C41 (2/2)

Hearing that, Xu Yunfeng muttered: ”All that should come is here, everyone is here to join in the fun.”

Huang Kun didn't know what his master meant.

Shen Dexu concentrated on driving and did not say anything else. Half an hour later, the SUV arrived at the shore of Yanzhi Dam. Indeed, from a distance, he saw a lot of people surrounding him, and a sand digging boat was nearby.

Shen Dexu drove the car to the side of the crowd, and one of them shouted loudly: ”The leader is here, don't make any noise, everyone.”

Shen Dexu got off the car, and a group of sailors surrounded him, ”That's the leader, you still dare to be unreasonable?”

This group of people were very aggressive. It seemed like they were the workers who had dug up the sand ships.

”Where is the wood?” Xu Yunfeng asked directly.

”Yes, it's over there.” The staff member under Shen Dexu pointed towards the river bank more than ten meters away. There was a meter in diameter black wood lying horizontally on the beach, and a few sailors were sitting on it and smoking.

As for the staff who came to carry away the wood, they could only watch from the side. The tools and equipment were placed beside them, but they were unable to work.

Shen Dexu walked towards the wooden log, and when the sailors knew that Shen Dexu was a high official, they opened up a path. Shen Dexu walked as he asked his subordinates, ”How much did you talk about the price?”

”We paid thirty thousand.” The subordinate replied, ”They still think it's too little.”

”How much do they want?”

”One hundred thousand.”

”Didn't you tell them that this thing belongs to the state?” Shen Dexu frowned, ”Originally, we could only give them symbolic compensation. Thirty thousand is already not bad.”

Hearing this, the sailors at the side began to clamor, ”Who said a hundred thousand is not bad. This thing is in the Yangtze River, whoever fishes it will get it. They will use the country to pressure us. At most we'll burn this log. ”

Shen Dexu looked at the person who was bickering with him and said: ”If I burn it, it will damage the national assets, and I will go to jail.”

Huang Kun laughed in his heart. Both sides were playing tricks on each other, who didn't know that Gloomy Wood Flames couldn't burn?

While Shen Dexu and the sailors were talking, a few of them walked to the side of Gloomy Wood.

Shen Dexu looked at the wood carefully for a while, then said to the sailor on top of the horse: ”40,000, no more.”

”We worked hard to fish this thing up from the river bottom,” The sailor was determined to make a fortune, ”If it's less than 100,000, we won't sell it.”

Xu Yunfeng did not join Shen Dexu and the sailors in bargaining. He used his hand to stroke Gloomy Wood, then looked at the block of wood. He turned his head to Shende and shook his head, his expression not looking good. Shen Dexu was even more nervous when he saw this.

”Fifty thousand.” Shen Dexu began to speak again, ”We only have that much money, if you still want to persevere, when the other departments come, we will forcefully drag them away, and you can at most receive a prize of a few thousand dollars.”

This intimidated the sand-diggers, who gathered together and began to confer.

”I'll give you five minutes to think it over.” Shen Dexu had the power to intimidate even an official if he really wanted to. He then called one of his subordinates over, ”Tell me about the situation.”

”We were informed in the morning and heard that someone had picked up Gloomy Wood here. Weren't we always paying attention to this part of the river? So when we received the news, we immediately came and saw that they had dragged the log to the shore. They had dug this log out while digging sand. The sailors knew about Gloomy Wood, so they wanted to quickly get it ashore and sell it. Fortunately, we have people guarding the shore, otherwise, they would have really sold us out. ”

After five minutes, the sailors on the sand ship had yet to come to a decision. Shen Dexu panicked and asked the sailors, ”Where is your owner?”

One of the sailors said to Shen Dexu, ”If you have anything to tell me, tell me. The owner of the boat is not here.”

”Are you the captain?”

”I'm the chief engineer.”

Shen Dexu said to the chief engineer, ”Now I will give you a choice. You can either take away the fifty thousand or I will detain your boat. ”I still want the wood. I won't give you a single cent.”
