Chapter Ninety-Four: Yiwu Merchants
"Is it only Lu Xiang's share?" Yan Yixin leaned into her ear and asked.
"Uh...... Chen Xiaorong is also a friend, but she doesn't look down on low-grade gems like crystals, and people have diamonds! Last time, I also brought a diamond pendant to the school to show off, which was 60 points. Yan Juan didn't realize it for a while, and subconsciously felt that Chen Xiaorong didn't necessarily understand her affection.
"Except for them?"
Yan Juan thought for a moment: "I don't seem to be good at 'making' friends, so I can't talk about any other very good friends." ”
Yan Yi pinched her fingers dissatisfiedly: "What about me?" ”
"Huh?" Yan Xuan's eyes widened, "You? But you're a man! ”
"Can't a man own a gem? You don't see, a large part of the current rings are rings. ”
"But...... "what kind of gem do you want," Yan Wanne, "there is no ...... The price of these colored 'colored' gemstones is not high, you ...... Do you want it too? ”
"As long as it's from you, I'll like it." Yan Yixin said with a smile.
"But ......," Yan Juan couldn't laugh or cry a little, "can I also send you an eggplant pendant?" ”
"You can design a men's ring, with emeralds, simple and generous."
"Emerald!" Yan Wan had a bitter face, "You can't sell me for a piece of emerald, you really know how to speak!" ”
"Don't worry, the emeralds are provided by me, and you only need to be responsible for the design."
"That's not what I gave you, did I?" Yan Wan looked at him suspiciously, obviously feeling that he had some kind of 'yin' conspiracy.
"Of course, your wisdom and my materials, the perfect combination of the two, is our own ring."
"We?"
"Of course, yes. Do you want me to give one of these 'female' rings to someone else? The ring is provided by the man, which seems to be the usual rule, right? ”
Yan Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and he was embarrassed to ask about the use of the ring. A slight tap of the head indicates agreement. My ears were already hot.
Is it an engagement ring?
She glanced stealthily, but only met his gaze. The hot and spicy feeling, like the rhythm of a samba, rings in the depths of the heart one after another.
"Do you want it?" This boss actually speaks fluent English.
Yan Juan realized that he had held the crystal in the palm of his hand. She nodded hurriedly, skipped Yan Yixin's "translation", and said happily: "Of course, how much can I sell?" ”
"Such a big piece, five hundred reais!"
Yan Juan didn't have time to bargain, and English with a strong Chinese accent already sounded behind him: "I want natural crystals." ”
The shopkeeper seemed to be very familiar with him, and immediately threw off Yan Juan enthusiastically and turned into the store. Take out a rattan box, which is filled with crystals of different colors.
"This man is so big, and he looks like a Chinese." Yan Juan whispered.
"Originally, it should be a businessman from Zhejiang."
Although their voices are not loud, Mandarin is undoubtedly very abrupt on such an occasion. The man turned his face to be unexpectedly young.
"You're also tourists from China? I am from Yiwu, Zhejiang, and every year I come to Brazil to purchase some low-grade gemstones such as crystals, which are very good in the domestic market. ”
"Yiwu? Isn't that the largest small commodity market in China? Yan Juan blurted out.
"Yes, our Yiwu things are all strange. However, high-end things do not sell well, but gemstones such as crystal have a large market. Look, like this rose crystal, the young 'girl' children are very fond of it now. ”
Yan Juan nodded: "Although the transparency is not high, the color is very delicate, which is suitable for young 'girl' children." "You're also a young 'girl'. It's better to pick two pieces and go back. The other party smiled, obviously having a familiar business style.
"I still like purple." Yan Juan smiled embarrassedly.
"Purple is fine. Regardless of the color, the quality of Brazilian products is very good. ”
Gem City also sells processed ready-made jewelry, but Yan Juan noticed that almost all of the stones he bought were rough stones, or rough stones, and his heart moved: "Do you have your own crystal processing factory?" ”
"Yes, it's also a small workshop, and a few people make do with it. Although the process cannot be compared with large merchants, it is cheaper. In our Yiwu, you can even buy Brazilian crystals that are cheaper than here, of course, a bit in short supply. ”
When it comes to business, the other party's eyebrows fly 'lust' and dance, looking full of ambition. Yan Juan smiled and nodded, listening to his bargaining with the boss, and just as he calculated his counteroffer in his heart, he heard the young Yiwu merchant say: "This crystal is a gift, don't ask the young lady to collect the money." She and I are in the same motherland, and it is also fate to meet. ”
The boss actually nodded very indifferently: "Okay, even if it's a gift." ”
Yan Juan hurriedly shook his head: "Then how can you be embarrassed?" We meet in Pingshui, and this crystal will be a little cheaper according to your price. ”
"It's okay, anyway, if you don't send it for nothing, you won't send it." He blinked, reached out and 'touched' a business card from his briefcase, "My name is Zhang Taiwei, you can find me when you come to Zhejiang to play in the future." ”
Yan Juan was a little cramped, took the business card with one hand, and felt that his attitude was a little contemptuous, so he hurriedly put down the amethyst, and also held the other corner of the business card in the other hand: "Thank you." My name is Yan Juan, you call me Xiao Yan, in the company, my colleagues call me that. ”
Yan Yixin frowned slightly, always feeling that this person named Zhang Taiwei had an unusually enthusiastic attitude towards Yan Xuan. Yan Xuan's answer made him breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Yan Juan just treated him as a more distant menstrual affair, so his smile also softened.
"My surname is Yan."
Zhang Taiwei's eyes rolled: "This surname is rare." ”
"Maybe it's a regional difference, we have a lot of people with the surname Yan there."
"It is also said that our Chinese surnames have obvious regional characteristics. Are you two here for your honeymoon? Brazil is indeed a good choice, Brasilia, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo are all worth visiting. ”
Yan Juan's face turned red, but Yan Yixin's face remained the same: "Almost." We'll visit here first, maybe to the northern cities. ”
"You probably like the local handicrafts in Brazil, there are a lot of them in Manaus, and it's close to the Amazon. The local aborigines are also dressed in a special 'color', and it is worth visiting the city. Zhang Taiwei enthusiastically introduced that his crystal had been neatly bandaged, and then he said "sorry" and wrote a traveler's check. It seems that he is also a regular visitor to Brazil.
"Well, we might consider going there." Yan Yixin smiled and nodded, "Has Mr. Zhang's goods been completed?" ”
"Yes, I booked a two-way ticket for tonight's flight. Otherwise, I can be your guide, alas. ”
Yan Wanwaner: "That's not necessary, I'm ...... He's also a Pasir pass! ”
"That's right, my guide, for you, it's a kilowatt electric light!"
Zhang Taiwei said with a smile. How did you get here? I have a car to get you back to Brasilia. ”
"We rented a car." Yan Yixin lightly rejected his kindness.
"Oh." Zhang Taiqi was not disappointed, still smiling, making Yan Juan wonder if he would have facial nerve paralysis, "Then you can continue shopping, I'll go back first." ”
Yan Juan hurriedly thanked him again, Zhang Taiwei waved his hand, and carried a basket of crystals onto his shoulder. It doesn't look strong, but the weight of the crystal is definitely not light. His feet slipped a little, but after a moment he was able to stand up straight again, and staggered away.
"Isn't he the boss? Why do you take these goods yourself? Yan Wan asked puzzled.
"Zhejiang people are willing to endure hardships, and most of the enterprises are family-owned." Yan Yixin explained, "Maybe he didn't bring someone over, and he could only do these menial jobs himself." ”
Yan Juan nodded, and his eyes fell on the crystal in his palm: "Today I got a big bargain, and I was actually given a crystal for no reason." But we don't know each other clearly, this Zhang Taiwei. It's kind of interesting. ”
"Businessmen pay attention to harmony and make money, anyway, whether this crystal is given or not, it has no impact on his cost. Compared with that big list, this crystal is not worth mentioning, so I made a favor for you. ”
"That's going to be the right time!" Yan Juan carefully wrapped the crystal in a paper bag, a little uneasy, "But for no reason, I always feel a little weak." Why don't we return to China and send him the money at the price here? ”
"Okay, 'hand' it over to me." Yan Yixin happily took over this task, and he was unwilling to let Yan Juan and Zhang Taiqi get into a relationship, who knows what kind of heart that kid has!
Nothing to be courteous, either 'rape' or theft...... Although there are no signs of ill-intentioned intentions yet, Yan Yixin is happy to strangle this kind of signs in the cradle first.
Fortunately, he regarded them as newlyweds on his honeymoon, and this misunderstanding was very much in line with his heart.
"I'll settle it with you when I go back, anyway, you will pay for all the expenses here." Yan Juan nodded in agreement, and said to herself strangely, "Why do I think he looks very kind?" ”
"He is a businessman, of course he will make others feel very kind, and then he can do business" Yan Yixin disagreed, "Do you want to see spinel?" The quality of Brazilian spinel is also very pleasantly surprised. "The spinels that the shopkeeper discharges in turn range from red, purple, and orange in the warm 'color' to blue and green in the cool 'color' system...... The whole nine yards.
"Spinel has a hardness of eight on the Mohs scale and, like topaz, is suitable for everyday wear because it is not easy to wear and tear." Yan Yixin did not forget to introduce her, "The best is crimson, and purple and orange red are also good." The closer you are to the ruby color, the more valuable it is, and if it is like the red spinel produced in Myanmar that is close to pigeon's blood red, it is a treasure among spinels. ”
Yan Juan nodded his head: "And the clarity is also very good, and it can be cut in a faceted shape, reflecting the delicate 'bright' and 'color' of spinel." ”
Yan Yixin was angry and funny: "You really don't leave the bank in three sentences, you are dedicated enough!" ”
Yan Juan was about to refute, but Yan Yixin had already taken out his mobile phone that kept shouting: "What? It's true? ”
