Chapter 3: Selling Jade
The next day, Wei Li stuffed the piece of jade into his schoolbag, left home with his schoolbag, and took the No. 3 bus to the jade street in the city.
Jade Street is a famous pedestrian street in the city, the street is kilometers long, and on both sides are shops buying and selling jade antiques.
There are also stalls on both sides of the street, displaying some old-looking things.
Today is Saturday, and there are a lot of people on the streets, and some tourists from other places come here to find treasures.
Most of the things in these stalls are antique and distressed fakes.
There are also genuine goods, but there are not many of them, and if you want to come here to Taobao, you need to have good eyesight.
Of course, luck is also very important.
Today, Wei Li is here to sell things, although he is interested in the things placed in these stalls, but he has no money, Wei Li plans to wait until he sells the jade and then come to visit this jade street.
"Jigu Zhai, that's it!"
It took Wei Li more than half an hour to finally select the jade shop that looked the largest and most quaint and luxuriously decorated on the street.
As soon as Wei Ligang entered the door, he saw a clerk introducing jade jewelry to a young couple.
The clerk saw that Wei Li looked poor and sour, so he just glanced at it, didn't pay attention to Wei Li anymore, and continued to introduce products to the couple.
Wei Li swept the couple, and saw that the young man was wearing a brand-name suit, a large gold chain around his neck, a large gold watch on his wrist, and a girl with a hot body and heavy makeup in his hand.
At this moment, the young man was pacing in a figure of eight steps and walked towards Wei Li.
Wei Li frowned, this nouveau riche young man Wei Li knew that it was his junior high school classmate Zhao Huairen.
When this guy was in junior high school, he often found trouble with Wei Li for no reason, and after graduation, the class built a WeChat group, and this person often showed off in the group, and Wei Li hated this person very much.
Zhao Huairen is now in high spirits, it seems that he has mixed well in the past few years after graduating from junior high school, and the outfit on his body alone must have at least tens of thousands of dollars.
Compared with Wei Li's two hundred yuan stalls, it looks much brighter.
At this time, Zhao Huairen also discovered Wei Li, and pretended to be surprised and said, "Yo, isn't this the old squad leader Wei Li?"
I heard that some time ago you were so poor that you had to sell your house to save your mother?
In the past few years, I have opened a seafood stall on Liurong Road in the south of the city, and now I am worth millions, if you can't get along, follow me in the future!"
I think that when I was in junior high school, Wei Li was their class president, with good grades and often took the first exam.
Zhao Huairen is a poor student, and he is very jealous of Wei Li in his heart.
Now the situation of the two is different, he is now the owner of a food stall, and he is worth millions.
And Wei Li looked very down, he was not at the same level as him at all, so he naturally wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate Wei Li.
The hot girl snuggled up to Zhao Huairen's shoulder and looked at Wei Li with disdain.
The girl was beside her, which made Zhao Huairen more energetic, looking like a winner in life and a successful person, looking at Wei Li, a loser.
Looking at Zhao Huairen's lofty appearance, Wei Li's heart was even more disgusted.
This kind of nouveau riche is rampant, arrogant, and wears a gold chain and gold watch, as if he is afraid that others will not know that he is rich.
Wei Li sneered and said, "Don't worry about it, classmate Zhao, I'm doing well now! I don't need to go to the food stall to work!"
When Zhao Huairen heard this, he laughed and said: "The squad leader is the squad leader, and now he is so poor, and he is still pretending to be high!"
Wei Li turned his face away and ignored Zhao Huairen no more.
Zhao Huairen continued to look Wei Li up and down, and suddenly asked: "I said squad leader, what are you doing here today? Could it be that you want to come here to buy something, right? The jade jewelry here is at least five or six thousand, with your current net worth, it is estimated that you can't afford it!"
Wei Li snorted coldly and said, "There are a few broken stones in my house that take up too much space, now take out one and see how much it can be sold." β
When Zhao Huairen heard this, he laughed and said: "My squad leader! I see that you are poor and want to help you, but you still don't accept it! Now you are so poor that you have to come to sell stones! When will you change your temper?"
Then he looked at Wei Li and said, "What kind of stone do you want to sell?" Why don't you take it out and let everyone appreciate it, so that we can open our eyes?"
The guy also showed a look of disdain, their shop was the largest jade shop on this street, but they didn't accept everything, and they really couldn't get into their eyes without a certain grade.
Wei Li sneered, immediately put the backpack on the countertop, and took out the jade from the backpack last night.
As soon as the jade was taken out, the side of the skin shell suddenly revealed an astonishing emerald green.
The guy immediately put away his contempt, took a closer look, and exclaimed: "This piece should be the best jade! Like such a large piece, the market estimate is at least at the level of tens of millions! Please wait a moment, I will call our manager right away!"
After this guy finished speaking, he entered the inner hall in a hurry, leaving Zhao Huairen and his girlfriend with a stunned face.
Although Wei Li was indifferent on the surface, he was very excited in his heart!
If there are 10 million, he must first cure his mother's illness and let her live a good life!
Then Wei Li thought of that divine coin again, it can really make people's luck better, and their wishes come true!
Wei Li couldn't help but look forward to such an awesome divine coin.
Just when Zhao Huairen was dumbfounded, the guy walked out of the inner hall with an old man who was well-dressed and had an extraordinary temperament.
As soon as the old man saw the green on the countertop, his eyes immediately shrank, and he walked forward quickly, picked up the jade and examined it carefully, and then nodded, a hint of surprise flashed on his face.
The old man put down the jade, turned around, and smiled at Wei Li very enthusiastically: "Qiao Hai, the manager of the contemptible Ji Guzhai, this piece of jade is undoubtedly the best jade, and the value is extremely high!"
As for the specific price, please move to the inner hall to use tea, and we will talk about it again!"
Wei Li nodded indifferently and said, "It's okay!"
After that, he directly ignored Zhao Huairen and his girlfriend, who were stunned, and walked in front of the two with jade.
"Little brother, please!"
Qiao Hai very politely led Wei Li into the inner hall.
"I didn't expect this kid's family background to be so strong, and a piece of jade is worth tens of millions at will!
Compared with his millions of net worth, my net worth of millions is nothing compared to him!
I boasted of my wealth in front of him just now!"
Zhao Huairen didn't have the face to stay in the store anymore, he just felt very disappointed, so he took his girlfriend and left Jigu Zhai in a gloomy manner.
The decoration of the inner hall is more elaborate than the outer hall, the classical decoration, antique, and the living room has a good smell of sandalwood.
There are various colors of jade carved porcelain and antique paintings on the wall cabinet.
Wei Li's knowledge is limited, and he doesn't know the value of these things.
After Wei Li sat down on a sandalwood chair, a guy served a good dragon well, Wei Li took a sip, only felt that he only felt that his teeth and cheeks were fragrant, and his heart was relaxed.
At this time, I saw Qiao Hai and said with a smile: "I don't know my little brother's surname?"
Wei Li put down the teacup and said indifferently: "Don't have your surname Wei." β
Qiao Hai nodded and said, "It turned out to be Mr. Wei!"
Then he handed over two more cards and said to Wei Li: "This is a contemptible business card, as well as the VIP card of our store."
In the future, if Mr. Wei wants to sell any antique jade, he can come to me directly!
Of course, if Mr. Wei wants to buy any jade jewelry, with this VIP card in his hand, he will give you a 20% discount!"
Wei Li nodded and put away his business card and VIP card, and said with a smile: "Then thank you Manager Qiao!"
Qiao Hai saw that Wei Li had accepted the card, and immediately asked straight to the point, "I wonder if Mr. Wei really intends to sell this superb jadeite?"
Wei Li nodded and said, "I came here, naturally I really want to sell this jadeite! But at this priceγγγγγγ β
Wei Li pretended to hesitate.
Qiao Hai hurriedly said: "The price is negotiable!"
Now the jadeite mines on the Myanmar side are close to exhaustion, and there has been no such superb jadeite for several years!
However, the size of your jadeite is only medium, so I dare to value your jadeite at thirteen million!
"Thirteen million! That's a lot of money! Even if I work all my life, I guess I won't be able to make that much money, right?"
Wei Li's heart was beating wildly, and his heart was very excited.
However, on the surface, he pretended to be very indifferent and said: "Okay, then according to Manager Qiao's bid, I will sell it to you for 13 million!"
Seeing that Wei Li had agreed to sell the jade at this price, Qiao Hai's face suddenly showed joy, and he said very happily: "Mr. Wei is refreshing, please provide your account, and I will let people transfer the money to your account!"
Wei Li nodded, took the pen and paper handed over by the guy, and wrote his bank account number to the guy.
Qiao Hai took Wei Li's note, glanced at it, and immediately handed it to a middle-aged man standing behind him with bulging temples and a very burly figure: "Quickly put 13 million into this account!"
The middle-aged man took the note, nodded, and immediately went out to run errands.
During the time of waiting for the arrival of the account, Qiao Hai chatted with Wei Li without a match, knocking on the side, first wanting to find out the origin of Wei Li and the origin of this jade.
This Qiao Hai is worthy of being an old man in the shopping mall, very talkative, although there is a meaning of listening to Wei Li's background in his words, but it is not disgusting, but there is a feeling of talking very happily, like a spring breeze.
Wei Li knew that this Qiao Hai was listening to his own details, so he naturally wouldn't tell the truth, but just prevaricated with half-truths.
Regarding the origin of this piece of jadeite, Wei Li only deduced that it was handed down by his ancestors, and now he is short of money, so he took it out and sold it.
Qiao Hai listened to Wei Li's words, and he didn't doubt him.
After a while, Wei Li's mobile phone suddenly shook.
Wei Li picked up his mobile phone and looked at it, and found that it was a notification text message from ICBC, and when he clicked on it, it was the information that 13 million had been received.
And at this moment, the burly middle-aged man who had just gone out had also returned.
"Mr. Wei, the amount is correct, right?"
Qiao Hai looked at Wei Li and asked with a smile.
"It's not bad at all, Manager Qiao is really efficient!"
Wei Li said with a smile.
Then Wei Li got up and said, "Since the transaction has been completed, then I will leave first!"
Qiao Hai sent Wei Li out of the door, and then returned satisfied, and then immediately picked up his mobile phone and made a call: "Miss, today the old slave bought a piece of superb jadeγγγγγγ β
