Chapter Eighty-Nine: Selling Gems
This sudden ringing made everyone startled. Everyone looked at each other and found that the phone rang from the company's appraiser, Master Wang.
Zhu Manlou wanted to scold people to see whose phone rang at this inappropriate time, but when he saw that it was Master Wang's phone, he had to swallow the dirty words: "Master Wang, you answer the phone." ”
It's not that Zhu Manlou has any taboos against Master Wang, but because no matter how Bafu Jewelry Company will develop in the future, they must leave a senior appraiser before they have the possibility of turning over.
Master Wang himself was a little embarrassed, he wanted to take a look, and if he knew who was calling, he would cut off the call first, and then call back, but when he saw the caller ID, he still connected the phone, obviously this was a key call: "Hey, what's the matter?"
After a few seconds, I heard Master Wang suddenly blurt out: "What!"
This exclamation made everyone present look sideways. After listening to the mobile phone, Master Wang stood up suddenly, put down the phone, turned to Zhu Manlou and said: "Chairman, Zhonghai General Store has received twenty-five top-grade natural gemstones, the amount is too large, they can't call the shots, ask us for instructions." ”
Zhu Manlou was taken aback and asked, "Twenty-five top-grade natural gemstones?" This news made him a little indigestible, too stunned!
After a while, Zhu Manlou finally reacted, this was their chance to turn over the Eight Blessings Jewelry, no matter what, he had to hold on to it.
I saw Zhu Manlou hurriedly stand up and say, "Let them keep the guests." Mr. Wang and Mr. Li, you come with me to take a look and identify whether it is genuine. Also, to prepare the finances, I want to know the amount of liquidity we have in case we need to use it at any time. ”
Bafook Jewelry Main Store is located in Nandu Road, the most prosperous area in Zhonghai City, which is the CBD of Zhonghai City. The main store of Bafu Jewelry, located on the first floor of Juding Building, covers an area of more than 200 square meters, mainly engaged in sales, customized gold jewelry, diamonds, jade and other high-end jewelry.
At this time, Yi Xingchen was sitting in the reception room of the Bafu Jewelry Main Store, with Wen Fan, the manager of the head office, personally serving the top tea, and the beautiful uniform clerk waiting on the side, and he was in a good mood.
Yi Xingchen actually didn't expect that he came to Bafu Jewelry and wanted to communicate with the person in charge about buying and selling gemstones, but without saying a few words, he was immediately invited to a VIP room by the store manager Wen Fan to enjoy the highest membership treatment.
This is a world of difference compared to the previous situation. Before coming to Bafu Jewelry, Yi Xingchen had also been to two jewelry stores, but Yi Xingchen was kicked out without even taking out the gems, and he looked at Yi Xingchen with a clear look of seeing a liar.
This strong contrast made Yi Xingchen have a preliminary good impression of Bafu Jewelry.
After receiving such a courtesy, Yi Xingchen naturally took out the twenty-five natural gems with a smile on his face, and lined them up on the table in front of him one by one, so that the store manager of Bafu Jewelry could watch and identify them at will. The store manager, Wen Fan, seemed very excited when he saw these gems, but he still told Yi Xingchen conservatively that he could not estimate the gems and wanted to call their national expert appraiser.
Yi Xingchen also wanted to know the value of the gem, and learned from the store manager Wen Fan that he only needed to wait for about fifteen minutes, so he stayed.
Wen Fan's words are true, the efficiency of Bafu Jewelry is very high, only after Yi Xingchen drank a cup of tea, at the door of the reception room, three people came in - Zhu Manlou, and the two major appraisers of Bafu Jewelry, Wang Lao and Li Lao.
"Xiaowen, where is the gem?" asked Wang Lao as soon as he came.
This seemed to be a bit of a lack of etiquette, and Yi Xingchen raised his eyebrows because of this, but he could still understand that professionals have a sensitivity to ignore everything around them for things that belong to his field, which makes Yi Xingchen even happier, because it proves that his gems will be able to meet people who know the goods.
However, the store manager Wen Fan is better at external reception work, and he is more comprehensive. He immediately stepped forward and introduced to the three senior executives of the company: "Chairman, Mr. Wang, Mr. Li, this is Mr. Yi who owns these natural gemstones." ”
"Hello, Mr. Yi. Zhu Manlou smiled and stretched out his hand to Yi Xingchen.
After the two shook hands, Zhu Manlou said straight to the point: "Can we take a look at your gems." ”
"Please!" Yi Xingchen said, pointing to the gem in front of him.
Zhu Manlou motioned for the two veteran appraisers to come forward to identify the gemstones. The two appraisers immediately put on special gloves and took out the identification tools they had prepared in advance, each picked up a gemstone, and began to work.
After half an hour, the identification of twenty-five natural gemstones was completed, and Wang Lao and Li Lao nodded to Zhu Manlou. Seeing this, Zhu Manlou's heart was suddenly excited, this is really a natural gemstone, and it is also a top product, which is really too important for Bafu Jewelry!
"Mr. Yi, I don't know if you are interested in selling these 25 gems? If you are interested in selling, we are willing to buy all of them according to the purchase price of the rough stones in the market. Zhu Manlou said.
Yi Xingchen asked: "Okay, you say a specific price, if it is appropriate, I will sell it all to you." ”
Zhu Manlou smiled and said: "Among the twenty-five gemstones, ruby, pigeon's blood red, moderate intensity, uniform color, sapphire, clear and transparent, beautiful and flawless, and purple gemstones...... Twenty-five natural gemstones, and we are willing to buy them for $500,000 each, or $12.5 million. ”
Yi Xingchen didn't answer immediately, he was thinking and asked, "Shouldn't a natural gemstone be a few million yuan?"
Seeing this, Zhu Manlou smiled and explained: "The reason why natural gemstone necklaces can be sold for millions or even tens of millions of dollars is not that the gemstones themselves have such an expensive value. Its price, in fact, is the price of the finished product, which is a kind of value-added added by top jewelry designers, top processing masters, and publicity means. A combination of factors can lead to a high price. ”
Zhu Manlou's words are actually very realistic, and there is no element of deceiving Yi Xingchen. In fact, many high-priced gemstones are sold for one price and purchased for another, and there is even a huge difference in value between the two prices.
Yi Xingchen thought about it carefully, and also accepted Zhu Manlou's explanation, and said: "Your explanation is very reasonable, it proves your sincerity, I accept this price, these twenty-five gems, I will sell them to you." ”
