"Liu Weishan? The old gentleman you are talking about is Liu Weishan? Zhang Jiefang said in surprise after hearing this.
"What, is this Liu Weishan very famous?" Yang Ming is not a person in this industry, so naturally he has never heard of it.
"Of course, Liu Weishan is a master of jade carving, and he is also a master of jade appreciation! Serves as an honorary advisor to many jewelry companies! Zhang Jiefang said: "My company invited his old man several times, but he couldn't ask for it, you know, as long as there is jade identified by his old man, it will increase in value in an instant!" ”
"That's amazing!" Yang Ming was very surprised, but he didn't expect to meet a master today: "Uncle Zhang, Liu Lao also left me a business card, so that I can ask him if I don't understand, do you say I should call him?" ”
"Of course you have to fight, Liu Lao rarely takes the initiative to give his contact information to others, and he doesn't like to be polite, he said that if you want to call him, he is naturally willing, otherwise he will not give you a business card! After hearing this, Zhang Jiefang immediately said: "Yang Ming, this is a good opportunity, if you can worship Liu Lao as a teacher, sooner or later you will become an upstart in the jewelry industry!" ”
In fact, Zhang Jiefang also has his own plans, if Yang Ming really has a relationship with Liu Weishan and Liu Lao, it will be of great benefit to his jewelry company!
"I see." Yang Ming nodded. Worship Liu Lao as a teacher, Yang Ming has no such plan for the time being, he can't rely on gambling jade to eat all his life, and now it's just an expedient measure to make money, so it doesn't matter whether he can carve or not, the important thing is to be able to pick out good materials from the rough stone. As for who will process it and what it will be processed into. Yang Ming didn't want to get involved.
Zhang Jiefang saw that Yang Ming didn't seem to have any intention in this regard, and he couldn't force it, so he just persuaded him: "You can think about it yourself." The opportunity is rare, and many people want to worship him as a teacher but can't find a way! ”
"Maybe Liu Lao just treats me as a studious young man, maybe people don't mean to accept me as an apprentice at all!" Yang Ming smiled.
"That's true, but if he takes the initiative, you'd better think about it!" Zhang Jiefang said: "Let's go, let's go out and eat something." ”
Zhang Bin didn't eat in the afternoon and was hungry for a long time, so he was very positive. Yang Ming and Lan Ling, on the other hand, were not too hungry.
"That's right, Yang Ming. How's that two of your stones? Isn't it embarrassing to throw out garbage? Zhang Bin suddenly remembered the agreement between the two.
"I haven't polished it yet...... Yang Ming was a little embarrassed, patronizing and playing some games between couples with Lan Ling, and he didn't think about the stone at all!
"Do you see that the stones I gambled on are too good, and you don't have confidence in your own two pieces of rags?" Zhang Bin boasted.
"Maybe a piece of jadeite will be opened!" Yang Ming smiled and said paradoxically.
"Emerald? That's right. What exactly does jadeite mean? Isn't it also jade? Zhang Bin couldn't figure out the difference between the two.
"Zhang Bin, the concept of jadeite and jade is easily confused, actually. Jadeite is indeed jade, but conversely, jade is not necessarily jadeite. Zhang Jiefang listened to his son's words and explained: "Jade is a collective term for natural jade, a mineral aggregate. There are many types of natural jade, which show different forms due to their different chemical composition, density, hardness, and refractive index. Therefore, natural jade is divided into jadeite and nephrite. Jadeite is jadeite, which is found in Myanmar. With its unique ingredients and excellent texture, jadeite has become the king of jade and is deeply loved by people. Nephrite is a natural jade that is less hard than jadeite. The natural jade currently produced in China is basically nephrite. The most representative is Hetian jade produced in Xinjiang, which is the best jade in China. ”
"In other words, if we bet on stones, we are likely to be able to bet on jadeite?" Zhang Bin was surprised.
"Yes. Many jewelry merchants in Guangdong and Hong Kong who got rich overnight made their fortunes by gambling on jadeite! Zhang Jiefang said: "However, in the first few years, the odds of gambling on jadeite were relatively large, and stones were cheaper at that time. A whole bunch of them didn't have much money. Later, these merchants who resold rough stones learned wisely, and the price increased several times. You buy a lot of jade, even if you open jadeite, you won't make much money. ”
"Then you still bet jade here?" Zhang Bin was a little strange.
"Hehe, gambling jade is just a hobby, it doesn't hurt to play occasionally, just like buying a lottery ticket, it may not matter if you spend hundreds of dollars a month, but if you want to buy hundreds of thousands, it's a bit inappropriate!" Zhang Jiefang said: "This time, I mainly want to take you to see and get in touch with these. ”
The situation, Zhang Bin has unconsciously understood a lot of this aspect is just an introduction! Zhang Jiefang was very happy, he felt that the trip was worthwhile, and what he was most glad about was that this trip brought Yang Ming! Because of Yang Ming's interest, Zhang Bin felt interested!
Don't underestimate this entry, as the saying goes, the master leads the way in, and the cultivation is personal. In other words, the first step is the most important, as long as you enter the door, you can completely improve on your own in the future.
If you don't even touch the doorway, how can you talk about progress?
found an authentic Northeast restaurant, and Zhang Jiefang and his party walked in. Because of the continuous eating of vegetables (Yunnan cuisine) in the past few days, Zhang Jiefang is a little hungry for hometown food, and Lan Ling is still eating Northeast cuisine for the first time, so he is more excited.
Fish-flavored shredded pork, pot-wrapped meat, spicy tofu, and ground three fresh served with rice. This is the royal way for Northeast people to eat. Northeasterners are not as willing to eat pasta as southerners, and rice is indispensable to almost every meal. In fact, it may not be that southerners are unwilling to eat rice, but the rice in the south is too unpalatable, and the Wuchang rice in the northeast is the best in rice.
Zhang Jiefang ordered a few more smoked sauces with Northeast characteristics, and several people let go of their bellies and ate them. Lan Ling, on the other hand, couldn't eat too much, and after eating a few bites of each of the dishes, he was full.
"How many bosses are from the Northeast?" The restaurant owner had nothing to do, sitting at the table on the side and talking to Yang Ming and them.
"Yes, I didn't expect to be able to eat such authentic Northeast food here!" Zhang Jiefang exclaimed.
"Of course, I'm a pure Northeast man, I'm from Harbin, my lover is in charge, it's from Jilin, and the craftsmanship is absolutely authentic!" The restaurant owner boasted.
"Hehe, we are still fellow villagers, we are from Songjiang, the three eastern provinces, the three eastern provinces, that is to say, our three northeastern provinces are all a family!" Zhang Jiefang is a businessman, with a relatively bold personality, and can talk to anyone.
"Yes, there are many guests who come here to eat, but there are not many people from the Northeast, and many of the people who come to Tengchong to get goods are southerners." The restaurant owner said, "How many of you are also in the jade business? ”
"I'm making jewelry, carrying some jade with me, making a little fuss, and I can't compare with the big bosses in the south." Zhang Jiefang is telling the truth, his scale is not enough.
"Whose house are you picking up the goods?" The restaurateur asked.
"Wu Facai, what's wrong?" Zhang Jiefang smiled: "Do you also know about these? ”
"More or less, Wu Facai's batch of goods came last month, and it has been picked up several times, so you can pick up the leftovers when you come. I heard from the guests that Liang Jinya in the freight yard can get a batch of good goods these days, if you are interested, you can go over and have a look. If you rush early, you can also pick up good things. The restaurateur said.
"Liang Jinya?" Zhang Jiefang didn't come often, so he naturally didn't know the names of other merchants.
"It's Liang Jinde, because the two front teeth are golden, so others call him Liang Jinya." The restaurant owner smiled: "If you want to grasp it tightly, don't publicize this matter, there are more people staring at the first few days of arrival, and only when it is almost picked in the later stage, where can the owner publicize to find a buyer." ”
Zhang Jiefang nodded after hearing this, and estimated that he was also recruited by Wu Facai in this way. In fact, it is understandable, I don't often come to gamble stones, and when people first arrive, they must give it to regular customers first.
But since Liang Jinya arrived this time, Zhang Jiefang still wanted to go and see it, but it was just to make a scene, he was not an expert in this area, and it was useless to go early.
But Yang Ming was different, after listening to the words of the restaurant owner, Yang Ming's heart moved, he didn't want to let go of this opportunity to make money. Because with his current identity and originality, it is impossible to come to Yunnan often, so it is better to take advantage of this time to do more.
In this way, the biggest problem is sales, what reason can I think of so that Zhang Jiefang does not doubt it? Yang Ming couldn't help frowning. Very pure and ambiguous, the first volume of the ability first appeared.117.New news
