Cosma Empire

Graff was a little embarrassed. The woman looked at him with wary eyes, and the man looked at him with a little hope. The problem is that he is not the one who can make decisions. So he took a step back, highlighting Du Lin's status, and said in a low voice: "This is our boss."

A surprised expression was evident on the man's face, but his eyes became brighter. In this world where capital is king, if a young man wants to buy something expensive, there are only two possibilities.

He is a liar.

He is the young master of a rich family.

A young man of Graff's size and menacing appearance was unlikely to be a liar, and even if he were, there was nothing here that would interest him. Just like the merchants who came to inquire about the price before, the high price dispelled their thoughts. Instead of buying this pasture like wasteland at a premium, it is better to buy the wasteland directly.

Of course, the price of wasteland is indeed cheaper, but there is a small problem here, and that is time.

Buying land was not an easy task. Ever since a certain ranch tycoon's crazy land enclosure caused public outrage, the empire had become extra careful in selling land, and there were also many procedures. For example, to purchase a piece of wasteland for the development of pastures or farmland, you must first go through the approval of the "Yuanxing Empire Land Use Office". From the time of approval to the approval, it will take about 20 days if there is no problem.

Then it is necessary to seek the votes of farmers, herdsmen and a small number of urban residents around the target land, and only 60% of the approval can enter the next step.

No matter what you do to buy a piece of wasteland, from the initiation to the complete purchase, it is simply impossible within two or three months. And that's why Du Lin still came here knowing that the wasteland was cheaper.

He couldn't wait that long, otherwise the three suppliers would go crazy, and he might also be prosecuted by them for fraud.

The man's expression became calmer, he put down the lock inside the door, and opened the door, "You are welcome, no matter whether we are satisfied in the end, I welcome you."

He stepped aside to open the door, and Graf and two members of the fellow countrymen's association stood outside the door. It was useless for them to go in, and it might affect Durin's next negotiations, so Graf was very smart to avoid such a situation. When the situation arises, he doesn't go in.

Du Lin followed the man into the supplies, and the woman stood aside with a girl with golden brown hair in her arms, looking at Du Lin with longing eyes.

They have been cornered by the dun. In the spring of the previous year, they took 800 yuan from a man named Morris in the city and bought 60 calves and some necessities. Unexpectedly, it took only two years for 800 yuan to grow It's three thousand yuan. Some time ago they took away sixty cattle that could be sold for 2,000 yuan, but they only paid 800 yuan for the principal and 2,200 yuan for interest.

They couldn't afford even a single penny, and they were at the end of their ropes. The other party said that if they couldn't get the money together by the end of the month, they would do something to the women in the family.

After welcoming several waves of businessmen and sending them away, the family members are already desperate, and the man has already made up his mind to die. If the other party really wants to do something, he will definitely do it. Kill one to earn one, and then the family goes on the road together.

Just when he was desperate, he unexpectedly encountered a new turning point.

"My name is Hu En." The man asked Du Lin to pour a glass of low-quality fruit wine. Generally speaking, most farmers and herdsmen in the countryside brew some low-quality wine by themselves. It doesn't matter whether it is good or not, this is one of them. Lots of fun.

Du Lin raised his hand and raised the mouth of the jug, Hu En put down the jug, his hands were clasped together uncomfortably, his fingers shaking back and forth, just like his restless heart, "Actually... I know,

That price won't please anyone, but it's the last thing we can sell. ", the haggard look in his eyes when he looked up did make people feel a little sympathetic, but Du Lin is a businessman, and when it comes to transactions, he must not be moved by foreign things.

He just nodded his head to show that he understood. The man showed such an expression, and said with a wry smile, "How much can you pay?"

Du Lin didn't say any price, but instead asked, "Can you tell me about that guy named Morris?"

The man is a bit strange, but this may be his family's last chance, no matter if it is a straw or something, he has to grab it, "Morris is a provincial (xing) elegant man who runs a deli on the corner of 7th Avenue, he There are some subordinates who specialize in 'helping' some people who are in desperate need of money. It is said that he is a gang member, so..."

According to Hu En, Du Lin felt that this guy named Morris was not too dark-hearted. It took two years for the 800 yuan to become 3,000 yuan. Such a conscientious lender is really "helping" those at hand tight man. In Du Lin's dream, those financial companies are the real black hearts, and it only takes two years for a hundred yuan to turn out several million. To say it was unlucky, it can only be said that Hu En chose the wrong direction of investment.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with him. He picked up the glass and took a sip of the fruity, slightly astringent fruit wine, which was not very tasty, and then slowly put it down, "Mr. Hu En, I think I have understood, if I decided to buy your farm, are you sure you will pay Morris?" He took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, and said slowly: "I don't want to be involved in any trouble."

Hu En nodded vigorously, "Of course sir, I also want to end all this as soon as possible, and then return to my hometown to start a new life." Hu En's eyes burst into a dazzling light, and he has realized at this time Dooling is very likely to buy his farm, which is very good news for him. Once he gets rid of the heavy debts and has a little more money in his hand, he can go to another city to be a carpenter, or reclaim some wasteland by himself as a farmer or herdsman.

Du Lin considered for a moment, and said, "For the sake of my sympathy for your experience, I can give you up to 1,800 yuan." At this time, Hu En's face suddenly changed, and he wanted to say something At that time, Du Lin raised his hand to stop him, "If you buy a piece of wasteland with the same area as your pasture, you only need 1,500 yuan at most, and you should also understand that because of your neglect of management and maintenance, the pasture is almost Not much different from the wasteland."

"I exchanged the extra 300 yuan for the two-month approval time. Speaking of which, you have already earned it. After all, there is no job that can allow you and your family to earn 300 yuan in two months. "

Seeing that Du Lin closed his mouth and did not speak, Hu En immediately said: "But I owe Morris 2,200 yuan, and we still need travel expenses to leave here, and some money to start a new life..."

Du Lin laughed and shook his head, "You got one thing wrong sir, the money you owe Morris is what you owe him, not me. All I need is this farm, not for you guys Pay off the debt and give you an extra sum of money, so that you have time to start a new life." As he said, Du Lin stood up and patted his trouser legs, "I am just a businessman, not a philanthropist. If you are willing to If you want to sell this ranch for 1,800 yuan, you can find me at 117 Queen's Road."

Seeing that Du Lin was about to leave, Hu En's hands slowly clenched into fists, his arms were trembling. Seeing that Du Lin had stepped out of the door with one foot, he stood up abruptly and shouted, wait a minute. When Du Lin turned around with doubts, Hu En took a deep breath to make his voice less trembling, "I want to discuss it with my wife."

"No problem, then I'll wait outside the door for a while, you have five minutes."

The slowly closing door finally closed the gap, and Hu En's wife and daughter came from the dining room on the side. The woman's face was full of sadness. In fact, the real reason why Hu En asked to keep Du Lin was that Du Lin had already offered the highest price among those who came to inquire about the price. Before Du Lin came, the highest price was only 1600, and many people bid between 1200 and 1400.

They just calculated that Hu En urgently needed a sum of money to save his family, and took advantage of the fire to buy this farm with an area of ​​480 mu at a very low price!

As for what to do with the remaining money after selling the land, those merchants were not in their consideration.

As Dooling said, they were businessmen, not philanthropists.

"What should I do?" The wife leaned into Hu En's arms, hugging her daughter. The huge amount of interest had already put this woman on the verge of collapse. If she can't make enough money by the end of the month, she will choose to commit suicide to protect her chastity. Of course, she will leave with her daughter and will not let her continue to suffer in this world. Even Hu En had made a decision before Du Lin came.

But I hope that it will appear inadvertently, so that the family who have been desperate and ready to fight with their lives will suddenly improve again. There is only a gap of 400 yuan between 1,800 yuan and 2,200 yuan. 400 yuan is indeed a lot, but it may not be There is no way.

Looking at the sad parents, the daughter suddenly asked, "Why can't you sell it twice?"

Before Hu En could react, he said something, but his wife reacted very quickly. She squatted down immediately, clasped her daughter's shoulders tightly with both hands and asked, "You just said to sell twice? Did you? I didn't." If I heard wrong, it is sold twice?"

The daughter nodded and told what happened in school these days.

In her rural school, there is a classmate from a good family who likes to read comics. This student often sells the comics he has read to other students at a depreciated price, and he can buy a new comic by adding some. Two days ago, this classmate was called away by the teacher, and later everyone found out that he had agreed to sell the comics to A, and the money from selling the comics was lost on the way home.

The classmate who suffered the loss was unwilling to lose the money and lose the manga, so he quietly sold the manga to B...

Hu En and his wife looked at each other and were silent for a long time...
