Before doing something, everyone should make themselves a complete plan, so that they could achieve the desired effect even more efficiently.

So In order to get his “revenge” against his father by emptying his pockets, Bai Yang started his planning phase carefully.

Because he just moved into this villa, there was not a single piece of paper that he could find, so he started writing notes on the note app on his phone. After about 10 minutes of careful thinking, Bai Yang wrote down his completed plan.

Number one: search for precious wood.

Number two: find a way to get them here so that he could empty his dad"s pocket!

“Perfect! Now, for the execution.” Bai Yang nodded with a satisfied heart after going through the two-step plan he spent 10 minutes creating.

The plan was simple of course, but let"s not dwell in the minor details.

Thanks again to the power of the internet, Bai Yang managed to acquire the details of many precious wood online.

Wood like Amboyna wood, fragrant rosewood and Phoebe Zhennan were all top-tiered precious materials people wanted to use to make furnitures. Often, furniture made from these woods were all sold at absurd prices, some even made it so far as being sold at the price of hundreds of thousands even in the form of a bracelet.

According to the age and where the wood was found, their prices would differ. For Bai Yang, he couldn"t be bothered at all, all he needed to do was to supply the raw materials, be a porter of the great nature, so he only saved the appearance of these wood and the way to differentiate them into his phone.

People often said that different types of wood would affect their appearance, their carvings and how they would benefit the human body. Of course, none of this had anything to do with Bai Yang, all he cared for was how to empty his father"s pocket.

But this did not mean that Bai Yang was not committed and ungrateful, he merely wanted to help his father by pus.h.i.+ng his business to the next level. There was no way he could bring himself to ignore the efforts and hards.h.i.+p that his parents went through to raise him, or he wouldn"t even be bothered with finding this wood, which would delay his exploration of this whole new world.

But, he also found out that it was seemingly illegal to trade such precious wood; there would be trouble if he started selling them without the necessary permits and doc.u.ments….

He scratched his head and neglected these details, screw it, first things first was to find this wood. As for the legal side, his father, who was in this field, probably knew more than him, so it would not be too late after he gets his hands on them.

“Now, time to bring the saw and get there to find them. Eh? Where"s my saw?”

It was now that he remembered that he forgot the saw at home when he moved out of his house.

He tapped his head and decided to head back.

As he walked away, he suddenly caught a glimpse at the two jars and a cloth bag in the room. He frowned right away; of the two jars, one was the tiger p.e.n.i.s wine, the other jar and the cloth bag were a gift from the elder old man when he decided to come back.

“Their local product? Hmmm, let"s take a look.”

After opening the rough black jar, a sweet wine aroma started spreading across the whole room. Even though Bai Yang doesn"t really drink, he actually had a feeling that he was about to get drunk just by smelling the sweet aroma…..

Hmmm? Isn"t this the same wine that knocked me unconscious? 

Bai Yang was entirely stunned after seeing the jade green wine in the jar, he never expected that the local product was this wine. However, he still remembered clearly about how he started having a nose bleed and fainted after drinking just a bowl of this wine, so he hurriedly put it aside and sealed it back up.

He then turned his attention towards the cloth bag that was wrapped up like a mummy, removed the layers of cloth and something fell out from the bag. 

“Holy s.h.i.+t…. This… this is the legendary ginseng….?”

Staring right at the dried radish-looking object, Bai Yang"s mind was empty right now.

This was because this thing on the ground was so famous that even a noob like him managed to recognize it instantly.

To be frank, a ginseng was not so much of a big deal, but when the ginseng was about a meter long and full of roots, Bai Yang could tell that this was the real deal, a real wild ginseng. Its age and price were things Bai Yang did not know but he knew that this thing would definitely cost an arm and a leg.

s.h.i.+t, this thing can easily be sold at the price of million and I actually threw it aside like garbage?

Fine, Bai Yang would never think of himself as a brat who did not know the hards.h.i.+p of earning money, so there was only one thought in his mind, which was that his “neighbor” barbarians were all sitting on a gold mountain, just a ginseng alone had already made him rich.

He whipped out his phone and noticed that it was three in the afternoon. He was satisfied with his efficiency of moving out and he changed his plans right away given the amount of time left for him.

I have no use of keeping this ginseng with me, the best way out is to turn it into money. But if I sell it to the drugstore, I would be an idiot. Auctioning it away is definitely the best way to hit max value. I will definitely lose a bit of money, but auctioning it is reliable and safe. Hmmm, the jar of wine is definitely something else as well, to be able to gift it to me like the ginseng, I should send it to be appraised….

Looking at the jar of wine and the ginseng, Bai Yang quickly made up his mind.

And that was when he suddenly realized that he was very busy, even though he was more than just free a few days ago….

One by one, it did not take more than three seconds for Bai Yang to reschedule. He first went home to get the saw, sent the ginseng to the auction and the wine to the quality inspection office during the trip back home. He also managed to grab a meal at home before leaving with his saw.

Perfect!

With that said, Bai Yang started looking up for the closer auctions and quality inspection office. For the quality inspection office, it belonged to the government so there wouldn"t be much of a problem, all he had to pay was just a little bit of money and everything would be done under rules and regulations. The auction, however, was a different matter. But that did not trouble Bai Yang, all he had to look for the most well-known one, which would indirectly protect his safety because larger companies tended to care for their reputation. Hence, it would be safe as long as he went for the largest auction.

After finding himself the customer service hotline of Million Treasures PaG.o.da, the largest auction house in Suzhou, he dialed it up right away. The one who picked up his call was a lady, whose voice was absolutely a melody. He told her that he would be arriving in about an hour"s time to deliver something to be auctioned and his request was granted right away, all he had to do was head over there with the ginseng.

d.a.m.n, this quality is really good, no wonder its the largest auction chain in the country! A scenario where the guests are being looked down on by the employees did not even happen. But then again, jobs are not as easy as they used to be now. s.c.r.e.w.i.n.g up right now is just like strengthening the enemy"s strength, so no bosses would tolerate employees who have a bad att.i.tude.

While murmuring in his heart, Bai Yang swiftly pulled out a stainless steel bottle from the outdoor gear case, opened the jar and poured about 30ml of the jade green wide into it before departing from his villa.

Security-wise, Bai Yang was pretty satisfied, so he was entirely fine with leaving the tiger p.e.n.i.s wine and G.o.d knows what wine in the villa. The only problem was that it was not easy to get a cab around this area, it took him 10 minutes to reach the main road outside…..

Oh my G.o.d, I can"t always walk out like that, can I? I can"t afford four wheels but two wheels? I believe I can.

Seeing a motorcycle retailer right opposite of the street, an idea popped up in Bai Yang"s mind.

There were all sorts of motorcycles in the shop, but as someone who always bought something based on emotions and feelings, Bai Yang soon quickly became captivated by the superbike that really stood out.

“29,000 RMB? Since when can a two-wheel be so expensive?”

Enduring the heartache, Bai Yang swiped his card and, after plenty of negotiations, got himself a full tank for the bike. He rode off into the wind on the black superbike.

“Rich boy, he did not even ask when buying the almost 30k bike,`” sighed the shop owner satisfyingly.

But Bai Yang was thinking the other way round, in his mind, his time was more than just precious. There was no point in asking for a discount as the ginseng he had auctioned off was worth more than the shop and the bikes combined, so there was really no need to fret…..

But Bai Yang was also not someone who was not bothered about anything, it was just that clinging onto so many minor things would only wear one out in a long run, one should always try to keep the broad perspective in mind.

It was still working hours, but Bai Yang, who was on the bike, charged around, there was nothing more comfortable than riding a superbike in such hot weather. In just ten minutes" time, he was already at the branch of Million Treasures PaG.o.da.

Indeed the largest chain in the country, this branch rented two entire levels in the thirty-level office building. Because he had already made a reservation, Bai Yang was led right into a large meeting room.

Not bothering with engaging in plat.i.tudes with the manager, Bai Yang threw the ginseng onto the table and sat right back onto the sofa, after leaving a message that expressed his trust towards the company.

When the beauty manager saw the ginseng, her mind went blank and she started making a call. After half an hour and a few cups of drinks, a bunch of old men charged right into the room….

Things were simple after that, they started appraising the ginseng right in front of Bai Yang, recording the whole process. Under the witness of a lawyer, both sides signed an agreement.

The ginseng would be auctioned in an auction at the end of the month and Bai Yang would receive his payment after that.

Bai Yang did not bother much about the appraisal since it was going to be auctioned off anyway, but he was satisfied when he saw a condition where the opposite side agreed to compensate Bai Yang with 8 million unconditionally, should something happen to the ginseng.

These old men are really pitiful, it"s like they saw their father when they see the ginseng, is the ginseng really that good? Why do I feel nothing at all?
