Huang Hao and Du Xinran met Li Fugui in a teahouse.
Li Fugui was wearing black trousers and a gray T-shirt today. They looked brand new. Coupled with the leather bag under his armpit, he did not look like a coal miner but more like a small boss.
Li Fugui didn't say anything else after meeting Huang Hao. He placed a bag on the table and pushed it in front of Huang Hao.
Huang Hao opened the bag and saw that there were indeed three black charcoal balls.
"Why are there only three?" Huang Hao asked.
"Sigh, I bought these three from a colleague in Jiangxi. My colleagues are from all over the world, so it's troublesome to connect them!”Li Fugui sighed.
"Then do you know where the remaining black charcoal balls are?”Huang Hao asked.
"At that time, we found a total of twenty-one. Other than these three, there were five that we had already sold to you and the one at my house. Among the remaining twelve, seven of them have been found, but four of them are in the hands of a co-worker. He offered 10,000 yuan for one, and he wouldn't sell it for less than a cent.”Li Fugui said.
Huang Hao frowned when he heard that. What Huang Hao lacked the most right now was money. Moreover, once he agreed to buy these four for 10,000 yuan, then the five that Li Fugui had sold to Huang Hao for 2,000 yuan each and the three in front of him would have to increase the price to make up for the difference.
With this calculation, these 21 charcoal balls would require Huang Hao to fork out 210,000 yuan. Not to mention that Huang Hao didn't have that much money, even if Du Xinran emptied her purse, she wouldn't be able to fork out that much money.
However, Huang Hao immediately thought of an idea, so he smiled and said,"Although the coal mine that you used to work in has been closed down due to an accident, everyone knows that coal mines are a lucrative industry. When I heard that this coal mine had been closed down due to an accident, I told this news to an elder of mine. I estimate that this coal mine will be able to reopen within a month. How about this? As long as those people who hold the black charcoal balls sell them to me for 2,000 yuan, I can promise to let these people be the management of this coal mine. At the very least, they will be the captain. The salary will naturally increase by a lot."
Li Fugui's eyes immediately lit up when he heard Huang Hao's words." Mister Huang, are you serious?”
"Of course it's true!" Huang Hao said in a certain tone.
After getting Huang Hao's approval, Li Fugui slammed the table in excitement." Alright, leave it to me. Two thousand yuan each. I won't spend a single cent more from you. Thank you so much. My colleagues are basically resting at home. With this job, their lives are guaranteed again!"”
Seeing how excited Li Fugui was, Huang Hao immediately felt a sense of entertainment. However, Huang Hao immediately asked,"Oh right, you said that there are seven of the remaining eleven black charcoal balls. What about the other four?”
"Two of the other four were taken away by a Shaanxi worker. His house is in a remote location and I haven't been able to contact him yet. However, as long as I have time, I believe I can still find him.”Li Fugui said with some difficulty.
"What happened to the other two?" Huang Hao asked.
"The other two were sold to a rich businessman by one of my coworkers. I heard that the rich businessman gave this thing to a Japanese person. It's very likely that he has already taken it to Japan!”
When Huang Hao heard this, he immediately felt that it was troublesome. However, he had to take things one step at a time. Since there were still clues, he could still find the whereabouts of the item. It was just that the difficulty of getting it into his hands would increase by a lot.
After thinking for a while, Huang Hao said to Li Fugui,"Alright, we'll talk about this later. Let's get those charcoal balls you can get first.”
"No problem. I'll help you find all of them in a month!”Li Fugui patted his chest and said.
At this moment, Huang Hao glanced at Du Xinran. Du Xinran took out 20,000 yuan from her bag and handed it to Huang Hao. Huang Hao took the money and stuffed it into Li Fugui's hands without hesitation. However, in reality, Huang Hao was still very pained. 20,000 yuan! According to Yu Xiaonan, he could buy 10,000 packets of potato chips, one packet a day, and he could eat them for decades.
After bidding farewell to Li Fugui, Du Xinran immediately pulled Huang Hao back home in a hurry. She seemed even more excited than Huang Hao.
As soon as she got home, Du Xinran immediately found a small hammer and knocked one of the black charcoal balls open. However, she was extremely depressed that there was nothing inside the first black charcoal ball except for the golden coal marrow.
Du Xinran was very unwilling to give up. She immediately took another charcoal ball and knocked it open. After this charcoal ball was knocked open, a refreshing fragrance immediately filled the entire room. Huang Hao and Du Xinran were instantly overjoyed.
However, when Du Xinran poured out the liquid inside the black ball, the two of them were dumbfounded. The liquid inside the black ball was not golden coal marrow, but a purple liquid.
"What is this?" Huang Hao asked.
Du Xinran shook her head." I don't know either. The jade slip didn't introduce it, but it smells so good. It should be something good, right?"”
"Who knows!" "Let's pour it out first and see if there's anything else inside."”
Du Xinran nodded and poured all the purple liquid into a white porcelain bottle. However, after pouring all the purple liquid, the two of them didn't find anything else.
She didn't find anything else after two consecutive attempts. Du Xinran hugged the last charcoal ball and didn't dare to make a move.
"Why are both of them empty? The last one couldn't be empty, right?”Du Xinran said gloomily.
Although Huang Hao was also a little disappointed, he still teased Du Xinran," This is probably a problem with her character!”
Du Xinran snorted." You have a good character. I'll let you be the last one!"”As he spoke, he passed the small hammer to Huang Hao.
Huang Hao didn't stand on ceremony with her. Seeing Du Xinran knock on the door one after another, he had long wanted to try reaching out his hand. There was nothing more exciting than discovering a treasure himself.
"Pa!" Huang Hao knocked open the last charcoal ball. Huang Hao first looked at the hole and found that the liquid inside was golden coal marrow and not purple liquid. He immediately became more certain. The last time he obtained five charcoal balls, all of them contained golden coal marrows, and four of those five charcoal balls contained other treasures. In addition, Du Xinran had just knocked open a charcoal ball that only contained coal marrows. In other words, four of the six charcoal balls that contained coal marrows contained other treasures. In this way, as long as the charcoal ball contained coal marrows, there was a 66.67% chance that it contained other treasures. This probability was already very high.
Huang Hao carefully poured the coal marrow into a white porcelain bottle. After pouring all the coal marrow into the porcelain bottle, Huang Hao took a deep breath. He then looked into the black ball of coal under the light. With a look, Huang Hao immediately revealed a happy expression. There was something inside.
Huang Hao took the small hammer and carefully smashed open the empty black charcoal ball. The things inside immediately revealed their specific form. They were eight golden cocoons the size of soybeans.
Seeing this cocoon, Huang Hao immediately thought of a type of insect recorded in the jade scroll.
"Peeping Insect!" Huang Hao and Du Xinran said at the same time.
