Chapter 41: The Consequences of Being Famous
Through this exchange, Zhao Mingyang and Li Xiaotian found that Li Xiaotian was a very funny person. After talking for a while, we became friends. Li Xiaotian, a native of Tengchong, Yunnan, invited me to his house in Yunnan. It is said that there are more wool merchants there than here, and the wool should be better and cheaper. If I want to open a jewelry company, I can go to them and buy jadeite wool. He knows a few big wool dealers who can introduce them to me. It is also guaranteed to be both cheap and good quality! Zhao Mingyang happily accepted his invitation. Said to go when the public market is over.
In this way, a few of them talked and laughed all the way, and looked at the wool all the way. Xia Yi, who was walking, suddenly pointed to a piece of wool and asked, "Mingyang, what do you think of this piece?" Xia Yi pointed to a small piece of wool, which looked more than ten kilograms. There is a small patch of pine flowers on it. Zhao Mingyang walked over and looked at it with his special ability, and there was a piece of bean green jade in it. There is a weight of five or six pounds, and it can produce two pairs of bracelets. It's worth more than 200,000 yuan, and if it's not too expensive, you can gamble on it.
So Zhao Mingyang nodded and said, "It's okay, if it's not too expensive, you can buy it." Saying that, Zhao Mingyang asked the boss: "Boss, how much is this?" The boss looked at it and said, "80,000!" Look how good this pine flower is. Before Zhao Mingyang could answer, a person next to him directly took 80,000 yuan and put it in front of the boss and said, "I want this piece!" ”
As he spoke, he took the piece of wool and left. Zhao Mingyang was a little baffled, but he didn't think much about it, thinking that he had been optimistic about the wool in advance and hadn't had time to ask the price! Xia Yi said a little unhappily: "How can this person be like this!" I didn't see that we were negotiating with the boss. Really! ”
Zhao Mingyang smiled and didn't say anything. I continued to look at the wool. At this glance, I really found a few good jadeite. Especially the red fei with a high ice species, that is called a beautiful one. It's still close to reaching the glass species.
And it's not small, weighing more than ten kilograms. There are more than a dozen bracelets! Look at the surface of this piece of wool There is a python belt, but there is no pine flower. There was a crack next to the python belt that extended more than ten centimeters deep, dividing the small piece of bean green jadeite inside into two halves. This is actually a rare mutant jadeite.
I looked at the other two smaller pieces of wool, and they were two good hibiscus seeds. The jadeite inside adds up to more than ten catties. Zhao Mingyang first hugged the two small ones out and asked, "Boss, how much are these two pieces?" The boss looked at it and said, "The little brother has a good eye!" These two pieces are the best of the bunch. If you buy two pieces together, you can buy 700,000 yuan! ”
Zhao Mingyang was about to ask the price of the large piece of wool with red fei in it, when a bank card was handed over. Out of nowhere, a person said: "Boss, I want these two 700,000 yuan." At this time, Zhao Mingyang finally noticed that something was wrong and looked at this person. I found that this was a middle-aged fat man, who looked a little familiar, but I just couldn't remember where I had seen it. And the person who bought the bean green seed just now is also a little familiar.
The boss was obviously stunned by the sudden appearance of the person, and did not reach out to take the bank card. The middle-aged fat man was anxious and shouted, "Boss, didn't you hear!" I said I want these two pieces of wool. Hurry up and swipe your card! I've got something to do! ”
The boss was yelled at by him and reacted. Apologetically, he said, "I'm sorry! This gentleman. These two pieces of wool are the first to be taken by this little brother. I won't trade with you until he says no. It's the rule. Zhao Mingyang glanced at the boss gratefully, and then remembered who this fat man and the person just now were. They were the two people who were talking the most fiercely when I saw me calve the stone just now.
At this time, Li Xiaotian also came over and said, "What Boss Li said is good! I'll tell my grandfather about it when I get back!" Boss Li saw Li Xiaotian and hurriedly said, "Young Master, why are you here too?" ”
"Oh! It was my grandfather who asked me to come and see it. This Mr. Zhao is my friend! He wants to start a jewelry company, and you can contact him often in the future. Fame, this Boss Li is a wool merchant in our area. He has a lot of nice wool at home! ”
Zhao Mingyang smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Boss Li, and said, "Thank you Boss Li just now!" My name is Zhao Mingyang. In the future, I will inevitably go to Boss Li's house to disturb! Boss Li smiled and said, "Welcome! You run a jewelry company, and I'm a wool merchant. In the future, everyone should take care of each other! ”
After they finished speaking, the middle-aged fat man had long since disappeared. Zhao Mingyang smiled bitterly, pointed to the piece of red fei and asked, "How much is this piece?" Boss Li looked at the large piece of wool that Zhao Mingyang pointed to and said, "Mr. Zhao, don't hide it!" This piece of wool has been with me for a long time. I've seen a lot of people, and there is jadeite in it, but the quality is not too good! And this crack has penetrated so deeply, I'm afraid that the jadeite inside has been almost destroyed. I advise you to look at something else! ”
Zhao Mingyang shook his head and said, "Thank you Boss Li for your kindness!" I just want to bet that the jadeite inside hasn't been damaged too much. In business, let's ask Boss Li to say a price! Boss Li shook his head and sighed lightly and said, "Okay! Then you can give a purchase price! 300,000! Well, I nodded and said, "I want all three." Swipe your card. ”
After swiping the card to pay the bill, Zhao Mingyang looked at the table below. It's almost 5 o'clock, and the doors are just over an hour away. I'm going to find a stone dissolver to unravel this large piece of red feather. Because this piece of wool is too big, it is difficult to bring it back with half a person. Just as I was about to walk to the calciner area, I heard a few people arguing about the quality of a piece of wool. Curiously, he walked over and looked at the wool they were arguing about, which was a piece of wool weighing more than 40 catties of white salt sand husk. I saw that most of the wool was covered with python patterns and pine flowers, what is there to argue about such a good wool? When I looked closely, I found that it was covered with small locks. No wonder they argued.
The man on the left said: "This piece of wool is so good, although there are some small strands on it, but there is still something to gamble." But the man on the right said, "Haven't you heard of the saying that you don't bet on small dreadlocks and bet on big dreadlocks?" There are so many small locks on it, not to mention all of them seeping in. Even if it seeped in, one or two jadeites inside were all destroyed. No matter how good the performance is, there is a hairy use! ”
Neither of these two men could convince anyone. The man on the right said, "Since you said that there is gambling, then why don't you buy it and cut it open!" The man on the left said, "You make me stupid!" This piece of wool costs 500,000 yuan! I just said it was gambling, not that I wanted to bet! ”
Zhao Mingyang was also curious about what was in this piece of wool, so he used his special ability to take a look. It doesn't matter if you look at it, you can't take your eyes off it. There's actually a glass smurf in there! It's been destroyed, but it's only a small part. And many more are complete. There are as many as five or six catties of complete ones alone. The piece of wool has been opened by someone, revealing a black fog. The window should be 2 centimeters thick. If you go down another centimeter, you will see jadeite.
I'm afraid it won't be here, but in the dark marked area! I don't know if I'm lucky or if this seller is unlucky! Thinking of this, Zhao Mingyang no longer hesitated to take out his bank card and said, "How much is this?" The boss glanced at Zhao Mingyang, looked at the wool again, and said, "This piece is 500,000!" ”
Zhao Mingyang handed over the bank card and said, "I want it!" Zhao Mingyang just finished speaking, one of the two people who was still arguing just now said: "Wait a minute, this piece of wool is what we saw first!" I didn't say I wouldn't buy it. Why do you have to buy it when you come! Boss, I want this piece! As he spoke, he handed over the bank card.
The boss was a little embarrassed and said, "This gentleman, you have been here for almost half an hour. Except for asking the price, just arguing there. You didn't say you wanted to buy it! The man said forcefully: "I didn't say I wouldn't buy it!" I don't care, this piece of wool is the first thing I like. You're going to buy it for me! Otherwise, I will sue the organizer for refusing to sell! ”
The boss looked at me with some embarrassment and said, "Look at this little brother, why don't you give it to him?" Zhao Mingyang looked at the man with a gloomy face and did not speak. Chen Le and Li Li are ready to beat people at any time. Xia Yi also came over and pointed at the man and scolded: "Bastard, you don't want to mess around in Guangzhou." Dare to spread wild on my land! ”
Li Xiaotian didn't speak, just talked on the phone. The middle-aged man was a little scared, but he still held on there. His companion pulled him and said, "Old Liu, what's wrong with you?" You're not optimistic about that piece of wool! Why are you going to buy it all of a sudden! "You know what!" was called Lao Liu's reply.
Li Xiaotian came back after the phone call and said, "I advise you to leave early, otherwise it won't be so easy to talk about later." After that, he ignored him. He made a reassuring gesture to me. Although Zhao Mingyang didn't understand, he didn't ask much. Five minutes later, several people came from the organizers of the conference. When he came over, he asked, "Who is making other people's deals?" Li Xiaotian walked over and whispered a few words to those people. The middle-aged man was taken away. Later, I heard that he was fined 100,000 yuan and was never allowed to participate in all jade-related activities in Pingzhou. This matter was also reported to Pingzhou Jade.
