"Mr. Li, it's nothing. It's a matter between our merchants!"
Boss Niu smiled bitterly and shook his head. The two people next to him looked at Li Yang with respect and seemed to have some admiration. Li Yang looked familiar to these two people. He had met them before, but he didn't know their names.
"Mr. Li, you are here!"
Little girl Niu Ling also ran out of the store, stood respectfully in front of Li Yang, and said hello to Wang Jiajia. Her sister's voice was very sweet.
"Lingling, what's going on with your father?" Seeing that Boss Niu didn't say anything, Li Yang simply changed his goal and asked Niu Ling directly.
Although he doesn't have much dealings with Boss Niu, Li Yang already regards him as a friend in his heart. Now when he sees Boss Niu having something to do, he naturally wants to ask questions.
"My dad is fine. Something happened to several stores in the South District. They were deceived and miserably. My dad tried to persuade them not to listen, but now they blame my dad again!"
The little girl Niu Ling immediately pouted her lips, with some anger on her face. Boss Niu immediately glared at her and scolded: "Lingling, don't talk nonsense!"
Li Yang frowned and said: "Boss Niu, what's going on? If you don't tell me, I'll call someone else to ask!"
"No, I said, I said!"
Boss Niu waved his hands repeatedly, sighed again, and slowly told the matter. He didn't say it, but he believed that Li Yang could really ask. At this time, Boss Niu didn't know what the background behind Li Yang was, but he also knew
He is a very energetic person.
Boss Niu invited Li Yang to sit down in the store and spoke slowly.
Just like what little girl Niu Ling said, the accident happened in several jade shops in the South District, not his place.
Ever since Li Yang gambled away glass-grown jade from Boss Niu, and everyone knew that Boss Niu had a good relationship with the Jade Sage, Boss Niu's reputation in Panjiayuan Jade Shop has become higher and higher.
A few months ago, before Li Yang went to Myanmar, Boss Niu was elected as the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce.
This chamber of commerce was spontaneously formed by Panjiayuan and nearby jewelry and jade shops. It was mainly to maintain the stability of their business. It had no official background and was considered a completely private organization.
Although it is a private organization, there are many things going on. Colleagues are enemies, let alone colleagues in the same area. Everyone wants to make their own business better, and there will naturally be some bumps in the road. At this time, they are needed.
The Chamber of Commerce came forward to coordinate and resolve the issue.
Boss Niu is an enthusiastic person. After becoming the vice president, he actually solved several things, which made his prestige higher and higher. If the president didn't have a certain official background, he would need to come forward to negotiate with the officials on some matters.
, I’m afraid Boss Niu will be directly pushed to the position of president.
This incident has something to do with him as the vice-president. Some time ago, a big wool merchant came from Tengchong and took the initiative to approach Boss Niu, saying that he could provide a batch of high-quality stone wool at a very reasonable price.
justice.
For merchants in the jade business across the country, stone gambling wool has always been in short supply, especially in places like Boss Niu who also do the stone gambling business and the stone gambling business is also very good, the demand for wool materials is even greater.
Boss Niu was immediately moved when he heard it and immediately placed an order for a batch.
The first batch of wool delivered was really good, and the price was much better than if they went out to purchase it themselves. Boss Niu immediately ordered the second batch, and this batch of goods was also delivered to Boss Niu in a short time.
Here, Boss Niu’s business was booming for a while.
I don't know how the two purchases were spread to other merchants. Other merchants came to see Boss Niu, hoping to contact this wool merchant and purchase some low-priced high-quality wool.
Boss Niu has not agreed to the requests of these merchants for the time being. He has done business with this wool merchant twice, but he always feels that this person is not practical and wants to continue to observe.
Moreover, in these two business transactions, he inspected the goods first and then paid. The purchase amount each time was limited to 500,000 yuan. He just wanted to see what this strange wool merchant was like first, and then tell other merchants after he was sure.
, cooperate with him in the name of the Chamber of Commerce.
Direct cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce was the initial request of this wool merchant.
Unfortunately, these merchants were unwilling to listen to Boss Niu's explanation. Some people even spread rumors to slander Boss Niu, saying that he was using his power for personal gain and deliberately occupied this purchasing channel alone to prevent them from participating.
Due to pressure, Boss Niu only had to contact the wool merchant in the name of the Chamber of Commerce in advance. However, Boss Niu did not participate much in the subsequent operations. Other merchants were talking to the wool merchant.
The most active ones here are the jade shops in the South District.
The South District is the Panjiayuan South District. Strictly speaking, the jade shop there has left the Panjiayuan Market and is an independent small market. With the help of Panjiayuan's geographical location, their business has always been good, but the Wagyu boss is temporarily
There is still a certain distance.
This was one of the reasons why they were so eager to contact the wool merchant. Boss Niu was already more famous than them, and with low-priced supplies, they would only become more and more disadvantaged in the future competition.
Several merchants on Boss Niu's side listened to his advice. Although they were a little jealous about the contact this time, they were all cautious and did not get involved for the time being. More than a dozen stores in the southern district made another small batch purchase.
After that, he directly placed a large order of 50 million.
50 million, with an average of more than 3 million per store. Considering the size of those stores, this kind of order is absolutely unprecedented.
This time the wool merchant reluctantly agreed. He said that he had opened the markets around Beijing and Tianjin. In addition to them, Tianjin and Shijiazhuang also wanted a lot of goods. The 50 million goods could be given to them first.
, but payment must be made on delivery.
The wool merchant only wanted a deposit of one million, but he kept the ugly words for now. He didn't have to worry about selling his wool, and he would take it directly to Tianjin without paying when the goods arrived.
The merchants in the southern district all agreed unconditionally. According to the price of this wool merchant, they can make a lot of money as long as this batch of goods comes into their hands. Such good wool can be paid in advance and cash on delivery.
It has been very beneficial to them.
A few days later, the goods were pulled over in two large trucks, and the woolen materials on the trucks were still stained with black soil.
The wool merchant explained to everyone at that time that this was new wool from the large mine that Jade Saint Li Yang gambled out. It was all high-quality wool and he bought it from the Thornton family through his connections. Otherwise, it would not be possible.
There will be such a favorable price.
The news that General Thornton and Li Yang had teamed up to gamble on a large mine vein had already reached Beijing. After several merchants washed a few pieces of wool, they found that it was indeed newly mined high-quality wool, and they immediately believed what the merchants said.
At the same time, they also felt very lucky and regarded this wool merchant as a very powerful person. They heard that many domestic jewelry companies spent a lot of money to make reservations for this new mine that Jade Saint gambled on.
It took some time to get the wool, and they had already seen it.
This also makes them secretly happy to have a relationship with such a person. Even if they don't sell these gambling stones at retail, they can still make a lot of money just by being a middleman. There are many places across the country that lack high-quality wool.
yes.
After verification, the wool merchant urged them to pay, saying that he would go to Burma to have tea with General Thornton and talk about shipping wool directly in containers.
These lies were not clever, but the merchants who were swayed by the benefits believed them. Not only did they immediately transfer the remaining balance to this person, they also paid another 10 million deposits.
The deposit this time was also for an order for woolen materials, and the order was for 80 million yuan. More than a dozen families jointly discussed and decided to make a profit by selling this batch of woolen materials first. Having more liquidity would also be beneficial to their business.
There are benefits.
The second order of 80,000,000 pieces of wool can still go some way, and the remaining wool may be a net profit by then.
To put it bluntly, they just want to be a second-rate dealer who sells the wool they bought at a low price at a high price and make a profit from it.
Unfortunately, their dream of getting rich was shattered within two days. A merchant cleaned up all the purchased wool after returning it. This cleaning was not a big deal, but he found that more than 80% of it was dyed and fake wool, and the other two were fake.
There are only a few pieces of really fine wool, the rest are very ordinary, covering up the shortcomings.
This discovery was a big blow to him. Together with the deposit, he paid nearly 5 million. He borrowed a lot of money to get the money. If the materials in front of him were false, he would not even be able to make up for it.
I can't even get back 300,000 yuan.
Things became even simpler after that. Every merchant who received the wool quickly checked their wool and found that they were all the same as this one. Eighty percent of them were fake, and they were all dyed Xinchangkou wool.
Xinchangkou wool is also a gambling stone, but it is incomparable with the old Changkou wool. The total value of these Xinchangkou wool is not even half a million.
Li Yang has also seen this kind of wool, and the value is indeed very low. The wool materials Zhang Wei once placed behind Cuiyuxuan are just like this. They are all for newcomers to practice, and they cost a few hundred yuan, or even dozens of yuan a piece.
.
After these merchants discovered this, they immediately panicked. The result was as everyone guessed. The scammer never came back and could never be contacted again.
After calling the police and investigating, the scammers used false identities from beginning to end, and the money had been transferred without trace. The total of the two times was a total of 60 million. They were completely wasted.
Sixty million was almost a crushing blow to more than a dozen merchants. When they couldn't find a liar, they actually found Boss Niu.
They met this liar through Boss Niu. They asked Boss Niu to hand over the liar. Boss Niu could only smile bitterly and shake his head at this request. He had persuaded these people a long time ago, but they just refused to listen. Now he knows that it is too late to regret it.
After listening to Boss Niu's narration, Li Yang finally understood why little girl Niu Ling had that expression just now.
Boss Niu had persuaded them a long time ago, but they didn't listen, and now they are still blaming it on Boss Niu. Boss Niu has a good temper, and someone else would have ignored them long ago.
