Except for Lu Dayou, none of the other three, Old Sun, believed it. Old Sun sighed, "Brother Ye, are you kidding me? Do you think you are David Copperfield and can perform magic?"
Ye Feng disagreed: "It's just a mining machine, let's go and drive a mining machine in now."
Lu Dayou contacted a friend named Wang Datong, who specializes in selling mining machines. He happened to have one in stock, which was imported from Germany. The parts had just been shipped from Germany and the machine was assembled.
There are many jade mines in Yudu. For example, Jade Prince has more than a dozen jade mines in operation. Ye Feng’s Tianyuan Group also has five mines, and there are many other small mine owners, big and small.
In order to dig out high-quality raw stones, jade mine owners are willing to invest and purchase high-quality mining machines, even if the price is high.
Lao Chen and Lao Zhou went to prepare other mining matters. Lao Sun, who was in charge of the mining machines, followed Lu Dayou and Ye Feng to Wang Datong's mining machine store.
A big red sign hangs high above the mining machine store: Datong Machinery.
The boss, Wang Datong, was a southerner. He was thin, small, and dark, with pimples all over his face. When he saw Lu Dayou coming, a sly smile flashed in his eyes.
"Lu Dayou, long time no see. I saw your news online. I heard that you were shot."
The news that Lu Dayou was shot spread throughout the Jade Capital mining industry. The bosses in this circle all knew that Lu Dayou had a high level of stone cutting skills and rich experience, and people often asked him to cut stones.
Wang Datong once asked Lu Dayou to cut stones for him, and that’s how they met.
Lu Dayou looked disdainful: "I'm fine, it's just two bullets. For those of us in this line of work, one knife to heaven, one knife to hell. We have experienced all kinds of horrible things. Getting shot is nothing to be afraid of."
Wang Datong raised his eyebrows, a little skeptical of its authenticity. It was reported two days ago that he was shot, how could he be discharged from the hospital so soon? He didn't look like he had been shot. Is this guy bragging
His eyes kept looking at Lu Dayou, but he didn't find any sign that Lu Dayou was injured.
"What are you looking at? Do you want to see the gunshot wound on my body? Come and let me take off my clothes for you to see."
Seeing that Wang Datong didn't believe him, Lu Dayou pretended to take off his clothes to show him, but he was secretly laughing in his heart. Brother Ye's Spring Rain Snow Cream is so effective that the scar from the gunshot wound has basically disappeared. If I show this to Wang Datong, he will not believe that I have been shot.
Wang Datong was really frightened by Lu Dayou and shrank his neck. Lu Dayou was shot but still so imposing, he was really a man.
He even changed his address and said with a wry smile, "What's so good about a gunshot wound? Brother Lu, you survived this disaster, so you will surely have good fortune in the future."
"What do you mean by surviving a disaster? I think it's fake news, Lu Dayou, you made it so hard for me to find you."
At this time, a shrill voice sounded, and a middle-aged man wearing glasses walked out of the shop, looking at Lu Dayou with disdain.
After seeing the middle-aged man, Lu Dayou looked a little embarrassed. The middle-aged man with glasses was named Feng Yuzhu, and he was once his creditor.
Lu Dayou's luck has not been very good in recent years. If he helps others to appreciate the rough stones, he will be able to like them most of the time. However, as long as he spends money to gamble on the stones himself, he will fail most of the time.
Two years ago, Lu Dayou took a fancy to a piece of rough stone and believed that he could turn it into full green, but he was penniless. He gritted his teeth and borrowed 200,000 yuan from Feng Yuzhu, but ended up turning it into a waste.
He hasn't paid back that money yet.
Lu Dayou smiled awkwardly and said, "Boss Feng, long time no see."
Four or five burly men came out from behind Boss Feng and surrounded Lu Dayou. Boss Feng shouted coldly, "Stop talking nonsense. Pay your debts. Where's my 500,000 yuan?"
Feng Yuzhu is not only a jade mine owner, he also often lends money at high interest rates to those who gamble on jade stones. He has more than a dozen thugs under him. In the Jade Capital, he is afraid of no one except the Jade Prince.
Lu Dayou was a little stunned, and asked in confusion: "Boss Feng, did you remember it wrong? Didn't I owe you 200,000? How come it became 500,000?"
The thugs rolled up their sleeves, looking ferocious and ready to attack, but most likely they just wanted to scare Lu Dayou.
Boss Feng adjusted his glasses and said contemptuously, "That was 200,000 two years ago. After two years, the interest has compounded, so of course it must be 500,000. Do you think I'm running a relief center? We agreed on the interest rate at the time. I, Feng Yuzhu, am the most fair. I'll pay you the interest rate I agreed on. I won't charge you a penny more."
Old Sun wanted to argue with Boss Feng, but he didn't dare say a word because of the fierce stares given by those big men.
Ye Feng sneered. This was clearly loan sharking. Two hundred thousand yuan turned into five hundred thousand yuan in two years. It would be better to rob. Loan sharking is abominable, and it is even more abominable that it affects my purchase of mining machines. If I don't teach you a lesson, do you really think no one will punish you
Ye Feng was about to take action but was stopped by Lu Dayou.
Lu Dayou said sincerely, "Brother Ye, it's okay. I can handle my own problems. I accept the 500,000 yuan. This 500,000 yuan is my punishment for myself and atonement for my past sins."
After seeing his wife, Lu Dayou felt guilty about his past. Two hundred thousand was a considerable sum of money for him at that time, but now even five hundred thousand is nothing to him.
He said coldly: "Boss Feng, ask your people to move aside. I will transfer the money to you right away, but you have to return my IOU to me."
Seeing that Lu Dayou really wanted to pay back the money, Boss Feng was a little surprised. He chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I, Feng Yuzhu, am trustworthy. As long as you pay back the money I borrowed, I won't ask you for it again. Of course, if you don't pay back the money, I won't let you pay it back either."
"Give me your bank account number."
"Give him my bank card."
Boss Feng asked his men to take out a bank card from his handbag and hand it to Lu Dayou.
Lu Dayou immediately transferred 500,000 yuan to Feng Yuzhu's bank card using his mobile phone. When Boss Feng received a text message from the bank, he was stunned at first. Lu Dayou really paid back the money.
Boss Feng's face suddenly became better: "Lu Dayou, you have become rich. You are so rich? Come, let's go to the store to have a cup of tea and chat."
Since he had paid back the money, Lu Dayou didn't want to bother with Boss Feng, so he said directly to Wang Datong: "Wang Datong, I told you on the phone, where is your mining machine? I want it right now."
Wang Datong looked embarrassed and glanced at Boss Feng. Boss Feng had a cold look on his face, as if to say, it's none of my business, don't look at me.
Wang Datong was obviously afraid of Boss Feng. He gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Lu, you came at a bad time. I sold the mining machine to Boss Feng."
Seeing Wang Datong looking like he had eaten shit, Lu Dayou suddenly understood what was going on and became furious. He thought that Wang Datong and Boss Feng were playing a trick on him.
