MTL - Repairer-Chapter 104 hit the road
Chapter 104 On the Road
Back to Luochuan, Su Xiaofan didn't go home first, but went to Jing Shizhen's villa.
Before he left, the master told Su Xiaofan the password and the location of the key to the icehouse. He wanted to take some python meat back this time.
A total of more than 2,500 catties of meat from the giant python were decomposed. Except for the 200 catties that were sold and the more than 100 catties that the tiger cats ate these days, the rest were all in the cold storage.
Su Xiaofan took a total of six bags of meat, which weighed more than three hundred catties. Now the refrigerator at home definitely couldn’t fit it. He ordered a freezer yesterday and it will be delivered today.
When entering his own community, Su Xiaofan took a few couriers from the security room at the door.
These couriers are all for Duobao. There are cat litters and cat toys, but they don’t buy cat food, because their Duobao doesn’t eat those things.
"It's better to live in a villa."
Back at home, Su Xiaofan actually disliked the two hundred square meters of large flats. During this period of time in Fengmen Village, the close-to-nature environment made Su Xiaofan feel very comfortable.
Jumping down from Su Xiaofan's shoulder, the little tiger cat took a tiger step and walked around the whole house.
Although it is a cat, but there is a word tiger in its name, the little guy still pays great attention to his territory. During the few days in Fengmen Village, he once killed a fox, obviously feeling that the fox has invaded his territory.
Su Xiaofan has nothing else to do with the little tiger cat these days, so he specially teaches it not to hurt others. If it catches it all at once, it will be a matter of going to the hospital for a tetanus injection.
Not long after returning home, the freezer was delivered to the door. After putting the python meat into the freezer and the freezer of the refrigerator, Su Xiaofan had the time to make himself a cup of tea.
The tea leaves are chrysanthemums picked from the hillside in Fengmen Village.
On the second day after killing the giant python, Su Xiaofan took light from the chrysanthemums on the hillside, put them on the river bed to dry for a few days, and took some away for his sister, bringing back a total of less than ten catties.
"Back to Luochuan?" Zheng Dagang called just as he sat down and took a sip of chrysanthemum tea.
"Got home."
Su Xiaofan was answering the phone with one hand, and was petting the little tiger cat with the other. Unlike other domestic cats, the little tiger cat has extremely short hair, but it feels very good in the hand.
"Let's have dinner together tonight, what do you want to eat? Go eat hot pot?" It was almost five o'clock when Zheng Dagang called, and it happened to be meal time.
"Brother Gang, come home, I'll make you something delicious."
Su Xiaofan laughed when he heard the words, he was busy with other things these days, so he ate a few pieces of jerky from python meat, now that he finally has time, Su Xiaofan naturally has to reward himself.
"Do it yourself? That's fine, do you need me to bring something?"
Zheng Dagang knew that Su Xiaofan had always been cooking by himself, and his cooking skills were pretty good.
"Bring some onion, ginger, garlic and cooking wine." Su Xiaofan was also polite, he hadn't had time to buy it yet.
Put down the phone, Su Xiaofan opened the refrigerator and took out a piece of snake meat, and used a knife to disassemble a piece of meat about seven or eight catties.
It’s all pure meat that has been taken off the snake’s bone, and the meat of the python is a bit like beef, it doesn’t contain much water, and it can be cut after it melts and freezes.
Su Xiaofan cut the seven or eight catties of python meat into two or three centimeter long pieces, threw it directly into the water and boiled it.
Originally Su Xiaofan wanted to stir-fry it, but it felt like a waste of ingredients. In fact, the most famous snake meat is dragon and tiger fighting, but after looking at the little tiger cat, Su Xiaofan still dismissed this idea.
Zheng Dagang lives not far from Su Xiaofan's house, including the time spent on grocery shopping, he came here in less than an hour.
"What's the smell, so fragrant?" Zheng Dagang sniffed his nose as soon as he entered the door, the scent really made people salivate.
"Duobao, go back!" Seeing the little tiger cat on the sofa arched his waist, Su Xiaofan hastily scolded.
Hearing Su Xiaofan's voice, the tiger cat that was about to attack lay lazily on the sofa again.
"Since when did you get a cat?"
Zheng Dagang stared at the tiger cat for a while, then turned his head away, and said with a serious expression: "Xiaofan, tiger cats are not allowed to be kept, and accidents are easy to happen."
"Brother Gang, do you know Humao?" Su Xiaofan was taken aback when he heard this, Humao followed him and met many people, but Zheng Dagang was the only one who recognized him.
"Of course I know it. This is a forbidden feline. Where did you get it?"
Actually, Zheng Dagang once opened a pet shop with his friends when he was practicing stalls in the antique market a few years ago, and the business was pretty good at the beginning.
It's just that his friend felt that the profit of ordinary pets was too low, so he secretly imported a few tiger cats and leopard cats, but he didn't expect to be given a litter by the relevant departments.
In the end, he didn’t make any money and was fined a fortune. If Zheng Dagang’s family hadn’t been connected, he and that buddy would probably have stayed in for a few years.
So seeing this tiger cat, Zheng Dagang recognized it at a glance.
"Caught in the mountains."
Su Xiaofan said: "Just say it's a domestic leopard cat to the outside world, and most people can't tell the difference."
"Didn't you buy it from someone else? That's fine."
Hearing what Su Xiaofan said, Zheng Dagang heaved a sigh of relief.
The investigation and punishment of protected animals is usually caused by the buyer or seller being involved in an accident, which is what happened to him back then.
However, Su Xiaofan's tiger cat was not acquired by trade, so the chance of being investigated is very small, because what Su Xiaofan said is correct, most people don't know tiger cats.
"You cat is a bit fierce, I have to stay away."
After handing over the things he was carrying to Su Xiaofan, Zheng Dagang didn't dare to sit on the sofa, but followed Su Xiaofan into the kitchen.
"What kind of meat is this cooking?" Opening the lid of the pot, the tangy aroma made Zheng Dagang almost want to reach out into the pot to grab a piece.
"Don't ask yet, you will taste it later."
Su Xiaofan grinned, washed the onion and ginger, then cut into sections and shredded, then fished out the white and tender snake sections boiled in the pot, added some cooking wine, sprinkled with onion and ginger.
There was too much meat, Su Xiaofan put it in two plates, turned on two stoves, and put the python meat in the two plates back into the pot to steam.
Steaming on high heat for 20 minutes, Su Xiaofan brought a large plate of snow-white snake meat to the dining room table, and Zheng Dagang, who couldn't wait any longer, took a piece of meat and put it into his mouth.
"Fuck, what kind of meat is this, the meat is too tender."
To Zheng Dagang's surprise, this seemingly tight piece of meat was extremely fresh and tender when he entered the mouth, and he chewed it almost without any effort.
After taking a bite, Zheng Dagang only felt warm all over his body, not that kind of hot and dry, but a very comfortable feeling.
"Can't you eat it?" Su Xiaofan smiled, found a big bowl, divided out about two catties of python meat, and put it on the dining table.
Without Su Xiaofan calling, the little tiger cat jumped onto the table by itself, eating a piece of meat one by one, much faster than Zheng Dagang.
"It's a bit like fish, but I haven't seen boiled and then steamed fish that can stay together?"
Zheng Dagang ate and tasted, and even guessed several times but failed to guess.
"It's python meat, giant python." Su Xiaofan laughed, and also took a piece of python meat and put it in his mouth, savoring the delicious meat slowly.
"Python meat?"
Zheng Dagang trembled with the hand holding the vegetables, "I said brother, you are a tiger cat and a python, have you been to the tropical jungle these days?"
Zheng Dagang is not afraid to eat python meat, but because this thing is also a protected animal, and the business is caught at least one year and five years capped.
"Well, I went to the jungle. I caught it myself. Eat it with confidence."
Seeing that the little tiger cat's bowl was almost empty, Su Xiaofan pushed it a little further, and Zheng Dagang couldn't finish the seven or eight catties of meat.
As for Su Xiaofan himself, eating this python meat is just to taste the taste, and it doesn't help his cultivation much. Of course, if he does a lot of exercise, the python meat will help his muscle recovery.
"This stuff is really delicious, but unfortunately I can't eat it anymore."
Zheng Da just ate about a catty, and put down his chopsticks in pain. He felt that his belly would burst if he ate any more.
"I'll bring you some later, and give Uncle Zheng a taste."
Regarding Zheng Dagang, Su Xiaofan is not stingy at all, not to mention the help Brother Gang helped him when he first entered the society, even the electric shock that time was all thanks to Zheng Dagang, Su Xiaofan really treats him as a big brother in his heart .
"Okay, I have to take some back."
Zheng Dagang nodded. After eating this python meat, he felt energetic. Bringing it to his parents might improve their physique.
"Brother Gang, do you know someone who makes jerky?" Su Xiaofan asked, he wanted to make some jerky and take it with him as rations for tiger cats.
"I know, how much of this meat do you have? As for making it into jerky?" Zheng Dagang was stunned when he heard this.
"It's a few hundred catties. I'm going out in a few days and I want to take some with me." Su Xiaofan pointed to the little tiger cat who had sat down on the sofa after eating and drinking.
"Still going out? Where are you going?"
Zheng Dagang said with a wry smile: "Brother, we are still running a company, don't be careless."
"Brother Gang, it's fine if you don't care about it."
Su Xiaofan laughed when he heard the words, "I have delivered the goods to you, and you are in charge of selling them. This is what we agreed before. Brother Gang, you can't let me be a salesperson."
After receiving more than 30 million in the account, plus the 3 million that Zhao Zhengshan transferred to him some time ago, Su Xiaofan now has about 34 to 5 million in the account, and his desire for money is not as strong as before.
Besides, there is no information about the auction of meteorites. Su Xiaofan has no way to spend the money. The most urgent thing for him now is to get rare meteorites so that the repair value can be restored to a safe value.
According to Su Xiaofan's thinking, repairing a physical body starts with at least ten repair points.
As for repairing the Meridians of Gongfa, it starts at 30 points, and the accumulation of the Great Zhoutian Meridians requires 100 points of repairing value.
So without a repair value above 100 points, Su Xiaofan always felt uneasy.
"Don't, I have to talk to you if you don't want to hear it."
The company is owned by two people, and Su Xiaofan is the major shareholder. Zheng Dagang feels that the brothers still need to settle accounts clearly, otherwise the business won't last long.
"I went to Yanjing this time, and I went to talk to all four major auction houses."
Zheng Dagang said: "Harvest gave the best conditions. The starting price of the eight ancient spring treasures ranged from 600,000 to 4 million, and the Zabzaya wooden bowl you took out was very well evaluated by the auction house." High, the bottom auction price is set at 12 million, and they estimate that it will fetch around 30 million."
"Okay, Brother Gang, as long as we don't fail the auction, we can get at least 30 to 40 million."
Hearing Zheng Dagang’s words, Su Xiaofan’s eyes lit up. For the reason of defrauding his son’s father, Su Xiaofan has always advertised that he was born in a poor family. Although he is not so eager to make money recently, it does not mean that he does not like money.
"How much is the commission?" Su Xiaofan asked.
"The auction house charges 4%, which includes all the publicity in the early stage. As for the taxes and fees, the buyer pays. After the item is auctioned, the 4% deduction is ours."
The reason why Zheng Dagang stayed in Yanjing for more than a week was mainly because he was negotiating commissions with various auction houses. Four percent was already the lowest price he could get.
Actually, the commission rate of 4% is indeed relatively low.
Even if Uncle Jing goes to talk, he can only suppress it by 0.5 points at most. This is also because the ancient spring and the royal tribute wooden bowl that Zheng Dagang took out are genuine products, and the total transaction price will be very high, so the auction house will agree to collect them. Such a low commission.
"The filming will start in mid-September, and there is still more than a month and a half left. There are two invitations for admission. Are you going?"
Zheng Dagang looked at Su Xiaofan, Su Xiaofan kept shouting to get rich, he was really not sure if Su Xiaofan would like to go.
"Go, go to learn more, why not go? Others don't know that those coins and wooden bowls belong to us."
Su Xiaofan is still very curious about high-end auctions. He often sees auctioneers making big bucks on TV. If he has the opportunity to experience it on the spot, he is naturally willing.
"Brother Gang, do you think we can pretend to be buyers and raise the price of those antiques and wooden bowls?" Su Xiaofan rolled his eyes and came up with an idea.
"Don't do it, we are not professional, the price is not high, if you buy it yourself, the commission is not cheap."
Zheng Dagang waved his hands again and again, and said: "Dangtuo also has professionals. They have long-term cooperation with auction houses and are more experienced. After all, the more expensive things are auctioned, the more commissions the auction house gets. We don't need to worry about this."
"Okay." Su Xiaofan felt a little regretful, but he also knew that what Brother Gang said was reasonable, and he couldn't raise the price for himself. Then he could shoot other things, and he would definitely be able to experience it at that time.
When sending Brother Gang away, Su Xiaofan put fifty catties of python meat on his car. He didn't know if there was any harm in eating this great tonic, so he specifically told Brother Gang to eat a little less every meal.
…
In the next few days, Su Xiaofan was extremely busy. First, he took more than 500 catties of python meat to dry to make jerky, and finally made a finished product of 300 catties.
Looking at the food intake of the little tiger cat, Su Xiaofan really felt a little distressed. It can eat two or three catties of meat in one meal now, and three hundred catties is three months' food intake, but converted into money, it is several million dollars.
Of course, the little tiger cat can also eat ordinary meat, but before Uncle Jing left, he told Su Xiaofan that when the little tiger cat was young, try to let it eat python meat, even if it eats up the two thousand catties, it is worth it.
Having prepared food for the tiger cat, Su Xiaofan stared at the new house that had already started construction for another two days.
During the closure of the city, Su Xiaofan called Brother Jun, and added another three million to the previous decoration budget, but required that the project must be completed within two months.
Before, he was cash-strapped and received favors from Brother Jun, but now that he has money in his account, Su Xiaofan doesn't mind spending a little more, as long as the project can be completed ahead of schedule with quality and quantity guaranteed.
With the blessing of money ability, the construction period progressed very quickly, and the decoration company sent two designers to follow the on-site construction.
It took only a week to start construction, and the overall water and electricity have been done. The designer reserved the height of the tiles, and even ordered the cabinet furniture. The efficiency is not generally high.
Su Xiaofan let Brother Gang keep an eye on the decoration. After calling Tong Dongjie, he decided to set off for Dajiang Province.
According to the original plan, Su Xiaofan wanted to go there by plane, and Tong Dongjie also arranged a vehicle, a driver and a tour guide in Dajiang Province.
But because he was going to take the little tiger cat with him, he had to exchange his Raptor with Brother Gang.
Fortunately, the pickup Su Xiaofan bought can adapt to all kinds of extreme terrains, and it can be used by himself when driving in Dajiang Province, and the modified car body can also store more supplies.
Hundreds of catties of dried meat, more than a dozen barrels of mineral water, and some miscellaneous supplies didn’t even fit half of the carriage. Su Xiaofan could even fold down the modified rear seat and use it as a bed.
"I used to want to go to the end of the world with my sword and take a look at the prosperity of the world..."
One person, one cat, one car, driving on the Gobi Desert, looking at the extremely desolate desert.
Su Xiaofan feels that if he has a sharp sword, he can really find some artistic conception of walking the world with a sword.
Tomorrow may be on the shelves, another 10,000 words will be updated today, and the next one will be a little later, and it will be gone at 5:00
