Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea
Chapter 227 Getting rich feels like a dream
Fu Wan and Fu Ming looked at each other. Although there were few people around, it was the capital after all, so they didn't expect any bad guys.
The two of them bravely followed the man into the house. When they stepped over the threshold, Fu Wan noticed that above the small door, there was a wooden sign the size of a child's palm, with the number 156 written crookedly on it.
? ? ? ?
May I ask?
This sign is so small, are you afraid of being seen?!
Naturally, she couldn't express the complaints in her heart, so Fu Wan could only mutter a few words in her mind and then look around the situation in the yard.
Although the gate to this courtyard is small, it leads to a different world once you enter.
The yard is very large and has a pomegranate tree covered with green leaves. Although the house behind the tree is not a building, the bricks and tiles are exquisitely designed and have a historical feel at first glance.
Is this... a courtyard house?
Before the brother and sister had time to think about it, there was a noise in the house.
Fu Wan looked over and saw the man pushing an old man in a wooden wheelchair. It dawned on her that no wonder, except for the courtyard door, all the thresholds of the houses had been sawed off. It must have been to make it easier for the old man to come in and out.
"You two young comrades, were you the ones Feng Ji called here?"
As soon as the old man spoke, Fu Wan felt that his voice sounded familiar. She looked again and saw that this was clearly the old man who had just shown her the way!
Just now he was under the tree at the entrance of the alley. In just a short while, he actually arrived in the yard before me.
There must be some small paths in between that they don’t know about!
She took out the ring Feng Ji had given her and handed it forward.
"Hello, you must be the Third Master, we were introduced by Uncle Feng."
"Stop being so polite and bring the things over here so I can see them!"
Fu Wan was interrupted by his words and thought that this man seemed to have a worse temper than Feng Ji.
But it's normal for people in this line of work to have some temper.
She gestured to Fu Ming to open his carry-on luggage and took out a small cloth bag from it.
In the small cloth bag was a fist-sized piece of ambergris, which Fu Wan had specially packed as a sample for Mr. Ning San to see.
The thing was handed to Ning San but he did not reach out to take it. Instead, the man next to him took it, checked it and made sure it was okay, then held it close to Ning San's nose.
Fu Wan realized something was wrong at this moment. She looked carefully and found that Mr. Ning San was actually blind!
A blind man with difficulty walking, it's no wonder he has a bad temper.
The bad-tempered Ning San smelled the ambergris carefully, savored it for nearly a minute, and nodded with a smile on his face.
"Your ambergris is indeed of good quality and can be sold at a good price. Considering Feng Ji's kindness and the fact that you have come all this way, I'll give you three hundred and one gram for it."
Three hundred and one grams?
This thing is actually calculated by gram!
Fu Wan calculated in her mind that the ambergris she brought this time weighed at home and it totaled twelve pounds and six ounces.
If we go by this price, 300 per gram, and 500 grams per pound, the ambergris in their bag would be worth... more than one million!
Fu Wan calculated this number several times and found it a little unbelievable.
That’s one million, what a fortune!
However, this is the income under ideal conditions. The quality of the ambergris in the bag is different. The piece just taken out is an intermediate color.
Not that white, nor that heavy gray-black.
"What? Too little?"
Ning San was playing with the piece of ambergris lovingly. He didn't hear Fu Wan talking, and since he couldn't see her, he guessed that Fu Wan might be dissatisfied with the small amount of money.
"Comrade, this is a lot of money. The piece from Hong Kong last month may not be as good as yours, but this is Chinese money, much more valuable than the money from Hong Kong!"
"A jin weighs 500 grams. This alone is worth tens of thousands!"
Ning San kindly reminded them because he thought the two people might not have any idea of how much a gram weighed.
Fu Wan saw that he had misunderstood and hurriedly explained, "No, Third Master, I don't know if Uncle Feng told you that we have a little ambergris besides the one in your hand."
besides?
Ning San remembered Feng Ji's call. He did say that there was a batch of ambergris. The piece in his hand was almost half a pound. He thought it was the only piece.
It turns out there is more.
Ning San was now interested, "You two are quite interesting. Ah Fu, go get it and let me see it."
Qin Fu responded. Seeing this, Fu Wan quickly took out a piece of ambergris from her bag. Qin Fu took it and just as he withdrew his hand, Fu Wan took out another piece from her bag.
Qin Fu: ...
Is this really the ambergris that is more valuable than gold, and not the cabbage grown in this young comrade's home?
The corners of his mouth twitched, and he simply grabbed the bag from Fu Wan's hand and brought it to Ning San.
Blind people have much sharper sense of smell and hearing than ordinary people. As soon as the bag of ambergris was handed over, Ning San smelled something wrong.
"Afu, why do I smell several types of ambergris?"
Qin Fu coughed softly, "Third Master, this fragrance... is indeed a bit too much."
It was more than just a bit too much. Ning San took out a piece with his hand, put it to his nose and smelled it, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
He put the one in his hand on the stone table at the side, took out another piece, and smelled it again. This time, he really couldn't stop smiling.
"Okay, okay, this guy Feng Ji knows that I like this ambergris, and he actually introduced me to a big client!"
"Ah Fu, put all these ambergris on the table and I'll sort them."
After saying that, he waved towards Fu Wan and the others, "Take a seat, don't be shy! Ah Fu, go get those two young comrades a glass of water!"
After that, he said with some righteousness: "I, an old man, don't like crowds, so Ah Fu is the only one who can do the work in this yard. If I neglect him, please bear with me!"
Fu Wan and Fu Ming didn't care about this at all. They also wanted to sell this thing quickly and go home early.
After Ah Fu poured out two glasses of water, Ning San also divided the ambergris on the table into three categories.
"Young comrade, I won't take advantage of you. This pile of ambergris has the strongest smell and is probably the whitest. I'll give you 500 per gram. The one in the middle is still 300 per gram, and the one next to it, which is the worst, I'll give you 150 per gram."
"This is the highest price I can offer. Although I like incense, my subordinates also need to eat, and I have to make some money."
The words were so clear and straightforward that Fu Wan didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement, "Okay! I trust you!"
Anyway, for her, this ambergris was blown by the wind!
Seeing that she was straightforward, Ning San didn't delay any further.
"Afu, go get the scale!"
Qin Fu took out a small scale from the house and weighed each piece. The best quality ambergris weighed 1400 jin (2600 kg), or 2300 grams; the medium quality weighed jin ( kg), or grams; and the worst quality weighed jin ( kg), or grams.
After a few more calculations on the abacus, the total came to 1.825 million yuan!
This number shocked Fu Ming so much that he couldn't even hold his luggage steady, and even Fu Wan felt like she was dreaming.
It’s really more than one million!
Ning San, however, was not surprised at all. Without even looking up, he ordered, "Afu, take the young comrade to remit the money!"
After that, he explained to Fu Wan in a friendly manner, "It's inconvenient to carry too much cash. You two young comrades are really brave to carry such expensive things like this.
I'll leave you my contact information. If you have something like this next time, give me a call before you come and I'll have Ah Fu send someone to pick you up!"
"I, Ning San, still have some respect in this capital. If you encounter any difficulties, just come to me or Ah Fu!"
