Chapter 134 Mysterious Box
When Li Yue returned home, he received an unexpected call.
The person Zerafa called was the one whose house was haunted and in whose house Li Yue encountered the devil.
Li Yue thought that his interactions with him ended there.
I didn't expect that he actually got his phone number.
"Zerafa, how do you have my phone number?"
Zerafa was a little embarrassed and said, "I got your phone from Raymont."
Li Yue was a little confused. Why did Raymont give his phone number to Zerafa?
He should know that he doesn't like strangers calling him.
Although theoretically he and Zerafa knew each other, he had already made his attitude clear by not leaving his contact information last time.
"John, I found something special in the cellar at home. I wonder if you might be interested."
"What's something special?"
"I'm not sure either. It might be related to the demon we encountered before," said Zerafa.
Li Yue thought for a moment, then said, "I'll come see you tomorrow."
"Then I wait for you."
After hanging up the phone, Li Yue went to soak in the swimming pool.
At this moment, Ron arrived at the Top Manor.
Ron was familiar with the place and was brought to Li Yue by Xiong Da.
Ron didn't even change his clothes and walked straight into the swimming pool.
"John, long time no see."
Li Yue embraced Ron, kissed him passionately for a moment, and then asked, "I heard that you resigned from Raymond. What have you been busy with recently?"
"I'm currently doing cross-border trade."
Li Yue widened his eyes in disbelief.
He knew that Ron was a man of ideas, and he also knew that Ron was very hands-on, including when they were talking about love.
However, cross-border trade is a rather complicated industry that requires considerable professional knowledge.
This is not an industry that can be carried out just by having money.
Li Yue looked at Ron with scrutiny.
"you sure?"
"Last year, sales of Mexican chili sauce in America reached 30 million cans. I visited major supermarkets throughout Los Angeles and found that many shelves were out of stock. I estimate there is still a considerable gap in demand. The reason why Mexican chili sauce is always out of stock is because manufacturers are running low on raw materials."
"So you have a solution to the problem of insufficient raw materials?"
"To put it bluntly, a large amount of land is used to grow hemp, squeezing out agricultural land. Chili peppers are not a mainstay crop, so the share allocated to them is even smaller. That's why I plan to export Mexican peppers to Mexico."
"Wait... let me sort this out." Li Yue scratched his hair. "You want to export Mexican peppers to Mexico?"
"That's right." Ron nodded.
"Have you calculated the customs duties and shipping costs?"
"I've calculated that Mexico's agricultural import tariffs range from 0% to 20%. However, chili peppers are an agricultural product in urgent need in Mexico, so they are exempt from tariffs. Therefore, we only need to calculate the transportation cost, which averages $26 per ton, accounting for 4.5% of the cost."
“Even if they’re the same variety, do chili peppers grown in America taste the same as chili peppers grown in Mexico?”
"I asked someone to make some chili sauce, and the taste is almost the same."
"So how much is the profit?" Li Yue asked again.
"After deducting costs, we can make about $300 per ton."
"Looks good."
"John, I want you to lend me some money. I have ordered 2 tons of goods, but I don't have enough money to purchase them." Ron looked at Li Yue with watery eyes, as if they were about to melt in the next moment.
"How much does it cost?"
"Twenty million dollars."
"Okay." Li Yue replied.
"Thank you." Ron put his arms around Li Yue's neck.
The two of them made love in the swimming pool, and Ron was very cooperative.
The next day, before Ron left, Li Yue gave her another expensive necklace.
Li Yue slowly got up, washed, and had breakfast, enjoying a leisurely life.
It was not until the afternoon that Li Yue arrived at Zerafa's doorstep leisurely.
knock knock --
Zerafa opened the door and saw Zerafa again. He looked much more energetic, at least not as unkempt as last time.
"John, here you come, come in." Zerafa invited Li into the house.
After Li Yue sat down on the sofa, Zerafa hurried to the basement and took out a wooden box that looked quite old.
The wooden box was pitch black, and the lid was engraved with a lifelike demon relief, which was very similar to the big demon that Li Yue had killed.
Zerafa put the box in front of Li Yue and looked at him with burning eyes.
"What's in here?"
"I don't know, I can't open it," Zerafa said.
Li Yue looked at Zerafa: "So what do you mean?"
"One hundred thousand dollars and this box will be yours." Zerafa was still a little nervous when he said this.
After all, he didn't know whether Li Yue was willing to accept this price.
"Okay." Li Yue nodded.
Then Li Yue set his eyes on the box. Li Yue did not rush to open the box, but scanned it with his telekinesis.
The material of this box is neither wood nor metal, and it emits some kind of weak energy.
Li Yue reached out and grabbed the box, trying to open it.
But the box was clearly not locked, but it could not be opened.
"It's useless. I tried. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't open it. And I didn't dare to destroy the box with violence." Zerafa wanted to preserve the value of the box, so he was unwilling to open it violently.
But Li Yue did not have this worry, so Li Yue's power gradually increased.
At this moment, all the electrical appliances in the house began to flicker, and the lights, TV, and the mobile phones on the two of them all began to go out of control.
Zerafa was so scared that he hid behind the sofa and stuck his head out to look at Li Yue.
The box in Li Yue's hand also made a buzzing sound, as if it was fighting against Li Yue's power.
Li Yue was a little surprised. With his physical condition, the strength of his single arm could reach two thousand tons.
I couldn’t open the box right away. What was hidden in it?
Li Yue put down the box, then bought a physical enhancement potion from the system mall, and raised his physical fitness to 3.
He picked up the box again, pinched both ends of the box with both hands, and pulled it apart with force.
Rumbling--
When Li Yue wrestled with the box again, stronger fluctuations came from the box.
The surrounding glass was shattered and cracks appeared on the walls.
Zerafa was so scared that he covered his head and hid behind the sofa.
Li Yue's power grew stronger and stronger, and the vibrations became more and more intense.
Still unable to open it, Li Yue vaguely felt that the power of this box far exceeded the power of 3 physical strength.
In the end, Li Yue temporarily gave up the idea of opening the box and turned to look at the room that was destroyed because of him.
Li Yue took out his cell phone, luckily it was still working.
Li Yue transferred $200,000 to Zerafa.
"I'll go first." Li Yue waved his hand.
