Chapter 340: Precious Stones and Precious Wood

?…… Burmese golden camphor, also known as mountain fragrant fruit, is a kind of broad-leaved tree that grows in the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia! Burmese golden camphor takes at least 50 years from growth to maturity!!

Moreover, the hardness of the golden camphor wood is relatively high, not easy to wear, very suitable for carving! At the same time, the golden camphor contains extremely heavy oil and iron, and it will emit a different smell of general wood when it is washed by a high-pressure water gun or polished at high speed, which is more special!

It is precisely because of such excellent characteristics that golden camphor has become the first choice for high-grade wood.

Needless to say, teak, a national treasure of Myanmar, has a straight, hard and delicate texture, a touch of grease on the surface of the wood, good dryness, high durability, the least expansion and contraction of all woods, and good dimensional stability. The wood grain is beautiful and elegant, and easy to process, making it one of the world's highest-grade woods.

Burmese wenge wood, with sand and stone heart, it takes 150 ~ 200 years to become a talent, and there are not many straight trees in Burmese wenge, so the yield is low. The people of Beijing are accustomed to calling Burmese wenge wood old chicken wings, which is the top grade of wenge wood. It is also a rare and precious wood.

As for the red sour branch, although it is not the 'old mahogany' that is often referred to in the past, it is also very valuable. Burmese ebony is also one of the high-grade woods.

Liu Dong now has the Taiyi Pavilion Wood Company. The demand for these high-quality woods is very high. And these high-grade woods are decades. Even precious tree species that can only be grown for hundreds of years, now after nearly hundreds of years of development, these timbers are getting less and less, and their value is getting higher and higher. And it just so happens that you can also launder the money in your hands.

"Moreover, I want all the things I bought this time to be good, not defective!" he glanced at Wichai Sawan Susi. Liu Dong continued: "The jadeite rough must have python bands, pine flowers and ringworm, which can obviously produce green characteristics; the purity, transparency and color of the red sapphire must be above the middle grade, and I don't want low-grade gemstones; the DBH of golden camphor and wenge must be more than 20 centimeters, the DBH of teak must be more than 2 meters, and the DBH of red sour branches, black acid branches and ebony must be more than 40 centimeters!"

"As long as I want these few things, the level can meet my requirements, how many do I want?" Liu Dong said in a solemn voice as he stared at Wichai Sawan Suxi.

After listening to Liu Dong's words, Wichai Sawan Susi nodded, now he is not worried about Liu Dong's ability to pay. And jadeite and ruby sapphire are no problem, as long as he has money, he can get them. However, golden camphor and wenge wood are not easy to find, not only do they grow slowly, but because they have been cut down too much, there are now too many of them even in Myanmar. Even if Liu Dong only has a diameter of 20 centimeters at breast height, it is not too easy to find. However, the northern part of Myanmar is densely forested, and if you want to find it, you can always find it.

As for the remaining sorrel and ebony, it is not too difficult.

"Brother Liu, the things you want are of a high value, I'm afraid I have to scrape together 120 million US dollars, it's not too easy! I need time to prepare!"

"In addition, the family is not up to me alone, you want too many things, and the preliminary preparations will occupy a lot of funds, so you need to pay a part of the deposit first, Brother Liu!"

"The deposit is deserved, there is no problem with this!" Liu Dong nodded. For such a large transaction, it is natural to have a deposit, otherwise if you don't want it, people will lose a lot.

"Time is ......!" After thinking for a while, Wichai Sawan Susi said: "What do you think of March next year? It is the time when the Myanmar public market begins, and at that time, I believe that Brother Liu will also go to Myanmar, and you will be able to inspect the goods at that time!"

The so-called Myanmar public market has three times in a year, namely March, June and November, which Liu Dong knows very well. Moreover, he will definitely go to next year's Burma public market, and there is still half a year between now and March next year, and half a year is just right, which is enough time for Vichai Sawan Susi to collect the things he wants.

"Okay, it's March next year!" Liu Dong nodded.

"As for the price, I will use the market price to buy it, I believe that this price should not make the Wichai brothers suffer!"

After listening to Liu Dong's words, Wichai Sawan Susi smiled, with their family's status in Myanmar, such a large purchase is guaranteed, and they can get what Liu Dong wants at a price two to three percent lower than the market price. And if Liu Dong buys at the market price, then they will make a lot of money.

"Brother Liu, I wish us a happy cooperation!" said Vichai Sawan Susi with a smile.

"Happy cooperation!" Liu Dong said the same.

Although this cooperation seems to have made Wichai Sawan Susi a lot of money, but this is indeed Liu Dong's best choice now, otherwise if he is allowed to go to Myanmar to purchase by himself, it will be time-consuming and laborious, not to mention, I am afraid that those Burmese land snakes will not only not bargain at that time, but will kill him very much. There are even more people who don't even want to pay the bill, but want to empty gloves white wolf, and the history of blood and tears of Chinese jade merchants in Myanmar has long been told to Liu Dong about this.

So, now he'd rather spend a little more money and get things done safely.

After talking to Wichai Sawan Suxi about the matter, the two chatted again, and Liu Dong sent the other party away.

And Mu Gang was tossed enough at sea, so he would have gone back to his room and slept.

And Liu Dong still remembered today's harvest in the sea, so after closing the door, he quickly returned to his room. But when he came back, Liu Dong was dumbfounded, he only cared about taking out the treasure from the two fossils, but he forgot the huge size of the two big guys.

Because the two fossils are connected together, it is a huge piece of bluestone, the longest place is close to eighteen meters, the widest place is also more than ten meters, and the thickness is also more than five meters.

Moreover, a boulder of such a size is at least 100 tons, and after taking it out, it is estimated that the entire floor is in danger of collapsing.

"It seems that the only way to untie it is after going back!" Liu Dong said secretly in his heart.

………………

Early the next morning, Liu Dong and Wichai Sawan Suxi drew up a contract, and after the signing was completed, Liu Dong signed a check for 50 million Huaxia coins and gave it to the other party, which was counted as a deposit for the transaction.

And get the check and the contract of Wichai Sawan Susi also immediately resigned to Liu Dong, Liu Dong's such a large purchase has made him no longer interested in continuing to play here, the beautiful money scene, and the possibility of improving the status of the family, so that Vichai Sawan Susi is eager to return to China, for the big deal in half a year.

Seeing this, Liu Dong, who also attached great importance to this deal, did not keep him, and at noon that day, Wichai Sawang Susi stepped on a direct plane from Qing-Dao to the magic capital, and from there flew directly to Yangon, the capital of Myanmar.

After sending Xie Zhonglin and Wichai Sawan Susi away, Liu Dong himself stayed on Qingdao Island, and he was going to stay here for a few more days, and when the turmoil caused by his last entrance examination subsided, he would return to Quancheng, otherwise the number of people who came to visit and called him would be enough to annoy him to death.

Moreover, when I came to the island city, I was busy with this and that, and I haven't even visited the antique market!

Therefore, after he saw off Wichai Sawan Susi at noon, at four o'clock in the afternoon, when the temperature outside was not too hot, he took Mu Gang and the two drove towards Changle Road, the largest antique market in the island city.

When Liu Dong and the two arrived, there were already a lot of bustling people here, and the day Liu Dong came was Saturday, just in time for the antique collection on Changle Road, so there were a lot of people.

After leaving the car outside, the two entered through an electronic security gate.

The history of Qingdao is not as thick as that of Quancheng, and it was not until the end of the Qing Dynasty that it became a German colony. It's only been a hundred years now, so the antique street here is not an old-fashioned wooden building like Quancheng, but a modern glass window and other doors.

And the scale of the antique street here is far less than that of Quancheng, there is only one street and a compound in the middle, but the place is small, but there are a lot of people who come here to Taobao to pick up leaks, after all, the island city is also a separate city in the national plan, there are many people who like antique collections, and there are many people with economic strength than prefecture-level cities. Therefore, the antique market here is very prosperous, and the antique market in the real island city is not limited to Changle Road.

Because it is a Saturday gathering, there are a lot of burdens today, and the shops next to it are also wide open to attract business.

When he walked here, in addition to the different buildings around him, Liu Dong almost had a feeling of returning to the Quancheng antique market.

Therefore, there was a slight expectation in his heart, eager to find a few things of sufficient weight, but after walking for less than five minutes, the expectation in Liu Dong's heart disappeared.

Relic Yuanguang looked at more than 20 stalls and more than a dozen shops, but he didn't even have a high-grade thing, the most valuable thing was a small blue and white bowl from the Guangxu official kiln, Liu Dong asked in the past, the price was 100,000 yuan, and he didn't wait for a bargain. TMD, now Jiaqing's official kiln blue and white bowl is not so expensive!

However, although it was not too smooth at first, after a few minutes, Liu Dong finally had a pleasant discovery.
