Chapter 1500 1500. Seeking Cooperation (45)

After hearing Li Du's words, the other party said seriously: "No, what I told you is my real information. My name is Zhong Dapao. It is well known that people on the street call me Brother Pao."

After hearing his words, Li Du had no choice but to get serious: "Your name is really that?"

Whose father and mother gave their children such a name? Li Du was stunned.

Zhong Dapao looked surprised, he smiled and said: "My father is a soldier, the artillery of the motherland. When I was born, he was practicing a new artillery, and then he named me this, haha."

Li Dugong cupped his hands and said, "Brother Pao, hello, what can I do for you?"

Zhong Dapao said: "I want to invite you to drink tea, and then I have something to talk to you about, I wonder if you are interested."

Li Du smiled and said, "I just walked out of the teahouse, and I want to drink tea again?"

Zhong Dabao waved his hands and said, "The teahouse you stayed in just now is called a liar's den! Come with me and take you to a serious place. You shouldn't need to worry, after all, you have so many bodyguards."

Li Du shook his head and said, "I'm not worried, it's just that I don't want to waste time. If you have anything to say, you might as well just say it."

Zhong Dapao said: "Okay, then I'll get straight to the point. My little brother should be a jade expert? I know that some good stones have appeared in a few places recently, but my vision is not good, and I want to cooperate with you."

Li Du smiled and waved his hands and said, "You should find someone else for this job. I can't do it. First, I'm not here to gamble with stones. Second, I'm not an expert, I'm a rookie."

Zhong Dapao sighed regretfully: "It's fine if you don't want to mess with Dapao, little brother, but you don't have to use such rhetoric to fool me, how boring is it?"

"That is, who came to Pagan not for stones? Is it for tourism? To this poor country? If you want to travel to Ruili for jade tourism, that is still our country's territory." The bald middle-aged man who has been standing by the side is a little unhappy Said.

This person was obviously familiar with Zhong Dapao. Zhong Dapao was afraid that his words would offend Li Du, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Old Hei, you can't force these things. Who told us to ask for others?"

He said to Li Du again: "Little brother, your skills are indeed invincible. But I think you are very strange, it should be the first time you come here, right? You at least need a guide, otherwise it will be a waste Your pair of piercing eyes!"

Li Du pushed Ge Danwei and said, "This is my tour guide."

Zhong Dapao glanced at him, and said, "My little brother is from Kachin Delang, right? Delang people also come to Pagan to play with stones? Regardless of the ancestor's instruction? This is going to be cut off!"

Ge Danwei smiled apologetically, "What Pao Ye said is that I don't play. When this Mr. Li hired me, he said that he was not here to buy stones, so I took the order."

As soon as he spoke, Zhong Dapao laughed, and said to Li Du: "Brother, it's not natural for you to do this."

Li Du said: "I really didn't intend to buy stones, my destination is not here, I just stopped by to have a look."

The bald middle-aged man curled his lips and said, "Who would believe this nonsense?"

Zhong Dapao gave him a kick, and then said: "I believe, I believe little brother. But with your ability, it's a pity that you don't play with rocks when you come to Pagan."

Li Du asked curiously: "How do you judge that my ability is very strong? I'm such a rookie!"

Zhong Dapao laughed: "The six grass chickens, you just look at and touch them casually, and you will know their value, and you also found the only stone with watercolors in it to show to the liar. They have sharp eyes, and my old Zhong has never seen them in half his life." I've seen a few!"

Li Du said: "It's just luck."

Zhong Dapao shook his head: "If you really don't like it, forget it, but if you are willing to cooperate, we can really get a fortune. Your ability and my information are a match made in heaven!"

Seeing that he couldn't say anything about Li Du, he left a business card and left with a bald middle-aged man.

Li Du looked at this simple business card, and asked Ge Danwei, "Do you know this person?"

Ge Danwei nodded: "I heard that Mr. Zhong Dapao is quite famous in Pagan. He is a soldier of your country. Later, he retired or defected and came to Pagan. Now he is a local snake here."

The road was bumpy, and Li Du wanted to find a place to rest.

Ge Danwei was quite worried: "Mr. Li, if you don't want to stay in Pagan to buy stones, let's leave early. I'm afraid it will be difficult to get along with those liars who offended before!"

Li Du said: "Let's take a rest first. If Pa dares to return to chaos, there is law to govern after all, right? Let's find the best hotel here. I don't believe that a few crooks dare to make trouble in such a hotel."

Gordanwe reluctantly agreed to come down and lead them down the street.

In a residential area, they found a hotel. This hotel has five floors, and the decoration is average. It looks old, and it can't even meet the three-star standard in China or the United States.

There are also stalls at the entrance of the hotel, selling fast food, non-staple food, clothes, etc., but there are no stone stalls, which are completely different from the outside.

Seeing Li Du's curiosity, Ge Danwei explained: "The stones sold by the vendors are all brought from the garbage dump, and they are used to fool outsiders."

With a large group of people, Li Du opened ten rooms, and each room cost 2,200 RMB, the same price as a five-star hotel in China.

The currency that circulates here is also renminbi, which may be the reason why domestic businessmen occupy the main body. This kind of hotel must be prepared for domestic businessmen.

Li Du paid for the room, and someone got out of the elevator. After seeing them, a young man curled his lips and said, "Hey, where did you come from? There are so many bodyguards from foreign devils."

The person next to him gave him a hand and said, "Don't cause trouble, is this kind of person we can afford?"

"It's a big deal, and you're afraid of being hanged?" The young man looked indifferent.

Li Du didn't want to cause trouble either, the other party was just making fun of it, so he wouldn't cause trouble because of it.

After paying the bill, he didn't go upstairs directly, but walked towards several young people.

The young people immediately showed the posture of facing the enemy, and some people put their hands on their waists and stared at Li Du warily.

Li Du didn't even look at them. After passing by, he squatted at the door and asked, "How do you sell popsicles?"

The popsicle seller is a little girl, only twelve or thirteen years old, squatting behind a machine that looks like a pressure cooker. This is a hand-cranked popsicle machine, which was popular in China in the 1960s and 1970s.

When Li Du was very young, this kind of popsicle machine was still available. He became interested after seeing it, and wanted to reminisce about his childhood.

The little girl stretched out a slap and said in Chinese: "Five hundred yuan."

Li Du was startled: "So expensive?"

The little girl pursed her lips and said, "Five hundred Hongyuan, or two yuan and fifty cents."

Only then did Li Du realize that it was expensive enough. No one would eat this kind of popsicle in the country, but it was sold here for 2.5 yuan. The price was astonishing.
