After a few days of dull life, it was already early May. Dai Xuan found a Sunday and learned how to drive from Aiguo Wang. On the morning of May 27th, he sat in Aiguo Wang's truck and left Guan City. Aiguo Wang was going to pick up the goods. He planned to stay in Guan City for two days and asked Aiguo Wang to help him write a recommendation letter for him to stay in a hotel.
The truck was driving on the road. Wang Aiguo said to Dai Xuan,""Chen Fukuang said that you should go to the third year of junior high school in early September, get a junior high school diploma next year, and then join the army.”
Dai Xuan thought for a moment and said,"Sure, I'll go. I don't have anything to do anyway." He had been in Mine 203 for more than a month now and had become familiar with it. He had made some friends and Wang Aiguo's family who were like family. He felt that this place was not bad, so he decided to stay here for now.
It was almost 10:30 pm when they arrived at Guanshi. Aiguo Wang went to pick up the goods himself. He got off the bus near the train station and found a hotel called East River Hotel. It was 12 floors high. He booked a room on the 10th floor for 30 yuan a night. After he booked the room, he was about to go upstairs when he was stopped by a receptionist."Comrade, please take the elevator up.”，After saying that, he brought him to the elevator and helped him press the button for the floor. Dai Xuan took the elevator upstairs and couldn't help but sigh. This was completely different from the Shang Dynasty 3,000 years ago. In the past, people lived in thatched huts, but now people lived in high-rise buildings. Many things were completely different. It was really the vicissitudes of time. Things changed and people changed.
He opened the door and entered the room. The room was about ten square meters in size. There was a bathroom and a ceiling fan. He didn't know what it was either. He saw a switch on the wall and turned it. The fan slowly turned on. This thing was quite good. It could create wind without using a spell.
Dai Xuan sat on the soft bed, took out a green calabash and drank a few mouthfuls of spirit peach wine. He then spread out his divine sense, covering the entire city.
This city had nearly a million people living in it. It was divided into two parts by a large river, north and south, connected by two large bridges. His divine sense saw the heavy traffic on the road, the ships coming and going on the river, the people walking on the streets, and the complicated and chaotic scene of the railway station.
He found that the main road in front of the train station square that ran along the river was about five or six kilometers east. There were many big chimneys emitting white smoke. There were many people busy in the big houses there. Some people were using big steel furnaces to make iron, while others were using steel to make various objects.
He didn't know that it was a large state-owned enterprise in Guan City, the Guan City Steel Plant. It had more than 10,000 employees. There were also machinery factories, tractor factories, casting and forging factories, and other large enterprises along the two sides of the road.
Dai Xuan found that there was a big market there. Many people came and went to buy vegetables. He decided to kill a cow and sell it there tomorrow morning.
Since he had found a place, he decided to go out for a walk in the afternoon and see if there was anything delicious to eat. He went downstairs and walked towards the train station. On the way, he ate a bowl of beef ramen at a ramen shop. He asked the shop owner,"Boss, how much is a pound of beef on the market now?”，The boss told him,"The market sells it for 1.81 catties."”，Dai Xuan knew what was going on.
After finishing his noodles, he slowly walked to the train station. It was very lively here. There was an endless stream of people entering and leaving the station. The buses in the square in front of the station came and went very frequently. There were many stalls around the square. Some sold tiger bone medicinal wine, some sold ancestral spirit medicines, some were performing artists, and some were beggars. There were all kinds of people here. There were more than a dozen thieves.
Dai Xuan looked at the stalls one by one. In an empty seat, he saw a little girl of eight or nine years old kneeling. In front of her was a piece of paper that read: Uncle, Auntie, please do me a favor. I don't have any money to go home. Please give me some money to buy a ticket home.
Dai Xuan saw that she was quite pitiful and couldn't bear it anymore. He gave her 30 yuan and left. Not far away, an auntie called out to him,"Young man, you've been cheated. You gave me so much money. The little girl asked for money here last year.”。Dai Xuan went back to look for her and found that she was missing. However, he couldn't lose face as an immortal. He used his divine sense to find her, but he couldn't be bothered with her now. He placed his divine sense on her first and made plans later.
Dai Xuan continued to walk around. This time, he came to a stall surrounded by a group of people. Dai Xuan found an empty seat and went in to take a look. He saw a dark and thin man in his thirties sitting on the ground. In front of him was a cement floor. There were three small bowls placed side by side. The man's hands were moving the three small bowls in turn. His hand speed was so fast that it was a little dazzling. The person stopped after a few strokes and shouted,""Place your bets quickly. Those who win will get a prize and those who don't, come again.”A few of the onlookers put their money down. Most of them put their money in front of a bowl. Seeing that no one put their money in, the person opened three small bowls and found a die in a position with less money. It was that position that won money. Those who lost sighed and those who won collected the money expressionlessly. The people sitting on the ground began the next round of gambling.
Dai Xuan took a look and realized that the person was cheating. He felt that he could also participate in it. He took out the remaining ten pieces of the United Card and placed them in front of a small bowl. The dice were in the bowl. He used a spell to fix the dice on the ground. The person saw that someone had placed a big bet and was very happy. When he opened the small bowl, he secretly hooked the dice with his little finger. He did not expect that his little finger would slip and the bowl would open. The dice was in that position. He could only admit defeat and lose money.
Dai Xuan won a hundred yuan and wanted to leave. Seeing that he was about to leave, the man said,"Friend, your luck is so good. Let's play a few more rounds.”。
Dai Xuan said," You only have one hundred and fifty-two yuan and fifty cents in your pocket now. You can't even afford to pay me back if I bet two hundred yuan. Why should I play?"”，When the man heard that, he took out the money and counted it. He was shocked. He packed his things and left. He knew that he had met an expert.
Dai Xuan strolled around for a while before leaving. He went to a large shopping mall beside the square and found some rare things. There was a radio that could emit sound, a television that could see people, and so on. In the end, he bought a bottle of Mao wine and left. Because he didn't have a white wine ticket, he spent a high price of more than 30 yuan. He heard from Lao Wan that this was the best white wine on the market, so he wanted to buy it and try it.
He returned to the hotel at five o'clock. He lit a cigarette in his room and started smoking. He was thinking about what to do that night.
Thinking of the little girl who had cheated him of his money, he used his spiritual sense to find her. She was in a metal house on the side of the road not far from the railway station, on the south side of the railway. She had to pass through a tunnel under the railway.
The iron-sheet house was not big. It was about 20 square meters in size. There were two rooms on the other side of the house. In one of the rooms, there was a wooden bed made of two long stools. On the bed, there were old mosquito nets, straw mats and old quilts. A sallow and skinny man in his thirties was lying on the bed and coughing from time to time. It seemed that he was seriously ill. In the other room, there was a small kitchen with a stove and a small table for eating. The whole house was shabby and shabby. It was obviously a poor family. There was a large vegetable field around the iron house, and there was a small village not far away.
The little girl was talking to a slightly haggard woman at a small table. The little girl said,"Mom, Uncle Zhang's sign is really useful. Someone gave me 30 yuan today.”。
The woman said,"Why do you take so much money? Just take a few cents. If you take so much, people will regret it and come looking for you again.”The little girl looked sad and said,"I want to earn more money so that I can cure you and Dad's illness quickly."”。
The woman was speechless when she heard this. Tears appeared in her eyes, but her eyes were pale. She was suffering from an eye disease and could not see.
Dai Xuan looked at it with pity in his heart and sat there silently.
That night, Dai Xuan left the hotel and bought a roasted duck from a nearby deli. He opened the bottle of wine and ate while drinking, feeling very satisfied.
The next morning, Dai Xuan woke up very early. He had already killed a cow in the space. He also prepared a cart. He came to the market next to the steel factory and walked around. He found that there was no stall selling beef. It was not dawn yet, so he walked out of the market and found a remote place nearby. He took out the cart and beef from his space and placed the beef on the cart. He pushed the cart to the side of the road at the entrance of the market, occupied a spot, set up a stall, and began to do business.
He took out a knife and cut the beef in half. Then, he separated the beef and bones and placed them neatly. It was already six o'clock in the morning and the sky was starting to brighten. Dai Xuan put up a sign with the words: The beef was 1.5 RMB per catty, and the sign was placed next to the cow's head. Soon, an auntie came over and asked,"Is your beef sick? Pork is already selling for 1.5 RMB per catty, but beef is only selling for 1.5 RMB per catty.”
Dai Xuan said," Of course it's not a sick cow. Look at my beef. It's bright red. How can it be a sick cow when it's so beautiful?”
The middle-aged woman picked up a piece of beef and sniffed it before putting it down. She pointed at a piece of beef and said,"Give me two catties!"
Dai Xuan cut a piece of beef and handed it to her.""I don't have a bag to put it in. Two catties here are three yuan in total.”
The auntie looked at him suspiciously and asked,"You didn't even weigh it accurately?"”
Dai Xuan said,"Come back to me if you're short."”，The middle-aged woman paid the bill suspiciously and left with the beef.
After that, they made a few more deals. Everyone asked if it was sick beef sold at such a low price. Dai Xuan was annoyed and changed the sign to 1.81 catties.
The sun slowly rose, and the sky was bright. At seven o'clock, there were more people coming and going on both sides of the road. They were all rushing to work. Some were riding bicycles, some were walking, and there was an endless stream, like a large army.
By 7:30, Dai Xuan had sold more than 500 catties of beef, earning more than 800 yuan. His ability to accurately cut the weight without weighing it slowly spread. Many people came to see him and bought his beef. Some nearby restaurants also came to buy his beef. At around eight o'clock, business was even better. Many people who were off the night shift came to the market to buy vegetables. Dai Xuan's stall was surrounded by people. The beef looked especially beautiful, so many people bought it. By 9 am, half of the 2000 catties of beef had been sold, and the number of people gradually decreased. At this moment, a fat man in his forties appeared in front of the stall. He had a round face and big ears. He smiled at Dai Xuan and said,"I want all your beef." "You want them all?" Dai Xuan asked. I have 1000 pounds here!”
The fat man said,"Yes, I want them all, but you have to help me send them to the canteen."”
Dai Xuan immediately packed his things and followed him with the handcart.
They walked east along the highway for seven or eight hundred meters and came to a factory. There was a big sign hanging at the door that read: Guanshi Steel Plant. The steel factory was very large, with about 100 acres of land. There were rows of large factories and a few large chimneys that were emitting white smoke.
After entering the factory, there was a large canteen more than 200 meters on the right side. Dai Xuan pushed the beef to the kitchen door of the canteen. Not long after, two people pushed a weighing scale over. Including the cow head and internal organs, it added up to 1100 pounds. After weighing, they made a list. Fatty led Dai Xuan to a bungalow next to the canteen. There were more than ten offices in the bungalow. Fatty led Dai Xuan into an office. There was a set of wooden sofas and coffee tables, a set of office tables and chairs, and a file cabinet against the wall.
The two of them sat down on the wooden sofa. Fatty poured a cup of tea for Dai Xuan. The two of them chatted for a while and exchanged names. Fatty's surname was Guo, and he was the director of the logistics department. After sitting for a while, Director Guo went out and called a young woman in. He picked up the list on the coffee table and handed it to the woman."Xiao Wang, go to the finance department and settle this bill.”，Little Wang responded and went out with the list.
"Young Dai, do you raise this cow yourself?" Director Guo asked Dai Xuan.”
Dai Xuan replied," Yes, I raised it myself. Director Guo, do you still need it here?" If you need it, I can send it to you again.”。
Director Guo said," If your beef is delicious, our factory is so big. We can sell you more than a dozen a month. Why don't you have lunch here? We'll talk after lunch."”。
The supplies were not abundant now, and it was not easy to find a channel that could provide a large amount of meat. There were more than 10,000 employees in the steel factory, and the meat consumed every day was several thousand catties. Director Guo, who was in charge of logistics, had been troubled by this matter.
Dai Xuan said," No problem. My beef is absolutely delicious. You'll know after you eat it at noon."”。
Half an hour later, Xiaowang came in with a bundle of beef. It was 1980 yuan in total. Dai Xuan had sold the beef for about 4000 yuan today.
