The rookie returns and flies in the apocalypse
Chapter 4 Energy Crystal
Grandma said anxiously:
"Girl, you have to use money yourself. The mortgage has not been paid off yet. Knowing that you have contributed so much money to the family, Xiao Zheng still won't make trouble with you. No, no, grandma can't have it."
Grandma had never seen more than 10 yuan in her life, and she was so anxious that she even forgot about the extremely cold weather.
"Grandma, don't worry about me. I have changed my job and am selling houses. I just sold a villa. The commission is high and I can afford it."
I didn't plan to tell my grandma that she was divorced. If I did, it would only add to the old man's worries.
If only grandma was alone, Zuo Ling would be willing to give more.
According to the Zuo family's temperament, it is difficult to use money wisely, and no matter how much you give, it will be useless.
Fortunately, grandma can still hold back now, just in case...
Grandma was doubtful:
"The commission is so high? Don't lie to grandma. No, no, grandma doesn't want it. You use it to pay off the mortgage. Make sure you pay it off as soon as possible, so as not to feel like you're living in someone else's house."
Feeling the warmth from the old man, Zuo Ling felt warm and wanted to go back and see grandma.
If I don’t see him now, I’m afraid I won’t see him again in the future. Zuo Ling’s eyes are getting wet.
But she doesn't want to see the Zuo family again, and the Zuo family won't let her go until she peels off a layer of skin.
In this life, she will not let them exploit her like she did in the previous life. Going back will only embarrass grandma who is caught in the middle.
"Grandma, don't worry about me. By the way, stock up on shelf-stable cabbage, radish, potatoes, and dried vegetables to be prepared."
If a catastrophe comes, life in the country will be much easier than in the city.
At least the food and drink are better than in the city.
The cities are too dependent on various supplies and are far less self-sufficient than the countryside.
Of course, there are disadvantages.
Rescue, first save the city, then the suburbs, and finally the countryside.
Zuo Ling finally put down the phone after repeatedly telling her grandma and her grandma repeatedly promising to stock up on more supplies.
I opened the bank app and transferred 10 yuan to my grandma's card. I breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it, and made the call again.
"Hey, Xiao Zuo, come to work tomorrow. You've taken several days off."
The person who answered the phone was Zuo Ling's department manager.
"Manager, I was just about to tell you that my mother-in-law is sick and the family can't spare any staff. I want to resign to take care of her."
"Ah?" The manager was surprised, "Xiao Zuo, think about it, it's not easy to find a job. Our unit is very profitable. We just negotiated two big deals, and the boss is preparing to raise our salary."
Salary increase? When the end of the world comes, everyone will be unemployed, and they won’t be able to earn it for a few months.
"I have no choice, and I don't want to resign. The family really can't spare any manpower. If I don't resign, my husband will have to resign. Fortunately, he earns more than me, so he can only keep one."
Zuo Ling's lies became smoother and smoother as he told them.
"Okay, you come over tomorrow to hand over."
The words have come to this, and the manager can’t give me much advice.
The next day, Zuo Ling handed over the work neatly.
She has always been a loner and doesn't socialize much with her colleagues. She just says a few polite words and says goodbye, and that's it.彡彡訁凊
Walking out of the building, looking at the hustle and bustle of people and cars, the unconscious people are still enjoying their comfortable time.
Sigh, these good days are numbered.
Next, Zuo Ling plans to visit the Kyoto antique market to find a special kind of jade.
Special jade is hard to find, so Zuo Ling goes to try his luck.
First stop, Panyuan.
Pan Garden is quite famous in China and even around the world. Anyone who loves antiques can visit Pan Garden.
There are not many people in Pan Yuan, and there are only a few customers. The clerks are either chatting or playing poker and bragging.
There are customers coming into the store, but there are very few people asking for help.
The most I can say is: If you like it, I will introduce it to you.
Zuo Ling likes this kind of shopping environment very much. It's like flies buzzing in your ears, making it difficult to calm down and look at things.
She sees things very quickly and only pays attention to jade.
I walked around a lot, upstairs and downstairs, my legs were sore from walking, but I couldn't find anything.
When I was disappointed, I saw sellers setting up street stalls somewhere.
At noon, it was time to eat. The vendors were eating and drinking. After smelling the food, Zuo Ling was also a little hungry.
He stroked his protesting belly and walked towards the stall.
As soon as I saw the second house, my eyes lit up. A piece of light green jade the size of two fingernails was placed randomly among a large pile of jade.
Zuo Ling reached into his bag and grabbed a large handful from the bag of baking soda powder that had been prepared. He held the person behind his back, rubbed his hands together a few times, and thinly covered his hands with baking soda powder.
Pretending to be casual, he looked left and right.
The stall owner was a rough man in his early forties. He was chewing a flatbread and drinking beer. Someone came and greeted him while eating:
"What do you want to buy? Just take a look."
Seeing Zuo Ling looking through the large pile of goods, they were all worthless trinkets. As the weather was hot, his enthusiasm for sales dropped by more than half, so he let Zuo Ling browse through them without saying much.
Zuo Ling was pleasantly surprised when she found another piece of cyan jade. The cyan jade was twice the size of the light green one.
The two jade stones are different in color, and both contain light and messy golden filaments. You can't tell them at all unless you look carefully.
Picking up the light green jade, he asked the stall owner:
"How much does this cost?"
The stall owner glanced at it: "500."
He bought a lot of goods. On average, it was 50 yuan a piece. Even if Zuo Ling cut the price by half, he would still earn 200 yuan.
"What about this piece?" Zuo Ling picked up the blue jade again.
"2000."
This piece is much larger than the light green jade. Jade is not priced based on the size of the piece, but for large quantities of goods, the size of the piece can really determine the price.
Zuo Ling felt at ease. The stall owner had no idea what these two pieces of jade were.
Otherwise, I would never quote this price.
"Two pieces of 300."
The stall owner's eyes twitched, "Hey!" Here comes someone who doesn't follow common sense.
Dissatisfied:
"Girl, you are so good at bargaining. Even if you kill like this, I can't even put my pants on."
Zuo Ling smiled:
"Brother is really good at joking. Crystals are not valuable. If I buy them at the price you said, I can't even wear my pants."
In the eyes of ordinary people, energy crystals are just ordinary crystals, Zuo Ling said.
It’s rare for a girl to talk about her underpants. The stall owner was very surprised and said with a smile:
"500, you have to let me earn some money no matter what. Girl, the price you gave is too low."
Zuo Ling picked up the light green jade and found fault:
"Brother, I'm not going to kill you for the price. It's so thin that beads can't be turned on, and there's a risk of breakage if you're not careful. The materials will be wasted, so I can only make a small pendant."
He also pointed to the blue jade:
"This piece is thicker, but unfortunately the quality is not good and it's not clean. I can carve a small thing at most. 300 is a lot."
It is normal for customers to find faults in order to bargain for a lower price. The stall owner is used to it and is not angry. He waves his hand:
"At least 400, no, you can go and look elsewhere."
"350, you step back and I will give way."
"..."
The two negotiated the price seriously, and finally settled the deal for 350.
When the business is done, the stall owner will say as usual:
"You didn't make any money from this business. Next time I want to carve some gadgets and come to my brother's stall to have a look. You have to let me make some money."
"Okay, okay, I'll definitely come, I'll definitely come..."
After buying the jade he wanted, Zuo Ling was in a good mood and cooperated with the stall owner by saying a few words.
Suppressing the joy in his heart, Zuo Ling went around all the remaining stalls but couldn't find what he needed.
Satisfied, I returned to the car and couldn't wait to take out the two pieces of jade and shine them again and again in the sun.
Both pieces are energy crystals. People in the world don't know the goods and sell them as ordinary crystals.
In the Ding family in the previous life, Zuo Ling understood that energy crystals are divided into 10 major color systems, cyan, orange, yellow, green, blue, red, purple, black, white, and gold.
Each color system is divided into different subcategories.
Cyan is the lowest level. For each higher level, the energy of crystals of the same color quality and volume is 10 times that of the next level, but the value is not 10 times higher, but higher.
Each person who awakens supernatural powers can absorb different energy crystals.
The highest level energy crystal that Zuo Ling absorbed in the Ding family was yellow.
It is said that the Ding family owns green, blue, red, and purple energy crystals. I heard from the Ding family's children during the mission.
The Ding family had never been absorbed by Zuo Ling, who was very honest and didn't ask any questions.
The three-color energy crystals of black, white, and gold exist in legends, and no one has ever seen the real thing.
For energy crystals of the same color, the darker the color, the cleaner and more transparent the texture, and the greater the energy.
The cyan energy crystal that Zuo Ling bought was the lowest level, and even so, it was not very common.
Fortunately, she had absorbed something similar in her previous life, so she wasn't worried about not being able to absorb it.
He turned his hands over and sighed. He couldn't absorb the energy crystal to awaken the space power now. He had to wait until someone from the Ding family came to absorb it.
She lived a confused life in the Ding family and never cared about it.
I didn't pay attention to whether the Ding family had the means to detect and activate the superpower, so I couldn't take the risk.
Zuo Ling accidentally knew that baking soda can prevent the absorption of supernatural powers.
She didn't know why.
"Girl, you have to use money yourself. The mortgage has not been paid off yet. Knowing that you have contributed so much money to the family, Xiao Zheng still won't make trouble with you. No, no, grandma can't have it."
Grandma had never seen more than 10 yuan in her life, and she was so anxious that she even forgot about the extremely cold weather.
"Grandma, don't worry about me. I have changed my job and am selling houses. I just sold a villa. The commission is high and I can afford it."
I didn't plan to tell my grandma that she was divorced. If I did, it would only add to the old man's worries.
