Saturday morning was quite lively. Early in the morning, Li Yang personally drove the new car he just bought and took his family to Panjiayuan.
This time Li Yang came to Panjiayuan not to shop for treasures, but to purchase some classical furniture to take back. There is a large classical furniture market next to Panjiayuan. These furniture are not antiques, but they are all good handicrafts. There are many
They are all made of high-grade mahogany as the main material.
The car stopped at another remote entrance of Panjiayuan. If you weren't going to buy antiques, there was no need to enter through the main entrance, which was closer.
According to Li Yang's plan, there are quite a lot of classical furniture to buy. The dining table needs to be changed, an extra set of classical dressing tables should be added to the bedroom, some good mahogany sofas should be added to other guest rooms, and some more decorations should be added to the living room.
All in all, Li Yang's purchase plan requires at least twenty items.
The cost of these twenty pieces of high-end mahogany furniture alone is much higher than the daily necessities purchased for so many days.
"There are quite a lot of people here!"
After getting off the bus, looking at the dense crowd around him, Li Junshan couldn't help but sigh. The most important thing Panjiayuan lacks on weekends is people. Many places are almost crowded.
"Dad, this is the most visited antique market in ***. It's strange that there aren't many people. There's a furniture section in front of it. Let's go see it together!"
Li Yang stepped forward and grabbed Li Junshan, stretched out his finger and pointed into the distance. In the distance was an area that looked like a huge warehouse, where was the market for classical furniture.
"good!"
Li Junshan nodded and walked over there with Li Yang. These days, Li Junshan and his wife have been thinking about shopping. Since their son has money, he should buy good quality when buying things. All the money is earned by his son.
, as long as he doesn't do bad things, neither of them will interfere.
"So many things?"
Entering the sales location that looked like a large warehouse, Li Yang's mother looked around and asked in surprise. The decoration here was very simple, and there were a lot of antique furniture placed in a very empty place.
Li Yang chuckled and explained: "Mom, *** is the capital and has a large population. Any market is not small. Today is the weekend again, so there will definitely be more things on display!"
"Auntie, Li Yang is right. When we come to buy things, of course the more things we can choose, the better!"
Wang Jiajia has been holding Li Yang's mother's arm, and the two of them look more like a mother and daughter together.
Li Junshan and his wife have no daughter, but they also really love Wang Jiajia, especially Li Yang's mother, who loves Wang Jiajia more than her daughter.
While talking, Li Yang had already walked to a place to look, shook his head, and continued walking forward.
After walking for a while, Li Yang stopped at a place with many antique chairs and looked carefully at the mahogany Taishi chairs placed here.
Mahogany is a general term. There are many types of wood in mahogany. A good quality piece can cost hundreds of thousands or even millions, while an ordinary piece can cost several thousand yuan. The price difference in between is very large.
Because of this, there are a lot of fake mahogany furniture. For example, ordinary rosewood is disguised as huanghuali wood with the help of whitewash and chemicals. Sometimes the price difference of such furniture is more than a hundred times.
The best among mahogany are huanghuali and rosewood. The output of huanghuali has been greatly reduced a long time ago, and now it is even rarer. Moreover, this type of furniture has always been in short supply. As long as it appears, it will definitely be sold.
People buy it.
There are more rosewood than huanghuali, but rosewood itself is divided into several categories, including Guangxi rosewood, Burmese rosewood, Indian rosewood, African rosewood, etc. The value of these rosewoods is also very different.
Generally speaking, the rosewood from Guangxi and Myanmar belongs to small-leaf rosewood, which is the top grade of rosewood. The quality of the rosewood from India and Africa is slightly worse, and belongs to large-leaf rosewood, and its value is slightly lower.
However, as long as it is rosewood, the price is not much lower. Rosewood itself is the best mahogany. When trading, it is calculated directly by weight.
The best small-leaf red sandalwood is worth at least two to three million per ton, and good furniture made by a good master will be much more expensive.
In addition to huanghuali and rosewood, other high-value mahogany include rosewood, ebony, etc.
The mahogany chairs that Li Yang is looking at are made of rosewood. However, in terms of species, rosewood is also a major category of mahogany, which is divided into several subcategories.
In terms of broad classification, rosewood is divided into red rosewood and black rosewood. The raw material of the chairs in front of you is red rosewood, and red rosewood is the most common in China.
This type of mahogany is also called old mahogany, and is mostly imported from some countries in Southeast Asia. Myanmar, in particular, is rich in red rosewood, and China imports a large amount of these woods from Myanmar every year.
Compared with huanghuali and rosewood, the value of rosewood is lower. Among rosewood, red rosewood is slightly inferior to black rosewood. The main raw material of these chairs is red rosewood.
A complete set of this kind of mahogany furniture generally costs 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, and larger pieces can cost more than 100,000 yuan, but there are not many of them.
The workmanship of these Taishi chairs is very good, and the patterns are also very bright, beautiful and generous. Li Yang was very moved when he saw them.
There is a glass observation deck on the third floor of the villa he recently bought in ***. There are several chairs there, and it is very refreshing to drink tea and watch the scenery.
Moreover, the value of a single red rosewood Taishi chair is not too high. The market price is generally more than 10,000 yuan. If you buy four and match it with a tea table, it will not exceed 100,000 yuan. This price is not worth it to Li Yang.
question.
"Dad, what do you think of these?"
After taking a fancy to the chairs, Li Yang did not ask the price directly, but asked Li Junshan next to him. After buying these chairs, Li Yang just wanted to chat with Li Junshan on the roof when he was free and ask his father's opinion.
necessary.
"It looks very good, but I can't understand this thing. You should make up your own mind!"
Li Junshan touched it carefully and finally shook his head. He really didn't know much about furniture. I'm afraid Li Junshan didn't even know what types of redwood there were. Unlike Li Yang, these were the necessary foundations for learning miscellaneous knowledge.
"Okay then, it looks pretty good to me anyway, I'll ask first!"
Li Yang waved to the boss. In fact, the boss noticed them as soon as Li Yang and the others arrived. The two old men and the three young men looked like members of the same family. People like this have the highest transaction rate when they come out to buy things.
"Brother, what do you like?"
The boss came over with a smile on his face. Li Yang was dressed very casually when he went out today, but people here don't judge people by their appearance. They don't look at clothes but only attitude. Those who have the intention to buy are their most important customers.
Nowadays, more and more Chinese people like mahogany furniture, and mahogany furniture itself can be regarded as an investment. The price of mahogany is rising every year, which leads to a substantial increase in finished furniture.
"How much do these, plus the tea table, cost in total?"
There are four chairs in Li Yang's circle. There are only six such chairs here. The other two have some minor flaws, which have little impact on the value, but they are always a flaw. Since there are good ones, Li Yang will definitely not choose them.
Something with flaws.
"Brother, you have such good taste. These are the best things I have. Seeing that your vision is so accurate, I won't ask you to lie about the price. This chair is 15,000 yuan, and the tea table is 20,000 yuan.
If you want them all, I will give you another two thousand, for a total of fifty-eight thousand. This number is also auspicious!"
The boss said with a big grin. Li Yang pointed at several things at once, which surprised the boss and made him very happy at the same time. He would try his best to complete this business.
Fifteen thousand a handful was indeed not a high price, so he finally gave up another two thousand. Li Yang thought about it carefully and found that the price was still fair.
"Fifteen thousand? Why is it so expensive? Yangyang, why don't we ask a few more companies and compare?"
Li Yang's mother suddenly came over and whispered something. Li Yang was stunned for a moment and nodded lightly.
My mother is a simple person who has been accustomed to it all her life. She feels a little distressed when she sees Li Yang spending a lot of money these days. Although she knows that her son is rich, this feeling cannot be avoided.
The things she bought before were all daily necessities. What she wanted to buy today were some furniture for use. In her opinion, there was no need to buy such expensive ones. At 15,000 a piece, a chair would last her for a year.
pension.
"Wait a minute, brother, don't leave. We can easily negotiate the price. If you really want it, I can give you more!"
Seeing that Li Yang was about to leave, the boss became a little anxious. Li Yang's mother's voice was very low, but she was still heard by him even though she was so close. These people in front of her were real customers who came to buy things. Let them go.
There's no telling whose business this deal will be.
He is not the only one selling such red rosewood chairs in this market.
"How much more can we give in?" Before Li Yang could speak, his mother asked first.
Li Yang looked at the boss with a smile and stopped talking. In fact, Li Yang knew very well that the competition in such a large market was very fierce, and even if he visited several more companies, he would not be able to negotiate a high price. The reason why Li Yang was willing to leave was because he did not want to be disobedient.
What my mother means is that since my mother wants to visit a few more places, then just accompany her to visit a few more places.
"I'm giving you one thousand, how about a total of fifty-seven thousand?"
The boss gritted his teeth, and the mother immediately shook her head and said: "You only gave me one thousand for fifty or sixty thousand, which is too little. Let's ask again!"
After saying that, He Ailing was about to leave. She actually walked out several steps, and even Li Yang and Li Junshan followed her.
The boss looked even more anxious when he saw this, and hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute, if you really want it, take this whole set of fifty-five thousand. Fifty-five thousand really can't be lower. I can guarantee that it is from here."
The lowest price, but if it doesn’t work, there’s nothing I can do!”
He Ailing stopped and waited for Li Yang to come over before quietly asking: "Yangyang, what's the price?"
"It's not high, it's very reasonable. The value of this kind of mahogany is not low. Good things must be more expensive!"
After thinking about it, Li Yang said slowly, fifty-eight thousand Li Yang is not too expensive, let alone fifty-five thousand. Most of the profits of mahogany furniture are in processing and raw materials, but the profits of finished products are not that much.
high.
Unless the boss purchases the raw materials and processes them himself, he can make more profits.
………………
The third update is over, please ask for more ***.
Xiaoyu knew that writing each chapter would seem very tedious, but there was nothing he could do about it. It was the end of the month, when the competition was the fiercest. Looking at the situation from behind and approaching step by step, Xiaoyu felt anxious. It was better than that.
