Chapter 269 Enthusiasm
Because Lin Baoqing drove over by himself, Su Yalan knew that the two of them would definitely run away alone, so she greeted Song Yi in advance, "Don't play too crazy, remember to go home for dinner tonight. By the way, bring your sister Xiaorou here too. Grandma likes her very much."
Song Yilian replied that he would definitely go home for dinner. After dealing with Su Yalan, he turned around and asked Lin Baoqing, "Has Xiaorou returned to the East China Sea?"
Lin Baoqing nodded and said, "I came back a few days ago. I originally wanted to bring her over to pick you up, but she was shy. She said that there were more people coming to pick you up, so she would not be the only one. Now, the club is busy now, and she will help take care of her."
Song Yi held her little hand, "Thank you for your hard work during this period. If the club is officially opened, I'm afraid you will still have to be busy."
"It's better to be busy, otherwise I don't know how to pass the time, and you are often not in the East China Sea." Although Lin Baoqing was always generous, he still had some resentment in his tone.
Song Yi understood her little thoughts, so he comforted her softly and said, "It's tiring to run around outside. When you go back to the East China Sea, you can take a good breath with Baoqing."
"Don't you have someone to accompany you outside?" Lin Baoqing asked him playfully, trying not to make him look too petty.
"I met her on the plane." Song Yi replied, thinking that this was not a lie. His ability to change the topic was also very strong, and he immediately said, "Let's go to the club first. Have Baoqing found any good things in the ghost market during this period?"
Lin Baoqing didn't think much about it, with a small showing off smile on his face. "Everyone went, but he didn't get much, just a piece of Qianlong porcelain and Wu Changshuo's painting."
"Wow, Baoqing's gains are quite good! His vision is getting stronger and stronger. I have to look back and let me appreciate it carefully." Song Yi shouted exaggeratedly, "It's getting harder to buy Taobao in the ghost market now. If you want to collect it, in addition to your vision and luck, your strong strength is the most important factor."
Lin Baoqing nodded deeply. Her family has always been a collection, so she naturally knows the truth the most.
Song Yi naturally had no intention of following the large army. Donghai was everyone's territory. He didn't need to take care of him specifically, so he took Lin Baoqing to live the two of them. As for He Jian, Song Yi didn't want him to talk to Lin Baoqing more now.
He Jian has been used to being wild outside for a long time, and his parents are not worried about him. Anyway, he has called to report safety, so there is no need to come to pick him up. He Jian was thinking about whether to go to Song Yi to take a ride as a light or something, but Su Yalan stopped him, "He Jian, take our car back. By the way, tell me about the situation of your trip to Myanmar. That boy Song Yi has no shape all day long, and he is hiding his words. You won't be like this!"
He Jian quickly said no. He thought to himself that Song Yi, you just want to be blessed!
Su Yalan smiled and nodded, very satisfied with his performance. "Well, okay. You can wait a moment."
He Jian naturally obeyed the order. After Su Yalan and Song Mingjie arranged the masters of the inspection team, the guilty Song Yi had already pulled Lin Baoqing away. There was no need for Su Yalan and the others to stay at the airport for a long time, so He Jian got into their Mercedes-Benz and returned to the city together.
"Tell me, what happened to Chen Yingxue who got off the plane with you?" Su Yalan was most concerned about this issue, so she asked He Jian as soon as she came.
He Jian could only smile bitterly at this, "Didn't Song Yi tell you?"
Su Yalan laughed and scolded, "Does he have the courage to say it? Tell me the whole story carefully, don't worry, if Song Yi dares to ask you for trouble, I will break his leg."
He Jian could only say sarcastic to Song Yi at this time. Song Yi did not ask him to keep it secret anyway. He secretly put Chen Yingxue on the plane in the most concise language. She only appeared in front of everyone after the plane took off. The master of the inspection team behind did not want to delay her trip, and agreed to describe the story of her going to Myanmar with the group. He also left himself clear, "I don't know much about the specific situation after they arrived in Myanmar. Chen Yingxue followed them to the Jade Mine. I was alone in the Special Administrative Region to investigate the timber resources. We will return to the East China Sea together after their inspection."
Su Yalan was so angry that she was extremely fierce about this. "Song Yi, this guy, is willing to be angry to death. His plan was jingling, and it was so happy to hold our faces left and right, but where did we put our old faces? How do we explain to Baoqing's parents?"
He Jian remained silent and did not make any statement.
"You must talk about him well tonight!" Song Mingjie agreed. He didn't dare to say anything good to Song Yi, otherwise he would burn himself to the fire of war and be angry Su Yalan came. You men are the same. If you have money, you will become bad and you will have few good things. That's not an injustice.
However, when Song Mingjie thought of the expressions of Chen Ruiyun and his wife just now, he felt secretly funny. No wonder they dared not speak out.
"Does Baoqing know that Chen Yingxue went to Myanmar with him?" Su Yalan asked He Jian again.
He Jian couldn't explain clearly, and Su Yalan sneered again, "This guy, he really thought this matter could be hidden! When he came back to see him in the evening, how could I deal with him."
The two men He Jian and Song Mingjie suddenly shuddered. It would be impossible to get this matter if it falls on them, but Song Yi is different. This guy is very bold, it depends on how he will deal with it at night.
Su Yalan asked He Jian about some other details. With her strong aura, He Jian did not dare to hide it. He said whatever he had. Anyway, it was just Song Yi's little trouble.
Afterwards, He Jian felt a little sorry for Song Yi. After returning home, he called Song Yi, but he didn't care that Song Yi was playing kissing games with Lin Baoqing in the car at this time, and only reminded him to be mentally prepared for the storm.
Song Yi thanked him for his kindness, but he also knew that this matter would be faced sooner or later. However, he had adopted the method of dragging the word before, and he could drag it for a while. However, if he couldn't drag it on now, it would be better to be prepared for my mother to get angry.
Fortunately, Lin Baoqing was infatuated at this time. Although Song Yi, a veteran of the love scene, did not play with the car, it also made her passionately burn.
After being disturbed by He Jian, the good things disappeared, and Song Yi took Lin Baoqing straight to the Pinxiang Club.
After this period of active preparation, Pinxiang Club has been fully prepared for business.
Song Yi and the others do not expect that there will be many members entering and exporting the Pinxiang Club every day during the official business period, but in the early stage of opening, there will definitely be no fewer friends to support them. Not to mention Song Yi, who has a wide range of friends, just using the Lin family’s connections in the circle, it will be quite lively and beautiful together.
Of course, members who join the Pinxiang Club also have conditions. They must be insiders or introduced by acquaintances to join. Then the membership fee is 100,000 yuan per person and the annual fee is 100,000 yuan. As the saying goes, "There are great scholars in talking and laughing, but no white people can communicate with each other."
Compared with other private clubs, the Pinxiang Club has a relatively low threshold, but its style is not low at all. Although ordinary people can also sing incense and spread the fragrance culture, the cost of all kinds of spices collected by Lin Baoqing is very high and the value is even more immeasurable. It is not an exaggeration to say that Pinxiang is just a burning money. Those who do not have some strength are reluctant to spend money, and they really dare not come easily.
Otherwise, it will cost hundreds or thousands of yuan to light a high-quality incense, which will definitely make you feel painful.
The club is located in a quiet alley, and it opens the thick and quaint door. It is full of ancient colors, both gardens and buildings. They are all very charming. In addition, the waiter in ancient costumes can easily make people feel like they missed another one.
Qiao Yurou is a senior executive of the club. She doesn't have to wear uniforms like ordinary waiters. She wears a white dress, fluttering, simple but not simple, making her temperament more pure and charming.
Song Yi smiled and asked Lin Baoqing who was holding his arm beside him, "Oh, Baoqing, where did you find the little fairy? If you have such a fairy in charge, are you afraid that our club will not be popular?"
"Brother Song Yi knew to make fun of others..." Qiao Yurou smiled slightly, and two cute dimples suddenly appeared on her face.
"So it's our sister Xiaorou. She's really like a fairy. It's all my fault that I've been with the savages for a while, and I'm dazzled when I see the beauty." Song Yi continued to tease her, "By the way, I'm here with a mission. My mother told us to go home for dinner together in the evening, and Xiaorou will not be allowed to escape at that time."
"I won't know!" Qiao Yurou said with a pout, "Aren't I busy helping Sister Baoqing?"
"Oh, it's not me who said you. When I'm not at home, Xiaorou, you should spend more time with my grandmother and the others. They love you very much..." Song Yi said in a nagging manner.
Qiao Yurou listened to this many times and quickly replied, "Okay, OK, I remember..."
Song Yi gently touched her hair, "Well, you're so good!"
"You can't be good!" Qiao Yurou replied playfully.
Seeing the two of them, Lin Baoqing covered her mouth and laughed secretly. She also knew that Qiao Yurou's shyness was so difficult to ask her to go to Song Yi's house on her own initiative. Even if she called her, she would either have an excuse to study or help at the club.
Then, Lin Baoqing and Qiao Yurou reported to him about the club's work during this period. Song Yi's expectations for the club are actually not too high. At least, it is not expected that it will make a profit. It would be quite good to maintain basic operations without losing money. When I bought this house with gardens, it was also for the sake of future value-addedness. The club is also a place to communicate with everyone and get to know more people and relationships.
But Lin Baoqing was quite confident. She also knew that relying so much membership fees and annual fees alone would definitely not be enough to cover the club's expenses. So, she helped her father manage the shop since she was a child, and she took the initiative to other aspects. Most of the collections displayed in the club are genuine, and if a member really likes them, they can be transferred. She has long seen it thoroughly and is a collection! It is impossible to just enter and leave. Unless you have a strong capital to maintain it, you will still communicate with other collectors.
In addition, as the theme product of Pinxiang Club, selling various agarwood and agarwood products can also bring her some income.
Song Yi, her, He Jian and others worked hard to collect agarwood in Hainan and other places. Isn’t that just for this?
As for the interpersonal communication that Song Yi values the most, the communication in the club is the most suitable. However, there are plenty of **s here. Speaking of which, it is much safer and more secretive than those five-star hotels.
For example, communication activities in the collection circle can be displayed and completed transactions here, and there is no need to worry about being discovered.
It was almost lunch order. A few people who were hungry went to the club's restaurant for dinner.
Lin Baoqing is very smart in business and knows that such a club is not only the direction of making money, but also symbolizes the strength of a club. She also spent a lot of effort on this. Not only did she hire a famous chef from Donghai to come to the chef with her connections, but the ingredients she used were also carefully selected. At this time, there were not so many pesticides and hormones in vegetables, fruits and melons, and in the face of delicious food, Song Yi, the big eater, tasted very happy.
In Lin Baoqing's plan, in addition to regular incense-tasting activities, the club will also regularly hold some other activities, such as outdoor adventures, mountaineering, boating, golf, etc.
Of course, it is also necessary to ask Song Yi, the **oss, to discuss various future situations, market trends and so on with the members. Not only did she see it, but other friends around her also knew that Song Yi had a very good vision, especially in investment.
"On the golf course, I have contacted Haiyi Golf Course by the sea. The price is very suitable. There are beaches nearby, and the leisure looks good." Lin Baoqing also said with some regret, "It's a pity that I don't know how to play golf."
"That doesn't matter. Everyone has gone from knowing how to master it. Let's go play together the next day. I found that Baoqing is becoming more and more powerful!" Song Yi couldn't help but exclaim.
Qiao Yurou nodded from the side, "Sister Baoqing is quite powerful!"
"The real amazing one is here!" Lin Baoqing looked at Song Yi and smiled. Then he squeezed his fist tightly, "I'm much worse than him, but I will try my best to catch up with him."
Qiao Yurou's head was like a chicken pecking at rice. "I heard from my godmother that Brother Song Yi bought a lot of jade wool materials, right?"
Song Yi smiled modestly, "Actually, it's not realistic to completely monopolize the jade wool market, so I'll do my best! By the way, when I went to Myanmar, I also brought some other jewelry and jade samples back, but I have to wait to be transported with the jade wool."
"What kind of gems are they?" Qiao Yurou was very interested in this because she mainly focuses on jewelry design.
"Red sapphires, tourmalines, and amber are all given by Commander Ding. They will carry out large-scale mining in the future. I said this, I will give you a vaccination first, and then it will be the time to test your creativity!
Qiao Yurou clenched her fists as Lin Baoqing, and made her bold statement, "I will try my best to keep up with your pace."
Seeing her cute appearance, Lin Baoqing and Song Yi laughed. Lin Baoqing also encouraged Qiao Yurou and said, "As the scale of the jewelry company gradually expands, more and more jewelry products are needed, among which jewelry design is crucial. I believe Xiaorou can do the best."
Qiao Yurou nodded and thanked her, and said that she would work harder and asked Song Yi to give her more advice. She also said that the most important thing at the moment is to help Lin Baoqing do a good job in the Pinxiang Club.
Lin Baoqing also re-staged the topic that he hadn't finished talking about just now, "There is basically no problem with golf. What I am thinking about is how to organize other activities such as adventure rowing and whether to formulate a corresponding charter. This is also an important factor in attracting members to join!"
Qiao Yurou said, "I remember Brother Song Yi, didn't you say you wanted to salvage the treasure under the sea before? You can use this as part of the club's adventure. Maybe there is agarwood under the sea!"
"Sister Xiaorou has a very good idea! I'm worried that I can't find any adventure projects!" Lin Baoqing happily held Qiao Yurou's hand, "Salvage of treasures under the sea is a very exciting project. In comparison, other adventure projects are much weaker! Song Yi, what do you think?"
Song Yi replied, "It's not impossible, it's just that there are risks at sea. Moreover, if we want to salvage, it's basically in the waters of other countries. The distance is relatively long, so it's not that easy to organize."
Lin Baoqing was full of confidence and became happier the more he said. "Just leave it to me to organize. I also want to see how to salvage the treasure under the sea in person! As long as the members stay on the boat with peace of mind, their activities will not affect the salvage action. Join our club and you can also enjoy the right to purchase these salvage items first, which is something that others cannot enjoy, and it is also a good selling point."
Song Yi smiled and said, "You think a lot!"
Lin Baoqing said excitedly, "That's it! We won't allow others to participate in the salvage operation. Even if they follow them with a stern face, they won't guarantee their safety. Also, Song Yi, don't you say you want to buy a yacht? Then drive back to the East China Sea to pick you up!"
"Yachts are just toys, they can't do it if they really travel far away." Song Yi broke her fantasy.
Lin Baoqing did not give up, "It's always okay to go out to sea to play! Holding a small party, everyone plays cards, mahjong, blows the sea breeze, and basks in the sun, is something that ordinary people cannot enjoy. Join our Pinxiang Club and enjoy these benefits. By the way, Song Yi, are you determined to buy it? If not, I will be embarrassed to promote it like this again!"
Song Yi smiled and said, "I heard from Baoqing that you said, there are so many benefits, so how can I not buy it?"
Lin Baoqing smiled sweetly, "Then I will do my best to plan, Song Yi and Xiaorou, please help me see if there are any shortcomings, we will improve it as soon as possible."
Seeing her so enthusiastic and high-spirited, Song Yi and Qiao Yurou naturally have no reason to refuse. (To be continued...)
