Chapter 290: A lot of jade
"Well, everyone's worked hard. Ye Zhen was very moved after seeing it. Because Ye Zhen stood in the sun for five or six minutes, his clothes were already soaked, not to mention the workers who had to work all afternoon and sometimes worked overtime at night, with brown and black skin, calloused hands, and helmets to earn money to support their families.
Ye Zhen wanted to see it for a while, but because the smoke and dust were too big, under the persuasion of the contractor, Ye Zhen went outside to see. Because it was very hot, I was tired and afraid of dark skin after standing for a few minutes. "Holy Venerable, let's go. Ye Zhen didn't like to go back to school sweating profusely, so he planned to leave, after all, the most important point is that there is no other difference when Ye Zhen is here.
I walked back for a while before getting on the Saint's Mercedes. "Xiao Ye, why don't I take you to a place? Or do you insist on going back to the community or school?" asked the Holy Venerable, then stopped the car and waited for Ye Zhen to answer. "Fine, let me say it, just go with you and see what you're talking about. "Curiosity is always something that a child has, so of course Ye Zhen wants to know what it is. In addition, the Holy Venerable will not harm himself, maybe it will be a surprise.
Soon the first traffic light arrived, and the front was there. Ye Zhen squinted and rested all the way, not paying too much attention to what was outside, so he didn't know. When I got out of the car, the big sign said 'Fuzhou Jade Market', if I told Ye Zhen to come here at the beginning, Ye Zhen would definitely refuse, but I came here, and it didn't hurt to go in and have a look.
This jade market is the same as the vegetable market, but it is safer than the vegetable market, quieter than the vegetable market, and cleaner than the vegetable market. There are brick-and-mortar stores one by one, but there are many of them, and they are all as far as the eye can see. The Holy Venerable was obviously a veteran, and took Ye Zhen through one house after another, and after a long way, stopped in front of an old shop. walked in, Ye Zhen followed. The seller inside was an old man with reading glasses, who looked no less than seventy years old, and did not have much hair, but some of them were gray.
"Coming?" the old man sat down with his cane, and of course let Shengzun and Ye Zhen sit down. "What's the matter with this visit?" the old man asked unhurriedly, little by little. "The main reason for coming this time is to bring my apprentice to open his eyes and buy two stones to go back......" Hearing this, Ye Zhen of course interrupted the Holy Venerable's speech without giving face. "I don't buy it. ”
It was embarrassing now, and the Holy Venerable didn't guess that Ye Zhen would not give him face like this, but he was also Ye Zhen's master. "You talk like that, I'll pay for it, and you'll watch. The Holy Venerable looked very respectful of the old man and didn't let Ye Zhen speak. The industry of stone cutting itself is blocking the life of the family, winning is to make more money, and if you lose, it is estimated that a stone is enough for you to pay a lot of money.
The old man laughed, revealing his lost teeth. "I just got a new stock, let's go. The old man stood up with his cane and walked slowly to the second floor. There is also a locked iron door on the second floor, which seems to be guarded very carefully. When you go up to the second floor, you will find a variety of stones. Ye Zhen didn't want to buy any of these stones, Ye Zhen felt that this was no different from ordinary stones, but one was sold for hundreds of thousands of millions of dollars, isn't it just a stone? Of course, grinding good things makes money, but what if it's an ordinary stone?
Ye Zhen didn't have any interest at all, of course, the Holy Venerable also saw it, so he let Ye Zhen go down to the first floor and pick it on the second floor himself. The Holy Venerable is more interested, and can be said to be a veteran. Touch this piece, ask the price, silently that piece, and see the purchase time. It took about twenty minutes before and after, and the Holy Venerable saw that the old man's face seemed to change slightly, so he said. "I've chosen, just this one and this one. "The Saint Venerable jumped two stones, both of which were not big or small.
However, the price will not be cheap, obviously there is not much difference between the two, one actually costs 120,000, and the other only costs 40,000, three times the difference. It's 160,000 in total, because there is no contract or IOU or anything in the stone-cutting world, and it's all about reputation. Therefore, the Venerable and the old man discussed that they would transfer money to the bank when they went back.
"What's going on?What are you doing up there?" Seeing the Holy Venerable coming down, Ye Zhen began to 'chase after him', and was asked by Ye Zhen, and the Holy Venerable said that it cost 160,000 yuan to buy two stones. "Isn't it? Master, two stones of 160,000, are you stupid? I'll go, I can't bear this. Ye Zhen shook his head, he really didn't know what to say.
However, Ye Zhen also knew that he was sure, and he didn't dare to say it directly, so he whispered in the ear of the Holy Venerable. After a while, the old man held the cane in one hand and the bag in the other, and handed it to the Holy Venerable. "In the future, it is often the case that I have goods here. It's all good, don't doubt it, remember that you have friends who can find me. "The old man also knows how to publicize, of course the Holy Venerable should be good.
After leaving this dilapidated jade shop, Ye Zhen followed the Holy Venerable to the door, and did not find any more dilapidated shops than this one, which was really distinctive. "Next, we're going to find someone to grind the stones, these two stones were specially picked out by me, I have nothing to say!" Shengzun smiled and found a shop specializing in grinding stones, which is also in the 'Fuzhou Jade Mall', this mall not only has a jade shop, but also a grinding stone shop, as well as a shop that grinds out jade to exchange cash, all of which are among them.
Shengzun is also familiar with finding a grinding stone shop, looking at the appearance of the boss, he seems to be very familiar with Shengzun. "It's in stock again today, haven't you been here for a long time? "The boss this time looks like he's only in his early forties, much younger than the previous one, but he also looks sophisticated. The Holy Venerable walked in very politely, and Ye Zhen followed. After sitting in it for a while and drinking tea, the boss of course cut to the chase. "Boss Sheng, isn't he just here to drink tea? there must be something good today, take it out and take a look. ”
The Lord took out the forty thousand stones. "Grind, grind for me. The boss happily took the stone, although the stone was not the boss's own, but the process of grinding the stone needs thousands, in fact, the grinding process is very simple, so the interest from it is very large. The profit margins are large, and the work of grinding stones is also done.
The boss grinded half of the 40,000 stones, and there was no trace of emerald green, or black plate stones. "Isn't it?" the Venerable frowned, barely squeezing out a smile to face the boss. After five minutes, the whole stone had been ground down to a useful outline. "I estimate this stone myself, it should be 50,000 yuan, but the quality of this grinding is very poor, just this point, at most 2,000 yuan. ”
The Venerable smiled awkwardly and took a few small pieces of polished stone, with a little emerald green in the middle. After asking about the grinding stone, the cost cost was one thousand six. Because the Saint Venerable was very embarrassed, the second stone Saint Venerable planned to change stores. "I see the grinding stone technology here is the same, if it's a good thing, it's a good thing, and if it's not a good thing, you can't do anything. "The grinding stone technology here should be unified to be normal, just that stone, 40,000 yuan for a little emerald green, it's really not worth it.
Of course, the Venerable often played here, so he quickly found a second one. The boss of the second house was relatively cold, and he didn't invite the Holy Venerable to tea, but took the 120,000 stones and ground them in front of Ye Zhen and the Holy Venerable. "I don't think this stone is very good, and if it is really not good, it is not my own hands. "Now there are many merchants who use ordinary stones instead of jadeite after seeing it, but this industry mainly depends on reputation.
Ye Zhen didn't pay much attention last time, because he really wasn't interested. This time, Ye Zhen was really bored, so he stared. "Don't stare at it, if you have it, if you don't stare at it, you won't have it. "The Holy Venerable made his own tea and drank it himself. Soon the results came out, and the boss walked out with two bags of clear bags.
"Luckily, this jadeite is estimated to have a lot of price. This bag is it, this bag is useless. "Because the amount of jadeite grinding this time is more, it will test the skill more, and it cost three thousand yuan. "I don't think it's certain that you should do this, but I think being the owner of a millstone shop is a test to make a fortune. "It's more than 3,000 at a time, and there is no need for employees in the store, so there are tens of thousands a day.
"You're thinking too much, you still need to follow me a little more in this industry, let's go see who wants this thing. The Holy Venerable wrapped it tightly and walked into the only store in the entire Fuzhou Jade Mall. There are not many people inside, but there are more people than the previous store, because this one is the only one that sells jade, and the store is also large, so there will naturally be no fewer people.
The Lord came to the front desk and asked for a professional machine appraisal. The first time I sent it was a little bit of jade ground out of 40,000 yuan of jade. If it is sold to the store, there is still a little bit of jade jade in the store and the price of five thousand, which is more than what the boss said just now. Of course, the owner of the store said that this price is the most in Fuzhou, and the most price in the genuine store is estimated to be this, of course, excluding the sky-high price offered by private transactions.
40,000 for 5,000, this is not cost-effective, it is better to make a necklace by yourself. The second stone was put up, and the boss's eyes were straight, but the boss, who had seen a lot of good things, of course did not dare to show that he had not seen the world. As a result, the price of jade in the market floats between 300,000 and 700,000 yuan, and if there is a desirable buyer, the price may be higher. The cost of the leftover stone is also 20,000 yuan.
Since there is such a high price, of course, the Holy Venerable will not sell the jade, and the first stone is sold to grind the useless stone and the second stone to grind the useless stone. The two bosses bought it for twenty-one thousand five hundred. The remaining two pieces of jade Saint Venerable, which were very expensive, were taken home.
took the car back, but the Holy Venerable did not take Ye Zhen back to Ye Zhen's community by himself, but took him to a thirty-story building. "I bought a one-bedroom room on this floor, the price is not expensive, usually it is my own private paradise, of course, I don't take him to ordinary people. "Take the elevator up, the room is very ordinary, the decoration is also very ordinary, there is an LCD TV, a room with a computer and a bed, it is all available.
