Chapter 158: Rich People Have Many Rules
Encouraged by Lu Yiming's words, Lin Tuo, who dreamed of becoming rich, suddenly fell into the fantasy of getting rich quickly and couldn't extricate himself. He even forgot that Lu Yiming was his hostage and instead regarded him as a guiding light on the road to wealth.
"Think about it, this is really too much, big brother, do you have any ideas?"
Lin Tuo's eyes were shining, and he couldn't help but imagine in his mind what kind of life he would live after getting two million.
When going out shopping, I buy two bowls of sweet soup at a time, drink one bowl and pour one bowl out!
So arrogant!
"Of course there is a way. If you listen to me, I can give you two million. Do you know who I am?"
Lin Tuo shook his head and said, "I don't know, millionaire?"
Lu Yiming sneered: "Millions? I'm a billionaire!"
"real?"
The moment Lin Tuo heard the word "billionaire", his brain froze. After all, for him, this class of people was something he found difficult to understand.
Lu Yiming looked at him calmly: "I am in your hands now, why would I lie to you? If I don't have money, why did you kidnap me?"
Lin Tuo nodded woodenly: "That's right."
Just at this moment, footsteps were heard outside and Lin Xian ran back with barbecued pork rice.
"Damn, I'm so tired."
He cursed and threw a bowl of barbecued pork rice at Lu Yiming's feet, and said impatiently: "Here, eat it."
Lu Yiming immediately started to scold: "Do you think I'm an elephant? I can't eat with my trunk! Hurry up and feed me."
"You wish. If you don't want to eat it, forget it."
Lin Xiancai didn't care about that and handed a bowl of barbecued pork rice to Lin Tuo: "Here, this is yours. This bowl of braised pork rice costs ten yuan, it's damn expensive."
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Lu Yiming quickly shouted, “If you don’t feed me, I’ll starve to death and you won’t get paid.”
"this……"
Lin Tuo glared at Lu Yiming and said loudly: "Why are you yelling? I'll feed you when I finish eating."
"That's more like it."
Lu Yiming finally calmed down, his eyes were deep, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Lin Xian and Lin Tuo were squatting outside eating barbecued pork rice.
“Damn, it’s delicious.”
“It smells good.”
"After I finish this job, I can earn 100,000 yuan, and I can buy lots of braised pork rice." Lin Xian said with anticipation.
For him, being able to drink big bowls of wine and eat big bites of meat is already the best life.
But Lin Tuo listened and said perfunctorily: "Yes, yes."
If he could get 100,000 yuan in the past, he would probably be happier than Lin Xian. However, after being encouraged by Lu Yiming, deep down in his heart, he no longer cares about these 100,000 or 80,000 yuan. If he was going to get anything, he would rather take 2 million!
When I become a millionaire, every time I order barbecued pork rice, I will buy two bowls and eat one and pour the other!
After they finished their meal, Lin Tuo came over to feed Lu Yiming.
After finishing the last bite, Lu Yiming said, "Today's braised pork rice is a bit salty. I'm thirsty."
Lin Xian handed over a bottle of mineral water, opened the lid and put it directly into Lu Yiming's mouth, saying, "Drink it."
Lu Yiming took a sip and then sprayed it all over Lin Xian.
"What the hell is this?"
Lin Xian cursed loudly, "Fuck you!" and said with a bad face, "Are you kidding me? I can't even afford to buy a bottle of mineral water that costs one dollar!"
Lu Yiming was extremely disgusted: "I am used to drinking a cup of coffee after dinner, go buy it for me."
Lin Xian looked Lu Yiming up and down, and cursed unhappily: "Who the hell do you think you are? You are my slave now! It's good enough that I buy you food, but you still have so many demands? It's dark outside, and I'm buying you coffee? Bullshit!"
Lu Yiming raised the red sandalwood bracelet on his left hand and said to Lin Tuo: "This is my bracelet. It is worth at least 50,000 or 60,000 yuan in any pawn shop. Go buy me a cup of coffee and it will be yours."
This bracelet was one of the many gifts given by Standard Chartered Bank. The workmanship was very exquisite. Lu Yiming thought it was quite pleasing to the eye, so he put it on his hand without paying much attention to it.
Lin Xian took off the bracelet and said suspiciously, "A few wooden beads for 50,000? Do you think I'm an idiot?"
Lin Tuo snatched the bracelet and said enthusiastically: "If you don't go, I will."
"Then go ahead. Don't blame me for not warning you if you get cheated later."
Both of them were peasants who had never seen the world, so they naturally couldn't imagine that a few wooden beads could be sold for tens of thousands. However, Lin Tuo had just been lectured by Lu Yiming, and now all he could think of was "two million", so he chose to believe Lu Yiming.
Lin Tuo drove to the city and saw neon lights flashing everywhere. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "The life of rich people is so damn good. When I get two million, I will live a carefree life too."
He came to a pawn shop and put the bracelet on the counter: "See how much this is worth."
He was a little excited.
After all, the necklace belongs to him now, and how much it can be sold for is what he cares most about now.
Anyone who can open a pawn shop has some knowledge. The boss could tell that this string of coins was extraordinary at a glance.
He couldn't help but mutter, "What a good thing, made of red sandalwood. The raw materials for this thing are extinct in China."
Then, he pretended to be nonchalant and coldly offered Lin Tuo a price: "I'll give you thirty thousand."
"How many?"
When Lin Tuo heard this, he couldn't help but yell.
Just now Lu Yiming said that this thing was worth 50,000, but Lin Tuo didn't take it seriously, thinking that Lu Yiming was inevitably exaggerating. But now the pawnshop people said 30,000, that is real hard cash!
The man from the pawnshop couldn't help but feel a little sorry when he saw Lin Tuo so excited. He thought he could cheat a sucker, but he didn't expect that the other party was actually an expert .
"Fifty thousand, at most fifty thousand, no more. If you want more, go sell it somewhere else."
Lin Tuo's eyes widened, he swallowed hard, gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay, then fifty thousand!"
The pawnbroker then took the wooden skewer away with a smile on his face, and then took out five bundles of 100-yuan bills, pushed them out from the cabinet, and said, "Here you go."
Lin Tuo took the money with trembling body, counted it several times with his fingers wet with saliva, and after confirming the amount, he took off his coat, put away his wallet, and left the pawnshop looking around.
At this point, Lin Tuo finally believed that Lu Yiming was an absolute tycoon.
Just to have a cup of coffee, he spent fifty or sixty thousand!
He felt that if it were him, let alone 50 or 60 thousand, even if he spent 50 or 60 thousand on a cup of coffee, he would be heartbroken for several days.
He had never felt the disparity of this world as deeply as he did today.
At the same time, he was even more looking forward to the two million that Lu Yiming mentioned.
He bought some coffee and some snacks before returning to the beach.
He threw the snacks to Lin Xian and said casually, "This is for you."
Then, she put the coffee close to Lu Yiming's mouth with a flattering look on her face and said carefully: "Come, I'll feed you coffee, be careful of the heat."
