At the same time that Li Yuan recognized Min Xia, Min Xia also recognized Li Yuan and froze in place.

Li Yan didn't know that they had met before, and was still wondering why his friend stopped.However, Qinghe and Haikuo knew it clearly, and embarrassment arose spontaneously.

Just when Qinghe Haikuo's toes were on the ground and he was about to break out of a castle, Li Yuan and Min Xia suddenly looked at each other and smiled, like old friends who haven't seen each other for a long time, they greeted each other warmly.

Li Yuan stepped forward and patted Min Xia on the shoulder twice: "Mr. Min, I met you again! What a coincidence!"

Minxia bowed politely: "Oh! What a coincidence, Miss Li Yuanyuan knew Li Yan before? Let me introduce myself again. I am also a good friend of Li Yan. I didn't expect that we are so destined."

Li Yan who didn't know it: So you guys know each other so well?

Haikuo muttered: "Captain Li is really amazing, he was so embarrassing just now, and he can still pretend nothing happened to get close to that person."

Qinghe thought: "This man named Minxia is really amazing. He was humiliated like that just now, yet he can still get close to Captain Li so calmly."

As for the true psychology of Li Yuan and Min Xia——

Li Yuan: "Damn it, Li Yan has been paid in advance. If I fall out with this person, wouldn't I be fetching water from a bamboo basket? It's okay, let's see if this person will make trouble."

Min Xia: "Damn it, is this person threatening me with my friend? I'll find out if she's real or not."

The two carefully created a happy scene.

Although Li Yan was puzzled, he also breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that the two looked so close, and it was due fate that Ms. Li found him as a guide, and she would never cheat herself.

After the enthusiasm between Li Yuan and Min Xia passed, Li Yan stepped forward, explained that he was Li Yuan's guide, and said that he would return the nutrient solution that Li Yuan gave him.Min Xia covered Li Yan's hand that was digging into his pocket, and said under Li Yan's puzzled eyes: "It's okay! You can accept Miss Li Yuanyuan's kindness!"

Li Yuanxin said: "Don't stop me, you don't have to accept my wishes, really." But she kept smiling and didn't make a sound.

Li Yan then said: "Since I'm Ah Min's friend, I'll invite everyone to have a light meal later."

The three people in Nibatuo Village naturally climbed up the pole: "Ah! How embarrassing that is!" "But this is brother Li Yan's wish." "We are not respectful."

There was no room for Min Xia to refuse.

Min Xia gritted his teeth and smiled: "Everyone has come from afar, and as the host, I have the honor of being a landlord. Since Ali invites you to dinner, I will be your guide with him!"

What else can Li Yuan say - I didn't expect to go around and ask Min to come down to be the guide.But he was also afraid that Min Xia would lead him into a ditch. If the old box head noticed the small movements of his group at this time, he might not have a good time in the future.So when explaining his purpose of coming, he revealed: Li Yan has already bought a pickaxe from him, and the pickaxe is in his bag, and it is for you, Min Xia.

Min Xia understood the meaning of her words, and had no chance to explain clearly to his friends his precautions against Li Yuan, whether to use the old box head's hand to eliminate future troubles, and take Li Yuan and the others around the mine, Introduce the situation of the mine.

Machinery roared everywhere in the mine. Some people sweated profusely wielding traditional tools, while others drove all kinds of machines to run non-stop.As soon as the mechanical arm shoveled down, a worker immediately stepped forward and used a pick to break the hard-pressed soil. The first hit was garbage, the second hit was garbage, the third hit was metal, and put it in the basket.Although it is called a mine, in Li Yuan's view, it is still a huge garbage dump.

Min Xia introduced: "We distribute picks at the mine and replace them with new ones every year, but the quality of the picks issued this year is so poor that the corners are chipped after more than two months of use." Show it to Li Yuan.

His pickaxe was full of scratches, and the tip of the pickaxe was chipped and rounded.It will probably take a lot of work to use this kind of pick to break the hard soil.

"I heard that these pickaxes were produced by Lao Zitou. The owner of the mine wanted to use the pickaxes as a gimmick to recruit people, and the quotation from Lao Zitou was cheap, so I used his."

Li Yuan pointed out bluntly: "Your boss doesn't care if your pickaxes work well or not, anyway, he doesn't need to dig by himself."

Min Xia shrugged, acquiescing to Li Yuan's statement.

Li Yuan said again: "Brother Liyan, why don't you take out the pickaxe I sold to you and give it to Brother Minxia to try?"

Li Yan agreed and took the pickaxe out of the bag.Although the old box head business is not limited to the old box head business in the mine, but Liyan bought the pickaxe on the old box head site, and it is not the old box head's goods, so he is careful.

Min Xia immediately changed the pickaxe, tried it out, and praised that the pickaxe was easy to use.

Li Yuan thought to herself: "It must be easy to use. This is a model made by Chu Silan. She is a mechanical engineering student. She spends all day in school tinkering with mechanics. Anyway, I don't understand much."

Min Xia tried the pickaxes, thought for a while, and said politely to Li Yuan: "Miss Li, I dare to ask - do you want to sell pickaxes in large quantities here?"

After spending some time with Min Xia, Li Yuan felt that although he had a bad stomach, he would not harm others casually, so she replied, "I don't dare to make too much of a big deal. Our production is small, so we only sell some."

"How much is the daily output?"

Chu Silan estimated to Li Yuan that if only pickaxes were produced, the daily output could reach more than 500 pieces, but this is not the way Li Yuan wants to express it.Li Yuan smiled and said: "The daily output is very small, and a batch can be produced in the near future, about [-] pieces."

Min Xia nodded, and continued to discuss with Li Yuan: "Actually, I have some connections, brother. I can sell in this mine on your behalf, and we will share the proceeds at that time—what do you think?"

Li Yuan nodded, and said resolutely: "This batch of goods can be sold to you. I believe in you and brother Liyan. But you can't use the method of sharing. I will sell it to you at cost price. How you sell it is up to me." in spite of."

Min Xia gritted his teeth in embarrassment: "Miss Li, it's a little hard to say, but I don't have that much start-up capital."

Li Yuan could understand: "It's very easy. You pay the deposit, and I'll deliver the goods to you. At the same time, I will send someone over to help. You will pay me back after you earn money."

Min Xia immediately felt that the woman in front of him became kind-hearted.He was so full of smiles that he almost recognized his god-sister.

Then he continued to visit the mine. At noon, Li Yan took everyone to dinner.

There is a small restaurant in the living area of ​​the mine. Although it is small and there are not many customers, it is decent.Li Yan led everyone in, and Li Yuan looked at the price - the cheapest instant noodles, a bowl of [-] Yingcao coins.

Seeing Li Yuan made her head ache, thinking that the food on this planet is really expensive, but luckily it was not spent on her own money.

Li Yan ordered four bowls of instant noodles, and they all came out in small bowls.Li Yan served a bowl of instant noodles to each of Li Yuan's three people, then went to the counter to get a small bowl, and shared the remaining bowl with Min Xia.

Li Yan was a little embarrassed and said: "The hospitality is not good, please bear with me."

Everyone quickly responded: "Where is it!" "It couldn't be better."

There is a special radiation measuring instrument in the dining area, and diners can measure the food served in the restaurant.Those present here are very curious. They took instant noodles to test and got the result—the radiation dose was within the normal value.

During the meeting, we talked happily, and initially finalized the cooperation model and the initial deposit amount between the two parties.

"If your goods are ready, send someone to wait for me at the place where we met this morning. From seven o'clock in the morning to nine o'clock in the evening, I will definitely pass by there."

"No problem, we're happy to work together."

Several people ate and drank enough, but they didn't enjoy themselves.Especially Li Yuan and Min Xia seem to be having a good time, but they are actually on guard against each other.

Li Yuan and the others did not look for other partners. They were sent to the parking lot by Min Xia and Li Yan to pick up the car, and then left the mine with their warm welcome.

Li Yuan wants to go back to the village within today. She originally planned to stay in the mine for a day today, investigate the market, and then visit the tree factory when she has the opportunity.I didn't expect to find a partner so smoothly, and I can continue to go to the tree factory to find business in the remaining half of the day.

Not long after leaving the mine, Qinghe and Haikuo finally couldn't hold back and raised their opinions one after another.

Haikuo said: "Captain Li, we are really at a loss by selling to that person at the cost price, so we only sold him three nutrient solutions."

Qinghe echoed, "We should talk to him about 6 or 4 points, that person can definitely buy our pickaxe for more than six nutrient solutions, so we can earn an extra hundred if we don't talk about it!"

Li Yuan felt that the two people in the back seat were really profiteers, and patiently explained: "I know what you said, but I have my own considerations. Supplying him with supplies and letting him sell them himself can mobilize his enthusiasm and make him If we open up the market quickly, he will be more willing to protect us as a supplier. And we can get back the funds quickly, otherwise we have to wait until he sells out to share the account."

"If we cooperate with him in the form of sharing, we are a partnership, and they control the sales channel, which means they have the initiative. But if we sell to him at a cost, we have an upstream-downstream relationship, and he has only one source upstream, and the initiative will be in our hands. hand."

"The amount of cooperation this time is only [-] pieces. If we finally find that he is unreliable, we will change the partner, or we will send someone to sell it ourselves."

When risks and benefits coexist, Li Yuan temporarily chose the way with relatively low risks.

After listening to Li Yuan's explanation, the two quieted down and slowly understood the meaning of the conversation.

Li Yuan took the opportunity to ask: "The first batch of goods was sent out, and only a deposit was charged. We haven't got back the payment from Min Xia, so we must send someone to watch him. Of course there is a reward for the dispatch—the final payment will be collected." Success will be the reward. How, do any of you want to do this expatriate job?"

Haikuo was silent, he still didn't dare to take it, he was a little afraid of strange things.Qinghe recalled his previous experience in Yingcao City, gritted his teeth, and mustered up his courage: "Captain Li, let me try."

Li Yuan replied: "Okay."

On the sand-yellow wilderness, the land is undulating, and there are more and more strange-shaped trees along the road.The motorcycle carried the three of them halfway, only to see the black spire of the building suddenly appearing behind the long hillside.The further up the motorcycle went, the more those buildings were revealed.

A city appeared before him.The buildings all over the mountains and plains are shining with the black color of metal.All kinds of tracks are intricate, and the building in the center gradually rises up. The whole looks like a huge wizard hat buckled on the ground.

All three looked sideways at him.

Qinghe said: "It's Yingcao City."

Haikuo stood on the pedal, stood upright, and exclaimed, "It's so big!" Qinghe grabbed the clothes on his back and reminded him to be careful.

Yingcao City, a big city with a population of millions, seems to be in front of you, but it is actually far away.

There are a lot of cities like this on Interstellar.But after seeing places like Nibatuo Village and Yingshou Settlement, and then seeing Yingcao City, Li Yuan still admired the huge contrast.

They passed Yingcao City and continued eastward.

Suddenly, a long siren sounded from behind, as if it was singing for the appearance of this giant black city.
