After the divorce, I became a mountain god
Chapter 385: Being on guard against others is essential
When Boss Li saw the address sent by Xu Boan, he carefully confirmed it several times and found that the place looked very familiar!
This warehouse turned out to be the one that he had just vacated!
After confirming this, Boss Li immediately began to have doubts in his heart.
"Why is Mr. Xu's rosewood placed here? Didn't I just give up this warehouse? This is definitely not the place where Mr. Xu keeps rosewood!"
"Did he just arrange for someone to tinker with the redwood and put it back in? But this is totally unnecessary. We are about to trade with each other, is it necessary to re-open the warehouse in such a short time?"
"Something is wrong. This is very wrong. Is there something wrong?"
Because of this concern, Boss Li thought about it, picked up the landline phone on the desk, and dialed a number.
"Lucas, come here for a moment!"
Boss Li gave this simple instruction, and after receiving a response, he hung up the phone.
Soon, there was a knock on the heavy mahogany office door. Boss Li simply replied "Come in", and the door was opened, and a middle-aged man in a suit and tie walked in.
The man had naturally curly blond hair and a burly build, but his mouth was filled with a gentle smile, and there was a playful light in his blue eyes, making him look cynical.
This is the Lucas that Boss Li mentioned. He is a professional manager he recruited from the Aeseliya Federation. When he is not here, this person is fully responsible for all matters related to the company here.
Lucas walked to Boss Li's desk with a smile and said in broken Chinese, "Oh, my dear boss! You're looking for me!"
Boss Li nodded and said, "I told you before that there will be a transaction in the near future. How are the arrangements going?"
Lucas said with a smile: "Boss, don't worry! Everything has been arranged. I have prepared ten flatbed trailers and related accessories. I have added two escorts to each vehicle. It is fully equipped and can set off at any time!"
Boss Li was quite satisfied with what he said. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, not bad. You are very vigilant. It seems that you are more thoughtful than I thought."
Lucas smiled and said, "Boss, you think too highly of me. This is all because of your teaching and example. I have been learning from you for so many years. Even if I am stupid, I must have made some progress, right? After all, the volume we are taking in this time is so large, we must ensure that nothing goes wrong."
Boss Li said approvingly, "Yes, I thought so too. I feel relieved that you can make such a comprehensive arrangement."
Lucas blinked and said, "Boss, is there any news about this deal? When will we do the deal?"
Boss Li looked at his watch and said, "Go and get everyone ready. We'll set off in half an hour."
"Okay! Got it, boss. I'll arrange it right away!" Lucas said in a firm tone, then said goodbye and left.
Xu Bo'an was waiting for Boss Li and his group to arrive in the warehouse. With nothing to do, he simply started observing the bonsai.
In Kaoshan Village, all activities are proceeding in an orderly manner.
Only Li Wufu's hunting team did not go into the woods to hunt as usual. At this moment, they were busy with other villagers in the open space in the middle of the earth building.
Li Wufu and his companions had a good harvest when hunting in the mountains yesterday, so they did not go into the mountains today. Instead, they asked some villagers to help them pluck the hair and gut the rabbits, pheasants, badgers, wild boars and some animals that Xu Boan did not recognize. Some people were also smoking the meats with wood fire.
The village chief Li Kanshan had nothing to do, so he helped everyone deal with the prey.
For ordinary people who seldom eat meat throughout the year, collecting meat is a very happy job.
After all, this also means that life is more hopeful.
Everyone was working and chatting at the same time, and everyone seemed to be in a good mood.
A young man who was stoking the fire wiped the tears from his eyes and couldn't help complaining: "Old village chief, bacon is too troublesome to make. It's not as good as salted meat. Why should we go to all this trouble?"
Before Li Kanshan could say anything, a middle-aged woman said, "What do you know, kid? Everyone knows that salted meat tastes good, but you know that too! Salt is so expensive, how can we waste it on it?"
Another person also agreed, "That's right. It's good to have something to eat. You're just lucky. Since you came back, our lives have improved a lot because of the care of the mountain god. If you had stayed in the village, you would know that you can't eat a single grain of meat all year round, so how could you have the opportunity to be picky and choosy?"
The young man stuck out his tongue and said, "I understand, Auntie. I just said it casually and I didn't mean anything else."
"Alright, alright, young man, you are at the age of growing up, it's normal to be greedy, you two must have been like this when you were young!" As he spoke, Li Kanshan laughed, walked to the young man and said, "These branches are very choking when burned. Come, I have experience in this job, I will help you tend the fire, you go and help depilate these animals."
The young man nodded gratefully, squinted his eyes, stood up and ran to the side.
Xu Boan saw it and understood it instantly.
There is no refrigerator in this place to store the meat conveniently, so the meat can only be preserved by salting or smoking. Salt is really expensive and rare. They are reluctant to use the refined salt that the Mountain God gave them last time, so they have to use smoking to preserve the meat!
Xu Boan thought about it, wondering whether he should find a way to bring some refrigeration equipment such as refrigerators or cold storage to these little guys to store food.
This is not difficult. At most, you can buy a diesel generator or a solar generator to drive the equipment.
However, this thought only flashed through Xu Boan's mind for a moment and was quickly dispelled.
Firstly, these things are too high-tech compared to the bonsai world, and it may not be a good thing for them to rush in.
Secondly, if you want these things to be used by the little ones, they must be reduced to normal sizes, otherwise the little ones won’t be able to control them, and even opening the door may be a problem.
The electricity consumption of these electrical devices is much more dangerous than those toy trains and cars. If, according to the rules of the bonsai world, Xu Boan shrinks the overall size of the devices in order to put them in, and some of the mechanical functions cannot operate or transform normally, it may cause various accidents or dangerous situations, which would be not worth the loss.
For example, after the diesel generator is put in, will the series of processes of converting diesel into electricity still proceed smoothly like in the real world? Will the voltage still be guaranteed to be 220 volts, and will it be able to drive the shrunken refrigeration equipment? These are all unknowns. If you are not careful, you may have a major accident.
Let the people here deal with it according to their current living habits. Later, we can give them more salt and more choices.
Thinking of the refrigerator and cold storage, Xu Boan thought of the six huge peaches he had just obtained from the peach tree yesterday. Xu Boan temporarily placed these peaches in a large vase in the mountain temple, which was also a good place for Xu Boan to hide things at present.
Although the cave where gold, silver and jewelry were stored could also store these things, Xu Bo'an didn't dare to put such edible things in there rashly, for fear that they would be eaten by other small animals or insects.
But peaches are fresh food, so just leaving them like this is not a good idea!
Besides, the vase is just an ordinary container after all, it has no cooling and preservation effect, and no anti-theft and anti-intrusion function, which is really not good.
Later, I can put a small freezer in this bonsai, find an uninhabited place in the back mountain and put it in the cave. After connecting it to a generator, it will become my own unique storage space!
You can also put a safe in it, so it will be safer and more convenient to store your things in it later.
If you have more things in the future, you can use some mechanical means to directly hollow out a mountain and pour concrete inside. If you are still not sure, you can directly use steel plates to build your own storage cellar.
Thinking of this, Xu Boan smiled with satisfaction and praised himself for his sudden inspiration.
After returning home, the first thing to do is this.
After a while, Xu Boan's phone rang. Seeing that it was Boss Li calling, Xu Boan answered it with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Xu, we'll be there soon, about a minute." Boss Li greeted.
Xu Boan smiled and said, "Okay, I'm right here. I'll go open the door now."
The warehouse is quite large, and it takes Xu Boan a minute to walk to the front door.
Soon, the door opened, and Xu Bo'an looked at Boss Li and his group, and suddenly felt a little worried.
He found that the people brought by Boss Li were not ordinary people. Their eyes revealed a fierceness. Some of them even had a murderous aura, as if they had killed someone before.
However, Xu Boan also knew that this country allowed the use of some modern thermal weapons, and there were also mercenaries, so this did not seem very strange. Moreover, the amount of money involved in this business was huge after all, so it was normal for the other party to be cautious.
It is important to be on guard against others. This is a wise saying summed up by our ancestors! Even Xu Bo'an, who has a golden finger, has been very vigilant, not to mention ordinary people like Boss Li.
Boss Li was even more shocked when he saw that Xu Boan was alone.
In his opinion, such a big business requires some help, otherwise it would be very sad if something unexpected happened.
Or maybe, this Mr. Xu is not alone, but has already set up an ambush in the warehouse, preparing to attack him?
After all, this was the first time for the two to do business. Apart from the young boss Song Zhixia acting as the middleman, there seemed to be no connection between the two of them, let alone any trust. Moreover, this was abroad, and if he could shirk his responsibility and say he knew nothing, the middleman would not be able to know the truth.
Thinking of this possibility, Boss Li instantly decided that he had to be careful.
"Mr. Xu, I've heard from Boss Song that you are young and promising. I didn't expect you to be so young!" Boss Li said with a smile and extended his hand to Xu Bo'an.
In fact, Xu Bo'an is almost 40 years old and can't really be considered a young man. It's just that because of the use of incense and vows to strengthen his physical fitness in recent days, Xu Bo'an's appearance and body look much younger than his peers.
It's like a star and a crosstalk master of the same age. Although both are talented, there is a real difference in appearance! It's also easier to believe that the former is younger.
Xu Bo'an didn't explain much. He smiled and shook hands with Boss Li, saying, "Boss Li, you are joking. Your business is amazing. I never thought that you are the head of a multinational company."
Boss Li waved his hand and said, "Haha, you flatter me. This is not a multinational company. It's just a small company opened here."
"Boss Li is too modest. Such a large amount of cargo is not something that an ordinary small company can handle." Xu Bo'an had previously communicated with Boss Li about the approximate quantity and price of rosewood, so he also knew that Boss Li was a man of strong financial resources.
Boss Li said with a smile: "Haha, Mr. Xu. Let's not brag about business for now, otherwise it will lead to more trouble. Let's check the goods first."
"Yes, yes, yes. This is the first time I do this kind of business. I don't have much experience. I'm sorry to make a fool of myself, Boss Li. Please come in!" Xu Bo'an turned sideways and made an inviting gesture.
Boss Li did not go in directly, but first said to a man in his fifties wearing a long gown beside him: "Master Wang, come with me to take a look at the goods!"
Then he instructed Lucas and the others behind him, "Lucas, you and the other brothers wait outside first. Remember to remind everyone to keep their eyes open."
Boss Li thought it through very thoroughly. If he took everyone in with him, if the other party was cheating, then they would all be caught. And as long as he left someone outside to guard, if there was any accident, the brothers outside could still act according to the circumstances.
In addition, if Xu Bo'an was really alone, and if there were fewer people on his side entering, it would appear more sincere. But if a large group of people rushed in, what would he do if others misunderstood that he was trying to rob people?
It's such a big business, and the other party can provide so much rosewood. I believe there must be some other stock. We must establish a good relationship with them.
With this thought in mind, Boss Li followed Xu Bo'an into the warehouse, and was stunned. Master Wang standing next to him had a regretful expression on his face, smacking his lips with regret, and seemed to be hesitant to speak for several times.
Xu Boan was just about to ask him what he wanted to say, when suddenly, a crisp sound was heard outside the warehouse door. Boss Li's face suddenly changed, and then, an arrogant voice was heard.
"Brothers, from today on, from now on, I have the final say in this company. If anyone else is blind, they will end up like this idiot just now!"
