Chapter 228: A Hundred Million Inheritance

Old mahogany not only grows for a long time, but also has been washed over hundreds of years after being cut down.

Now the old mahogany generally refers to the mahogany imported from Nanyang in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the old mahogany is wider, the brown eyes are slender, and the proportion is between red sandalwood and huanghuali.

Its precious and rare Cheng dù is second only to the golden silk nanmu, but there are seven here in Uncle Long.

Now Liu Dong's nerves are a little numb after seeing so many precious woods that are usually extremely rare, and even have basically disappeared from the market. So after seeing this cherished old mahogany, although I was surprised in my heart, I was not as shocked as I was at the beginning.

Further down from the old mahogany, there is the new mahogany, but compared with the old mahogany, which is only twenty or thirty centimeters in diameter, these new mahogany not only have a thicker diameter at breast height, but also have a lot more in number, with more than 50 roots.

After the new mahogany in the past, the next step is the black sour branch, which mainly includes large-leaved red sandalwood, also called Lu's black sandalwood and broad-leaved yellow sandalwood, also called South American sour branch. Uncle Long has a collection of nearly 200 here, all of which are the kind of big materials that are more than ten meters away and have a diameter at breast height of more than one meter.

After that, there are some other precious woods of the genus Ebony and Ebony that have gradually emerged over the years, such as red sandalwood, also called red sandalwood. Dalbergia austellari, Dalbergia from Burmese and so on. These logs are generally above 200 sticks, and they are also large pieces of wood with a diameter of more than one meter. In the 200-meter-long collection, this kind of wood occupies more than two-thirds. In total, there are at least more than 2,000 roots.

But the combined value of these two thousand roots of material is not as valuable as the most precious ones at the front! They are just a reserve made by Uncle Long for the future, after all, these woods have grown to such a large size. It takes a hundred years to make it possible.

Now though a lot. The price is also cheap. But when this kind of material is less, if you want, the time, energy and money spent will be dozens or even hundreds of times that of the current one.

"Okay, you've finished reading my wood collection!How do you feel?" After the two of them came to the end, Uncle Long turned his head and asked.

"Complicated, shocked, envious, and some jealous!" Liu Dong said honestly.

"Haha, that's what you want!" Uncle Long said with a smile.

"Xiaodong. I came with you for a few days, in addition to letting you put the jade rough, there are two main things, the first is to let you know my apprentices. Second, I'm going to let you see my wood collection!"

After finishing speaking, the old man's nostalgic gaze slowly swept over the wood again, and then he said with emotion: "When I go abroad, all the wood I collect will be handed over to you!"

"Uncle Long, I'm ......!"

"Wait until I'm done!" Uncle Long waved his hand.

"Of course, I can't give it to you for nothing, just give me 100 million, just when you buy it from me!"

After listening to the old man's words. Liu Dong was very moved in his heart, according to the old man's collection of precious wood. Not to mention 100 million, if you really want to sell it, 200 million will be sold, and even if it is auctioned, there will be more.

"Uncle Long, 100 million is too little, I can't take advantage of you! Otherwise, I'll give you 200 million, if not, 200 million is still too little, or 300 million!"

"Hehe, okay! I know that your kid is making money gambling on stones now, and it doesn't matter if you take two or three hundred million. But if I ask you for 100 million, I want 100 million, and I'm an old man who has half of his neck buried, so why do you want so much money? And my son doesn't earn less than me!"

"If I didn't know that your kid has the same stinky temper as a stubborn donkey, and gave it to you for nothing, if you definitely don't want it, I don't want 100 million!"

Of course, you can't ask for it, if Liu Dong really accepts it, he will go over with his own conscience. Such a big debt of affection is on the body. I can't sleep well at night.

"Xiaodong, I will sell you 100 million yuan, and I still have one more condition that you need to agree!" Saying this, the expression on the old man's face became stern.

"Uncle Long, if you have any orders, just say it! As long as I can do it, I will never refuse!"

After listening to Liu Dong's words, the old man nodded with satisfaction.

"In this furniture factory, I have 36 apprentices, 216 apprentices, and 258 orphans I adopted, plus some of my apprentices' families, and Zhou Jun and the four of them, a total of 658 people. I hope that when I go abroad, you will still be able to let them work and live here, and if they have not made any serious mistakes, you will not drive them away!

Looking at the eagerness in the old man's eyes, Liu Dong nodded heavily, "Don't worry, Uncle Long! I promise you! I will never drive them away!"

These people have been cultivated and taught by Uncle Long, and they are all good at making antique furniture, and they can't be invited outside, how can Liu Dong drive them away!

And he also plans to make the brand of Taiyi Pavilion fine handmade wood carving bigger and stronger, it is when talents are needed, and these people who master traditional woodworking skills are the most valuable talents.

"Okay, I'm sure you won't break your promise!" The old man patted Liu Dong on the shoulder happily.

"Never!" Liu Dong said with a firm expression.

"Hmm!" nodded, "Xiaodong, you should go here more in the past few days, you have a car anyway! Come over a few more times, get acquainted with Zhou Jun and my apprentices, and understand each other clearly! It is also convenient for you to take over the factory in the next step!"

"I'm going to go abroad on August 10th, so I'll try my best to help you get acquainted with the staff, operation mode, and sales channels of Taiyi Pavilion and this furniture factory in the ten days under me. ”

"By the way, tomorrow, you will go to my Taiyi Pavilion again, remember to go early! I will introduce you to some wood carving techniques that have been cooperating with our Taiyi Pavilion before. After I'm gone, you'll have to contact them yourself!"

"Alas, this matter is really complicated to deal with, I should have explained it to you earlier!" Speaking of this, the old man's face showed a trace of annoyance.

"Don't worry, Uncle Long, I will do my best to master the operation process of Taiyi Pavilion in the past ten days!" Liu Dong said with a serious expression.

Originally, he still thought that after the Quancheng Gambling Stone Fair was over, he would go to the people contacted by Li Lao to repair the "Crane Painting" and Huang Binhong's "Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains" for himself, "It seems that I can only find another opportunity in the future!"

"Well, it's good if you have faith!"

"Let's go, let's get out!"

By the time the two of them came out of the warehouse, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon. Because the wine was too hard at noon, Zhao Zhiguang and the others were still asleep.

Seeing this, Uncle Long said hello to Zhao Zhiguang's wife Guo Huifen again, and then drove away with Liu Dong.

By the time Liu Dong and Uncle Long had just returned to Taiyi Pavilion in the Antique City, Mu Gang had already walked over with the mobile phone that Liu Dong had left here to charge.

"Xiaodong, someone called you two or three times just now, but I don't remember the name because it's too awkward, take a look!"

"Really!"

After answering, Liu Dong took the mobile phone. Then I checked the caller ID, and it was an unfamiliar number.

"Xiaodong, if you have something to do, you can go and get busy! Just remember to come over early tomorrow!"

"I know, Uncle Long!Then I'll go first!" After saying hello to Mu Gang, Liu Dong walked out with his mobile phone.

After a moment's thought, he dialed the unfamiliar number. And almost less than two seconds after he dialed it, the right person was already connected!

"Is it Mr. Liu Dong?"

"It's me, who are you?" Listening to the other party's joyful voice on the phone, Liu Dong felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it for a while.

"Great! Mr. Liu Dong, I'm Wichai Sawan Susi, do you remember?"

"Oh, I remember you!" The nine pieces of wool that had risen nine times on the first day of the tournament had been bought from this Burmese man named Wichai Sawan Susi, so he was quite impressed.

"What? Mr. Wichai Sawan Susi called me, is there something wrong?"

"Yes, Mr. Liu! I have a big business here that I want to talk to Mr. Liu, isn't it Mr. Liu, does he have time for us to have dinner together in the evening?"

"Big business!?" Liu Dong was stunned in his heart, he was not very familiar with this Burmese, but the curiosity in his heart still made Liu Dong want to hear what the big business in his mouth was?

Perhaps sensing Liu Dong's silence on the phone, Wichai Sawan Suxi hurriedly continued: "Mr. Liu, it's the jade rough business. Mr. Liu is interested. ”

"Jade Rough Stone!" Liu Dong's heart moved.

"Mr. Wichai, I still have some time to ...... at night!"

"Great, Mr. Liu! I'll book a table at the Crown Hotel at eight o'clock tonight, and Mr. Liu will be invited to come at that time!"

"Well, I know, I'll be there on time at eight o'clock in the evening!" Liu Dong then hung up the phone after chatting with the other party for a few more words.

However, Liu Dong did not know what Wichai Sawan Susi's wool business really contained. However, at this moment, he is planning to open a jewelry company, and Liu Dong, who is interested in jadeite rough stones, is still very willing to listen to it.

Looking at the time on the phone, it is not yet six o'clock, there are still two hours before eight o'clock in the evening, the time is still very early, after going home, I have to come out again, Liu Dong also feels troublesome.

"Why don't you just take a stroll around this antique city, I haven't visited it for a long time, maybe I can still figure out a good thing!" Liu Dong quickly made a decision in his heart.

August is one of the hottest months in Dong Son province, so people usually come out at five or six o'clock when they go shopping. Of course, people who come to the antique city are no exception, and almost every day from 5 pm to 9 pm is the most lively time in the antique city. (To be continued......)
