Chapter 10

Liu Ben went to the bank again to get a new card. With the experience of selling gold last time, this time Liu Ben went straight to the Shengshi Jewelry Store and found Zhu Gan. After Zhu Gan learned of Liu Ben's intentions, he invited him to the same room as before and called in Old Kang.

"Mr. Liu, I wonder how much goods you have this time."

"More than last time, a full 20 kg."

"Oh? It seems Mr. Liu has quite the ability," Zhu Gan said happily. With 20 kg of gold, he could make at least 200,000 to 300,000 yuan.

"Let's have Old Kang check the goods first," Liu Ben said as he took the gold out of his bag and placed it on the table.

Old Kang didn't say much and started inspecting it seriously.

"Boss Zhu, I want to sell a large amount of gold in your store," Liu Ben said, staring intently at Zhu Gan.

"How much?"

"More than you can imagine."

"That's great, I'd be more than happy to," Zhu Gan was shocked. This unassuming young man had such great ability; truly, one cannot judge a person by their appearance.

"However, if the amount of gold is too large, the price will also drop," Zhu Gan said hesitantly.

"That's not a problem, I understand," Liu Ben replied. He knew that a large amount of gold entering the market would cause fluctuations in the gold price.

"Since that's the case, everything is fine. Mr. Liu, you can rest assured," Zhu Gan smiled.

"Alright, I'll bring 200 kg of gold in a few days. Be ready to take it."

Just as they finished their discussion, Old Kang's appraisal was complete, confirming it was indeed gold.

"Still the same price as last time, 274 yuan per gram. 20 kg of gold totals 5,480,000 yuan," Zhu Gan quickly calculated.

"Still the same as before, 5 million yuan by transfer, 480,000 yuan in cash," Liu Ben then gave Zhu Gan the new bank account number.

After the transfer was successful, Liu Ben left Shengshi Jewelry with 480,000 yuan in cash. He still owed Kipra 1 ton of salt, so he spent the whole day collecting 2 tons of salt from various supermarkets for 6,000 yuan. Back at home, he prepared for his second transaction with Kipra.

He closed the doors and windows, checked the room to ensure there were no abnormalities, and then connected a video call with Kipra.

"Mr. Liu, what do you need? Did you prepare the salt so quickly?"

"Yes, Mr. Kipra, I have prepared 1 ton of salt, and I have an extra ton."

"Really? That's great. I'll prepare the gold mine for you right away. Please wait a moment," Kipra said excitedly.

"Please let me finish, Mr. Kipra. Our ability to absorb gold is limited. This time, I don't want gold," Liu Ben said apologetically.

"If not gold, what do you want?" Kipra frowned.

"Is there anything that can improve physical fitness and slow down aging?" Liu Ben asked eagerly.

"Yes, the elven divine water. Just one drop can improve physical fitness, make one's appearance youthful and prevent aging. Most importantly, it can extend the user's life by 10 years."

"Great, I'll take it. One ton of salt for 1 kg of divine water," Liu Ben said happily. His parents were old and often worked in the fields, their bodies already in poor condition. With the elven divine water, he could improve their physical fitness. Now that he had money, he could let them enjoy a few more years of happiness.

"You might as well kill me. Do you know what elven divine water is? It is extremely rare, collected from elf trees that have grown for ten thousand years. The entire elven race produces less than 100 drops per year. You want 1 kg from me?" Kipra said helplessly.

"So few? How much can you offer?" Liu Ben asked in surprise.

"For 1 ton of salt, I can give you at most 2 drops of elven divine water," Kipra said, his eyes twinkling.

"Two drops is a bit too little. Give me one more drop. One ton of salt for 3 drops of elven divine water," Liu Ben frowned.

"Alright, 3 drops for 3 drops. When do you want to make the transaction?" Kipra nodded after some consideration.

After Kipra agreed, they began the transaction. Liu Ben sent 2 tons of salt to Kipra, and Kipra sent a transparent glass bottle with 3 drops of emerald-green liquid, which glowed softly.

"By the way, do you have anything that can increase mental power?" Kipra asked just before Liu Ben hung up the video call.

"There is something that can increase mental power, but I'm not sure if it works. It's quite difficult to obtain. I'll contact you once I get it," Liu Ben thought for a moment and replied.

"Alright, I'll wait for your good news," Kipra said.

After that, they hung up the video call.

Holding the bottle of elven divine water, Liu Ben looked at the emerald-green liquid and smiled happily. He should go back to see his parents and give them some money. They wouldn't have to work the land anymore and could enjoy a good life. It was already noon, so Liu Ben called Xu Yaqi to invite her out for lunch and to look at cars in the afternoon. Running around all day without a car was really inconvenient.

Liu Ben took a taxi to Xu Yaqi's house, picked her up, and they went straight to a well-known Western restaurant in S City. Liu Ben rarely had the chance to taste authentic steak. He wasn't sure if it was his lack of taste, but the high-quality steak didn't seem as good as the grilled meat from his hometown.

"Yaqi, I want to buy a car. Do you have any friends who know about this?" Liu Ben asked, putting a piece of beef in his mouth and chewing.

"I don't have any friends who know about cars. What brand are you thinking of?" Xu Yaqi asked.

"It doesn't matter, around 1 million yuan would be fine," Liu Ben replied.

"That's easy. I've heard that Audi is good, with excellent performance," Xu Yaqi smiled.

"Alright, let's go with your suggestion," Liu Ben smiled.

After leaving the restaurant, they went straight to the Audi 4S store.

When they entered the 4S store, a few salespeople who were chatting together saw them and smiled, but when they saw Liu Ben's simple attire and Xu Yaqi's ordinary clothes, they turned back to chat.

Liu Ben noticed their expressions, frowned, and was about to leave when a young voice called out.

"Sir, would you like to look at some cars?" A girl with a round face and big eyes asked them.

"Yes, I want to buy a car, around 1 million yuan," Liu Ben replied.

"Please follow me," the girl said.

The other salespeople whispered to each other.

"Does he look like he can afford a 1 million yuan car? Minmin is probably wasting her time."

"Exactly, he looks like he's just showing off with his girlfriend. Girls these days are so easy to fool."

"A 1 million yuan car? With his salary, he might not even be able to afford a tire in a year."

They didn't realize that Liu Ben could hear them, as his hearing was ten times better than an average person's. He smiled but didn't react. He thought to himself, "Just wait, you'll regret it."
