Around two o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them arrived in Yunnan. There was Zhang Jiefang's business partner here to greet him. As soon as he got off the plane, he greeted him warmly.
"Boss Zhang, you're fine!" The other party shook hands with Zhang Jiefang cordially.
"Boss Wu, this car has been replaced by a Hummer. It seems that we have made a lot of money this year!" Zhang Jiefang said with a smile.
"No, no, you Gods of Wealth are taking care of me!" Wu Cai said.
Wu Cai's name is very interesting. His family was very poor when he was young, and his parents hoped that he would become rich in the future, so they named him Wu Cai. But his surname is Wu, which sounds like he is not rich! However, Wu Cai has been struggling a lot in the past few years. From the initial tens of thousands, he has now earned hundreds of millions.
"Why, how is the product this time? You know I am not an expert. I rarely come to play with this. I only play with it occasionally when the yield rate of the product is high!" Zhang Jiefang said.
"Boss Zhang, don't worry, the stones coming from Myanmar this time are definitely good goods. If it weren't for the fact that we got along over a drink at the wine table, I wouldn't have thought of giving you a hand, brother!" Wu Cai said.
"What's the price?" This is the question that Zhang Jiefang is most concerned about.
"The price of item A is about the same as that of item B, 500 a piece!" Wu Cai said.
"500 is so expensive? It wasn't 200 last time I came here?" Zhang Jiefang asked deliberately exaggeratedly.
"My boss Zhang, you are doing this, don't you know? Last time it was a B product, and the rough stone is not as big as this time!" Wu Cai said: "You will know when you see the goods tomorrow!"
Wu Cai has already arranged a place to stay, in a three-star hotel. The environment is pretty good. Because it was arranged by others, Zhang Jiefang couldn't find faults, not to mention it was really good here.
After putting away the luggage. Wu Cai arranged a dinner to greet Zhang Jiefang. Seeing this posture, Zhang Jiefang knew in his heart that even if tomorrow's goods were not ideal, he would still have to pay hundreds of thousands for it.
But the business world is all about face. Although interests come first, face must be taken into consideration without harming the interests of both parties.
Returning to the hotel in the evening, Zhang Jiefang gave Zhang Bin 10,000 yuan and said, "You two go play by yourself tomorrow. If you don't have enough money, call me!"
"No problem!" Zhang Bin quickly took the money. Zhang Jiefang usually gives him pocket money. They were all in the hundreds and hundreds, which was the first time they were so generous.
"By the way, Uncle Zhang, what exactly were you talking about with that Uncle Wu today?" Yang Ming was a little curious. He had been confused at the wine table just now. A piece of broken stone can be sold for five hundred yuan? Is there such a huge profit in this world? Yang Ming really couldn't understand that Wu Cai had accumulated hundreds of millions of dollars by reselling stones in three years!
What kind of degree is this? If you can find a similar profession and continue it. Then it will be a matter of time before Wang Zhitao passes!
"Oh, you are talking about jadeite!" Zhang Jiefang was a little drunk and wanted to show off in front of the juniors! In normal times, Zhang Jiefang could still maintain some dignity as an elder. Now, like Yang Ming's buddies, he sat on the bed in the hotel and started chatting: "Yang Ming, you also know what Uncle Zhang is doing. In the jewelry business, in addition to gold and platinum, jade is also one of my important business items!
There are two types of real jade: soft and hard. Commonly speaking, ground jade mostly refers to soft jade. Jadeite also has another popular name - jade. The stone we and your Uncle Wu are talking about today refers to jade that has not been opened. That is to say, I don’t know if it is a jade stone. Because there are several grades of jade, the best is what we call jade. The ones behind are all defective. Jade just looks like stone, so we in the industry usually call it stone.
The sale of raw jadeite is the most mysterious transaction in the jewelry world. Its mystery lies in the word "gambling", so buyers also say that they gamble on jade or stones. There is often a layer of skin on the surface of jade. Due to oxidation, the skin has turned into brown-red, brown-black or other various colors. Generally, its true appearance cannot be seen at a glance just from the appearance. Even in today's scientifically prosperous world, there is no instrument that can quickly determine through this outer shell whether it is gemstone or waste material.
At your uncle's level, I only play casually. This thing involves too much luck, not to mention that they don't allow you to bring equipment to gamble on jade! "
This is the first time Yang Ming has heard that there is such a business in the world. Isn't it similar to buying lottery tickets? Lottery…
Yang Ming seemed to have caught some idea: "Uncle Zhang, I'll go to the stone gambling place tomorrow! Is that okay?"
"Yes, there's nothing wrong with that. If you're interested, my uncle will give you a few pieces, and you and Zhang Bin can polish it by hand for fun!" Zhang Jiefang said.
"Yang Ming, let's not go there. What's there to see? Why don't we go around and have fun!" Zhang Bin obviously had no interest in this.
"Zhang Bin, I haven't seen it before. I'm curious, so I won't waste much time and just go and have a look!" Yang Ming suggested.
"That's right, Zhang Bin, what's the matter with you kid? Yang Ming is the guest, you are the host, and it is only natural for the host to accompany the guest! Well, if you are still unwilling, I will not give you pocket money in the future!" Zhang Jiefang, of course I also want Zhang Bin to get in touch with these industries, because I have such a big family business, and Zhang Bin will definitely inherit it in the future. More exposure will not do any harm to Zhang Bin in the future!
"Ah? That's good! Isn't it okay if I go?" Zhang Bin immediately withered when he heard that he wouldn't pay.
Yang Ming smiled. He couldn't understand what Zhang Jiefang meant! But I didn’t say anything, it would be great if I could achieve my goal!
When he returned to the room in the evening, Zhang Bin was a little dissatisfied and asked with a grimace: "Yang Ming, why are you interested in those things? How boring!"
"Haha, I'm just curious!" Yang Ming explained.
"Brother, are you curious if you can find something useful? I'm still hoping to pick up a girl!" Zhang Bin complained.
"Fuck a girl? Forget it in Yunnan. You haven't read Wesley's novel. He had a one-night stand here alone. In the end, the one-night stand partner was still a virgin. He had to force that person to marry her. That person Of course he disagreed and ran away! As a result, the girl poisoned him when she was angry, and in the end the man almost exploded and died!" Yang Ming said.
"Damn it, boss, don't scare me. Why is this thing you're talking about so pseudo-scientific?" Zhang Bin couldn't help but feel a chill.
science? Haha, Yang Ming smiled. It’s just that there are really many things in this world that cannot be explained by science, such as my own superpowers. Is this considered science or pseudoscience
You call it science? The current level of science and technology cannot explain it at all. It is called pseudoscience. So how to explain the phenomenon that Yang Ming is experiencing now
Therefore, things that cannot be explained by science cannot be generalized by pseudoscience!
"Everything I say is true. If you don't believe it, just try it!" Yang Ming decided to tease him.
"Ah? Damn, I should have known better than to come to this ghost place. Damn, it's so bad!" Zhang Bin fell on the bed dejectedly.
"Haha, I'm scaring you. In fact, there are very few people who know how to do voodoo. In Yunnan, only the Miao people can do voodoo. Of course, not all Miao people can do it! Only a small number of people can do it, and this A small number of people generally live in isolated villages and do not interact with others!" Yang Ming looked at Zhang Bin and couldn't help but feel a little funny: "Besides, these people's clan has regulations that do not allow people to treat others. It’s just random people who have nothing to do with it!”
"Damn, I still think this is weird enough, no, I've decided!" Zhang Bin suddenly shouted.
"Have you decided? What have you decided?" Yang Ming thought he had decided not to hang out with girls here.
"I have decided that before dating a girl, I need to check her ID card to see if she is from an ethnic minority!" Zhang Bin said.
"..." Yang Ming was speechless. Is it such an exaggeration? He was just learning and practicing, just talking casually.
That night, Yang Ming slept extremely soundly. Although the environment was changed, Yang Ming felt very peaceful. Because, he finally found a place where he can use his strengths! Even if you're not sure, at least give it a try.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, Zhang Jiefang called Wu Cai and took Zhang Bin and Yang Ming to Tengchong, Yunnan, which is one of the main jade distribution centers in the country.
However, this can only be regarded as a trivial matter, because jewelers with good means no longer pick up goods in Tengchong, but go directly to Yangon to pick up goods. Someone like Wu Cai just picks up goods directly in Yangon and then returns to China to sell them. hand and earn a middle price difference.
