Glass jade, as the name suggests, is as transparent as glass, has very fine quality, and dense crystal particles. It is the best among jade.
Although the glutinous variety is far inferior to the glass variety, its overall structure is relatively fine and textured, hazy and indistinguishable, with cottoniness inside the structure. The glutinous variety with good water head can even reach the level of ice variety.
For a long time, the proportion of glutinous jade in jade types is relatively large, and it is also loved by many jade lovers.
Xiang Yang roughly estimated in his mind that the price of this pure gold ring plus a piece of glutinous jade must be more than 30,000.
"Brother Huang is kind-hearted, so please accept it, Mr. Xiang." Zhang Qicheng said with a smile.
Xiang Yang shook his head. "I won't accept the things. I will discuss the matter with Village Chief Zuo after I return. But don't hold your hopes too high. If you really want to settle in Qinglongwan, I suggest you choose the department store and set up a backup plan."
Manager Huang wanted to say something else, but Zhang Qicheng, who was familiar with Xiang Yang's character, spoke first: "Manager Huang, since President Xiang has already agreed to your request, you can just wait for the news. Also, give me this gift. I have wanted a piece of ice-glutinous jadeite for a long time. Since President Xiang doesn't want it, then give it to me at a discount."
Xiang Yang glanced at Zhang Qicheng. It seemed that Zhang Qicheng was asking for something, but in fact, compared with the worth of Zhang Qicheng and Manager Huang, Zhang Qicheng was trying to give Manager Huang a way out.
Sure enough, the next moment, Xiang Yang saw a smile on Manager Huang's face.
"I was not well prepared this time. Next time I will come to your house in person to thank you, Mr. Xiang." Manager Huang said to Xiang Yang.
Xiang Yang shook his head, "Don't hold your hopes too high."
As he spoke, Xiang Yang stood up and said to Zhang Qicheng, "Boss Zhang, let's go to Longcheng first."
Zhang Qicheng stood up cheerfully and waved to Manager Huang, "Brother Huang, Mr. Xiang and I have some things to do in Longcheng, so I won't accompany you for now."
"Of course we have to take care of business first. Mr. Zhang, Mr. Xiang, take care. Come and visit me often when you have time." Manager Huang said quickly.
When Xiang Yang and Manager Zhang walked out of the store, Manager Huang frowned and let out a long sigh.
Zhang Qicheng walked out of the KFC store, turned his head and looked behind him, then said in a low voice: "This old Huang is so stingy. He asked us for help, but he didn't even give us a VIP card before he left."
Xiang Yang rolled his eyes, "Boss Zhang, are you someone who needs a KFC VIP card?"
Zhang Qicheng smiled awkwardly when he heard this.
Indeed, the VIP cards of some places are a recognition of a person's identity and strength.
But even if Zhang Qicheng was given a VIP card for a restaurant like KFC, he would never be able to carry it with him.
Xiang Yang stared at Zhang Qicheng seriously, "Boss Zhang, don't change the subject. You must have known about this for a long time, and you deliberately lured me here this time."
Zhang Qicheng sighed helplessly, "A drop of water should be repaid with a spring. When I was at my lowest point, he gave me a glass of water. Now he needs my help, how can I not help him?"
"Besides, KFC's move into Qinglongwan will definitely bring more benefits than disadvantages to Qinglongwan. I think Mr. Xiang should think about it carefully."
Xiang Yang shook his head, there was no need to consider this matter anymore.
There is no way Xiang Yang would harm his own interests or the interests of the village for the sake of Manager Huang, whom he had only met once. This is non-negotiable.
Of course, Xiang Yang will convey Manager Huang’s intentions to Village Chief Zuo and help him analyze the pros and cons.
Seeing that Xiang Yang seemed adamant, Zhang Qicheng decisively changed the subject.
"Will we take the national highway or the provincial highway?" Zhang Qicheng asked Xiang Yang.
It takes more than half an hour to drive from Liancheng to Longcheng. There is only one national highway and one provincial highway in between, and there is no expressway.
"Let's take the provincial road." Xiang Yang said.
Although the ultimate goal is to reach Longcheng whether taking the provincial highway or the national highway, and the two routes take about the same amount of time, the final destinations are completely different. One ends at the northernmost part of Longcheng, and the other ends at the easternmost part of Longcheng.
Zhang Qicheng nodded. This result was almost the same as what Zhang Qicheng had guessed.
Xiang Yang is in the seafood business, and if you take the provincial road, as soon as the car arrives in Longcheng, there is a seafood wholesale trial production not far away.
Soon, the two arrived at Dragon City.
Zhang Qicheng parked the Alpha directly in a paid parking lot outside a seafood market, then, holding a cigarette in his mouth, he said to Xiang Yang: "This seafood wholesale market is my business. If you want to buy something, just buy it here. Most of the stalls and stores inside are operated by my company."
"The few individual shops are all carefully selected by the company and are reputable. There are almost no counterfeit goods or overcharging in this market," said Zhang Qicheng.
Xiang Yang looked at the seafood market. To be honest, although he intended to come out to purchase some food, he definitely had not thought about purchasing seafood. This time he came out mainly to purchase some meat, vegetables and fruits.
After all, after being at sea for half a year, everyone was tired of eating seafood.
However, since Zhang Qicheng has already wanted to bring him here, and this is Zhang Qicheng's place, it would not be good for Xiang Yang if he did not go in and take care of the business.
After thinking about it, Xiang Yang walked into the seafood wholesale market and bought hundreds of kilograms of mantis shrimp in one go.
All mantis shrimps are marine and originated in the Jurassic period of the Mesozoic era. Most species live in tropical and subtropical waters, and a few are found in temperate waters. They are found along the coast of my country. Among them, the wide-temperature species of mantis shrimp under the family Mantismilcidae and the genus Mantismilcidae are the most widely distributed and have the largest yield.
These mantis shrimps should all be artificially bred. They are not very active in the water. In terms of appearance, there is a movable trapezoidal frontal plate on the front edge of the cephalothorax, and in front of it are movable eye segments and antennae.
The abdomen is very broad, with a total of six segments in the body, and a wide and short tail segment at the end. There is a central ridge on the back and strong spines on the posterior edge.
The first antennae of these mantis shrimps have a slender stalk divided into three sections, with three tentacles at the end for touch.
The second antennae have two segments at the stalk, with a tentacle whip and an oblong scale on it.
After the shop owner weighed the mantis shrimp for Xiang Yang, he told him, "Boss, the mouthparts and jaws of these mantis shrimp are very hard. Both the molars and incisors have tooth-like protrusions that can easily cut and grind food. When you go back to handle these mantis shrimp, you must be careful not to let them bite your fingers."
Xiang Yang looked at the shop owner, a plump young woman with arms almost as thick as Xiang Yang's thighs.
