Chapter 8 Work

  Toyota soon drove out of the Third Ring Road and gradually entered the suburbs. Lin Luo felt that she really couldnt think of what kind of job was suitable for this desolate place where birds didnt lay eggs.

  Baojia stopped at a warehouse-like place with overgrown weeds in front of the door and peeling paint. Except for the tire tracks on the muddy ground in front of the gate, which proved that various vehicles frequently entered and exited here, there was only this one building standing alone in the surrounding desolation, which was indeed eerie.

  "Baojia, although I dont mind being a worker on the assembly line, but this place is too desolate, can we get paid on time?" Lin Luoran summoned up her courage to express her opinion.

  Baojia wiped the tomato juice from her mouth and raised an eyebrow at her: "What did you say?"

  Lin Luo reluctantly shrunk his neck, the wild ginseng in the space still needs some time to grow, Bao Jia has found a job, so lets do it first, he is still picky, now it seems that there are only 1300 left...

  Two people got out of the car and entered the door. Lin Luoran only then discovered that this yard was quite big. Behind the red lacquered gate, there were many cars parked, including some expensive ones like Benz and BMW, as well as some unknown brands with just a logo on them. Lin Luoran found them familiar but couldnt recall their names... Anyway, they must be very pricey!

  Now those well-dressed car owners are all surrounding a large truck, their faces red with excitement as they fight over some stones that look different on the surface.

  "What are those people doing around a pile of stones?" Lin Luoran curiously asked Baojia.

  Bao Jia pulled her around the crowd and trucks, walking towards the warehouse, explaining as they walked: "Youve never eaten pork or seen a pig run? TV dramas have all been performed rottenly, those ugly stones are jade rough stones, a group of people are gambling on stones!"

  Lin Luoran was both curious and surprised, whispering: "Theres still a gambling den in Rong City? I thought they were all in Yunnan and Myanmar?"

  "Where there are people, there is a market; where there is a market, there is demand. Whats strange about that?" Baojia glanced at her and explained in a few words.

  Lin Luo Ran wanted to ask more, but Bao Jia made a "shh" gesture: "Lets focus on work for now... earlier I was worried, but looking at you now, its definitely fine."

  He looked at Lin Luo Ran with a few glances, as if he was very satisfied with her appearance.

  Bao Jia pulled her into the warehouse, and Lin Luo Ran only then discovered that there were machines roaring here, seemingly an operating workshop.

  Bao Jia walked around the venue and found the person she was looking for ——

  There were several cutting machines operating in the workshop, cutting through raw stones, filling the air with dust. A man in his thirties, wearing glasses with golden frames, had hair covered in dust, and was gazing at a stone under one of the cutting machines with some concern.

  "Brother Liu!" Baojia raised his voice and waved his hand repeatedly.

  Liu Chao wiped the dust off his glasses and saw that it was Baojia, accompanied by an unfamiliar woman. Her temperament was not bad, but she looked too young, probably only in her early twenties, and didnt look like Baojia at all.

  Hes a businessman, he wouldnt give anyone an inch unless he had the upper hand. He smiled warmly: "Two beautiful ladies have arrived, this stone should at least see some green now? Bao Jia, who is this?"

  Bao Jia also stretched his head and was concerned about the situation under the cutting machine.

  "This is my good friend, Lin Luoran! Luoran, this is Liu Zhao, your future boss!"

  Lin Luoran smiled awkwardly, she didnt even know what job Baojia was going to introduce her to, and Liu Zhen hadnt said for sure that he had to use her. Now Baojia introduced him as the boss, it seemed like they were familiar with each other. This little girl, when did she get to know such a big shot? It seemed like she needed to be interrogated.

  Lin Luorans thoughts were all in her mind. When she heard Bao Jia introduce herself, she still took the initiative to stretch out her hand and greet him: "Mr. Liu, Im Lin Luoran, nice to meet you."

  He easily dispelled the awkwardness, and Liu Zhens gaze didnt linger on Lin Luoran for too long. Instead, he nodded and said, "Miss Lin, lets talk about work later. First, take a look at this stone."

  Lin Luoran smiled and nodded, Bao Jia had already been there, making a sound: "Liu Dashi, this is good stuff, if it doesnt come out green, its too unlucky, how much did you make from this?"

  Liu Zhaosu smiled bitterly: "The previous few blocks that were cut all collapsed, fortunately, I got a few blocks of clear material from Lao Mians territory earlier, otherwise there would be no rice to cook!"

  Lin Luoran had never seen jade gambling in person, but with the skyrocketing prices of jade over the past two years, ordinary citizens and TV viewers also knew what "jade gambling" meant. Now that he heard this, Liu Zhen was also a jeweler, Lin Luoran felt that the job Bao Jia found for him seemed to have many variables...

  She had just thought of this when Baojias voice came over with some delight: "Were in the green, looks like we really did bring good luck!"

  Lin Luoran also turned her head to look, the cutting worker was pouring water into the cut stone material that had been cut open about a third of the way. After several handfuls of clear water went in, the green texture came out, and even Lin Luoran, an outsider, could see that this green looked very comfortable.

  Liu Zhao took a look and smiled: "This piece has risen, wait until the green is resolved to eat at a deeper point, and you can also earn some money back from the previous few pieces of material."

  There was a piece of stone material as big as half a table, and it came out with a cutting surface as large as a sea bowl. Liu Zheng said that the price had risen, and this line of gambling on stones really made wealth and nobility easy to come by.

  Liu Zhaopian saw that things were going well, so he called out to the workers to load the stone materials onto the truck and prepare to head back to his own place to continue work. After finishing up, he handed Lin Luoran a business card: "I dont know if Miss Lin would be willing to come work at my company?"

  The business card reads "Zhen Bao Xuan" Liu Zhen, and a string of digits that make up the phone number. There is no title at all.

  This treasure pavilion Lin Luo Ran actually has an impression, and there are several branches in Rong City. Whether its the scale of the store or the things sold, they have a bit of a rivalry with Fumanlou. This information was only noticed by Lin Luo Ran after Li Anping entered Fumanlou.

  "Mr. Liu, neither Baojia nor I said what we want to do, do you think Im suitable?" Although he didnt want to be in the same industry as Li Anping, with two obvious camps, there shouldnt be any interaction, and it was Baojias intention, Lin Luoran couldnt refuse, and must take the initiative to strive for it.

  Liu Zhaixiao smiled and said: "Baojia said that you will be doing jewelry sales, what do you think?"

  Jewelry sales, go sell those sparkling jewels yourself? Theres no woman who doesnt love jewelry, Lin Luoran was somewhat moved.

  Bao Jia pushed her forward, "With someone like you, just hang some jewelry on your body and its advertising, youll definitely be fine."

  Lin Luoran was encouraged by Baojia, and seeing Liu Zhaoyue waiting for her answer, she thought for a moment before saying affirmatively: "I have no experience, but Ill work hard to learn, Mr. Liu, dont worry."

  Its clear that Liu Zhaohui is quite particular about the person he introduced to Baojia, and after seeing her appearance, he was also quite satisfied. When he heard her say it was good, everyone was naturally delighted.

  He was about to hand something over to Lin Luo Ran when a female voice came from the entrance of the workshop, her tone somewhat shrill, and as soon as she spoke, she directly pointed at Bao Jia.

  "Qin Baojia, arent you openly collaborating with the enemy?! Youve got quite a nerve!"
