Chapter 38 Arriving at the Destination

After eating, Ran Hongling and Hu Shu were still fresh and wanted to go shopping.

Li Le asked Xu Changqing to go with them, but he went back to the hotel alone. In his previous life, he did not come to this place in Hetian. Although the rebirth of the times has pushed this time forward by more than ten years, the environment is still somewhat familiar to him, so there is no special sense of freshness, and he still has things to sort out.

Traveling all the way, playing is playing, but business also needs to be done.

After all, he came here to prepare for the development of jade, and the next thing that needs to be done, Li Le is also ready to start doing.

Ran Hongling and Hu Shu have been charged by him a lot these days, and although they have some understanding of jade, they are only limited to theory.

From a practical point of view, the two of them are still new and cannot be new novices. In this era, the value of Hetian jade has begun to be slowly discovered, although it is not as expensive as the sky-high price of later generations.

But in terms of cheating, Li Le believes that there must be now.

The Hetian jade in the XJ region is only a narrow definition, and in a broad sense, QH materials, Russian materials, Korean materials, etc. can be counted as Hetian jade.

Taking advantage of such geographical differences, many people will use such a definition to confuse novices.

Therefore, for Ran Hongling and Hu Shu, Li Le has to spend a long time to let them truly understand Hetian Yu from practice, and be able to clearly distinguish the value of various rough stones, and then stand alone and become his right-hand man.

In addition, he came here to take root for a long time, and it is impossible to live in the hotel forever, so he has to consider renting a house and a store.

The most urgent thing about these things is the house thing, which is the first priority. As for the matter of opening a store and cultivating the two, he was in no hurry for a while, and Li Le was ready to proceed slowly after the matter of the house was resolved. The two of them will be trained first, and then when the time is right, the store will be opened.

After taking out a small notebook, Li Le began to slowly list the things he needed to do one by one, dividing them into priorities, priorities, and details.

This is the method taught to him by Tang Chongming, a manager, not to talk about the ability to do things. A reasonable arrangement, the ability to reasonably distribute things is the first thing. Taking notes can clarify your own thinking and clarify the order in which things are arranged, so that people can make things go in an orderly manner without missing anything. This is the easiest and most convenient method.

When managers do things, what they are most afraid of is randomness, what they think of and what they do, and they completely rely on their momentary ideas to deal with things. This is a big taboo, not only is it not organized, but it will always make things feel messy, not to mention inefficient, and let the people under him always work hard.

On the road to becoming an excellent manager, even if Li Le draws on the experience of his previous life and Tang Chongming's teaching, he still has a long way to go.

After all, Mu Ne's character in the previous life limited his development in many aspects, and if there is such an opportunity and such a condition in this life, he will definitely not waste it. Rapid growth in practice is one of his biggest ideas today.

After listing everything, it was almost ten o'clock.

Li Le has a total of three rooms, two single rooms and one standard room.

Ran Hongling and Hu Shu lived alone, while Xu Changqing shared a room with Li Le, so after seeing Xu Changqing enter the door, Li Le closed the book and said to him, "Are they all back?" ”

"Hmmm! After a long walk, I was a little tired, so I came back. ”

Seeing that Xu Changqing still had a calm and calm attitude, Li Le also smiled slightly, "Are you still used to dragging you to such a far place all at once?" ”

"It's okay, I didn't rush much along the way, you eat and drink well and never treat us badly, what else can you not get used to."

At this time, there was a knock on the door, Xu Changqing got up and went to open the door, but saw Hu Shu poking his head in, "Haven't slept yet?" ”

After saying this, he walked in directly, and then sat down on the sofa with a grin, and consciously poured himself a cup of tea.

"What? When you first came here, aren't you used to not being able to sleep? ”

After taking a sip of tea, Hu Shu grinned and said: "What is not used to, running outside all the year round, there is nothing that is not used to bed-loving or eating." It's just the first time I've run so far, just like a bird in flight, I'm a little excited, and I want to talk to you. ”

Hearing such words, Li Le couldn't help laughing. This sworn friend may have really suffocated under his old man's hands before, but there is no wonder he is excited. So far away from home, the sky is high and the birds are flying, there is indeed a feeling of freedom in my heart, and it is normal to not be able to sleep in addition to the different customs of the region.

After filling the pot with tea for him and Xu Changqing, Li Le said, "Just say what you want to talk about!" ”

"Actually, it's nothing, I just want to ask what I'm going to do next."

Seeing that Hu Shu had the bottom in his heart and did not forget the purpose of coming here, Li Le also nodded secretly in his heart, "Don't worry, tomorrow we will first investigate the surrounding market to see where the jade trading center is, and then search nearby to determine the matter of the house." ”

"Hmmm! The matter of the house has to be determined first, and the cost of staying in a hotel is too great. By the way, I haven't seen the real food in the jade things you told me in the past few days, and I don't have a specific impression, do you want to take me to see and see tomorrow? ”

"No problem, as long as you are willing to learn, I will teach you wholeheartedly. I'm going to get through this, and you'll have to learn quickly and grow up quickly. Now there are not enough people, Brother Xu is mainly responsible for our safety, only you and Sister Ran can stand alone, and the rest of my work can be carried out. ”

……

As the two talked in detail, the topic gradually opened. As a person who runs business outside all the year round, although Hu Shu is not familiar with jade, he can think of ideas in many places.

This made Li Le feel very gratified, after all, he was his best friend, and having the ability to be himself was what Li Le was looking forward to. Li Le also knew everything about his doubts and tried his best to answer them for him.

This conversation lasted for more than an hour. Xu Changqing just listened to the conversation between the two very quietly on the side, and didn't say anything.

After a few days of getting along, Hu Shu also knows his temperament, let alone Li Le. So both of them let him go, and they didn't deliberately go to him for something.

Seeing that the time was about the same, Hu Shu also got up to say goodbye, it seemed that talking to Li Le like this made him feel confident in his heart, and he looked confident when he walked out of the room.

After Hu Shu left, Li Le said to Xu Changqing, who was drinking tea on the side: "Brother Xu, when it stabilizes after a while, I want to learn martial arts from you." ”

"Got it figured?"

"Hmmm! I've figured out a few things in Kyoto as well. In this world, people must have the power to protect themselves, not to bully others, and not to allow others to bully. ”

"Just say something when you think you're free."

After Li Le nodded slightly, Tang Chongming got up and prepared to rest.

At this time, the phone suddenly remembered that it was Liu Yunyao calling. I started to be busy, and I was busy looking at it, and I had to call her every day.

Walking to the balcony, Li Le took the phone, and Liu Yunyao's crisp and pleasant voice came from the other end.

"Haven't slept yet?"

"No, I just arrived here in Hotan today, and I was busy with some things just now, so I forgot to call you."

"It's good to get there, you can take care of yourself over there, and if you're really busy, you don't have to call, just send me a message."

……

Maybe it was too late, and after talking for more than half an hour, Liu Yunyao asked Li Le to rest early, and then hung up the phone.

Looking at the brightly lit night scene outside the balcony, Li Le only felt extremely calm in his heart.

It wasn't until this moment that he really started his own road. For the sake of the longing person in the distance, for his own ideals, no matter how difficult this road is, he will break through all the obstacles in front of him until the end.

The next morning, everyone got up early, and Li Le was still familiar with the trading market here in Hetian.

There are three trading markets here, the first is the Hetian Jade Trading Market on Jiamai Road, which is the most famous and largest trading market in later generations.

In this, Hetian jade's mountain materials, seed materials, and mountain water will be traded. However, the hours are slightly limited, and they are only open on Fridays and Sundays every week. In the past two days, people from various jade mining sites in Hotan, people digging jade points, jade traders and some Hetian jade collectors came to trade with jade.

The second place is 16 kilometers away from the city, 12 kilometers away from the old bridge of the Yulong Kashgar River, a place called "General Gate".

This trading market is freely formed, and there are no restrictions on the time of the week except for Friday and Sunday.

However, this is mostly a trading market for Hetian jade seeds, and the time of formation is about 2004, as for the current no one trading there, Li Le is not sure.

The last place is a place called "Yulong Canal Head", which is 36 kilometers away from the bridge section.

Compared with the first two, although the market is not as large as the previous two, the transaction is large, the jade quality is good, and the price is cheaper than the first two. However, here, strong funds are needed, and for Li Le's existing money, it is still somewhat insufficient. It's okay to go occasionally, but if you go often, it will take time to accumulate slowly.

Because it was Thursday, Li Le didn't plan to go to the jade market, his idea was to settle the matter of the house near the Jiamai Road trading market first. As for going to the jade market, it is more convenient to go everywhere with a car.

After breakfast, Li Le set off with a few people.

Coming to the jade market on Jiamai Road, it seems relatively deserted at the moment, obviously there is no transaction today.

Seeing that sign and such a deserted scene, Hu Shu couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Li Le, is this the trading market you are talking about?" How do you feel like there's no one? ”

"I'm just going to take you here today, it's not open today, and you'll see how lively it is on Fridays and Sundays. Let's wait and take a look around now, and after the house matter is settled, we'll come back tomorrow. ”

Hearing his explanation, Hu Shu and Ran Hongling showed a sudden look.

Then they started to walk into the streets and began to look for a place to rent their house.

After looking for more than an hour, I didn't see an advertisement for a rental house, which made several people a little depressed.

After taking a look at the surrounding environment, Li Le stepped directly into a shop that sold side stones.

The grocery store is located in a somewhat dilapidated courtyard that seems to have been opened with the help of the faΓ§ade of the residence.

When I walked in, there was an old man sitting inside, who looked gray-haired and was almost seventy years old.

"Hello! How do you sell this? ”

Pointing to a box of cigarettes on the counter, Li Le asked the old man.

After glancing at Li Le, the old man popped out a sentence that Li Le didn't understand. After Li Le asked her again in Mandarin, the old man still spoke in a language he didn't understand. As if sensing the difficulty of communication, the old man shouted at the back room.

Then Li Le heard a crisp response, followed by a little girl who was a little beautiful, with long eyelashes and blue eyes, who seemed to be a minority of famous people, ran out of the house.

The little girl obviously understands Mandarin, and after Li Le asked again, she put her hand on her chest, and then leaned forward to say sorry before saying to Li Le: "This is five yuan." ”

After paying the money, Li Le asked casually: "Do you know where to rent a house near here?" ”

Hearing Li Le's words, the little girl smiled sweetly, and then said, "You are a guest from a foreign country, right?" There are relatively few rental houses in this area, and you may have to go there to get them! So saying, the little girl walked out of the shop and pointed in one direction.

Hearing him say this, Li Le prepared to leave. But after walking a few steps, Li Le turned to the little girl and asked, "Can you take us there?" I can pay you. ”

Because Li Le considered that if he encountered the obstacle in communication just now in the past, he would be really dumbfounded. He knows that in the place of XJ, the language is quite mixed, people from all over the world gather here, even if it is Mandarin, it has its own characteristics here, and it has been transformed into XJ dialect, which can be understood, but when it comes to other languages, it is much more difficult to communicate.

When the little girl heard this, she sang and the old man in the house muttered a few words, and then said to Li Le: "Let's go!" I will accompany you, and I do not want your reward. ”

The little girl's sincerity made Li Le a little embarrassed, and then asked Ran Hongling what they needed, and picked a lot of things in the store before stopping.

The little girl was also very grateful for their behavior, and finally gave them a lot cheaper.

Because the distance was not close, Li Le asked Xu Changqing to drive the car over. Sitting on the car, the little girl looked around with some curiosity, obviously it was the first time to sit in such a good car.

With the exchange, the little girl and Li Le gradually got to know each other.

From her words, Li Le knew that this little girl was Uyghur, called Na Moyi, and the old man just now was her grandmother, and she also spoke the Uyghur dialect, no wonder Li Le couldn't understand it.
