Chapter 305: Hanging Out With Big Boss Will Never Be Too Bad (2)
With Ji Mingzhe around, Mo Beihan would surely want to split the money equally. They were all trustworthy people and Mo Beihan did not mind such stuff.
But Ji Mingzhe was embarrassed to receive it.
Truthfully speaking, this hunting experience was beyond his ken. Apart from using some strength, he seemed to have not provided much help.
He glanced at Lin Dongxu.
Lin Dongxu replied with a silly smile, “I don’t have that capability. I’m very grateful that Elder Brother Mo is willing to bring me along. I’ll just take that six hundred-over yuan. I don’t dare to take the remaining.”
Whenever he worked with Mo Beihan, he always took the remainder most of the time.
He was very aware of his own capabilities. Even if it was just the remainder, it was much higher than his salary. Six hundred-over yuan would amount to his salary of two years.
Without Mo Beihan, he would not have such a chance. Thus, if Mo Beihan ate meat, Lin Dongxu would be glad as long as he could follow Mo Beihan but have soup.
Lin Dongxu was very content.
Ji Mingzhe took 1,000 yuan.
“Keep that five thousand yuan and those old articles for yourself! I did not help much either. Everything was almost your…”
“But you…”
“Don’t. We’ll settle it this way this time!” Ji Mingzhe slapped the table. “We are all brothers. I will feel ashamed if I take advantage of you. I have never gotten so much stuff before. Furthermore, I don’t have so many channels to sell these away in such a short time.
“I’ll take only that amount. I’ll take the rice and flour that I traded. Also five catties of the remaining pork, one chicken and two fishes. I’ll bring them back for my family to have something good to eat.
“Brother! I’m already embarrassed to take so much. You must not dislike me for splitting your loots and not bring me along next time!”
Mo Beihan thought it was funny. “Do you think we will have such good luck every time? Also, do you really think those preys in the mountains will be endless in supply? I only go there once in a while. We only got so many things because our luck was good this time. Usually, there aren’t so many.”
He caught fishes most of the time.
There were many wealthy people in Nancheng, but the supplies every month were simply insufficient. Thus, everyone did not care much about the high prices in the black market.
Despite this, Ji Mingzhe was still delighted.
“It’s all right even if there isn’t a lot. I understand. If we really caught so many every day, wouldn’t we be rich already?”
He looked at the old articles that Mo Beihan traded. There were some antiques and some pearls and jewels that were worthless now.
“Beihan. Will this item be useful in the future?”
Mo Beihan laughed. “Who knows? I just felt that it might be a treasure with the past thousand years of history so it shouldn’t be worthless now.”
“It is indeed quite chaotic now, but who can be sure that this won’t pass?”
Ji Mingzhe was taken aback.
Mo Beihan patted his shoulder with a laugh. “Listen to me and collect some of these if you have a chance. Anyway, these items are worthless now and it’s quite easy to obtain them if you really want to.
“If the days return to normal and these items regain their original worth, think about how difficult it would be to obtain these items by then!”
Ji Mingzhe was silent.
Although the Ji family was considered a superior family, it did not have any rich foundation and merely achieved some success in recent years through hard work. It was seriously lacking as compared to those well-established families.
If the times really returned to normal in the future, the Ji family would definitely lose out to those families and by then, the effects of the family’s foundation would be clear.
If he could prepare some now, in the future…
