The King of Global Scrap Collection

They chatted intermittently for around ten minutes.

In the end, when the issue of the order came up, Zhao Yi told him to send it to the Tianning Temple Antique Shop.

Li Zhongnan packaged everything up and ordered a three-wheeler to take it over.

Upon arriving, the antique shop was void of customers, completely quiet, with an old man sitting inside reading a book.

After taking the Genetic Potion, his vision had improved significantly. From a distance, he could easily make out that the old man was reading a book about pig farming techniques.

Could he be raising pigs?

This made Li Zhongnan even more curious about the old fellow's identity.

The old man became cheerful the moment he heard footsteps, and put on a fawning smile, saying, "Welcome, sir, everything here is a treasure."

However, the moment he lifted his head and saw Li Zhongnan, his smile abruptly stiffened: "What are you doing here?"

Clearly, the old man held a grudge against him. He still hadn't forgotten that he was cheated by Li Zhongnan last time.

Li Zhongnan only smiled slightly: "Miss Zhao asked me to deliver the phones."

No matter what, the old man was his major client now, so a smile was certainly necessary.

Upon hearing this, the old man's expression softened: "Bring the items in!"

"Sure!"

Li Zhongnan agreed, and after he stepped out, he soon returned carrying two large boxes, one in each hand, without any signs of struggle. The old man was taken aback, wondering how strong and well-controlled this man must be.

Li Zhongnan opened the boxes and took out the phones for inspection. The old man seemed quite satisfied and asked directly, "How much is it in total?"

Li Zhongnan made a show of calculating before responding: "Four hundred and twenty thousand!"

Actually, he had already done the math on his way there. He was selling at 60% of the market price, which would only add up to four hundred thousand, but he deliberately quoted twenty thousand more, worrying about the old man haggling over the price.

Unexpectedly, perhaps influenced by the last transaction, the old man did not bargain this time. He even asked for Li Zhongnan's bank account number without doing the sums, and directly transferred the money.

Ha, in a word, he earned an extra twenty thousand.

Doing business really did require having a thick skin!

After doing some rough calculations, the total cost of recycling the two hundred phones was around fifty to sixty thousand, plus the cost of gold coins and accessories, which added up to approximately one hundred thousand.

This time, he made a profit of over three hundred thousand, with ease!

The amount of cash in his card account was close to half a million.

Next, Li Zhongnan looked around and saw that Zhang Daqian's painting was still there. He breathed a sigh of relief. After all, who would buy a damaged and greasy painting for half a million in this small County Town?

He exited the antique shop.

His phone rang, it was a call from Han Xue.

When Li Zhongnan asked what was going on, she told him that it was about her cousin and asked him to meet the young girl.

Li Zhongnan then teasingly asked, "Is she pretty?"

"Pretty, extremely pretty!"

Han Xue giggled: "Almost as pretty as me!"

Li Zhongnan teased again, smiling, "Well then, let her be my secretary!"

Yeah, he had a secretary to work on his stuff when busy and then to have fun with when free.

Upon arriving at the designated location, he spotted the tall girl from afar.

Li Zhongnan laughed, what a coincidence, wasn't that the same young girl who came to the store to get her phone fixed on the first day?

"Bastard cheater, return my phone."

The moment Chen Xiaoting spotted Li Zhongnan, she charged at him, flailing and kicking. After the college entrance exam, she looked for Li Zhongnan but he was busy collecting textbooks and wasn't in the store.

Li Zhongnan was dumbstruck, was this really necessary over two hundred yuan? It felt as if he had cheated her out of a relationship!

Looking at the skeptical gaze from Han Xue, he became even more annoyed. Seeing that the young girl was her cousin, he just dodged Chen Xiaoting gently, reminding her, "We could talk it out, you might damage your phone."

At this point, Chen Xiaoting was holding a phone in her hand, only this time it was a Xiaomi instead of an iPhone.

The mention of the phone made Chen Xiaoting even more frantic. She yelled, "Bastard cheater! I'll kill you!"

The more the young girl thought about it, the more upset she felt, and she used even more force, even trying to scratch his face.

Seeing her relentless, Li Zhongnan also got angry, he shouted, "Bitch, are you freaking crazy?"

He thrust her aside.

With Li Zhongnan's strength, Chen Xiaoting fell and couldn't get up for a while. She sat on the floor, holding her head and started wailing.

Han Xue shouted at him, "You junk collector, what did you do to her! Are you a beast? She's only eighteen!"

Li Zhongnan shot her a look and said sternly, "Stop being nosy, what could I have done to her? I'm not interested!"

He lit a cigarette and started smoking without giving it another thought.

Feeling helpless, Han Xue went over and comforted Chen Xiaoting with soft words.

After a while, when the young girl had calmed down a bit, Han Xue asked what had happened. Chen Xiaoting explained the situation through sobs, then complained, "Cousin, you must make him pay for my phone."

"Alright, don't cry, I'll buy you a new one next month when I get paid," Han Xue consoled.

The phone was broken by her, it wasn't his fault.

Turning to Li Zhongnan, she apologized with a smile, "I'm sorry for misunderstanding you. Also, this girl has a bit of a temper, please don't take it to heart."

"Yeah, her temper isn't just 'a bit' bad."

Li Zhongnan shook his head and smiled, then turned towards Chen Xiaoting, "Alright, it is just a phone. Bring yours, I will get you a new one." After all, he had to give Han Xue some face. Moreover, he could fix it as soon as the system was on; it would only cost one gold coin anyway.

Upon hearing his words, Chen Xiaoting stopped crying and looked up at him, "You said it! Cousin, you heard him, he mustn't lie!"

Han Xue, however, chided, "Xiao Ting, stop the fuss."

In Han Xue's eyes, Li Zhongnan was just a junk collector who had now started a repair shop, and it hadn't been many days since he opened, probably not earning much. An iPhone cost several thousand, which was not a small sum.

How could she know that he was now worth over a million?

Knowing she was considering him, Li Zhongnan felt slightly touched and pretended to be upset, "Class leader, you're looking down on me! A phone, I, a junk collector, can afford to replace!"

Given where the conversation was heading, Han Xue couldn't say anything else.

Chen Xiaoting immediately wiped her tears and apologized to Li Zhongnan: "Sorry, handsome boss. I was just being impulsive, don't take it personally."

Incredible, she changed her mind quickly.

After a while, about ten boys and girls, mostly girls, arrived. According to them, they were Chen Xiaoting's classmates and some of them were starting work the next day, so they had gathered for a meet-up.

Next, Li Zhongnan took them out for dinner, and afterwards, they all went to sing karaoke.

By midnight, everyone had left and only Li Zhongnan along with Han Xue and her sister were left in the private room.

Chen Xiaoting was holding an empty wine bottle, shouting towards Li Zhongnan "Boss, come on, drink, drink~~~"

Then, she collapsed onto the sofa, completely drunk.
