Chapter 388: Human Favor (Supplement 5.11)

What is the most admirable point that Mr. Dong can show about the carving master that Jia Rudao has here?

If this were not the case, there would be no need for Mr. Dong to go from Hong Kong to a small place like Linhai to talk to Jia Yidao in detail.

In Dong Zong's hope, the biggest advantage is that he can decide the shape of five jade jewelry. Especially in the carving of jadeite, Mr. Dong would not think that the craftsman on Jia Rudao's side can compare with that in Hong Kong. Presumably, even Jia Yidao himself wouldn't think so, right?

"Xiao Jia, let me tell you this. Mr. Dong thought about the wording and said, "Since the four jade jewelry are already finished products, I won't say more." Can you first introduce the form of the jadeite ornament? Otherwise, I can't make a suggestion about the piece that hasn't been carved yet, right?"

"Hehe, I was negligent. Jia Rudao smiled. There are only five pieces of jade jewelry that Dong Zong wants, and Jia Rudao said that four of them belong to "inventory", which is naturally finalized. In this way, it is understandable that Mr. Dong asked to understand it first.

"If it's convenient, can you let me get started in advance?" Mr. Dong said with a little flattery, "Of course, it's not that I can't trust you Xiao Jia, but that anyone who knows about such a unique jade jewelry will want to have a sneak peek." ”

"Everyone is in the industry, and I can completely understand your feelings. Jia Rudao nodded and said, "Supposedly, you told me so, so I should naturally agree." However, you also know that some carvers with excellent carving skills are always a little temperamental. ”

"Oh. Mr. Dong replied lightly, obviously a little disappointed with such an answer. It's just that what Jia Nidao said in his words is also relatively realistic, and people can't find anything wrong. Anyway, these four pieces of jade ornaments should be seen by Mr. Dong first, it will be a matter of time, and Mr. Dong is not in a hurry.

And Jia Nidao on the side secretly smiled bitterly, this is the price of lying casually! Not to mention four pieces, even if Jia Nidao takes out one or two more pieces, it is impossible. I can't say, after today, Jia Rudao will work hard and take the opportunity to carve more jade jewelry to prepare for his future career. Otherwise, if you really encounter a similar situation, it will not be easy to deal with!

"However, I still know a little bit about the specific appearance of the four jade ornaments. Jia Rudao said, and began to imagine in his mind that he had a lot of jade materials on hand, but he couldn't make it up randomly. At this time, every time Jia Rudao said a style of jade jewelry, Dong Zong would definitely keep it firmly in mind. If the time comes, Jia Rudao has no way to come up with the corresponding style of jadeite jewelry, or he can't find the right jadeite material to carve for a while, which will inevitably cause a lot of suspicion from Dong Zong.

You can't just talk nonsense for Jia Yidao at this time, you need to cut out the right part from the large jade material in the next few days, if you don't have the right jade material, right?

This kind of wasteful behavior, Jia Yidao disdains to do.

"Oh?" Mr. Dong nodded, and the corners of his mouth finally had a little smile. "Then I'll listen to it. "Since there is no way to touch it with your own hands, it is also a good idea to hear some descriptions from Jia Yidao's mouth. At least, Jia Rudao is the boss of the jade carving master, and it is normal to know the specific appearance of some jade jewelry. Moreover, Mr. Dong will not be "stupid" to think that Jia Rudao said that there are only four pieces of inventory, so there must be only four, right?

"Two of them are carved jade bracelets. Jia Rudao pretended to be thinking and said, "In terms of texture, they are all glass species, and the color is also excellent yang green, and the size or something is relatively similar." ”

"That's a good one. Mr. Dong replied. For the jade bracelet among the four jade jewelry, Mr. Dong was not surprised at all. Jia seems to be pondering, carving out jade bracelets and jade ring faces, which are the most time-saving and labor-saving, as long as the size and color of the jadeite material is appropriate, it can be carved out quickly. Mr. Dong thinks that in the choice of jadeite carving, the more high-end the material, the more it should be carved into a classic form.

Unless the customer has a request for what they want. Otherwise, in the eyes of Mr. Dong, a piece of jadeite ornament with complicated carving technology may be a few points higher than a jadeite bracelet of the same weight and quality in terms of price, but the former is definitely inferior to the latter in circulation.

If you put yourself in the shoes of the person, Dong Zong has a carving master with outstanding jade carving skills, and there are a lot of jade materials on hand, excluding those jade jewelry used to train the carving master, Dong Zong must hope that all of them are carved into classic styles.

As for the piece that Liu Yufei has at hand, Mr. Dong naturally thinks that it is the work used to try his hand.

Thinking of this, Mr. Dong is also more full of expectations for the four jadeite jewelry that will appear: "Since it is a pair of jadeite bracelets of the same model, it is easier to create gimmicks when it is sold, and it is at this price that there are a few more variables." The jade bracelet of glass is not cheap. ”

However, how did Jia Rudao listen to it, and how did he feel that there was a feeling of joy in Dong Zong's words. Ordinary glass bright green ring surface can be tens of millions of dollars in the market price, and the bracelet will naturally be higher. Coupled with the unique carving effect of the jade jewelry on Jia Rudao's side, the price increase needs to be forty percent higher than the market price, so that Dong Zong not only frowned at the large amount of money that was about to be paid, but was a little excited.

It can be seen from this that a big merchant like Mr. Dong has great courage in the Jade line. And how sufficient are the funds on hand?

Jia Rudao was originally a little proud because he had more than 100 million funds in his account, but he suddenly returned to a calm state, stabilized his mind, and then explained: "That's right, I have already seen that pair of yang green jade bracelets." In the craftsmanship of carving, Mr. Dong, you can rest assured that you are absolutely satisfied. ”

"For this, I can still trust Xiao Jia. Mr. Dong smiled and flattered.

When Jia seemed to hear this, he also smiled "hehe". In his heart, Jia Rudao would not believe Mr. Dong's words. Anyway, when Mr. Dong signs for something, he will definitely be able to get his hands on it, and if he is not satisfied, he will definitely give his opinion. Don't look at the things discussed by the two at this time, they are all in the same direction, and they don't have any opinions on the details. But when it comes to trading, the details really determine the price.

Moreover, Jia Nidao also understands that the so-called market price that Dong Nidao said is far from the market price that Jia Nidao placed in the store, but the "lower" internal price among the merchants of the gambling stone line. Even so, after Jia Rudao had the interests of "forty percent", he was relatively satisfied.

In the final analysis, the money Jia Rudao is making now is the price of "carving craftsmanship". For the money on the jade material, in the face of a big merchant like Dong Zong, there is no profit to be made. You must know that he will naturally not lack jadeite raw materials such as glass and bright green.

"The remaining two, speaking of which, I don't know very well. Jia Rudao said, "If Mr. Dong is really in a hurry, you can stay on the side of Linhai, and let me do my best to be a landlord, and after three or five days, I can bring things to Mr. Dong to see, what do you think?"

"Three or five days?" Mr. Dong pondered and said, "I'm not in a hurry in these three or five days." Xiao Jia, what about you, try your best to carve out five jade ornaments, and I'll go back to Hong Kong to raise funds. These five jade jewelry are not cheap. ”

In a short period of time, Dong can always come up with such a sum of money, but taking it out does not mean that it will not have the slightest impact on his capital flow in other aspects. Jia Rudao couldn't help but nodded: "Then it's decided, when the time comes, we will pay for the goods in two, and it can be regarded as wishing us a happy cooperation." ”

"Huh. Mr. Dong smiled and responded, "Then the cooperation is pleasant." ”

"As for the five jade jewelry, what good suggestions does Mr. Dong have?" Jia Rudao asked, "In terms of texture, I will definitely use glass imperial green materials, and the form is ......."

"Morphologically ......," Mr. Dong hesitated for a moment and said, "I think it's better to carve out some famous halls to compare." ”

"Could it be because there is already a bright green jade bracelet?" Jia Rudao originally thought that the chairman of the board of directors would continue to propose to carve the jade bracelet.

"Naturally, it's not. Mr. Dong explained with a smile, "Don't you have Xiao Jia, in this kind of carving skills, when choosing carved ornaments, you have a great advantage." ”

"I see!" After Mr. Dong's reminder, Jia Rudao immediately patted his thigh and couldn't help but approve, "I said, no wonder Mr. Dong, you want to carve jade ornaments." ”

In Jia Nidao's "Green, Fat, Red and Thin", Jia Nidao only exhibited four pieces of jade ornaments carved by himself. But in terms of style, none of them belong to jade bracelets and jade rings. And the effect that can cause such a sensation in the eyes of connoisseurs is naturally the credit of Jia Rudao's special carving skills.

But it is undeniable that such a carving craft also has its advantages and disadvantages.

As a more common jadeite bracelet and jadeite ring face in jadeite styles, even if it is a jadeite bead chain, it is a roundness that is exquisite. The patterns made on the surface of the jadeite material are naturally much less. And it is precisely because of these styles of jadeite jewelry that can ensure the characteristics of jadeite itself to the greatest extent, so they are given the word "classic".

If you rely on the efforts of the carver to turn a piece of jadeite material that is almost collapsed into a treasure, it can only be said that it is a "boutique" in jadeite jewelry, and will not become a "classic". It's like the "Fengxue Mountain Temple" that Jia Nidao encountered in Guangdong. It is because of the dense "grass core" in the jadeite material, which is finally perfectly combined with the "snow scene" to create a piece of low-grade jadeite material, which has become a proud work after being carved!

And Jia Rudao, as a person who carves by hand, naturally understands the greatest strength of his ability perception. That is, to be able to understand the texture of the jadeite material itself more than ordinary people, it is easier to "engrave" according to the material. Coupled with a little bit of the help of the ability, and when using the "knife", some special features are reflected, which forms the style of Jia Nidao carving jadeite.

Such a skill, when carving jadeite bracelets, may be able to more vividly highlight the texture of the jadeite material itself, but if you want to talk about "gimmicks", if you want to talk about the most intuitive visual shock, it is still similar to the "serpentine jade earrings" such a more "technical" carving.

Let's just say that it is the jade ornament carved according to Li Shiyun's prototype. A few brushstrokes, the manual is not complicated, but because of the unevenness on the jade ornaments, it reflects a unique charm of women, which is the biggest charm of Jia Yidao's carving.

An expert like Mr. Dong, even if he didn't see the jade bracelet carved by Jia Yidao, but, from the four jade jewelry in "Green, Fat, Red and Thin", as well as the one that Liu Yufei showed him, he can also guess the effect of the jade bracelet after it is carved.

As a hand-carved Jia Rudao himself, he needs to be reminded by Mr. Dong to recall, the biggest charm of the jade jewelry he carved, I don't feel that when I speak next, I will have a little embarrassed look. When it was time to send Mr. Dong downstairs, Jia Rudao's mind was still a little trance and helpless.

It seems that it is not only limited to porcelain, which is a relatively old business, even if it is the jade line that Jia Rudao has always thought he is good at, it also has a lot of heritage, right?

……

And with the arrival of Dong Zong, many jadeite businessmen, some are engaged in the jadeite business, some are completely engaged in gambling stones, and many people are like Jia Yidao, whether it is gambling stones, or the carving of jadeite materials, and even the sales of jadeite products, they will more or less participate in a little bit.

Fortunately, everyone is a peer, and on the surface, they are also relatively polite.

In the face of the more delicate jadeite jewelry in the "green, fat, red and thin", and the colorful colors are also perfectly matched, some jadeite merchants will inevitably be like Dong Zong, and they will have a little bit of the meaning of wanting to pick up the goods from Jia Rudao.

In this regard, Jia Yidao could only smile bitterly and politely refused.

His own jade shops have just opened, and they can currently produce and sell themselves, which is already very good for Jia Yidao. The business with Dong Zong is only limited to the carving skills of Jia Yidao, an "idler", and it can be completely settled. Otherwise, it is not realistic to let Xu Zhiguo, a jadeite carver, deal with orders from other jadeite shops.

Moreover, Jia Rudao also wants to participate in some real "jewelry exhibitions", among which there are many places where the carving works of Xu Zhiguo and others are used. It can't be that the works of "green, fat, red and thin" in the entire jewelry exhibition are all carved by Jia Yidao alone, right?

Speaking of which, Jia Rudao still wants to find a few more carving masters to come over to help, how can he still have the energy to provide supplies for other jade shops! However, as the so-called good things, there will be people chasing them, which is essential. Moreover, the more superb jadeite jewelry, in the eyes of connoisseurs, the more it can show the value of the collection. The more knowledgeable people are, the more they can see the extraordinary beauty of the best jade jewelry in Jia Yidao's "green, fat, red and thin".

It's like a few people with Mr. Dong, one of them is three or five, and they took a fancy to the "Zodiac" carved by the "Purple Eyes", although they knew that these three things were not for sale, they still had the mentality of trying it out, and asked Jia Yidao. One of them also asked if Jia Rudao could provide him with one, even if it was carved from other jade materials.

It is precisely because of the value of this peculiar carving technique that I can see.

Jia Rudao looked at Mr. Dong meaningfully. Immediately, the businessman who asked had a wry smile on his face, Mr. Dong and Jia Rudao had been on the second floor for so long, and when they came down, they were also relatively kind, talking and laughing freely.

If there is no deal between two people, no one will believe it.

Such a simple move by Jia Rudao was already a tactful refusal. Moreover, it is far more lethal than Jia Yidao's direct refusal. At this time, if you want this quality of jade jewelry, yes, go directly to Mr. Dong to ask for it.

This is the meaning conveyed by Jia Rudao.

For this reason, Mr. Dong also looked at Jia Nidao, smiled weakly, and dared to love Jia Nidao to push him out as a shield. There are many of these who are very good friends of Mr. Dong, and the meaning of this human affection is undoubtedly a little more. Fortunately, Mr. Dong is a person who has been in the mall for a long time, and he quickly got rid of this kind of entanglement of human feelings, and directly told them that the answer would be revealed after a while.

Those words were in the hearts of everyone, holding back such a breath. If you want to vent, you feel like a fist hitting the cotton, without the slightest effort, and you are uncomfortable.

Jia Rudao has learned a lot from Dong Zong's handling of things, and has whetted everyone's appetite, but he is not specific What kind of insight will be seen after a period of publicity, it is really clever!

Of course, in addition to the "zodiac", the rest of the glass imperial green, bright green jade jewelry, many businessmen are also delighted. These quality jadeite jewelry, everyone has heard of it, and they must have heard of it. I can't say it, every night when I go to bed, I still think of these few terms. However, if you have seen it with your own eyes, and it is so close, it will not be all of them.

Among them, it is inevitable that someone quietly pulled Jia Rudao and asked about the price of these jade jewelry, whether they can transfer a piece at a "market price". They also said openly and honestly that they would not take it out for sale, but only use it for their own collection, in terms of price, anyway, they themselves are in the industry, and they can also know how much water is indicated in Jia Rudao's jade shop.

For the sake of favors, Jia Rudao also thought about his future path, and most of them agreed.

Perhaps, some gambling stone merchants can gamble on several pieces of jadeite rough in their lifetime, and they can cut out the glass imperial green. However, there may be one or two pieces missed in the middle, and after cutting it out, once the glass imperial green jadeite appears, it will not necessarily be polished out, keep a copy of it, and break up the large material directly, and use it to carve small pieces of jadeite jewelry, in the eyes of insiders, it is the act of tyrannical things, which is very shameful!

In this way, don't look at the gambling stone merchants who come into contact with a lot of jadeite materials every year, but it is possible that their own collection of jadeite jewelry is not as good as ordinary jadeite collectors. Otherwise, just by virtue of Dong Zong's face, or Liu Yufei's interpersonal relationships, it is impossible to find so many jade merchants in a short period of time to visit "Green, Fat, Red and Thin", right?

Jia Nidao guessed that a large part of the people did not come to Jia Nidao's peculiar carving skills, but completely spread the reputation of "green, fat, red and thin", and they wanted to come over to see the rumored best jadeite.

You must know that almost most of the jadeite shops will not display the best jadeite so openly.

……

In addition, in the days after the opening, Jia Rudao also saw the arrival of several unexpected people, either some famous hosts and reporters of the TV station, or professional models with Zhou Sha, or simply some small stars.

After these people saw the beauty of the jadeite, their eyes were all full of brilliance, but after seeing the astronomical prices, they frowned a little. Not to mention the few pieces of jadeite jewelry that Jia Yidao marked not for sale, not to mention the glass imperial green worth tens of millions, just some jadeite of several million is enough to discourage them!

Jia Rudao looked at it, and an idea suddenly flashed in his mind. Then, the whole person's mind became a little impatient.
