Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 114: Not a rise, but a revival!

Ximen Lang's expenses during this period were really high.

How big is it?
The average daily expenditure is at least several million, or even more than tens of millions!
In the past, Ximen Lang would spend over 10,000 yuan a day. Unless he bought anything big, he didn’t know how to spend it.

Now, even if you give him 100 million a day, if you are careless, he may not be able to use it in a day!
Especially after making up his mind to help the world of Sijiucheng solve some practical problems, he spent money without counting!
Like flowing water, I finally sold a few things and earned tens of millions. I thought I could finally save some money in my pocket this time.

Just buying a dozen machines can easily cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars.

It couldn't even last three days, and all the money was spent by Ximen Lang!
Especially some large special equipment, even if Ximen Lang bought second-hand or even old items that had been passed down many times.

But as long as this thing can be repaired and still be used, the price will definitely be a sky-high price that Ximen Lang would never even look at before!

What's the key?
The key point is that after spending a huge amount of money to buy it, Ximen Lang still felt that he got it at a cheap price.

There's no way to reason with this!

If we buy things worth hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in large quantities without blinking an eye, won’t we have enough money?
It is no exaggeration to say that Ximen Lang was so driven by these machines that he even wanted to go to the bank to borrow money with these antiques and furniture!
It has been more than a week, and apart from buying a new U8 car as a means of transportation in the city, he was not willing to have anyone modify the Studebaker that Bai Ling gave him!

He used to be a super rich man, but now he lives like a poor guy!

How could Ximen Lang, who always regarded himself as the great official Ximen, tolerate this?
Especially since the old pits have not been filled yet, and new pits have been filled to help update various equipment.

Life is becoming increasingly unbearable!
So, decisively, while he could still hold on for a few more days, Ximen Lang quickly asked for help from the all-purpose tool man Bai Ling.

"Bai Ling, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I'm almost out of food just to get these machines. I'm really at my wit's end, so could you please bring me some more good stuff?"

"Let me get through this section first. We can talk about the rest after we're through this stage."

After hearing Ximen Lang's embarrassing words, Bai Ling realized the seriousness of the problem.

I saw that Ximen Lang was in a dilemma of almost running out of food!

This is much more serious than the problem of lack of talent!
He immediately regarded this matter as a top priority that needed to be resolved, and pulled Ximen Lang to his office.

He walked to the safe sponsored by Ximen Lang, which was placed at the innermost part. After some twists and turns, he opened the safe directly in front of Ximen Lang.

He signaled Ximen Lang to help, and the two of them worked together to move the small box out of the safe.

After finally moving out this small box that looked small but was actually very heavy, Ximen Lang was so tired that he was about to wonder.

"What is this? It's so small and so heavy."

Then I heard Bai Ling reply.

"Didn't you say you were barely making ends meet? It needs to be convenient, quick, and sell quickly. The only thing that meets those conditions is gold."

"Gold? You mean, this box is filled with gold?!"

Seeing that Ximen Lang still didn't believe it, he took out another key and directly opened the small box in front of him.

Then, Ximen Lang, who had never seen so much gold before, was stunned by the gold in front of him.

At the same time, his hands touched it uncontrollably.

Then, for some reason, as he was feeling around, Ximen Lang started taking the gold and stuffing it into his pocket.

Until Bai Ling on the side couldn't help but look down on him.

"Can you be a little more ambitious? Now that I have taken it out, there is no reason to take it back. I have already told you clearly that all this gold is given to you. Who are you still acting like this for?" This is exactly the case, because what Ximen Lang wants to do is to help the world of Sijiu City establish a complete industrial system.

Even if those machines were priced at dirt low in the eyes of the world of Sijiu City, they would be no different from the price of cabbage.

But no matter how cheap the price is, once it rises to the level of the entire nation and the entire country.

The amount of money he would need would be an astronomical figure.

But relying on Bai Ling alone and Sister Mei alone can only provide a drop in the bucket, so it is necessary to prepare more hard currency such as gold to deal with emergencies.

These golds, approved by the higher authorities and moved directly from the national treasury by Lao Luo's men, were the reserve funds specially prepared by the Sijiu City World for Ximen Lang.

As soon as Ximen Lang indicates that the money is not enough, it will be taken out immediately to fill the hole.

"This is just the first batch. Take it back and use it first. Tomorrow... No, tonight I will..."

"Write a letter to Sister Mei? No, Sister Mei has so many good things at home! I can never move them all."

"How is that possible?! Even if Sister Mei has so many good things, they should have been used up by now. But they are not much different from what Sister Mei gave me."

Ximen Lang was so confused after hearing this, Bai Ling continued.

"In short, you just need to remember that Sister Mei is not an exception. Unbeknownst to you, there are thousands and thousands of Sister Meis who are willing to abandon their families and careers and contribute everything to the rise of the Forty-Nine City world."

"And I happen to know a lot of these Sister Meis! And Hao Pingchuan, he knows quite a few too! Not to mention Lao Luo, he knows the most of us!"

"So much so that my sister-in-law often kicks him out of the house or makes him sleep on the sofa. Do you understand what I mean?"

Bai Ling has said this much, if Ximen Lang still doesn't understand, he would be really stupid.

"It's the same old routine. I won't ask where it comes from, so you don't ask where it comes from either. What's so unclear about this?"

"But Lao Luo, do you really know so many people that he can make my sister-in-law jealous to this extent? He really is a pervert!"

Bai Ling couldn't help but curl her lips after watching all the arrangements.

I couldn't help but look forward to the wonderful expression that would appear on Lao Luo's face after he knew all this.

"But there is one thing you said that is still not accurate."

"what?"

"That is, we are not rising, but returning to the position that originally belonged to us and completing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation."

A strong sense of self-confidence that was completely different from this era made Bai Ling seem to see the light again.

I couldn't help but begin to yearn for the world described by Ximen Lang.

As a result, Ximen Lang, who had been chasing her to make her angry, became much more pleasing to the eye.

"Then shall we work together towards this goal?"

"Of course, don't we always do that?"
