"I am already aware of the two matters that Blazing Sun mentioned. I will personally coordinate with Blazing Sun about the quality of the wood and strive to find an opportunity for Blazing Sun. After all, it is just some old wood.
As for the Juping County Magistrate, it is not difficult for Blazing Sun to deal with County Magistrate Liu. After all, he is just an insignificant person. However, in my opinion, there is no harm in replacing him and sending someone he is familiar with to Juping County Magistrate Liu. As long as this person is able to protect the interests of Blazing Sun's territory, it will be fine. What does Blazing Sun think? "
After Zhang Rang finished inspecting the Asahi Pill in the brocade box, he discussed with Zuo Feng in a low voice. Then, he turned his gaze to Yang Rui and spoke. His tone was very amiable and he was even smiling as he spoke. It was a stark contrast to his previous stern appearance. At this moment, Yang Rui seemed to have a lot of face.
After hearing Zhang Rang speak again, Yang Rui finally caught a hint of abnormality in Zhang Rang's voice. In stark contrast to Zuo Feng, this Vice Attendant's voice was not as treacherous and was much gentler. Furthermore, his complexion was not as pale as Zuo Feng's. Instead, it was faintly rosy and was no different from an ordinary person!
This was the effect of the Asahi Pill! Yang Rui immediately realized that the Asahi Pill he gave to Zuo Feng had already been consumed by Zhang Rang. That was why such a change had occurred!
"Blazing Sun will definitely follow Vice Attendant's instructions!"
Actually, Yang Rui could only listen to Zhang Rang's suggestion to solve the problem. Zhang Rang's tone did not sound like he wanted to discuss with Yang Rui. For a person who was used to being in a high position, he was not arrogant and instead welcomed him with a smile. This showed that he thought highly of Yang Rui. This was probably due to the Asahi Pill as well.
"Yes. Blazing Sun is very good! In particular, Blazing Sun had taken a lot of credit for the Asahi Pill incident. I will definitely put in a good word for Blazing Sun in front of the officials … Blazing Sun should also continue to work hard and refine more Asahi Pill. I believe that the other beneficiaries will not treat Blazing Sun unfairly … "
With regards to Yang Rui's attitude, Zhang Rang nodded his head in satisfaction. The smile on his face became even wider. Next, he praised Yang Rui for a while, and at the same time, did not forget to encourage him. In the end, he took out a Landscape Fan as a gift to Yang Rui, and Yang Rui accepted it in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
Although this Folding Fan was not something valuable, it was only an 8th grade ornament. However, the landscape painting on the Folding Fan was personally made by Zhang Rang. Moreover, there was a small inscription on the Folding Fan and Zhang Rang's seal. Therefore, this item might be useful in certain circumstances.
After that, Zuo Feng signaled Yang Rui with his eyes, meaning that he could leave now. Yang Rui quickly understood and bid farewell to Zhang Rang with Zuo Feng, and returned to Zuo Feng's residence to rest. According to Zuo Feng. The matter of the inferior wood should be resolved soon. Therefore, Yang Rui stayed in the guest room of Zuo Feng's residence under Zuo Feng's persuasion.
As expected. On the morning of the second day, Zuo Feng brought good news to Yang Rui. Firstly, the transfer order of Juping County Magistrate Liu had been sent out. According to Zuo Feng, the new County Magistrate of Juping County would be a distant relative of Juping County. Under normal circumstances, the Mountain City would not be attacked again.
At the same time, there was also a follow-up to the matter of the superior wood. Zhang Rang used some unknown reason to obtain 90% of the rights to dispose of the superior wood in the palace. Moreover, the price of transferring the rights to Yang Rui had greatly exceeded Yang Rui's expectations. At the same time, the power of Zhang Rang and the other eunuchs once again surprised Yang Rui.
However, this was definitely a good thing for Yang Rui. The total amount of wood obtained from the West Garden's Palace Donation was more than 3,000,000 units. Among them, 90% of the wood that needed to be disposed of was below 5th grade. The amount was more than 2,700,000 units, and the selling price was calculated at 2 silver coins per unit. This made Yang Rui pleasantly surprised.
Under the influence of the Palace Donation, the price of 2 silver coins was only one-third of the price of 9th grade wood in the market. In this batch of wood, there were more than 1,300,000 units of 9th grade wood, which accounted for more than half of the total; 900,000 units of 8th grade wood, which accounted for more than 30% of the total; 300,000 units of 7th grade wood, which accounted for about 10% of the total; 100,000 units of 6th grade wood, and 30000 units of 5th grade wood!
Even if the wood of the same grade was different, the market price was still about the same. However, the difference between two grades was about 5-6 silver coins per unit. Based on the current market price of 9th grade wood, which was 5-6 silver coins per unit, the price of 8th grade wood would be 25-30 silver coins per unit, the price of 7th grade wood would be 125-150 silver coins per unit, the price of 6th grade wood would be 650-750 silver coins per unit, and the price of 5th grade wood would be 3400-3600 silver coins per unit.
Yang Rui roughly estimated that the actual value of this batch of wood should be close to 3,000,000 gold coins. Although most of the wood was nearing the limit of its storage, Jiao Wen had said that it could be maintained. This was also the reason why Yang Rui dared to buy it. If this wood fell into the hands of others, it would be easily destroyed if it was not used quickly. At that time, it would really become a pile of rotten wood.
With Zhang Rang's consent, this batch of wood was only sold to Yang Rui at the price of 2 silver coins per unit. The total amount that Yang Rui had to pay for the wood was only about 50,000 to 60,000 gold coins. Compared to the actual value of the wood, it was almost no different from picking it up for free. One could imagine the huge profit that could be made. If this batch of wood could be cashed in, Yang Rui's value would immediately double.
With Zuo Feng by his side, Yang Rui smoothly completed the handover with the eunuch in charge of this batch of wood. Fortunately, Yang Rui had a storage ring with him. Although the space of 1000 * 1000 * 1000 cubic meters could only accommodate ten to twenty thousand people, it was very suitable for storing wood, food and other basic resources. It could be used in every corner of the space. 2,700,000 to 2,800,000 units (cubic meters) of wood only occupied a small part of the space. It would not even affect the capacity of people.
"Thank you Master Zuo and Master Assistant Secretary for your help. This is a small token of my appreciation. I hope Master Zuo can accept it …"
The delivery of the low-grade wood was completed. Yang Rui and Zuo Feng returned to the Zuo Manor. He took out 10000 gold coins as thanks. It was not that Yang Rui had too much money to spend. It was that the profit this time was not small. If he communicated with Zuo Feng, there might be a similar opportunity.
"Blazing Sun is really a wonderful person. I will accept your kindness. However, I still need to remind Blazing Sun that although the quality of the wood is good, it is on the verge of being damaged. Otherwise, it would not be so easily transferred to Blazing Sun. Therefore, Blazing Sun needs to use it as soon as possible. Or use a special method to preserve it.
The only thing is that the wood has been marked by the government. It can no longer be sold to people other than Inhumans. I also need to remind Blazing Sun in advance. "
As Zuo Feng spoke, he very casually took the gold coins from Yang Rui.
Yang Rui, on the other hand, felt a chill run down his spine when he heard Zuo Feng's praises. The words "wonderful woman" coming from Zuo Feng's mouth really gave him goosebumps! After chatting with Zuo Feng for a while, Yang Rui excused himself and left.
After leaving Zuo Feng's manor, Yang Rui took the Teleportation Circle to Dong Ah County. After that, he used the Flying Carpet to rush towards Wei Tang Town.
"Fragrant Yellow Sandalwood, Black Sandalwood, Purple Rosewood, Chicken Wing Wood, Iron Wood …"
This time, he really earned a lot. Yang Rui rode the Flying Carpet. He looked at the wood that he obtained.
Zuo Feng had told Yang Rui before he left that the wood could no longer be used to trade with NPCs. However, Yang Rui was not worried about selling it. With the development of the players' territory, they would need more and more high-grade wood. Even many game items would need a lot of high-grade wood. Therefore, there was still a wide market for these wood.
Yang Rui was also not worried about storing the wood. According to Zuo Feng or the carpenter beggar's advice, the high-grade wood would be stored after special treatment. However, Yang Rui had the Storage Ring with him, so he did not need to go through so much trouble. Inside the Storage Ring, other than the normal metabolism of living creatures, it was basically in a static state. Therefore, the wood would not be damaged when stored in the Storage Ring. It would only take up a certain amount of space.
Looking at the dazzling array of high-grade wood in the Storage Ring, Yang Rui remembered that he had purchased high-grade wood when he first entered the game. Only then did he realize that he had not contacted Manager Eileen of the game trading platform for a long time. When Yang Rui opened the communication channel with her, he saw that there were many messages from Manager Eileen.
"… I'm sorry, I haven't checked the communication channel for a long time. I didn't know that Manager Eileen had contacted me so many times, hehe!"
After Yang Rui looked through the communication with Eileen's manager, he took the initiative to reply to her. After all, he had worked with her gaming platform before.
"Oh, Mr. Blazing Sun, you've finally opened the communication channel! There's news about you everywhere on the forum. I guess you've been very busy! "
Manager Eileen replied not long after. At this time, she had a deeper understanding of Yang Rui through various channels in the game. She was no longer as worried about Yang Rui's trading ability as she was at the beginning of the game.
"I'm really sorry that I missed so much of your news …"
"It's okay, I just wanted to keep in touch with customers like you. At first, I was just asking about the low-grade wood. After that, it was about the same thing. I'm mainly looking for the possibility of continuing to work with you, hehe …"
"Hmm, if that's the case, there are a few things that I would like to work with Manager Eileen …"
"That's great!"
“.....”
During the conversation with Manager Eileen, Yang Rui had unknowingly arrived at Weitang Town. During the process, Yang Rui told Manager Eileen that he wanted to sell a large amount of high-grade wood. He also established a new website with her to publish information.
