Chapter 286: Human Calculations Are Not as Good as Heaven’s Calculations (Two Chapters in One)
Chapter 286 Man’s calculation is not as good as God’s calculation (two chapters combined into one)
"Twenty thousand."
Lin Li sold 20,000 pieces last time, and this time he thought it would be the same as last time, selling another 20,000 pieces.
Although there were 80,000 pieces on the mysterious island, he was afraid that Zhang Yuxi would not be able to take them all at once, so he decided to sell them in multiple batches.
Zhang Yuxi pondered for a few seconds and then said to Lin Li straight to the point, "Mr. Lin, I would like to ask you, you should have more than 20,000 pearls on hand now, right?"
Seeing Zhang Yuxi's direct question, Lin Li was stunned for a second. He thought for a moment, and then answered calmly, "Yes."
"Can you tell me how many pearls you have in total now? If it's not convenient to reveal it, that's okay..."
"Boss Zhang, aren't you just asking me how many pearls I have in my hand? It's not a big secret... I now have a total of 80,000 pearls in my hand."
"So many?" Zhang Yuxi originally thought that Lin Li would have at most 40,000 to 50,000 pearls in his hand, but she didn't expect that there were nearly twice as many pearls. She couldn't help but open her rosy mouth in surprise.
Lin Li saw Zhang Yuxi's surprised expression, smiled, and said nothing. He thought that if he wasn't afraid of disrupting the market price, he could go to the spiritual world to buy more pearls.
"Ahem." Zhang Yuxi coughed lightly and put away the gaffe expression that he accidentally showed due to surprise.
Then, she smiled and asked Lin Li, "Mr. Lin, you are selling 20,000 pearls this time. Are there any other customers who have reserved the remaining pearls?"
When Lin Li heard this, he immediately shook his head. After two previous transactions, he felt that Zhang Yuxi was quite open-minded and a good trading partner.
He had no intention of finding other channels to sell the pearls he had on hand.
Of course, this was somewhat distasteful to him, and it had something to do with finding other channels to sell the pearls, which would be troublesome.
Now hearing Zhang Yuxi ask this question, Lin Li directly expressed his thoughts.
"At present, I have no other sales target except you. I am selling pearls in batches instead of selling them all at once because I am afraid that you will have financial pressure.
If you can eat all my goods at once, I would be very willing to sell them all to you at once, which saves me trouble and does not have to sell you a batch of pearls every once in a while."
Zhang Yuxi didn't expect Lin Li to think like this. From what the other party said, it can be seen that she and the other party have established a good degree of trust, otherwise he would not be so open and talk about such things with her.
"Mr. Lin, thank you for considering me like this..." Zhang Yuxi first thanked Lin Li with a smile, and then said.
“Recently, the store’s business has been very good, and I have plenty of funds on hand.
This time, Mr. Lin, just sell the 80,000 pearls to me at once! It will also save you having to make a few more trips in the future."
"Huh?!!!" Lin Li didn't expect Zhang Yuxi to offer to eat the remaining pearls on hand. He was a little surprised that the other party actually had so much cash on hand.
But if you think about it seriously, "Jiabao Pearls" has a very good reputation in the jewelry industry in Rongcheng. It has cooperated with some large companies, and it is not unreasonable to have the cash on hand to buy 80,000 pearls in one go.
It's conceivable.
Now that the other party is willing to eat the remaining pearls he has on hand, Lin Li naturally has no reason not to agree.
"Okay." Lin Li nodded in agreement, and then he looked around Zhang Yuxi's office. There were 80,000 pearls packed into forty large bamboo baskets.
Although Zhang Yuxi's office is quite large, if they were to be taken out like this, there would be nowhere to put them, so naturally they couldn't take out all the big bamboo baskets directly.
Zhang Yuxi was very happy when she saw Lin Li agreeing to her request to acquire all of them.
Next, she can use this large number of excellent quality goods to speed up the strangulation of those colleagues who maliciously suppress her.
At this time, she saw Lin Li looking around her office. After thinking about it for a moment, she immediately understood the meaning of the other party's move based on the previous two transactions.
"Mr. Lin, let's go to the third floor later. The space on the third floor is larger. You can take out those pearls and put them there."
"Can."
Just when Lin Li and Zhang Yuxi were negotiating the business deal, clerk Xiaoyun went to the financial room to find Liu Lan, who happened to walk into the office from outside.
Zhang Yuxi saw Liu Lan arriving and stood up, "Okay, we can go to the third floor."
Later, Lin Li followed Zhang Yuxi and Liu Lan to the third floor of the jewelry store.
After the three of them arrived on the third floor, Lin Li saw a lot of goods placed on the third floor and immediately knew that this was the warehouse where the jewelry store stored goods.
Opening a room on the third floor, there was nothing in the room with an area of more than 100 square meters. Zhang Yuxi said, "Mr. Lin, these pearls are placed here."
Lin Li nodded, and then as he walked into the room, he took out the large bamboo baskets containing pearls from the mysterious island and placed them neatly on the ground.
Although Zhang Yuxi and Liu Lan had known for a long time that Mr. Lin had awakened the storage space ability, they were still shocked when they saw him again easily taking out dozens of large bamboo baskets filled with pearls.
A restless expression.
The storage space can hold dozens of large bamboo baskets. As you can imagine, the storage space is quite large.
Having such a large storage space is really enviable.
Under the shocked gazes of Zhang Yuxi and Liu Lan, Lin Li spent a few minutes taking out all the dozens of large bamboo baskets filled with pearls placed in the western area of the mysterious island and placing them neatly on the ground.
.
"Okay, all 80,000 pearls are here, please check and accept them." After taking out all the pearls from the mysterious island, Lin Li turned around and said to the surprised two people with a smile.
Liu Lan heard this and was about to step forward to use her powers to count the number of pearls Lin Li took out. As soon as she took a step, she was stopped by Zhang Yuxi who was standing next to her.
"There is no rush to do the counting. We will do it later when we have time. We have already traded several times, so we still have this bit of trust..." Zhang Yuxi smiled at Lin Li, then she turned to Liu Lan and said.
"Aunt Liu, please go back to the finance office now and transfer the payment for 80,000 pearls to Mr. Lin."
Liu Lan heard Zhang Yuxi's instructions, smiled and nodded, then turned and left, heading to the finance room to transfer money to Lin Li.
The purchase price of a pearl is 200 yuan, and 80,000 pearls is 16 million. This is not a small amount of money!
Lin Li saw Zhang Yuxi speak these words so grandly and put them into action. He became more and more satisfied with his big benefactor and felt that he could have a close friendship with this beautiful jewelry store owner.
Zhang Yuxi has been taking over the jewelry store business from her mother for several years, and has come into contact with a lot of all kinds of people.
Although she is only three years older than Lin Li, her ability to observe words and emotions is much better than Lin Li's.
At this time, she noticed that Lin Li looked at her slightly differently, and knew that her actions just now had further gained the trust of this business partner.
"Well, I think it's better for you to check your finances now. It would be bad if there are some omissions in the quantity of these pearls I gave you..." Lin Li suggested politely.
"It's okay, it doesn't matter if it's less..." Zhang Yuxi waved her hand and said nonchalantly.
Then, she greeted Lin Li to return to the office on the second floor, and the two of them sat on the sofa, drank tea, and waited for Liu Lan to complete the transfer.
Sixteen million was a large amount of money. After Liu Lan returned to the financial room, she worked on the computer for a while before transferring the money to Lin Li's bank account.
"Ding dong."
Lin Li and Zhang Yuxi were drinking tea and chatting when they suddenly heard a crisp sound from the cell phone in their pocket.
As soon as Lin Li heard it, he knew it was the notification sound for receiving a text message. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and checked the received text message.
Just as he thought, the text message he received was from the bank.
Sixteen million has arrived. Counting the money from selling pearls twice before, Lin Li's current money on his books has reached 24.12 million.
Looking at the huge amount of money on the books, although Lin Li was overjoyed, he was very reserved and only showed a slight smile, appearing very calm.
Zhang Yuxi, who was drinking tea with Lin Li, saw a smile on Lin Li's face after looking at his phone, and guessed that Liu Lan had already transferred the payment to him.
"Boss Zhang, I have received the money." Lin Li put away his phone and said to Zhang Yuxi.
Then, he stood up, said goodbye to the other party, and added another sentence at the same time.
"If you count the number of pearls incorrectly in the future and there is a shortage, you can call me and I will make up for you."
Since the other party could trust him so much and send money to him without counting the number of pearls, he couldn't be too stingy. Lin Li thought so, so he said this to Zhang Yuxi.
Zhang Yuxi nodded and smiled, and extended an invitation to Lin Li who was about to leave, "Mr. Lin, actually these excellent quality pearls you provided have helped me a lot. To express my gratitude, I will treat you to a meal tonight!"
Zhang Yuxi wanted to further deepen the relationship between the two parties and lay a stronger foundation for future cooperation, so she once again extended an invitation to dinner to this business partner with whom she was very satisfied.
Lin Li now also had a good impression of his generous financial backer. When he heard that the other party invited him to have dinner together, he wanted to agree immediately.
But suddenly he remembered that he had already made an appointment with Liu Jialin for a dinner, so he had to apologize and refuse.
"Boss Zhang, I'm sorry! I have already made a dinner appointment with someone else for tonight. Let's wait until next time! I'll treat you to dinner next time."
"..." Zhang Yuxi, who invited the same person of the opposite sex to dinner for the second time and was rejected again, felt slightly depressed and the smile on her face froze.
However, she quickly recovered because she saw Lin Li's expression was very real and knew that his words were not lies deliberately made to reject her.
I can only say that it was my bad luck. It happened that the other party had already made a dinner date with someone else.
"Okay, let's make an agreement. Next time you are free, you can treat me to dinner." Zhang Yuxi adjusted her attitude and said to Lin Li calmly and generously. At the same time, she stretched out her delicate hand.
"Yes." Lin Li nodded, stretched out his hand, and shook hands with the other person.
A moment later, Liu Lan came to Zhang Yuxi's office and saw that Zhang Yuxi was the only one in the office. At this moment, she was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the office, looking out the window.
Liu Lan came to Zhang Yuxi's side, followed her gaze and looked outside, and found that what Zhang Yuxi was looking at was Mr. Lin.
After completing the transaction, Lin Li said goodbye to Zhang Yuxi, walked out of the jewelry store, walked to the roadside, got into his van, started the car and left.
"This Mr. Lin has a bright personality and is a pretty good young man..." Liu Lan watched Lin Li's van disappearing at the corner of the street in the distance. After retracting her gaze, she looked at Zhang Yuxi beside her and said.
"Yes! He is a very polite and interesting person..." Zhang Yuxi said with a smile.
Recalling her several meetings with Lin Li, although the other person looked at her like other members of the opposite sex, his eyes were very clean. This was something she had never encountered before with a boy of her age.
Liu Lan was a little surprised when she heard Zhang Yuxi say that Lin Li was a very interesting person.
Because she knew Zhang Yuxi very well. Since she took over the jewelry store, she had come into contact with many members of the opposite sex, and none of them evaluated them as well as Lin Li.
It can be seen that Zhang Yuxi really has a very good impression of Mr. Lin.
"Okay, let's not talk about Mr. Lin. Aunt Liu, let's go to the third floor to count the batch of pearls now!" Zhang Yuxi turned her head and looked at Liu Lan and said.
"Um."
Afterwards, the two people left the office together and went to the room on the third floor filled with baskets of large bamboo baskets filled with flawless white pearls.
After arriving in this room filled with many pearls, Liu Lan used her awakened power to count the pearls, and finally found that the number was just right, which made her feel relieved.
After all, if there is a problem with the quantity of this batch of pearls, even if Zhang Yuxi doesn't care much, her status is almost equivalent to Zhang Yuxi's godmother's elder, but she will feel sorry for her for a long time...

The sky was getting dark, and the farmers who were weeding in the fields saw that it was getting dark soon. They immediately stopped their work for the day, packed up their farm tools and returned home.
Not far from the farmland, there was an old cabin. A figure stood by the window of the cabin, looking through the gaps in the curtains at the farmers leaving with farm tools on their backs.
At this time, on the road in the distance, a police car with the logo of the Superpower Administration passed quickly.
"Damn it, this is the fifth time today that I've seen a police car from the Superpower Administration pass by here."
Li Ying, an elite member of the Canglan Society's intelligence department, couldn't help but curse inwardly when he saw a police car with the Superpower Administration on it driving past the farmers returning home.
In the past, he chose this old cabin as an emergency landing place.
I just took a fancy to this old cabin, which is located in an area adjacent to the wilderness. There are very few people who come here, and even fewer investigators from the Superpower Administration come to this place.
What a pity! Man’s calculation is not as good as God’s, and the development of things always does not operate according to human will.
