Chapter 10
“Two thousand yuans? Let me think about it . Su Jing doesn’t really know the price of Sandalwood, but he also felt that the old fox’s offer must be on the low side .
“Well, consider carefully . The price I gave you is fairer . ” Shen Hong nodded and said lightly .
“A’Jing . ” Zhao Mengxiang pulled Su Jing aside and whispered, “You are stupid, these people are buying a piece of wood for two thousand yuan and you aren’t selling it? It’s not the time to think anything and just sell it . ”
“Sister-in-law, this old man is too cunning and his price is likely to be much lower . ” Su Jing laughs . If the Sandalwood is only worth two thousand yuan then he will not hesitate to sell it . Otherwise, what will he do with it?
Su Jing decided to stay here for the time . He planned to invite someone to renovate the old house and build the fence a little higher so that people would not be able to watch the garbage in the yard . If possible, Su Jing also wants to buy all the surrounding land and expand the backyard . After all, he doesn’t know how much garbage will be dumped in the future . His backyard may not be enough .
But all of this requires money . He is without work and there are only more than 10,000 yuan saved in his card, plus the 15,000 yuan he earned today, he has at most 30,000 yuan, which is simply not enough .
“More than two thousand yuan for a piece of wood?” Zhao Mengxiang wondered if Su Jing was thinking too much .
Sister-in-law, I heard that there are many types of Sandalwood and some of them are as expensive as gold, so we don’t need to rush and have to make some things clear first . ”
“That’s okay . ” Zhao Mengxiang reluctantly agreed, but she was worried and afraid that Shen Hong will suddenly change his mind and he would no longer want to buy it .

“Have you thought about it?” Seeing Su Jing and Zhao Mengxiang finish their discussion, Shen Hong asked .
“We have and I think that the price is too low . Don’t start with a low price, Mr . Shen . Just give me a price with a little sincerity . If I’m satisfied, I can show you more Sandalwood . If the price is still low, that’s all . Su Jing smiled .
“Do you have other Sandalwood?” Shen Hong’s eyes narrowed and his heart wondered why the countrymen living in such a dilapidated house could cultivate such excellent dogs and cats and why there was a purple Sandalwood at their home .
“Of course, there are many more . ” Su Jing nodded .
“Well, I won’t beat around the bush with you . I’ll have to check the value of Sandalwood carefully . ” Shen Hong’s eyes are shining brightly . At first, he really wanted to pick up this piece at a lower price . In the antique world, picking up something valuable at a lower price not only saves money but also earns some face .
But seeing that Su Jing was not a fool and that there were more Sandalwoods, he dismissed the idea . He did not know how much Su Jing knew about Sandalwood . He was afraid that Su Jing would refuse to talk to him and hide all the other Sandalwoods . If he is not mistaken, these Sandalwoods are extremely rare and he should try to buy them all even if he had to spend a little more money .
He asked Su Jing to bring him a white paper, alcohol, water, and other items . First, he took a piece of wood and scratched it on the white paper . That left a purple-red scratch on it . Then he wiped the surface of the wood with a cotton ball filled with alcohol . The cotton ball soon turned orange . After a series of further tests, his eyes became brighter and brighter .
“To tell you the truth, this is red sandalwood and it’s also a very popular and rare red sandalwood full of Venus . ” Shen Hong watched Su Jing’s look, paused a little and then said, “As the saying goes, “Ten sandalwoods are empty . The largest purple sandalwood is only about 20 centimeters in diameter . This red sandalwood is very rare . If the sculptor was a good antique, it’s absolutely valuable . Unfortunately, this sculpture is not complimentary . Fortunately, the material is very big, the material is excellent enough to make many hand strings . Red Sandalwood Hand strings full of Venus are very popular now . Well, I’ll make an offer of 20,000 . ”

“Well…” Su Jing said nothing and Zhao Mengxiang was shocked and stunned . Fortunately, they didn’t agree to sell it at just two thousand yuan .
“Young man, I dare say it’s absolutely fair . You won’t get any better than this . ” Shen Hong laughed and scolded .
“Okay, I will sell it to you for 20,000 yuan . ” Su Jing’s face was calm but in his heart he was happy .
“Can you show me other Sandalwood?” Shen Hong was anxious .
“Wait a minute . ” Su Jing walks into the backyard and separates all the wood from the garbage dump . In fact, he has just seen Shen Hong’s identification methods . He has also learned some simple tricks, he can see that there is red sandalwood, However, he did not pick it out, but moved it together with other woods, hoping to let Shen Hong see it . After all, even if it is not red sandalwood, it may be other valuable wood .
“This tree root is very interesting, I will collect it first . ” Su Jing holding a tree root in his hand, it should be the root of the red sandalwood tree . The magic of it is that the root of the tree naturally forms a statue of the old road, although it is not a sculpture, it is natural .
Su Jing collected the roots and took a small basket of wood to the living room .
Shen Hong checked it carefully and threw all the other woods aside . Su Jing obviously thought a lot about it . They were just waste wood . Shen Hong was surprised to find that many of them were filled with Venus red sandalwood, possibly from the same tree .
After a short bargain, the basket of wood that was later moved out totaled 60,000, plus 20,000, from the previous one, the total came out at 80,000 .
“Young man, I spent so much money to buy your wood . Can you give me a kitten or a dog?” Shen Hong, the old fox, moved his mind and said carelessly .
“If you want, you can buy it . ” Su Jing smiled . For Su Jing, it is just a wild cat and wild dog . There are not many feelings . They can live better lives at the rich peoples home, but Su Jing will not give them away freely .
After a short discussion, Su Jing finally decided to sell a big yellow dog, a kitten and the mother cat for a total price of 80,000 .
Although the native dog is mighty, It has grown up and it will be more difficult to train . Loyalty, obedience, IQ and so on remain to be observed . Although kittens are beautiful, it is not clear whether they can maintain such good looks when they grow up . There is nothing special in the blood . This price is already high . Funny thing is, Shen Hong, the old fox, thinks that mother cat has a good gene, so he wants to buy her and a baby . But if he knew that the three kittens were not so beautiful when they were born and only changed yesterday, he may become depressed .
So red sandalwood and a dog and two cats were sold and Su Jing’s bank card was credited with 160,000 yuan . This is the first time in Su Jing’s life that he has so much money that it feels like a dream . Zhao Mengxiang was totally stunned and suddenly felt that after graduating from college, this little nephew had become amazing .
