Chapter 430: Jade Market
Lin Qingya will, naturally, clasp the ten fingers of Huang Bai's hand.
This also made Huang Bai feel very clearly that Lin Qingya should really have true feelings for herself and really like herself.
She heard Huang Bai say a little domineering that he would throw money at her own house for her and agree, and she couldn't help but be a little moved.
No matter what, a man is willing to spend crazy money for himself, whether it is vulgar or not, but at least this man is willing to pay for himself because he likes himself. In that case, what more can be asked of this man?
What's more, this man who threw money is also the person she originally liked. This man is so handsome and talented.
Who can not love such a man? And what woman can resist the charm of this man?
Lin Qingya couldn't help but slowly get closer to the cork, and almost didn't completely lean on the cork's shoulder.
She bit her lip and said softly, "Xiaobai, actually...... Actually, people used to like you. However, seeing that you are good with Qianxue and Yuqing, you are so attentive, it is really difficult for people to accept it for a while, so ...... Later, people thought, if you are like this, it is impossible for other people's families to agree to us being together, even if people like you again? At that time, don't say that you won't marry someone, even if you really only like one person, you can marry someone. I don't think my family will agree, after all, at that time, you were probably not looked down upon by my family."
"Well, I can understand that. Your Lin family is also one of the wealthy families, and you pay attention to the right family, and if you are an excellent girl, it is estimated that they will also arrange some marriages for you that are conducive to the development of your Lin family. However, Qingya, you will be at ease with a hundred hearts. Just because I didn't like it before doesn't mean I can't look down on it now. Also, I believe that any wealthy family will also chase profits, as long as the interests are big enough, then I don't think anyone can refuse."
Huang Bai comforted her and said, "Okay, don't think about it, since we both like each other, then we are together, and all the problems will be solved by me." Now, you may be able to talk to me about what your Lin family is mainly engaged in, and let me think about whether I can find a solution from it."
"Then they'll talk to you." Lin Qingya said: "Our Lin family is mainly in four aspects. Uncle is in politics, but it is estimated that he will retire in a few years, so he urgently needs someone from among the officials who can benefit our Lin family to shelter the Lin family. A few years ago, I intended to marry into the son of a big man through marriage...... IāI refused."
"Hmm...... You can leave that side of that alone." Huang Bai listened, he could understand such a situation.
Today's wealthy families are basically inextricably linked to some government officials, and there must be some interests involved. These are indeed the norm in society, as long as the food is not too ugly, and there are some rules inside and out, if there are no problems, some relationships will be maintained.
It's like the situation of Cork in the British Isles and the mayor of Southamp.
Of course, in foreign countries, some things are conventional, semi-public, or even public. But in China, it can't be too obvious, and many things are just understood by each other, and they will never be said openly.
"The second uncle's family is in charge of real estate. In my family, I am in charge of some retail industries, and my fourth uncle is in charge of the jade jewelry industry. In addition, there are some uncles in the clan who also have their own responsible properties, but the main one is the situation of my father's four brothers." Lin Qingya said again.
"Real estate, retail, I probably can't help much. What is the environment of the jade jewelry industry that your fourth uncle is in charge of now?" Huang Bai is really not familiar with some industries, in fact, it is jade jewelry, and Huang Bai is not familiar with it, but Huang Bai feels that maybe he can use his ability to absorb aura from jade to help his Lin family.
"Jewellery Industry...... How do you say this? Gold in troubled times, a collection in prosperous times. No matter what time it is, it can actually be good. However, after entering this Internet era, physical stores have really been hit hard, and it can even be said to be a devastating blow. This also involves the retail industry that I am responsible for at home."
Lin Qingya paused for a moment, shook her head and said, "Actually, I don't know much about family matters. What I know is that it is generally online shopping now, and there is too much competition among peers. The most important thing is that this market is really broken by some shoddy ones. And then it has developed to the present, or it is the low-end market, which is very cheap, and even if you are deceived, you will not feel distressed. Otherwise, it is to do high-end market, and the quality is guaranteed. However, whether it is low-end or high-end, where are there so many A goods in this world? So, everybody is making imitations too."
"I heard from the fourth uncle that our family, because we don't want to make imitations, has not been able to increase the trading volume. Our Lin family jewelry is also a century-old brand, and I don't want to smash my own signboard. However, in the current market, if you don't fight or don't do it, it is equivalent to no business. As a result, recent business has been bleak."
Huang Bai nodded after listening, indeed, like the jewelry industry has developed to the present, especially in this Internet era, the market demand for jewelry is actually quite large. However, the production of those jade jewelry is really very limited, where is there so much A goods? Therefore, there must be a lot of B goods.
To put it mildly, at present, it is very difficult for ordinary people in the market to buy jade jewelry that is worth their money. Basically, one out of ten people can buy A goods is quite good. The other nine people may have bought some worthless B goods, even if they are not B goods, they must be shoddy, and they are extremely low-value objects.
Gold, silver, and diamonds, all of which can be counterfeited and artificially made, not to mention jade jewelry, which is already relatively scarce.
Huang Bai said to Lin Qingya: "Qingya, if I can get a lot of real jade and jade for your family, will this help your family's jewelry industry? But let's talk about it first, I can only get jade and jade, and I can't do anything about those jewelry."
"Huh? You say you can get a lot of jadeite? It's true? How can you get it?" Lin Qingya looked at Huang Bai suspiciously.
"You don't care about this, I have a way anyway. Perhaps, in the future, I may be able to get the mine directly at the place of origin...... Well, this will happen in the future, now, I can help your Lin family get a batch of jade and jade first." Z.br>
"Really? If we can really get it, it will definitely be of great help to the development of our Lin family's jewelry industry."
"That's OK. Well, it's almost there, right? Let's find a place to park our car first, and then let's go to the jade market to see how it goes." Huang Bai had already seen the signs on the highway at this time, and when he was almost there, he couldn't help but let go of his hand that was clasped with Lin Qingya's ten fingers, and controlled the steering wheel with both hands.
"Drive directly to my Jade City, where there is a place to park. Wait, I'll give Uncle Fourth a call to see if he's here in Hundred Flowers City."
After Lin Qingya finished speaking, she took out her mobile phone and dialed it.
Soon connected, Lin Qingya said a few words with some surprise, and then hung up the phone.
"My fourth uncle is here, he said he was gambling on stones. These days, a batch of new raw materials has arrived, and many jade merchants are also grabbing it." Lin Qingya said.
"Your fourth uncle is gambling on stones?" Huang Bai sweated and said, "Ten bets and nine losses, is it possible to achieve only by relying on this to get jade and jade?"
"Of course not, our time-honored brands actually have a way to get the goods directly at the place of origin, but those are all good goods that have been opened by others. The price is frighteningly expensive, and even if we get the goods, we won't be able to make a lot of money when we come back and sell them as jewelry. Usually I just get a little bit back and make some prototypes. Secondly, it is to pick from those half-open products, but this also carries a little gambling nature, one is not good, then cry. There are many businessmen, and there are also those who have gone bankrupt."
"Hehe, you know a lot."
"These are the basics. Then, it is to watch other people's gambling stones, and when the goods are shipped, they will directly bid for the auction. My fourth uncle is actually a little black hand, he doesn't dare to gamble on stones himself, he should be watching others gamble on stones."
"That's right, let's go check it out." Cork just wants to see from those rough stones
You can feel the presence of Reiki from it.
Lin Qingya has obviously been here, well, this is also one of her Lin family's industries, and it is strange that she has not been here.
She showed Huang Bai the way, and after a while she came to a building, and from the side of it, she could enter the underground parking lot.
After coming out, Huang Bai saw that next to the building, there was a four- or five-story building, which was Lin Jiazhu store.
Lin Qingya introduced that it was her family's jewelry store, and that building was also her Lin family's property.
The floor is quite large, looking into the jewelry, and the decoration is quite atmospheric.
There are not many high-rise buildings in this jade market, most of them are three- or four-storey buildings, and some of them look more like warehouses.
However, the streets are mostly filled with jade jewelry shops.
There are also many high-rise buildings, but they are separated from each other, and they seem to be a bit scattered.
The building where the parking lot is located is also a commercial building specializing in jewelry.
Lin Family Jewelry also has a store inside.
In other words, it may have really been affected by the impact of the Internet era, if the big jade market, to the cork feeling, is not as many people as imagined. Although there are many people hurrying around the streets, there are really not many, and there is no feeling of crowding and bustling.
Lin Qingya took Huang Bai into the building, all the way to the third floor, to a vast hall.
Here, I found the lively feeling of crowding.
It turned out that this was a jadeite rough exhibition hall.
As far as you can see, there are piles of various stones, large and small.
Yes, for cork, what kind of jade rough is similar to ordinary stones.
Now, many people are piercing the edges among these rough stones, looking east and west from time to time, and from time to time with some small flashlights to look at some stones.
In another stall, a large group of people gathered, surrounded by water.
But someone is calcing the stone, and someone may have opened a good product, which caused a commotion.
Huang Bai and Lin Qingya didn't get too close, and both of them were wearing hats, sunglasses and masks at this time.
There's no way, they're all big stars, and it's really not good if they're recognized.
"My uncle is there, I'll call him and call him out." Lin Qingya said.
"Wait." Huang Bai stopped her and said, "I came to buy something, why don't you let me pick a batch of goods first, now that there are so many people, it's not good to say anything." After I have picked out the goods, we will invite your fourth uncle to dinner in a while, get to know each other well, and by the way, let's talk about getting a jade for your family."
"Oh? Didn't you say you were going to buy a batch of jade jewelry? I called my uncle and went to my shop to pick it up. My uncle only knows the true value of those jade jewelry, and he will give you a discount when the time comes."
"I've changed my mind, let's just pick the rough stone, otherwise, how can I provide your family with jadeite raw materials?"
"You want to gamble on stones? Just pick from these stones? You are crazy? My uncle can't even pick out a rough stone with jadeite." Lin Qingya lost her voice.
She didn't think that Huang Bai would be able to pick out the jade rough directly from those rough stones.
And this, Huang Bai is not easy to explain to her.
"I'm not crazy, you don't have to worry about this for now."
Huang Bai didn't explain, beckoned Liu Liangcan, who was not far away, and asked him to get a small flashlight for himself from others, and asked him to take someone to follow him.
Get a small flashlight, this is just for pretending, in fact, with such a light to see the rough stone, it is difficult to really see anything.
Huang Bai was too lazy to waste time, so he went straight down and walked in front of a large field of rough stones.
Pretending to take a small flashlight on a rough stone, in fact, the cork is running the immortal seal method in the body, and then sending a little true qi into the rough stone to see if you can sense whether there is a reaction of aura inside.
These rough stones are a layer of slurry, and there is no jade structure, so if you want to convey true qi in, it is really good
Troublesome.
After transporting the true qi in, if it is a jade structure, then there will definitely be an aura reaction, as if using the invisible true qi of the cork to drill a hole and build a bridge, you can absorb the aura in the jade and absorb it into your own body.
However, when it is absorbed into the body, it still needs to be refined and transformed into the true qi of its own immortal seal method, which takes a certain amount of time. Therefore, Huang Bai definitely can't absorb cultivation on this spot, but he only needs to sense the aura.
As a result, Huang Bai observed nearly ten large and small jade rough stones, and finally sensed the aura reaction.
This really made Huang Bai feel a little speechless, this is really ten gambles and nine cheats, ten stones, only one is really jade.
This rough stone, the size of a basketball, is quite heavy.
These are pure wool and have not been opened. So, the price is going to be a lot cheaper.
The specific price, cork is also difficult to understand for a while, anyway, the rough stone here, according to the size, weight, look at the origin, look at the color, etc., some say what is the old pit goods, not big size, but also buy expensive, some big, but buy very cheap.
Anyway, it seems that it is difficult to really have a standard pricing for the things here, and you can also bargain.
In the rough stone booth, there are staff members looking after it. They must all be professionals.
But this is not the kind of private nature to get a batch of stones to buy here, but there are companies, and the new raw materials here are a batch of new goods that their company got back from the place of origin.
Well, that's what to say, but how exactly is unknown.
Huang Bai sensed that this piece had an aura, and asked the staff present for the price, and asked for one million.
Cork is really dizzy.
Ignore him on the spot and continue to look at something else.
They are not entangled, it may be a company relationship, so they are not like private bosses chasing bargains and trying to make a business.
Huang Bai then found two or three more pieces, but they didn't move for the time being, and then found a lot of stones and asked for the price, good fellow, and it was also a million when he opened his mouth. Obviously it was a stone with nothing, so he dared to open his mouth.
Cork also figured it out, it turned out that these were only put here for exhibition, and they didn't think they could buy them. Of course, if there are fish in the water and buy some, this is also considered as their earnings.
In this way, Cork is really not in a hurry, Cork wants to buy a batch of goods, but it will not be slaughtered by them as a fish in vain.
Of course, the one you picked out yourself may really be worth millions. But Cork won't spend this unjust money.
These stones, it is estimated that they themselves do not know which one has jadeite, and if they knew, they would definitely not release it for sale again.
It wasn't until Cork went all the way to a stall that seemed to be of more tangible value, and Cork picked out more than a dozen rough stones with aura reactions. Then it took a total of about 100,000 yuan to take it down.
The largest piece, which is larger than a blue ball, cost 30,000 cork.
Others, large and small, are also ten thousand.
Huang Bai thinks that such a price may be a bit high, but the one he chooses must have jade, and the specific value depends on the situation.
After all, Cork really can't tell the quality of the jade in the stone directly through the aura. Some jade is coarse, but the jade has a good structure and is larger, and the aura may be more and richer.
And some, maybe a little bit of jade, will also be full of a very strong aura, and those jade may be good jade.
Huang Bai doesn't care about the quality of jade, as long as there is aura.
I bought some directly, and asked Liu Liangcan and others to send someone to find a truck and load it into the car first. You don't have to worry about these corks, they also have someone here to help move the goods, just keep an eye on it.
Huang Bai will not stare at a stall, and buy another batch one after another.
I bought it directly, and I bought a lot of it at once, which also attracted the attention of many people.
In the end, Huang Bai spent a total of about 10 million yuan to buy a small truckload of goods.
