Today's Shen's Jewelry can hardly compete head-on with Liu's Jewelry, and it is even difficult for them to protect themselves. Facing Liu Xiangnan's demonstration, Shen Yuxuan can only endure it silently.
"Sister Shen, this Liu Xiangnan is quite capable and shrewd." Yang Qi looked at Shen Yuxuan beside him and said.
"That's true." Although they were business rivals of the Liu family, even Shen Yuxuan had to admit that Liu Xiangnan was indeed not comparable to ordinary people.
In fact, a few years ago, the largest jade jewelry dealer in Qingchuan Province was Shen's, and Liu's Jewelry was only the second. However, with Liu Xiangnan's appointment to Shen's Jewelry, Liu's Jewelry developed rapidly and showed signs of catching up with Shen's Jewelry. At this time, the head of Shen's Jewelry suddenly fell seriously ill. Although Shen Yuxuan was capable, she was lucky to be able to maintain her own business under Shen's Jewelry, and there was no possibility of any development.
Under the leadership of Liu Xiangnan, Liu's Jewelry developed rapidly, catching up with and even surpassing Shen's Jewelry. At that time, the second son of the Liu family was suddenly promoted to deputy mayor. Liu Xiangnan then decisively took action against Shen's Jewelry, and the Shen's Jewelry, which had just stabilized, was immediately disrupted.
If it weren't for the support of its past foundation, any ordinary jade merchant would have closed down long ago. But even Shen's Jewelry is struggling under such circumstances.
"But Liu Xiangnan always does whatever it takes to do something. This kind of person may be successful for a while, but he won't be successful all his life!" Shen Yuxuan said coldly.
Hearing this, Yang Qi was stunned and nodded in his heart. Emperor Haoyang had lived for who knows how many years and had seen countless powerful people. Those who had truly achieved great success were definitely not the kind of people who would do anything to achieve their goals.
"Xiao Yang, you have to be careful. Liu Xiangnan is not as simple as he seems. As long as he still wants to annex the Shen family, he will definitely not attack me directly. But you are different." Shen Yuxuan looked at Yang Qi and said.
After experiencing the previous robbery incident, Shen Yuxuan has a clearer understanding of Liu Xiangnan's character. This man has done everything he can to take over the Shen family. Yang Qi, as the gambling stone consultant of Shen Jewelry, is definitely the person who stands in his way. Liu Xiangnan is likely to take action against Yang Qi.
"I'll be careful." Yang Qi nodded. He was not an ordinary person. Although he didn't have much experience, he had already felt a hint of hostility from Liu Xiangnan. Especially after knowing that Liu Xiangnan was so cunning, he became more alert.
Although he was alert, Yang Qi would not underestimate himself. With his current strength, unless Liu Xiangnan dared to use hot weapons, it would be impossible for him to be threatened.
Shen Yuxuan nodded slightly. She had seen Yang Qi's skills. Although she was a little worried that Liu Xiangnan would attack him, she was not too scared. If Liu Xiangnan asked someone to deal with Yang Qi, Liu Xiangnan himself would probably suffer in the end.
"This Yang Qi is not simple." Liu Xiangnan frowned.
"Mr. Liu, do you think too highly of this kid?" Wu Shan frowned. He hated Yang Qi so much after being ridiculed by him just now that he wanted to beat him up right away.
"This person can ignore my identity and talk freely. Most people can't do that. Moreover, he gives me a feeling that I can't see through him. I have a bad feeling in my heart." Liu Xiangnan said in a deep voice.
Liu Xiangnan's ability to lead Liu's Jewelry to where it is today is beyond doubt. His ability to judge people is definitely not bad, otherwise he would not have easily poached the gambling stone consultant who had worked at Shen's Jewelry for many years. But when facing Yang Qi, he felt that he couldn't see through him. This situation rarely happened to him.
“This…” Wu Shan frowned slightly. After hearing Liu Xiangnan’s words, he calmed down. He indeed found that Yang Qi seemed reckless, but after a confrontation, not only did he not gain any advantage, he actually didn’t understand Yang Qi at all.
"After all, he is just a young man in his twenties. How much ability can he have?" Wu Shan said with some embarrassment and disapproval.
"Mr. Wu seems to have forgotten that I am only a few years older than Yang Qi!" Liu Xiangnan said lightly.
"How can he compare with you, Young Master Liu?" Wu Shan said hurriedly. As the gambling stone consultant of Liu's Jewelry, he has personally seen Liu Xiangnan lead Liu's Jewelry to where it is today in the past few years. Even Liu Xiangnan's own gambling stone skills are very high, close to the level of gambling stone masters. I'm afraid he will become a new generation of gambling stone masters in the near future, but Liu Xiangnan rarely makes a move, and few people know about it.
"Don't underestimate anyone. We have been planning for so many years and we cannot afford to make any mistakes." Liu Xiangnan said seriously.
You have to know that the strength of Shen's Jewelry and Liu's Jewelry was not much different before. It is definitely not an easy thing to swallow an opponent with the same strength as yourself. Even though Shen's Jewelry is in danger now, Liu Xiangnan dare not relax at all. Once Shen's Jewelry recovers, all the efforts of the past few years will be in vain!
“Mr. Liu, how about I find someone…” At this moment, the tall man at the side said in a deep voice, with a hint of murderous intent on his face.
"Not for now. If you do those things too much, some clues will be left behind eventually." Liu Xiangnan shook his head slightly. Although Liu's Jewelry had taken actions against Shen's Jewelry's jadeite many times, they had always been very careful. After all, this kind of thing was a taboo in the circle. Once someone caught them, Liu's reputation would be ruined.
"Mr. Wu, don't be careless this time. According to the information we got, this kid is quite good at gambling on stones. I don't want the Shen family to have any chance of turning things around." Liu Xiangnan looked at Wu Shan and said.
"Don't worry, Mr. Liu. I will be careful." Wu Shan nodded, but he was a little disapproving in his heart. How much ability could a young man have? With his gambling stone skills, he could easily defeat the opponent.
After breakfast, the group set off for the wool exhibition venue.
"This rough material exhibition is a warm-up exhibition for the Myanmar Public Auction in China, with the aim of attracting more jade merchants to the Myanmar Public Auction." Shen Yuxuan introduced to Yang Qi in the car.
"Although it cannot be compared with the Myanmar public auction, this warm-up exhibition is also a big event in the jade industry. In addition to the fact that Yunnan is relatively close to Myanmar, the summer and autumn exhibitions in eastern Guangdong are considered relatively large-scale events. The transaction volume of each exhibition is in the hundreds of millions of dollars." Shen Yuxuan said.
During this period, Yang Qi also had some understanding of the jade market. Although hundreds of millions of dollars may not seem like a large amount, even the public auction in Myanmar is only about 5 billion. And the sales area of jade is not just in East Guangdong. Counting the more grand autumn exhibition, the transaction volume of the two exhibitions in East Guangdong alone exceeded 1 billion!
In other words, Yunnan has a geographical advantage, otherwise it might not be able to compete with eastern Guangdong.
"At this exhibition, we don't ask for a lot of jadeite to take away. The most important thing is that your jade gambling skills can be improved. This will make your trip worthwhile." Shen Yuxuan said.
"I understand." Yang Qi nodded slightly. Although he said this, he did not intend to return empty-handed. These jades were all treasures for cultivation. How could he let them go? (To be continued)
