Chapter 368: The opening of the public market
Early the next morning, Chu Chen still got up early in the morning very regularly.
After a boxing trip and cleaning himself up, Chu Chen went out to prepare to have breakfast in the restaurant, but he didn't expect his sister Chu Yulan, who lived not far away, to open the door and walk out at the same time.
Yesterday, Chu Yulan and they did not book this hotel, but later in order to facilitate unified action, they changed to the hotel where Chu Chen and the others stayed, and because of Wan Jijun's relationship, the room was arranged near them.
Smiling and saying hello, Chu Chen saw that his sister seemed to be a little sleepy, so he asked curiously: "Why, I didn't sleep well in bed yesterday?" ”
Chu Yulan said a little embarrassedly: "It's not that I recognize the bed, it's just that I can't sleep with some happiness." ”
Chu Chen knew what his sister was for as soon as he heard it, and when he had dinner yesterday, he told her that after the piece of imperial green was made into jewelry in the future, he would also have her share. At that time, my sister was very excited, if it weren't for the presence of outsiders, she would probably be singing and dancing happily, thinking that she couldn't sleep because of this.
"You girl, you can't sleep when you're happy!"
"That's Imperial Green!" Chu Yulan said with an obsessive look in her eyes: "In our jewelry store in the capital, I have never seen imperial green jewelry, let alone your brother gave it to me!" ”
Chu Chen touched his sister's head and said with a smile: "Since you like it so much, if I get the old pit glass imperial green in the future, I will make a pair of bracelets for you as a dowry." ”
However, Chu Yulan didn't seem particularly happy when she heard Chu Chen say this, she pouted and said, "I think I'm very happy in my life now." Don't get married, don't live with other men! Even if my brother or future sister-in-law doesn't like me. I've been on my own, too! ”
Hearing his sister say this, Chu Chen sighed secretly in his heart. said softly: "Silly girl, how can my brother hate you, as long as you don't think your brother hates it, my brother's family will always leave you a room, and your sister-in-law will definitely not hate you." ”
"Really?" Chu Yulan asked with surprise on her face.
"How could my brother lie to you about this?" Chu Chen said with an affirmative face.
"Thank you, brother!" After receiving an affirmative answer, Chu Yulan couldn't help cheering, and then talked about a happy life in the future with a longing on her face.
Seeing this situation, Chu Chen couldn't help but smile, fortunately, he and Wu Ke had discussed his sister's matter before. I have also thought of this situation, Wu Ke is very reasonable about this, otherwise it would really be enough to give him a headache.
Of course, with such an understanding girlfriend, Chu Chen must repay her with loyalty and love. ……
The brother and sister had breakfast, and the others also came to the restaurant one after another, everyone chatted while eating, and when Zhang Yanbin, who finally came to the restaurant, finished breakfast, the time was already past eight o'clock.
Fortunately, the opening ceremony of the public market will not be until nine o'clock. Everyone was not in a hurry to arrive, but everyone still slandered Zhang Yanbin, a guy who had to "treat" himself every day.
After preparing the things, everyone began to set off to the venue where the public market was held.
The venue of the public market is not far from the hotel where Chu Chen and the others stayed. It was less than 20 minutes to walk, and it was still early, so everyone chose to walk there. Of course, except for Chu Chen and his party. Many out-of-town businessmen also choose to walk.
Even if Wan Jijun is a giant in the jade jewelry industry in the whole of Lingnan, his own popularity is also quite large. This made many jade merchants nod and say hello to him along the way, and some even stopped to say hello to Wan Qijun.
Maybe it was because they won the championship that day, some of the people in the middle, after greeting Wan Jijun, would also nod to Chu Chen, which made Chu Chen's heart have a dark feeling that he was also a star, and he thought it was very fun.
Because Pingzhou does not have a fixed place to hold the public market, the organizer rented a large open-air warehouse as a trading place for the public market.
When the group came to the venue, they saw that there was a long queue at the entrance, and there were several security guards standing at the door of the venue.
When it was Chu Chen's turn, everyone took out their own documents, but unlike Chu Chen's official membership card, Chu Yulan's documents were only used for temporary access, and they could not be used in the next public market.
However, even if you want to apply for these temporary documents, it is not easy, you need to have a member guarantee, and that member also needs to have a certain financial strength.
Of course, this kind of certificate must cost money, the cost is not much, only a few hundred yuan, but there are many people who use temporary certificates, and it adds up to a considerable income, which can be regarded as a means of collecting money for the organizers.
As soon as he entered the venue, the scene in front of him immediately made everyone who participated in the public market for the first time look quite shocked.
I saw that on both sides of the temporary rostrum in the middle of the venue, there were two piles of jade wool, one side was more than one and the other was less, the more pile was more than 10,000 pieces, and the less pile was estimated to be only a few hundred pieces of wool. After listening to Zhang Yanbin's introduction, Chu Chen and others knew that the pile with more wool participated in the hidden mark, and the less pile participated in the clear mark.
In addition, there are many temporary sheds around the exhibition, and the sheds are also full of wool, but now the wool is still covered with plastic film, and it will not be opened for sale until the public market opens.
This jade wool everywhere, which shocked everyone, also made Liu Sizhe and others gear up, ready to show their skills in a while, and strive to make a lot of money.
After Zhang Yanbin entered the venue, he said hello to everyone, and he had to meet with someone from his company. As soon as Zhang Yanbin walked on the front foot, more than a dozen people walked towards them on the back foot, and it turned out that these people were the managers and gambling consultants of Yihongguo and Wan Jijun.
There are a total of seven people on Wan Jijun's side, including two managers and five gambling stone consultants, while Yihongguo's side is a little less, with one manager and four gambling stone consultants, but with the addition of An Yongqing, there is only one less person on their side.
Of course, Wan Jijun is mainly engaged in the business of jadeite jewelry, and in comparison, the gambling stone consultants on his side, whether it is experience or popularity in the gambling stone world, are undoubtedly higher.
Next, Wan Jijun and Yi Hongguo introduced each other, of course, the focus of the introduction was on Chu Chen.
For Chu Chen, the new champion of "One Knife and a Thousand Golds", these people will not be snub on the grounds that Chu Chen is young, and they all politely shook hands with Chu Chen and said hello, after all, Chu Chen defeated the Jade King's most proud closed disciple.
Moreover, Chu Chen and their boss have a very close relationship, which makes their attitude towards Chu Chen even more enthusiastic.
At nine o'clock, the opening ceremony started on time, although this time it was just a temporary public market, but there were also four days, and the amount of wool was not a lot, so there should still be something. Fortunately, the leaders invited by the organizers were also interested, and they didn't bother to talk about it, and the whole opening ceremony ended in only half an hour.
When the people on the rostrum walked down, the wool merchants opened the plastic sheets on their stalls, and the whole venue immediately turned into a feast for jade merchants and gambling stone lovers.
Yi Hongguo and Wan Qijun have their own companies, and Zhang Yanbin also has company affairs to be busy, so after the opening of the public market, the three of them said goodbye to Chu Chen.
"Brother Chen, where are we going next?" Liu Sizhe asked with some excitement.
Chu Chen smiled and replied: "There is time to see the wool of the open and hidden marks, let's go to the stall first." ”
This time, the jade public inventory counted a total of four days today, which was divided into open marks, hidden marks and direct transactions on those stalls.
Participating in the hidden bid of wool, each piece of wool has a number and reserve price, the buyer in the organizer issued the bidding form to fill in the main method issued to the buyer number, name, wool number and bidding price, and put into the wool number of the standard box, this way because the buyers do not know each other other to bid for the wool and price, so it is called the dark bid.
On the day of the opening of the bid, the organizer will announce the winning bid result according to the highest bidder, for the same wool, because there are many competitors, and each other does not know the bid price of each other, the bidding price often occurs in the public auction a few yuan lower and can earn millions of cases, so the real buyer will bid for ten times or dozens of times the price of the wool reserve price.
According to incomplete statistics, about 70% of the transaction prices are higher than the reserve price, 20% of the transaction prices are 10 times higher than the reserve price, and 10% of the transaction prices are more than 20 times higher than the reserve price.
However, Pingzhou Public Market has a seemingly unreasonable rule by Chu Chen, that is, the owner of the goods can stop the bid, and there is no need to pay high liquidated damages like in Myanmar, and when picking up the goods, only a small handling fee is required. This is equivalent to returning the shipper to the advantageous position of the traditional bargaining method.
For example, someone took a fancy to a piece of wool, the market value was estimated at 6 million, and the price was quoted at 5.5 million yuan, but when the bid was called, it was found that the owner of the goods stopped the goods with a sky-high price of 20 million.
Because they are not responsible for the quotation, those wool merchants have complete control over the price, and they can sell and buy for themselves, first test it at a sky-high price, and then sell it at a slight price on the next public market.
Although it may be that a few pieces of wool have not been sold in a year, the price of rough stones remains high. In the current situation that high-quality jadeite wool is becoming more and more scarce, as long as the popularity of this priceless market continues, there are always businessmen who are eager to buy wool at a high price.
As for the open bidding, it is a live auction, and you can bid through a special bidder, and the highest bidder will win the bid within the specified time. (To be continued......)
