Chapter 9 Selling Jade
After roughly discussing the future course of action, the uncle and nephew came out of the toilet one after another, otherwise it would be bad if they went out together and were misunderstood by the little sister.
In the afternoon, in order to let the second uncle fully understand the concept of time and space trading, Wang Zhi wrote a lot of novels to him, and at the same time, Wang Zhi also began to plan future arrangements.
Soon, in the evening, the family drove to a restaurant, not the one they came yesterday, it was said to be a four-star hotel, after all, to invite people to dinner, you still have to come to the formal place.
The family ordered, about twenty minutes or so, a middle-aged man surnamed Li came, Wang Zhi learned from the second uncle, this person's full name is Li Quancai, doing import and export trade, that is, pouring some clothes, liquor and other daily necessities to Russia, although not as much as the last century, but it is also a very profitable business, the second uncle and he got acquainted because he often bought fruits from the second uncle.
Today's dinner is not to talk about business, mainly because the second uncle is thanking Li Quancai, which is a family dinner, so Li Quancai also brought his family, and the second uncle immediately introduced the woman next to Li Quancai for Wang Zhi: "Wang Zhi, this is your Uncle Li's wife, call Auntie." ”
"Hello Auntie." Wang Zhi immediately called people.
At this time, a girl walked out behind Li Quancai and his wife, who looked a little older than the younger sister, sixteen or seventeen years old, and greeted the second uncle as soon as she saw it: "Uncle Wang is good." ”
"Xiao Yin is also here, you are standing behind your parents, Uncle Wang, I almost didn't see it."
"Uncle Wang, I'm looking for Wang Tong."
After saying that, the girl jumped up and down and went straight to the little sister who was sitting behind and playing with her mobile phone, and it seemed that they had a good relationship.
Then Li Quancai introduced Wang Zhi to his wife, and the group sat down according to priority, the second uncle and Li Quancai sat together, and Wang Zhi sat next to the second uncle.
When the waiter was serving cold dishes, the second uncle spoke: "Lao Li, I discussed with Wang Zhi this afternoon, I really don't feel at ease with such a valuable thing at home, I plan to sell it, you have a wide road, can you help me find a buyer." ”
At this time, before the food was served, a group of women chatted non-stop, the box was very noisy, and they didn't pay attention to the second uncle's side, so they didn't hear what the second uncle said, just thought they were talking about things, and didn't pay attention.
In the morning, Li Quancai offered to help introduce buyers, naturally there was no problem, and he agreed: "No problem, I know a big boss who likes jade very much, I will help you contact you tonight, and there will be news tomorrow." ”
"It's really troublesome Lao Li, I'll toast you." Although the hot dishes hadn't come up yet, the wine had already been laid out, and the second uncle immediately opened the wine bottle and poured himself a small glass each, and said, "I'll drink it for you as you like." Then he took a sip of the wine and dried it.
It may be that the wine is too spicy, so after drinking, he hurriedly took a few pieces of cold dishes and ate them, and at the same time whispered to Li Quancai on the side: "Lao Li, Zhao Qin (second aunt) doesn't know about this, don't tell her or sister-in-law, otherwise it will reach her ears sooner or later." ”
"Understand, understand......" Li Quancai immediately showed an expression that all men understand.
Although I don't know what Li Quancai misunderstood, as long as Zhao Qin doesn't know, because Wang Zhi and Wang Mingkai don't believe that women can keep secrets, so they agreed that no one will be told about the space-time corridor for the time being, including Wang Zhi's parents, so they can't let them know about jade and money.
The main things were discussed, and the next dinner was very harmonious, which could be described as a joy for the guests and hosts, but the second uncle was drunk and occasionally said some nonsense, which made Wang Zhi worried, for fear that he would accidentally tell the secrets of the space-time corridor, and at the same time, he was also ready to wait for the second uncle to wake up tomorrow and tell him not to drink in the future.
After the second aunt drove the family home, Wang Zhi spent the second night in the living room that night.
Because he remembered the thing that told the second uncle not to drink anymore, and even dreamed of this, Wang Zhi woke up very early the next day, and after simply washing, he waited for the others to get up, the earliest was the eldest sister, she had to go to work, so she got up at a little more than seven o'clock, followed by the second aunt, she had to make breakfast, and finally the second uncle and little sister.
After breakfast, the eldest sister went to work, the second aunt went out to buy vegetables, the younger sister played on the computer in the room, and only Wang Zhi and the second uncle were left in the living room, Wang Zhi said: "Second uncle, do you know that you kept talking nonsense after getting drunk last night, I am afraid that you will tell the matter of the space-time corridor." ”
When Wang Zhi said this, the second uncle also showed a solemn expression on his face: "I understand, I will never drink again in the future." ”
The second uncle is very simple, in fact, he is not an alcoholic himself, he just has to drink for business entertainment, and he also knows the truth of spitting out the truth after drinking, so in order not to make a mistake, he directly decided not to drink anymore.
After talking about drinking, Wang Zhi continued: "Second uncle, I think we should go back to our hometown to open a factory, it's too cold here in Bingcheng, if we open a factory here, not only will the cost be much higher, but the production capacity will be much lower than in the south." ”
It's too cold here in Bingcheng, the winter is long, the workers wear bloated cotton clothes that affect the work efficiency very much, and the machine is also easy to be frozen, it is indeed not a good place to build a factory, but the second uncle also has his concerns: "Having said that, but I have settled in Bingcheng for many years, and the relationship is here, and I am not familiar with life when I return to my hometown, and more importantly, nothing is produced in my hometown, and the machinery and materials have to be shipped all the way over, and even skilled workers are not easy to find, on the other hand, the northeast is not only a heavy industry base but also an agricultural base, Mechanics grab a lot of them, and machines, steel, and grain are also very convenient to buy. ”
The second uncle said very reasonably, Wang Zhi only considered the time of day, but did not consider the location and people, so he was immediately moved by the second uncle's words: "What the second uncle said is, I still owe it to consider, second uncle, you are in charge of this kind of thing!" ”
Next, Wang Zhi and the second uncle discussed a lot of things, until about ten o'clock, the second uncle's mobile phone rang, it was Li Quancai who called, after hanging up the phone, the second uncle said to Wang Zhi: "Li Quancai said that he had found a buyer, and he happened to be in Bingcheng, and asked us to bring the jade over now." ”
"Without further ado, let's hurry over." Wang Zhi said immediately.
So the uncle and nephew immediately rushed to the teahouse last time, or the box last time, as soon as they entered the door, they saw three people sitting in it drinking tea, one of them was naturally Li Quancai, sitting in the middle was a middle-aged man with a Chinese face, who looked very majestic, should be the so-called big boss, next to him was a meticulously dressed person with a pair of glasses, it seemed that the big boss should bring the appraisal expert.
Seeing that Wang Zhi's uncle and nephew had arrived, Li Quancai, as an intermediary, immediately began to introduce each other to the two groups of people, first of all, to introduce the big boss as a buyer to Wang Zhi's uncle and nephew who had just arrived: "Lao Wang, this is Boss Zhao, Boss Zhao likes jade very much, and as soon as he heard that you have two pieces of high-grade mutton fat jade in your hand, he rushed here non-stop." ”
After introducing the buyer, Li Quancai introduced the seller to Boss Zhao: "Boss Zhao, this is my friend Wang Mingkai, next to him is his nephew Wang Zhi, the jade was found in their hometown, it was here yesterday, Professor Hou of the University of Geosciences identified the two pieces of jade as high-grade mutton fat white jade. ”
"I can still trust Professor Hou's vision, but as a rule, I still have to look at things." Boss Zhao said slowly.
Hearing this, the second uncle immediately understood and said to Wang Zhi: "Quickly take out the jade." ”
Wang Zhi immediately took out a towel wrapped in jade from his backpack and spread it on the table.
As a jade lover, Boss Zhao is naturally also proficient in jade appreciation, the identification expert he brought has not moved, he immediately got started, after some inspection, a puzzled face, the jade looks very much like the real thing, but why is the carving on it so similar to a fake that has not had time to be old!
So he immediately set his eyes on the identification expert he brought, and the expert understood, took out a flashlight magnifying glass and other things to start identifying, and about two minutes later, the expert sighed: "Tyrannical things, such a good jade is carved with this kind of child's graffiti-like thing." ”
"You mean jade is real?" Boss Zhao immediately asked.
"Mr. Hou's appraisal results are correct, it is indeed a high-grade Hetian mutton fat white jade, but the carving is too poor, fortunately, the two pieces of jade are relatively large, and there is a lot of room for heavy processing." Experts say.
To determine the authenticity of the jade, Boss Zhao immediately planned to buy it, and said to the second uncle: "Mr. Wang, I like this piece of jade very much, I don't know how much it costs?" ”
"Seven million." The second uncle said.
Hou Peiyun's estimate for the two pieces of jade is five million, but it should be the reserve price, no one will directly burst the reserve price when doing business, and now the lion opens his mouth, and there is room for bargaining for a while.
Although the second uncle was ready to bargain, this Boss Zhao was worthy of being a real tyrant, so he agreed directly: "Okay, deal." ”
"Do you receive a check or go to a nearby bank to transfer money?" Boss Zhao asked.
"Just a check." The second uncle said that with Li Quancai, an acquaintance who knows the roots, as the middleman, the second uncle is not afraid of the other party writing fake checks.
Boss Zhao immediately took out his checkbook and signed a check for seven million and handed it to the second uncle, who was the first time to receive such a large sum of money, and his arm couldn't help shaking a little.
Boss Zhao wrote a cash check, and the second uncle took a general look at it, and there was no obvious suspicion, so he put it away and said, "Boss Zhao, Lao Li, I still have something at home, go back first." ”
Boss Zhao and Li Quan knew that the second uncle was in a hurry to cash the check, and expressed understanding: "You go!" ”
"Then we'll go first."
The second uncle immediately drove with Wang Zhi to the invoice bank of the check, and successfully transferred the seven million to his own account, only to breathe a sigh of relief, only the money on the bank card is real money, as for the check, it is a piece of paper.
A large sum of money was recorded at once, Wang Zhi and the second uncle were so happy that they didn't go home that afternoon, and the second uncle proposed to take Wang Zhi to see the world.
After making a phone call to the second aunt and saying that she would not go home for dinner at noon, the second uncle took Wang Zhi to a spa club.
