108. Everyone has what he needs, and everyone has someone in the world
Although Wu Jiaming did not mention on the spot that Luo Luo had "collected" a piece of the same porcelain, Luo Luo himself felt a little embarrassed, and Cheng Tianle's words just now made Luo Luo feel that he had found a step down. When she continued to shop, she involuntarily walked side by side with Cheng Tianle, and said in a slightly self-deprecating tone: "Cheng is really insightful, I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, and I also have a collection of similar fake blue and white porcelain." After being reminded by Mr. Cheng, I know what to do, and I have the opportunity to find another genuine product to put with it. Usually look at it yourself, and if there are guests coming, you can also use it as an allusion to talk to someone. β
Cheng Tianle asked with great interest: "How much did you spend to buy it?" β
Luo Luo seemed to be a little shy and replied: "I'm really ashamed, I was beaten in the eye, and it cost 80,000 yuan." In fact, she spent more than eight 108, each got what she needed, and there were 10,000 but 200,000 people in the world, but she was afraid that she would be happy to joke, so she tried to say as little as possible. And when she first told Wu Jiaming the price of the jade Guanyin, in order to show off, she only spent 120,000 yuan but said that it was 300,000.
Cheng Tianle was startled for a moment, and took a step while walking. Luo Luo took advantage of the situation to hold his arm and said, "The road is uneven, be careful not to stumble!" And so he was put on the hook.
Her perfume smelled very good, and Cheng Tianle said very gracefully: "It should be me supporting you." While speaking, I couldn't help but think of the scene when I was shopping by Liu Shujun holding my arm on Shantang Street, it seemed to be a long time ago, and at this moment, there was another beauty next to me, and her identity was completely different.
Although Cheng Tianle doesn't know much about collecting, he also knows that he wants to buy a complete Kangxi blue and white for 80,000 yuan. It's unlikely! He held Luo Luo and said matter-of-factly: "80,000 yuan, want to buy real Kangxi blue and white porcelain?" It's too cheap, there's no such thing as a cheap thing in the world, did you have a fluke mentality at the time? β
Luo Luo half-bowed his head and said, "Yes, what you said is so right!" I just thought it was cheap. If you buy the wrong one, you won't lose much, but if you buy the right one, you will make a lot of money. That's why I bought it. This is the mentality of a businessman, a little not suitable for 108, everyone has what they need, and there are people in the world who ask for collections. β
Cheng Tianle said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if it's a businessman's mentality, the key is probability." In that case, there is almost no chance of being right. If you take into account the probability of buying right and the probability of buying wrong. It's not suitable for a shot. "After working in the trading department for such a long time, these simple profit and loss principles can be talked about by Cheng Tianle.
Xiao Su in the back saw Cheng Tianle's lesson-telling tone, afraid that Luo Luo would not be able to hang up on his face, so he hurried over to interject to liven up the atmosphere, and somehow talked about an interesting incident last year. A person took a funny "ancient painting of the Tang Dynasty" and ran to the TV treasure show to ask experts to identify it, and when he opened it, he saw that the Beijing-Shanghai Railway Bridge was still painted on it!
Several people have heard about it. It's still funny to talk about it now. After everyone finished laughing, Cheng Tianle said unhurriedly: "Xiao Su, we are really destined." Today is the first time we met, and you mentioned the painting, and it happens to be in my possession right now. β
Xiao Su asked in surprise: "What a coincidence!" How did Mr. Cheng get that painting? β
Cheng Tianle explained with a smile: "I also watched that TV show, and then I went to visit Shantang Street, and happened to see that the painting was put in the store for consignment, so I bought it easily, and it only cost 800 yuan." In fact, as far as modern painting is concerned, that painting is also quite good. Definitely great value for money. β
Xiao Su nodded and agreed: "Mr. Cheng really has a vision!" That painting has such an allusion, which is also one of its values, and if it is not bad in itself, it is definitely worth collecting. Aren't the so-called ancient paintings of today just the new paintings of the past? So what are the works of today that will become collectible works of art in the future? It may be collected by people like you. β
Cheng Tianle was praised very comfortably, and said with a smile: "Xiao Su, you don't need to call me Mr. Cheng, just call me Lele." My name is Cheng Tianle, and many people call me Lele. β
Luo Luo took over the conversation: "Your name is Lele?" I'm Dong Luo, many people call me Luo Luo, and our names are very similar! β
Today's street shopping is interesting, accompanied by two beautiful women. If there is a choice between the two beauties, Cheng Tianle is more interested in Xiao Su. It's not that he thinks anything about other girls, it's just a natural comparison. And Luo Luo originally came with Wu Jiaming, but at this moment, he was more interested in Cheng Tianle, and even put his arm up. The first meeting of strange men and women, to say that there is nothing to talk about, it is just a hazy feeling. Modern urban men and women are often very generous in their manners, and their ideas are often more generous.
After visiting the antique market, Cheng Tianle generously invited guests to lunch, but Wu Jiaming rushed to buy the order. Then take the car to Jade City, and the blue and white jar was also put into the trunk of Cheng Tianle's black Mercedes-Benz. The four of them drove three cars when they came, Luo Luo had his own special car, and Xiao Su was the driver. Seeing this, Wu Jiaming did not drive his own Fukang again, but became a driver for Cheng Tianle, and almost did not exchange passengers.
Naturally, he didn't go to ordinary places in the afternoon, Wu Jiaming went directly to the studios of several jade carving craftsmen, he should be very familiar with these people, and introduced a lot of Hetian jade boutiques. Luo Luo bought two of them, this girl was really generous, she spent more than 200,000 yuan at that time, and she was very happy. It's not that she spends so much money every day, but today is a rare opportunity, led by someone who knows how to do it, and she can also see the jade carver himself explaining to her in detail the material, knife characteristics, creative conception, and artistic conception and theme of each work.
This kind of bought handicrafts are much stronger than what they are fooling around, and when they are taken back and placed in the reception room at home, and introduced in front of friends, they can appear more face-saving and tasteful, at least they will not let insiders see jokes. And the Hetian jade carving with real artistic value will also appreciate in the future.
Cheng Tianle has been listening attentively to the introduction of Wu Jiaming and those craftsmen, and rarely interjects to discuss anything. Later, he also bought a few things - Hetian jade seeds that had been simply peeled and polished. These are not jade carvings, but are placed in the shop pΓΉ mainly to show the raw materials to customers. He took three pieces of jade the size of a walnut and asked how much it was? As a result, the craftsman glanced at Wu Jiaming and decided to send him away for nothing.
I had a lot of fun shopping this day, but Luo Luo still had guests to entertain at night, so I had to apologize for saying goodbye in advance, and when I left, I said that I wanted to make an appointment to go out to play together. After the two girls left, Cheng Tianle took three pieces of jade and asked Wu Jiaming: "To be honest, how much is this thing worth?" β
Wu Jiaming replied: "It depends on what the material is, now the price of jade has risen, although the three pieces you take are not big, they are all good seeds, and if others buy them, they will cost at least more than 10,000 yuan." Even if you are given a cost price, it will cost you thousands of dollars. β
Cheng Tianle asked again: "Then why did people give me away for nothing?" I see you winked at that jade carver at that time, what kind of code did you make? β
Wu Jiaming smiled: "I'm just suing him, you are your own person." In fact, he had already earned it, Luo Luo bought two things, one for 120,000 and the other for 150,000, and the one for 150,000 was bought in his store. Jade is the most difficult thing to estimate, really good jade carving, the cost of materials is often not more than 30 percent, and the carver accounts for more than 70 percent of the selling price, that is the money he earns. β
Cheng Tianle sighed: "The craftsmanship of those two jade carvings is indeed good, it is difficult to price art, and time is the real appraiser." β¦β¦ The jade carver is willing to give me these three pieces of material for nothing, because you have a look, and how much commission can you get for introducing guests to buy things? β
Wu Jiaming replied a little embarrassed: "The commission is 20 percent, thanks to you today, Luo Luo is very generous, and I also earned 54,000!" Even if the three pieces of jade material I gave you are recorded in my account, it will be a net of 50,000 yuan today. β
Cheng Tianle was taken aback: "You have earned so much!" β
Wu Jiaming hurriedly explained: "This is a transaction sent to the door, which is equivalent to what they picked up, and artists are also human beings, and they also need to eat!" The jade industry is very profitable, they often don't open for several days, and they can't sell a single thing, but as long as they sell a few things, they can cover the expenses of one or two months. Isn't it normal to give me such a business intermediary fee in the industry? It's not a money scam! β
Cheng Tianle frowned and said, "But the wool is out of the sheep, and that's Luo Luo's money." β
Wu Jiaming smiled again: "Hi! What do you say about her? I'm saving her money, you haven't seen her room full of fakes. After your guidance and teaching, I don't mean to deceive people today, she can't buy that kind of thing at that price anywhere else, let alone guΓ² in such a way! I am really doing serious business, and I use my skills and connections to introduce her to the way to collect art. Those craftsmen are all famous, surnamed, head and face, not to mention the carver, not to mention the material, and dare not play tricks with me. β
Cheng Tianle thought about it and felt that it was the same. The employees of their trading department are engaged in market development, and they also have business commissions, and it can't be said that people shouldn't take it, so they sighed: "Wu Jiaming, you have the ability to earn 50,000 yuan by shopping, why did you do those things that deceived you in the first place?" β
Wu Jiaming looked down at his toes and explained weakly: "It is impossible to always have such luck, this Luo Luo is something I finally met, and it took a lot of effort to get to her, and I didn't have the opportunity to make a business until today, or I am on your side to support you, this kind of business is too difficult to encounter." Sometimes people inevitably have opportunistic ideas, and they can make faster, more, and easier money, and they are even deceived. But I remembered your command and will not do it again! β
