"Walking with the golden years, accompanying the life of Jinhua" This is a couplet at the door of an ordinary gold store in Shangcheng District. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since today is Monday, the gold store has just opened early in the morning, and the two properly dressed salesmen inside are cleaning at the moment.
In the past, it was impossible for a guest to come to the door at this time, but today unexpectedly, a young man with a black travel bag hesitated to walk into this gold store.
"Welcome!" A beautiful teller who was wiping the glass of the counter was the first to notice the young man walking in, and was stunned at first, but immediately showed a charming professional smile and bowed down to greet the young man.
"Oh oh, I... I... I'm not here to buy something. The young man seemed to be very nervous, and when he heard the greeting of the beautiful teller, he actually looked around first, and then stammered.
Seeing the young man's nervous appearance, several gold bank employees who were cleaning up immediately became vigilant.
Especially when the young man reached into his black backpack, a female white-collar worker who looked like a manager even reached for the alarm switch under the counter.
"Sir, don't be nervous, is there anything you need me to serve?" The teller standing in front of the young man, although she was also very nervous in her heart, her good professionalism still made her hold back and said politely to the young man.
"Oh oh, thanks... Thank you, I'm here to sell gold, I wonder if you have collected it here? Perhaps it was the sweet smile of the beautiful teller that relieved the young man's nervousness, and after listening to the words of the perfect female teller, the young man quickly stated his purpose.
"Huh" heard the young man's words, including the manager who almost pressed the alarm button, all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
"Hello, sir, our gold bank does have a business of recycling gold, may I ask whether the gentleman sells gold jewelry or hidden gold." The relieved beautiful teller asked politely.
"Oh, this sister, what I sell is not the gold jewelry you said, do you accept gold bars?" Listening to the question of the perfect female teller, the young man asked weakly.
"Oh... Could you please show me the gold you want to sell? Hearing that the young man in front of him was actually going to sell "gold bars", the beautiful teller who was a little incredulous immediately reminded.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'll show you." It's true that I didn't even show the goods to the other party, how could the other party know if what I sold met the requirements.
The young man quickly reached out with his hand that had been in his backpack and put a rectangular object with 2 fingers square directly on the counter.
"Ahh When the beautiful teller saw the items on the counter clearly, she also covered her cherry lips in surprise when she dealt with gold all day.
"How... What do you think? Do you not accept it here? Seeing the appearance of the beautiful teller, the young man asked nervously.
"No...... No, I'm sorry, sir, you have surprised me so much, your gold bar weighs half a pound! Manager, come over here. Hearing the young man's question, the beautiful teller reacted and quickly apologized while greeting the manager.
The manager who almost called the police just now heard the greeting of the beautiful teller, and quickly put down the work in his hand and walked over quickly.
When the 30-year-old manager of the gold bank saw the half-pound "gold bar", he was also very surprised, but after all, he was the manager, so he immediately calmly asked the young man:
"Sir, may I take the liberty of asking you where this gold comes from?"
"It's... Does this require any proof? Then I didn't...... But I can assure you that the path of this gold is absolutely clean. ”
Hearing the manager's question, the young man, who had been slightly relaxed, became a little nervous again, and was even ready to take back the piece of gold.
"Sir, please don't get me wrong, this is also a routine business, but don't worry, as long as you can ensure that the origin of this gold is clean, our gold bank will definitely keep it secret for you!" Seeing that he had almost scared the young man away because of his questioning, the manager quickly explained.
How could this manager let such a business slip away? In fact, as long as there is a profit, as long as gold is re-smelted, who can tell where it comes from!
"Oh, that's good! I don't know how you collect it here? After listening to the manager's explanation, the young man put down the gold in his hand again.
"Sir, it depends on how pure this piece of gold you have?" Although the purity of this red yellow "gold bar" must be very high in the manager's experience, she still said cautiously.
"Well, I see, what if it's 99.99%!" The young man said confidently.
"Ah, if the purity of this gold bar in your hand is more than 99.9%, it is the so-called 10,000 pure gold, and the market price is now 287 yuan per gram, of course, as a recycling, we can't pay that high price, but at least it won't be less than 260 yuan."
When I heard the young man confidently say that the purity of the gold in his hand was 99.99%, the manager's eyes lit up, and he immediately quoted the purchase price.
Hearing the purchase price quoted by the manager, the young man was also overjoyed, which was much higher than he estimated, so he immediately pushed the piece of gold in front of the manager: "Okay, then I will sell it to you." ”
"Ugh!" I didn't expect the young man in front of him to be so simple, and the manager couldn't think of it for a while, so he forgot to pick up the piece of gold.
"Huh? Still have questions? Seeing the manager's expression, the young man asked nervously again.
At this time, the manager was pulled by the beautiful teller standing beside him, and finally came back to his senses, and hurriedly said to the young man: "No problem, no problem, but I have to bother Mr. Wait a minute, we have to do an appraisal of this piece of gold, don't you mind?" You can rest assured that we have professional identification equipment at the counter. ”
"Oh! Don't mind, don't mind. The young man hurriedly handed the gold bar in his hand to the manager.
Under the professional instrumentation, the gold was identified very quickly, and several laser rays swept over the surface of the gold, and the chromatograph immediately analyzed the purity of the gold to meet the highest standards of any known gold content.
When he saw the results of the instrument, the manager was so happy that he almost couldn't close his mouth, and immediately beckoned the young man into the back office.
"Hello sir, please drink tea, I don't know your surname?" After arriving at the office, the manager immediately enthusiastically made a cup of tea for the young man, and then asked politely.
"Thank you, manager, you're polite, my name is Wang Donghua."
That's right! This young man who sold gold was Wang Donghua, who was expelled from Jiangcheng Middle School.
When Wang Donghua left Jiangcheng Middle School, the first thing that came to mind was the economic problem.
According to his own plan, he first had to go back to his hometown first, this kind of thing could never be hidden from his parents, so in order to comfort his parents, he must also solve the economic problem first, so he first came to the gold bank to sell gold.
"Hello, Mr. Wang, since the purity of the gold you sell is quite high, I buy it at a price of 270 yuan per gram on behalf of the gold bank, what do you think?" The manager said very sincerely.
"Ahh Thank you! Absolutely! Wang Donghua was moved by the price quoted by the manager again, and it seemed that he had come to the right place, which was a gold bank that operated in good faith.
"That's good, Mr. Wang, do you want cash or transfer?" Seeing Wang Donghua's expression, the manager didn't say anything, and asked directly.
"Wait, manager, I still have some gold, I don't know if you can buy it together!" finally met a buyer who did not "deceive customers", how could Wang Donghua let it go.
"Oh, you mean... You still have this purity ......," the manager asked in disbelief.
"Hmm!" Now that the decision has been made, Wang Donghua did not hesitate, directly opened the backpack and poured the remaining gold on the table.
When the dull sound of gold colliding came into the manager's ears, looking at the yellow "gold bars", the manager's expression at the moment could be said to be very rich.
"Mr. Wang, you... Are you sure you will take all this gold ... Sell us the gold bank? The manager was so shocked that he even stuttered a little.
"Yes, there are three more pieces here, a total of one kilogram of gold, you should be able to eat it!"
"One kilogram, yes, why can't?"
Although the manager was surprised that Wang Donghua actually had so much gold, the most taboo thing in the face of such a seller in their line of work was to get to the bottom of it, so the manager kept silent.
Soon the manager re-identified the remaining "gold bars", and when he found that the purity was exactly the same as the first piece of gold, he immediately happily transferred 200,000 yuan of "payment" into Wang Donghua's account according to Wang Donghua's wishes, and then took out 70,000 yuan in cash from the safe and put it in front of Wang Donghua.
