"Brother Hu, don't laugh at me. I'm just lucky. I don't have much experience in this vein..."
Zhuang Rui smiled. He knew his own affairs. The jade mine in Xinjiang was discovered purely by luck.
To say this, it really depends on some luck, otherwise, the mineral vein in Yiniugou is not buried deep, but for thousands of years, no one has thought that there is a mineral vein hidden at the mouth of the river.
"Haha, you don't have to be modest. The Jade Prince in China has high praise for you. Maybe if you take a look at my new mine, you can really find out the problems..."
Although Hu Rong is a jade tycoon in Myanmar, he is also a jewelry designer and has many contacts with nephrite. He is very familiar with Mr. Adila from Xinjiang. A few days ago, he heard Zhuang Rui say that he had jade veins in Xinjiang.
, he asked Adila about Zhuang Rui. Hu Rong did not expect that Zhuang Rui, who was about to become a relative with him, not only had a profound background in the mainland, but also had extraordinary talents.
"Oh? Brother Hu, what happened to your new mine?"
Zhuang Rui was a little curious. The Myanmar Ministry of Mines now has very strict restrictions on the application and mining of jade mines. It can be said that as long as you can apply, you will own a golden mountain. But looking at Hu Rong, he seems to be very concerned about his new mine.
Not very satisfied.
"Don't mention it, I spent nearly 10 million euros on the initial exploration investment, but after mining, the rough stone produced is not good, and the output is very small. It is most likely a waste vein..."
The waste mine that Hu Rong refers to refers to the jadeite that was initially formed in the original vein. However, due to changes in the earth's crust, the environment in which the jadeite was produced changed. The jadeite that was about to form jadeite changed.
In such veins, there may be a very small number of jadeite that have completed the transformation, but most of them are just stones, with a little color on them at most.
This kind of jade cannot be called jade, it can barely be regarded as a kind of Burmese jade. Compared with jade, its price is very different. If the new mine invested by Hu Rong is really a waste mine, the loss will be huge.
"Haha, let's do another reconnaissance. Maybe we didn't choose the right location. Brother Hu, don't worry..."
Zhuang Rui really didn't have any research on this, so he could only comfort Hu Rong, saying that he was not very interested in jade mines. The reason why he agreed to go to the Myitkyina area this time was just for the treasure map.
Although the open and hidden bids for Myanmar's public offering have all ended, the opening of the hidden bids, which is even more nerve-wracking and breathless, has officially begun today. Compared with the bidding, the opening of the bids is
That moment is a test of whether one's heart is strong.
In previous Myanmar public auctions, some people fainted and died while selecting wool under the scorching sun, and some people were too excited and suffered cerebral hemorrhage during the bidding opening. Various real-life cases that have happened show that without a strong heart, thinking
It's best to take your time when playing stone gambling.
The bidding was over, but everyone still got up early in the morning and rushed to the Myanmar Jade Trading Center. At this time, the original woolen area had been completely sealed off. There were almost three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry. Even the jade
When the staff of the trading center enters, they are checked several times by the soldiers.
The original open-bid bidding site has now become a secret-bid opening site. At this time, the hall has been renovated overnight. All the partitions that separated the hall have been removed. Although the chairs are still there,
All the bidders above have been put away, and the ten auction halls have turned into a spacious auditorium that can accommodate about two thousand people.
However, the ten huge electronic screens are still preserved on the four walls. The businessmen participating in the Myanmar public auction do not need to squeeze to the front to see on these screens whether the rough stones they have invested have won the bid.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the bid numbers to be issued today and the winning bidder's number will be scrolled on the big screen.
"Xiao Rui, how are you? Are you nervous?"
It was just after eight o'clock at this time, and the bidding opening scene was already crowded and bustling. Although the bidding was said to be over, the results had not come out, and no one could really relax. Their current mood was like that of students taking the college entrance examination.
After that, wait for the final test results to come out.
"It's okay, Uncle Qin, the bids I put in are all those with poor skin performance, so there won't be too many people competing..."
Zhuang Rui smiled and felt a little proud. If he wanted to say who gained the most from the Burmese public sale, it was definitely him. Counting Qin Haoran's money to buy the two pieces of red jade, Zhuang Rui invested a total of nearly
400 million RMB seems to be a lot, but if he hoards those wool materials for a few years and then sells them, Zhuang Rui is confident that the value will increase to about 3 billion RMB.
Many friends may not understand, if you don’t have your own jewelry store, why do you want to sell it? In fact, like Zhuang Rui’s Qin Ruilin in Beijing, the annual sales of jade jewelry is only about 30 million, accounting for 10% of all jewelry sales.
At 30%, the amount of jade raw materials used is not large.
Moreover, the sales of jade jewelry must go through a cycle. It does not mean that you can carve the raw materials into jewelry and put them in the store and sell them immediately. Especially the top-quality jade, which has such a sky-high price, is not something that ordinary people can afford, but
Once sold, the profit will be considerable, a bit like an antique store that does not open for three years and lasts for three years after opening.
Moreover, objects carved from top-quality jadeite must maintain their uniqueness. Things are more valuable when they are rare, so that they can be sold at sky-high prices. Otherwise, if more than a dozen pieces come out at a time, they will only be sold at a cabbage price. Therefore, the dealer
Rui had no intention of extracting all the jade materials and carving them into jewelry.
If you take out any piece of the twenty pieces of wool, it will be enough for Qin Ruilin to use for a year and a half. If it is made of glass material, it will be enough to put out three or five items for sale every year. In this way
Not only can it guarantee the reputation of Qin Ruilin's high-end jewelry, but it can also maximize the price of the jewelry.
The reason why Zhuang Rui took so many pieces of material at once was because he wanted to invest in hoarding jadeite. It was clear that it was jadeite, not rough stone. Unlike those wool merchants, even if Zhuang Rui sold it in the future, he would extract the jadeite inside and sell it instead of selling it.
It will be sold at a rough price.
"It's time, it's starting, it's about to start..."
While Zhuang Rui and a group of people were chatting, it was already nine o'clock in the morning. Those who were sitting on the chairs with their eyes closed and concentrating all stood up and rushed towards the various display screens with nervous and excited expressions on their faces.
After all, no one dares to say that they can definitely win the bid before the bid is opened. Of course, Mr. Zhuang is an exception.
"The secret bidding opening for the 2005 Yangon Jade Public Market is about to begin. Please pay attention to all bidders. If you win the bid, please bring your ID and go to the window to sign the "Bid Winning Contract". Please pay attention to all bidders..."
With one minute left before the bid opening, the hall echoed with the winning bid reminders from the organizing committee staff, but not many people paid attention to them. Their eyes were fixed on the big screens.
Suddenly, the big screen lit up, and a string of numbers was displayed on it, "Bid No. 3469, winning bid price: 390,000 euros, winning bid number: xxxxxxx", this string of red numbers, on the big screen with a black background, was extremely
It was conspicuous. After about five seconds, it scrolled up one grid, and then another set of winning numbers appeared below.
"Why isn't it No. 1?"
Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that the hidden bids started from No. 1 and went to the back. Who knew that the number that appeared on the first block was actually 3469. There was no trace of the pattern of the opening of the bids.
"Haha, this is how Myanmar's public bidding works. The staff inputs the final bid into the computer, and it is randomly assigned by the computer, not in the order of the numbers. However, only about 20,000 bids can be issued every day.
, that is to say, if you like the mark of the rough stone, if it is less than 20,000, you will be here today, and maybe it will be opened sometime..."
Qin Haoran has participated in many Myanmar jade auctions and is very familiar with the bidding method. After seeing Zhuang Rui's stunned expression, he explained it to him.
Twenty thousand bids can be issued every day. This workload is quite large. All Myanmar Organizing Committee staff open bids overnight. Even now, there are still thousands of organizing committee staff, still
The woolen fabrics area was busy, but after holding public auctions for so many years, they were all quite experienced. Although they were busy, the bid opening process was carried out in an orderly manner.
"Then don't you have to stay here today?"
Zhuang Rui was a little depressed. Although the auditorium was not small, thousands of people were crowded inside. Some were smoking and some were chatting. The smell was really not very good. However, the yellow jade that Zhuang Rui voted for was also marked between two
Within ten thousand, although he already knew that he would definitely win the bid, Zhuang Rui was always a little unsure without seeing it with his own eyes.
"No need. If you feel bored, you can go out for a walk or go back to the hotel..."
After hearing Qin Haoran's words, Zhuang Rui knew that before the hidden bid was opened, you were not allowed to check whether you had won the bid, but after the bid was opened every day, you could go to the window with your admission ticket and passport to check your bid.
Whether the woolen material wins the bid or not, it doesn't matter here.
However, after being nervous for 10 days, I believe that no one is willing to give up knowing the bottom of the bid at the first time. Not to mention that the air is just a little bad now. Even if the bidding opening place is next to the cesspool, I am afraid no one is willing to leave.
