House Management

Chapter 799 Wood King
Under the unanimous request of the little girl, Zhang Yu and Yang Ying were also quite helpless, so they agreed with half-push and half-heartedly.

In fact, when she saw Zhang Yu and Fang Tong just now, Yang Ying couldn't stand it anymore. They were all family anyway, so they should be awkward.

After Yang Ying was dealt with, it was dawn, and Zhang Yu had to go to Bao Jiayin's place to gather, so he asked the little girl for leave again.

The little girl was beautiful now, although she didn't want Zhang Yu to leave, but she also knew that Zhang Yu was going to deal with business, so she nodded in agreement and asked Zhang Yu to go back early.

Zhang Yu greeted the driver and drove away in a Mercedes.After eating breakfast on the road, it was almost 08:30 when we arrived at Xianghai Garden.

Bao Jiayin, Zhan Shuaifei, Zhan Shuaiteng, and Xu Xiaomin were waiting downstairs. When they met, the three greeted in unison, "Really Zhang!"

Zhang Yu said politely: "It's called that in Taoist temples, but don't call it that outside. Especially when you go to gamble, don't call it that."

"No problem." "No problem.".
The gambling place is in Nanhai Town, Zhennan District, and it takes more than three hours to drive there. Zhang Yu and Bao Jiayin take the same car, and the three of Zhan's family take the same car.

It was already twelve noon when we came to the town.

The climate in Nanhai Town is particularly good, and it seems to be very rich, much more than Guangming Town.

The hotels and restaurants in the town are quite large, and there are many buildings, which are no less than those in the urban area.

They found a hotel first, prepared to eat before going to the forest farm.

Park the car in the parking lot and enter the hotel together.In the hotel lobby, there were several people chatting, and one of them said: "The Qiao family's vision is really poisonous, and they have won another thunderbolt peach tree. I don't know, what is that in his family?" His eyesight is too accurate."

"Really?" Someone asked immediately.

"That can be false. Just two days ago, it rained in the town, and a lightning struck a peach tree, which happened to be raised here by the Qiao family. The tree is not dead yet. Today, everyone from the Qiao family has arrived. Cut the wood and transport it away," said the previous man.

"It's not new. The Qiao family is known as the King of Wood. There's nothing new about betting on lightning and splitting wood." Another person said.

Hearing their conversation, Zhang Yu was taken aback for a moment. He said that Zhan Shuaifei gambled on wood before, but the bet was on whether the wood would be rotten.

He became curious and wanted to ask, but before he could pass by, Zhan Shuiteng greeted him, "Brother Xiong, did you guys come early?"

"Shuaiteng, you guys are here too." A burly man in his 40s grinned and shouted.

"How can we not come today. What are you talking about?" Zhan Shuiteng walked over while talking.

Zhang Yu and the others also followed. Zhan Shuaifei and Xu Xiaomin were no strangers to them and greeted each other.

The introductions to Zhang Yu and Bao Jiayin are friends who have just entered the industry, so come and have a look.

Afterwards, the man named Xiong Zhenyue said: "We just gambled on a tree that was struck by lightning at Qiao's house, and now it happened again."

"This Qiao family is really powerful." Zhan Shuaifei immediately said enviously.

"He has a lot of capital and good vision. We can't envy this kind of thing. How about he can be the king of wood." Although Xiong Zhenyue said so, he couldn't hide his envy.

Zhang Yu asked curiously: "How do you bet on Thunderbolt? I just heard from Zhan Shuaifei that the bet was on whether the timber was not good enough. Why are you still playing Thunderbolt now?"

No need for others to answer, Zhan Shuaifei said: "Lightning splitting wood is not something ordinary people can gamble on. The price of trees is not to mention expensive, and there is a special backlog of funds. This thunder can be split as soon as it is said. Once it cannot be split, the loss But it's big."

"Then how do you gamble?" Zhang Yu asked again.

"The gambling method is very simple, that is, each tree generally has a price tag. For example, some trees on the periphery are cheaper, so it is a normal gambling. The farther you go to the top of the mountain, the more expensive the price is. Generally speaking, the trees on the top of the mountain are the most expensive. Expensive, because the high terrain is easy to be struck by lightning. This kind of tree needs to be raised, and if it is struck by lightning one day, it will make a lot of money. But then again, once the tree is not struck by lightning, the money will be It’s stuck there. If it’s cut off directly, the price is right there, no matter whether you’re willing or not, you’ll definitely lose money.” Zhan Shuaifei said solemnly.

After hearing this, Zhang Yu also understood what was going on.

Thunder splitting wood is a good thing, everyone knows it, and it is naturally valuable.But the problem is that being struck by lightning doesn't mean that you can get hit by it, the probability is so low.

Although Zhang Yu is proficient in the technique of lightning and can also attract lightning, but the lightning splitting wood does not mean that it will work just by chopping just one tree.The most basic condition is to ensure that the tree will not die after the lightning strikes it.

Everyone came to eat, and they went to the forest farm after eating. Zhang Yu simply played host and invited everyone to eat together.During the dinner, he had to inquire more about gambling wood, especially the wood king.

In Zhan Shuaifei's words, the wood king Qiao's family is definitely the leading timber tycoon in China.The industry involves the wholesale and retail of raw materials and the wholesale and retail of finished products.

Every year, the Qiao family will send people to participate in all the forest farms that gamble on wood at home and abroad.The vision is accurate, far better than everyone else.Therefore, it is called the king of wood.

In the afternoon, they had to gamble on wood. They didn't drink, and after a meal, they went to the forest farm together.

The forest farm is a big mountain on the outskirts of the town, with rolling hills and overgrown green trees.There are big trees and small trees that were planted later. The surrounding area of ​​the mountain is surrounded by patrols, so as not to let someone go up the mountain and cut it down.

When everyone came to the mountain pass, there were many cars parked around. After they got out of the car, they walked in together.

During the meal before, Zhan Shuaifei introduced that the forest farm is divided into more than ten areas.In addition to distinguishing by various trees, some are also distinguished by thickness.

It is said that it takes ten years to cultivate a tree and a hundred years to educate people. In fact, there are many trees that are not too strong even after ten years.

The wood betting handicap will last for half a month, and then look at it after a while, and everyone is not in a hurry to choose immediately.Now they all wanted to go up to see the Thunderbolt tree. It is said that the Thunderbolt tree has aura, and if they get close to it, they might be able to get some blessings.

All the way up the mountain, the breath of nature blows in your face, which is more refreshing than the hustle and bustle of the city.

There was nothing special down there, but Zhang Yu noticed something different when he was approaching the top of the mountain.

The trees are far thicker than those below, and many trees are surrounded by guardrails.On the guardrail, there is a number plate, such as the big tree in front of you, with the number "22" on it.

In addition to the number plate, four words "No Entry" were written, and a red cloth was hung on the tree.

Seeing this, Zhang Yu asked curiously, "What's going on?"

"As long as there is a guardrail, the numbered tree has already been bought and raised here, waiting to be struck by lightning." Zhan Shuaifei immediately introduced.

"Waiting to be struck by lightning." Zhang Yu smiled lightly, and asked again: "What does it mean to hang a piece of red cloth?"
