Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

That night, Liu Zhonglun booked a hotel nearby for the two of them. After all, his house was allocated by his unit and was a bit small, and he was worried that the two of them would not be used to living at home.

In the lounge bar on the first floor of the hotel, the two chatted for nearly two hours.

"When will you be back?"

Zhao Qin understood that he was asking about gold, and calculated in his mind, "October is about right. By the way, Brother Liu, how much is appropriate for you to bring back at a time?"

Liu Zhonglun took out a cigarette and lit one when Zhao Qin waved his hand.

"Ah Qin, with such a large amount of gold coming back, other departments will pay attention to it. Let me say hello to the bank. How much do you have?"

"My production is pretty good, at least 200 kilograms a month, and I can get one ton in five months."

"There are too many. Don't transport them all at once. Try shipping them in three batches."

Zhao Qin nodded. The amount he reported had doubled. In three times, he could mix in half of the copper. Alas, it seemed that it would take another two years to wash the gold underground.

"You've been storing all this gold since it came back?"

"Yes, I have no intention of doing gold business. When the right opportunity comes, I will just make a move."

"Large reserves still need to be reported, so be careful not to cross the line accidentally."

"Thank you, Brother Liu. I understand."

Liu Zhonglun waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. You donated more than 100 million yuan, but you don't even have a few tickets for the opening ceremony?"

Zhao Qin grinned, "Okay, I'll go to the capital to ask for them later, and I'll leave three for you then."

"Haha, what a brother."

After chatting for a while, Liu Zhonglun left and reminded him to come over early tomorrow morning and have breakfast together before leaving.

When Liu Zhonglun got home, his wife asked Zhao Qin about the purpose of his visit.

Liu Zhonglun did not hide anything and told the whole story, "I am a little confused. I believe Aqin has a kind heart, but if he just wants to donate some taxes, he can go through the formal channels.

There is absolutely no need to do this, and let me bear a certain amount of responsibility. This is not his principle in life."

His wife remained silent, listening to her husband trying to figure out the reason.

"According to what you said, Ah Qin's request this time is not only a little difficult for you to do, but he actually doesn't want you to do this, right?"

Liu Zhonglun nodded, "I can sense his embarrassment before he spoke."

His wife suddenly turned over and pressed on him, scaring him so much that he almost jumped up, "We're discussing something. I'm too tired today..."

"It's no use at all... What are you thinking about? I suddenly thought of a possibility."

"what?"

"I heard there are a lot of treasures in the sea. Do you think there is a possibility that Qin has come across a treasure, and there is a lot of gold in it that needs to be washed ashore?"

Liu Zhonglun's expression changed again and again, and after a while he sneered, "How can there be so much gold? The exploration teams of the offshore countries will screen it several times every year.

You will just let your imagination run wild, okay, go to sleep."

"What I said is a possibility, right? Let's go to sleep." His wife turned over and turned off the light.

In the darkness, Liu Zhonglun's eyes remained open. Perhaps, his wife's unintentional words were the truth.

On the other hand, after listening to Zhao Qin's arrangement, Chen Xue also raised a question, "Qin, you are too straightforward. Brother Liu might be suspicious of something."

"There's no other way. Since we need his help in this matter, we can't hide it anymore because he has to bear some responsibility.

As for what he guessed, don't worry, I have a backup plan."

……

In the early morning, Zhao Qin didn't see anything interesting from Liu Zhonglun's expression. The two families had breakfast together in the hotel and then waved goodbye.

It was already noon when Zhao Qin got home, and he stayed in his restaurant until the evening.

There are still nine days before the new store opens. Sister Yu has been very busy during this period, and Chen Xue can only help a limited amount.

It's not that Chen Xue is incompetent, but Zhao Qin deliberately doesn't let her participate too much. Multiple management is a terrifying thing. Even he himself never gives orders to anyone other than Sister Yu.

I returned home in the evening and Tu Qun came shortly after.

"Aqin, the teacher in Xiamen has sent me the drawings. If it is confirmed, I will consider starting construction in the next two days."

"I've looked at the drawings, and your budget is fine. I'll have someone pay you 30% tomorrow. If you need money in the future, just let me know."

Tu Qun felt relieved. He had already received 30% of the payment before he even started the job. He had never taken on such a project before. His family was really nice.

"Don't worry about the quality of the project. I will use good materials even if it doesn't make money."

"Brother Qun, I believe you on this point. By the way, have you seen Lin Hai recently?" Although he didn't have time before, Zhao Qin didn't forget that he had some small accounts to settle with the other party.

"This guy has been a little mysterious recently. I only saw him once in a KTV half a month ago. Besides him, there was also Lin Congjun.

By the way, they gathered around a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, and were quite fawning on him. I had never seen that middle-aged man before.

Do you want me to dig him out?"

Zhao Qin waved his hand. "I'm just asking casually. Just go about your business."

After Tu Qun left, Zhao Qin took out his cell phone and dialed a number. "Brother Lin, last time we talked about dinner, I was too busy here to have time. Can you tell me when you are free? I will host you.

Hometown flavor? Okay, let’s book it there, tomorrow night, okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Qin smiled. No matter what the other party wanted to do, he planned to destroy it.

The reason is very simple, Lin Congjun might be doing something for Wu Tiao.

He walked to Lao Luo's house and said, "Aqin, didn't you say you went to Xia City to look at the boats?"

"Everything is going well with the ship. It is estimated that it will be delivered in May or June next year. Uncle Luo, you have to accompany us on the first voyage. Without veterans like you and my father,

I’m really not at ease.”

Lao Luo smiled happily, "Sure, I just want to see what a 70-meter-long ship looks like. Dinner at home tonight? I'll ask your aunt to kill a duck."

"No, Uncle Luo, do you want to use the boat at home?"

"Why, you want to use it?" Lao Luo took out the boat handle without saying anything, "I'll let Asi accompany you?"

"No need, I can just call Ah He."

Taking the boat handle, Zhao Qin called Ah He and brought a steel chisel, and the two went out to sea.

"Brother, let's go fishing at sea?" He looked at the steel chisel and it didn't look like it was for fishing.

"No, you will understand if you go out to sea with me. Remember, you are not allowed to tell anyone what I do later, not even your grandma."

"Brother, don't worry."

Driving out to sea, we arrived at the place where bird's nests were harvested. "Brother, didn't they say they only harvest them once a year?"

"Don't talk too much. Wait for me on the boat."

After a while, Zhao Qin entered the tunnel. This time he did not go to the left to enter the cave, but walked to the right. There were two forks here. One was where the swallows flew, and the other had been built up at this moment.

Zhao Qin poked with the steel chisel for a long time, and finally he was strong enough to pry the bricks up.

When the room was big enough for one person to enter, he went in directly. The gold that was originally inside had already been taken away by his father and Chen's father.

But there are still a few boxes containing some jade ornaments, agarwood and the like.

He packed these things in waterproof bags and vacated all the empty boxes. He loaded the empty boxes onto the ship one by one and then sealed the bricks that had been pried open again.

If you don't bring a headlamp and take a closer look, no one will notice it.
