Chapter 57: Layout (2)

Compared with the single-tone white jade, the color of jadeite is undoubtedly more dazzling, although it has only appeared in the jewelry market in the stone market for a few years, it has been very popular with young girls.

High-quality jadeite is also very marketable in some business circles.

Since Nie Tianbao once attended an event of the Chamber of Commerce, he deliberately wore an ice yang green ring on his hand, and wearing a jade ring has become a status symbol.

The purpose of Nie Tianbao's trip to Myanmar this time is to buy some haode jadeite rough stones to meet the needs of the high-end jadeite market in the stone market and surrounding cities.

"By the way, boss, how about the rough stones that went to Myanmar this time? I heard that Boss Ge also bought a batch of goods, and we don't have many finished products left. ”

The topic shifted away from Nie Yuanlong, and Shopkeeper Zhao's expression was much more natural, after all, he didn't want to get involved in the boss's family affairs, this Nie Tianbao was sometimes not a reasonable person.

"Hey, Lao Zhao, this doesn't go out, I really don't know how big Shijie is......"

Hearing the shopkeeper Zhao mention the matter of Myanmar, Nie Tianbao perked up and said: "This time I met a standard king in Myanmar, a thirty-kilogram rough stone, Lao Zhao, guess how much Zuihou was photographed?" ”

"Thirty kilograms isn't a big deal, is it? Removing the stone skin, even if the jade meat inside is good, it is worth millions, right? Shopkeeper Zhao groaned for a moment, stretched out a slap, and said tentatively: "Five million? ”

"Five million? Multiply by six and that's pretty much the same! ”

Nie Tianbao sighed, "I originally thought that my business was not small, compared to those Hong Kong people, it was really a poor boy who entered the city...... I haven't seen the world, and I also bid for that stone, but the price is not even a fraction of the bottom of the bid! ”

To say that Nie Tianbao went to Myanmar this time, he really suffered a big blow, and the net worth he has accumulated for more than ten years is almost hundreds of millions, which is already one of the richest people in Shishi.

Of course, most of Nie Tianbao's assets are investment and fixed funds, and Nie Tianbao only brought the equivalent of more than 6 million US dollars to Myanmar this time, according to the jade market he understands, these money should be able to buy some good rough stones.

But Nie Tianbao did not expect that due to the recent domestic turmoil in Myanmar, the price of jadeite rough suddenly rose a lot, and the demand exceeded the supply, and the rough stones in the hands of retail investors were almost swept away by powerful merchants.

In desperation, Nie Tianbao could only participate in Myanmar's unique jade public market, which was this public market, which hit him hard, because the six million funds could not even make waves in it.

Nie Tianbao bid for a total of twelve pieces of material, but none of Zuihou won the bid, and in desperation, he could only buy some jadeite that others had gambled on at a high price, and finally returned empty-handed.

"Xiao Zhou, you go to the door first."

After hearing Nie Tianbao's words, the shopkeeper Zhao hesitated, and after driving the guys out of the store, he said: "Boss, the wife of Boss Li of Tianhong Group, I wanted to order a set of high-grade jade ornaments some time ago, what do you think of this?" Or...... Let's push it, right? ”

Shopkeeper Zhao was originally waiting for Nie Tianbao to go to Myanmar to come in the rough stones, and sell them to Boss Li after processing, but looking at the situation in front of him, those rough stones are obviously not satisfactory.

"No, you can't push it off!"

Nie Tianbao shook his head and said with a gloomy face: "Lao Zhao, you have been in this industry longer than me, you should understand that others have the goods we don't have, so we won't have an advantage in the competition for customers in the future, I don't want to be pressed by Old Man Ge." ”

"Boss, what should I do? We really don't have the goods in our hands, we can't keep dragging Boss Li, right? ”

Shopkeeper Zhao showed a look of embarrassment on his face, he had been mixing jade for a long time, but it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and he couldn't conjure up a set of superb jade out of thin air.

Nie Tianbao gritted his teeth and said, "That's it, I'll go to the capital tomorrow to see if I can buy a set of finished products from others, even if this business loses money, I can't smash the signboard!" ”

Tianhong Group is the largest private enterprise in Shishi, the boss Li Gongliang has a very deep background, and it is rumored that he has backers in the province and the capital, although Nie Tianbao is also a celebrity in Shishi, but compared with him, he is still inferior by three points.

Therefore, even if Nie Tianbao loses money, he does not want Li Gongliang to buy jadeite from "Qi Shi Zhai", which is related to the credibility and face of "Jade Shi Zhai", he can't afford to lose this person in the stone market business community, and this is also related to the share of "Jade Shi Zhai" in the jade market in the stone market in the future.

Shopkeeper Zhao nodded and said, "That's the only way, Lao Ge has a wide range of connections in the industry, maybe he can really come up with good materials." ”

"Damn, this jade is different from Hetian jade, it is only produced in that ghost place in Myanmar, by the way, Lao Zhao, is there anything else ......?"

Nie Tianbao scolded indignantly, although he didn't finish speaking, but the shopkeeper Zhao had a look of clarity on his face, he knew what the boss was thinking.

Hetian jade is expensive to white, but white jade is not only Hetian jade, like Qinghai jade, Russian jade, all have haode white jade, but the price is much lower than Hetian jade.

Therefore, in the jade industry, it is common to use Qinghai jade or Russian jade to pass off as Hetian jade, which has almost become an unspoken rule in the industry.

Just like the Hetian jade seed pendant in Nie Tianbao's "Jade Zhai" glass cabinet, most of them are shoddy haode with cheap Russian jade.

But what makes Nie Tianbao a headache is that jadeite is only produced in Myanmar, and there is almost no substitute for jade, and domestic jade merchants have little contact with it.

What's more important is that Nie Tianbao has only heard that the jadeite rough can do some tricks on the skin, and he has not heard of any means to cheat the jadeite inside.

"Boss, I used to be exposed to nephrite, and I really don't know much about jadeite, so it's really hard to say."

Shopkeeper Zhao shook his head, he is only in his fifties this year, and he has been playing with Hetian jade since he came into contact with this industry, and he has only paid attention to jade in recent years, and Nie Tianbao is also at the level of half a catty and eight taels.

"Hey, I said you two little rabbits, don't you want to live?"

Just as Nie Tianbao was talking to Shopkeeper Zhao, there was a sudden "bang" sound outside, followed by the shouts of the guys in the store.

Nie Tianbao was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look out of the open gate, only to find two young men, one fat and one strong, running forward desperately, and almost in the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the street full of tourists.

"Zhou Bing, what's going on? Who is this man? Nie Tianbao walked to the door, only to find that a young man on the ground at the door had fallen there covering his face, and couldn't help frowning.

"Uncle Nie, this kid's wallet was stolen, and he had already caught the thief, who knew that there were accomplices, and he gave this kid a punch, and when the two of them ran just now, they hit your car."

The guy named Zhou Bing, after hearing Nie Yuanlong's question, showed a gloating smile on his face, in fact, when this person was looking at things at the stall outside the store just now, Zhou Bing had already found out that he was being targeted by thieves.

To tell the truth, the chubby thief was really not very good, the wallet had already been clipped, his hand shook, and he almost fell to the ground, otherwise the kid would not have found out.

Zhou Bing is a distant relative of Nie Tianbao's family, this kid is also a bad stomach, and he should be watching the excitement, when the young man was beaten just now, he almost called out.

If it weren't for the tall thief who crashed into the car when Zuihou ran away, Zhou Bing wouldn't even bother to speak, such a thing is not uncommon in the antique street.

"The car didn't crash, did it? If it's not bad, let him go, won't it delay business if you block here? ”

Nie Tianbao frowned, and didn't take it seriously, there are many tourists from other places on this antique street, dragons and snakes are mixed, and people lose their wallets almost every day, as long as they are not stolen in his store, Nie Tianbao is unwilling to take care of this idle matter.

Hearing the boss's words, Zhou Bing walked down the steps, raised his leg and kicked the young man who was covering his eyes, and said, "Hey, boy, are you okay?" It's okay to get out of here, don't be here like a pillar! ”

"I fuck your uncle, how dare you kick your grandfather?"

It's just that what Zhou Bing didn't expect was that the young man who had just been punched suddenly became furious, raised his right hand, and slapped Zhou Bing in the face.
