Yan Kai is now considered a celebrity at the Soapstone Fair. For no other reason than this. The highest price for a single stone transaction this year was created by him. Although it may not be maintained until the end of the fair, at least there are many
Everyone knows him.
The synonym of celebrity is the gorilla in the zoo. After the news about Yan Kai's solution to the stone spread, people who were originally selecting stones in the market also came out to watch. Everyone wanted to see what happened to this 600,000-yuan stone.
What kind of performance will there be?
It has only been about ten minutes since Lao Cao started polishing stones. With Zhuang Rui and others as the center, the stone-cutting site has been completely surrounded by people on three levels inside and outside, and there are people watching the excitement one after another.
Squeezing into the crowd, it was even more lively than the bloodstone trade in the market.
This reminded Zhuang Rui of a joke. There was a person who loved to watch the excitement. As long as there were people around him, he would crawl in. Once there was a car accident on the road. There were several circles of people inside and outside, but that person couldn't squeeze in.
Ah, then I became anxious and shouted loudly: "The one who was hit inside was my father, please give way..."
Upon hearing this, the crowd made a way for him, but after entering, the man was dumbfounded. It turned out that lying in a pool of blood was a mule pulling a cart.
"No color comes out after rubbing the stone on both sides, Xuan!"
"Yeah, looking at this, I'm afraid I'm going to collapse..."
"Probably not. Teacher Zhuang also took a fancy to this piece of material yesterday. As long as a small piece of blood comes out, he can still win back..."
There were a lot of discussions in the crowd, with different opinions, but the person who spoke last obviously didn't know that Zhuang Rui's bidding behavior yesterday was just a trap for Young Master Yan.
Lao Cao's forehead is now covered with sweat. Although this stone was not purchased with company funds, Lao Cao believes that when they arrive at Zhonghai, those unreasonable old ladies will definitely pass the blame.
onto him.
"Old Cao, hurry up and cut..."
Young Master Yan, a heartless guy, cannot understand Lao Cao's mood. He has already adjusted his mentality now.
The stone was broken. For Young Master Yan, it was just a loss of 600,000 RMB. When he went home and made a fuss, someone must have given this money to him. How could he have imagined that this matter could affect Lao Cao's job?
.
"Damn it, I'm unlucky to meet this idiot..."
After hearing Yan Kai's urging, Lao Cao cursed angrily in his mind, walked to the stone cutting machine, and turned on the power. The alloy gears immediately started spinning rapidly, flashing with dazzling light.
"Kaka...kaka..."
The harsh sound caused by the friction between gears and stones echoed in the ears of everyone present. As the gears gradually sank into the stones, white powder flew, making people's vision blurry.
"Crack... crack... snap!"
Along with the idling sound of the alloy gears, the sound of stones falling to the ground also reached everyone's ears, which made everyone hold their breath and wait nervously for the powdery stone chips to dissipate.
"Collapsed, no red, no color, nothing..."
"600,000 is wasted..."
"Oh, Teacher Zhuang also has his eyes open sometimes? But he is lucky, and he is saved from disaster..."
"This is normal. Teacher Zhuang is a person who appraises antiques and bets on jade. It is understandable that he is not good at bloodstone..."
Someone who was standing relatively close to the stone dissection machine immediately reported the result of the stone dissection. Not only did it not show chicken blood red, it didn’t even have any other background color. In other words, the stone bought for 600,000 yuan was as big as the stone.
There was no difference between the piles on the roadside, which completely ruined the game.
"Old Cao, didn't you say that this piece of material will definitely produce chicken blood? Why not? What is the use of you as an appraiser?"
A person like Yan Kai is the most suitable to be a leader. If there is a problem, he will push it aside. It has nothing to do with him. This is the case now. He only remembers that Lao Cao said that this piece of material will bleed chicken blood, but Lao Cao told him that this piece of material will bleed.
If the material was not even worth 10 yuan, Young Master Yan selectively forgot about it.
"Young Master Yan, did you buy this piece of material? I didn't let you buy it at the time..."
Everyone is very angry. In front of so many people and in full public view, Lao Cao couldn't bear what Yan Kai said to him. If he could endure it any longer, I'm afraid it would be considered a joke in the industry.
"You...what did you say? Say it again!"
After Yan Kai heard what Lao Cao said, his face turned green with anger. How could Lao Cao, who had always been submissive to him, speak to him in this tone? How dare he speak to himself in this tone?
"I'll say it again, Mr. Yan, if you don't understand the chicken-blood stone, don't play with it. You can solve the remaining stones by yourself. I will also help Mr. Lan buy the chicken-blood stone, so I won't serve you anymore..."
After Lao Cao straightened his back and said these words, he felt very happy in his heart. He had skills, and even if he didn't work in Lan Haibei's company, he would still be hungry.
After figuring out this joint, Lao Cao's attitude immediately became tougher. What qualifications does this idiot kid who doesn't understand anything have to point fingers in front of him?
After saying these words, Lao Cao squeezed into the crowd and walked away without looking back.
Lao Cao has been working in Lan Haibei's company for many years. Ever since the company launched the chicken blood stone project, Lao Cao has been in charge. He also knows that Mr. Lan's backstory is quite complicated and he is unable to do many things. Now he has offended Yan Yan.
The baby of the family, Mr. Lan must have fired himself under the pressure of the Yan family to appease the anger of some old ladies.
So after Lao Cao squeezed out the crowd, he immediately took out his mobile phone and called Mr. Lan, telling him that he would resign when he returned to the company after completing the task of purchasing bloodstones.
"Cut down the evening meeting, prepare the car, and go to Changhua immediately..."
After pressing the phone, Lan Haibei showed a trace of exhaustion that could not be concealed on his face. Outsiders saw that he had great success, but who knew that the power of the Yan family was gradually weakening and that his business was becoming increasingly difficult to do?
.
The rise of emerging forces will inevitably represent a redistribution of interests. Today's Zhonghai is no longer what it was when the old man of the Yan family was in power. Even if others still give the old man some face, once interests are involved, face will always be lost.
So valuable.
Now Lan Haibei's several projects are being blocked by some forces. He is almost exhausted from dealing with them. But at this juncture, Yan Kai is causing trouble.
For an old man who has been in the company for more than 10 years to resign, it shows that the matter is not small, and Lan Haibei must handle it personally, otherwise it will chill the hearts of many people who started the business with him.
"It's good to collapse. A layman leads an expert. It would be strange not to bet on collapse..."
"Yeah, this guy is an idiot. To buy such a piece of material for 600,000 yuan is such a coquettish thing..."
"Haha, maybe Teacher Zhuang deliberately set a trap for him yesterday..."
Lao Cao's move made the crowd burst into applause. This was because Yan Kai was not very popular and not many people liked him.
"Old Cao, I'm going to fire you. Damn it, just pack up and get out..."
At this time, Yan Kai was so angry that he was shaking all over. He shouted at the crowd where Lao Cao could no longer be seen. Of course, Lao Cao wouldn't care even if he heard it. He had already made up his mind to resign.
.
"Hey, boss, do you still understand the stone? Leave it to others if you don't understand..."
The stall owner who rented the stone-breaking machine came up to him and asked in a very uninterested manner. He also wanted to take advantage of the crowds to advertise his business. Even though he was not a member of the stone-betting circle, this villager also knew that gambling would ruin his life.
It will be detrimental to your own business.
"Excuse me, why don't you understand? I've given you the money, how about you give it back?"
Yan Kai immediately directed his anger at the man. He angrily walked to the stone cutting machine and put the remaining piece of wool on it himself.
The villager shrank his head and stopped talking. He wanted to pay back the money? There was no way out. If it went into his pocket, it would be his brother's money.
Yan Kai was not stupid. After watching Lao Cao's operation once, he knew how to use the stone cutter. After turning on the power of the stone cutter, he didn't care and cut into the middle of the stone.
The result is self-evident. When Zhuang Rui tricked Yan Kai into buying stones yesterday, the wool he chose was a stone with a little blood on the skin, but the inside was all rough material.
There may be a bit of blood in the stone, but the color is scattered and dim. Even if it is polished into a seal, it is still worth three to five hundred yuan.
After cutting off a piece of material, Yan Kai placed another piece on top. With red eyes, he held the stone cutter and cut it fiercely, as if what was placed below was not chicken blood stone, but Zhuang Rui and Lao Cao.
It must be said that Young Master Yan has some talent for breaking down stones. In just two or three minutes, he cut all the remaining four pieces of material, and some even cut twice, but the result was the same.
It collapsed, which also shows that Mr. Yan’s more than 700,000 yuan was completely wasted.
"Hey, I said, can you give in?"
Yan Kai, who was in a daze, didn't feel that his body was being pushed away. He couldn't understand why he didn't buy a single chicken-blood stone in a place rich in chicken-blood stones after spending six to seven hundred thousand.
Arrive?
The person who pushed Yan Kai away was Zhuang Rui. It wasn't that Zhuang Rui meant to irritate him, he just wanted to finish unpacking the stones and leave here quickly. Although Yuyan Mountain has beautiful mountains and clear waters, Zhuang Rui couldn't stand the fact that he couldn't take a shower.
What's more, Zhuang Rui was even more unhappy when he had to pretend to be Liu Xiahui while sleeping with his wife in his arms.
"Little Yakuza, you're not much better!"
When Yan Kai found out that Zhuang Rui pushed him away, he cursed and spit at Zhuang Rui's feet.
"Boss, you just gave me three stones, but you cut it five times in total, and you still owe me 400 yuan..."
Before Yan Kai finished speaking, he was grabbed by the villager. After hearing what he said, Young Master Yan felt aggrieved.
