Chapter 418: Empty Pockets
Now the shopkeeper was silent, and Wuyang said: "Belle, forget it if you don't buy it, what's the comparison." Let's go. β
Belle smiled mischievously, "Brother, it's rare for a boss to be so knowledgeable, and people still think I'm wearing a resin bracelet." β
When they arrived at the hotel, Bao'er and Belle slipped into Wuyang's room. Both little women left at the end of February, and today they are rarely together again.
Before going to bed, Wuyang said, "After you came back from Myanmar, what wool yards did you go here?" I'm not going if you've been there. β
Belle said: "We are not the same as before, we stay in each wool yard for a few days, only to see a lot of customers, we buy a few piles of wool to cut out, there are no customers we only select a particularly high-end jadeite, cut a few pieces." So you can go for each. β
"Brother Zhang, who changed rooms with us in the afternoon, wants to buy high-end jadeite, and tomorrow Belle will take my colleagues away, buy some wool for each of them, cut them out and help them sell them, and let them bring one or two back. You pay the money for the wool first, and then deduct it back when you sell the jadeite. I only buy high-grade jadeite, where do you think it's better to go? β
"Everyone can go, those skins that perform well, and they take them in the house, we don't buy them."
"What are you doing here?"
Bao'er said: "The wool here is too expensive, we want to collect it, so we still buy it cheaply at Boss Chen's mine." If you can't sell it and take up funds, there's no need. Wuyang, I will take my sisters to follow you, you and I are responsible for selecting wool, and the sisters are responsible for cutting with Brother Zhang's people, and Brother Zhang's people take away the high-grade jadeite. The sisters brought back the low-gear ones as well. I'll take and pay for the money. lest Brother Zhang know that you are rich. β
Wuyang said, "Okay." So be it. Go to bed early. β
Just after 8 o'clock the next morning, a few cars, buses and trucks arrived at the wool yard. The staff saw that Bao'er brought so many people here, and knew that there was a big business, so they quickly brought paint and brushes, and Wuyang and Bao'er each took a pen and started.
This time it was picked up from the indoor wool, and the afternoon sun looked at the price. Whether it is an overt or dark gambling material, the price has doubled. In the past, the price of a 200-kilogram dark gambling material was up to 2.8 million, but now it is 6 million. If it weren't for the fact that there was no jade in the Dao, Wuyang would definitely not bet.
"Bao'er, don't want those below the ice species, and don't want the jade meat that is too small."
Bao'er nodded, "Zhilu said." β
After the two walked through the open gambling area and the dark gambling area, they each selected about 10 pieces of wool, and the staff and armed police soldiers moved them to the stone-cutting room. Bao'er went to pay, and Wuyang and Brother Zhang went to the Daliu area together. The operation is really angry, and you can see a piece 2 meters high from afar. 1.5 meters wide, 1 meter thick large wool, the jadeite inside is 1.5 meters high, 1 meter wide, 80 cm thick, the jade flesh is delicate and tight, it should be glass.
Turning to the other side, it was also full of green, and on the third side, what I saw was a stone with white flowers. Turn to the fourth side, it is jade again, noon sun climbed to the top to see, it turned out that the jadeite inside, the upper half is a layer of skin, only the lower section is 70 cm high is full. However, the upper layer of skin is still relatively thick, more than 15 centimeters.
Wuyang's heart moved, isn't this a natural Taishi chair?
Brother Zhang saw that Wuyang was pondering, so he smiled and said, "Brother, do you estimate that there is any jade in it?" β
"Big brother, you have to agree to my conditions, and I will tell you."
"What conditions, let's say."
"Either you pay for it, big brother, or I buy it and give it to my uncle."
"Okay, I agree, you can say it."
"The jade inside is a natural Taishi chair, weighing more than 1.6 tons. I'm responsible for transporting it back for processing and carving, and then transporting it to the capital, okay? β
"Oh no, I don't want it. I don't believe that you feel so good, but it is really a Taishi chair inside, and our old man can't stand it. You probably know the identity of our old man, where is such a thing? β
"Big brother, you said you agreed to my conditions."
Brother Zhang smiled, "I said that it doesn't count, not to mention that I said at the beginning that I would buy jade with you, not to participate in gambling stones, and I can't accept your gifts." Think about it, how can I repay such a big gift from you? β
Wuyang said: "We are brothers, and we don't talk about returns." β
"Then how do you make me feel at ease? Let's not talk about it, now that you've picked it, either sell it to me or you can take it back yourself. Hurry up. β
"Big brother, I listen to you, I'll give it to you, but it's worth a lot!"
"You don't care about this, you can empty the money in my pocket, you have the ability. This piece of jadeite is worth a lot of money now, and it will be doubled in three years and five years, so don't regret it at that time. β
"Selling to Big Brother, how can I regret it?"
"Okay, let the staff come over. Brother, how much my assets are, no one knows the Dao, and I also hope that you are the first to know the Dao, and the last to know the Dao, understand? β
"Understood, I'm not going to talk nonsense."
"Very good, you will take the bank card from your junior sister later, and the two of us will make the transaction. You still pick and choose, as I said, the more the merrier. β
"Okay, big brother, I'll continue, when the stone is cut, I will command by the side."
"During the day you choose the wool with all your heart, and let them cut the stone at night. We'll come back after dinner. β
Wuyang continued to select. In the large wool area, 3 pieces of large wool were found, and the jadeite in it was both large and high-grade, one of which was glass, which may be imperial green, and the jade meat was more than 5 tons. He has been dealing with jadeite for a few years, and he has never seen such a big imperial green jadeite, so he made up his mind to buy this piece back, and it was not marked.
After the selection, Wuyang and Bao'er went to Daping to choose, and someone was naturally responsible for the follow-up matters indoors.
There are 10 passages and 20 rows of wool in Dapingli. 1000 piles per row. A total of 20,000 piles. Wuyang and Bao'er carried the paint and walked in front to choose. He was followed by the staff of the wool yard and the armed police soldiers.
If you like a bunch of them, they will make marks, and the staff will carry them to the car with a forklift and pull them to the stone cutting room. In the middle of each pile, a few pieces are selected, only one or two pieces are few, and only 7 or 8 pieces are more. Anyway, if there is a piece of high-grade jadeite in the middle of a pile, it will not be let go.
The two of them made it very quickly, and they all chose to eat lunch, and it was less than 3 o'clock. Immediately after the meal, I went to another house. In this house, in the large wool area. Bao'er found a piece of wool, about 3 meters long, wide, and high, almost a cube.
Wuyang was pulled over by her to take a look, the stone skin was less than 10 cm, and the jade flesh was very delicate, which should be made of glass. Brother Zhang was taking a nap in the car, and his attachΓ© was not around, so Wuyang opened his mouth and was ready to let the staff buy it, and the result was 2 billion yuan. It's a bit too expensive, but it should be okay to bargain.
Wuyang smiled and said to the staff, "Sister." I've never seen such a big wool, I want to buy it back and collect it, you can see if you can reduce it. β
"It couldn't be less. The boss bought it from Myanmar, and it cost millions just for shipping, and there was no profit. β
"Eldest sister, the purchase price of this big wool in Myanmar should not exceed 100 million US dollars, and if I buy it for 1 billion yuan, your boss's profit should be more than 200 million. If you don't sell it, if you stay here for a long time, it will take up funds, and there are more things to buy in Myanmar. β
"I'll call the boss and ask."
"Your boss's surname is Mao, right?" Wuyang asked.
"yes, you know our boss?"
"Yes, I came here a few years ago, and his nephew brought it."
"Okay, our boss's nephew is just going home, and I'll eat at the boss's place at noon to see if he's gone."
I called, and the staff said, "The boss will be here soon, please wait." β
Bao'er pulled Wuyang to the side, "I have to go away, the boss here knows me, and the day before yesterday said that I made a lot of money from him." Seeing me here, he's going to raise the price. β
"Okay, it's a good thing for you to go away, remember to take away Brother Zhang's people."
"I'll take them over to see the cut stones." Bao'er finished speaking and left.
Soon, an armed police non-commissioned officer came. Lao Yuan shouted: "Brother Li, it's really you!" How did you get over today? β
"Xiaomao, hello, I'm going home to visit my relatives today."
"No, it's still a mission, it's to accompany a chief to buy wool. Came over last night. β
"It's the chief surnamed Zhang. Hello Boss Mao, I'm here to trouble you again today. β
Boss Mao smiled and stretched out his hand, "A big boss like you, it's good to come every day." What, did you take a fancy to this big piece of wool? β
"Yes. I'm also the same as Xiao Mao, I'm here to help the chief buy wool, and this is what I want to buy. Xiao Mao, don't tell anyone. β
"It's good, big brother, I won't say it. You're going to go to Daping to pick it up later, right? Uncle, are you giving Brother Li a little discount? β
"No, no, Xiaomao, that's a flat price, it's not easy to start this. And I don't know if you're back, otherwise I wouldn't have bargained with your uncle, and it would have been difficult for your uncle. β
Boss Mao said: "Boss Li, don't be embarrassed. I bought this big wool back the year before last, and it did cost 100 million US dollars, but now that the price of wool has risen sharply, I have filled in so much money, I have to make money, right? In this way, you give me 10 billion, and I let you pick 500 piles in Daping without charging money, how about it? β
"No, Boss Mao, I'll give 1 billion, and 500 piles will be paid. You're still discounting me, I'm clear. β
Boss Mao said: "It's still like this, I'll send it back for you, you pick 400 piles in Daping, at a fixed price, if you don't do it, you won't sell it." β
"Okay, I'll listen to you. Thank you. β
"You're welcome, you tell me the address, and I'll arrange for the driver to send it over. You choose the wool in the big ping, anyway, it only takes a few pieces, and it doesn't matter. β
Wuyang smiled while writing the address: "Boss Mao, I feel so good, but I have to take it all." β
"It's okay, I'm not afraid that you will take it, but I am afraid that you will not come. It's all right, right? I won't delay you in choosing, let's go. β
"Okay, please arrange the stone cutting at night. Xiaomao, you should be busy too. β
"Brother Li, I still want to trouble you. My family's wool yard has now expanded as well. It's pretty much the same as my uncle's here. My dad bought a lot of wool. However, due to the remote location and the stiffness with the travel company, few guests go. β
"Okay, let's go over early tomorrow morning, you let the family get ready, we have as many as we want, and your chief will buy it."
"Okay, then Brother Xie Li. Brother Li. The mayor of Lanjiang City has the same name and surname as you, could it be you? β
"Yes, I've been working in Lanjiang for half a year."
Xiao Mao smiled: "Really? I told my comrades that I knew you, and they called me bragging. I can't call you big brother in the future, I have to call you mayor. β
"Xiao Mao, the mayor has no brothers? When we became brothers, I was nothing, and no matter what we became in the future, we were all brothers. β
Xiao Mao smiled: "Brother Li is still the same, without a little shelf. Eldest brother. I retired at the end of the year, how about I go to Lanjiang City to open a wool yard? β
"It may be difficult to form a scale there. But it's okay to sell in small quantities. If you open a small one, a few hundred square meters, sell some small wool, and people spend a few hundred yuan, at most tens of thousands of yuan, you can have an addiction, and the business will definitely be hot. You can even open such a store all over the country. β
"Brother Li is really powerful, he can come up with such a good idea. We people love to gamble and try our luck more or less. I did just that, and I tried to open stores in large and medium-sized cities across the country within 10 years. β
"Well, I wish you a lot of money. You tell your family that tomorrow we must arrange more stone cutters, and our wool will be cut out. β
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
The next day, Wuyang waited for a group of people to arrive at the wool yard of Xiaomao's house. The wool yard has really expanded a lot, there used to be only 6 channels, and each channel only had 500 piles of wool, now there are 10, and each row is also 1000 piles, and the wool warehouse with good skin performance is larger than his uncle's house. Unlike his uncle's house, his family is full of people.
Xiao Mao's family is particularly warm, just drinks, including tea, mineral water, cola, and Chinese food is a famous wine. However, before eating lunch, Wuyang has been working. It rained heavily in the morning, and I didn't rest with my umbrella.
After lunch, Brother Zhang received a message from the first two wool yards, and he knew the amount of jadeite cut out, so he quietly said to Wuyang: "Brother, our procurement task this time has been successfully completed, and you can go with your colleagues in the afternoon." β
Wuyang pretended not to know and asked, "Big brother, are you in a hurry to go back?" β
Brother Zhang smiled: "Even if you are ruthless, you have emptied my purse, and it is still unknown whether you can pay this morning." β
"Big brother, so you don't have to care. It's the same if you give it to me later. Now that there is such a good jadeite, I am afraid that there will be no such shop in this village. It would be polite to buy it next year and double it on the basis of this year. β
"I don't want to, and I really can't let it go, just finish this one, how much I owe you, and slowly make up for it later."
"Big brother, I said don't care. As long as you want to keep choosing, tomorrow, or if I take a few days off, it's fine. β
"Forget it this time, I have money when I return to Beijing, so I'll let you ask for leave. In the afternoon, you continue to be busy here, I will go over and give the scattered money first, and I will come over soon. β
As soon as Brother Zhang left, Uncle Xiao Mao came over with a group of stone cutters and pulled the stone cutter, and the speed of stone cutting was greatly accelerated. Wuyang and Bao'er finished picking at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and they all cut and rubbed out the next morning. They were still eating breakfast, and the attachΓ© arranged by Brother Zhang reported the number.
Brother Zhang asked the beautiful woman to record it, and quickly calculated it, took the calculation results, pulled Wuyang to the room, and transferred the money online. Brother Zhang paid all the money in the account, and still owed Wuyang more than 200 billion.
"Brother, thank you. But I'm going to give way to you, a rich man. β
"Big brother, it's impossible, the price of your jadeite is doubled, and my money will not be doubled, so this first is still the eldest brother's."
"Doubling is just a wish, and it's still unknown whether it can actually be done."
"Big brother, if it doesn't double in two years, I will return the money to you."
"Brother, I believe in you. Boss Qiu has said several times that he has been dealing with you since he started, but in 5 years, his net worth has increased thousands of times. His original book was small, and it was easy to increase it, but my book was big, and I was able to increase it several times, and I was satisfied. β
"Big brother, this also depends on the leadership of the uncle, with the peace and prosperity, the price of these things can rise. Big brother, prosperous jewelry, troubled gold, are you also going to collect some gold? β
"Now that the money is spent, after a while, you will pay back your account, of course, you must collect gold, but also continue to collect jadeite, these things are more secret, you can also pass on to future generations, and you can always increase in value."
Sure enough, two years later, due to the joining of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang consortiums, the price of the Ming gambling wool material that performed well on the Myanmar jadeite public market exceeded the price of the jadeite that Brother Zhang is buying now. That's an afterword.
After saying goodbye to Brother Zhang, Wuyang saw that Hu Changsheng and the others had already left the room, waiting for him in the lobby with their luggage. Wuyang smiled: "This time everyone has gained a lot." β
Deng Qiming said: "Mayor, do you know such a person, you have been helping him run for the past two days, and you don't gamble yourself?" β
"There's no way, it's an acquaintance when we talk, and I can't leave if I want to. This morning, are we going to try our luck at one of them? β
Hu Changsheng said: "Mayor, we all got rich in two days, and the people who came made at least more than 90 million yuan per capita, and more than 100 million yuan, we can't spend all this money in our lifetime, so there is no need to gamble." β
"Hey, you're a little rich, this kind of thinking is unacceptable. You are all brought by my junior sister and have met good luck, do you give me a chance? Let's just buy a bunch of them, and we won't be able to delay them for two hours. β
Deng Qiming said: "We all listen to the mayor anyway, you can go if you say go, I believe your luck will definitely not be worse than that of your little sister." I see if it's all together, let's go. (To be continued......)
