However, no jewelry company can invest only for a piece of raw material, even if it may become the highest bidder. After all, a jewelry company cannot be built by relying on a piece of raw material.
The only ones who really participate in the competition for the bid winner are those jewelry companies with a market value of over 1 billion. In the past, Shen’s Jewelry would not have been able to compete for the bid winner, after all, the bid winner does not make much money, and what is more important is the improvement in reputation. At the level of Shen’s Jewelry, there is no need to compete for the bid winner.
But this time is different. If Shen's Jewelry, which is now suppressed by Liu's Jewelry, can win the bid in this public auction, it will be great news for Shen's Jewelry. Moreover, due to the shortage of raw materials, Shen's Jewelry is not short of working capital. Shen Yuxuan told him that Shen's Jewelry has prepared about 200 million yuan in funds this time, and can mobilize more if needed.
Yang Qi's bonus, including the Ninja Demon's, was less than 100 million, while Shen's Jewelry had prepared 200 million in working capital, and that was not all. If needed, 300 to 400 million in working capital could probably be gathered. This was something that other jewelry companies of the same level could not match Shen's Jewelry.
Looking at the two and a half pieces of betted raw materials that Shen Yuxuan mentioned, Yang Qi only took a quick look and realized that the quality of these two pieces of betted raw materials was even better than the piece of betted raw material in eastern Guangdong.
Thinking of this, Yang Qi couldn't help but look at the Yellowstone not far away.
The master felt Yang Qi's gaze, and Huang Shi just shook his head slightly. According to Liu Xiangnan's original instructions, Huang Shi was needed to help Shen Yuxuan win the bid.
But Huang Shi shook his head at this moment. Obviously, he didn't know which bid Liu Xiangnan wanted him to help Shen Yuxuan win.
In this public auction, the total amount of gambling stones with open and hidden bids alone exceeds four digits, which is several thousand pieces of rough stones. The information collected by Shen Yuxuan is only about the rough stones that are more promising in this public auction. Yang Qi still needs to observe carefully the condition of these rough stones.
However, the auction has not officially started yet, and these raw materials with open and hidden bids are still not accessible. Shen Yuxuan's instructions to Yang Qi and Huang Shi are just to memorize the information before the auction begins. After all, the raw materials in the information have all been preliminarily screened, so it will be more convenient to observe them at that time.
After dinner, everyone returned to their rooms. Because the public auction was about to start, jade merchants from all over the world came here. The night was more dangerous than the day. Even the organizers increased the patrol force at night to ensure that the public auction could proceed safely.
“Dong~Dong~”
Not long after Yang Qi returned to his residence, there was a knock on the door. He opened the door and saw Shen Yuxuan arriving at the door without him noticing.
"Sister Shen? Come in." Yang Qi quickly welcomed Shen Yuxuan into the room.
"I got the news. Liu Xiangnan arrived one day earlier than us. Besides the two gambling stone masters Wu Shan, there is another person beside him." Shen Yuxuan went straight to the point.
"One more person?" Yang Qi frowned slightly.
"I didn't find out who this person is, but Liu Xiangnan seems to be extremely respectful to him." Shen Yuxuan said in a deep voice.
"How old is this person?" Yang Qi asked hurriedly. Could it be that the person who could make Liu Xiangnan so respectful to him was Xue Qingyan mentioned by Huang Shi
"This person is about the same age as Liu Xiangnan." Shen Yuxuan said.
About the same age as Liu Xiangnan
Yang Qi was stunned. Although Huang Shi said that Xue Qingyan practiced internal martial arts, he should not be much younger than Huang Shi. Even if he looked younger because of internal martial arts, he could not be about the same age as Liu Xiangnan.
"If it's not Xue Qingyan, then who else could it be?" Yang Qi raised his eyebrows. Although he didn't know who this person following Liu Xiangnan was, he knew that this person's identity was definitely not simple. He might be one of Liu Xiangnan's backups!
"By the way, did Mr. Huang say anything to you?" Yang Qi looked at Shen Yuxuan and said.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuxuan smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"Mr. Huang didn't say anything to me, but I feel like he might be planning to sacrifice his reputation."
"Unfortunately, we can't help at all with this matter." Yang Qi said helplessly.
"What do you think about the two and a half pieces of raw materials being auctioned off in this auction?" Shen Yuxuan looked at Yang Qi and said seriously.
Shen Yuxuan was determined to win the bid. In this Myanmar public auction, she wanted not only a large amount of high-end jadeite, but also to make Shen's Jewelry famous again. Let others know that even if Liu's Jewelry suppressed them, they were still one of the best jadeite jewelers in Qingchuan Province.
"I have not seen the gambling stones in person, so I dare not make any comments. However, based on the description in the information, the two and a half pieces of gambling stones are of good quality and should not be too bad." Yang Qi thought for a while before speaking.
The information provided by Shen Yuxuan only contained photos. Even if the Jade King came, he would not be able to tell anything from a few photos. Yang Qi's most powerful method was to sense the heaven and earth energy in the rough material. If he did not see the rough material, he would not even be considered an ordinary gambling stone expert. He could only answer based on the introduction of the information.
Shen Yuxuan smiled bitterly and nodded. She was naturally aware of this, but she still hoped to get some advice from Yang Qi. After all, she learned about Liu Xiangnan's conspiracy too late, and although she made a lot of arrangements, it seemed a bit hasty after all.
Therefore, before Liu Xiangnan launched the attack, she naturally wanted to prepare more.
"In addition to Liu Xiangnan, we need to pay attention to several opponents this time. Among them are the jade family from Hong Kong, the Zhou family. The Wang family and the Qi family from eastern Guangdong and Yunnan. Finally, we must also be careful about the Liu family from the imperial capital. They are all our biggest competitors." Shen Yuxuan murmured.
Yang Qi knew about the Wang family in eastern Guangdong, because he had been there before and heard Li Yun and Shen Yuxuan mention it. If the Li family was the undisputed number one in raw materials in eastern Guangdong, then the Wang family was the number one in jadeite. The two families were not only old friends, but also had very close business dealings.
"The Zhou family has been dealing in jade for more than sixty years and has a deep foundation. They mainly deal in high-end jade and will never let go of the highest bidder." Seeing Yang Qi's puzzled expression, Shen Yuxuan couldn't help but continue, "The Qi family is a jade family in Yunnan and has a longer history than the Zhou family. However, due to some domestic reasons, although the Qi family is the largest jade jewellery dealer in the country, its foundation is not as good as the Zhou family. However, the former head of the Qi family was the eldest disciple of the Jade King, and the Jade King also took great care of the Qi family."
Hearing this, Yang Qi's face changed. It was not surprising that the Wang family had been elite jade for many years and had a deep foundation, but the Qi family actually had some relationship with the Jade King. These two jade jewelers were stronger than Shen's Jewelry. It was not so easy to get the bid! (To be continued)
