223. a wool
223. The big jewelers who come to Myanmar every year basically know each other, and the small jewelers or the tourists and gamblers who come here to fight for their luck also account for a large part of the transaction volume of the market, but these people usually only buy some relatively low-priced wool, like this wool that is often millions of people rarely sell.
Wang Pengyu, a fresh face, actually paid four million dollars to buy this piece of wool, which suddenly surprised these big jewelers slightly, and they all looked at Wang Pengyu.
Ma Shanna saw Wang Pengyu's sudden move, it was also extremely unexpected, such a precious wool, in the first three days of the publicity, the jewelers who were interested in it had already looked at it carefully, and even used a magnifying glass to see any pimples and potholes on the surface of the stone, Wang Pengyu had not come here to see the jade wool of the public announcement before, how could he suddenly make a move, or this amazing wool of millions of dollars?
She couldn't help but whisper: "Mr. Wang, although this piece of jadeite wool has seen green and the water species is good, many times, it is just floating green, and it is impossible to determine whether there is really a large piece of jadeite in it." ”
Wang Pengyu smiled and said, "Just look at it." ”
Ma Shanna was really a little speechless, but this Wang Pengyu also made sense, others fought with him, and naturally felt that this piece of wool was worth this money.
Originally, she thought that Wang Pengyu was here to play, the real jeweler, who was not a master who was proficient in identifying the quality of wool with multiple masters, studied every piece of wool to buy very carefully, and she didn't expect that after he cast a secret bid, he would sell at an astonishing price of four million.
After Wang Pengyu raised the sign, let the bidding pause slightly, but if this piece of jadeite wool can really open a large piece of jadeite, according to the green that is now opened, it is a rare old pit glass species, which belongs to the top grade or even the best in jadeite, and the value is definitely more than 20 million, and the figure of four million is not enough to scare off jewelers who are confident in this piece of wool.
A tall, blue-eyed, blonde white man quickly held up the sign in his hand, $4.1 million, only $100,000 higher than Wang Pengyu's bid.
According to the current exchange rate, 4.1 million US dollars is almost equivalent to 30 million yuan, such an astonishing price to buy a piece of wool is unbelievable in the eyes of ordinary people, but the window of this wool is very large, according to estimates, the smallest inside is the size of an egg, even if you can't make money, you can't lose much, this white man dares to buy real jadeite at such a high price.
He held up the sign and looked at Wang Pengyu sharply, obviously wanting to suppress this hairy boy who didn't know the depth with momentum.
Wang Pengyu felt the aura of this piece of wool, but he couldn't find any reason, not to mention that this wool is estimated to be able to produce a good jadeite, even if it is really only a little green outside, he must buy it and study it clearly, and smiled slightly, the price of four and a half million yuan shocked the people present.
Someone just offered a price of 3.5 million, and everyone present thought that this piece of wool would definitely not be able to run away, but they didn't expect that Wang Pengyu, a strange face, had a round of fighting with the purchasing manager of the American Ole Jewelry, and instantly increased the price by as much as one million US dollars!
The people present are not stupid, this piece of wool is good, and it must be able to open a large enough jade to return to the capital, once it is floating green, it is a blood source, four and a half million US dollars can be hit in an instant, and those who have little tolerance are afraid that they will go crazy on the spot, and Wang Pengyu, a strange face, is obviously determined to get this wool, maybe there is some deep background, these jewelry merchants do not want to offend him for no reason, and they are all dead at the moment.
The white man from Ole Jewelry also frowned and thought for a while, and finally did not continue to bid, put down the sign, and smiled at Wang Pengyu.
After the auctioneer made a final decision and the wool belonged to Wang Pengyu, he came over and said in not very standard Chinese: "Are you Chinese?" ”
Wang Pengyu smiled and said, "Not bad." Listen to your accent, it should be American, right? ”
The tall white man looked at Situ Yue and the night owl behind Wang Pengyu, and took out a business card box made of gold, with a lot of rhinestones inlaid on the side, which was a priceless luxury at a glance, and then he took out a business card from the gold business card box that was also made of gold and handed it to Wang Pengyu: "Bernard of the Lower American Ole Jewelry Company, it's a pleasure to meet Your Excellency." I don't know what your name is, but it's rare to have such arrogance to buy a piece of wool for $4.5 million. ”
Wang Pengyu took the business card and looked at it, he had also received a golden business card before, which was given by Situ Xiang of Xijiang Hall, several years have passed, Situ Xiang's taste seems to be much higher, and the business card used is no longer a golden business card that looks a little vulgar. However, here, the golden business card is still very popular, it is a symbol of strength, regardless of whether you are a nouveau riche or not, buying wool here, the only thing you value is everyone's cash, and you will not be discounted because of your elegant taste.
"Sorry, I don't have a business card. Under the surname Wang, buying this jade wool is just for fun, isn't Mr. Bernard out for 4.1 million? He put his business card in the pocket of his sweatpants and said with a smile.
Bernard couldn't help but be a little disappointed, of course, he was not reluctant to give up a golden business card of 2,000 US dollars, in his opinion, Wang Pengyu should be the son of those high-ranking political officials in Chinese mainland, and it is estimated that there is a lot of money laundering here, and in the eyes of Westerners, Chinese officials and clean government are insulated, so they want to find out the details of Wang Pengyu, and the relationship between the two sides is the best.
Many people think that China is a backward and poor place, but Bernard, who often deals with Chinese jewelers, does not think so, China's high-end consumption power is extremely amazing, and the large purchase of wool by Chinese jewelers even shocked him, the purchasing manager of an American jewelry company.
In recent years, more and more luxury brands have entered the Chinese market, and some luxury companies have even relied on the Chinese market to resurrect themselves, and Bernard's Ole Jewelry Company also has plans to do so.
It's just that China's national conditions determine that it is difficult for their normal marketing channels to open the Chinese market, in this ancient country that pays attention to human touch and interpersonal relations, it is difficult to establish a branch here without building a good relationship with the local powerful people in China, so Bernard took the initiative to find Wang Pengyu to find out his details.
Wang Pengyu dealt with him twice, Bernard saw that Wang Pengyu was not cold and did not be bored, and asked Wang Pengyu if he still had any wool he liked, so as not to raise the price by bidding with each other, Wang Pengyu casually said that there was no goal, Bernard smiled and left.
The next more than ten pieces of wool did not appear with aura, and the price was not as good as Wang Pengyu's wool, most of them were between more than 100,000 US dollars and 1 million US dollars.
The wool materials that can participate in the public plate are the high-quality wool materials that have been screened, and some wool shops outside, there are many flower brand materials and brick materials, which are much cheaper, and the small volume of the flower brand materials is calculated according to the kilogram, and one hundred yuan can buy a kilogram back, of course, these wool materials may be much lower than the surname of jadeite, mainly for tourists and small-scale wool merchants.
Tomorrow is the last day of the public market, and the remaining open bids will be auctioned tomorrow, and the previous hidden bids will also be announced tomorrow, Wang Pengyu went to nearly five million US dollars at once, and almost half of the money he brought over, and he was not in a hurry to buy jade in the jade shop, and planned to investigate the reason for the aura emitted by the two pieces of wool first.
After paying the money, you can take the wool away, RMB is very popular in Myanmar, Wang Pengyu took out the bank card and paid directly in RMB according to the exchange rate, and the staff sent the wool over after delivery.
The Myanmar Jewelry Trading Center has bodyguard hiring services, all of whom are active soldiers, but Wang Pengyu naturally does not need to hire soldiers to protect the jade wool, and uses a wooden box containing seventy or eighty pounds of stone eggs to hand over to the night owl to hold, and after getting on the car, tens of millions of yuan are thrown on the car like rotten stones, and return to Yangon by car.
Mashana, who followed Wang Pengyu, was even more nervous than Wang Pengyu, constantly looking at the wooden box containing wool all the way, and looking around from time to time, lest someone suddenly rush out and snatch Wang Pengyu's wool.
Myanmar has never been a stable place, the situation is very chaotic, 10,000 yuan is enough to make many people take risks and even kill people, not to mention tens of millions of wool, often some lawbreakers, will sneak into the Myanmar jewelry trading center to find targets, Wang Pengyu did not take many people, but also bought a woolen businessman of amazing value, which is their favorite ambush object.
When he came out, Mashana also reminded Wang Pengyu and asked him to hire a few soldiers to protect him and go back to Yangon, even before he got on the plane and returned to China, the two "bodyguards" of Night Owl and Situ Yue were not very reliable in the eyes of Mashana, and they were far less secure than the soldiers with loaded guns.
On the contrary, the driver who drove did not enter the Myanmar Jewelry Trading Center with Wang Pengyu, although he guessed that the wooden box was filled with jadeite wool, and saw Wang Pengyu throw it aside at will, thinking that it was three hundred dollars of flower brand material, and drove back to Yangon all the way easily, and whistled, not as nervous as Mashana at all.
Some people like to cut stones on the spot, and some people like to take them back to cut them themselves, but Wang Pengyu wants to study it first, anyway, there will be that piece of wool with cracks tomorrow, and it will fall into his hands if nothing else, so he didn't rush to cut the stone, so he asked Mashana to help find a hotel with a good environment to stay, and prepare to study it at night.
Ma Shanna left her contact information and went back, and the three of them each opened a room, but not long after Wang Pengyu entered the room, there was a sudden knock on the door, and when he opened the door, it turned out to be Situ Yue and Night Owl, and their faces were extremely strange.
