73. Chapter 73
Wu Longli was extremely polite. After lunch, he sent the five of them down the mountain. He made an appointment to have a drink next time, and then turned around and went back. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
Ding Xiaobu and the others specially found someone to order a batch of goods from Laokeng this time for the Wuzhou Jewelry Store's business.
Laokeng is one of the first pit owners to mine in the Wuyou River. Not only do they now own the mining rights of the Wuyou River, but they also have the best location on the surrounding hills. If
If you want to find the best source of goods, you almost have to look for these old traps.
Ding Xiaobu and the others did not stop when they came down the mountain. They rushed straight to the old pit without stopping.
There are ten pieces of jewelry from Wuzhou Jewelry Store this time, and the price is set at 10 million, which means each piece is about 1 million, and the supply cannot be less than 500,000 per piece.
Although it is not a big deal for jadeite, good varieties can also be purchased elsewhere. However, in order to make Wuzhou Jewelry Store completely confident in handing over the future business to them, they still made this arrangement.
It's not too far away, just twenty or thirty minutes away. There is a post at the door, and there are guards with live ammunition. It seems to have an inseparable relationship with the local military.
"We are here to purchase jade, and we have already made an appointment."
The hotel staff greeted the guards in Burmese, and Ding Xiaobu told him in English. What he told the guards was quite complicated.
It took you a long time to get through the phone call of the person Li Gen was looking for, and then he was let in.
There is a large open space inside, where you can drive, and mining workers and mine carts pass by from time to time. You can almost see the edges at a glance, and the scene is huge. There are all kinds of stones everywhere, and you can tell that there is a lot of business going on.
big.
Li Gen was in the parts business and had never been here before. He had to look up and sigh, this is the real Wuyou River mining field.
The hotel staff did not forget to introduce: "This is one of the largest mining factories in Myanmar. The earliest owner of the mine was named Hpakant, so the mine was later renamed Pakant. The current mine
The Lord is his great-grandson and the richest man in northern Myanmar.
He has a good relationship with the military and the government, and his people are also good. People in the nearby villages are favored by them, and the temples nearby were also built by him. Are you looking for him? I haven't seen him yet.
Where is I!"
Naturally, for a business of five million yuan, you don’t need to go to the mine owner here, you only need to go to a small leader under him. Furthermore, their relationship has not reached that point yet, so they can only laugh and say: "Our business is small, and other mine owners
If you don’t like it, just find the little boss below.”
"oh."
He was a little disappointed. It seemed that the mine owner should be a figure like a local emperor. Especially at this time, there were sentries carrying rifles passing by. It reminded people of some of the activities when they went to the Golden Triangle to trade drugs. What a human being.
Yes, the scenery is right, but the objects are wrong.
There was a lot of laughter.
After that, the jeep drove along and found the address mentioned by the guard at the door. The man was already waiting at the door.
Li Gen didn't know the other person, he was just introduced by a friend. After getting off the car, he asked the hotel staff to inquire about him. After confirmation, they shook hands with each other.
Then he was introduced into the simple room behind him.
Li Gen said that it was quite troublesome for Ding Xiaobu to translate into English and the hotel staff to translate into Burmese. They didn’t have so many polite words and said straightforwardly: "I am Li Gen, the Chinese who placed the order, the goods."
Where?"
This was their territory, and he felt relieved. He took out a prepared black cloth bag from his body and carefully poured it on the table, containing ten fine jadeite pieces.
According to the requirements, three red emeralds, brown with reddish color and red mist, are not as exquisite as cockscomb red, and are only as big as the belly of a finger, but they are already very rare. They can be made into pendants and rings.
It's definitely not cheap. After checking it out, it met their requirements, and everyone smiled.
After that, I continued to check, and there were five yellow and brown jadeite pieces. They were not big, and they were used for making small jewelry, but they were rare and expensive, and they were also very good.
The remaining two ice jadeites were a little unsatisfactory and a little small. With Ding Xiaobu and Li Gen's eyesight, no matter how they cut, they couldn't agree with the production requirements. They couldn't help but frown a little and looked at each other.
Ding Xiaobu was the one who made the decision. He thought about it and said, "Tell him, these two pieces of money don't meet the requirements, but we both want them, and the price is as agreed in advance, five million yuan in total. But we want
Find two more pieces of ice jade that are larger than this, about four centimeters long and two centimeters wide. Ask him if he has them? The sooner the better."
After translating, the man said a series of words, seemingly expressing some opinions, but the final result was that it was OK, but he also proposed a price, "He said it was OK, but the price cannot be the same as the original one. It must be eighty."
In case of one yuan. He also said that it was already a lot of trouble for him to help you find these ten yuan, and you wanted it so urgently that you didn't even pay the deposit. If it weren't for the sake of his friends, he wouldn't do it with you at all.
Therefore, the price cannot be reduced, it is only 800,000, and I will definitely guarantee your satisfaction. If you come here tomorrow at this time, you can pick up the goods. If you want it, you can take it, or if you don’t want it, forget it."
At first glance, he was completely different from Wu Longli. He was obviously blackmailing Ding Xiaobu and the others. He deliberately found two unqualified people and saw that they were anxious, so he added more money.
Ding Xiaobu, Li Gen, Wang Shan and the others had already seen the secret behind this, but they just hadn't discovered it just now. You know, this is his territory, and he shouldn't go too far if he's waiting with a gun on guard.
This was also the reason why Ding Xiaobu wanted to place this batch of goods in the first place. He wanted him to help quickly and make things smoother. But unexpectedly, this man opened his mouth and directly asked for 800,000 yuan, which made the three of them frown.
Li Gen quickly called his friend and explained the situation, "I can get the things, but the person you are looking for is too unreliable. Eight hundred thousand pieces of ice jade, how big should he be?"
Ah, we want it to be four centimeters long and wide on both sides. No matter how good the condition is, we can't ask for a price.
It's good now, the price of land has increased, and this is the Wuyou River. I think he is crazy because of poverty."
This friend of his is the owner of a jade shop in Beijing. He has been friends with Li Gen for more than ten years, but his business is different. He mainly deals in high-quality jade, and Li Gen mostly sells pieces, so he hired him.
He didn't expect that it would be like this, so he hung up quickly and called the seller.
The seller started chattering into the phone, and the hotel staff began to translate in a low voice. It seemed that Li Gen's friend was interceding with him.
And he seemed to have thought of this trick because he was in trouble. Of course, it may also be a made-up reason. Anyway, he was preparing to come back to life and teach Ding Xiaobu and others a lesson in Myanmar.
But it worked in the end, and the price was reduced to 650,000 yuan, and the delivery would be delivered tomorrow. Although I was a little unhappy, it was finally done. Then I remitted the initial 5 million yuan to him.
They agreed to come back at this time tomorrow to pick up the two pieces. The group collected the ten pieces of jade and left.
After calculating the time, I went to Kong Qingbin's appointment tonight, and then came here to pick up the goods tomorrow. I rushed back and arrived in time, so I didn't think much about it and left Pagan.
However, at the door, I met a group of people, three off-road vehicles, one Land Rover, and two Overlords. Although they didn't look very good, they were considered top-notch luxury cars in Myanmar.
The most eye-catching thing is that when this group of people came in, they didn't even get out of the car or say anything. As soon as the guards came over and saw that it was them, they quickly moved the fence away.
Then Ding Xiaobu and the others saw clearly the people in the car. They all had yellow skin and black glasses.
Li Gen also knew one of them, so he couldn't help but introduce him: "I've seen the man in the Land Rover. He belongs to the young master of Zhizhentang in Beijing. It seems that he should be here to purchase jade. This attitude is really awesome."
Zhi Zhen Tang is now the most famous antique shop among Chinese people. Its business is spread all over the country, at home and abroad, and almost no one can match it.
Of course, there is He Xin Zhai in the south, Shanghai, and the Pearl River Delta area where you can learn both short and long ways, but it is only in these areas. In other places, it is still difficult for He Xin Zhai to compete with Zhi Zhen Tang. It is okay.
Understand why they are so welcomed in Myanmar.
When I think about how a few people just spent a long time entering the door, and then were ripped off by a small boss, I couldn't help but feel helpless. It's really incomparable.
When Ding Xiaobu arrived, he was calm and laughed loudly: "Okay, don't think too much, let's do it step by step, maybe in a few years we can be politely welcomed when we come."
Then everyone started laughing, and as the time went back and forth, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, so they didn't stay any longer and went straight to the address given by Kong Qingbin.
The journey was extremely smooth, and he was not in a hurry anymore. When he passed by a very spectacular temple, Kou Sijie felt the urge to pay homage again, and suggested: "Brother Xiaobu, Uncle Li, Uncle Wang, we are going so smoothly today.
It’s almost done, or let’s go to the temple to pay our respects.”
They came on an extremely tight schedule this time, so they were naturally a little tired. When they heard what she said, and saw that the temple was right in front of them, and time allowed, they became interested.
The hotel staff also quickly introduced: "That temple is the largest temple in Myitkyina, called Xinggu Temple. It is said that it was built by you Chinese at the beginning, and then it gradually became like this. If you want to go, I will
Drive the car over."
Ding Xiaobu nodded and said, "Okay, let's go over and have a look."
The hotel staff quickly changed lanes and headed up the mountain. There were many monks along the way, and there were also some ascetics who bowed and kowtowed as they walked up the mountain. They looked a bit nondescript in their cars.
The young woman suggested: "Since we are here, we have enough time, why don't we park the car and walk up."
After riding in the car for a day, my buttocks were a little numb, and the others didn't have any objections. They found a random place to park the car and started strolling towards Xinggu Temple.
The scenery of Myanmar is displayed along the way, which is a feast for the eyes, but it is also a pity that they have just wasted their time. They must have missed a lot of scenery along the way.
