Chapter 94: Heading to Pingzhou

"Yu Fei, are you okay?" Ye Jianjun, who was sitting in the back seat, was a little trembling. Originally, Yu Fei's driving skills were average, and the ball on the co-pilot made trouble from time to time - he went up and licked Yu Fei's hand a few times, which made Ye Jianjun, who was desperate for his life, frightened.

This time I went to Pingzhou and drove two cars, Lao Song and Master Shen took Ye Jianjun's Land Rover, and the driver was Lao Song's driver; Ye Jianjun originally wanted to talk to Yu Fei, so he got on Yu Fei's Hummer, but what he didn't expect was that Yu Fei wanted to drive by himself.

"Brother Ye, don't worry, I've driven on the plateau of XZ, are you still afraid that I won't be able to drive out of the highway?" Yu Fei said with a smile.

"Come on, there are few XZ cars, and you may not be able to meet one after driving for half a day, but you get on the car at high speed, you should be careful, it's really not good, let Qi Zhi drive it." Ye Jianjun was still a little uneasy, "I said Xiaozhi, what kind of snow wolf king is Qiuqiu?" How can I look more flattering than Jingba? ”

Qiuqiu seemed to understand Ye Jianjun's words, turned around and stared at Ye Jianjun fiercely, and let out a roaring demonstration in his mouth.

Although Qiuqiu's body is still small now, it is also quite powerful, and Ye Jianjun is still a little hairy in his heart.

"Qiuqiu sits!" Yu Fei said: "Brother Ye is a friend, can't he know the Tao like this in the future?" ”

Qiuqiu whined twice in dissatisfaction and lay down again.

Although Pingzhou is famous in the jade world, it is only a small town, dozens of kilometers away from Guangzhou City, and Foshan is even closer.

First, it became a distribution center for jadeite bracelets in the country and became famous, and then became famous for the continuous jadeite public market in recent years, and became a holy place to create countless jadeite myths. The vast majority of the raw materials in the Pingzhou standard market come from Myanmar public market. Many merchants will get the raw materials there or untouched, or decompose again and transport them to Pingzhou, and even bid for them many times, which is called "secondary public offering" by industry experts.

Before coming, Master Shen also briefly explained the taboos of gambling stones to a few people, such as: "I don't look at color under the lamp." "The color difference is one grade, and the price difference is ten times. "Wait. However, Yu Fei and the others have not come into contact with the jadeite rough, so they have no concept at all, and they hear it in the clouds, which is plausible.

By the time I arrived at Pingzhou, it was already past noon, and July and August were the hottest times in GD, and the sun was shining on my body. A few people went to the hotel to check in, and then had lunch in the hotel. The hotel has been set for a long time, and it is listed as a four-star. There are too many jade merchants and stone gamblers who flock to Pingzhou because of the jade market, and if you don't book in advance, I'm afraid you can only stay in a small hotel.

After eating, Master Shen went out and brought two membership cards of the Pingzhou Jade Association with him.

Different from entering the Myanmar public market and paying a deposit, to participate in the Ping Chau public market, you must have the status of a member of the Ping Chau Jade Association, and each member can bring up to three companions into the bidding field.

Therefore, the status of the members of the Pingzhou Jade Association has also been hyped, and there are more than 30,000 people, and the annual membership fee is more than 10 million. The gold content of membership is also getting lower and lower, and it seems that as long as you have money, you can become a member.

Master Shen was originally a member, but because of the temporary joining of Yu Fei and Qi Zhi, he could only ask a friend to get a membership card for Ye Jianjun.

Because they had been in the car for most of the day, except for Qi Zhi, several people seemed a little sleepy, and they didn't even have the energy to go shopping on the most famous jade street in Pingzhou.

Song Xicai originally proposed to find a bathing center to relieve his fatigue, but several people refused.

Ye Jianjun explained to Yu Fei that he would go back to the room after explaining that he would "hurry up and rest, and I may have to go out later".

Yu Fei and Qi Zhi went back to their respective rooms to take a shower, watched TV for a while and fell asleep.

At about eleven o'clock in the evening, Yu Fei was woken up by the ringing of the phone.

"Brother Ye? What's the matter at such a late hour? Yu Fei couldn't help but ask strangely when he saw that it was Ye Jianjun calling.

"I said, are you really sleeping? Hurry up and open the door for me! Ye Jianjun knocked on the door for a while just now, but Yu Fei was stunned and didn't hear it.

Yu Fei got up barefoot and opened the door, only to find that it was not only Ye Jianjun outside the door, but also Master Shen, Lao Song, Qi Zhi and others.

"What's wrong?" Yu Fei looked at his phone: "Is it evening or morning?" ”

Ye Jianjun looked at Yu Fei, who was only wearing a pair of shorts, angry and funny, and dared to love this kid who thought that he came to Pingzhou to sleep.

"What's the? Hurry up and get dressed and come with me. ”

The little ball also followed upside down, and it seemed more energetic in the middle of the night than during the day.

Five minutes later, two SUVs followed a Santana 2000 out of the hotel.

Knowing that Ye Jianjun was going to see the original stone, Yu Fei couldn't help but ask strangely: "Didn't Master Shen say that he didn't look at the color under the lamp?" I'm afraid I'll lose my eyes when I look at the rough now, right? ”

"You remember this full prison. But this is also a matter of being willing to fight and be willing to suffer. The seller arranges to see the rough stone at night, in addition to the better color of the rough stone under the light, but also to ensure their reputation, if the bidder knows which rough stone merchant's raw materials have been picked before the public market, I am afraid it is difficult to sell at a high price. ”

Ye Jianjun said with a smile that he had asked Master Shen this question in the afternoon, and at this time, he pointed out Yu Fei like an expert.

Tomorrow morning, the Pingzhou public market will open, and tonight is also the most important time to privately select the rough stones! Originally, Ye Jianjun wanted to come early, but it was delayed because of Yu Fei's treasure appreciation conference.

The three cars came to a large warehouse, and when they were about to reach the warehouse, they passed by an oncoming car.

Ye Jianjun's face suddenly became unpleasant.

As soon as Master Shen got out of the car, he called a young man about 30 years old in the leading car, his surname was Wu, a native of Pingzhou, and a professional "broker", that is, a person who matched sellers and buyers.

"Xiao Wu, what's going on?" Master Shen said in an unkind tone, "Didn't you say that we were the first batch?" What's going on? ”

Master Shen is a frequent customer of Pingzhou Gambling Stone, and the customers he brings are generally extraordinary, so Xiao Wu promised to let them choose first. However, this is all the usual language of the broker, and everyone will say that they are the first to choose, and no one can tell what the truth is.

However, it is rare for the previous batch and the latter to "crash" like today.

Xiao Wu is clever, and it is difficult to justify himself.

"Ouch, Master Shen, I also have bitterness that I can't say. Originally, I arranged for you to come and see the first batch, but you only arrived today, and the market will open tomorrow, so people can't wait, right? Xiao Wu said with a bitter face. Just like hotel reservations, are you not allowed to arrange other guests if you don't come after the deadline?

Although they felt that what Xiao Wu said made sense, Ye Jianjun and the others still felt very unhappy. Even if you pick first, you won't be able to pick all the good rough stones, but just like women, most men still want to come out on top. Moreover, Ye Jianjun came to Pingzhou to gamble on stones in order to hoard some wool, and after a few years, the wool rose before changing hands and selling it, so the skin color requirements for wool were relatively high. Otherwise, you stock up on a bunch of wool that performs poorly, and there is little room for price increases in the future.

Xiao Wu stepped forward and knocked on the iron door, and there were several dog barks inside. After a while, the door opened, and the light emitted from it made several people unconsciously squint their eyes.

Three figures walked out of the door, and because of the lighting, they couldn't see their faces clearly.

Xiao Wu walked up to the fat figure in the middle and complained, "Boss Hu, didn't you say that you didn't arrange someone to look at the goods before me?" How can you explain this to the guests? ”

Boss Hu was very afraid of heat because of his body, and said apologetically while wiping his sweat: "Don't get me wrong, those people just now are all friends of Lao Hu, and they didn't come to pick the rough stone." Can't you believe Lao Hu's character? ”

Boss Hu's words, Ye Jianjun and others naturally didn't believe a word.

"Boss Hu, if you say that, it's really boring, I don't think this stone is looking. Xiao Wu, the rough stone merchant shouldn't be the only one with no other branches, right? Ye Jianjun said lightly.

Boss Hu made it clear that he was talking nonsense with his eyes open, and he regarded a few people as the boss. Although Ye Jianjun is not deeply involved in the industry, he will not suffer such a dumb loss.

"Don't." Boss Hu quickly moved his fat body and walked in front of Ye Jianjun, he saw that Ye Jianjun was the head of this group of people, took out a cigarette and handed it over. But Ye Jianjun simply ignored it.

"What do you call this boss?" Boss Hu embarrassedly withdrew the cigarette and asked.

"This is Boss Ye from Kyoto." Xiao Wu introduced on the side.

"Boss Ye, today's incident is something my old Hu did wrong. But I have a lot of rough stone materials here, if Boss Ye has a fancy to it, the price of all the rough stones is all 95% off, do you think this is okay? Boss Hu said.

Ye Jianjun glanced at Master Shen, and Master Shen nodded secretly.

Ye Jianjun let out a faint "um" and said, "I hope Boss Hu really has good goods." If you fool us with some bricks, then Boss Hu is really not enough friends. ”

Ye Jianjun's words were cold, and he could hear Boss Hu's intuition that his neck was cold.

Brick material refers to some low-grade jadeite wool with poor transparency and many impurities, Ye Jianjun also heard Master Shen mention it, and now he is an expert in learning and selling.
