Fansen Office.

Just after ten o'clock, Secretary Lin knocked on the door and came in and said, "Manager Yan's father is here to visit." ”

Molly's eyes were slightly startled, looking at Ji Linchuan, he smiled, left his seat, and turned around: "You stay here first." ”

Ji Linchuan took Secretary Lin to greet him at the elevator in person.

Yan Lao is wearing a traditional cotton and linen button-up suit, although he is old, but his style should not be underestimated, because of Yan Tong's connection two days ago, he has seen Ji Linchuan, and Yan Lao did not have too many polite greetings today.

After indulging in skills for many years and living abroad for a long time, Yan Gui doesn't know most of the celebrities in business, especially a young second-generation boss like Ji Linchuan, he has never heard of it.

In the past few days since Yan Gui returned to China, his friend who is also a keen gemstone lover heard that Fansen intended to recruit him, and inevitably revealed a lot of rumors about this season to him.

In particular, Ji Linchuan's record in gambling stones, as well as several large auction companies that rely on the rare jadeite and diamonds provided by Fansen every year, are rumored to be rare good things.

How many treasures were still hidden in Fansen's vault, Yan Gui was really interested and wanted to see it with his own eyes.

also because he had declined the kindness of being solicited the day before yesterday, this time he came to Yan Lao and said straight to the point, "I don't take advantage of others, since I plan to come to see your things today, Mr. Ji should also put forward some conditions." ”

"Where, I invited you to visit, and it is my honor to have you here. Ji Linchuan looked at the time and said, "I just got a batch of good goods today, and I ask you to give it a look." ”

Secretary Lin escorted the three of them into the elevator and consciously stayed on the top floor.

Fansen's raw material warehouse is located in the underground of the whole building, the entire security system is at the same level as the bank next to it, and it is not ordinary employees who can enter and exit the warehouse, each of which has been closely investigated and monitored, and the bank account and even the family relationship are within the controllable range, and only a few reliable employees can access high-end gemstones.

Ji Linchuan took the two of them into a metallic corridor, the light inside was sufficient, even more dazzling than the sunlight outside, the corridor was more than thirty meters long, and at the end was an anti-theft door, which was entered by a password.

As soon as I stepped in, there were a few staff members who were doing the finishing work inside, and they bowed when they saw Mr. Ji.

"Done?" he asked, referring to one of the middle-aged men with white gloves.

"Yes, there will be a batch of topaz from South Africa in a few days, and when the goods arrive, they will be able to be put into storage. ”

"Okay, you can finish today. ”

"Yes, Mr. Ji. The man led the rest of the staff out of the vault quickly.

In the space of more than 100 square meters, every one meter, there is a glass display case, although the jadeite placed on it is a mid-end level such as hibiscus species and gold silk species, but the size is not small, and there are some freshly mined tourmaline stones, colorless crystal stones of average weight.

Although Yan Tong did not have decades of contact and understanding of gemstones like her father, she could also see that this was just a place to store ordinary raw materials.

Sure enough, Ji Linchuan guided Yan Lao to the other side, and there was a door around the corner, which required Ji Linchuan's fingerprints, passwords, and unique keys to operate together to open it.

As soon as he walked in, Yan Lao's eyes widened instantly, and the first thing that came into sight was a dazzling pigeon's blood ruby, an untreated loose stone raw material, if it was processed and cut separately, it should be able to make a twenty-carat best ring, if it was divided into three pieces and set on the same necklace, if it was well designed, it would be a sky-high price to sell.

Yan Tong, like his father, was completely amazed by the rare gems placed here.

What she saw was a piece of tanzanite, a rare gemstone found only in an area of more than 20 square kilometers in East Africa, except that it was not a raw material, but a finished product that had been cut into a special heart shape.

Ji Linchuan said to Yan Tong, "I bought it back at an auction in Hong Kong a few years ago, and it looks good, but the price of tanzanite at that time was not as sharp as it is now, which is a leak." ”

Yan Gui took out the glasses in his pocket, regardless of wiping the mirror, his trembling hands took a long time to put them on, he pointed to the dark blue jade in a glass safe, and asked, "This...... This is the best Smurf, right?"

Yan Tong thought for a while, and asked Ji Linchuan curiously, "I remember that the ring you bought at the auction last time was also like this, in terms of value, you can process ten rings like this from this raw material, why do you have to pay a high price to buy that?"

Ji Linchuan put his hands in his pockets and explained, "Like you, there are reasons why you can't give up." ”

Yan Tong's eyes were a little complicated, and the time his gaze stayed on his face was a bit long.

Fortunately, Ji Linchuan didn't pay attention, he just had to explain the origin of this jadeite to Yan Lao, saying that it was gambled in a gambling stone market in Myanmar ten years ago, which is also a piece of jadeite with his best record over the years.

Yan Gui sighed, now it is estimated that it is difficult to find a second top-grade jadeite of this size.

Walking forward, the glass case displays a brilliant and colorful opal stone.

This is a rare black opal on the market, Ji Linchuan saw that Yan Lao was very interested, so he put on white gloves and handed Yan Gui a pair, then entered the password, opened the square glass cabinet, took out the dark gem the size of an egg, and put it in Yan Gui's hand.

Ji Linchuan pointed at it and said, "I don't need to say more, you also know where it came from." ”

"Yes, it's a unique Australian gemstone. ”

"I have a lot of white opals here, but the number of exported gemstones is strictly regulated, and I don't like to deal with them, so I plan to reduce the purchase of opals, so I will keep this one. ”

Yan Gui looked at the strange and vague colors on it, he was really amazed, a pair of eyes could not be taken away, and he looked at it for a long time before handing it over to Ji Linchuan and locking it back in the cabinet.

Each of the next pieces is a rare top-quality raw material.

Ji Linchuan was very refreshing, as long as Yan Lao stopped, if he was interested, he would take it out for Yan Lao to take a closer look.

In a few hours, thousands of top-level gemstones, not to mention the countless low-end raw materials in the outer hall, Yan Gui refreshed his understanding of the word Fansen, and he was fortunate to be able to come and see it today, and he felt that the trip was worthwhile.

And Ji Linchuan, who has these precious gems, can't help but be amazed.

Such a powerful company handed him an olive branch, no wonder his friend repeatedly persuaded him after knowing about it, after this half-day of knowledge, Yan Gui was really a little shaken.

At the end of the visit, the three of them left the raw material warehouse.

Yan Gui heard that this Mr. Ji is good at gambling stones, and there have always been many interesting stories in the wool market, so the more he talked, the more he talked, and almost chatted about a gonzo record.

Back in the office, Ji Linchuan beckoned the secretary to serve tea, and he placed a few pieces of brown paper in his hand on the edge of the table at random.

Yan Lao looked around his office, the space was spacious, there were several calligraphy fonts hanging on the wall, all the furnishings were solid wood, and many of the ornaments also looked like old items, no matter how you looked at this decoration, it didn't look like the style that young people liked.

Ji Linchuan followed his gaze and explained with a smile, "This used to be my father's office, and everything was left by him, I was too lazy to change it, so I just kept it there." He wrote all those words, and he used to like to practice calligraphy here, which made the office smell of ink. ”

Saying that, he got up and took Yan Gui to the desk, Ji Linchuan walked quickly, and when he got close to the table, he rubbed off a few pieces of paper that were placed on the edge of the table.

In an instant, it fell to the ground and just fell at Yan Gui's feet.

Ji Linchuan hurriedly turned around, bent down and picked it up, Yan Gui's eyes chased the pattern on the paper, and he was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked him, "Is this a design drawing?"

Ji Linchuan looked down at the kraft paper in his hand and said, "Oh, yes." ”

"Is it inconvenient for me to take a look?"

He laughed, "Of course." ”

Yan Gui took it in his hand, squinted and looked at it for a long time, there were three in total, the details of the design drawings on it were exquisite, and the unconventional shape was gentle and soft, after he read them one by one, he said to Ji Linchuan, "The people who designed these pictures are very good and have potential." ”

"Oh?" Ji Linchuan asked Elder Yan for advice with a question.

Yan Lao paused for a moment, as if he was thinking, and only said half-loudly, "Look at this, the treasure phase flower in the traditional pattern has a very good meaning, and it is generally a peony or lotus pattern, but this designer knows how to innovate, uses a lily pattern, and the flowers and leaves are arranged and combined very cleverly, without losing the essence of tradition, but it is not a copy of the old." ”

Yan Tong also came over to take a closer look at this time.

Yan Lao pointed to the gems inlaid in the painting again, "This necklace is a small ruby, and the middle is designed in the shape of a pomegranate. Yan Gui couldn't help but nod and said to Ji Linchuan, "I have a lot of ideas, Mr. Ji has such a designer under him, I'm afraid you don't have to bother inviting me anymore." ”

"It's funny, this is an amateur designer who has not entered the industry, and he doesn't even have your skills, how can he compare with you. Ji Linchuan couldn't help but show a smile on his face.

"It's not a joke, the latter two are not bad, but the inspiration is from European folk tales, which is completely different from the previous one, but you can see this technique, it is indeed painted by a person, it is obvious that this designer has a wide range of knowledge, and has a lot of accumulation of Chinese and Western cultures, this kind of thing can not be learned from books, it should be a person who has been abroad for a long time. ”

Ji Linchuan couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, "You are so amazing, she has indeed stayed abroad for a few years." However, she has not learned since she was a child, but she is quite attentive to painting, and you are so optimistic about her, but you still promote her. ”

"Oh, you know this person very well?" asked Yan Lao.

"I'll tell you the truth, she's my wife. ”

Yan Lao was surprised, and Yan Tong stood aside, looking sideways slightly, looking at Ji Linchuan thoughtfully.

I only heard Yan Lao praise, "Yo, that season has always won a treasure, your wife, she shouldn't be too old, she can have such skills, she won't be able to get it in the future." ”

Yan Lao smiled and put down the kraft paper, Ji Linchuan picked up the teacup, blew the hot air, shook his head and said, "She has no ambitions, so she just relies on a little talent to make a small fuss, I look pleasing to the eye, so I plan to get a few for her to play." ”

"Don't be sorry for her talent. Yan Lao immediately persuaded.

"If you say so, I will believe you. Ji Linchuan thought for a while, and said, "Why don't you make an exception, accept her as a student, pass on some skills, and let her learn more from real masters?"

Yan Lao was slightly stunned, but Yan Tong grabbed the words and said: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Mr. Ji again, my dad never accepts students." ”

Ji Linchuan looked at Old Yan, "Old Mr. Yan has great skills, why don't you want to give your juniors some opportunities to inherit one or two for you?"

I saw Yan Gui rolling his eyes, obviously thinking about it.

For so many years, he has no intention of accepting apprentices, he used to think that most of today's young people are too ambitious, and it is difficult to meet the eye, but now Ji Linchuan's words reminded him that although he has no inspiration, after all, he still has most of his life's skills in his body, and if he can have a successor, it is really enough to comfort him in this life.

After all, this is not a trivial matter, how can he agree to it at once, not to mention that he is already picky, he has never seen what kind of person this Mrs. Ji is, so he naturally can't let go of his consent.

"Mr. Ji. ”

Molly knocked on the door at this time and came in, and Yan Lao's eyes were instantly attracted.

I saw that his loose eyelids suddenly raised, and the woman in black clothes and long hair in front of him suddenly reminded him of the thrilling picture, and he couldn't help but think of the hijacking incident on the flight back from Koh Samui a few days ago.

He asked Molly with trembling hands, "You're the ...... on the plane."
