"Sima, I'll explain it later. I'll introduce you to a new friend first!"
Zhang Wei waved his hand and walked directly to Li Yang: "Mr. Li, how are you doing? Which piece do you like? I'll give you a piece to play with!"
"Mr. Zhang, you are so polite. If anyone is really interested, I will buy it!"
Li Yang hurriedly stood up. The price of these gambling stones would not be too high, but they were still worth several hundred yuan. Some of the better-performing stones might cost thousands of dollars. Zhang Wei and Li Yang had just met, so they were willing to give away such stones.
Li Yang was quite fond of the things.
"Haha, what are you buying? I'm just showing off. I can fool some novices. Come on, come on, brother Li, let me introduce you to some real experts!" Zhang Wei laughed and pulled Li Yang.
Without any explanation, he walked towards the stone dissolving machine.
"Mr. Gu, Sima, Haomin, this is Mr. Li Yangli from An's Jewelry Company that I mentioned to you. Mr. Li, this is Mr. Gu. Mr. Gu is an old man from our Mingyang City Jade Association. He is also
The Taishan Beidou of our Mingyang jade world!”
Zhang Wei took Li Yang and introduced him to the man in his fifties. Li Yang hurriedly stepped forward and shook hands. Compared with Mr. Gu, Li Yang was really too young.
"The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. We have all heard about Mr. Li's deeds. You have made our jade counterparts in Mingyang very embarrassed!"
Mr. Gu smiled and nodded, while Li Yang was a little confused by what they said and could only giggle along with him.
Zhang Wei pointed at Sima Lin who was standing in front of the stone dissecting machine: "Sima Lin, the director of our association, has the best research on stone wool materials. He just came back from Pingzhou yesterday and brought back three pieces of wool materials. Today he really let
He’s so swollen!”
"Old Zhang, aren't you trying to kill me? I have no place in front of Mr. Gu and you!"
Sima Lin deliberately turned his face, but then smiled. He had just gained a stone in his bet. At this time, he was still in a very good mood, and he couldn't pretend to be anything like it.
"Hello, Mr. Sima, I will definitely learn more from you if I have the opportunity in the future!" Li Yang nodded, and Zhang Wei pointed at Wang Haomin, who was standing there at the end.
Wang Haomin didn't wait for Zhang Wei's introduction. He walked over first and took the initiative to hold Li Yang's hand: "I am Wang Haomin from Zijin Jewelry. Nice to meet you!"
"Hello, Mr. Wang, I am very happy to meet you. I have heard your name many times!"
Li Yang hurriedly stretched out his hand. His words were not polite. He had heard the names of Zijin Jewelry and Wang Haomin more than once. Zijin Jewelry is the boss of Mingyang's local jewelry company, although it is not as good as An's Jewelry and Lao Fengxiang.
It is not easy for a large chain company like Chow Tai Fook to set a local example.
"No, how much older am I than you? If Mr. Li doesn't mind, I'll call you brother Li!" Wang Haomin smiled and shook his head. Li Yang had already discovered that this was a person with a relatively forthright temperament.
"Of course, no problem!" Li Yang agreed hastily.
Wang Haomin nodded slightly: "Okay, Brother Li has a bright future. I believe that within a few years, the person in charge of An's Mingyang Group will become Brother Li!"
"You two enemies, don't be too busy reminiscing about old times. I invited Mr. Li here just to invite him to join our Mingyang Jade Association. What do you think?"
Zhang Wei walked over with a smile. Li Yang was slightly startled, and then laughed. He was an enemy in the same industry. It is not wrong to say that he and Wang Haomin were enemies. Both of them were from jewelry companies.
"You are the president, you can just do whatever you want, how can we have any objections!"
Wang Haomin first expressed his position. Sima Lin was still paying attention to the remaining half of his wool. When Zhang Wei asked him, he just waved with one hand: "No need to ask me!"
"Mr. Gu, what do you think?" Zhang Wei seemed to have expected Sima Lin's attitude. As soon as Sima Lin finished speaking to Zhang Wei, he had already asked Mr. Gu.
Mr. Gu lowered his head and thought for a while, and then his face seemed to reveal a sigh: "I agree, our Jade Association should indeed attract some young people to join!"
"Everyone agrees. I think it's okay. Mr. Li, what do you think?"
Zhang Wei smiled with satisfaction and finally asked Li Yang. Li Yang was confused at this time. Although he was very interested in this jade association, it did not mean that he would just blindly join a group that he did not know.
Familiar and unfamiliar organizations.
Li Yang shook his head gently: "Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry, I still don't understand what you are talking about. What does our Mingyang Jade Association do?"
Zhang Wei suddenly slapped his forehead: "Look at me for being so confused. I forgot to introduce this. It's like this. Our Mingyang Jade Association is not an official organization. In fact, it is an alliance of jade lovers. Thank you for your support.
Currently, I serve as the president of the Jade Association, and because of me, the Jade Association has temporarily set up its headquarters in my place!"
Sima Lin had already begun to unpack the last half of the material, but this did not affect Zhang Wei's introduction to Li Yang. After Zhang Wei finished the introduction, Li Yang finally had some understanding.
As Zhang Wei himself said, the Mingyang Jade Association is just a private organization. Strictly speaking, it is an alliance of enthusiasts. There are no complicated rules and regulations, and there is no real office location. Usually everyone mainly works in Cuiyuxuan.
Juju.
Such private organizations are generally very small, and the Jade Association is no exception. The association has only about twenty members in total. Zhang Wei is the president. In addition to him, there are four directors, namely Mr. Gu, Sima Lin, and Wang Haomin.
Like Zheng Kaida, who is not here today, almost all matters of the association are decided by the four directors and Zhang Wei together, so Zhang Wei can decide whether he can absorb Li Yang after asking the three of them here.
The reason why Zhang Wei invited Li Yang was mainly because of Li Yang's record of three bets and two big gains in Qingdao. These days, it is not difficult for jade bets to rise, but it is not easy to rise sharply. At the beginning of last year, Zhoukou City next to Mingyang had a
An expert in stone betting, he bet seven yuan on wool and two yuan rose sharply, which made his colleagues in Zhoukou show off. So as soon as Li Yang's deeds came out, Zhang Wei immediately wanted to recruit Li Yang.
, and can also make my colleagues in the Mingyang Jade Association look good.
Understanding this, Li Yang couldn't help but shake his head slightly. There are comparisons everywhere. Except for Jade City Nanyang, there are comparisons in all cities in Henan. Besides the jade competition, the most exciting thing is stone gambling. Every year, the jade associations in various places have competitions.
The main purpose of the party is to bet on stones. If the bets in any city increase a lot or the bets increase sharply, they can be proud in front of their peers in other cities. Mingyang has been ranked second from the bottom for three consecutive years. It is no wonder that Zhang Wei, the president, is a little bit
in a hurry.
After understanding this, Li Yang is no longer so curious about the Jade Association, but he has no intention of joining just like that. He knows his own level best, and he is not afraid of anyone if he bets on the rise, but when it comes to basic things, he doesn't care.
