Chapter 113: Conflict

  A very small and difficult to identify cross-grain pattern was discovered, which instantly devalued this piece of ebony. Originally, due to the loose grain of the wood, this material wouldn't have been worth much anyway, but with the added presence of a cross-grain pattern, Chu Chen would never want it no matter what.

  Abandoning the black iron sand, only two pieces of woolen cloth were left. Chu Chen thought for a while and carefully observed the moldy cotton cloth again, but finally decided to use his special ability on the iron sand skin.

  He did this for two reasons: first, the iron sand skin was more valuable; second, he thought that the piece of moldy tofu was slightly off-center and might not affect the jade meat inside.

  Of course, the first two reasons are not the most critical. Just now, Chu Chen carefully observed that this piece of moss looks like it's not a complete piece, and it feels like it's gathered bit by bit. This situation made him wonder if this wasn't actually a real moss flower, but rather a mutated jojoba pine flower?

  After considering various factors, Chu Chen decided to use the Zhuye Pi's woolen material as his assessment this time. As for the other piece of Tie Sha Pi's material, he used it with his special ability without hesitation, and the result also made him extremely happy.

  Chu Chen took two pieces of carefully selected wool and came to the door.

  At this time, Hou Yuanming had also selected a piece of semi-finished wool fabric. The performance of this wool fabric was very good, and from the cut window, the green was very regular, the water quality was not bad, it could reach the ice glutinous rice type, and it was a medium-sized wool fabric, the price was opened to 13 million.

  Before long, Zhang Yanbin also picked out a piece of semi-fine wool that was not small in size. His piece of wool performed even better than Hou Yuanming's, with the water absorption reaching ice-like levels, and the price reached 24 million.

  When the boss saw that three people had chosen woolen goods, he was overjoyed and led everyone to the checkout counter.

  After weighing in batches, it was calculated that the total value of all wool products reached 10.5 million, which was still a discounted price given by the boss to Chu Chen and others.

  Because the value was so high, Zhang Yanbin couldn't open a check for over 10 million, and since credit cards couldn't be used at Mr. Yu's place, after packing and loading the goods onto a truck, Mr. Yu followed them to a nearby bank to transfer the funds.

  In the bank, Chu Chen and others also paid Ma San a labor fee in proportion, which is also the rule of this line. The liner usually collects a certain commission according to the transaction amount.

  Today, this transaction of over 10 million has brought Ma San a lot of benefits from Chu Chen and others. Moreover, when he returns, Old Boss Yu will also give him a good profit-sharing fee. Today, he can be said to have made a fortune, all of which can be seen from the smile on his face.

  After Lao Ban and Ma San left, Chu Chen asked: "What do we do next? Are we going to take all these woolen goods back to Teng Chong?"

  "How is that possible!" Zhang Yanbin laughed and said: "This place isn't without workshops like Old Qian's, let's go, we'll first take the materials to my friend's place, I'm starving to death."

  When Zhang Yanbin said that, everyone felt their stomachs were growling too. As the old saying goes, people are made of iron and food is steel, if you don't eat for a meal, you'll be starving, Chu Chen and the others have been selecting wool fabrics from over 10 o'clock until now, it's already almost 4 o'clock, they haven't had lunch yet, everyone thinks it's normal to feel hungry.

  The jade processing plant that Zhang Yanbin said was not too far away, and the car arrived in 15 minutes.

  As soon as everyone got off the car, a man in his mid-30s came up to greet them, and he and Zhang Yanbin started calling each other "brother" and "younger brother", it seemed that the two were very familiar with each other. This also made Chu Chen sigh at how extensive Zhang Yanbin's social connections were.

  Next, they introduced each other, and Chu Chen also learned that the man's name was Shen Feng. Because he was older, Chu Chen followed Zhang Yanbin in calling him "Shen Ge". During their casual conversation, Shen Feng's subordinates had already unloaded everyone's wool from the truck and moved it all to the processing workshop.

  Shen Feng's jade workshop, in terms of layout, is not much different from Teng Chong's family, it's just a bit smaller. Because they still need to find a place to settle down, Chu Chen and the others didn't stay in the workshop for long, they just placed some valuable materials and then bid farewell to Shen Feng.

  Next, everyone followed Zhang Yanbin to an inn and opened a room. After putting away their luggage, they were so hungry that they couldn't care about anything else, so they found a restaurant that looked decent and went in.

  After entering, everyone originally wanted a private room, but this restaurant's private rooms only had three, two of which were currently occupied by others, and the air conditioner in the other one was broken. It was now midsummer, so a private room without an air conditioner would be like a sardine can, so everyone could only settle for seats in the main hall.

  Although there were only a few fans blowing in the hall, everyone was hungry now and the dishes at this restaurant tasted pretty good. Later on, everyone focused on eating and didn't care about anything else.

  However, Chu Chen and others did not know that at the time when they were eating happily, in one of the private rooms, seven young people who were a bit drunk and had a playful personality noticed them.

  "I'm telling you, brothers, that chick is absolutely stunning! I've never seen anyone as beautiful as her in my entire life!" The speaker was the same ** mentioned by Ma San earlier.

  At this time, a tall and thin man standing at the door ran back to the table, drooling and said: "Ah, second brother is right, that girl's name is really... what was it... oh, yes, she's truly as beautiful as an angel, if I can sleep with her for one night, this life will be worth it."

  Several others heard the tall and thin one say this, and they all ran to the door to take a look. One of them, who looked particularly lewd, said with a sly smile: "Heh heh, that chick is indeed pretty, but I like the one next to her, she's got some meat on her bones, it'd be more comfortable to touch."

  "I actually like both, if I can have both, that would be awesome!"

  "Lao Wu, give up, are you satisfied with those two chicks?"

  "Third brother, don't laugh at others for their misfortune, you're not much better off yourself..."

  "If I had to say, among us, Big Brother is the most formidable. With Big Brother's skills, he can make them go crazy!"

  "Haha......"

  Because of the hot weather, plus there was no air conditioning in the hall, so Chu Xuan and others quickly finished their meal and prepared to leave. However, when Chu Xuan went to pay the bill, those seven people also walked out from inside the private room, and the leader even deliberately chose to walk past Chu Xuan's table.

  The weather was hot, and the heat from eating made Chu Yulan's face red and flushed, looking especially alluring. When the tall and thin man walked by earlier, he couldn't help but stare blankly and blurted out: "This beautiful lady, let's be friends!"

  Zhang Yanbin originally had a crush on Chu Yulan, but because of her family background, he gave up the idea of pursuing her. However, he couldn't tolerate this kind of disrespect towards Chu Yulan, so he stood up and scolded: "Who the hell are you? You look like a turtle, son of a bitch, and you dare to come out and make a fool of yourself?"

  "Who the hell are you cursing?" This group of people were already drunk, and when they saw Zhang Yanbin scolding, one of them immediately walked up to Zhang Yanbin and pushed him.

  Zhang Yanbin was not a timid person to begin with, and he had a history of fighting in school. Adding to that the fact that he had just hastily drunk some beer earlier, his intoxication combined with his fiery temper caused him not only to push the man, but also to grab a nearby beer bottle and smash it at the man's head.

  "Damn your mom!"

  Bang!

  A beer bottle smashed on that man's head, and immediately the man's head was bleeding.

  "Go ahead, he!"

  How could they just let it go, picking up a stool or something and preparing to rush over and beat Zhang Yanbin.

  Just when everyone thought Zhang Yanbin was going to be at a disadvantage, Chu Chen happened to rush over in a hurry and kicked one of them.

  This powerful kick not only sent the man flying four or five meters away, but also brought down two others behind him, stunning the entire group.

  At this moment, a middle-aged man with a long scar on his face rushed out from behind and shouted loudly: "I'm saying to you brothers, do you want to ruin my scene? Can't you give me some face and stop here?"

  This man seemed to have a reputation in the circle, and as soon as he appeared, he shocked the whole scene, causing those few people to lose their momentum immediately. The leader of them forced a smile at the middle-aged man and pointed at Zhang Yanbin, saying: "Dragon brother, it's not that I want to cause trouble, but that kid made the first move!"

  Zhang Yanbin immediately stopped and angrily said: "Damn it, you guys are looking for trouble. Would I hit that kid?"

  "Alright, let's calm down, brothers. This meal is on me. Waiter, has this table been settled? If so, come and refund it." The middle-aged man said as he gently pushed Zhang Yanbin back to his original position.

  Seeing this situation, the leader also didn't say anything else, and led his subordinates out of the door, and the situation seemed to calm down.

  However, Chu Chen saw the chill in the eyes of the leader and immediately had a bad premonition. So he didn't wait for the waiter to return the money and said to the others: "Let's hurry up and leave, I'm afraid those people will come back to take revenge on us!"

  Wen Yuting had already been frightened by the previous scene, and she hastily said: "Yes, let's...let's hurry up and leave, those people aren't good people, something unexpected might happen in a moment."

  Everyone thought so too. After all, this wasn't their home turf. So after exchanging greetings with the middle-aged man, the seven of them walked out of the store together.

  But just a few steps out of the store, Zhang Yanbin suddenly shouted: "Damn it!"

  Everyone looked up and saw about twenty-five or six robust young men rushing out of a billiard room on the opposite side, with the leaders being the same ones who had clashed with them in the restaurant earlier.
