Chapter 505 Jade Business
At this time, Lin Hao had already activated the illusion skill, making Dibola fall into an illusion.
Then the two robbers supported the injured mine owner, dodged the bullets shot by the police, and came to the room where Lin Hao was hiding.
As soon as the three men came in, Lin Hao knocked two of them unconscious and injected some life energy into the debt-collecting mine owner to save his life.
Lin Hao temporarily threw the three people into the space, then opened the back door of the house, pretending that they escaped from the back door.
Lin Hao then weaved a scene in which the robbers fled out the back door in panic.
The two policemen who were trying to chase the robbers just rushed in and saw the robbers escaping from the back door. However, when they rushed out, the three robbers had disappeared in the crowd.
The police had no choice but to report the incident and then returned to the room, where they found Lin Hao pulling a nervous Dipola, hiding in a corner like a victim.
A police officer saw Lin Hao dressed luxuriously and was with a woman, so he took the initiative to comfort him:
"Mr. and Miss, are you all right?"
Lin Hao shook his head and said:
"It's okay. These robbers are too arrogant. They robbed in broad daylight. It's simply lawless!"
After saying that, Lin Hao looked at Dibola and asked:
"Honey, how are you? Why don't we go to the hospital for a check-up? After all, you're pregnant, so let's be careful!"
Although Diborah was a little frightened, her condition was relatively stable:
"It's okay, they're not coming for us, and I'm not injured, just take me home first!"
Then several more policemen came over. After Lin Hao took a statement, he took the opportunity to take Dipola back to the car.
Lin Hao hugged Dibola and comforted her softly:
"It seems that today's shopping trip is ruined. I will take you back and have a good rest. I will come to accompany you tomorrow, okay?"
"Hmm~!" Dibora's gentle means.
Then Lin Hao sent Dibola back to her home, and Lin Hao went to another villa and released the three people who had not yet woken up.
Seeing that the mine owner's wound was healing, Lin Hao immediately put on rubber gloves, picked up a scalpel, acted like a doctor, and began to perform surgery on him.
He simply and roughly made a long cut on his chest, then reached into his chest and pulled the bullet out.
"Ah~~~~!" Because there was no anesthesia, the mine owner was awakened by the pain.
And he just happened to see Lin Hao cutting him open, so he stared at Lin Hao with eyes wide open, as if his acting skills were about to burst out.
"Relax, I'm taking the bullet out for you!" Then she took the bullet out of his chest and placed it in front of him for him to admire.
When the mine owner saw the bullet, he knew he was saved, and he fainted.
Seeing that his body was beginning to soften, Lin Hao knew that he was about to die, so Lin Hao held his hand and input a week's life time.
The wound then stopped bleeding immediately and formed a scab at a speed visible to the naked eye.
But the injury is only this severe, and he will be back to full health in a few days.
Of course, if he wants to recover faster, Lin Hao just needs to input some more life time.
As the wounds on the mine owner's body scabbed over, he and his men woke up soon.
"What's your name?" Lin Hao asked directly.
Although Lin Hao could directly look through his memory, Lin Hao was still accustomed to asking directly and then comparing his memory to check his loyalty.
"My name is Qiao!" the mine owner replied softly, "I am 39 years old..."
The people of Diandian only have names, they don’t have surnames. The surnames we usually see, like Wu and Du, are not real surnames.
For example, "吴" means something similar to a respectful title such as Mr., or a prefix of address, usually before the name of a man of status or age.
The meaning of "Du" is similar. It is usually the prefix of women's names. The younger prefix is usually "Ma"!
After a cordial exchange with Lin Hao, including knocking out his two restless subordinates again, Lin Hao knew the whole story.
It turns out that Wu Qiao was originally from Shendian, a villager in a poor village. While digging a pond, he accidentally dug up a jadeite rough stone.
After some investigation, he discovered that there were three mines nearby.
So they mined some secretly, but they had no sales channels, and they did not dare to sell it to the big mine owners, let alone the government.
However, they heard that there were many rich people in Hong Kong Island, so they pooled their money and brought some jadeite, preparing to come to Hong Kong Island to sell it.
It was finally sold to a jewelry store, but the other party wanted to rob him, so he and his two men pulled out guns and threatened them.
As a result, after a fierce argument, the situation got out of control. It was not known whether the person in the jewelry store fired the gun accidentally or intentionally, but he shot Wu Qiao in the chest.
His two Shan State men also beat to death the other shop owner and his men.
Finally, when they were leaving, two policemen nearby happened to see them and started shooting at them without saying a word.
Lin Hao shook his head when he heard this. This was also an unlucky guy, but this guy was indeed very courageous. He actually went straight to Hong Kong Island to find channels. He had the ruthlessness to conquer the world.
This is a talented person who perfectly meets his requirements, so he said:
"You want to establish a long-term sales channel, how about we cooperate?"
Wu Qiao's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this. Although he didn't know how Lin Hao rescued the three of them, he guessed that Lin Hao's power must be considerable.
So Wu Qiao nodded vigorously and said:
"Of course, you are my savior, I am very much looking forward to working with you!"
In the following days, while Wu Qiao was recovering from his injury, the two reached a series of cooperation, and Lin Hao also gave Wu Qiao a lot of suggestions.
Lin Hao called the island country and asked the people from the Sakura Club to prepare some things.
After several days of contact, Lin Hao and Wu Qiao established a preliminary relationship of trust.
The reason why trust was established so quickly, in addition to the fact that Lin Hao was his savior, the assimilation ability of Lin Hao's hive consciousness was also a very important reason.
In recent years, Lin Hao has also discovered the effect of hive consciousness, which is through more communication, contact, and interaction with the target person.
This is far more effective than passively waiting for the hive consciousness to assimilate you or for others to become dependent on you.
A week later, seeing that Wu Qiao's injuries had basically recovered, Lin Hao went to the island country, took some things from the Sakura Club, and then returned to Hong Kong Island on the same day.
He took out an iron space ring and gave it to Wu Qiao, and gave him the authority to use the space ring. "Everything you need is in it. Go back and develop well. Control the jade mine as soon as possible. Dig a batch of jade and send it over first. As for the things you need, I will send them to you one by one."
To be honest, if Lin Hao didn't have many skills and the ability to control Wu Qiao at any time, Lin Hao really wouldn't have given the space ring to him.
"I understand!" Wu Qiao nodded.
This was an opportunity for him. He didn't expect that he would almost lose his life during his trip to Hong Kong Island, but he unexpectedly had such a wonderful encounter.
Sure enough, when God closes a door for you, he will definitely open a window for you.
Send Wu Qiao back to Shendian to develop on his own. Lin Hao will not care about Wu Qiao's affairs anymore. He only needs to build sales channels in Hong Kong Island.
Of course, if Wu Qiao needs anything, he can contact Lin Hao himself. Although Lin Hao is in Hong Kong Island, with the help of the space ring, it is very easy for him to support Wu Qiao!
Besides, it is overseas after all, so many inconvenient means can be used.
When Wu Qiao returned home safely, a group of people were gathered together, looking at the weapons on the ground.
Wu Qiao was not worried at all that they would pick it up, but was worried that they would not pick it up.
"Brother-in-law, what do you want us to do?"
As the saying goes, money makes cowards brave, and as soon as the weapons appeared, everyone became restless in minutes.
This is the terrible consequence brought about by modern thermal weapons, so gun ban is inevitable. Look at the United States, where guns can be bought at will, beautiful scenery, and happiness every day!
Who can bear this?
Wu Qiao then returned to the village, gathered his people, and began to paint a beautiful blueprint for the future. He also told them about the agreement he had reached with Lin Hao.
Of course, I would not tell them all, but I would selectively state some conditions that they would be happy to hear.
Simply put, they are only responsible for mining, and then sell the raw jadeite to Lin Hao's company in Hong Kong at a high price at one time.
Of course, in return, they need to select some raw stone reserves that are likely to be top-quality jadeite, and then sell them to Lin Hao at a low price, and the money will be shared by them individually.
As for how Lin Hao sold it and whether he would produce jadeite later, it had nothing to do with them. Although it was a bit overbearing, this was what Lin Hao deserved. No, this was Wu Qiao's gift to Lin Hao.
Seeing Wu Qiao, who was full of vigor and vitality, and the weapons and equipment he took out directly stimulated the hearts of all the men. And the generous conditions that were put forward one by one made Wu Qiao's men feel excited and their blood boil.
Then his brother-in-law immediately said loudly:
"Let's do it. It's just mining. Brother-in-law, we'll do whatever you say!"
"Done!"
"Done!"
"Done!"
So, Wu Qiao then integrated all the people from the three surrounding villages, including men, women, young and old, and directly formed a force headed by himself.
The three mines near Wu Qiao's village were all taken over by him.
Of course, the reason why he got it so easily was because this place had not been discovered yet. Once people discovered that there was a jade mine here, there would inevitably be countless disputes in the future.
This is also the reason why Lin Hao will spare no effort to support Wu Qiao.
He even wanted to allow Wu Qiao's power to exist for a long time, and would help him arm this power, preferably to gain local recognition.
This is the only way to legally continue to own the three mines, although the possibility is very slim.
It’s strange to say, but there is only one place where all the jadeite in the world is concentrated, and it is not only concentrated but also the best.
Although there are jade mines in other places, including the mainland, the quality varies.
If you talk about the top-notch ones, there are some more or less, but the content is extremely small. But in Shendian, the top-notch jadeite in a vein is there in large pieces.
Have you heard that besides China, there are other countries that have huge amounts of rough jade?
It’s really gone!
However, Lin Hao has a guess. It is said that when the earth was formed, many asteroids hit the earth.
Could it be an emerald asteroid that happened to hit this place when the earth was just formed, and landed right in the territory of Zhudian? The fragments and debris that flew out of the small stars on the ground fell around, such as the scattered emeralds in the nearby continents.
Lin Hao thinks this is very possible, and the possibility is very high.
While Wu Qiao was building his own power, Hong Kong and the island country were also not idle.
The island country purchased a large number of mineral mining tools, and after field investigations, they underwent partial modifications and then sent them to Wu Qiao to start mining jade.
Lin Hao went to the Monkey Kingdom, emptied out several of their storage warehouses, and then sent them directly to Wu Qiao.
With the support of Lin Hao, Wu Qiao quickly took control of the situation and invested a lot of manpower and material resources to mine jadeite raw stones.
On the Hong Kong Island side, Lin Hao focuses on import and export sales for Eternal Star, but does not directly engage in retail.
Therefore, Lin Hao recruited more than a dozen talents related to the jewelry industry. As for poaching talents from other jewelers, Lin Hao believed that it was just a normal flow of talents and a pure business behavior.
Later, Lin Hao set up a company called Eternal Jewelry, and also registered its shares under the name of Xingyuan Group.
Under the brand of Eternal Jewelry, franchise stores are being recruited, and these franchise stores need help from dynamic social elite groups.
Or protection.
It’s not that normal jewelry stores cannot be opened, but it’s because during this period of time, these social elite groups are booming, and the jewelry industry’s business cannot get rid of these social elite groups.
Apart from other things, there are robberies every other day and people are causing trouble in front of the jewelry store every day. How many ordinary people would have the courage to come to the store to shop?
Therefore, instead of being passive, it is better to turn passivity into initiative and find a suitable agent among these social elite groups, who can then be used to attack opponents in the future and safeguard other careers.
Lin Hao’s method is very simple, that is to treat everyone equally. Whoever’s territory my jewelry store is opened in will have a share.
What's more, Lin Hao has so many raw stones that he needs other people to help distribute them, and selling them to these social elite groups will definitely bring about countless new opportunities.
For example, gambling on jadeite is more interesting than gambling.
If you gamble, you may be cheated by scammers, and even if you win money, you may not be able to take it away. If you bet on horses, you may be manipulated behind the scenes.
However, there is no cheating or manipulation in jadeite gambling. The jade in the raw stone is either there or not.
This thing will not cause the jade to disappear depending on whether you purchase the raw stone or not, nor will it grow out of thin air.
As long as you spend money to buy a piece of raw stone and cut it, it will either be heaven or hell, it all depends on your fate!
Of course, this does not change the fact that gambling on stones is still gambling in nature, but it is better than gambling in that it is legal.
Although the essence of stone gambling involves gambling, its method is sales.
