Chapter 39 The first time I encountered sandalwood rosewood.
Lu Yuan didn't feel used to it at all after coming out of the courtyard.
People in the courtyard greeted him when they saw him, Lu Yuan who was not very good at socializing.
I could only quicken my pace and walk out, and just nodded slightly to everyone who greeted me.
After coming out, Lu Yuan walked towards the main road.
It was indeed late yesterday, so it was normal that there were no empty rickshaws in this area.
Now it’s just past lunchtime, and some people are pulling carts, so they may also go home to eat.
There should be someone here now.
When Lu Yuan arrived at the main road, he saw three rickshaws parked on the side of the road waiting for passengers.
When Lu Yuan walked over, he happened to meet Huang Abao who pulled him last time.
"Abao, what a coincidence."
When Huang Abao heard someone talking to him, he immediately turned around and looked at Lu Yuan.
But looking at Lu Yuan's expression, he was sure that he didn't know the person in front of him at all.
Although he attracted many customers every day, he had never met such a handsome one.
He is a very elegant young man with well-maintained skin and no marks on his hands.
Huang Abao swore that he really didn't know the person in front of him.
"Sir, who are you?"
Lu Yuan looked at Huang Abao's confused expression.
I knew that people wouldn't be able to recognize him at all. After all, he has changed so much in this month.
Compare the situation a month ago with now.
Perhaps the previous state was even more eye-catching than it is now.
At that time, he was a young man who looked like he was about to die of hunger.
Now he is a handsome and domineering man, unprecedented and unparalleled in beauty.
"Haha, it's okay. Are you still soliciting customers now?"
Lu Yuan smiled and didn't explain. Instead, he asked if he wanted to solicit customers.
"Hello, hello, where are you going?"
As Huang Abao spoke, he patted the seat of the rickshaw with a towel.
"You go first, I'll talk to you later."
Lu Yuan did not tell the destination, but got in the car first.
Huang Abao did not continue asking questions, but just pulled the cart and started walking.
After all, there is no destination, so we can only walk slowly.
After a while, Lu Yuan finally asked.
"Abao, do you know where the nearest place is that sells wood?
I want wood that can be used to make furniture, and I want good quality wood.”
Huang Abao replied that after Lu Yuan asked about the place, he thought about it in his mind.
"Master, what you are talking about seems to be the section about Lou's Steel Rolling Mill, where there are several large yards that make and sell furniture.
As for wood, it seems that there is no wood in the urban area.
How about I take you to the carpenter? They should know where to buy the wood."
Lu Yuan nodded and said.
"Okay, let's go over there then."
"Okay, please come in, sir."
As soon as Huang Abao knew the destination, he ran in that direction.
Before, he just walked quickly, but now that he knew the place, he just ran over.
Time is money. For a laborer like him, if everyone doesn't know where the destination is.
Then why is he running?
It’s near the steel rolling mill, which is actually not far away. It only takes about 20 minutes to walk there.
However, in less than ten minutes, the rickshaw driver brought Lu Yuan to a not-so-small yard and stopped.
"Sir, we're here. Please get off the bus. The total is 1400 yuan."
Lu Yuan nodded and said.
"Here, here are two thousand. I might need to go buy some wood later. Just wait here for me. You don't need to change the rest."
Huang Abao took the money and was about to make the change when he heard Lu Yuan say this and immediately responded.
"Master, I understand. Don't worry."
Seeing that Huang Abao agreed, Lu Yuan didn't say anything else and walked straight towards the gate of the yard.
Looking at the ring on the door used for knocking (what is this thing called, does anyone know?), Lu Yuan grabbed it and knocked on the door three times.
"..." (I don't know how to write the sound of this thing, please ask the master for help.)
There was a knock on the door.
Lu Yuan stood quietly at the door waiting.
Because he had heard the sound coming from inside.
"Who is it?"
As the door opened, Lu Yuan looked at a teenage boy.
"Hello, is this a furniture shop?"
"Hello, this is a furniture shop. Are you here to have us make furniture for you, or do you want to buy ready-made furniture?"
As soon as Lu Yuan saw the young man, he knew he was just an apprentice.
He shook his head and said instantly.
"Neither. I just came here to ask if you have any wood for sale."
At this time, a voice came from the yard.
"Little donkey, let them in. Why are you standing at the door? You don't know how to entertain guests."
After hearing the voice of the man inside, Xiaolu said to Lu Yuan.
"Sir, please come in!"
Lu Yuan followed the man named Xiaolu into the yard.
There are many tools in the middle of the yard.
Lu Yuan understood the function of these tools at a glance.
Although he has never done carpentry work, his full-level carpentry skills are not something to brag about.
So he took a look and then looked away.
Then he saw a middle-aged man cutting wood.
If it was just wood, it was just ordinary wood. After taking a look at it, Lu Yuan had no desire to continue looking.
The middle-aged man stopped his work only after he had finished cutting the wood.
"Hey, are you planning to buy furniture from us? Or do you want us to come and make the furniture for you?
We don’t charge exorbitant prices here, and the furniture is absolutely genuine.”
Lu Yuan said after hearing what the middle-aged man said.
“Uncle, I’m not buying furniture, nor am I asking you to make furniture.
I came here to buy some wood, but I saw that all you have here are ordinary wood.
Do you know where I can buy wood? Good quality wood is best.
Zhang Tong heard Lu Yuan say that he was not here to buy furniture or make furniture.
I was a little angry at first, but then I heard later that he came to buy wood.
"Then I told you, what good is it for me?"
Lu Yuan didn't say anything, but stretched out a slap.
“Fifty thousand, that’s fine too.
But I also have some good wood here, I just don’t know if you can recognize it.”
When Lu Yuan heard this, he immediately smiled and took out a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes from his pocket.
He handed it over and asked.
"Hehe, don't worry, I still recognize the wood, please lead the way."
Zhang Tong took the cigarette.
This kid is quite smart.
"Okay, come with me, donkey, excuse me for interrupting this place."
Zhang Tong brought Lu Yuan to the house on the right.
After opening it, he continued walking towards the inner room.
Then he opened the door to the inner room and spoke to Lu Yuan.
"Young man, take a look at it. If you can understand it, I will sell it to you as long as the price is right."
Lu Yuan leaned over and looked inside.
Full-level carpentry comes into play instantly.
Lu Yuan immediately realized that the wood in the room was rosewood.
And the size is pretty good, basically more than 13 centimeters.
Lu Yuan realized that if this wood could be used to make furniture, with his maximum level of carpentry skills.
In later times, the price would definitely be extremely high.
"Excuse me, uncle, what's your last name?"
Lu Yuan asked the middle-aged man.
After all, this was not the same era as later times. The country had just been founded not long ago.
It is not common for people to have so much wood.
Lu Yuan just took a look and thought that there should be about three tons of wood in the inner room.
That is a weight of more than 6,000 kilograms.
The wood is extremely well preserved.
“Haha, judging from the young man’s appearance, it seems that he knows something about wood.
No need to worry about your surname being Zhang, you can just call me Uncle Zhang."
Lu Yuan nodded and continued.
"Boy Lu Yuan, nice to meet Uncle Zhang. So Uncle Zhang, are you sure you want to sell this batch of wood?"
"Haha, you are kidding! If I didn't want to sell it, why would I bring you over to see it?
Just tell me a price, if it's suitable, I'll sell it, if not, please forgive me."
Lu Yuan nodded, and then began to think.
After all, these days, this batch of wood is indeed good wood.
But as for the price, Lu Yuan really didn’t know how to price it.
After all, in this era, he only knew the prices of some daily necessities.
He really didn't know the price of this wood, and the full-level carpenter only told him what kind of wood it was.
How to process it into furniture.
Now I can only think about it.
Lu Yuan couldn't think of it, so he asked the system in his heart.
"System, how much should I pay for this batch of wood?"
"Ding……"
