Chapter 1064

Abulaiti's words moved Li Long a little. This person was also a straightforward man, though of course, it was also possible that he had been cheated miserably, so in the presence of Li Long, a relatively generous buyer, this Uyghur captain was also showing his own generosity.

Li Long thought for a moment and said to Abulaiti: "How about this, I'll pay for the things I bought earlier first. As for the things here, I'll pick and choose. I'll take what's useful, and you can just sweep away what's useless as trash. If I don't pick them, I'm afraid others probably won't think they're of any use either."

"Alright, alright, alright, let's do it that way," Abulaiti said with a smile.

For the medicinal herbs like Fritillaria, Codonopsis, and deer antlers, as well as skins and other things collected earlier, Li Long calculated the total price for Abulaiti to be over eighty-one thousand yuan.

Currently, hundred-yuan banknotes hadn't appeared in the county bank yet, so Li Long was still carrying a large handbag, and inside the bag were stacks of ten-yuan 'Great Unity' notes.

He took out the stacks of money and counted them together with Captain Abulaiti. Abulaiti's eyes went straight as he looked at that money.

Although the things accumulated earlier were also quite a lot, he had never received so much money from the person who collected things earlier.

Sighing. After counting the money, Li Long took out a notebook and registered the things collected from here one by one, including the variety, quality, etc., and the unit price, and then asked Abulaiti to sign.

After signing, Li Long handed the money to the other party. Abulaiti also very solemnly put the money away, and then also found a notebook and asked Li Long to sign a receipt.

For the first transaction, both sides attached great importance to this, and it could be considered cautious, so both sides agreed on this point.

After the money was put away and the things were loaded onto the car, Li Long started to search in the last warehouse.

"Comrade Li Long, do you want me to find someone to help you?" Captain Abulaiti asked.

"Yes, please." Li Long smiled and said, "I'm looking for useful things in this big pile of stuff. You find two people to help me hold the pockets. It's best to find two bags; I want to pack them by category."

"Alright, alright." Abulaiti immediately called over two young men, one Kazakh and one Han, and these two people held two bags beside Li Long.

"Alright, Comrade Li Long, I'll go deposit the money first. With so much money here with me, I'm a bit uneasy," Abulaiti said to Li Long. "I'll be back in a while. Don't leave yet. I'll treat you to a meal in a while, something delicious!"

Li Long nodded. It was indeed almost mealtime now. After doing such a big business, eating a meal was eating a meal.

After Abulaiti left, Li Long started to pick and choose here. He first picked up the Yuan Datou silver dollars and those copper coins with decent appearance, as well as various copperware that wasn't very seriously rusted, and put them into the bag.

Just these things filled nearly one-third of a bag. Mainly, there was quite a lot of copperware; incense burners, Buddha statues, lamps, and various other things were all there, big and small, and they were all quite heavy.

Among them was a Buddha statue, a Thousand-Hand Guanyin, which looked quite good in appearance, somewhat similar to the Yuan Dynasty style mentioned by Li Long in a certain treasure appraisal program in his previous life.

Of course, regardless of whether it was true or false, after all, Li Long had only seen similar ones, and he couldn't possibly remember everything he had seen in his previous life.

Mainly, the rust on this Buddha statue wasn't very serious. If a professional could be found to repair it, it should be very good. Furthermore, this Buddha statue should have been gilded; there were gold stripes on it, but now it was unknown whether they had been scraped off or had fallen off due to the long time.

There was also a candlestick, which also carried exquisite patterns and those kinds of characters like small seal script. He couldn't understand them, but having characters indicated that it had great research value, so this definitely had to be taken.

Those silver dollars weren't of the same quality either; there were all kinds of inscriptions on them. In short, they should have some value, so he collected them all.

After collecting these things, looking at the big pile of stuff, Li Long didn't want the iron swords, machetes, and the like that were more seriously rusted. He guessed that these things were highly likely to be the batch-type ones used by bandits like Osman decades ago, and they shouldn't have any value.

Pushing these things to one side, Li Long found a quite heavy mask from this pile of stuff. The mask was stained with quite a lot of dirt and had bumps on it. Li Long wiped it, and then put it into the bag. These weren't bumps; damn it, these were gems!

It wasn't wiped particularly clean; he would deal with it when he went back.

Then, in the miscellaneous things below, he picked out colored stones one by one.

What Li Long could recognize were agate, turquoise, etc. The sizes weren't small, egg-sized, and they even had holes. He didn't know where they were originally hung. They didn't look like things people wore; the rope should have broken after a long time, leaving only the beads.

"Comrade Li Long, you like these colored stone beads? Actually, there were quite a lot of them before, and some cadres here took some away for the kids to play with," Abulaiti appeared beside him again, not knowing when, and said as he watched Li Long pick and choose these things:

"When we find more, next time you come, I'll get them for you."

"Good, these things are quite beautiful," Li Long replied and continued to rummage.

Things like turquoise and agate weren't very valuable now, and even after another twenty years, they wouldn't be very valuable, but after another forty years, they would start to be valuable.

Anyway, they were right at hand, so he would just pick them up and keep them.

In this "trash heap," there were also some jade artifacts, some broken, some relatively complete. Li Long picked two jade plaques and two things suspected to be gold plaques.

They were quite dirty, but very heavy in the hand; they needed careful cleaning to know.

A big pile of stuff, and the two fertilizer bags weren't even full. Li Long felt the rest was trash.

Of course, actually, they might have value, but they would need to be repaired by experts to know. Li Long wasn't really a junk collector, so he didn't want them.

After loading these two bags of things onto the car, Abulaiti called Li Long and the others to go to the team headquarters for a meal.

Hand-grabbed meat seemed to be their essential, and then there was barbecue, and there was also wine.

At noon, Li Long didn't drink much. He also told Abulaiti that with tens of thousands of yuan worth of things in the car, he had to stay sober. Abulaiti also agreed with this point.

For the first cooperation, both sides were quite satisfied. For a meal, Li Long and his driver, and the three team cadres from the Huxian Forestry Team, mixed Uyghur, Kazakh, and Mandarin together. What made these team cadres very happy was that no matter what was said, Li Long could understand.

This made them very happy. The team cadres said repeatedly that Comrade Li Long was truly a model of ethnic unity, and they recognized this model.

Li Long left the phone number of the purchasing station and asked them to call him again when the things collected here were about the same, and he would come to collect the goods then.

Abulaiti sent Li Long to the car with a flushed face, and after waving to watch the car leave, he said to the team cadres:

"Let's go, divide the money!"

Like Captain Aili's side, most of the income from the things collected here was registered and turned over, but the remaining part that could be distributed to the team was also quite considerable.

This time it was about the same as the things sold last time, but the money obtained was nearly a quarter more, so the money the team could keep was quite a lot more. This was also the reason why these team cadres were exceptionally happy.

Of course, those forest rangers who participated in the confiscation of materials would also receive a portion of the money, and these were all registered.

It was about the same.

When Li Long returned to the county with the truck, it was only a little past five in the afternoon. There were still quite a lot of people at the purchasing station at this time. The twenty or so people in line made way when the car entered the courtyard. Through the car window, Li Long could see that these people were carrying not only Fritillaria, but also deer antlers, and there were even dried wild mushrooms being weighed on the counter.

Gu Bo Yuan knew that Li Long had gone to the neighboring county to collect things, so after the car entered the courtyard of the purchasing station, he let Sun Jia Qiang, who was beside him, go to the back to help Li Long, and he could manage here by himself.

In the backyard, Liang Shuang Cheng was trimming the stems of the dried wild mushrooms. Seeing the car enter, he hurriedly cleared the space, and after the car was parked, he hurriedly helped unload the things.

Sun Jia Qiang and Liang Shuang Cheng were also surprised while unloading the things; the things Li Long brought back this time were quite a lot!

Li Long followed to unload the things. By the time he drove back, the alcohol had already disappeared; he hadn't drunk much to begin with.

After unloading the car and letting the driver drive the car back to report, he took the notebook to the front to register with Gu Bo Yuan.

Since there was a partner in doing business, it should be more formal.

"Yo, quite a lot of things were brought back this time!" Gu Bo Yuan looked at the things put into storage and said with a smile, "Not bad, not bad. Now that so many things have come in, we can let Boss Jia come over earlier."
