Chapter Eighty-Three: Cutting Jade
Tian Chuan asked if Qi Yong knew anyone who knew the trade, he didn't know the market, and he was afraid that he would be deceived if he took it out and sold it like this.
Qi Yong said: "You have to find Sister Ting for this matter, there are people in her club who do this kind of business, and she has a good relationship." ”
Hearing Qi Yong talk about Liu Meiting, Tian Chuan was also about to discuss the matter of the health food club with her, so he immediately said goodbye to Qi Yong and drove directly to Liu Meiting.
Liu Meiting is now in the tea bar, and when Tian Chuan arrived, she was cooking tea alone. Tian Chuan directly entered Liu Meiting's exclusive tea room, sat opposite her and watched, Liu Meiting's movements were still smooth, and Tai Chi was full of meaning. Until he drank tea, Tian Chuan always felt a little awkward, pondered carefully, and couldn't grasp the point, so he closed his eyes and thought carefully about Liu Meiting's every action just now. After a long time, Tagawa suddenly understood that she was trying to find breakthroughs in Tai Chi and wanted to integrate these breakthroughs into the tea ceremony. Because it's too reluctant, it feels like it's contrived.
So Tian Chuan opened his mouth and said: "Sister Ting, you are pursuing breakthroughs too much, and you have been affected by your peaceful state of mind. It is still necessary to start from the core characteristics of Taijiquan itself, and pursue neutrality and peace, naturally. Use more 'four positives', no matter how fast or slow the opponent's attack is, I will meet you with a dignified array and a righteous teacher. It's like my trick 'catching the bird's tail', and naturally it is not afraid of all attacks. Pursuing too much variation, or pursuing the enhancement of a certain skill, or pursuing excessive influence on the opponent, will cause deformation of the action or imbalance between offense and defense. The core technology of our Tai Chi is the balance of offense and defense. It's not just about the balance of the movements, it's about the balance of the mentality. Keep your own neutral and peaceful mentality and actions, move with the enemy, smash, squeeze, press, follow the trend, there is always a movement that is reasonable, first of all, you can be invincible, you can wait for the enemy to defeat. The 'Four Wonders' technique is a supplement to the 'Four Positives' method, and it can be used naturally at that time. In this case, once the 'Four Odds' method is used, it should be able to achieve the effect of defeating the enemy with one move, otherwise it will destroy its own offensive and defensive balance, which is not conducive to the coherence of subsequent actions. ”
After listening to Tian Chuan's words, Liu Meiting pondered, pondered for a long time, and asked: "Is it the feeling of 'the breeze blowing on the hills, and the bright moon shining on the river' in "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", "Jiuyang True Scripture"?"
Tian Chuan nodded and said, "It's not exactly the same, but it's about the same." It is to build up one's own strength and self-confidence first, and the feeling of 'let him wind blow in the southeast and northwest, I will not move'. ”
Liu Meiting thought for a moment and said excitedly: "I seem to understand." Whatever you want, I'm going to practice. "As he spoke, he was about to go out.
Tian Chuan hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Don't leave yet, I have something to discuss with you, and I will accompany you to practice boxing when I am done." ”
Liu Meiting had no choice but to stop and asked, "What's the matter?"
Tian Chuan invited her to sit down and talked about selling jadeite first. Liu Meiting asked for the two pieces of red fei from Tian Chuan's hand, looked at them carefully and said, "It's so beautiful, if it's green, it's even better." If the skin everywhere is so thin, both halves can be cut out of a bracelet, and the rest of the part is made into a pendant or ring or something, tens of millions of dollars will not be able to run. I have a friend Wu Xinran who runs a jewelry store, so I'm going to call her over. With that, he picked up the phone and called.
While waiting for Wu Xinran, Tian Chuan talked about the upcoming arrival of vegetables and eggs. Liu Meiting didn't expect it to be so fast, and asked, "When is the exact time?"
Tagawa said: "Eggs should be within a month, eight or nine hundred catties a day." There are less than ten kinds of vegetables that can be sold at the same time, and it is estimated that more than three or four thousand catties per day. There are several types of fruits, such as melons and strawberries, and melons are available until mid-June. I estimated that it would be enough to supply the daily needs of a thousand ordinary families. ”
Liu Meiting said: "I can basically confirm that there are about 600 members here, and with a little effort, I can make up almost 1,000." ”
Tagawa said: "I have about 300 picking customers there, and there are still 100 of the faculty and staff of the Agricultural University. In addition, the calligraphy and painting circles and auction houses can also make up a hundred and ten, a total of five or six hundred. ”
Tagawa continued, "You can't ask people to buy this thing, you have to have more members than you can produce." Moreover, there should be screening for members, and they should not be accepted when they see people, but they should be made into a grade and made a fashion. Let the majority of members be proud to eat our vegetables, but also limit the number and variety of purchases, members who do not reach the level, can not buy certain varieties of products. ”
Liu Meiting clapped her hands and smiled: "It seems that brother, you really have the potential to be a profiteer, so you should do this." It is better to rot the excess vegetables in the ground in the early stage than to push our grade up. In addition, you have to do some things that can be promoted to customers from the aspects of production, packaging and transportation, so as to increase the trust of customers and raise our grade. ”
Tagawa said, "I'm already working on a lot of things. I have made a promotional video of the videos of each production link, and now only the picking, packaging, transportation, and distribution links are left. The records of each operation point of production are complete, and defective products can be traced. All daily management and operations have been standardized, and workers are required to operate according to standards. In the future, customers can find out the vegetables from the greenhouse, when they were sown, and even include records of each watering and fertilization, and if they have carried out operations such as pest control, they can also be checked. Our website is already complete. ”
"Since you've done so well, I don't have anything to say here. Will your original five greenhouses be mixed with the vegetables from these new greenhouses?"
"Now the old greenhouse has been managed in the same way as the new greenhouse, and it can be sold in a mixed manner. Customers don't have to worry about the quality of the vegetables after picking, we will grad. When the customer is in the future*, it will be graded. ”
Then the two talked about the delivery method, and Tagawa said his thoughts. Liu Meiting said: "Unmanned delivery is a good way to deliver in the early morning, but if customers can't take the vegetables away in time, it will cause the quality of the vegetables to deteriorate." You think, if it is put out at 5 a.m. in winter and the customer takes it at 7 a.m., a lot of the dishes may have been frozen. So the delivery method also needs to be considered. ”
The two discussed for a long time, but they couldn't come up with a better way, so they had to put this issue aside for the time being. However, the matter of delivery is related to the success or failure of membership sales, and it must be determined as soon as possible.
At this time, Wu happily arrived. The two took her in and went into the tea room together. After a brief introduction, Wu Xinran asked the red jade to go over, looked at it carefully for a while, and said: "Tian Chuan, your piece of jadeite is very rare, and it has really reached the glass species. Now the warm color of the jade is gradually becoming popular, like this beautiful color, good water planting red jade, the price is not lower than the green jade, can already be close to the price of imperial green. The estimate I give for these two pieces of red fei is 50 million. Now these two pieces of jade can not be regarded as clear materials, but can only be regarded as relatively good window materials. If all the stone skins are peeled off and the color of the water is so good, the price will exceed 100 million. ”
Tian Chuan didn't delay, went back to the car and took the angle grinder he bought from Tong Si'er, made a water supply system with iron wire and the infusion set he bought halfway, asked Liu Meiting for a bucket, put a bucket of water on two stacked stools, and made a water supply system. Turn on the angle grinder in the yard and start rubbing the stone skin on the surface of the jadeite.
He has a strong hand, and he is also skilled in using the angle grinder, holding the angle grinder in one hand and the stone in the other, squatting on the ground, bringing the stone close to the water flow of the infusion set, and rubbing it like that.
It only took half an hour for two pieces of sparkling red to appear in Wu Xinran's hands. Looking at these two pieces of jadeite arranged intuitively, it is far more impressive than imagined, Wu Xinran muttered: "One hundred million must not be sold, at least 130 million." ”
Tian Chuan asked, "Sister Wu, how do you see how I sell these two pieces of jadeite?" Do I go directly to the customer, or do I go to the auction?"
Wu Xinran was stunned and said: "Such a good thing, you may only encounter it once in a lifetime, are you really willing to sell it?"
Tian Chuan said: "I am not a person in the jewelry industry, and if this thing is in my hands, it is a pearl." And I'm short of money right now, so I want to change hands. Do you have any ideas for this?"
Wu Xinran said: "You don't want to ask other people's opinions? The price I said may not be reasonable. ”
Tian Chuan said: "You see, I'm so casual here with Sister Ting, I am not an outsider with her, I believe in her vision of making friends." ”
At this time, Liu Meiting said: "Xinran, you just treat this thing as mine, just give a reasonable market price." ”
Wu Xinran said: "My bid is real. It's just that this top-quality jadeite doesn't necessarily appear once a year, and the market price fluctuates greatly. If it is auctioned and attracts a large number of industry insiders and famous collectors, the price may be very high, maybe 200 million, but it may only be 100 million. The key depends on Tagawa's own choice. ”
Tian Chuan thought for a while and said, "I trust Sister Wu's judgment, if you want it, I will sell it to you first." Wu Xinran finally agreed to use 130 million yuan to buy these two pieces of jadeite.
Tian Chuan also talked about promising Tong Si'er to sell him first, and said to Wu Xinran: "Since I promised him, I have to call him." This kid just wanted to take advantage of me, and he would never buy it at the market price. ”
He immediately dialed Tong Si'er's phone and said, "Boss Tong, I completely cut open the two pieces of jadeite, and the whole piece is the same as the fracture." Now there is a friend who is willing to pay 150 million yuan, if you are interested, I will help you first. ”
Tong Si'er immediately said: "150 million is a real price, I really have the intention of receiving it." It's just that the cash is not handy, and the heart is weak. Thank you, Boss Tian. ”
After Tian Chuan hung up the phone, he handed the jade directly to Wu Xinran and said, "Sister Wu, now this is yours, when it is convenient, just call me 130 million into the account." Wu Xinran didn't talk nonsense, and called the accountant directly to pay.
After the matter was discussed, Tian Chuan said goodbye to Liu Meiting and wanted to go back to prepare for the delivery. Liu Meiting stopped him and said, "Brother Chuan, you are so uninteresting, you promised to accompany me to practice boxing, and you forgot about it after a while?"
Tian Chuan was helpless and said: "I'm about to eat, I'm hungry, where do I still have the strength to box." You can't get enough of the green vegetables and noodles here. ”
Liu Meiting had no choice but to call the kitchen to cook and send it, and specially asked for meat dishes by name.
Tian Chuan sat up straight in the tea room and said, "Sister Ting, now that you have gathered your mind, you can cook tea." ”
Then, in Wu Xinran's stunned look of surprise, Liu Meiting really packed up the tea set and began to cook the tea meticulously. She knows that Liu Meiting's cooking tea is not something that ordinary people can enjoy, only friends she values can have the opportunity to taste the tea she cooks, and she has to catch up with her in a good mood. And Tian Chuan was able to ask Liu Meiting to cook tea, and Liu Meiting was willing to do it seriously immediately, and saw that her glasses were shattered.
