Chapter 14 Finding a Bank

After a lot of persuasion from Lu Xin, the two old men, who together were over 130 years old, sat down again.

But the old man still didn't appreciate it.

And Wei Erye still had that unsmiling face, sitting there drinking tea, and did not put away the bank card on the table.

Lu Xin thought for a while and said, "Grandpa, let me tell you something. I'm in business now."

When the old man heard the words, there was no surprise on his face, he just hummed to show that he was listening.

"I have a friend who does recycling of renewable resources and earns several million a year. I have also learned from him to do the business of recycling second-hand resources recently, and I have made some money. I think this business has great potential, so-called I plan to grow bigger and stronger."

Lu Zhenzhang waited for him to finish before asking: "What's your friend's name? How did you know each other? What does he mainly buy? Why does he want to take you?"

Although the old man has not been in business for many years, his thinking is still clear. After Lu Xin finished speaking, he immediately asked a few core questions.

Lu Xin knew that his grandfather was not easy to be fooled by, and he definitely couldn't make up random things. Fortunately, he had already thought about these issues on the way back.

At this moment, he immediately said: "His name is Tan Jiasheng, he is also from Jiacheng, and I am from my hometown. The company is at Chunhu. He went to our company to buy waste materials before, and he knew that I am also from Jiacheng, so he stayed. I got the prestige on the phone, and then I ate a few times together, and I became familiar with it after going back and forth.

He is mainly engaged in the recycling of scrap metals, such as gold, silver, copper and iron, which are in large quantities.

As for why he took me with him, it’s actually not that much. After all, the recycling of renewable resources is mainly based on personal ability, and there are channels to buy high-quality second-hand resources. There is no competition, but more of a kind of cooperation. relation. "

The old man nodded after listening, and asked again: "In that case, where did you get it from?"

Lu Xin said with a smile: "Grandpa, university is not only about studying, but also a process of accumulating contacts. A considerable number of my classmates stayed in Shenghai to work, and now many of them are already in the management level of the company.

I bought their company's waste materials at market prices, and they helped me match up and send me a favor, which was nothing more than a little effort. "

After speaking, Lu Xin repented secretly in his heart: "Grandpa, grandson didn't mean to lie to you on purpose, the main reason is that what he said was too shocking, and I'm afraid your old heart won't be able to bear it."

The old man nodded again after listening, "Then you said that you have earned a little, so what's going on?"

Lu Xin said: "I bought a batch of scrap copper wire at a low price, nearly 1 kilograms. Recently, the international copper price has risen, so I took advantage of the situation and made more than [-] yuan."

After a pause, Lu Xin said: "Actually, second-hand recycling is a bit similar to stock trading. You buy when the price of waste materials is low, and sell them when the price is high. The difference is that stocks fluctuate greatly, and you may even lose money." lost everything.

And no matter how much the price of materials falls, the goods are still in hand. At worst, I will not sell them, and I will sell them when the prices rise. "

The old man said: "There is still a difference. You need a lot of capital to hold goods, and you also need working capital."

Lu Xin nodded: "Grandpa, you are right. In fact, there was another batch of silver-plated copper core wires, more than 200 kilograms. At that time, they asked for 500 yuan per kilogram. I didn't have enough money, so I didn't buy it.

As a result, grandpa, guess what, the wire diameter of that batch of materials is only 0.68 mm, but the thickness of the coating is as high as 15 microns..."

Having said that, Lu Xin paused for a moment and asked, "By the way, Grandpa, do you know what the wire diameter and coating thickness mean? Let me explain to you..."

The old man interrupted and said, "I know that the smaller the diameter of the wire, the thicker the silver plating, and the higher the price."

Lu Xin gave a thumbs up, and continued, "I heard that they made nearly 10 tabu girls from that batch of goods."

"According to the diameter and thickness of the wire, the maximum is 800 yuan per kilogram, which is not up to the figure you mentioned..." The old man said, and then said: "Could it be that the price of silver has risen again recently?"

"Uh... yes, the price of international metals has generally increased recently, and the price of silver has also increased. It used to be four yuan and seventy-five-one grams, but now it has risen to five yuan, 5000 yuan per kilogram."

After Lu Xin finished speaking, a layer of cold sweat broke out on the back of his spine.

Good guy, the old man not only knows how to calculate, but also knows the price... It's a good thing he didn't lie, otherwise he would be finished.

Second Master Wei, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help asking at this moment: "Well, Xiao Lu... what is Dabuniu?"

Without waiting for Lu Xin to explain, the old man laughed and said, "Dabuniu is the Chinese translation of the English letter W, and it is also the English abbreviation of Wan. I told you to buy a smart phone to shake your vagina and integrate with the society, but you didn't listen to it. Listening to lake plays on your old radio."

Second Master Wei didn't speak.

Lu Xin secretly laughed inwardly when he saw it.

Then he said seriously: "Grandpa, I have already resigned, and now I rent a small factory in Yanggang District, specializing in the purchase of second-hand materials."

The old man nodded, "I guessed it."

Lu Xin was puzzled, "Ah, you guessed it?"

The old man said: "Of course! Every time you came back before, you would tell me about the people and things you met at work, but this time, you haven't mentioned the company at all, and I'm not old-fashioned. Why? Maybe you don't know?"

Lu Xin was a little ashamed.

Sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy.

Many times and many things, the elders are like a mirror in their hearts, but they just don't want to expose it, for fear of embarrassing the younger generation.

This can be regarded as a kind of life wisdom.

Lu Xin said sincerely: "I'm sorry, Grandpa, I didn't mean to hide it from you on purpose, but I'm just afraid that you will worry about me if you find out."

After a pause, Lu Xin said slowly: "In Shenghai, the housing prices are terribly high now, not to mention the city center, but in the old city of Yanggang District where I work, it costs 4 to [-] yuan per square meter. After working part-time for ten years, the money he earns is only enough to buy a toilet.

Originally, I had already planned that by the end of this year, if the work did not pick up, I would come back to my hometown and do a small business in the town, or farm with you and grandpa, and I would not starve to death no matter what.

But now that I have the chance, I want to give it a go. "

The old man nodded when he heard the words, "Okay! Since you have already considered it, then work hard. My hundreds of thousands are far from buying a house, so I will give it to you as capital."

"Grandpa, I..."

Before Lu Xin could finish speaking, the old man raised his hand and said, "Okay, that's the deal! As you said, if you lose money, you can come back to farm and raise. You won't die of hunger."

……

In the afternoon, while Grandpa and Wei Erye were playing chess, Lu Xin said to go upstairs to sleep.

After coming to his room, he locked the door, put down all the curtains, and then summoned the black door to enter the cyber world.

What he didn't expect was that the cyberworld, which had been cloudy and cloudy for so many days, was actually drizzled today.

He was worried that the rainwater was poisonous, so he didn't go out rashly. Instead, he tested it with a high-sensitivity detector and found that the pH value was only 2.1, which is very strong acid rain.

Being exposed to such rain for a long time will burn the skin.

Now Lu Xin understands why there are many cars on the road, the interiors of which look quite new, but the outer shells are rusty, as if they have been left for decades.

There are also signs and billboards on the road and outside the building that are also tattered.

Now he understands that it is all caused by acid rain.

Fortunately, there are raincoats in the hardware store.

Speaking of raincoats, this is something Lu Xin wanted to complain about.

The technology in this world is obviously so advanced, and various technologies make him amazed, such as battery technology, such as fully automatic hair clippers, but the raincoat is still very traditional, like a sack on the head.

Can't we study an "air raincoat" that can block rain without affecting people's movements?
In the past few days, he has also found a lot of cyberpunk information for research, and even downloaded the game specifically to experience it.

It is discovered that in the cyberpunk world, prosperity, fashion and vigor have nothing to do with it. Under the appearance of highly developed technology, crime and evil are concealed.

Darkness, narrowness, neon, and dampness are all used to describe the cyberpunk of "high-tech low life".

This world is probably about the same.

Lu Xin put on the "sack" and rubber gloves, and then walked out of the hardware store with a tool bag.

Put the tool under the seat cushion of the three-wheeled motorcycle, turn out a free half helmet from under the seat and put it on the head, and put down the mask, so as to avoid the acid rain directly on the face.

Then he drove the three-wheeled motorcycle he just bought towards the southeast direction on the compass.

The valuable supplies in the nearby store have been searched by him in the past few days, and he wants to look further afield.

After driving for about 5 minutes, the road has come to an end. The buildings here are denser. The buildings are close to each other. The distance between the buildings is less than one meter. The small windows are densely packed, just like the incense niches in the cemetery. Lu Xin felt very depressed.

This is also the farthest place Lu Xin has reached on foot before.

He has been inside the building, the area is very small, each room is about twenty or thirty square meters, and the people who live there are all poor people. Except for some rags, there is nothing of value in the room.

This is the slum in Cyberworld.

Lu Xin continued to drive forward, and finally, he saw a rather cool single-family building. The first floor was made of transparent glass, and the outside was covered with an alloy fence.

Through the fence glass, you can see that on the wall directly opposite the lobby, there is a line of gold-plated characters: Todd Union Bank.

"Damn it, it's actually a bank!"

Seeing the handwriting inside the building, Lu Xin was immediately overwhelmed with excitement.

He has been looking for banks around these days, but there are very few banks in the slums. He did not expect to find them today.

"Working, working..."

Lu Xin parked the motorcycle under the glass canopy at the entrance of the bank, then took off his raincoat, helmet and gloves.

Take the tool bag from under the cushion.

He took out the angle grinder, replaced it with a cutting blade, and cut directly at the gate.
