Start a mysterious island

The meal time passed, and the noisy restaurant gradually returned to quiet.

Wang Gui was checking the accounts. The restaurant's business was very good during this period. A happy smile appeared on his face involuntarily.

"Dong dong dong."

There was a knock on the door. Wang Gui, who was checking the accounts, did not raise his head and shouted to the person outside the door.

"Come in."

The shrewd and capable Liu Yun pushed open the door and walked in with a pot of tea in her hand. She came to the shopkeeper and placed the pot of tea on the table.

Wang Gui raised his head and glanced at the assistant, then asked, "There is a shortage of some goods in the kitchen. You can go take a look later, make statistics, and then quickly have someone make up for it."

"Yes." Liu Yun nodded.

When Wang Gui saw that Liu Yun had not left, he asked with some confusion, "Do you have anything else to do?"

"Shopkeeper, should we stock up some more pearls in the warehouse?" Liu Yun said.

"We have already stocked up on 300,000 pearls, which should be enough." Wang Gui shook his head.

"Okay." Seeing what the shopkeeper said, Liu Yun stopped making further suggestions. Then she turned and left the room, going downstairs to the back kitchen to count the things missing in the kitchen.

No one disturbed him, and the room became quiet. Wang Gui drank tea leisurely and checked the accounts with a smile.

Time passed, only ten minutes passed, and there was another knock on the door.

"Dong dong dong."

This time the outsider knocked on the door very quickly, and you could tell from the knocking that the other person was a little anxious.

"Come in."

Wang Gui, who looked calm, greeted the people outside the door with a calm tone.

"Click."

After Liu Yun heard the sound, she immediately opened the door and ran in.

"How can you be so frizzy and frizzy?" Wang Gui reprimanded him expressionlessly.

"Shopkeeper, Mr. Lin is here." Liu Yun said quickly.

"It hasn't been long since the last transaction, and he's here again so soon?" Wang Gui remained calm, because he believed that the pearls currently stored in the warehouse were enough for the transaction.

"Mr. Lin ordered 10 million pearls from us this time." Liu Yun said excitedly.

"What?"

"How many did you say?"

Wang Gui, who originally looked calm and calm, was immediately stunned after hearing what his assistant said.

He thought there was something wrong with his ears, so he quickly asked.

"Ten million." Liu Yun repeated.

"Did you hear that correctly?" Wang Gui asked in disbelief. At this moment, the calm expression on his face had disappeared without a trace.

"You heard that right, I confirmed this number with him." Liu Yun answered seriously. When she first heard the number reported by Lin Li, Liu Yun's reaction was no different from Wang Gui's current reaction.

"Ten million, my God!" Wang Gui muttered to himself.

No matter how cheap something is, once the quantity reaches a certain level, the income generated is very considerable.

The other party's demand is for 10 million pearls, but the number of pearls currently stored in the warehouse is only 300,000. The gap is so big that it's heartbreaking.

"Shopkeeper, we only have 300,000 pearls in the warehouse now. What should we do?" Liu Yun said eagerly.

Once such a big business is completed, bonuses will definitely be indispensable.

However, there is not much spot on hand now, and this business is likely to fall through.

"Don't worry, I'll go down and talk to Mr. Lin face to face." Wang Gui picked up the tea cup on the table and drank it all in one gulp, took a few deep breaths, adjusted his excitement, and then left the room.

Liu Yun saw the shopkeeper leaving quickly and quickly followed him.

…………

Lin Li was sitting on a chair in the restaurant lobby, leisurely drinking tea made from crude tea leaves served by the waiter.

"Why has it been so long and there's no news?"

Just when Lin Li was wondering about Liu Yun's absence for a long time, two hurried figures appeared in the corridor in the distance.

"coming."

Wang Gui came to Lin Li, clasped his hands and said hello with a smile on his face, "Mr. Lin, long time no see, I hope you are well."

"Shopkeeper Wang, long time no see. You've lost a lot of weight!" Lin Li stood up and responded with clasped fists.

"I was running around outside a while ago, so I lost a lot of weight." Wang Gui chuckled.

Lin Li exchanged some pleasantries with the other party, and then went straight to the topic, "Shopkeeper Wang, the quantity of pearls I came to you to purchase this time is quite large. I wonder if you can collect them all."

"Mr. Lin, we have 300,000 pills in stock in the warehouse in our backyard. It will take time to raise the remaining quantity," Wang Gui said.

"As long as we can get it all together, how long will it take you?" Lin Li also knew that asking the other party to take out ten million pearls at once would be too difficult, so he planned to give enough pearls from the beginning of this purchase. each other’s time.

After hearing what Lin Li said, most of Wang Gui's nervousness immediately disappeared.

If Lin Li wanted to get these ten million pearls now, even if Wang Gui had great powers, he wouldn't be able to do it.

"If it's fast, it will take ten days, if it's slow, it may take fifteen days. I will try my best to get the quantity you need as early as possible." Wang Gui quickly calculated in his mind and gave an approximate time.

This time is not long, I thought it would take about twenty days... Lin Li was very satisfied when he heard the approximate time given by Wang Gui.

In the past, it took at least one to two days to purchase pearls. This time, the quantity purchased was dozens of times that before, and the time did not exceed half a month, which was already very fast.

"Mr. Lin, do you think this time is acceptable to you?" Wang Gui asked somewhat uneasily when he saw that Lin Li had no expression on his face.

He really hopes to complete such a big deal. If he runs away, he may not be able to sleep at night in the next few days.

"This time is fine, you can start collecting pearls as soon as possible." Lin Li had a smile on his face.

"Okay, I'll arrange for people to collect pearls right away." Wang Gui got the exact answer, and he could no longer hide his joy.

Lin Li saw that the other party was so happy, and the smile on his face became a little wider.

At this time, something came to Lin Li's mind, which made the smile on his face shrink a little.

Wang Gui was very concerned about the big customer in front of him. He immediately noticed the subtle change in the expression on Lin Li's face, so he asked with great concern.

"Mr. Lin, what's the matter with you? If anything, just say it. As long as I can help you, I will definitely help."

Lin Li looked at the very enthusiastic Wang Gui and asked in a consultative tone.

"I don't have much cash on hand right now, can I pay with spirit stones?"

"Of course." Wang Gui nodded immediately. Spirit stones are hard currency, and many large transactions will use spirit stones.

Lin Li had an idea in his mind and took out some spiritual stones from the mysterious island.

Ten million pearls require a payment of 10 million copper coins, which is converted into spiritual stones and requires 200 pearls.

"There are a hundred spirit stones here, which are considered as advance payment. Please check them." Lin Li handed the bag with the spirit stones in his hand to the other party.

Wang Gui wanted to say that there was no need for inspection, but he thought that if something went wrong in such a big business, he would suffer a lot of losses even with his wealth, so he swallowed the words that came to his lips.

After taking the bag containing the spirit stones handed over by Lin Li, Wang Gui handed it over to the assistant who didn't say much.

Liu Yun opened the bag and began to check the integrity of each spiritual stone.

Wang Gui took advantage of his assistant to check the spirit stones and chatted with Lin Li with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Lin, I have never thought that you want such a large quantity at one time this time. It seems that I will have to prepare more goods in the warehouse in the future."

Lin Li was not the kind of unkind person. After hearing what Wang Gui said, he quickly persuaded him.

"I plan to leave Dongwu City for a while and won't come back for at least half a year. This time the transaction is completed, so don't hoard pearls for the time being."

Wang Gui was stunned for half a second when he heard this, and then a look of realization appeared on his face. Now he finally understood why Lin Li wanted so many pearls at once.

"Okay, then I won't stock up anymore... When Mr. Lin comes back to Dongwu City, you have to tell me so that I can take care of you."

Lin Li nodded and said nothing more, quietly waiting for Liu Yun to check the hundred spiritual stones.

"Go and take out my treasured tea." Wang Gui saw Lin Li drinking tea made from crude tea leaves, and quickly called his men to take out the tea that he was reluctant to drink.

"Yes." Upon hearing this, the sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy quickly turned around and ran upstairs.

"Shopkeeper Wang, there's no need to go to such trouble." Upon seeing this, Lin Li quickly advised.

Wang Gui smiled and waved his hands, without changing his mind, and talked to Lin Li about other things.

"Mr. Lin, can you tell me where you are going after you leave Dongwu City?"

Lin Li didn't hide it because he felt there was nothing hard to say about this kind of thing.

"This time I left Dongwu City and planned to go to Shuanghe City to stay for a while. I haven't decided where to go after that."

Wang Gui had been to Shuanghe City before. When he heard Lin Li say that he was going to Shuanghe City after leaving Dongwu City, he immediately told Lin Li some things about Shuanghe City.

Lin Li made some preparations in advance and collected a lot of information about Shuanghe City, but the information on hand was far inferior to what Wang Gui, who had been to Shuanghe City, was telling him now, so he listened to the other party's story with relish.

Seeing how Lin Li was listening attentively, Wang Gui became more attentive when talking about Shuanghe City.

"That Shuanghe City is far less peaceful than our Dongwu City. Mr. Lin, you should pay attention to safety when you get there..."

"Far less peaceful than Dongwu City? Since there are many gangsters, haven't the local police officers in charge of public security started to clean them up?"

Wang Gui smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The various forces in the city are complicated, and it can be said that the police officers in the Yamen are powerless if they want to punish them."

"..." Lin Li fell silent when he heard this and frowned.

He had previously promised Qin Muqing to take him to Shuanghe City.

At this moment, hearing that the public security in Shuanghe City was so bad, I couldn't help but give up the idea of ​​taking Qin Muqing to Shuanghe City.

"Although the security in the city is very poor, there is an exception in one place." Wang Gui said suddenly.

"Where?" Lin Li asked.

"Near the military camp."

"Why is the security near the military camp so good? Do you have any explanation?"

"As far as I know, the man in charge of the military camp has said that whoever dares to cause trouble near his military camp will have his head chopped off, no matter who is behind him."

"This is quite domineering."

"Since the Lord's words, the security situation in a large area around the military camp has improved rapidly. If you are looking for a place to settle in Shuanghe City, it is best to choose a house near the military camp."

After hearing this, Lin Li nodded slightly, "If you take Qin Muqing to Shuanghe City with you, and you choose a place to settle down after arriving, it must be near the military camp."

"Shopkeeper, Mr. Lin, I've checked the spirit stone," Liu Yun said.

Lin Li and Wang Gui stopped talking and turned to look at Liu Yun. They saw the other person smiling. They knew what was going on without asking the result.

"Since there is no problem, let's leave it like this for now. I will come back to pick up the goods later and pay the remaining money then." Lin Li stood up and said.

"Have a sip of tea before you leave!" Wang Gui persuaded him to stay.

"I have other things to do." Lin Li shook his head and refused.

Wang Gui and Liu Yun saw the distinguished guest walking out the door and hurriedly saw each other off.

Lin Li came out of the restaurant and did not go to the street to stop the carriage. Instead, he walked slowly towards the alley in the distance.

Wang Gui and Liu Yun looked away when they saw Lin Li walking into the alley.

"Hahaha..." Wang Gui could no longer hold back the joy in his heart and laughed loudly.

Liu Yun also had a smile on her face at this time, because this deal can be said to be a sure thing, and the bonus and other things cannot be escaped.

Wang Gui calmed down his emotions and gave orders to his right-hand assistant.

"Next, you mobilize everyone in the store to collect pearls for me."

"Yes." Liu Yun nodded in response, and then she made a suggestion.

"Shopkeeper, even if we mobilize everyone in the store to collect pearls, if we want to collect 10 million pearls in half a month, I'm afraid we still won't have enough time.

In my opinion, we must seize the time to recruit more people now. Only in this way can we complete this matter within half a month. "

Wang Gui frowned in thought, then nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. You can post a notice later to recruit some people."

"Yes." Liu Yun was very happy to see Wang Gui listen to her opinion.

Then Wang Gui explained some details. Suddenly, he thought of something that he ignored.

"Shopkeeper, what's wrong?" Liu Yun saw Wang Gui's expression becoming serious and asked quickly.

"Ten million pearls this time is not a small amount, and the warehouse in our backyard simply cannot hold it." Wang Gui said.

"Uh...yes!" Liu Yun also reacted belatedly at this time.

"Then what should we do? We can't put the collected pearls in warehouses everywhere. When the time comes, we will take Mr. Lin to the warehouses everywhere."

Wang Gui shook his head, "We definitely can't do that. Not to mention it's a waste of time. If we make Mr. Lin unhappy, we will definitely not be considered for such business in the future."

Liu Yun had an idea and came up with a solution, "Shopkeeper, how about we rent a large warehouse at the dock and put all the collected pearls there."

Wang Gui thought for a moment and agreed to this solution.

For a period of time after that, he was so busy that he was both miserable and happy.
