Chapter 100 It is necessary to be famous, but not too big
Before ten o'clock in the morning, Zheng Quangui's twelve jadeite wool materials were sold, and Meng Songhai bought five of them, with a total transaction price of 450,000 yuan.
Before the auction began, Meng Songhai learned from Zheng Quangui's mouth that the purchase cost of these jadeite wool materials was as high as more than one million, and the total selling price was 450,000, which means that Zheng Quangui lost more than 550,000 yuan.
"I want to drive a little." Meng Song patted Zheng Quangui's arm lightly and comforted him softly.
"Buying gambling stones, there are profits and losses, I think very openly." Zheng Quangui smiled heartily, "I won't talk to you, I'll go to the bank with these bosses to transfer money first." ”
"I'll go with you." Meng Songhai was ready to immediately transfer the payment for the purchase of five jadeite wool materials to Zheng Quangui.
"Don't go and join in the fun, go back, and when you have time, earn me the money."
Meng Songhai did not insist on his opinion, and allowed Zheng Quangui and the four jade merchants to go to the bank to transfer money.
After completing the transfer, Zheng Quangui and the others returned to the courtyard at the door of Meng Songhai's house, and the four jade merchants, with the help of their companions, transported the jade wool they had just bought.
Seeing off the guests, Meng Songhai and Zheng Quangui sat in the living room drinking tea.
"Little Wuzi, there is something I want to ask for your opinion."
"Say it."
"You say, how about I open a jadeite processing factory?"
"Okay!" Meng Songhai said with a smile, "The risk of buying clear material processing is very small, and the profit is not bad." Also, I am optimistic about the appreciation space of jadeite, you now have the capital, you can buy more materials, even if you do not process, put a few years, the income is definitely higher than the money in the bank to eat interest. ”
Zheng Quangui glanced at Meng Songhai with a smile and asked, "If I open a jade processing factory, then we will become competitors, are you not afraid of affecting your business?" ”
"You're overthinking." Meng Songhai smiled and shook his head, "Seriously, I hope that Ruili has more bosses who operate jadeite processing, after a long time, jadeite merchants on Hong Kong Island will first think of Ruili when they think of coming to the mainland to buy jadeite jewelry, and at that time, the market will be bigger, and business will become better." ”
"If you think so, then I'm relieved." Zheng Quangui said happily.
Meng Songhai took a sip of tea and joked: "Since you are going to run a jadeite processing factory yourself, should I return the jadeite wool you just sold to me?" ”
"No need. In the short term, my jadeite processing factory can't be opened, and there is enough time to buy bright materials. In the future, I can buy some freshly cut ingredients from other people who gamble on stones, and I can still pick up the leaks without encountering strong competitors......"
At noon that day, Zheng Quangui stayed at Meng Songhai's house for lunch.
Just after lunch, two men carried a gambling stone weighing more than 80 catties into the courtyard, followed by two people.
"Boss Meng, help me take a look." A jade middleman who had dealt with Meng Songhai before said with a smile.
"This gambling stone is good." Meng Songhai glanced at it a few times, smiled and said a word, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and gave one to each person, he didn't smoke, he didn't light one for himself.
After the smoke was distributed, Meng Songhai personally took a basin of water and drenched the gambling stone that had just been moved into the yard.
Mao Zhenyang was very discerning, knowing that Meng Songhai wanted to see the gambling stone, so he prepared a strong flashlight.
For ordinary people, a piece of fully covered seed water, in a dark environment, the effect of watching with a strong flashlight is far better than the effect of looking in the sun, but Meng Songhai is not an ordinary person, even if he does not apply the magic power of "wisdom and treasure", his vision of gambling stones can be regarded as the world's top level.
After looking at it for a while, Meng Songhai asked lightly, "How much do you want to sell?" ”
"Three hundred thousand."
"Huh!" Meng Songhai shook his head with a smile, stood up, looked at the man who made the bid, and said with a straight face, "I don't like to bargain very much, tell me the real price, if it is too different from my estimate, I won't bargain, I will trouble you to move this stone." ”
As early as a few months ago, not long after Meng Songhai first came to Ruili, he realized that as his reputation in Ruili Gambling Stone Store became more and more famous, whether he was buying gambling stones in the gambling stone shop or the owner delivering them to his door, the seller's price was very high, and some people even asked for a sky-high price.
In order to seek wealth, Meng Songhai always bargains with a calm seller, and when the price is not too excessive, he will use his magic power to see through the situation inside the gambling stone before making the final decision.
When his own jade processing factory opened, Meng Songhai basically did not cut the gambling stones he bought outside, he didn't want outsiders to see the performance of the gambling stones he cut, the purpose of doing this was not to save the cost of calcing, but not to let others know how outstanding his "vision" was to look at the gambling stones.
Meng Songhai needs fame, but he doesn't want his reputation to be too big, after he has a certain reputation, the businessman who runs the gambling stone business is willing to provide him with good goods at the bottom of the box, and someone will take the initiative to deliver them to him, if so, his reputation is too big, and he has become recognized as the "gambling stone king", which will greatly increase the cost of his purchase of gambling stones.
In the gambling stone shop, there is no gambling stone with a clear price, and the transaction price of most gambling stones is less than half of the seller's opening price.
If Meng Songhai becomes the "king of gambling stones", then he will encounter a good gambling stone, after seeing it with the magic power of discerning treasure, he knows how much the jade is worth, when he decides to buy this gambling stone, the seller will offer a very high price because of his reputation, in the process of bargaining, he will suffer, and there may even be other buyers competing with him for a gambling stone, after all, the gambling stone king is optimistic about the gambling stone, it is worth gambling.
In order not to let outsiders know that the probability of the gambling stone he bought is very high, Meng Songhai specially warned the employees of the jade processing factory not to tell outsiders what happened in the factory, especially the performance of the gambling stone he bought after cutting, and if found, he would be fired directly.
Meng Songhai also did not want the employees of the jade processing factory to treat him as a "gambling stone king", for this reason, he did some things, he often relied on his own naked eye, to buy some gambling stones that are not very expensive, after these gambling stones are cut, lose more, earn less.
Although Meng Songhai regarded Zheng Quangui as his good friend, he would avoid Zheng Quangui when he unlocked some gambling stones that he had seen with his "Wisdom Treasure Knowledge" to ensure that they could rise sharply, he didn't want Zheng Quangui to see it, and he also told Zheng Quangui that after seeing the performance of the gambling stone he bought after it was cut, don't tell others.
In fact, even in the face of Meng Guoqiang and other family members, Meng Songhai also left a hand, and among the gambling stones that he had seen with his discernment, most of them were placed under the bed in the bedroom, and a small part were placed in the Qiankun ring.
Of course, Meng Songhai did not intend to treat these long-term unsolved gambling stones as heirlooms, in the future, he will find an opportunity to unravel these gambling stones without his family knowing, turn the gambling stones into clear materials, and then wait for the right opportunity to process them into jade jewelry.
……
Li Xiaoyou asked, "Boss Meng, how much do you say?" ”
Meng Songhai said lightly: "You are sellers, you bid, it is more appropriate, the price is too high, I can't afford it, so I won't buy it, if I bid, the bid is too low, you will be angry." ”
"Boss Meng, you are a big boss, how can you not afford it, you can bid, no matter how low it is, I won't be angry."
Meng Songhai hesitated for a moment, then squatted down again, looking at the gambling stone placed on the ground.
"300,000, this price is too high, I definitely can't accept it, but this gambling stone is very good, in the past few days, I haven't seen such a good ......"
Meng Songhai muttered a few words to himself, and decided to use the "Wisdom Treasure Knowledge".
After seeing the performance inside the gambling stone, the expression on Meng Songhai's face did not change at all, and he secretly said to himself: "Fame is still beneficial, otherwise, the seller will not take the initiative to send such a good piece of jadeite to me......
Meng Songhai stood up, looked at the man who was chatting with him just now, and said, "This gambling stone is not bad, but 300,000 yuan is too high, and I will bid 100,000 yuan at the most." ”
"Boss Meng, 100,000 is too low, it's not easy to transport such a big stone from Myanmar to Ruili, you can add a little."
"Shipping doesn't cost much." Meng Songhai smiled, "If it is a brick material, even if there are hundreds or even thousands of catties, and the price is 10,000 yuan, I will not pay for it." ”
"This stone must be able to cut high-grade jadeite, how can it be compared to brick material...... I know that Boss Meng is a cheerful person, and I won't say more, 220,000 yuan, sold to you. At this price, you definitely have to earn, and if you are lucky, after cutting, it is not difficult to earn two or three million. ”
"Luck, how many people have such good luck?" Meng Songhai shook his head with a smile.
"Boss Meng has such luck."
Meng Songhai smiled noncommittally, stared at the gambling stone for a few moments, and said in a deep voice: "Add another 50,000, 150,000, this price is the highest price." ”
"This is too low, Boss Meng, you can add a little more."
Meng Song smiled faintly and said, "150,000 yuan, I think this price is already very high, you must have a lot of money." ”
"Okay, 150,000, I'll sell it to you." The seller smiled and shook hands with Meng Songhai.
Handshake deals.
After shaking hands, Meng Songhai looked at Meng Guoqiang with a smile and said, "Second brother, please help me accompany this Boss Wu to the bank and transfer 150,000 yuan to him." ”
"Okay!" Meng Guoqiang nodded in response.
"Boss Meng, I'm going to transfer money with your second brother." Boss Wu said with a smile.
When Boss Wu left, a companion accompanied him, and the remaining two remained in the courtyard.
Zheng Quangui took a strong flashlight from Meng Songhai's hand, squatted down, and looked at it carefully while shining the light.
After a while, Zheng Quangui glanced at Meng Songhai, shook his head with a smile and said: "Songhai, this stone is very gambling, 150,000 is too high, let me buy it, I don't dare to buy it." ”
"Except for the first night back in Ruili, in the past few days, I have been making a small fight, and today I made a big gamble, and I lost it, and I also admitted it."
Meng Songhai replied to Zheng Quangui with a smile, then looked at the two strangers standing in the courtyard and said, "Two big brothers, let's go into the house and have a cup of tea." ”
"Boss Meng, excuse me."
The two people were not polite, followed Meng Songhai into the house, sat at the table of the eight immortals, and drank Pu'er tea.
