Chapter Twelve Became Trash Again

  "Alright, Ling Feng it is then, I'll acknowledge you as a brother!" Li Yang patted Ling Feng's shoulder and laughed.

  Ling Feng immediately jumped up with excitement, jumping a few times on the ground and shouting: "Haha, big brother, take me to ride in your truck and feel the wind!"

  Why does this young master keep remembering this car? Li Yang couldn't help but feel a bit depressed.

  He thought for a moment and whispered to him: "Brother, I have some gold in my hand, do you want it?"

  "My family is in this business, why wouldn't we want it? Brother, how much gold do you have and what's the purity?"

  "The quality is definitely not a problem, at least three nines, not many, just over 300 kilograms."

  "Three hundred grams, I'll give you 280 yuan per gram at a high price. You bring it and we'll weigh it together. Brother, I won't check the purity this time, I'll just pay you now, but we have to agree that after you sell the gold, you'll take me out for a stroll."

  Ling Feng, with a chicken coop on his head, pulled over the small shoulder bag he was carrying and took out two bundles of neatly tied renminbi. Seeing Li Yang's tightly locked eyebrows didn't move at all.

  He suddenly felt a chill and recalled what Li Yang had just said, his voice trembling with fear: "Big brother, how much gold did you say earlier?"

  "Over three hundred kilograms."

  "Boom!"

  Ling Feng plopped down on the ground, then suddenly pounced up and hugged Li Yang's thigh, saying: "Big brother, I didn't expect you to be so rich! I was really blind earlier, wanting to buy your car too! But... but why are you wearing ordinary school uniform? And those sports shoes on your feet look like cheap stuff that only costs tens of yuan..."

  Li Yang glared at him and said in a low voice, "I'm a student, what else would I wear if not school uniform? My school uniform and shoes are all from Pierre Cardin. You just don't recognize the brand. One sentence: do you want these gold or not? If you do, I'll take you out for a spin right now."

  "It's only natural! But this is a huge business worth hundreds of millions, big brother you have to come with me to see my father. When did Pierre Cardin start making school uniforms? I didn't see it at the fashion show this year?"

  "No problem, but let's hurry up, I have something urgent to attend to."

  As soon as Lai Yang's voice fell, Old Zhang in a blue work uniform walked in quickly, handed Lai Yang a black plastic bag, and bowed his head: "Younger brother, the goods have been checked, exactly 10,230 kilograms, two yuan per kilogram, totaling 20,460 yuan, sir, please take it."

  "Uncle Zhang, this is my brother Li. You didn't cheat him out of his money when you bought the scrap iron from him just now, did you?"

  "Ling Shao... what your brother sold to us wasn't scrap iron, but... special steel. The price I gave him was also okay, just a bit... a bit...", the old man's face turned red like a frost-bitten persimmon, and he stuttered, unable to continue for half a day.

  "Special steel! Big brother, let's go take a look."

  Ling Feng pulled Lei Yang quickly to the warehouse to see what was going on. Before they even entered the warehouse, they heard the workers inside talking in hushed tones.

  "Uncle Zhang has made a big deal this time! These special steel alloys are just right for making car crankshafts!"

  "Right, these high-quality steels are incredibly dense. Under a thousand-power microscope, you can't see any pores at all! They're far better than what we produce in our own factory!"

  "I've lived all these years and this is the first time I've seen such good steel!"

  "Haha, this is great stuff! Uncle Zhang actually bought it at a price of 2 yuan per kilogram. This time we've made a huge profit!"

  "That kid has no idea what he's got! He's got something so good in his hands and he's selling it as scrap, it's laughable!"

  Ling Feng didn't say a word, turned his head to glance at Old Zhang's flustered face, and his handsome face gradually turned waxen yellow, which was quite in harmony with his bright yellow chicken coop-like hair.

  What's crankshaft? Li Yang shook his head, indicating he didn't understand.

  As soon as they entered the warehouse, the workers who had been talking loudly just now all fell silent, looking at Ling Shao's unfriendly face and hastily moving aside to fetch a stool for him to sit on.

  "You shortsighted dogs, since my brother Li can produce such good steel, are you worthy of offending him? Adjust the microscope properly, I want to take a look myself!" Ling Feng kicked over a plastic chair that a worker had placed in front of him.

  It just so happened that these workers were observing a piece of steel with a microscope nearby, and they quickly invited Lingfeng over.

  Ling Feng seemed **unrestrained**, but in fact, he was very proficient in metal smelting. He leaned over the microscope and looked for only three seconds, his eyes widened in surprise!

  Next, he rushed to Li Yang's face and shouted: "Brother, as far as I know, it is very difficult to smelt steel without any air bubbles even in a vacuum state. How did you do it?

  The crankshaft in the car engine is made of special high-quality steel that has been forged thousands of times under a hydraulic press of tens of thousands of tons to ensure that there are fewer than thirty air bubbles, and your steel material doesn't have any air bubbles at all, it's really unbelievable!

  I find it hard to judge the price of this batch of steel, so let me take charge and buy it at 20 yuan per kilogram. If we later discover that the price is lower, I'll make up the difference for you, big brother."

  One kilogram for twenty yuan, wouldn't I immediately get over 240,000 yuan?

  Li Yang looked at the enthusiastic Ling Feng in front of him, feeling a sense of emotion. If it weren't for him, he would have lost at least 200,000 yuan. Now Li Yang's impression of him had improved greatly.

  "Uncle Zhang, do you know that you almost offended a big client? I'll report this to my father right away, and it's up to him to decide how to deal with you." Li Yang threatened the old man Zhang in a fierce tone.

  "Ling Gongzi, you'd better plead with your father on my behalf. I'm doing this for the sake of our company's interests!" Old Zhang was taken aback.

  "Hurry up and give Brother Li the money?" Ling Feng's expression was still very unpleasant.

  Old Zhang hurriedly ran out with a fart, and after exiting the warehouse door, he fell and got up again, crying out in pain. He didn't even bother to brush off the dirt on his body and quickly started running again.

  Before long, the old man came back running, holding an even larger plastic bag, and handed it to Li Yang with a look of great anxiety, saying: "Boss Li, this is the remaining payment for this batch of steel, not one cent less, please, I beg of you, have mercy on me!"

  Lei Yang picked up the purse and looked inside, it was packed with money. His mind went blank for a moment, his body tilted to one side, almost falling to the ground!

  This was his first time seeing so much money, a sense of happiness suddenly burst in his heart, and a smile involuntarily hung on his face.

  "Ling Feng, although Uncle Zhang was wrong, considering his age, let's just forgive him and not mention this to your father." Li Yang now clearly in a good mood, smiled and spoke up to plead for mercy for Old Zhang.

  "Haha, Brother Li has spoken, so I'll naturally obey. Old Zhang, this time you're lucky, otherwise you'd definitely be rolling up your bedding and leaving."

  After settling the payment, Li Yang tightly pulled Ling Feng onto his own truck. As soon as the door closed, the car sped away like an arrow leaving a bowstring.

  Yang Ming sat in the driver's seat, looking very serious, and asked Ling Feng for their home address. Then this old Dongfeng truck sped along the road, constantly taking detours through the wilderness and mountains, even crossing a river that was one and a half meters deep, without slowing down at all, leaving Ling Feng staring in shock!

  "Ah, Brother Li, this car has been driven all the way to Luanshitai, why is it still not bumpy at all? This shock absorption is too good!"

  "The engine is too quiet, I can't even hear it roaring, has my ear gone bad?"

  "Brother Li, it's incredible! This deep river can also be crossed!"

  "Wow, going up the mountain! Going up the mountain!"

  "Brother Li, I give up! This isn't a Dongfeng truck at all, it's a freaking all-terrain vehicle!"

  "Brother Li, your car may look shabby on the outside, but the interior is decorated with new stuff and doesn't have any smell at all. I couldn't even smell a hint of gasoline!"

  "Hey Li Ge, does your car run on diesel? No, I didn't smell any diesel either!"

  All the way, Ling Feng was full of 100,000 whys in his mind. Li Yang was afraid that the more he explained, the darker it would become, so he simply ignored him. He thought to himself, "If I let the mining ship fly directly into the sky or teleport to their home, I'm sure this kid will be scared out of his wits."

  He drove while gesturing to the mining ship to put the gold under the bed board behind the front row of seats. Over 300 kilograms of gold sounds like a lot, but in reality, it's not that bulky and the gap under the bed board was enough to hold it.

  Because they were basically walking in a straight line, half an hour later, Li Yang pulled Ling Feng and finally arrived at their destination.

  The Ling family lived in the high-end residential area of Dehouyuan, Beiguan, Dongnan City. The security guard at the entrance looked at this dilapidated Dongfeng car and stepped out with a stern expression, shouting: "Trash cars go to the west side door! Are you blind? How dare you drive here?! Get out of here!"

  Ling Feng saw the situation and rolled down the car window, shouting: "You little brat, have you smelled something stinky? You're even pinching your nose! Open the door quickly, if you're slow, I'll directly kick it open!"

  "Ah! Young Master Ling, how are you in the car?! Young Master, why are you taking a dump truck today?" The security guard was suddenly stunned and hurriedly ran up to bow and scrape.

  "Get out of here! This is my brother's off-road vehicle, and I wanted to trade it with a Ferrari Rolls-Royce, but he wouldn't agree!" Ling Feng said angrily.

  "Hey, Ling Gongzi, you know what? We really didn't smell anything bad. This garbage truck is actually quite clean. Hold on a minute, Ling Gongzi, I'll open the door."

  "Listen up, kid! If you say that Brother Ling's car is a piece of junk again, I'll call Wang Dehou right now and have him fire you on the spot!"

  "Lord Ling, please don't! I was wrong, I'll punish myself with a slap on the face!" The security guard had already opened the door and was bowing and smiling, pretending to slap himself in the face.

  Ling Feng finally felt relieved, closed the car window glass, and Li Yang manipulated the Dongfeng car to quickly enter the community.

  Several security guards at the gate were whispering to each other, this garbage truck not only didn't smell, but also ran quietly, it was really strange, apparently it wasn't an ordinary vehicle, probably a high-end garbage truck.

  Dehouyuan residential area is the most luxurious residential area in Southeast City, with 50,000 sets of housing sources, an average price of 31,000 yuan per square meter. There are hundreds of villas with a building area of over 500 square meters, and the average price has even reached 51,000 yuan per square meter.

  The Ling family is located in the middle of the community, on the banks of Houde Lake, covering an area of 1,200 square meters. Opening the window can see a lake with an area of 50 mu, and there are ancient trees, beautiful stones, and exotic flowers and grasses all over the place outside the villa, making people feel relaxed and happy when walking around.

  Only the rich and powerful can live in the lakeside villa area, where everyone drives Mercedes-Benz or BMWs. Even if they're not doing well, they'll at least drive a Hummer. This place is like a world-famous car show. So when Li Yang arrived driving an even more impressive broken Dongfeng truck, it attracted many onlookers pointing and staring.
