Chapter 11 Fakes?
Within Wanli Group, there are many people who have opinions on Zhou Peng, but if there is the biggest opinion, it is none other than Zhao Xing, the former general manager of the Qiantang branch of Wanli Company.
Although Qiantang is not as good as Shencheng, Kyoto, Guangfu and other first-line economic cities, it is also a well-known city in China.
can be more than two years ago, a milky boy Zhou Peng parachuted directly to Qiantang by virtue of Zhou Wannian's relationship, and forcibly added the word "deputy" in front of his general manager.
Zhao Xing didn't dare to settle accounts with Zhou Wannian, so everything naturally went to Zhou Peng's head, and it was precisely because of Zhao Xingming's secret non-cooperation that the performance of the Qiantang branch in the past two years was so bleak.
Even if Zhou Peng knows, he has no way to take him, Zhao Xing is much older than him in terms of qualifications, and he is also dumped ten streets in terms of performance, and he has been operating in Qiantang for half his life, and only one sentence makes some old customers and friends directly bypass Qiantang to go to Kyoto and other branches to find cooperation, and obvious mistakes can not be picked out.
This is also a big reason why Zhou Pengkong is in charge of the Qiantang branch and has no achievements.
At this time, Zhao Xingzheng was returning from running errands outside, and saw a young man standing at the front desk, listened to the last two conversations between him and the front desk, and roughly understood that this person was going to auction jewelry.
"Young man, what do you want to auction?" Zhao Xing asked casually.
The front desk lady noticed Zhao Xing at this time, and hurriedly bowed: "Mr. Zhao is good." ”
Wu Wei saw the middle-aged beer-bellied man in a suit beside him, since he was Wanli's boss, he had nothing to avoid, so he replied directly: "Hello Mr. Zhao, I want to entrust Wanli to help auction a gem." ”
"What kind of gem is it?" Zhao Xing was slightly interested.
"I guess it's a pearl or something. Wu thought for a moment.
Zhao Xing's interest went to most of the moment, no matter how good the pearl is, it can't be sold at a high price, 10mm natural ocean pearl is excellent, but it is only hundreds of thousands of death, and most of the money ponds are impossible.
Interested, he asked, "How many, how big is the diameter?"
"There is only one, about the same size as a dragon's eye, and I haven't measured the specific diameter. ”
Zhao Xing's face immediately pulled down, a pearl the size of a dragon's eye, what are you teasing me, it seems that he is a stunned young man who has got a fake.
"Okay Xiaohong, don't pay attention to this customer, he got a fake, but I don't know if he knows it himself. ”
Zhao Xing glanced up and down Wu Wei with a mixture of disdain.
The front desk called Xiaohong looked at Wu Wei apologetically: "Sir, please go back... ”
To be honest, Wu Wei didn't know the size and market of natural pearls, but it didn't prevent him from being unhappy with Zhao Xing, he didn't even identify the basic appraisal, and he insisted that he was carrying a fake without seeing the real thing, and Zhao Xing's scrutinizing eyes seemed to feel that Wu Wei wanted to cheat Wanli.
Wu Wei looked at Zhao Xing coldly.
"Wanli Auction Company, what a big shelf, I hope you don't regret it. ”
After that, Wu Wei didn't care about Zhao Xing and the front desk, and turned around directly to leave.
"Wait. A clear voice came from outside.
Wu glanced in surprise in the direction where the voice came from, it was the man in the suit who had just smoked at the door of the commercial building.
The front desk was busy saluting: "Mr. Zhou is good." ”
Zhou Peng came back after smoking, and he didn't hear the middle link, but he happened to see the scene of Wu Wei and Zhao Xing breaking up unhappily at the end.
He has a good impression of Wu Wei, and he is a potential customer, and it seems that Wu Wei has a bad opinion of the entire Wanli Auction Company when he is so engaged by Zhao Xing.
Wanli's reputation has been built up little by little over the years, and Zhou Peng has long regarded Wanli as his second home, and will never allow this kind of bullying to happen, what if this young man's background is amazing?
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if this young man has no background, and the commission is not brilliant enough, just disgusting Zhao Xing, he Zhou Peng must also keep this customer.
Zhao Xing smiled at this time, okay, if you kid takes the initiative to make a fool of himself, then you can't blame me, he deliberately put on a cold face towards Zhou Peng.
"Mr. Zhou, don't blame me for not reminding you, this customer is very likely to be a fake. ”
Zhou Peng was stunned: "Fake? Have you seen it?"
Zhao Xing shook his head: "No." ”
If you can rub it, Zhou Peng's anger will come up, and you haven't even seen it, so you can say that people fool people with fakes, and who will not be angry.
But the superficial harmony still has to be maintained.
"Mr. Zhao, whether it is a fake or not, this point depends on the company's appraiser, although you are an old qualification in the industry, but the identification of the partition is not necessarily professional. ”
Zhou Peng: Special bar, the word "spacer" bites very hard.
Zhao Xing was also caught fire by Zhou Peng, let you identify it, when the time comes, I will go to the headquarters to stab your ugly thing, and Zhou Wannian will not be able to save face.
"Leave it to yourself that week. ”
The front desk lady Xiaohong is caught in the middle, and she is in a dilemma.
Wu Wei saw a little bit on the side, and this young Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhao over there probably didn't deal with each other.
Originally, I had no idea about Wanli Auction Company, but now, even if I sell this Zhou Zong's favor.
Zhou Peng had already faced Wu Wei again, and handed over the business card with both hands.
"Contemptible Zhou Peng, is the general manager of the Qiantang Branch of Wanli Auction Company, what is this customer called?"
Wu Wei replied with a hot stamping business card: "Hello Mr. Zhou, my name is Wu Wei, since Mr. Zhou can trust me, then let's follow the process of Wanli Company." ”
Zhou Peng smiled and nodded.
"Xiaohong, take this Mr. Wu to the appraisal room, forget it, I'll take Mr. Wu over in person. ”
。。。
In the No. 1 appraisal room of Wanli Qiantang Branch, Wu Wei and Zhou Peng have already arrived and are waiting for the appraiser to come.
At this time, Zhou Peng had already asked Wu Wei about the details of the treasures that needed to be entrusted.
When he heard that it was a pearl and a dragon's eye, Zhou Peng's brows also furrowed, and he couldn't help but regret it a little in his heart, but at this time, he asked Wu Wei to go back and put his face down.
Wu Wei also came back to his senses at this time, and he saw Zhou Peng's demeanor, it seems that the pearl the size of a dragon's eye is really beyond the conventional limit.
The appraiser came in, a semi-bald man in his forties, and it was estimated that he had met Zhao Xing before coming in, so his eyes were full of impatience when he saw Wu Wei.
"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Wu, I'm Huang Wei, an appraiser, take out the consignment, I'll see if it's true or not." "Zhou Peng is here, and the appraiser doesn't dare to say anything to death.
Wu Wei didn't talk nonsense, took out a wrapped silk scarf directly from his trouser pocket, and put it on the table.
Even though the appraiser had already determined that Wu Wei had brought a fake, his professional habits still made him carefully open the silk scarf.
Inside is a lustrous and warm crystal bead, milky white and yellowish, the size is about 3 cm in diameter standard round.
"Huh. ”
Huang Wei screamed softly when he saw the beads, as an expert, although he is not a professional pearl reader, he can still distinguish between natural pearls and artificial fake pearls.
He gently picked up the pearl and put it in front of his eyes, looked at it carefully with a magnifying glass, and then took a small flashlight to shine it from all angles.
This pearl has a natural color, a near-perfect shape, and a beautiful and flawless light refraction, which is not artificially made, but this size, is it not filled with the core?
But the core pearl also has limitations, the core is too large to become a pearl at all, and it will kill the female mussel, such a big pearl, even the female mussel is also a treasure.
He measured it with a caliper, which was 32 millimeters in diameter.
As the examination deepened, his heart became more and more unsettled, if it was true, if it was true, such a big pearl was simply a treasure that could be heirlooms.
Zhou Peng, who was already hopeless, was in high spirits when he heard Huang Wei's "Huh", and then saw Wang Wei carefully observing the pearls, and the expectations in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Huang Wei put down the pearl carefully with a reluctant face.
"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Wu, I can only say that this pearl is very likely to be real, but my level can't be asserted yet, it just so happens that Qin Lao is also in the company, why don't you invite him to take a look. ”
Zhou Peng is already very troubled by the gains and losses: "Old Qin is also here, please invite him over." ”
"Yes, Qin Lao came to Qiantang for a tour, and came to see me by the way, so I will invite him. After the appraiser Huang Wei finished speaking, he hurriedly ran out of the appraisal room, and the excitement in his heart was actually even more than Zhou Peng.
Qin Lao's full name is Qin Tianming, Taishan Beidou of Huaguo Cultural Relics Appraisal and Jewelry Identification, he is 80 years old and he is the treasure of Wanli Auction Group, and Huang Wei happens to be one of Qin Tianming's three apprentices.
