Chapter 320: Discussing the construction of a jade market
Grandpa Zhou said: "Don't be angry with him, he can't help it." The location is good, and with me and your Grandpa Qin opening a jewelry store there, everyone wants to come over, and he can't sell it. However, the price is the highest in the capital, the faΓ§ade is 3 floors, respectively 100,000, 80,000, 70,001 square meters, and the housing is 50,001 square meters. β
"Grandpa Zhou, I don't blame him for selling the building, but he hasn't sued me so far, and last year's accounting statements were also concealed, which is a big problem. In other words, there are hundreds of billions of funds left in his hands, if he absconds with the money, where can I find him? β
Grandpa Qin said: "Wuyang, the funds are also in place one after another before and after the Chinese New Year, and they are not all handed over at once, and he has not handled the collection of these money, it is your mother Yu who collects it, and the sales department is managed by your mother Yu, so you can rest assured." Most of the expenses required by the villa area are handled by your mother Yu. β
Wuyang said, "That's no problem. Grandpa, did we keep that house ourselves? β
"Yes, I want two floors, one floor for Grandpa Zhou, one floor for Uncle Yu, and the rest of the 62 floors are all yours, and we divide the basement into 3 pieces, one for me, Lao Zhou, and you. The faΓ§ade on our side of the road is the same as the other side roads, there are 20 of them, each 800 square meters, leaving you with 18, all of which are now open. β
"Grandpa, I don't know these things, thank you and Grandpa Zhou. I don't even know how to thank you enough. β
Grandpa Qin said: "Our family will not speak two words. β
Grandpa Zhou said: "Wuyang, the faΓ§ade and housing you gave me, as well as the basement. The value is over 100 million. I was able to help. It's too late to rejoice. β
Wuyang said with a smile: "Grandpa Zhou, without your planning, it would be impossible to have such a high value there, or your credit is great." What's going on there? Business is okay, right? β
Grandpa Qin said: "It was really popular for a while before the Chinese New Year, but now it is the off-season after the New Year, and the business is average." But the whole community, including what shops you built, kindergartens, and activity rooms. They have all become gold jewelry stores, and even the first and second floors of many houses have opened jewelry stores, and I don't know how so many jewelry came out at once. β
"Well, it's going to be a must-go place for people to buy high-end jewelry. Grandpa, you, the president, still have to worry more about not letting counterfeit and shoddy jewelry come in, affecting our reputation and ruining our business. β
"Rest assured, we have put in place a set of strict precautions. There will be no problems in this regard. β
"Grandpa, you come here this time. Do you buy wool or cut stones and get the money back? I'll be leaving in two days, so I'll have to make arrangements first. β
Grandpa Qin said: "At the public conference, the main thing is to cut stones and turn money, after the meeting, I want your junior brother to take us to the mine, and then buy a batch of wool to take back, do you think it's okay?" β
"Yes and no. Your plan is fine, but you don't want to go to the mines, let them go young, you can tell me how much you need. β
"Lao Zhou and I both mean this, there is no limit to how much, there is no limit to the quality of the water, just have it."
Wuyang smiled: "That means that as long as there is emerald, the more the better?" β
"That's it. Now it can't be called buying wool, it should be called grabbing wool, and grabbing a piece is a piece. Grandpa Zhou said with a smile.
Wuyang's hearing is good, and when he heard Zhu Qibin's voice outside the door, he said to Mao Dashan: "Brother Mao, please call Zhu Qibin, Hu Minbo and Hu Minqiang in, don't alarm the others." β
After the three of them came in, Wuyang introduced: "Qi Bin, this is your Qin Xiaoying's sister-in-law's grandfather, this is his old man's best friend Grandpa Zhou, and I need your great assistance this time." β
After the three people called "Grandpa Qin, Grandpa Zhou", Zhu Qibin said: "Two grandfathers, I didn't know before, I didn't take good care of them, please forgive me." β
Grandpa Qin said: "You are good enough for us, there is nothing to understand, and I want you to continue to help." β
"It should be, it should be. In the future, I may have come less often, mainly because these two juniors came. Zhu Qibin pulled Allergy Wave and Min Qiang, "Two grandfathers, this should be your successor, just get close to my junior brother." β
"Qibin, just now I met your sister-in-law Wu Fang's two uncles, they are Yangmei's wool merchants, and they have also helped me, they may look for me at night, no matter what, they will agree to any request anyway."
"Okay, you can arrange it."
"Hu Minbo, Hu Minbo, where did you run away all at once?"
Zhang Ya's shouting sounded outside the door, and Wuyang said, "Let's disperse, Minbo, you go out." β
As soon as the door was opened, Zhang Ya ran in in a hurry, and Wuyang smiled: "Brother and sister, you can't leave Minbo for a few minutes?" β
Zhang Ya blushed, "Big brother, why are you, when did you come?" β
"I just arrived, I heard that you went shopping, is it fun?"
"It's not fun, I just came back after a while, and I didn't buy anything."
"Minbo, what did Zhang Ya fancy about?"
Hu Minbo said: "It's just curiosity, there is no specific goal. β
Wuyang said: "Zhang Ya, wait until the end of the public market conference to buy something, the price will be much lower." When the time comes, it should be noted that some things cannot be brought back to China and will be confiscated. β
Zhang Ya said: "Min Bo is a poor bastard, and he has $50,000 in his pocket, what can he buy?" Forget it, I don't think it's all needed. β
Wuyang said with a smile: "Tomorrow I will give his brother 50 million euros each, and then use it to gamble stones, and buy whatever he wants when he earns money." β
Zhu Qibin said: "Big brother, don't give it, you can't give it to anyone or not, I will pay for the gambling stones, I didn't give them today, I was worried about not being safe, I will transfer it to them tomorrow afternoon." β
"It's okay, you just have to be in control. What about Miss Qian? β
"Sleeping in the room. I'm so tired these days that I can't eat, and I'm always throwing up. β
"Congratulations. Rejoicing again. Don't know when you're at home, right? β
"Blame me for not caring. It's been more than a month, and she shouldn't have been allowed to come over. β
Wuyang said with a smile: "Qi Bing, Miss Qian came back from the United States, and it was only two months, and you were still in Myanmar at that time." β
Zhu Qibin said with a smile: "Big brother, you are also from here, this kind of thing is not something that can be laid with a look, not to mention that we still have the consent of both parents." You ask Miss Ya, who tosses with Min Bo for half the night every day. β
Zhang Ya pretended to cry. "Big brother, I died unjustly, I always practiced with Minbo, and now I'm still a virgin, my reputation is so bad, what kind of martial arts are you doing."
Wuyang smiled and said, "Ya girl, you are a stupid girl, how can you say such a thing?" As long as the two of them like each other, they are in a good mood when they stay together and do anything, and Minbo has practiced martial arts. You'll be okay in the future. β
Zhang Ya said: "Then Brother Zhu said it on purpose, isn't he also practicing the same martial arts as you?" β
"Got it. He's teasing you. You have been provoked by him, and all the secrets have been revealed. Brother Mao, we Minqiang have no one to accompany us to practice martial arts, can you introduce the Burmese girl? β
Mao Dashan said: "Does Min Qiang know English? β
Hu Minqiang said: "It will be a little bit, but it has not reached the level of being able to talk." β
"That's troublesome, it's easy to introduce girls, but there's not much choice."
"Then find someone who understands Chinese. Let's go, let's eat. β
went to Yu Ying and Zhang Ling's room to ask them to eat, and asked if they could find a Chinese girl who was Hu Minqiang's wife, Yu Ying said: "In the past, our sisters had them, but now they must all be married, and we can only find someone who is two years younger than us." β
"I can't take care of it so much now, you just tell the truth about Hu Minqiang's situation, you will definitely have money in the future, and it's no problem to ask for dollars and gold now."
"Okay, we'll call right away."
"Eat first, then talk after eating. I'll come to your room at night, and tell me when the time comes. Let's go. β
After eating in the dining room, I met Uncle Huang and Uncle Zheng again, and after the meal, the two went to Wuyang's room together. Wuyang made tea, took out the cigarettes he brought, and handed them before chatting with them.
"Uncle Huang, Uncle Zheng, what do you command?"
"Xiao Li, you should know something about us, but we haven't been there for two years, and the situation has changed somewhat." Uncle Zheng said.
"What changes, tell me."
"In the past, we Yangmei mainly auctioned wool and processed jadeite objects to Hong Kong jewelers for sale, after the Asian financial crisis, Hong Kong jewelers no longer have enough economic strength to buy jade, foreign jewelers directly came to Yangmei to buy, we old jadeite merchants can not adapt for a while."
Wuyang said, "Uncle Zheng, this is an excellent opportunity. β
"Yes, but there are opportunities and risks. Our wool is basically auctioned back on the public market, in case there is no jadeite out of qiΔ, or only one of the many pieces of wool has jadeite, our cost will be very high, and the product will not be competitive, so we might as well continue to sell wool, and the opportunity will not pass in vain. Uncle Huang said.
"You two are my elders, just say what you have to say."
Uncle Zheng said: "We have a lot of people in Yangmei who are preparing to build a jade market, we looked at the jade cut out of your grandfather's house, we looked at the cut of 3 pieces, although the grade of jadeite is high and low, but there are blocks, we do not require such a high proportion, 10 pieces can be cut out of one or two, there is enough money to make." So, the two of us want to cooperate with you and also set up a jade market, you are responsible for selecting and buying wool, and we are responsible for processing and selling, each accounting for 33% of the shares, what do you think? β
Wuyang said, "Okay, I completely agree. What is the specific plan of the two? β
Uncle Huang said: "There are two ways for us to discuss, one is the same entry and exit method. How much money does it take to build a market, how much does it cost to buy wool, how much is the processing fee and various taxes, and how much profit is gained. The second is that you are responsible for purchasing wool, and we only accept wool in Yangmei. For example, a piece of 50 kilograms of wool, how much is it in the jadeite market, or divided into full gambling and semi-gambling materials, we will settle with you at this price after receiving it, and pay you the wool payment, if the jadeite is cut out. Then pay you a certain percentage of the price according to the grade. You don't care about the future. β
Wuyang smiled: "Uncle Huang." Your latter solution is a bit simpler, but I think there's a simpler way than this. β
Uncle Zheng said, "What's the easy way? β
Wuyang said: "I don't participate in the construction of the market, I only invest wool into your market, you help me set up a professional auction house for jadeite, no matter how much jadeite is auctioned, you will share it proportionally." If you fancy the jadeite you want to keep, you will block the mark. Then use the share to offset the jadeite payment. How about quarterly or semi-annual settlements? β
Uncle Zheng said, "It's really not enough, of course I should pay you cash." β
Uncle Huang said: "This is a good way, nephew and nephew, how much share are you going to give us?" β
Wuyang said: "This ratio is really hard to determine, if it's too high, you won't let me suffer, and if it's too low, I won't care." Not only to occupy your space, but also to organize stone cutting, stone rubbing, and auctions. I think 10% is more reasonable. β
Uncle Huang shook his hands vigorously, "No, no, no." Resolutely no. β
Uncle Zheng said: "Xiao Li, you are insincere in giving this ratio. β
"Uncle Zheng, why do you say that?"
"Think about it, the auction price of medium and high-grade jadeite raw materials is tens of millions, or even one or two hundred million, let's build a market and sell 20 yuan a day, then what you give us is hundreds of millions, how can this be believed?"
Uncle Huang said: "Virtuous nephew, we are not afraid of too much money, but we are afraid that this kind of cooperation will not last for a long time, we built a market, spent hundreds of millions, and the production was not a few months, and the raw materials were cut off, so didn't let us go back to the present?" So we'd rather not take a royalty and keep you. β
"Uncle Huang, if you don't collect the royalties, I won't dare to send wool over, I'm a foreigner, and I'm worried that the goods will die on the ground, and when the time comes, I will only pull a few pieces and can't draw them, and if you pull more, it will become the price of cabbage, do you say?"
"This is also a real idea, and we can't afford to guard against it. In this case, you give us 1%, and we will be willing to auction you jadeite. Then you send someone to supervise and collect the money. However, we will make it clear that the jadeite we bid can only be bought at the highest price offered by the guest, and the price cannot be counted. β
Wuyang smiled: "Uncle Huang, this is common sense, there will be no problem." β
Uncle Zheng said, "Xiao Li, our share ratio has been set like this, no problem, right?" Seeing Wuyang nodding, he said: "We used to be business, but now we are cooperating, and there is a problem of integrity in the middle of cooperation." Xiao Li, how are you going to show your sincerity? β
"Uncle Huang, Uncle Zheng, I think that's the case, I'll call my junior brother over immediately, explain it clearly to them, and promise to give you a satisfactory answer."
After speaking, he called Zhu Qibin, Hu Minbo, and Hu Minqiang to come over, and after the three people came, Wuyang said what they had just discussed, and after the three people figured it out, they said: "I think so, after the wool in the clear marking area began to announce the winning results, our wool was cut out, and the jadeite was sold, and in the process of auction, Uncle Huang and Uncle Zheng each selected 3 pieces of jadeite with the largest jade meat, the best color, and the highest grade of water, and blocked the bidding and let them send it back." β
Zhu Qibin asked: "Big brother, if we don't have a good vote in the open bid area, can we do it in the dark mark area?" β
"Of course, until they're satisfied."
"Big brother, what's the block?" Hu Minbo said.
"This is actually a word I borrowed, our jadeite is an auction, it should be called a block. The bidder is the wool producer here, who feels that the price of his wool is too low, and does not want to sell, or wants to sell at a good price, so at the last moment of announcing the bidding results, they bid at a very high price, and the bid is blocked. We blocked the bid, not because we were not satisfied with the result of the bidding, but because we wanted to know how much the jadeite was worth. β
Uncle Huang said: "Virtuous nephew, we are okay like this, what do you want from us?" β
Wuyang said: "My requirements are as follows: 1, the jadeite you stopped selling this time cannot be used for production, and it can be collected or used as a mortgage; 2. The wool I shipped over cannot be auctioned as wool; 3. In the future, the jadeite you stop selling cannot be resold, but can only be used for production and processing; 4. Your jade market should be built as big as possible, and no one will build more than you within 10 years. β
Uncle Zheng said: "The last three points are easy to understand, but the first point is why? β
"There are 3 pieces of jadeite here, both big and good, if you use it for production, if the scale is not large, you can sell it for 3 years, it will inevitably cause you to be at peace with what you encounter, and the jade market may become a bubble."
Uncle Huang said: "You think very thoughtfully, no problem, we will follow yours, when you return to China, we will sign a contract." I think this contract should be signed for 20 years, I'm old, your brother Ahai is still young, it's definitely no problem. β
Wuyang said: "Brother Hai and I are both young, even if we sign for 30 years." β
Uncle Zheng said: "Don't sign for 30 years, there will be no mineral sources in Myanmar at that time, isn't it useless?" β
Wuyang smiled: "I didn't expect this layer, just rely on you." β
Uncle Huang said: "We will call back immediately and ask Ah Hai to buy the land. Lao Zheng, how about the farmland and vegetable fields behind our two families? β
"It can be, but it's not that big." Uncle Zheng said.
Wuyang asked, "How old?" β
"There are more than 300 acres." Uncle Huang said.
"Uncle Huang, if it were me, more than 300 acres would be too small for me, at least pick a place about 1,000 acres in size. Now you can't just build a market, but also pay attention to the scenery, feng shui, but also the parking lot and the place where the wool is stacked and the wool is cut, our market here has an underground parking lot, the lower 5th or 6th floor is the market, and the top is the residence, the scene is very big, and each market has made a lot of money. β
Uncle Zheng said, "It's so big, who will run it?" β
Uncle Huang said: "Virtuous nephew, can you recommend some businessmen to come over and run the business when the time comes?" β
"No problem, I'll buy 100 shops and 100,000 square meters after it's built. Of course, there can be no shortage of residential buildings, I also set 200 sets, 50,000 square meters. There are also garages and warehouses, which are also more than 50,000 square meters. β
Uncle Zheng said: "A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase." β
"Virtuous nephew, how about we ask your parents-in-law to design it?"
"It's up to you. I believe in your vision. β
Uncle Zheng said: "Xiao Li, although Lao Huang and I have a little wealth, we are both people who want to get rich, and we don't want to lose our capital, and now I still have no bottom in my heart." β
"Uncle Zheng, I have a way, you will definitely be sure after listening to it."
"Okay, you tell me about it." (To be continued......)
