The top agarwood has always been used for incense burning. Most of this agarwood is formed by insect-eaten or tree bark being traumatized by resin flowing out and condensing. It is basically in flakes or fragments, and it is impossible to process it into beads.

Zhao Hongtao originally wanted to get in some top agarwood, but who knew the person he was looking for, but he thought he was going to buy agarwood. In the end, he made a big mistake. Not only did Zhao Hongtao go for a while, he offended the friend who was an intermediary, which made him speechless.

"We business people rarely deal with the official business. Director Zhao, I left this matter to me..."

After hearing Zhao Hongtao's words, Man Jun couldn't help laughing. He actually encountered such a thing.

Last year, when Man Jun went to Qiong Province on a plane, he met an expert who claimed to be a Huanghuali wood. After chatting with him for a while, he found that the so-called expert actually thought that the entire Huanghuali tree could be used as wood. Man Jun was amused and crying.

The reason why Huanghuali is valuable is that it grows slowly, has a delicate surface, beautiful and gentle texture like jade, and is not easily bitten by insects and ants after making furniture. Even after hundreds of years, furniture made of Huanghuali wood will not be distorted.

Another reason is that huanghuali has been rare since ancient times, because the most precious rosewood only grows in the center of the yellow rosewood tree, just like there are trees in the tree. The truly useful rosewood is usually called "ge", and some people call it "heart wood".

However, not every Huanghuali tree can grow useful "grid" or "heartwood". There are many Huanghuali trees that have been growing for decades, and the grid inside is only the thickness of chopsticks, which shows that the preciousness and rareness of Huanghuali.

"Laoman, you are an expert, and I don't hide it from you. This time I just want to see the gambling tree..."

After hearing what Man Jun said, Zhao Hongtao knew that the other party was not an outsider. He said immediately: "This gambling tree cannot be regarded as a gambling tree, but there is a word for gambling in it. I'll say you should pay attention. Lao Man, please find a more reliable person. Take us into the mountain to have a look..."

In recent years, the price of jade in Myanmar has increased, which has made many people know the word "gambling for stones". However, in the circle of people who play wood, there is a saying of gambling trees, which refers to Huanghuali.

From the outside, you can't tell whether a yellow rosewood tree has a shape or heartwood. Only by splitting the trunk can you know it. So someone took out the whole tree to make people gamble. If the bet wins, the price of the tree may increase several times or even dozens of times, but if the bet loses, the loss will often be overwhelming.

Zhao Hongtao has been playing miscellaneous things for 10 or 20 years and has a special liking for wood. After hearing about gambling trees, he always wanted to see them. However, gambling trees usually only occur in the place of Huanghuali in Qiong Province. So he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to attend a meeting.

"Director Zhao, I'll call first and see if there are friends who are familiar with gambling trees over there?"

After figuring out what Zhao Hongtao meant, Man Jun did not agree as he had before, but instead sued him and left the office with his cell phone. He would not offend Zhao Hongtao if he could not contact the relevant person. However, if Man Jun could not take over the big debts, he would probably have no shame to see Zhao Hongtao again in the future.

"Old man is a person who does business..."

Seeing Man Jun go out to make a phone call, Zhao Hongtao nodded. Nowadays, some people don’t brag and can’t speak anymore. On the contrary, those who do the truth often make the matter almost done before they make promises.

"Fang Yi. Let Lao Man take the check to the bank to record the money in the afternoon. Let's talk about you..." Zhao Hongtao turned his gaze to Fang Yi.

"About the house?" Fang Yi felt aroused in his heart when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, isn't that fast? I just told you about this matter yesterday, and I'm going to have a look today?"

"I can't make the decision on other people's houses, aren't my own?"

Zhao Hongtao smiled and raised his hand. There was a bunch of keys in his hand. "I brought the keys to work today. I'll give them to you first. If you don't want to live in Manjun, you'll move over. There are pots, pans, beds, and quilts inside, and everything is new..."

Since he wanted to do favors, he had to make a full set. Zhao Hongtao spent a lot of money on furniture items at that time, but he was too lazy to forget about Fang Yi, and he gave all the air conditioners and electrical appliances in the house to Fang Yi.

"Brother Zhao, why don't you... add some more money?"

After taking the keys thrown by Zhao Hongtao, Fang Yi felt a little embarrassed. He asked the teacher in the morning and knew that the price of the house in this museum had increased a lot. It cost about 1,700 square meters for people outside to buy it. Zhao Hongtao only received two thousand yuan for his renovation. The decoration was almost the same as giving it for free.

"Enough to increase the money, you don't have to be embarrassed. Speaking of which, I have made some money in this house..."

Seeing Fang Yi's appearance, Zhao Hongtao laughed. What he said was true. At that time, the house was allocated by the unit. After the house was changed, the level and service life were converted. Zhao Hongtao only paid more than 40,000 yuan for a house of 180 square meters.

In addition, more than 100,000 yuan spent on decoration and home appliances and furniture, Zhao Hongtao spent more than 200,000 yuan in total. Now he sold 2,000 square meters to Fang Yi, and 180 square meters is 360,000 yuan. So Zhao Hongtao not only did not suffer any losses, but also earned more than 100,000 yuan.

Of course, this love Fang Yi still has the point, because Zhao Hongtao is optimistic about the real estate market in Jinling. According to his estimate, if he doesn't sell it now, as long as he lasts three to five years, his house will be at least 5,000 per square meter. Compared with the current two thousand, this favor is not a big deal.

"Okay, Brother Zhao, I won't be polite to you..."

After hearing what Zhao Hongtao said, Fang Yi was not pretentious and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, do you still need to sign something? I don't know what it is about applying for a certificate, so I'll trouble you. By the way, I'll call you that money in the afternoon..."

"Sign a contract, I will turn around and ask someone to sign it out. Applying a certificate is a trivial matter, I can just ask someone to do it..." Zhao Hongtao suddenly remembered something and asked, "Fang Yi, where is your household registration? Do you want to transfer to Jinling?"

In the past two thousand years, it is still difficult to handle agricultural transfers. However, if Fang Yi buys a house, Zhao Hongtao can find some contacts and still be able to leave Fang Yi's household registration.

"My household registration is in Fangcun. If it's not troublesome, just transfer it..." Fang Yi thought for a while and said, "Brother Zhao, it's also possible to get one. Can you get the fat man's household registration?"

Fang Yi lived in a Taoist temple in the deep mountains with the old Taoist priest, and he didn't even have a house number, so he naturally couldn't apply for an ID card. However, the old Taoist priest asked the fat man's father to issue a certificate, and then helped Fang Yi apply for Fang Village's ID card at the police station in the village.

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether Fang Yi can transfer his household registration himself. After going down the mountain for so long, Fang Yi has no chance to take out his ID card, nor does he feel that there is any inconvenience in rural household registration. However, Fang Yi knew that the fat man dreamed of being a city person.

"You said that, after looking back, the fat man bought a house, but he met some conditions. What about Sanpao? Should I do it too?"

Zhao Hongtao thought it was true. Anyway, he had to ask someone to go through some back doors. There was no difference between one and three, so he simply asked Fang Yi if he wanted to do it together with three shots.

"Sanpao was originally a Jinling resident, so there was no need to help him. By the way, Brother Zhao, are there any houses for those two?" Fang Yi shook his head. Sanpao's parents were educated youths in the countryside. Although they had not implemented the policy in the 1980s, they still transferred their resident to the city a few years ago.

"I called and asked yesterday. There are several households who are willing to sell them. When I get off work, I will ask them to take you to see..." Zhao Hongtao lit a cigarette and said, "But I didn't say much about the price. I still want you to talk about it. I don't care about the more you talk about it..."

Most of the museum employees who bought a house after changing houses back then spent only 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. In just two or three years, they could earn more than 200,000 yuan by selling them. Some old employees who couldn't live here wanted to sell the house. Zhao Hongtao called and asked, and several people were yelling to sell it.

Of course, as the leader of the museum, Zhao Hongtao still has to avoid quarrels. He can help Fang Yi inquire, but he can't talk about money. After all, those people are his subordinates, so it's easy to leave a handle on people-
