Chapter 454: Big Gourd
Wuyang smiled: "I'm sorry, I have to run for them for several days, if you can wait, I have time anyway, I will go through all the wool yards here, and I will meet your requirements." ”
A man in his 50s said, "Boss, may I ask if your surname is Li?" ”
"Yes, my surname is Li."
"My surname is Yang, and Boss Sun, who runs a steel factory, asked me to find you, we went to your house in Zhongnan, and your family said that you came here, and we chased after you, and you must help with this matter."
Wuyang said: "I have been friends with Boss Sun for a long time, and I will definitely help with this matter." Boss Yang, it's still the same sentence, can you wait a few days? ”
Boss Yang said: "It's no problem to wait for a few days, but I'm afraid that the bamboo basket will be empty, and the high-end jadeite will be bought by others." ”
Wuyang smiled: "Don't worry, there is no here, there is still Myanmar, anyway, I just need to satisfy you, okay?" ”
"Okay, Boss Li, Boss Sun said that you are a very trustworthy person, since you agreed, we are relieved. This is my business card, you can buy enough for them, just call me, we won't be here for a few days. ”
"Okay, you wait for my call."
Boss Yang said: "Boss Li, if you help us buy enough jadeite, I will surprise you." ”
Wuyang said, "Oh, why did Boss Yang teach me? ”
"I've heard Boss Sun say that you're collecting inkstones, maybe I can be effective in this regard."
"Really? That would be great. I don't know what kind of inkstone Boss Yang can help me collect. ”
"A kind of Liao inkstone in our northeast, have you ever heard of Boss Li?"
Wuyang smiled: "Please forgive me for being lonely, I really haven't heard of it yet." ”
Boss Yang said: "That's not strange. Liao inkstone is a kind of local inkstone. Although it has been a thousand years old. But the north is a place that emphasizes military force over literature. The inkstone is not as famous as the Duan inkstone and the She inkstone, but there are still exhibits in the museum. ”
"I remember, isn't it that kind of Qingyun inkstone and purple cloud inkstone?"
Boss Yang smiled and said, "Boss Li still understands Liao Yan." ”
"I just saw it in the museum and forgot about it afterwards. Boss Yang, can you help me make Liao Yan, can you get it? ”
Boss Yang said: "It depends on how to get it." If it's just a few inkstones, it's not very difficult, if you need more. Engraving is more difficult. ”
Wuyang said: "What Boss Yang means, is there still a material for carving an inkstone, right?" ”
"Yes. In Qiaotou Town, my hometown, there are still a lot of this kind of stone, and the common people use it to enclose the vegetable garden. However, now everyone does not know the value of Liao Yan, and it has not been developed yet. ”
"Since Boss Yang knows about it and is very powerful, why don't you do it?"
Boss Yang said: "My strength, in terms of capital, is still general, and I can produce Liao Yan." Funding is only one aspect, the main thing is engraving technology and selling products. I can't do either. I don't have so much energy to do it myself. If Boss Li is interested, I can help. ”
Wuyang said: "I don't need your help, how about we cooperate in development?" ”
"It's good, I don't know what foundation Boss Li has in this regard."
"There are no people who carve inkstones, but my friends have a lot of people who carve jadeite, so I can borrow some. Although you can't borrow it and use it, the engraving should be the same, and it won't be too difficult to change careers. Also, many of my friends run jewelry stores, and some involve the four treasures of the study, and they will be sold on behalf of them, and the handling fee will be given according to the rules. ”
"Since you have these favorable conditions, I only need to help you buy the stone mountain, and you can organize people to mine the stone by yourself, and there is no need for me to participate in the shares."
Wuyang said: "Boss Yang is unwilling to participate in the shares, and I can't help it." However, if I want to do it, I just want to make it bigger, and it's not interesting to make a small fuss. ”
Boss Yang smiled: "Okay." When the matter here is over, I will go back and contact and buy all the rocky mountains. Once you have made contact, I will call you and tell you. ”
"Okay, let's exchange phone numbers."
exchanged mobile phone numbers, Boss Yang and the others left, and Wuyang continued to choose. This time, there was no way to speed up the progress, there were only 4 of them, and they couldn't let Xiao Ye and Xiao Zhang know the truth, so they could only choose one to cut the other, and then go to the other after the pound was collected.
The next day, the manpower was increased, and Aizhong and Aihua were also called over to help collect the money, so the progress was accelerated a lot. After 6 busy days, half of Tengyue's large wool yard is gone, and Boss Du's demand is still gone, and Wuyang is worried that he will be happy with Boss Yang's appointment, and he can't be like this.
After discussing with Bao'er and Belle, Bao'er said, "Just cut the wool we bought from Myanmar, cut as much as you want, and let them continue to wait if it's not enough." ”
Belle said: "This is one way, another way, is that you don't keep your eyes on these big wool fields, those small ones, maybe the wool is better." ”
After another two days, Boss Du and they finally had enough, but there were only two left in the big wool yard. Recruit Boss Yang and them, and it took a day and a half to complete the two large wool yards.
In the afternoon, I arrived at a very remote small wool yard, which was in a mountain nest, and when I entered the door, there was a house on one side, and wool on the other, although it was also placed in a pile, but there was no building at all, it was a pile here, a pile there.
"Boss, we want to buy wool, what price do you have here?"
The boss smiled: "Don't ask the price, everyone is the same." The iron shelf inside the house is according to the marked price, and the outside is 5,000 yuan per kilogram. ”
"Do you have many stone cutters here? We bought it all to cut out. Wuyang said.
The boss said: "I won't tell you, I'll add myself here, and only 3 people can cut stones." However, if you need to, you can still go to another venue to hire someone. ”
Wuyang smiled: "Everyone has dozens of masters, and you only have a few here, isn't the business very good?" ”
"If you want to say that this business is done, my family is still ancestral, and I have been doing it for decades. But business hasn't been doing well. My grandfather was back then. It's war. At that time, my father was not allowed to do things, and no one wanted them, which was reasonable, but over the years, everyone has made a fortune, and our business is still not good. ”
"I'm here, and your business will be fine. You can call some masters first, and then you will be able to choose the wool. You're too busy to win. ”
"Really, that's your blessing. Boss, are you really looking for someone? What's your last name? ”
"Your surname is Li, I'm about to go all over your wool yard here, and everyone knows me. Boss, what's your last name? ”
"My surname is Mao, my ancestors are soldiers on the border here, and there are many people surnamed Mao here."
"Boss Mao, it's okay if you don't call first, let's take a look at the wool."
A group of people went inside. Wuyang saw several large wool materials on the side of the road at a glance, one of which was larger than all the big wool materials in his house. "Boss Mao. How did such a large amount of wool come here? ”
"It was shipped back by my grandfather, the year before my father was born, and if he was alive, he would be 85 years old. This is my grandfather spent 5,000 oceans to buy the price, and invited a dozen people, 60 horses, it took 2 months to pull it back, and the freight cost was 3,000 oceans. ”
Wuyang said: "If these oceans are left, it will be more than 3 million." ”
"Boss Li, this can't be compared. Grandpa said that if someone buys this piece of wool, it will be the time for our family to make a fortune. Are you fancy? ”
"Boss Mao, you have to tell me what price, I just saw it, otherwise you know I want it, I can't pull it out when I see it in my eyes, and I desperately shout the price, won't the business be done?"
Boss Mao said: "I won't ask for a high price, just the big market, 30,000 yuan per kilogram." ”
"Boss Mao, people have 30,000 yuan of wool per kilogram, but they are all placed on the iron shelf, and the table is quite good, your big wool is a stone. I think if it's 5,000 yuan per kilogram, we can negotiate. ”
"Boss Li is really good at telling jokes, how can he put such a big one on the iron shelf? This wool list is not very good, but the ancestor left a word, I can't be a loser, right? You'd better watch it first, and we'll talk about it slowly. ”
Wuyang took a look at the appearance, just like the big wool in Yan Zerun's house, it is also a cuboid, but one side of that piece is two meters, and here it is 3.3 meters, that is, one zhang of the city system, the length should be 3 zhang, nearly 10 meters, the metric unit is 9.9 meters, according to the density of the stone 3.0, there are more than 320 tons, it is really a giant.
Looking into it, there is a gourd inside, the big one is close to the outer wall of the stone, the small one is about 1.5 meters in diameter, and the neck of the gourd is about 1.2 meters in diameter. The particles inside are almost indistinguishable, so small that they couldn't be finer.
"Boss Mao, give a real price, and we will make a deal if we can negotiate."
"Good. According to 20,000 yuan per kilogram, the total weight is 323.433 tons, you will give 6468000 yuan, and the latter will be exempted. ”
"Okay, deal. Let's go transfer and transfer it when we buy it. ”
The two of them entered the house, and one of the bosses with Boss Yang shouted: "Boss Mao,......" The words behind it were not spoken, and the two looked back and saw that the person who spoke was stopped by Boss Yang.
The two of them transferred money, and when they saw Boss Yang and that person arguing, they guessed that they were almost inseparable, it must be that person who wanted to rob his own business and was stopped by Boss Yang. Wuyang realized that it is really dangerous to talk about business like this, people talk about cattle and horses, they have to touch their fingers in their sleeves, and they don't know how to avoid it? If it weren't for Boss Yang, this business would be yellow, and the loss would not be a little bit. The jadeite gourd should have about 60% of the total weight, that is, about 116 tons, so that the cost of high-grade jadeite is only about 55,000 yuan per kilogram, and it is almost missed.
Wuyang pulled Boss Yang to the side, "Boss Yang, did your friend just now want to steal business?" ”
Boss Yang nodded. Wuyang didn't say anything more, and the idea of rectifying that person arose in his heart. has never harmed anyone in his life, this time it depends on whether he gives himself a chance.
"Boss Mao, do you sell all these big wool materials?"
"Of course, I wouldn't dare to cut such an expensive wool myself. If you still want it, the price is still the same. The piece was measured by my son, and these are the weights obtained from the weighing. ”
There are also 5 large pieces of wool, all weighing about 5 or 60 tons. The afternoon sun is running and looking at the past. One of them is full of green. There is a piece of the inside is divided into several balls, the weight may account for about half of the large wool, and there are two pieces of wool in it is still okay, at least much stronger than buying jadeite. Only one piece was empty, and Wuyang couldn't believe it at first, such a large wool was full of stones.
In this way, it is inevitable that I will look at it for a while before I speak. "Boss Mao, I ...... this big wool"
The man just now immediately rushed to say, "I want it, I want this piece." ”
Boss Mao said: "Boss Li, look? ”
"We came together, and he wanted me to be the same."
Boss Mao said, "Okay, let's transfer money." ”
At this time, Aizhong said, "Wuyang, let's go see the one on the iron shelf." ”
"Good. Boss Yang, you can buy these big wool materials if you want, and I will buy them all if you don't want them. I'm going to transfer money with Boss Mao. ”
Boss Yang said: "We won't gamble on stones for more than a billion yuan, if you want it." Boss Li. I didn't look closely at your junior sister at first, I thought she was a local. It's all this complexion, listen to her, and look carefully at her appearance, it's not Ermaozi, it seems to be a foreigner. ”
Aizhong said: "My grandfather is Chinese, and my grandmother is a foreigner. This complexion is sunburned. ”
Boss Yang smiled: "I believe this, Boss Li is similar to you, he has only been here for a few years, and he is almost without those two points of plateau red." ”
Wuyang said: "Your boss Yang is still here for half a month, and he is almost the same as me." I'm not afraid of the sun, and many of my colleagues are like Africans. Let's go, let's stop basking in the sun here and go in for tea. ”
"Boss Li, we won't follow you later, so as not to cause any extraneous branches, if you leave in anger, we will be blind."
Wuyang said: "Don't be afraid, this is the same as digging a mallet over there, the mallet will run, because everyone's life is different." In our hometown, it is said that what insects eat what vegetables, and if they are insects that eat cabbage, they can't eat chili peppers. You are experts in running a business, if you buy wool is also an expert, and let others live? ”
Another boss said, "We're not experts, we're just lucky." For example, this time we want to buy jadeite, and Boss Sun introduced you to the remote, I couldn't find you, but I met you again in the remote, this is luck. I don't believe that luck will be good and good, and the god of luck has always favored me, so I don't have the courage to gamble on stones. ”
Wuyang said with a smile: "Honest people have the benefits of honest people, and adventures have the fun of adventure. Let's go, let's go to the iron shelf in the room to pick up wool. ”
Boss Yang said, "You don't buy those big wool materials?" ”
"I'm a superstitious person, since someone is fighting, I don't know whether to get rich or unlucky, let's wait for him to cut out and see."
In fact, I thought in my heart, when you cut it down, it's no wonder if I don't bargain hard. I was too anxious about that piece just now.
When a group of people arrived at the house, they saw that Boss Mao had already taken people and dragged the stone cutter outside to cut stones. Wuyang didn't care about them, and he ran his own real qi to select wool. A woman in her 40s came to register, and when she saw the brush in Wuyang's hand, she almost clicked all the way, whether the window was open or not.
There are more than 1,000 pieces of wool in the two rooms, and more than 800 pieces are asked for at noon, and there are more than 100 pieces of two or three tons of wool, which are also required.
The woman said, "Boss, are we going to transfer money?" ”
Wuyang saw that the price here was relatively low, the water was good, the jade meat was big, and there was nothing to talk about, so he said: "Have you calculated it clearly, let's transfer it when you calculate it clearly." ”
"We'll review it later, we'll be clear."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you. After the transfer, let's go outside and pick it up, okay? ”
"Boss, aren't you going to cut stones? You may not win today, so don't choose, choose not to pay, afraid that others will leave, and if you give money, you are afraid of losing it. ”
"Okay, let's find someone to cut the stone immediately."
After the transfer, I returned to the big wool and saw that the big wool had been cut into small pieces, and Boss Yang's friend's face was already green, and he shouted: "Keep cutting, it's all chopped." ”
After another half an hour of cutting, it was finally all crushed and the stone cutter stopped. Wuyang said: "Boss, buy the next one again, and get up where you fall." ”
The man shook his head, "No, cut down the more than 1.2 billion." Also able to withstand. If you keep cutting it. I'm afraid that there is no end to the bankruptcy, forget it, spend money to buy a lesson. ”
Boss Mao said: "Boss Li, do you still buy big wool?" ”
"I don't buy it, mine hasn't been cut yet, I don't know if it's also a stone inside, it's not fun to have such an expensive stone."
"Boss Li, let's discuss?"
"What are you discussing?"
"How about 10,000 per kilogram of these pieces?"
Wuyang smiled. "Just ask them."
"Is 5000 good?"
"Boss Yang, you can buy it, it's only 5,000 yuan a kilogram."
Several people shook their heads. Boss Mao smiled and said, "Boss Li, didn't you say that if I meet you, my family's business will be good?" You can help, buy it all, and we'll cut it out right away, okay? ”
"Your business isn't good, is it? Earn so much all at once. I bought thousands of dollars in it, and I haven't cut it yet, so you can arrange someone quickly. I'll buy all 4 of them. You name how much. ”
"It's a total of 205 tons here, so you can give 10 billion. I don't want the mantissa anymore, is it okay? ”
"Okay, deal. You arrange to prepare the stone cutting, and we will transfer the money. ”
When the transfer came out, the stone cutter pointed to the big wool and asked, "Boss, how do you want to cut it?" ”
Wuyang said: "This piece of the biggest one is not cut first. It's hard to say that there is jadeite in this wool next to it, so you can smash it with a hammer first, and it will be easy to cut it if you smash it halfway.
A few people found a 12-pound hammer and began to smash the wool. Smashing is faster than cutting, two or three times to smash a piece, smashed down are all stones, no need to cut again, you know that there is nothing in it.
Wuyang looked at the time, "Boss Mao, why haven't you come yet?" It's almost 3 o'clock. "I'll ask, you command, don't smash the jade."
Boss Mao walked for a while, and Wuyang shouted: "Don't smash it, cut it, cut it from the place where it was smashed, and just take a knife every 20 centimeters." ”
After two knives, there was not much left, and Wuyang let him go 10 cm from all directions. In this way, less than 5 tons of more than 50 tons remained, and the line was drawn, so that the master took another knife in each of the 6 directions, and the crystal clear jadeite was exposed a lot.
Boss Yang said: "Boss Li, congratulations, it's gone up again, it's gone up." ”
Wuyang said: "It just so happened that the jade is too small." ”
A few masters left one person to rub the stone, and the rest of the people were ready to cut off a piece, Wuyang knew that the jade inside was not much bigger, so he said: "Masters, you are tired of smashing, just cut it from the middle, I will draw a line for you, and you can cut it next to the line." ”
A lot of cars and people came at the gate, and Aizhong said: "Wuyang, they are here to cut stones, and Aihua and I are also going to draw lines." ”
"Do you know how to draw?"
"Got it, don't worry."
There are Aizhong and Aihua pipes over there, and Wuyang is at ease to command here, and it took two hours to wipe them out.
Boss Yang said: "Boss Li, we have never seen such a big jadeite, I am afraid that there is a stone in the middle, are we cutting it off from the middle?" ”
Wuyang said: "You can cut it however you want after the pound." Isn't it fair to cut a stone in the middle and give it to you in its entirety, and to give you money if there is no stone at the weight of the weight that is now weighed? ”
"Fair, fair, we'll do it."
After the payment was made, there was still time, and Wuyang drew a line for the Big Mac and asked the master to cut off the stones on the surface of the gourd. It was a very difficult job, and the stone lay there, unable to move. After a few knives at the small end of the gourd, the big stone cutter cut at both ends at the belly of the largest gourd, and was so busy that it was dinner, and finally cut off dozens of tons of stones.
After dinner and then dry, then with a few cranes to pull over the side, and continue to cut stones, to 11 o'clock in the evening, the iron shelf on the wool and large pieces of wool are wiped well, to the pound to collect money, love in the only come to change the afternoon sun, here has not gone to rub the stone procedure.
"Let's not do it tonight, everyone has worked hard all day, and I'll trouble you tomorrow. It's a little hard work, and you take it and drink tea. "The afternoon sun counted, from the afternoon to now, there are 12 people here, and 1,000 yuan is given to each person.
When he arrived at the stone cutting room, he asked Aihua to pay each master who worked overtime, 35 people, and each person was so many. It's been like this for so many days, and it's going to be 60,000 or 70,000 a day, and it's going to be more than 100,000 a day.
Go back to Belle's wool yard and ask Belle to stop cutting stones. Because according to today's situation, those wool materials can already meet their needs, because there are nearly 20 small wool yards.
Early the next morning, let Boss Mao arrange to rub the stone, and at the same time rent a large truck to send the gourd back. Boss Mao said: "It's not very difficult to rent this kind of car now, I will arrange it, you can arrange a personal escort." ”
Wuyang carried the paint and poured it, and went to the stone piles to select wool. A bunch was selected, first the employees of the wool yard carried the red paint, and then the employees of Sister-in-law He carried the rest.
There is not much wool here, and it is not selected before noon. Wuyang roughly estimated that there should be nearly 2,400 large and small, which is enough for the stone cutter master to be busy for a day, plus he has to load the gourd, so he decided not to go to another one.
The gourd has been rubbed out, and the whole gourd is a white giant, and in the belly under the gourd, is a small yellow gourd. Since it is made of glass, it is almost transparent and can be seen very clearly.
Boss Yang saw the big truck coming and found Wuyang, "Boss Li, aren't you going to sell the gourd to us?" (To be continued......)
