Chapter 368: There Are Never Too Many Good Things

A man like him should be fighting on the front line of the motherland like Feng Xiaoyun, how can he take charge of the Ministry of Import and Export?

However, the management of the import and export business department can be regarded as standing on the front line, but this is the first line of the business community.

Duan Yue took the lead in smiling at them: "The two of you are Mr. Ye Jingyuan and Mrs. Ye, right?" ”

Song Lan also smiled, "Yes, you are Mr. Duan Yue, right?" ”

Duan Yue smiled and nodded, "Yes!" Mr. Ye and Mrs. Ye, hello! ”

Ye Jingyuan, Song Lan, Duan Yue, and Liu Linsen shook hands one by one, and warmly welcomed them in.

Song Lan made tea for them, "Two, please drink tea." ”

When they took a few sips of tea and put down the teacups, Song Lan asked them with a smile, "I don't know what Minister Duan wants to talk about with us?" ”

Duan Yue looked at the young and beautiful woman in front of him, thinking of the content of the investigation materials, he must not dare to despise her in his heart.

Duan Yue replied with a smile: "I heard Xiaoyun say that Mr. Ye and Mrs. Ye's business in Hong Kong City is very big, I came here today just to ask, here in Shanghai, in addition to Suzhou embroidery and silk, is there anything else that can impress the two?" ”

Song Lan asked him with a smile, "We really like antiques and cultural relics, so I don't know if these things can be exported here in Shanghai?" ”

Duan Yue immediately replied: "Of course, our country has established a cultural relics store to sell to foreign guests to earn foreign exchange, if you need it, it is the best." ”

Song Lan smiled lightly: "I just emptied the inventory of the Su embroidery factory and the silk factory, I don't know if the things in the cultural relics store can be all covered?" ”

Hearing Song Lan's words, Duan Yue's eyes widened in shock, "Mrs. Ye, there are a lot of things in this cultural relics store in Shanghai, are you sure you want them all?" ”

Song Lan nodded very affirmatively, "Yes, as long as it's genuine, I can be sure that I want it all." ”

Duan Yue asked tentatively, "Please forgive me for taking the liberty of asking Mrs. Ye, what do you want so many antiques and relics for?" ”

Song Lan replied with a chuckle: "Antiques and cultural relics can't be eaten or worn, but they represent our Chinese culture for 5,000 years. ”

Duan Yue asked again, "Do you need so much for your private collection?" ”

Song Lan raised his eyebrows slightly, "What is Minister Duan suspecting?" If you have doubts, we can not do this business, I have no loss, I just want to help the country earn some foreign exchange. ”

Duan Yue saw Song Lan's face sink, and he hurriedly said: "No, no, no, you misunderstood, it is better to sell these cultural relics to you than to sell them to those foreigners, I am just curious, and I can't help but ask a few more words, I'm sorry, it's me who is too talkative." ”

Song Lan apologized when he saw him, and also softened his tone and said: "I think that Minister Duan should know what kind of people my husband and I are before looking for us, we want to buy these cultural relics, just want to collect the things of our motherland, reduce the possibility of these cultural relics flowing abroad, and there is no malicious intent." ”

Ye Jingyuan also asked sharply on the side: "As far as I know, some foreign companies have also bought a lot of cultural relics, and boats of cultural relics are shipped out, do you also have to check them one by one, Minister Duan?" ”

If nothing else, I don't know how many treasure ships will be dug out of the seabed to transport cultural relics in the future.

According to the statistics of foreign scholars, there are about 1 million shipwrecks in the world, with a value of tens of billions to trillions, and many of them sailed from China to various countries and then sank. (Data from Baidu)

Duan Yue was asked by Ye Jingyuan, and replied with some embarrassment: "Mr. Ye, Mrs. Ye, please stop being angry!" I'm just curious, it's really not malicious, I'm sorry! ”

Song Lan saw that Duan Yue said sorry again, so he took the opportunity to go down the steps, "Since Minister Duan thinks that this business can be done, then Minister Duan has worked hard, see how many goods there are in your cultural relics store in Shanghai?" We wanted them all. ”

Duan Yue responded directly: "Okay, I'll go back and immediately notify the cultural relics store to stock up, and I can sign the contract tomorrow, is there a problem?" ”

Song Lan smiled, "No problem." ”

Duan Yue said to Song Lan again: "There is another thing that we are very famous in Shanghai, that is, wood carving, I wonder if Mr. Ye and Mrs. Ye are interested?" ”

Song Lan's eyes lit up, "Wood carving? Yes, Minister Duan, can you take us to have a look? ”

Wood carvings are also very collectible.

The most expensive rosewood carved dragon in later generations, with a price tag of 938 million yuan, and many wood carvings worth more than 100 million yuan, all of which are top works of art with exquisite shapes and knife work and carving skills.

For these things that have collection and appreciation value, Song Lan is indeed very interested.

In addition to these wood carvings with collectible value, there are also many people who like wood carving products and are very marketable, such as: carved beds, carved tables and chairs, carved screens and so on......

As long as the craftsmanship is good, Song Lan doesn't mind placing a little more order, exporting these to the port city for sale, or doing entrepot trade, and then exporting them to other countries for sale.

If the two sides cooperate well, she can also help the country's handicrafts go to the world.

There is some force that she can come out of.

But if the cooperation is not pleasant and the effort is not thankless, she will not do it.

Duan Yue's vigilance is indeed high, which is also a habit he has developed after many years in the army.

But he is also a person who will judge the situation and quickly change his attitude towards Ye Jingyuan and Song Lan, and he is not friendly to them, and the conversation between the two sides is also pleasant.

By the time they were done talking, it was time for lunch.

Ye Jingyuan and Song Lan invited Duan Yue and Liu Linsen to stay for dinner.

Duan Yue also wanted to have a relationship with them, so he asked his assistant Liu Linsen to go back first and inform the cultural relics store and wood carving factory to get ready, while he himself stayed to accompany Ye Jingyuan and Song Lan to dinner.

At this time, when the Suzhou embroidery factory and the silk factory learned that wages would be paid soon, the workers of the two factories fell into the carnival of celebration of the factory.

When they got their backlog of wages for several months, many people were red-eyed with excitement.

The predicament of the Suzhou embroidery factory and the silk factory was finally solved.

They also got Song Lan's promise that as long as the quality of their two factories has always been so good, then she will continue to place orders for their two factories in the future, and strive to make their two factories continue to run prosperously.

The wood carving factory, which is also doing handicrafts, has also fallen into the same predicament as the Suzhou embroidery factory and the silk factory.

Their wood carving factory has more than 300 employees to support, but the factory director Li Shengnian is worried.
