Chapter 270 Selling Timber
Chapter 270 Selling Timber
“Buffalo, don’t be lazy.”
“There are still a lot of bricks over there. You can move them all at once.”
Xia Heping lay on the lawn, letting Baby-5 massage his shoulders while giving orders to Buffalo.
Buffalo: “.”
“Damn it, why am I the only one moving?” Looking at the two people who were extremely leisurely, he couldn’t help but complain.
“Baby-5 is a girl. Can you bear to let a little girl do such a menial job?” Xia He glanced at him and asked.
“Then…then you are a man, why don’t you come to help?”
“No, how old am I?”
Xia He sat up from the ground, looked at Buffalo with an incredulous look and said, “You actually let a three-year-old child go to work? Do you have any conscience? This is absolutely insane!”
Buffalo: “.”
What is conscience?
Can you eat?
and also……
Are you three years old?
If you tell this to others, even a dog won’t believe it!
Buffalo placed the hundreds of red bricks on his back at the designated location. In just one trip, he did the work of more than 20 people. Naturally, he attracted the attention of everyone in the entire construction site.
“That fat boy is quite amazing…”
“I think we should just hire him. I’m afraid the others won’t be useful.”
“It’s almost like a monster.”
The two supervisors whispered to each other.
So, about two hours later.
With his outrageous strength, Buffalo completed all the work for the day four hours ahead of schedule and received a total of 50,000 Baileys as a reward. Under the helpless gazes of the other workers, he followed Xia He and walked away quickly.
……
“Only 50,000 Baileys, that’s too little…” Buffalo weighed the purse in his hand and complained speechlessly.
“Just be content. On a poorer island, many people can’t earn 50,000 Beli a month.” Xia He said to him after hearing this.
Take Koizumi Village where he previously lived, for example.
Before the arrival of Xiahe, the crops that the villagers worked hard to grow all year round were taken to the outer islands to sell and then distributed equally to every villager. In the end, they received less than 30,000 berries.
It can be seen that for most people, these 50,000 Baileys can already be considered a “huge sum of money”.
“I’m hungry, let’s go eat something.” Buffalo said.
“Still eating? You spent more than 100,000 Baileys by yourself at noon. This is the 50,000 you just earned, and it hasn’t even warmed up yet. I’m afraid it won’t even be enough to fill your teeth later.” Xia He snatched the purse and put it in his arms.
“What should we do? We can’t go hungry, right?”
Buffalo pouted in grievance.
Wouldn’t it be more painful not being able to eat than killing him?
“Don’t worry. These 50,000 Baileys are start-up capital. Just wait and see. I promise to give you a delicious midnight snack before midnight.” Xia He grinned and assured Buffalo.
In fact, if he used the 50,000 Baileys to buy some cheaper ingredients, and then go to the beach to catch some fish or something, he could cook a big meal by himself.
But that would be too troublesome. He had cooked too much. Now, unless it was absolutely necessary or he was in a particularly good mood, Xia He usually would not cook.
“Really?” Buffalo’s eyes sparkled when he heard this.
“Fake.” Xia He said, holding a homemade cigarette in his mouth, and then walked towards a shipyard on the commercial street.
About ten minutes later, Xia He asked the boss which type of wood had the highest price, and immediately bought a few of the planks. Then, together with Baby-5 and Buffalo, they appeared in the woods behind the town.
“What do you want to do with these woods?” baby-5 asked in confusion.
“Of course it’s to make money.”
If you want to make money, selling chemicals is probably the quickest way to make money.
But it just so happened that Xia He only brought two bottles of potion when he went out, and he used them all on Diamante. The rest… if nothing unexpected happened, it was most likely “taken away” by the navy.
He reached out and gently stroked the wooden board. After seeing the texture on it clearly, he picked up the fallen leaves on the ground and began to use [Turning Waste into Trees] to create a brand new piece out of thin air.
“Wow~~”
Baby-5 and Buffalo opened their eyes wide.
Ran Xiahe looked at the new wooden board and couldn’t help shaking his head.
It doesn’t feel right to the touch…
What the boss sold him was Qinghe wood at 20,000 Baileys per piece. The wood was green in color, with some river ripple patterns on it, and had a faint wood fragrance. Although it was not suitable for shipbuilding, it was the best choice for making furniture or laying decks and floors.
“What I conjured is still too crude. If I sell it, it won’t be worth 20,000 Baileys…”
Not to mention 20,000 Baileys, I don’t think anyone would even buy 2,000 Baileys.
So he broke the thing into several pieces and threw it directly on the ground. Then he picked up a piece of wood chip and continued to transform it into a new piece of wood.
so repeatedly.
About an hour later.
After expending about one tenth of his physical strength, Xia He finally found the feeling and successfully made the Qinghe wood board.
“Use the remaining 30,000 Baileys to buy a cart in town.” Xia He threw the remaining money in his purse to Buffalo, then sat on the ground and began to mass-produce Qinghe wood planks without distraction.
……
It’s the same shipyard as before.
Looking at the three kids who had just come to the factory more than two hours ago and now ran in again pushing a cart of Qinghe wooden boards, the boss began to doubt his own eyes for a moment.
“What…what’s going on?”
“Boss, we are here to sell lumber.”
Under Xia He’s instructions, Buffalo walked forward and overturned the cart to the ground.
“There are a total of one hundred pieces of Qinghe wood. I will sell them to you at the price of fifteen thousand per piece, and you will still have a profit of five thousand. What do you think?” Xia He grinned and looked at the shipyard owner with a smile.
“Forehead……”
The shipyard owner was stunned for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he replied, “Wait a moment, I need to check the authenticity of the wood.”
“Just check it out.”
Xia He was very confident that the wooden boards he made using his own abilities would definitely not have any problems.
however……
After the shipyard owner sent the planks into the inspection room for careful examination, he sent them out with a look of regret. He looked at Xia He and said, “I’m sorry, after my inspection, most of these planks are fake. But I can buy them at a price of 200 Baileys per piece. What do you think?”
The words fell.
“Baby-5, kill him.”
Xia He spoke in a very cold tone.
