The fortune teller who set up a stall became the first strategist of the Republic of China

Liu Shidao looked at Gao Qingqiu in confusion.

"If someone wants it and the price is right, you should sell it. If you keep it, it will just be a pile of scrap metal."

Liu Shidao was stunned. How did the fortune teller know about his family affairs?

……

Gao Qingqiu was not talking about taking over the restaurant.

Liu Shidao once dug up an iron lump, washed it, and kept it at home.

Not long ago, an antique dealer happened to pass by his house and came in to ask for water. He happened to see it and said he wanted to buy it.

However, Liu Shidao asked for too high a price and they failed to reach an agreement after several attempts.

The antique dealer refused to give up, but in fact he was also a half-baked person.

In one month, various bronze artifacts shipped from Luoyang will flood this cultural relics market.

At that time, who would buy Liu Shidao’s “iron lump”?

Therefore, Gao Qingqiu advised him to take action as soon as possible.

If Liu Shidao had listened to Gao Qingqiu's advice, he could have earned thousands of dollars.

……

Liu Shidao turned and left.

"There are still 9 dollars that haven't been given to me." Gao Qingqiu said in a hoarse voice.

Liu Shidao turned around and handed him nine silver dollars. "Take it first. If the iron lump doesn't sell for a high price, I'll ask you to return the ten silver dollars!"

"Don't worry, the antique dealer will be back at noon today. As long as the price he offers is not less than 700 oceans, you should act quickly, understand?" Gao Qingqiu said patiently.

Liu Shidao ignored him and left.

A dozen days later, Cui Zhan returned from Gansu.

He bought more than 800 live sheep.

He asked someone to build a simple sheep pen on the outskirts of Yunjian City and drove the sheep into it.

The next day, he read the Yunjian News and learned that the warlords in the west and the north had started fighting again for territory.

In the era of frequent wars, it was very difficult to transport a sheep from Gansu to Yunjian City, the easternmost metropolis.

A few days later, the price of a sheep in the market rose from 10 yuan to 100 yuan.

Anyway, the poor people are reluctant to eat mutton, but the rich people have plenty of money and can eat it every day without worrying about the price.

……

Cui Zhan went to the city in person, contacted several mutton restaurants, and sold all the sheep.

Only when you have the ocean in your hands can you feel at ease.

As for prices, they are unstable.

Just when you think it is touching, it falls.

In addition, each sheep needs to eat grass every day, so the cost is not small.

Therefore, his decision was correct.

He went to Tianqiao, found Gao Qingqiu, and talked about buying and selling sheep, and made money.

Gao Qingqiu narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Save all the money and spend it slowly. When you go back, pretend to be poor and don't show off. When you're poor, you'll know who's sincere to you and who's just being perfunctory."

"Yeah." Cui Zhan nodded vigorously.

"If you have nothing to do, you can learn how to be a barber from your father. If he won't teach you, go learn how to make brown sugar shortbread from Master Zhao. Remember, food is a basic need and a more stable way to make money. Buying and selling rice or sheep is just temporary speculation and won't last."

What else could Cui Zhan say? He could only nod desperately.

Cui Zhan wanted to take Gao Qingqiu to a restaurant for dinner, but he refused.

"When you have the ability in the future, just help those who are suffering. Do good deeds, and your path will become wider and wider." Gao Qingqiu smiled with narrowed eyes.

Cui Zhan bowed to him and left.

After a while, Wang Ruyi came and said, "Mr. Gao, I want to participate in gambling on stones. Can you help me take a look?"
