When Shi Yi returned home, his parents had not gotten off work yet. After hiding the code box under his bed, Shi Yi leaned on the bed alone and began to think.

In his memory, China was still in the era of great reform and development in 1994. Countless well-known enterprises in later generations were founded during this period. There were many ways to make money, mainly depending on how Shi Yi arranged it.

Before his strength is mature, he can only do some industries he knows. Shi Yi doesn’t care about means, he only needs results!

He must get involved in the cosmetics industry. After all, with his current economic strength, cosmetics stores are undoubtedly the most suitable choice, and this is also a long-term business.

In Wenzhou in 1994, there were many companies, and there were many rich people, so Shi Yi was not worried about the cosmetics business. He had already made up the means of promoting cosmetics, but he did not believe that the marketing methods of later generations would not work in the era when the information was relatively closed in 1994!

"I almost forgot this!" After leaning on the bed for nearly half an hour, Shi Yi suddenly widened his eyes and jumped up from the bed!

"In 1994...In 1996..." Shi Yi kept repeating these two years, and a smile gradually appeared on his face: "There are two years left, which should be enough."

My parents came back at noon, and after lunch, they went out to work. Seeing the backs of their parents disappearing at the corner of the stairs, Shi Yi sighed lightly. If history had not changed because of the wings of his little butterfly, it would not be far from the day when his father was laid off...

Shi Yi, who had time in the afternoon, did not go to the cosmetics store of his third cousin Li Huizhu, but instead came to the Wenzhou antique market. In addition to 70% of the stores here, there are also handicrafts and jade raw materials for sale.

The market area is not large. Shi Yi estimated that it was only about one hectare, but the market was crowded with stores.

The transactions of antiques are quite popular, and some rich people will come here to buy raw materials for jade and then hand them over to craftsmen to carve and form according to their own wishes.

After wandering around the market for a long time, Shi Yi found a store on the edge of the market that looked pretty good. After hesitating for a moment, he walked in.

The store is not large, only about twenty square meters. At this moment, there are already more than a dozen customers in the store choosing the raw stones, and two young girls are introducing them to the customers.

"Little brother, what are you going to buy?" Just as Shi Yi was scanning the raw stones in the store, a woman's voice came from behind him. Shi Yi subconsciously turned around and saw a woman about thirty years old with light makeup on her face looking at him, with a smile on her face.

"I want to buy some jade materials." Shi Yi thought for a while and replied.

"What kind of jade material do you want to buy?" The woman looked at Shi Yi with interest. As the owner of this jade material store, she had been open for many years. She had never seen anyone younger than 20 buy jade material materials here. Basically, the people who come here are people over thirty years old.

"I want everything from bad to good ones." Shi Yi paused for a moment and added: "But the amount is not large."

"Even if the bad ones are good?" The woman looked at Shi Yi quite strangely, and nodded after confirming that he was not joking. At the same time, she said in confusion: "It's not much cheaper for cheap ones, but good jade is not cheap, you..."

"Don't worry, I've brought enough." Shi Yi naturally understood what the woman was worried about. After a faint smile, he said: "This time I'll just take a look and buy some as samples. The amount in the future should be quite large."

"Is it just a sample?" the woman smiled and said, "The scraps in the warehouse should be enough, and the price is much cheaper than the whole piece."

"Yes." Shi Yi nodded. The scraps were still whole, and it didn't matter to him. Anyway, they weren't going to take them back and appreciate them.

"Then come with me." The woman smiled at Shi Yi, and said to one of the girls who were introducing the raw stones: "Xiaohui, please take a look at the shop first. I'll take this little brother to the warehouse."

"I know Sister Wu." The girl agreed without raising her head, obviously she was already very familiar with this situation.

"What do you do with your little brother?" On the way to the warehouse, Sister Wu tapped sideways. After all, Shi Yi was too young.

"I'm still a student." Shi Yi smiled and said, "From No. 13 Middle School."

"I wonder if you buy these raw stones and go back?" Sister Wu asked with a smile.

"I'm not very clear. It was my uncle who asked me to buy it for him. You have to ask my uncle for details before you know."

"Oh. That's it." Sister Wu rolled her eyes and asked your uncle. I don't know if your uncle is human. How do you ask?

"Here, this is the warehouse." When Shi Yi arrived at the warehouse, Sister Wu bent down and raised the roller shutter door. Obviously, the warehouse door was not locked. There was only a light bulb in the warehouse, which seemed a little dim. It seemed that she could see Shi Yi's confusion. Sister Wu smiled and said, "The jade in the warehouse is relatively ordinary, and the good raw stones are placed elsewhere. Apart from ordinary raw stones, there are some carved scraps."

"Yes." Shi Yi nodded, but his eyes were glancing back and forth in the warehouse.

"The scraps you want are piled here." Sister Wu led Shi Yi to several large boxes and opened them. There was indeed a pile of scraps in it. Sister Wu looked at Shi Yi and said, "If you just take them back for samples, I suggest you only take the scraps from Qinghai White Jade first. If you want other ones, you can come and get them later."

"Yes." Shi Yi thought for a while and nodded and agreed. Looking at the Qinghai white jade filled with boxes, he looked up at Sister Wu and asked, "How much are these scraps?"

"Qinghai white jade has produced a lot in recent years." Sister Wu paused and said with a smile: "The current market price of green jade of ordinary quality is seven yuan per kilogram. As for these scraps, you can give it to you for three yuan per kilogram."

"Ah?!" Shi Yi was stunned in place, subconsciously yelling, which scared Sister Wu: "What? Is it too expensive?"

"Expensive?" A strange smile appeared on Shi Yi's face. He originally thought that the price of jade must be very expensive. After all, it would cost dozens of yuan to buy a jade pendant on the market, but he didn't expect that the scraps of jade would be so cheap, even... the whole piece of jade rough stone only costs seven yuan per kilogram?

"...Let's do it." Looking at the expression on Shi Yi's face, Sister Wu couldn't figure out the reason for it for a while. Seeing that Shi Yi didn't say anything, she smiled and said, "If you can ask your uncle to get goods from me in the future, the price will be cheaper. Today I will give you 2.51 kilograms. How much do you want?"

"I want ten kilograms of scraps." Shi Yi thought for a while and said, "In addition, I want a whole piece of raw stone."

"Okay." Sister Wu nodded, then bent down and started preparing.

Finally, Shi Yi proposed ten kilograms of scraps and a complete piece of green jade raw stone from the market. All of these were added up, which cost him less than a hundred yuan. Shi Yi was very satisfied.

After returning home, Shi Yi locked the door and untied the snakeskin bag containing scraps. Looking at the scraps inside with different shapes and uneven thicknesses, Shi Yi smiled on his face.

About one kilogram of scraps were taken out from the snakeskin bag, Shi Yi sat cross-legged and slowly closed his eyes...

The true energy in the dantian was mobilized and slowly circulated in the body. After about a minute, Shi Yi once again felt a cool and comfortable feeling coming from the palm of his hand. One kilogram of scraps almost supported Shi Yi's five-second cultivation time, which was in sharp contrast to the moment he accidentally discovered the use of jade!

"Huh..." The palms were gone, Shi Yi continued to move for a while before stopping, opened his eyes, looked at the jade powder on his palms and on his pants, and murmured: "One kilogram of jade lasts for five seconds, two kilograms last for ten seconds..."

Shi Yi calculated carefully. As the data grew bigger, Shi Yi's pupils couldn't help but shrink: "I'm short of money!"

According to Shi Yi's estimate, although the spiritual energy influx when absorbing jade was more than twenty times faster than from the world, it would take at least a year to practice from the early stage of body refining to the middle stage of body refining. If you calculate based on 365 days a year and eight hours of practice every day...

"Millions!" Shi Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head and sighed: "It seems that you have to hurry up and make money. This practice is simply burning money!"
