Chapter 347 10,000 Stones
Cao Erdan smiled, not arguing with her, and simply asked:
"Sister Lan, just tell me, are you going to let me have this stone or not? If you're not going to let me have it, I don't want it anymore, you two can trade it yourselves."
"Then you have to tell me, what's the use of this stone?"
Cao Erdan was just telling the truth:
"This is very likely a Six Ding Essence Stone, used for alchemy and weapon crafting. It's useless to you, but in the hands of a cultivator, its value cannot be measured in monetary terms."
Lan Lan realized that she really didn't know how to use it.
However, this doesn't stop me from taking them and reselling them to make money.
But seeing Cao Erdan looking into her deep eyes, she felt too embarrassed to refuse him.
"Okay, I'll have him send it over."
At that moment, a reply came from the other end:
"Boss Lan, if you want it, how about I give you ten thousand yuan?"
Wang Yutian clearly did not know the value of the Six Ding Essence Stone.
Cao Erdan nodded:
"Transfer the money to him and confirm it. If it's real, I'll give him a tip. If it's fake, I'll only lose 10,000 yuan."
Ten thousand yuan is a small amount for Lan Lan and Cao Erdan.
Transfer the money directly.
The other party didn't receive it for a while, probably realizing they had asked for too little.
However, because he was a long-time customer of Lanlan, he dared not raise prices again.
After hesitating for a moment, I accepted it anyway.
"Mr. Lan, I've saved this for you. Are you coming to pick it up, or should I bring it to you?"
Lan Lan replied:
"If you have time, please send it to Baoyuexuan for me."
Cao Erdan had already put on his clothes.
The two walked out, heading to Baoyuexuan to wait.
When they arrived downstairs, Cao Erdan got into the car, and Lan Lan sat in the passenger seat.
They fastened their seatbelts together, their hands touching.
Lan Lan's hand was grabbed by Cao Erdan.
"What are you doing?"
Lan Lan was startled.
Cao Erdan, however, kept his eyes fixed ahead and took her pulse with his hand:
"Your hands are so cold. You seem to be a bit weak. Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Lan Lan shook off his hand:
"Hmph, it's all because of you!"
Cao Erdan laughed and said, "Are you jealous? Have you fallen for me?"
"Pah! Who likes you? You scumbag!"
As he cursed, his face involuntarily turned red again.
My heart started racing.
You bastard, if you just say it like that, who would admit it!
Cao Erdan also smiled:
"It's a good thing you don't like me, otherwise I would feel that I'm too fickle for you and I would be afraid of hurting your feelings!"
Lan Lan turned her head to the side, afraid that Cao Erdan would notice her blushing.
But in her heart she was thinking, actually, it's normal for a capable man like him to spend a little.
As long as he has me in his heart, I am content.
Cao Erdan was secretly amused by her shy expression.
He wasn't in a hurry to get closer to her.
Cao Erdan's current pleasure lies in the process of picking up beautiful women.
Men's pleasure isn't just about the pleasure during sex; the foreplay of soaking can also bring a sense of novelty.
Otherwise, if you see a beautiful woman and immediately book a room to sleep with her, what's the difference between that and visiting a brothel?
Simmering over low heat brings out the flavor.
Cao Erdan drove to Baoyuexuan.
Before the two of them got out of the car, Lan Lan's phone rang.
It was Wang Yutian's furious voice coming from the other end:
"Mr. Lan, I'm sorry, I can't sell you this stone. Our village chief took it by force."
"What do you mean?"
“The village chief, Zhao Kun, said he wanted it, threw a thousand yuan at me and took it. When I refused to give it back, he beat me up!”
Cao Erdan's eyes widened:
"Holy crap, this is robbery! Let's go check it out!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Lan thought to herself, "Who is this ungrateful bastard who dares to snatch the thing that Cao Erdan has his eye on?"
At this time, Lan Lan did not fully understand Cao Erdan's strength.
I had no idea he was a ruthless killer.
However, they also knew that Cao Erdan was not someone a small village chief could afford to offend.
Even powerful figures and rich young masters were dealt with by Cao Erdan, so how much power can a small village chief have?
It all depends on whether this village chief knows what's good for him, otherwise he's going to be in trouble.
Cao Erdan drove straight to the outskirts, following the directions Lan Lan had given him.
Shili Village is not far from Nantong City; it only takes half an hour to get there from outside the city.
As soon as the car entered the village, someone asked about Wang Yutian's house, and immediately someone led the way.
When they arrived at Wang Yutian's house, they saw many villagers gathered at the base of the wall, talking in hushed tones.
As soon as someone entered Wang Yutian's house, they immediately began to speculate:
"Wow, this guy drives a nice car. Could it be that the Yutian family sent someone?"
"What's the use of finding someone? Doesn't Village Chief Zhao Kun have anyone at home? The town mayor is his cousin, and his cousin's brother-in-law works at the Municipal Safety Management Bureau. He's a tough guy!"
"If you ask me, Yutian is just wasting his time looking for people. Don't provoke Zhao Kun, or he'll be forced to leave Shili Village and lose his job at the mine."
"Yes, sometimes it's better to just be patient and things will calm down."
"Besides, the person he found is too young. How much ability can a child have!"
These people are making wild guesses here, all thinking that Cao Erdan and Lan Lan are reinforcements that Wang Yutian has brought.
Cao Erdan and Lan Lan entered Wang Yutian's house.
They were truly destitute.
There wasn't a single decent thing in the room.
Several close neighbors and fellow villagers were inside the house comforting the young man who had no parents.
"Yutian, the village chief at least gave you a thousand yuan, but he won't give you any money. What good are a few stones to you?"
"Yutian, try to think more positively. As the saying goes, the common people can't fight against the officials."
"Yes, yes, yes, suffering a loss is actually a gain!"
As soon as they saw outsiders arrive, they immediately shut up.
They were afraid that the village chief's men would hear them talking.
Only when they saw that it was Wang Yutian's friend did they feel relieved.
Cao Erdan took one look and saw that Wang Yutian, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, was an honest and simple man.
His face was bruised and his body covered in footprints, clearly indicating that he had been beaten.
He saw Lan Lan arrive and looked embarrassed.
"Mr. Lan, I'm so sorry, it wasn't my fault for breaking the contract. I've already refunded your 10,000 yuan, please accept it."
Cao Erdan continued:
"No way! We've already paid you, so the stone is ours. I'm here to get the stone; I don't need any money!"
Wang Yutian was in an even more difficult position:
"I already told Boss Lan that someone else took the stone!"
Cao Erdan angrily said:
"That's stealing my stone! You don't need to worry about it, it's none of your business! I'm going to go to your village chief and get it back."
Cao Erdan started walking out as he spoke.
Wang Yutian quickly called him:
"Young man, don't be impulsive. Zhao Kun is a very domineering person. You'll only be wasting your time going there."
As he spoke, he pulled a hexagonal stone from his pocket:
"I'll keep one here, and he took five. Take them if you like, I don't want any money back!"
Cao Erdan took it and looked at it.
That's absolutely right, it really is the Six Ding Refined Stone!
However, six pieces of the Six Ding Essence Stone are needed together to refine the Six Ding Divine Fire.
Don't even mention one yuan, even five yuan wouldn't make a difference!
Cao Erdan put the piece in his pocket.
He took out one million in cash directly from his storage ring:
"Brother Wang, I'll take your stone. And this million is a gift from me!"
"crash"
More than 20 kilograms of banknotes were thrown onto Wang Yutian's bed.
Everyone in the room was furious.
These country folk have never seen so much money before.
The richest man in the house was Old Liu, who raised pigs; he had over 300,000 yuan in savings.
However, they are all stored away; no one has brought them back to put them here and count them.
When the old man saw that Wang Yutian had given him a million for a single stone, he almost breathed his last.
He worked diligently for most of his life and saved more than 300,000 yuan.
It's not even as valuable as a stone that Wang Yutian, that orphan, picked up.
