Regardless of whether Jia Yidao's analysis is correct or not, because of Jia Yidao's invitation. And Mr. Zhang, who finally sat at the seat where Jia Yidao, Ah San, and Yang Fan were, after listening to the conversation between the three of them at this time, he said with a wry smile: "Xiao Jia, you shouldn't mind if I call you that, right?"

Seeing Jia Rudao nodding, Mr. Zhang continued, "Since even you don't know the authenticity of such a Tianhuangshi seal, why do you still participate in the auction in violation of regulations when you are 'fighting treasures'?"

"This ......" Speaking of this matter, Jia Nidao was still a little worried when facing Old Man Zhang, in the final analysis, it was Jia Nidao's fault, "I can only say that it was a mood I was in at the time, just a mood." When I looked at the Tian Huangshi seal on the display stand, it was as if it was beckoning me to take it back. I think, as an insider, Mr. Zhang must be able to understand my mood at that time, right?"

Old Man Zhang looked at Jia Rudao noncommittally.

"To be honest, when I met Mr. Zhang, I had absolutely no other thoughts except respect. Jia Rudao continued to explain, "Moreover, Mr. Yang also said just now, in private, if I can help in any way, I also ask Mr. Zhang to speak." ”

"Help or something, but there is nothing special to worry about......" Mr. Zhang hesitated slightly, but still shook his head. Jia Yidao and Ah San couldn't help but glance at each other, but the doubt in each other's eyes was the same. At Mr. Zhang's age, when facing young people like Jia Nidao and Ah San, even if there are any difficulties, I'm afraid I won't say it directly, right?

Jia Rudao couldn't help but give Yang Fan an inquiring look, but Yang Fan rolled his eyes and said, "Maybe Xiao Jia, how can you really help...... No, you should be able to help for sure. ”

As if to prove his guess, the voice between Yang Fan and Jia Yidao was very small, and it was originally about Mr. Zhang that was discussed, but at this time, he would definitely not let him hear it. You must know that the atmosphere of the entire birthday banquet hall is relatively lively. In terms of noise, it is naturally more cluttered.

"Xiao Jia, you may not know what Mr. Zhang does, right?" Yang Fan said cautiously. While speaking, Yang Fan also looked at Old Man Zhang, at this moment, his old man was depressed.

"What are you doing?" Jia Rudao just knew that the other party liked Tian Huangshi's seal, and he should be an insider, but he didn't know much about it. Speaking of which, if it weren't for Yang Fan's explanation at the beginning, Jia Rudao wouldn't have paid much attention to who had brought the price of Tian Huangshi's seal to more than 9.5 million. Even so, looking at Yang Fan's rather smug expression, Jia Rudao still guessed, "Could it be that he is running a jade business?"

"Hehe, what do you say?" Yang Fan asked rhetorically.

"If it's a jadeite business, I can really help. Jia Nidao pondered, if it was some other types, Jia Nidao couldn't do anything even if he knew. But if it is Jade and his party, Jia Rudao thinks that it is still easy to pay off the favor that Old Man Zhang just had. So, as if to confirm Yang Fan's explanation, Jia Yidao hurriedly asked Mr. Zhang himself.

And also faintly revealed: "If one day I have the opportunity to do fair business with Mr. Zhang, at that time, I will definitely give Mr. Zhang a few more profits." ”

This can be regarded as Jia Rudao's compensation for Mr. Zhang in private.

"Oh?" Mr. Zhang looked a little surprised, undoubtedly full of surprise that Jia Yidao would say such words, "In this way, Xiao Jia, you also have a lot of business?" Oh, by the way. Until now, I don't know what kind of business you are doing, Xiao Jia, I'm really sorry. ”

"Hehe, it's okay!" Jia Rudao naturally wouldn't mind.

Not to mention that Mr. Zhang is not from Lin'an, even if he is from Lin'an, Jia Rudao is in Linhai. The two place names are not much different, but they also have a small half-day drive, people don't know, and it is reasonable.

Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that Jia Yidao's jade shop has just opened. If the business is big and the time is long, it will be like Old Man Yang's "Shi Zhixuan", and the fame will naturally go out. "For now, I'm just running some jadeite business, and a while ago, I just opened a jadeite shop, and it's pretty good business. ”

"The jade shop is good. Mr. Zhang sighed with emotion, "I also opened a jade shop, and I have been doing it for most of my life." It's just that if you don't have a few treasures to open a jade shop, it's not easy to spread out in business. ”

"yes, yes. Xu is to the point, Jia Rudao felt that the words between himself and Mr. Zhang suddenly increased. "However, I think that the most important thing in opening a jade shop is to look at the overall grade of jade jewelry, that is, the positioning of the jade jewelry you sell before opening the store. ”

"Oh, how do you say that?" asked Old Man Zhang curiously.

"For example, if you are positioned for high-end jadeite collectors, then what your customers need is the best jadeite jewelry. "And if you want to occupy the mass market, the jade jewelry in your jade shop must not be too expensive." ”

This simple business philosophy is definitely inferior to Mr. Zhang. However, Jia Nidao is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, speaking of which, it is also a slip of the tongue, not to mention the stunned old man Zhang, at least, in his heart, Jia Nidao is still very honest, and most of what he says is his own true thoughts!

It was precisely because he saw that Jia Nidao was full of confidence that Mr. Zhang's eyes seemed to be getting sharper and sharper at the end, and his expression when he looked at Jia Nidao became much more exciting. asked: "I wonder if Xiaoyou has any wonderful things that I can have the pleasure of feasting my eyes on?"

Jia Yidao looked at Old Man Zhang's eyes, hesitated for a long time, and suddenly remembered what Yang Fan said just now that could help, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Old Mr. Zhang, is your jade shop in trouble?"

When Mr. Zhang heard this, he immediately showed a look of surprise and asked, "How can you see it?"

"First of all, I just learned that Mr. Zhang, you are in the jade business. Jia Rudao said, "In this way, when you are 'fighting treasure', you can bid 9.58 million, which is reasonable." ”

If not, ordinary people. How can you be so unafraid of the price of bidding when you are faced with the things you like in the collection industry? Sometimes, you need capital to like a kind of thing. For example, if it is for diamonds, there are more people who like them, but not everyone can get beautiful and large diamonds. Like and collect such things, no matter what you like, you have to come out of your own financial ability.

It's not that people who don't have money can't like to collect. Rich people have rich people's ways of collecting, and poor people have poor people's collecting preferences. Just as there is a distinction between a top-notch auction and an ordinary antique street. Perhaps, at the very beginning, Jia Rudao fell in love with porcelain, and it was precisely because of the fun of collecting between ordinary alleys and alleys.

"Secondly, I think Mr. Zhang, your bearing, must also belong to the Jewelry and Jade Association, right?" Jia Rudao said guessingly. "Because people in this industry, once they reach the age of your old man, most of them will put a name in the association in addition to their business reputation. ”

"Hehe, little friend, you can see it. Mr. Zhang did not deny Jia Yidao's speculation.

For a while, Jia Rudao's confidence also increased a little, and then said: "I'm not old yet. If I'm like me, and I'm all squeezed into the Jewelry and Jade Association, wouldn't this title be too worthless?"

"That's a maybe. Mr. Zhang said, "Jewelry and Jade Association, to put it bluntly, it depends on your family background." If your jadeite shop is big enough and influential enough, even if you are a few years younger and you don't want to go to the jewelry association, I'm afraid there will be people picking up your pockets for you to go. ”

"It seems that my jade shop is not big enough. Jia seemed to sigh to himself.

"Xiao Jia, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk. Ah San was on the side, and said with some dissatisfaction, "If I had your current results, I would have been so happy that I couldn't find the edge." How can I be like you, standing here and talking cold......"

"I said Ah San, this is the difference between you and Xiao Jia. Yang Fan teased Ah San and said, "If not, at this time, why did Xiao Jia open a jade shop, and only you watched enviously from the side? ”

"You're the one who has a character problem. Ah San muttered, "Your conduct is good, why don't you open a jade shop too?"

Suddenly, Yang Fan was also speechless for a while. In the final analysis, he can tease Ah San here, but he seems to have forgotten that in comparison, if the family factor is excluded, he may not be as good as Ah San.

For a while, Yang Fan could only smile wryly and stop talking.

On the contrary, it was Mr. Zhang, looking at Ah San's jokes, the smile on his face became stronger, and the previous depression disappeared without a trace in an instant. With young people, especially with a group of young people who like to joke, even at Mr. Zhang's age, you will feel a lot younger, right?

"It seems that here, that is, my old man, is old, old, and useless. Mr. Zhang sighed, and the traces of the years on his face became clearer in an instant.

"Mr. Zhang, you come from a family of jewelers. At this time, Yang Fan had to stand up and encourage the old man. "At present, in Beijing, your jade shop is still in the business of jewelry and jade. The profit and everything are also very good. Otherwise, you wouldn't be in the mood to bid more than 9 million yuan to buy a Tianhuangshi Great Seal in the 'Doubao' link, right? It's just that in the recent period, your store's main sales item, the purchase of jadeite, has encountered some difficulties. As long as you survive this hurdle, your jadeite shop still has a great future. ”

"Beijing?" Jia Rudao muttered, he really didn't expect that Old Man Zhang's jade shop was opened in Beijing.

"Well, yes. Mr. Zhang said, "Beijing, such a place, don't look at it and it sounds good, it's all over the place." But the competition there is not comparable to other small local stores. If you are not careful, you will be squeezed down by more and more powerful merchants, and you will never recover. ”

"Oh, Mr. Zhang, with your interpersonal relationship, if you can't eat in Beijing, I wonder if your jade shop has encountered sniping from some other merchants in the source of goods?" Jia Yidao's thoughts returned to the way he helped Mr. Zhang analyze the situation just now, "I'm afraid that you came to Zhejiang this time, and you also have the idea of wanting to find a reliable source of jade jewelry, right?"

"However, if you want to find a source of jade jewelry, shouldn't you go to Guangdong?" Ah San asked a little incomprehensibly, "You know, most of the jade jewelry in Zhejiang is also imported from Guangdong and Yunnan." ”

"This is you, Ah San, you think it is wrong. Jia Rudao replied, "If we can buy from Guangdong and Yunnan, how can there be a problem with the supply of Mr. Zhang's jade jewelry? If I am Mr. Zhang's competitor, once I start to start, I will definitely start from Guangdong and Yunnan." ”

For a well-known jadeite shop like Mr. Zhang, only by grasping the source of goods and destroying it can it be a fatal blow. Otherwise, just competing in the sale of jadeite, no matter how strong those merchants are, it is impossible to wipe out Mr. Zhang's jadeite shop!

It's like Jia Nidao's "green, fat, red and thin" jade shop, although other merchants are red-eyed, they don't have the slightest solution.

First, the things sold by Jia Nidao are indeed genuine, and even slightly lower than the ordinary price on the market, so that people can't find anything wrong at all; second, Jia Nidao's choice of the place on the seaside side, the antique street, is indeed a good umbrella for Jia Nidao's interpersonal relationships; and the most important thing is that Jia Nidao is completely independent from gambling stones to jadeite carving.

Even if others want to suppress it, there is no chance at all.

For example, Yang Qi's "Tianqi Jewelry Company", if it weren't for Yang Qi himself and participating in the gambling stone, even if it was in such a small place as Linhai, there would be no place for him to have a long-term foothold.

"I came to Zhejiang this time, and I really want to negotiate the supply of jadeite jewelry with some bosses who carve their own jadeite jewelry. After hearing Jia Yidao's words, Old Man Zhang also nodded and said, "It's a pity that the negotiation was not successful. ”

"Then why did Mr. Zhang choose to come to Lin'an?" Yang Fan asked curiously. You must know that Lin'an only has bloodstone, and there will not be a large number of jade jewelry. What's more, what Mr. Zhang is looking for is also a company that can provide long-term and stable jadeite jewelry.

If there is such a company in Lin'an, "Shi Zhixuan" will not have any plans to cooperate with Jia Yidao's "green, fat, red and thin".

"Hehe, the place I went to this station is naturally not Lin'an. Old man Zhang said with a smile, "It's Yangzhou." Subsequently, I also went to Changshu, Shanghai and other places, and found a lot of jade shops and companies. It's just that it's not as good as I predicted. A small amount of jadeite jewelry can still be purchased, but in terms of quality and quantity, I feel not very satisfied. No, when I was in Hangzhou, I met an acquaintance, saying that there was an old friend in Lin'an who was going to celebrate his birthday, and I thought that it would not be bad for a few days anyway, so I came over to join in the fun. ”

"In this way, it is really a fateful thing to meet Mr. Zhang in Lin'an. Ah San toasted Mr. Zhang at the right time. Not to mention that a lot of friendships are reached from the wine table, at least, it also makes the atmosphere between several people more harmonious.

"Xiao Jia, just now you also said that you opened a jade shop. Mr. Zhang said to Jia Rudao, "You also know roughly what about my situation." In the jade market in Beijing, low-end jewelry is not the focus of my business. As long as I can occupy a certain seat in high-end jewelry, those ordinary customers will not lose a large number. ”

In the final analysis, a jade store, the most important thing is its treasure of the town store! Especially the high-end market route of the jade store, if there is no high-end jade jewelry in the store, how to talk about encroaching on the market?

"So, I'm not going around in circles. Mr. Zhang paused for a moment and said, "Xiao Jia, can you tell me who will be my best partner in this area of Zhejiang? ”

As soon as he asked, Mr. Zhang was visibly relieved. Perhaps in the past few days, the repeated failures in the negotiations have put him under great pressure. To be able to come to Lin'an, the face of old friends is one aspect, and coming to relax is probably the real purpose of Mr. Zhang.

However, when Mr. Zhang looked at Jia Nidao and Ah San, the faces of these three young people were relatively strange. Especially Ah San and Yang Fan, they actually had a feeling that they wanted to laugh secretly. Mr. Zhang immediately recalled his words, could it be that there was something missing?

But no!

Mr. Zhang carefully filtered the words just now in his mind, but finally did not find an answer. I can only wonder if I am getting older, and there is a generation gap between me and these young people in front of me?

And Ah San on the side couldn't help but say: "Mr. Zhang, it seems that you have come to the right place this time." ”

"Oh, what do you say?" Mr. Zhang's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this! It seemed that Ah San's words gave him a little surprise.

"Let me tell you this, if you came to Zhejiang a few months ago, I can confidently tell you that a small number of jadeite jewelry, whether it is high-end or low-end, as long as you can spend a lot of money, you can get it back. Ah San said with a smile. Although he doesn't know much about jadeite, he still knows the general situation of jadeite jewelry in Zhejiang. At least, there are jade jewelry for sale in the "Weekly Diary".

Most of the products in the jade shops here are really purchased directly from Guangdong and Yunnan. Don't say it's Zhejiang, the jade shops in other parts of the country are the same.

There are very few people like Wang Biao who have a large-scale jadeite processing workshop. Even if there is, it is all self-produced and self-sold. Just like Jia Nidao here, he has a jadeite processing factory and opened a jadeite shop.

Sometimes, it is Uncle Zhou in "Zhou Ji", after cutting the stone, if he can cut out a good jadeite material, he will also polish a few jadeite jewelry by himself.

However, it's all fun, and if you want to form long-term and stable cooperation with other businesses, you can't do it!

Only when Jia Rudao has a large number of jadeite rough stones and jadeite materials on hand, and there are a few fixed jadeite carvers under him, and there is only a small jadeite shop when selling, can he even out a lot of jadeite jewelry, right?

This is also the reason why Ah San pondered at the beginning that Mr. Zhang came to Zhejiang to find the source of goods, but it was a little fuit.

"And now, Mr. Zhang, isn't the object you want to cooperate with just in front of you?" Ah San said, and deliberately pointed at Jia Rudao.

"Xiao Jia?" For this answer, Mr. Zhang was obviously a little stunned. It was only after a while that the old man sighed and said, "It's really terrifying." ”

Listening to Ah San's tone of voice and Jia Yidao's expression, Mr. Zhang would not think that the young people in front of him were fooling him. Although I don't know for the time being, what is the scale of the jade shop behind Jia Rudao. In the Jade line, there is a bit of a doorway, but it is for sure.
