Thunder was rolling outside the window, electric snakes were swimming in the dark clouds, and strong winds were carrying heavy rain that was raging crazily across the land.
"The wind is really strong. Even the green trees as thick as a bowl have been blown down, tsk tsk~" Vice President of Sales Department "Zhao Bin" stood by the window, leisurely enjoying the rain while drinking fragrant coffee.
After drinking a cup of coffee, he turned back to sit behind the big desk, took out a soft cloth from the drawer, and began to carefully wipe the huge 60-centimeter-tall Maitreya Buddha. The Maitreya Buddha made of white jade was extraordinary and lifelike. Zhao Bin liked this very much. The huge Maitreya Buddha.
Buzz~
Suddenly, the landline phone placed on the corner of the table rang.
"Hello?"
"Li Shu came to the door of the company and wanted to see me? He didn't see me or wasted my time." Hearing the call from the front desk, the half-bald Zhao Bin frowned instantly.
"What!? 19mm top quality pearls!!" But the next words from the front desk shocked him, and his attitude changed instantly, and he said: "Please come quickly!"
19mm high-quality pearls are extremely rare, so he has to pay attention to them.
After tidying up his clothes, the half-bald Zhao Bin went to the elevator entrance to greet Li Shu like a rolling ball. As the red number leaping above the elevator stopped on "5", the elevator door opened with a ding~.
"Mr. Zhao, I'm here to bother you again." Li Shu, who is carrying a gray backpack, looks ordinary at first glance, but if you look closely, it seems to be extraordinary, especially the vague confidence. Son, it seems that there is nothing he cannot do.
"Tweet~" The thrush opened the zipper with its sharp beak, jumped out of the backpack and flew to the right shoulder of the plum tree. It tilted its little head and looked curiously at Zhao Bin's big belly, seeming to be thinking - how many bugs would it take to eat this? So fat
"No, no, no, no, please, please, please."
The two came to Zhao Bin's office, and soon an employee brought fragrant tea. After chatting for a while, Li Shu took out a small wooden box from his backpack.
In Zhao Bin's expectant eyes, click~ the wooden box was opened instantly, and in an instant, round white pearls came into Zhao Bin's eyes.
"This, this, this... so many 19mm pearls?" Zhao Bin shrank his pupils and exclaimed. He is also a veteran who has been immersed in the pearl industry for decades. Whether a pearl has a diameter of 18mm or 19mm can be distinguished at a glance.
He immediately called two white-haired appraisers. The three of them held magnifying glasses and calipers to appraise together, very carefully.
Li Shu leaned back on the chair and drank tea slowly while paying careful attention to the expressions of Zhao Bin and the two appraisers.
He saw "shocked", "unbelievable", "excited" and other emotions from the expressions of the two appraisers, and sighed inwardly: "My previous price was 350,000 ringgit. After all, the one Su Zhizhe photographed before One is also about 19mm, and he bought it for RM300,000.
But looking at the appraiser’s expression, I should have mentioned the price in my mind~”
Tweet~
The thrush was not shy at all. It circled the small office a few times, then landed directly on the head of the 60-centimeter-tall Maitreya Buddha, and then used its sharp beak to preen its feathers.
After some appraisals, the two appraisers approached Zhao Bin's ears and whispered.
Their voices were extremely weak, and ordinary people would never be able to hear them clearly. However, after taking chalcedony spiritual water many times, Li Shu's physical fitness has improved in all aspects, and he could clearly hear the three of them muttering.
"About 450,000 pieces."
"Yes, a pearl of this quality is worth 450,000."
"However, 450,000 can be set as the base price. You can bid 300,000 for each pearl first. The quality of these pearls is really good, and the soft light is very distinctive. I'm afraid we can use this as a selling point."
When Zhao Bin and the three of them conversed, they did not use Chinese Mandarin or Cantonese, but "colloquial Malaysian Chinese."
The significant difference from Mandarin is that "colloquial Malaysian Chinese" is mixed with many English words, Malay words, Cantonese, and Hokkien pronunciations.
For example, "Pearl", they say "Poerleo", which is the Malaysian pronunciation of the English word Pearl.
"Ahem~" Zhao Bin skillfully switched to Mandarin and waved the two appraisers to leave. Bang~ As the door closed, there were only two people left in the small office.
The thrush squatted on the jade Maitreya Buddha's head and fell asleep, humming from time to time, as if he was dreaming.
"Mr. Li, the source of these pearls..."
"My dad collected these in his early years. I used some of them to exchange for some pocket money." Li Shu said carelessly: "Mr. Zhao, please don't even think about picking up pearls here. I have asked other pearls to be appraised before coming here." The master has seen it, and the quality of my pearls is much higher than ordinary pearls."
"Oh? Hiss... How much do you want, Mr. Li?" The half-bald Zhao Bin suddenly became nervous, and his heart suddenly went cold as he just wanted to pick up the pearls. However, it is normal to think about it. It is also reasonable to find someone to appraise the pearls before selling them. among.
"500,000 ringgit each! 50 pills in total, which is 25 million ringgit!"
"Ahem~ Mr. Li's price is too high..." Zhao Bin almost fell off his chair.
After some haggling, the final price was set at 450,000, which was Zhao Bin's bottom line.
Li Shu did not sell all the pearls to Tianzhu Nake Group. He was worried that he had just bought 100 clams from here not long ago, and if he took out 100 pearls now, he might attract someone's attention.
Don't underestimate other people's ability to associate. In order to ensure your own safety as much as possible, Li Shu must nip all dangers in the cradle.
Buzz~
Li Shu opened the text message on his mobile phone and saw a payment reminder: "Congratulations, dear customer, your bank card with the last number 1122 received RM22.5 million at 5:23 pm on June 21, 2017..."
Seeing that 22.5 million yuan had arrived, Li Shu's heart was filled with great joy for a moment. He stood up and said: "Okay, when I finish spending the money, I may sell some pearls to your company. That's it for today." .”
The half-bald Zhao Bin also stood up, but his eyes flashed with envy and jealousy. He can be considered a successful person, but he has worked hard for half his life and failed to save 20 million ringgit.
"Mr. Li, let me give you a gift. Whenever you want to sell pearls, just come to me directly. I will be waiting for you at any time."
"No need to send it off, I can just leave by myself."
"No, no, no, I still have to give it away."
At the exit on the first floor of the building, woo hoo hoo~ the black taxi drove into the endless rain, its lights like two beams of light, gradually disappearing around the far corner.
"Hiss~" Zhao Bin, who was standing behind the glass door, took a long drag on his cigarette and muttered: "I'm so envious of people. Compared with these handsome second-generation rich people, it's too difficult for me to make money."
Boom~
The taxi was driving on the road, occasionally crossing a small pothole with water half a meter deep. The car was bumping slightly. Looking at the heavy rain outside through the car window, Li Shu said while stroking the little head of the blackbird in his arms: " Go to Binsco Clubhouse.”
"Okay, boss." The temporary taxi driver said.
