Chapter 454 Wood Carving
"I really didn't expect it, I thought it was a small company that didn't enter the stream, but I didn't expect it to develop to this extent now."
"It's our boss."
"Yes, you didn't watch today's morning news? When the boss heard an outdated message, he thought of this stump plan, and the one-thousandth commission was two million dollars! This shows that the boss has made two billion dollars just this time! ”
"This can be said to be a treasure caused by a tree stump, right? I posted it on my Weibo and asked all my classmates to watch and envy me by the way. ”
"You should envy us, although our salary is not high, but the bonus and benefits are good!"
"You're going to get the full prize this time, right?"
"Hey! I came to the company a little late, so I can get half of the bonus at most, Sister Zhang can send it, she came half a month earlier than me, but she fully participated in the project, and she can get the full bonus. ”
"Half a month apart, cut your bonus in half? 120,000, half is only 60,000, but 60,000 is okay, up to our 20 months' salary. ”
"No way, I didn't participate in this project after I came to the company at that time, so now I can get half of it, and I am already very content."
"What projects have you been involved in?"
"Secret, I don't know what to do?"
"Saorui, forgot."
Han Peacock shook his head and walked out of the office with a smile, he walked to the top floor of the office building, his arrival obviously caused a lot of trouble.
Now, except for a few high-level executives of the company, no one else is eligible to enter this floor.
And the security guards above. During the shift, it is not possible to go out, of course, outsiders cannot come in, even if they contact, they use an internal walkie-talkie or mobile phone.
If you want to enter such a closed environment, you naturally need all kinds of verifications, and by the time Han Peacock walked in, ten minutes had passed.
The stumps of Huanghuali and Jinsi Nanmu collected in China are placed here, although there are not many of them. But there are also 200 small ones.
There are special gifts from Jiang Lin and others. Almost all of them are large tree stumps, such things, except for making dinner tables, that is, carved chairs.
Han Peacock checked. There are many tree stumps where chairs can be made. There are more than a dozen. There are also three that can carve a table as a whole, one of which is the small leaf red sandalwood of the Philippines. The other two, one is a Burmese rosewood and the other is a Vietnamese yellow pear.
These three tree stumps can clearly see the heart of the tree, and its heartwood is even more flawless, with a diameter of more than one meter five, it can be said that each one is a giant, and it can also be seen from here that Jiang Lin and others are still attentive to him.
Looking at the heavy iron gate on the roof of the building, as well as the large and small tree stumps connected by thick iron chains, Han Peacock shook his head, not planning to put them away.
It is certainly not easy to transport these tree stumps upstairs, and since it is not easy to go upstairs, it is naturally not easy to go downstairs.
In such a sealed environment, coupled with the layers of security guards, if it weren't for the militants who robbed Agarwood, they really wouldn't have been able to snatch these tree stumps from here.
Besides, this is not Mysore, and even if someone takes care of the security here, it won't be so easy for them to get these things out of the magic capital.
These things can't be hidden, and even if they grab it, it's a big trouble, so Han Peacock is not afraid that someone will really grab it.
Of course, you still have to pay attention to stealing, after all, the wood here is considered valuable, as long as you steal a few catties, you can sell it for some money.
You must know that the wood here in Langdao, whether it is small-leaved red sandalwood or yellow pear or ordinary rosewood, is considered to be valuable wood, and it is all old material, this kind of thing is sold according to the kilogram, if you give others a chance, there must be someone to worry about.
Han Peacock had just unraveled a small piece of golden silk nanmu, and a security guard came up to inform him that someone was looking for him outside.
After putting away this piece of golden silk nanmu that is more than 20 centimeters long, more than 10 centimeters wide and 3 centimeters thick, Han Peacock walked out of here.
"Ji Lao? Why do you always have time to come to our company? Han Peacock looked at Ji Shuping in surprise.
Ji Shuping said: "There's no way, someone forced me to come." ”
Ji Shuping pointed behind him, Han Peacock looked over, they were all acquaintances, although they didn't usually say anything a few times, but these people were all old stall owners on the antique street, but they were playing wood carving and various handicrafts, such things, Han Peacock usually didn't touch them, because there was not much profit, and it was not easy to pick up leaks.
Seeing these people, Han Peacock knew why they came here.
Han Peacock smiled: "Let's go, go to my office and sit down!" ”
Han Peacock let these people into the office, and someone immediately served tea.
At this time, Ji Shuping said: "Xiao Han, don't blame us for bothering you, if it weren't for Zhilu Dao, you would definitely not sell the good things in your hand, and I would definitely not bring this old brother here." ”
Han Peacock smiled: "It's nothing, for so many years, I have also relied on the antique street to eat, a few old men are authentic craftsmen, and we rely on eyesight to eat, you must know that you are artists, and we are real small traders." ”
The few people brought by Ji Shuping were all playing wood carving on the antique street, and the wood they usually used was only peach, pear, jujube, apple, willow, walnut, etc.
The better ones are boxwood, ash and other woods, and there are very few times when mahogany is really used, so to speak, although they are also craftsmen, they are the lowest level craftsmen, and they don't seem to be compatible with artists.
However, this is not to say that their craftsmanship is not good, but that the materials they use are too inferior, the audience they face is too narrow, and of course, there are no good resources for them to use, which is also an important reason.
There are four old people sitting here, all of whom have been operating in the antique street for many years, these people have been playing wood carving since childhood, carving for so many years, making a living from this, these years, even if practice makes perfect, they can also make their craftsmanship reach a very high level.
Ji Shuping said: "Xiao Han is a smart person, as soon as we come, he will definitely know what we are going to do, so I won't beat around the bush, Xiao Han, if you use that batch of mahogany, can you give the remaining scraps to these brothers?" ”
Han Peacock smiled and said: "To be honest, I can carve myself, whether it is wood carving, stone carving or jade carving, I have dabbled in it, if it wasn't for Ji Lao to bring you here, I really didn't have the idea of selling scraps, but since Ji Lao has already come to the door, I naturally can't help but give face, when I decompose the wood, I must leave some scraps with a few old men." ”
Li Hongda, who had not spoken at this time, said: "Since Xiao Han is so face-giving, we old guys can't let you suffer, so be it!" If Xiao Han needs something to carve from our old guys, you can produce the materials, and we will process some gadgets for you for free, I think, you should need someone to help you make some, right? ”
Han Peacock looked at Li Hongda, this is really an old man, he has so many materials in his hand, naturally he will not do it alone, if he wants to find someone to help, there is really no better choice for these old men.
However, Han Peacock will have to mix in the antique street in the future, so naturally he can't really let a few whites help, so he simply said: "Although I have a lot of mahogany in my hand now, it won't take much time for these things.
If a few old men really want to play mahogany, I still have a lot of new materials in my hands, and the handicrafts carved with this new material are also very marketable, so that I have raw materials, you have craftsmanship, and we can cooperate.
Just like a jewelry store selling jewelry, a few old men only have to do the work, and the sales can be handed over to the vendors on the antique street, so that they can also earn part of the profits, if the quality of the mahogany jewelry carvings on the antique street is good, it can also advertise the antique street and enhance its image. ”
"That's good, how much old material is there? If Xiao Han can provide mahogany for a long time, can we cooperate? When the time comes, my old season can also follow a little cheap, one of you will produce materials, one will make a craft, and we will sell the things made, and the three parties will benefit when the time comes. Ji Shuping said.
Han Peacock smiled: "What is the price of raw materials, we go according to the market price, how much is the craftsmanship of several old men worth, you all know it, whether it is sold by yourself or handed over to others for sale, in fact, there is no difference, but there are more things, and your own sales will be slow, so you can't make a big market." ”
Seeing that several old men were all thoughtful, Han Peacock didn't say much more.
In fact, this was not his temporary idea, but this morning when he saw that the antique street was even hotter, so he had this idea.
However, Han Peacock does not have trustworthy manpower, and he does not have so many masters who can carve wood, so he can only imagine, but he didn't expect that these old men will be automatically sent to the door now.
The magic city is too big, and there are a lot of people on the antique street, not to mention anything else, just a rosary or bracelet market, which is extremely huge.
If the antique street can be supplied for a long time, a large number of genuine small leaf red sandalwood bracelets can really make this market bigger.
A string of four or five hundred yuan, two or three thousand yuan high small leaf red sandalwood bracelet, is really not too expensive things, this thing, whether it is the elderly or children, can be worn, with the consumption level of the citizens of the magic capital, as long as it is launched, the sales are sure to be hot.
The current market is like this, as long as the thing is good, the thing is true, you are not afraid of not being able to sell it, modern people are most afraid of buying fake things, as long as you play the brand, make a reputation, it is not difficult to do big.
And what is Han Peacock most famous for now? It is a large number of mahogany in his hand, if Han Peacock is used as a signboard to establish customers' confidence in the mahogany products of the antique street, Han Peacock is still a little sure. (To be continued......)
