Chapter 116: Once Upon a Time in Putian (2)
Putian, a small city in Fujian, was known as Xinghua in ancient times, also known as Puyang.
Speaking of the city, I heard about it as early as when I graduated.
The Putian system, which was famous in the domestic medical industry, was born from here, and its spread was wide and widespread, and the influence has not faded for more than ten years.
Here, I won't introduce much, interested friends can search on Baidu or Zhihu.
Get back to business.
That day, after I met Lao Zhu, I first went to the hotel and put down my luggage.
Then, the two didn't say much, and went directly to the largest jade market in Putian: Arts and Crafts City.
Jade, also known as jadeite, has a long history in Putian. As early as the Qing Dynasty, the jade-making process here was second to none in China. It is no exaggeration to say that at that time, Putian wanted to say second, and no one dared to be first!
When I entered the Art City, the first feeling I had was that there were a lot of people.
The exhibition will be held in a venue in the easternmost part of the Art City. As soon as I entered the door, a tree carving more than ten meters high was born, which was breathtaking.
The venue is huge, unimaginably large.
Porcelain painting is not one of them. In fact, the theme of this exhibition is called the Chinese Folk Collection Exchange Conference, and there are countless works of natural traditional crafts.
For example, root carving, and jade, anyway, it is dazzling to see.
And Lao Zhu's booth was booked a month ago. Therefore, the location is excellent, facing the center of the door, but anyone who comes in will inevitably take a few glances.
On the other hand, the reason why Lao Zhu came a day later than me is not without reason.
Those porcelain paintings and porcelain vases had to be transported to Putian through the logistics of the organizing committee, so before and after, Lao Zhu was busy for most of the day, and it was delayed.
To tell the truth, Lao Zhu's porcelain paintings, I have seen them for the first time.
Frankly speaking, it is indeed very interesting, and the lines outlined on the porcelain vase are extremely exquisite.
"Peng, how's it going? Isn't it quite tasteful? Lao Zhu was complacent.
I smiled and agreed.
"Don't say it, these painters that Junzi found are really good. Although I don't understand this business, I can feel that just this painting skill, without three or five years of precipitation, don't even think about it. ”
When Lao Zhu heard this, he was immediately surprised and couldn't close his mouth.
"Yo, I can't see it, I can't imagine that Ah Peng is still an expert, tsk, you can!"
Seeing this, I hurriedly stopped.
"Pull it down, at my level of appreciation, I don't shiver anymore. Well, someone's coming. ”
As he spoke, a few foreigners came over.
Judging from the physiognomy, these brothers should be from Africa, and they look so black, I estimate that they have a fight with the bottom of the pot in our hometown.
Seeing that the deal came, Lao Zhu immediately became a grandson.
"Harrow, welcome, welcome."
When I heard this, my eyebrows furrowed.
The more this kid looks at it, the more he looks like a fake foreign devil, and it's still Haro Harrow. Just this Chinese English pronunciation, thanks to the fact that the university foreign language teacher was not there, otherwise he would have lost all his face.
However, what surprised me was that these foreign buddies were fluent in Chinese as soon as they spoke.
"Dude, this thing is good, how do you sell it?"
Yo, it's still a standard Beijing accent, which immediately impressed me.
Not to mention that the world is changing too fast, and foreigners who dare to love have also kept pace with the times and learned Chinese.
So a few people chatted, not to mention, just these foreigners, they are really from Africa.
However, people have been in China for a few years, and although they cannot be said to be Chinese experts, many habits have been imperceptibly formed.
The most prominent point is bargaining.
As far as the ability of the aunt in the vegetable market to bargain, I think these people have learned a bit. opened his mouth, and was stunned to quote Lao Zhu and cut it in half.
Don't look at Lao Zhu's appearance, in fact, this grandson is very ghostly.
At this time, he also saw the thoughts of these black brothers. They definitely like things, but at this price, it may take a bit of a fuss.
On the way here, Lao Zhu probably told me about the Tao in this porcelain painting.
In Lao Zhu's words, the so-called offer is all false. The cost of something like this is almost negligible, and the key lies in the painting skill and the quality of the porcelain.
If I remember correctly, the porcelain vase that foreigners fancy is the reserve price of Lao Zhu Kai, 200,000.
As for how much I can earn, I think I have to make 1000% profits.
It's ridiculous that foreigners only know the skills of bargaining, and the essence of our Chinese profiteers will never be learned. Especially like porcelain, such traditional culture, foreigners still know a little about it.
Who is Lao Zhu? That's notoriously articulate.
With his eloquence, I don't think there are many in the world. If you have an impression, you will also blow out the big gold tooth in the lamp, and he will be half a catty against eight taels.
Saying that, the foreigner made the grandson stunned. I can't help but secretly laugh, this time it seems that Lao Zhu is going to be!
Sure enough, in the end, this porcelain painting was sold, no more, no less, exactly 80,000.
Lao Zhu's original words are the profound friendship between the two peoples. At the time of our grandfathers, Africa was the third world, and it had a very strong relationship with us.
Even if we reform and open up now, we must not forget our roots. African brothers, you have to treat them differently, what is half price and not half price, directly four folds, and two more cups.
Looking at the stupid appearance of the foreigner picking up the treasure, if it weren't for the fact that there were many people next to me, I would almost laugh.
For Lao Zhu, he was immediately impressed. This grandson is too treacherous, and he has made a lot of money by co-authoring, and he is grateful for his kindness, like a spring breeze. To tell you the truth, I don't have this ability.
At the end of the day, Lao Zhu's business was good, and he sold three or four porcelain paintings, which is not an exaggeration.
When the stall was closed at night, Lao Zhu looked at me and danced with his eyebrows.
"Peng, how's it going? Brother, I didn't lie to you, I sold 200,000 yuan a day, let's go, let's drink. ”
I smiled, "You kid is a pit cleaner, I can figure it out." What is no business and no treachery, if you want me to say, this word is tailor-made for you. ”
But laughing and laughing, but all kind. At this time, I am also very happy for Lao Zhu, in other words, I have more confidence in cooperating with him.
At this time, the lights in the museum gradually dimmed. On the opposite side, several volunteers dressed in Red Cross clothes greeted the crowd to disperse.
The two looked left and right, chatting as they walked.
Suddenly, in the crowd, a red figure flashed.
Suddenly, I was stunned.
"Peng, what's wrong?" Lao Zhu saw that something was wrong with me, so he followed his gaze.
There, except for three or two volunteers, there was no one else.
But I know in my heart that I will never be mistaken, there is a very familiar face in the figure that passed by just now!
Although time has passed and his appearance has changed somewhat, I can almost conclude that it is him!
Zhongshan that year, MLM that year, he was a monkey!
