There is no proportional relationship between the thickness of the outer part of the tree and the "grid" in the middle of the tree. Someone once spent a huge amount of money to take down a tree that was thicker than the mouth of the bowl, but when it was opened, a large piece of white material, "grid" like a toothpick! I can't cry anymore.

This is a live tree gambling grid, and there is also a gambling method, which is to gamble with the big material that has become a root. This kind of gambling is smaller, and it is mostly a fun time to buy in the wood market. The material only exposes the cross-section at both ends, and the cross-section exposes the "grid", but the "grid" inside may not be consistent with the cross-section, and some will even disappear from the middle.

"Mr. Zhang's path is indeed wide enough!" Tang Yidao, "As long as the raw materials are fine, then it's easy to say." In terms of craftsmanship, I can see these two strings in your hand, the small holes are round, the polishing is delicate, and the pagoda is also very exquisite. ”

"Mr. Tang just has eyesight!" Zhang Lu put away his business card, "In this way, I will go to the market in the morning, and there will be business to discuss later, let's contact us at noon, please Mr. Tang must appreciate the light!" In fact, I also want to do some antique business, expand the scope of business, and then our cooperation can be deeper! ”

"Okay, then I'll get in touch at noon!" Tang Yi nodded.

After Zhang Lu left, Wen Jia smiled on the side, "Do you think this guy is reliable?" ”

"Whether it's reliable or not, you have to try it to know." Tang Yi lit a cigarette and narrowed his eyes.

"What can you try in one meal? Ay? You wouldn't want to go to Hainan Qiongdao, would you? Wen Jia exclaimed.

Tang Yi raised his hand and walked forward, "More than ten years ago, the price of Hainan Huanghuali was 20,000 yuan a ton, and now the good material is tens of millions of tons. Moreover, what I want to do is not only the Haihuang business, but also Xiaoye Rosewood, didn't he say that he had a way? ”

Wen Jia thought for a while, "Well, although there are many points in the layout now, the speed of making money is still not enough." If you don't hurry up the accumulation of funds, you want to fight with the Tokyo Historical Museum, and you want to develop the Five Ancient Sealed Lamp Research Association, but there is no foundation. ”

"So, get in touch with him, and if he really has a way, you can cooperate." Tang Yi said.

"I said, you are good at gambling stones, and you can also gamble on wood? I've never heard of you! Wen Jia glanced at Tang Yi.

Tang Yi smiled reluctantly, "I don't know if it's okay or not, I just want to try." Indeed, whether he can "see through" the living tree, Tang Yizhen has never tried.

The two walked around for a while, and ran into Sun Xiaowei and Gao Taiming at the door of a store. Tang Yi didn't hide it, saying that when he met a business partner who felt worthy of cooperation, he had to have a meal together at noon.

Sun Xiaowei and Gao Taiming naturally didn't ask more, so they each came their own way. The two of them haven't bought anything for the time being, and they haven't been to the stall for a long time, so they plan to do a good shopping today.

At about ten o'clock in the morning, Zhang Lu's phone called, saying that he had booked a private room in a Sichuan restaurant and was already on the way.

Tang Yi and Wen Jia arrived at the private room at eleven o'clock, and Zhang Lu was already waiting.

"Do you want to find two beautiful women to accompany you for a drink?" Zhang Lu asked while giving Tang Yi a cigarette.

"No, you don't." Tang Yi looked at Wen Jia. Wen Jia said with a smile, "After talking, it's not too late to find it or not." ”

Because he came early, Zhang Lu ordered the restaurant's signature dish and special dishes, so it was served quickly, and a large table was set up, and three people were a little more.

After the waiter withdrew, Zhang Lu first brought a glass of wine, and then said while greeting him to eat: "I have seen Mr. Tang's eyesight, and now the antique industry is mixed, and no eyesight is equal to no supply." But how many people really have eyesight? I'm not bad! ”

Tang Yi laughed, "Mr. Zhang is not modest. ”

In fact, in the antique market, most of them are really at the level of Zhang Lu, which belongs to the stage of stuck neck, and it is not up or down. In addition, the real masters and pure mallets are located at the top and bottom, and there are not many of them.

"When I meet a master, I never speak around the corner. In Hangzhou, the antique market is still very large. I do a carpentry business, mainly Buddhist beads and furniture, and there are many people who like antiques among my customers. It's a pity that I don't have enough eyesight and don't dare to catch the goods easily! Zhang Lu continued, "Moreover, I want to expand the antique business, not entirely to make money, the point is that I am also good." ”

Tang Yi thought for a while, "I can provide a part of the supply, but the antique business is different from other businesses." My Ge Baoduo's signboard has been played, if it is supplied-" Tang Yi said this, pausing slightly.

"I understand what Mr. Tang means. I'm also half of the people in the antique circle, this thing can't be mass-produced, the drought and flood are uneven, sometimes a thing can be famous, and it can also make a lot of money. Are you saying that if we cooperate, I can only play the sign of Gebaoduo and open your branch in Hangzhou, right? Zhang Lu understood it as soon as he heard it.

"Mr. Zhang's carpentry business is quite large, so it doesn't seem to be a big scene." Tang Yi smiled.

Zhang Lu shook his finger slightly, "That's not what I said, this person should know the most, and it is also the most difficult to know, that is, what he wants." What do I want? First, to meet the psychology of liking antiques and improve eyesight; Second, expand the scope of business, make money, and enhance influence. It's not that hard to solve this problem. ”

"Oh?" Tang Yi glanced at him with interest.

"I also have a brand, Qianlu Woodworking, on the door of my woodworking shop, hang two signs, one is Qianlu Woodwork Main Store, and the other is Gebaoduo Antique Branch, isn't it all solved? And Mr. Tang can also use it, and hang an extra sign of a thousand road wood art branch in your Gebaoduo antique head store! ”

Tang Yi stroked his palm, "Mr. Zhang is really good at doing business!" ”

"So Don always agreed?" Zhang Lu raised his glass, "Let's go?" ”

"Let's go!" Tang Yi drank a glass of beer, "It seems that Mr. Zhang has already conceived a lot of things!" ”

"Wise people don't speak dark words. That's what I thought, we haven't met before, so we all have to get acquainted with each other. I will leave for Hainan Qiongdao the day after tomorrow, Mr. Tang is interested, you can go with me, the process of gambling on wood is itself a process of showing strength. After that, we can go to Hangzhou together and see my storefront, and at the same time. Zhang Lu said this and paused.

"At the same time, I will help you take local materials in Hangzhou, and see if you can catch a batch of goods from the antique market, stalls, and old households?" Tang Yi asked with a smile.

"It's nice to deal with smart people!" Zhang Luxi is colorful.

"In addition to having a store in Shanzhou, I also have branches in Yanjing and Huhai, and this Mr. Wen is the person in charge of the Yanjing Dharma Instrument Shop, and he is also the master of Xuanmen who is famous in Yanjing!" Tang Yi continued.

"Fortunately, I will be happy! I'll do it first! Zhang Lu raised his glass to Wen Jia and drank it all.

Putting down the wine glass, Zhang Lu smiled, "Today and Tang finally hit it off at first sight, so, after a while, I have to go to India to see an old red sandalwood forest, which is also a gambling wood, if Tang is interested, you can go together!" ”
