Chapter 202 Buying Beads
Pan Daining opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Sun Chen.
"If you really want to thank me, how about selling me these pearls cheaply? First of all, it can't be the price after their bidding! ”
Pan Daining smiled a little, "You don't want to give you away for nothing, why are you taking advantage of me openly at this time?" ”
"That's different, if you sent it, if you are unhappy, you will say, I gave you something in the first place! At that time, did you say that I would return it to you with Changzhiqi, or would I return it to you? I can't bear to buy such a good thing~ But it's different to spend money to buy it, the thing is my own, although I gave you face to buy it for me at a lower price, but I bargained for it with my own ability, where would I feel embarrassed? You say that's the truth, Brother Pan? ”
Sun Chen's gag made Pan Daining cry and laugh, but he also knew that the other party had made up his mind and would not accept these pearls in vain.
I could only take out a piece of paper and slap it in front of Sun Chen, "Na! Pay me at this price, a total of 132 pieces! ”
Sun Chen took the paper and looked at it, this is a list of pearl farming costs that Pan Daining has calculated. Including the labor of each cultivated pearl oyster shallow pit, infrastructure investment, as well as the rent over the years, land occupation costs, etc., etc., etc., the last line is written the total and the number of pearls produced.
Sun Chen roughly calculated in his heart that the average cost of each pearl was about twelve or three taels of silver.
He took out his purse, counted out three thousand taels of silver tickets, and handed them to Pan Daining: "Na, is there more, these pearls are all mine!" ”
Pan Daining didn't count, took the silver ticket and put it away, "Don't worry, I will never find you back again!" ”
Sun Chen was grateful in his heart, he naturally knew that he had a great light this time, but he has always been free and easy, others are good to him, and he can just return with the same kindness, there is no need to hold a shelf and not accept it.
"By the way, Brother Pan, I came here this time to discuss something with you."
Originally, Sun Chen wanted to set up a small bead field here in Pearl Bay to see if the experiment of planting beads could be done, but Pan Dining directly gave him a ready-made success story.
Although this can be said to be a big surprise, it has also invisibly become an obstacle for him to develop new business. Because his pearl field has such a reversal and unexpected ending, the value of all pearl fields in Pearl Bay has risen with the tide. If something like Pan Daining happens again, won't it be a big luck?
Sun Chen's original plan was to buy a pearl field here, but he found that he seemed to be a step too late, and what he had just heard from everyone seemed to be that all the pearl fields in Pearl Bay were either transferred by others at a high price, or they were grabbed by the owner. Even the defective beads that can't be used as jewelry have risen in price by 20%!
Sun Chen could only settle for the next best thing, wanting to find a suitable place outside Pearl Bay and buy it to build a pearl field. But he didn't have a single talent in this area, and he didn't know much about this completely unfamiliar industry, so he planned to listen to his advice, and if possible, borrow a few people from him by the way.
"I won't use your bead technique in vain, I will definitely pay you accordingly. If it doesn't work, just give me a few skilled pearl divers. Looking at Pan Daining's frowning and silent, Sun Chen thought that he was unwilling to pass on the bead technique, Sun Chen said.
Pan Daining didn't expect that Sun Chen, this kid, still remembered his original intention two or three years ago, and said after a while of silence: "There is still a beach to the south of Pearl Bay, I went to see it at the beginning, and I felt that the traffic there was not as convenient as Pearl Bay, so I didn't choose there, if you really want to do it, you can go there to see." There is another one, you can take the technology of planting beads, and when your bead field is done, I will send a few people to help you. As for what money is not paid, those people can give me a little bit of lost pay during the period when they help you work. ”
Pan Daining's unexpectedly generous generosity made Sun Chen feel that he was too villain just now, so he could only thank him in a curtive manner.
The two of them agreed on a time, and Sun Chen took the second girl and went back with a box of pearls in his hand.
On the way, he met those merchants who had just been waiting outside, and Sun Chen noticed that some of them were full of ambition and harvested a lot, while some sighed and sighed empty-handed. Obviously, the results of the auction did not please everyone.
It was the staff of the bead field who led them away, and the joy that could not be concealed showed that the price this time was definitely higher than they expected.
Seeing the wooden box in Sun Chen's hand, someone quipped: "Yo, brother, do you have some face!" I bought this without participating in the bidding? What is the price, say it and listen to it! ”
"I didn't have much money, so I just gave a little bit of the same meaning." Sun Chen smiled, "The harvest is not small, right?" ”
"Hehe, it's okay, you look at what I bought, although it is only a second-class bead according to the size, but the beads are round and smooth, the color is uniform and mild, and it is the best at a glance!" The man was obviously very satisfied with the pearls he bought, but he also looked pained, "Even this price is really beautiful, a bead costs thirty-five taels of silver!" ”
Sun Chen looked into his box, the evenly sized pearls shone with a white luster, and it was indeed pleasing to the eye. It's just the size of the bead, which is slightly smaller than the one in Sun Chen's hand.
"It's really good, and it's good value for money." Sun Chen comforted.
"Indeed," the man nodded, "You don't know how fierce Lao Wei is today, for a few superb pearls, but he has made a lot of money!" ”
"Oh?" Sun Chen really had some impressions of the businessman surnamed Wei who was thinking about buying a high-grade pearl and going back to the lintel of the light gate.
"It's not just a few pearls bigger than pigeon eggs that came out of the pearl field just now, and several people want to buy them back as treasures in the town. You said that one by one you bought it back and provided it, but those few people wanted to eat it alone! The man whispered to Sun Chen and gossiped: "In the end, a few people shouted the price as if they were crazy, hundreds of taels and hundreds of taels were added, six pearls, and he spent 10,000 taels of silver!" ”
"Nima's 10,000 taels of silver are about to be able to buy my box! Take it back and put it in the store, who is willing to buy it and wear it?! ”
The man was still thinking in pieces, looking at Sun Chen as he spoke, wanting to get approval and support from him.
"Personally, don't you think the same?" Sun Chen chuckled, it is estimated that the person thought that such a large pearl in the pearl field was purely accidental, and wanted to buy it back and sit and wait for the appreciation! I don't know if he will vomit blood and suffer internal injuries after he learns that such a large pearl can also be mass-produced.
