. It's up to you to decide what to do with them!"

How to deal with it?

Apart from giving three plants as gifts when I go to Yanjing, I can just keep the rest if I don’t need them.

Xu Yue said this and started packing his luggage with Zhang Ruoxi.

I have been away for such a long time and visited so many places this time, so of course I had to go shopping and bring some things for my family.

"what?"

Zhang Ruoxi looked at the "mosquito-killing array" and an idea seemed to flash through her mind.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yue asked.

"Chickens and ducks should eat some insects, right?" Zhang Ruoxi asked. "Do you think setting up a formation like this in the chicken and duck farms to attract the surrounding insects would save a lot of food?"

"It saves food, for sure," Xu Yue said, "but it also arouses suspicion! Have you forgotten that the incident at the Chuanlai Hotel attracted people from the special department?"

Zhang Ruoxi was stunned for a moment and smiled silently.

Xu Yue now has to deal with people from the special department when cooperating with them.

If someone finds something wrong as soon as they arrive, wouldn't that be an admission of guilt?
