"No need to thank me, you can make preparations in advance!"
Li Yang smiled again and said, with Bai Ming's temperament, he could take the initiative to make this request again, which is enough to see the anxiety and desire in his heart at this time.
Bai Ming founded a museum of porcelain specimens. To put it bluntly, they are porcelain pieces.
This kind of museum is not as attractive as others. It is private and more difficult to operate. It cannot be compared with Teacher Ma's already famous museum.
But this exhibition is different. Putting a few of Li Yang's treasures there can attract people, which is like making a hot advertisement for the museum.
This influence can last for a long time.
"Don't worry, I promise to prepare everything properly!"
Bai Ming immediately patted his chest and promised that since Li Yang said it would be these days, it must be these days. He really had to prepare in advance.
Mr. Mao suddenly said: "Why do I feel that your guarantee is unreliable?"
Everyone was slightly startled and looked at Mr. Mao.
Soon, everyone was laughing together, and their reactions were not slow. This was Mr. Mao deliberately teasing Bai Ming. Not to mention, Bai Ming's impatience really made people feel unreliable.
"***, don't look down on me, I'll make preparations now!"
Bai Ming's face turned red and he shouted loudly. While shouting, he took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
Bai Ming's newly acquired disciple Xiao Yan is now in the museum. Bai Ming did not take him with him to Yunnan this time. The main reason is that his basic skills are too poor. It is now the time to make up for his basic skills and is not suitable for participating in large-scale activities.
Once you have a solid foundation, it’s not too late to participate in these activities again.
However, Xiao Yan is a very flexible person, so it would be good to let him prepare for the exhibition in Beijing first. As soon as the call was connected, Bai Ming gave the order.
Seeing Bai Ming making arrangements seriously, everyone laughed even harder.
Bai Ming is such a person, he can't stand being provoked and jumps when provoked. This is the best trick to use against Bai Ming.
After making the call, Bai Ming came back to his senses and realized that he had been deceived by Mr. Mao. Unfortunately, it was too late. He had become a laughing stock for everyone, but it was not a bad thing for the museum to prepare in advance.
If you prepare in advance, the exhibition will be more successful.
Looking at Bai Ming, Li Yang smiled happily, but he was secretly making a decision in his heart. This time, he would definitely give Bai Ming the most successful exhibition.
Dean Huang left Mingyang before dinner. He was already busy with work. This time he came to Mingyang purely to see his old friends. If Li Yang hadn't come back with the treasure, he would have left yesterday.
But there was one more person during dinner.
Ma Juntao came in a hurry. After receiving a call from Li Yang, he immediately started to book a flight. There was no direct flight from Kunming to Mingyang. He went to Zhengzhou first and then took a taxi directly to Mingyang.
In one day, he finally arrived.
In any case, he was also the son of the Jade King. Li Yang was also very moved by the importance he attached to cooperation. After dinner, the few of them began to make plans about the jade factory.
In this regard, Ma Juntao is indeed an expert. Based on the information provided by Li Yang, he began to calculate the expected costs of opening a jade factory in Jieyang. To him, it didn't matter where the jade factory was opened. Now that the Kunming market is gradually saturated, he can open up Jieyang.
The market is still a good thing.
The overall budget requires about 250 million yuan, which includes land, construction of all aspects of the factory, a full set of tools, recruitment of workers and masters, and the first batch of wool materials in stock.
Among them, wool accounts for a considerable share. The jade factory cannot live without wool. If Li Yang and Ma Juntao had not had a strong relationship, it is estimated that the budget might even reach 300 million.
In Jieyang, a large jade factory really needs this amount of investment.
Of course, this is just an expectation. The expected costs will be more. In actual operation, this amount of money may not be used. After all, this is a large-scale project. The government will give some discounts. Now there are policies for attracting investment across the country.
All very good.
Once the funding is determined, the rest is the details.
Lin Lang left this aspect completely to Lin Bowen, which can be regarded as an exercise for Lin Bowen.
Because of Lin Lang's status, this jade factory could also be used as a Sino-foreign joint venture and could obtain some preferential treatment. Ma Juntao used everything he could think of to open the jade factory as soon as possible.
This is not only the bond between Lin Lang and Li Yang, but also the bridge between him and Li Yang.
After a day, the small details were almost finalized. Li Yang didn't know much, Lin Lang only invested and didn't care about anything except the jade carving master, and Ma Juntao had rich experience. Basically, whatever he said was what he said.
In this case, the work efficiency is naturally faster.
The funds were raised faster. Li Yanggang had an extra 300 million yuan in income. It was no problem to spend more than 100 million. Lin Lang only needed to temporarily spend 25 million. This money was just drizzle to him.
.
Ma Juntao is also an owner who is not short of money. His share has been prepared for a long time. Before the funds were in place, he first ran to Jieyang to inspect the most suitable location. Although he was a pioneer officer, he was also impatient.
Li Yang is not worried about what trouble he will encounter in Jieyang. After all, the Jade King is also a famous person. He is the son of the Jade King and can handle many things.
After finishing these tasks, Li Yang took Wang Jiajia back to Licheng.
It has been two days since he returned to Mingyang, and he has not yet seen his parents, which makes Li Yang feel guilty. If Ma Juntao hadn't suddenly come here and they were discussing the jade factory together, Li Yang would have returned the next day.
Licheng.
Those who returned with Li Yang were inevitably Wang Jiajia, Zhao Kui and Haidong. Zhao Yong was still hiding in the dark as before, doing things that Zhao Kui and the others could not do.
Both Bai Ming and Teacher Cai returned to Beijing. Bai Ming went back to prepare the preparations in the museum in person, while Teacher Cai had some personal matters of his own.
Mr. Hoss and Mr. Mao stayed, and they discussed some topics with Mr. He. Mr. He did not often go abroad, and he only knew Mr. Hoss, but did not have a deep friendship. This time it was just right for them to have a good exchange.
Mr. Hoss admired Mr. He's profound knowledge, and he also admired Mr. Hoss's unique insights, which broadened his views a lot.
Listening to their conversation, Mr. Mao gained even more.
Lin Lang went to Guangzhou. He needed to personally handle the affairs of the jade carving master. It was not easy to invite such a master. Lin Bowen stayed in Mingyang, doing the logistics work of the jade factory.
Li Yang, who invested the most and had the most shares, became the most leisurely one. Anyway, he believed in Lin Lang and Ma Juntao and simply didn't ask anything.
This made Wang Jiajia very emotional. A hands-off shopkeeper like Li Yang felt so comfortable. Even in his own antique shop, he usually didn't ask much questions and only focused on making money.

"Dad, brother, you are all at home!"
Returning to Licheng, as soon as he entered the house, he saw Li Cheng and Li Junshan busy with something in the yard. Li Yang hurriedly walked over.
"Yangyang is back, let's go inside first and let's wash our hands first!"
Li Junshan raised his head and said happily that they didn't know about Li Yang's return to Mingyang and thought that his son was busy in other places. Since Li Yang became famous, he went home less and less.
"What are you doing?"
Only then did Li Yang discover that his father and elder brother were cleaning a large archaeological shelf. This archaeological shelf was still a few years old and was from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. However, the material was ordinary. In Li Yang's eyes, it was just an ordinary old object.
Li Cheng cracked a smile, pointed at the antique rack and said: "I went to Zhengzhou on a business trip two days ago, so I walked around the antique city when I had nothing to do. I liked this thing when I saw it, so I bought it. You came back just in time.
, how is this thing? I didn’t do it, I asked an expert for help!”
"It's an old thing. How much did it cost?"
Li Yang took a closer look and found that the Bogu rack was black, relatively well preserved, and of certain value.
"Twenty thousand, as long as it's not a fake, it proves that I bought it right!"
Li Yang's words made Li Cheng obviously relieved, and he said proudly. It seemed that in his heart, the so-called experts he invited were far less credible than his brother's words.
"not bad!"
Li Yang smiled and nodded. A large Bogu rack from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China costs at least 20,000 yuan. This piece is well preserved and could be worth even more. Li Cheng did not lose money on the purchase.
It seems that under his influence, everyone in the family has also changed. In the past, Li Cheng would never have spent so much money to buy such a thing.
"That's right. I was thinking about it. If I put this thing at home, the antiques you gave me for dad would just fit in there. Our home would be more antique and have a lot of atmosphere!"
Li Cheng laughed again. He didn't think about himself when he bought this thing. Besides, he lived in a commercial building, and there was no room for such a large book shelf at home.
"Okay, then I'm going to add some old things to my house and fill this ancient shelf!"
Li Yang also smiled and said that adding some things would not be a problem for him. Now that there is a book shelf, some real old objects must be placed on it.
In any case, this is also my hometown, so I can’t be too shuddering, right? Now he is an internationally renowned top master in the industry.
"What are you adding? Stop adding to it. That's it. I've been frightened all day long, for fear of attracting a thief!"
Mom walked out of the kitchen. She was busy just now. After Li Yang came back, she immediately cleaned up and washed her hands. She happened to hear the conversation between the two brothers.
Li Yang chuckled and said: "Mom, it's okay. I'll find someone to replace all the doors and windows at home. There will be no problem with safety. At the worst, I'll hire some bodyguards!"
In fact, there is nothing wrong with leaving some things at home. The security company Li Yang bought has people monitoring and protecting the area 24 hours a day. Ordinary thieves cannot escape from them.
It's just that the family doesn't know about these things, and Li Yang doesn't dare to say them out, so he can only mention them as a joke, lest they find out later and won't be able to accept them.
