Chapter 8 Be prepared to buy gold

If the young man in front of him hadn't just made a deal in his hands, Liao Peng might have thought he was a liar and turned around and left.

Lin Shi also knew that what he said was a bit outrageous. He motioned to Liao Peng to take out the payment code on his mobile phone and transferred 100,000 yuan to him.

"This is two months' salary."

Now Liao Peng believed Lin Shi's words. Who would make a joke with so much money?

However, he was cautious and asked to sign a labor contract with Lin Shi.

Lin Shi also had this intention. The shelter was closely related to his future survival. He could not expect to let Liao Peng work for him wholeheartedly just by saying a few words.

After the two discussed the contract details, they signed a labor contract.

The content of the contract is probably that Lin Shi hired Liao Peng as his personal butler with an annual salary of 500,000.

Responsible for handling the construction, supervision and acceptance of new houses in Shashi, as well as helping Lin Shi handle some chores.

Lin Shi wanted to protect Liao Peng's salary and other rights and interests.

Lin Shi's time limit was tight, so Liao Peng immediately resigned and took office.

With this job, he only needs to work for a few years to buy a house in the suburbs of Haishi, which is many times better than working as a real estate agency.

I secretly made up my mind to work hard and let Boss Lin see my ability.

Little did he know that the job would end in three months.

Lin Shi didn't even think about hiring him for long. Once the shelter was built, Liao Peng's work was over.

Lin Shi directly ordered:

"Liao Peng, you first go to Shashi and find a homestead that is willing to be sold according to my requirements."

Lin Shi's requirements were that the terrain be high and flat, with no high-rise buildings around, a remote location, and a large land area where construction could begin directly.

This is Liao Peng's old profession, and it should not be difficult for Liao Peng.

"Okay boss."

Liao Peng quickly got into character and immediately went to book the earliest flight ticket.

Shashi, Nan Province, is a famous tourist destination and the city closest to the equator, with no winter all year round.

After the arrival of the extreme cold apocalypse, the living space of human beings has shrunk sharply, and the temperature in the north is extremely low, making it no longer suitable for human habitation.

Even though buildings in the north are more cold-resistant than those in the south, natural gas pipelines in the north are quickly cracked by freezing.

Without heating, the outdoor temperature reached an average of minus 70 degrees Celsius, which almost cut off food sources, forcing northerners to migrate south.

And that's just in the summer.

Only a few areas with treasury granaries managed to survive and shelters for survivors were established.

Although the equator does not withstand the extreme cold, it is at least thirty to forty degrees higher than the temperature in the north, with the average temperature being only minus 30°C to minus 50°C.

Moreover, Shashi is close to the sea, and officials occasionally dig through the ice to salvage frozen fish. Food is not as scarce as in the north.

Lin Shi's preparation in this life was not because he was coveting official supplies.

After having space to carry a large amount of supplies with him, safety became the most important issue for Lin Shi to consider.

The most terrifying thing in the apocalypse is not the extremely bad weather, but human beings themselves.

In the extreme cold without food, hungry people resorted to all possible means, killing people to grab supplies, and cannibalism was common.

No city has a stable order.

Shashi has the largest official shelter in the Xia Kingdom, and most of the Xia Kingdom's senior officials, scientific researchers, and troops are gathered there.

The order is naturally much better than other places.

And in my previous life, I heard that Shashi had developed food that could be grown in extremely cold weather.

If he wanted to do his best in this life, he would naturally do his best and build his shelter directly in Shashi.

After Lin Shi warned Liao Peng about the relevant precautions in building a shelter, he returned home.

Early the next morning, after finishing his daily morning exercises, Lin Shi put all the things he could take away from home into the space.

Just throw away the useless ones downstairs.

Before going out, Lin Shi took one last look at the empty house, turned around and left without any hesitation.

It's just a house. He is home wherever he is.

Lin Shi didn't know that not long after he left home, Zhao Xiao went to his house to look for him.

But because he couldn't find Lin Shi, he was scolded by Father Zhao and Mother Zhao in the next few days.

Lin Shi went through the house transfer procedures according to the agreed time.

After the money arrived, he transferred 450,000 to Chen Qingqing.

Then go straight to the bank.

Xia Guo Bank, the largest head office in Hai City, is located in the city center.

Because the amount of gold needed was large and the bank was afraid that the bank would not have enough gold at once, Lin Shi made sure yesterday that the house could be transferred today and already called the account manager to make an appointment.

It was already afternoon when he came to the bank.

I bought a suitcase on the way to carry the gold.

Now Lin Shi's deposits have reached 25.4 million.

His original savings plus the three gold bars sold, excluding the rented warehouse and spending on Liao Peng and odds and ends, left 15.4 million.

Sold the house for 9 million.

I borrowed 1 million through various online loan apps.

If it weren't for the stipulation that a person can't borrow more than one million from different formal platforms, Lin Shi would have borrowed more.

Lin Shi now has a total of 25.4 million funds, which can buy 60 kilograms of gold.

Calculated according to the rule that the money points will double every time the cornucopia is upgraded.

60 kilograms of gold can upgrade the space four times, and then upgrade the item to copy twice.

Upgrading space five times or upgrading item duplication three times alone is not enough.

The current volume of the space is 6*6*6, 216 cubic meters, which is almost enough after four upgrades.

What Lin Shi wanted to know was what would happen after the ability to copy items was upgraded.

There were many people in the bank. Lin Shi walked in with his suitcase and was very conspicuous. Bank staff immediately came up and asked:

"What business do I need to handle?"

Lin Shidao: "I'm here to buy gold. I made an appointment yesterday."

"Which manager did you contact?"

"The surname is Chu."

Soon Lin Shi was taken to the door of an office.

…

Chu Xiaodie is the account manager at the head office of Xiaguo Bank in Haishi.

Yesterday, a customer with a deposit of tens of millions called her and said that he wanted to buy 60 kilograms of gold at the bank.

Chu Xiaodie was very surprised.

What is the concept of 60 kilograms of gold?

Although the international gold price has dropped by a few yuan in the past two days, each gram of gold still costs 413 yuan. Adding the bank's minimum labor fee of 5 yuan, 60 kilograms of gold costs 25.08 million.

Generally, wealthy people invest in gold stocks or gold futures, and few people will buy so much physical gold.

Moreover, the current situation has been unstable in the past few years, and the price of gold has remained high. It is very easy to lose money if you buy so much physical gold.

Chu Xiaodie curiously checked the customer information.

The information shows that this person’s name is Lin Shi and he is only 19 years old.

Chu Xiaodie had a deep impression of this boy.

Three years ago, an electronic and power engineer from Tianqi New Energy Co., Ltd., the largest new energy company in Shanghai, died due to an accident at work.

Tianqi New Energy Co., Ltd. paid a compensation of 10 million with a wave of its hand.

It was well received at the time.

It didn't take long for the electronic and electrical engineer's son to receive the compensation, and Chu Xiaodie handled the business for him.

Chu Xiaodie remembered that the boy's name was Lin Shi.

Chu Xiaodie checked the physical gold inventory stored in the bank, and after confirming that it was in stock, she replied to Lin Shi that she could come to handle the purchase procedure at any time.

She waited all morning, looking toward the door from time to time.

After waiting for a long time, no one came.

At noon, she was about to rest a little longer, when there was a knock on the door.

"Manager, here comes the gold buyer."
