Chapter 46: Gold for Gold

November 6th.

Chen Jin's jewelry store has not yet officially opened.

It is still in a state of intense preparation.

But the interior of the store has been renovated, and the overall style is luxurious and resplendent, and the warm light released by the crystal chandelier makes the ambient temperature seem to rise by two degrees.

People can't help but get excited.

Wealth.

Treasure!

This is the most intuitive feeling after entering the jewelry store.

And Guo Yan has been working here for more than half a month.

At this time, her heart has been completely settled.

Without the worries and worries she had at the beginning, now she just wants to work in this jewelry store wholeheartedly!

Full of motivation and drive.

Because she found that working in Brother Chen's jewelry store has a future.

First of all, the working environment is very good, the scale of the jewelry store is very large, after the first and second floors are renovated into a business area, the third floor is divided into half of the area as a warehouse, and the remaining 50 square meters have a kitchen, a restaurant, and a lounge...... The facilities are relatively complete, unlike her previous job, where she has to be exposed to the wind and sun every day.

Secondly, the store manager is approachable, very kind, takes very good care of her, is willing to teach her some industry experience, and intends to cultivate and cultivate her...... The relationship between superiors and colleagues is very harmonious.

Most importantly, the future of the jewelry store is bright.

Although the jewelry store has not yet opened, Guo Yan has observed and found that the store is located in a very good location, just in the most prosperous section of Jinling West Road, and the passenger flow is guaranteed.

Recently, they are preparing for the opening promotion, and the discount is very large! There is ample money to invest in.

If the jewelry store is an instant hit and develops smoothly, as an employee who joined the team earlier, the boss will definitely not treat her badly.

As long as she is active, diligent and diligent, she will make her own contribution.

Naturally, Qiu Wanting, the manager of her performance, saw it in her eyes, and when she called Chen Jin, she said a lot of good things about her and praised her.

Chen Jin nodded: "After the jewelry store officially opens, let's give Guo Yan and them a regular job, and the treatment will be raised a little, and if the store is open well in the first month, some performance commissions will be given to the sales staff." ”

"It's better to wait until a month after the opening, the profit of the store is calculated, and then consider improving the treatment of employees, it is still unclear, don't add additional costs."

"Well, Aunt Qiu, what you said makes sense."

Now Chen Jin's remaining funds are less than 3 million, and before the jewelry store does not produce benefits, he can't be extravagant, and he has to save a little money.

In terms of goods, Qiu Wanting said: The preparation may not be enough.

She said: "In a jewelry store as big as ours, just the gold jewelry placed on the counter, with a weight of 20 kilograms, the total value is at least more than 5 million, but we only prepare 15 kilograms, cheap silver jewelry is more, platinum, diamonds and other jewelry are purchased less than 500,000, all the money is spent, the counter on the first and second floors can barely be filled, but there is no stock in the warehouse, and it cannot be replenished." ”

"If there is a large number of customers on the opening day and the sales exceed expectations, we are likely to encounter the embarrassment of not being able to replenish the stock."

She suggested: "Boss, I suggest that the business area be reduced, only the first floor of the store should be opened, the jewelry on the second floor should be used as a warehouse for stocking, and the density of counters on the first floor could be larger, so that it should be able to cope with the booming business." ”

"No!"

Chen Jin shook his head and said: "If you want to open it, you have to open it bigger, the first and second floors will be open at the same time, and another five million goods will be added!" ”

"Five million?"

Qiu Wanting was taken aback and asked, "Boss, you still have so much money." ”

"No, I have a batch of gold handed over to me by a friend, worth more than five million, can I put this gold in the store and sell it directly."

"Boss, what is the main form of that batch of gold in your hand? Gold bars, gold bricks, or gold jewelry? ”

"BRICS, mainly BRICS."

"Is there a production certificate?" The purpose of the production certificate is to indicate the origin and manufacturer of the gold.

"Uh...... It doesn't seem to be. ”

"Do you have a certificate of purchase?" A certificate of purchase is used to indicate the source of the gold and the institution that purchased it.

"Nope." Chen Jin's voice lowered.

"What about the appraisal report? Is there any of this? "The purpose of the appraisal report is to indicate the specific composition and gold content of gold.

"This ...... It doesn't seem to be. Chen Jin's voice was like a mosquito, and he suddenly found that his thinking was a little simple.

"Oh~ I see."

Qiu Wanting seemed to be very experienced: "The gold that your friend handed you should belong to the 'three no gold'." ”

"Well, so to speak, can this kind of gold be sold in the store?" Chen Jin is still not too desperate, there is more than a ton of gold in his hand!

"Yes."

Qiu Wanting unexpectedly gave a positive reply: "You can take it to the store to sell, as long as there is no problem with the gold, but because it is three no gold, no certificate, customers will have doubts, once there is a problem with gold, customers go to the consumer association to report complaints, it will bring a big problem, and our store is so big, the industrial and commercial department will sample several times a year, if we are found to sell three no gold, found that the gold is adulterated, we will face rectification and fines...... Boss, I don't recommend selling three no gold. ”

In fact, most of the miscellaneous gold shops opened in small towns and towns sell three no-no gold, not to mention the depth of the water, and even serious adulteration and rampant fakes, but due to lax law enforcement, they have survived well.

However, in an international metropolis like Shanghai, law enforcement must be strict, and it is theoretically not allowed to sell three without gold...... Even if the gold you sell is 100% pure gold.

"So what to do?"

Chen Jin suddenly withered, like a frosted eggplant, more than a ton of gold in his hand, can he only smash it in his hand?

"Don't worry, boss, the gold your friend gave you can be exchanged for gold."

"Gold for gold?" Chen Jin was confused.

"It's to take the gold in your hand, take it to a regular jewelry factory, and exchange it for gold jewelry with a certificate...... Qiu Wanting began to explain eloquently.

Indeed, in the consumer-facing link, the sale of three no-gold is tantamount to allowing consumers to bear the risk of buying counterfeit goods, in order to protect the interests of consumers, government agencies will definitely strengthen supervision to prevent counterfeit goods from flooding the market.

However, the production link of the jewelry factory, because it is not directly oriented to consumers, so the supervision is more relaxed, as long as there is no problem with the products leaving the factory, the specific production process, the government departments will not interfere too much.

For example, people know that spicy noodles are delicious, but does anyone pay attention to their production process?

How many customers will come into the back kitchen to observe the delicious dishes served by the restaurant?

In the same way, jewelry factories supply gold and silver jewelry with production certificates to jewelry stores, but jewelry factories also need gold, silver and other raw materials for production, and the raw materials are from complex sources, such as formal mining groups, informal gold panning factories, and gold recovered from the market.

Among them, the gold recovered by the market occupies a considerable share.

"Many gold shops and jewelry stores provide gold recycling services, and most of the private gold collected has lost its certificate and become three-free gold. Gold shops and jewelry stores will sell the gold they collect to jewelry factories...... It constitutes a sell-recycle-reproduction cycle. ”

"So even if the gold your friend gives you is three no gold, as long as it is real gold, you can exchange it for money and gold jewelry when you get it to the jewelry factory, and it is very easy to deal with it."

"Of course, the recycling price of gold without a certificate will be slightly lower, and the 'fire consumption' of exchanging it for gold jewelry will be higher, but it is generally about the same, about 5%."

As a senior practitioner, Qiu Wanting has many channels for gold for gold.

Chen Jin's eyes lit up.

Got it!

A solution to the gold has been found!

Take the gold in your hand, go to the jewelry factory to exchange gold for gold, and process the gold from unknown sources into gold jewelry with a compliant certificate and a higher price in the jewelry store.

In this way, there is no problem with his jewelry store, and it can be opened with great fanfare...... Welcome a large number of consumers to buy in the store.

Even the price of gold, silver and jewelry can be set at a lower price, so that the business of running volume can occupy a strong competitiveness in price...... Chen Jin can still make a lot of money.

"Let's go! Aunt Qiu, take me to the jewelry factory you are familiar with, find a few acquaintances you can trust, and I will exchange gold for gold! ”

And so the next three days.

Through Qiu Wanting's guidance, they drove to more than a dozen jewelry factories, and Chen Jin took out 100 kilograms of gold and exchanged 90 kilograms of gold jewelry to come back.

The problem of stock shortage in jewelry stores has been solved!
