After digging out the jade meat from a few pieces of wool, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening. The brothers went to have a midnight snack again, and the excitement continued until early in the morning. Chen Ran returned to the room and didn't sleep even when he wanted to.
Next, he took out the stone trough and the scrap piece of material and played with them for a long time before putting them on the bedside before he could sleep peacefully.
Chen Ran got up early the next morning. To be precise, he was woken up by a phone call. The phone call was from the old man. The old man was not happy with him because he did not go on a field trip with Mr. Zhu and the others and kept following Zhu Feng.
He was very dissatisfied and scolded him angrily.
Chen Ran has been working as a hands-off shopkeeper for the past two days, and he knows that he is in the wrong and can only be taught a lesson. As for the old man saying that he followed Zhu Feng around, although it made him laugh or cry, he knew that the old man had never had a good impression of Zhu Feng, so he was offended.
No wonder.
"Xiao Ran, the little lunatic is a two-faced person. You should be more careful when dating him. Even though you have a good relationship with him now, he might sell you out one day." Before hanging up the phone,
The old man also hummed to warn Chen Ran. The old man had a close relationship with the Zhu family. He was a close friend of the old man Zhu Feng. He also knew the history of Zhu Feng's family. He knew Zhu Feng's family history very well.
Naturally, I can't stand Feng's style of doing things.
"Don't worry, old man, I understand." The old man warned himself with good intentions. Chen Ran also appreciated it, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. With his current situation, he couldn't get away from Zhu Feng's line, let alone the duplicitous one.
Zhu Feng is not the only person. Everyone has two sides and three swords. Besides, at this stage, he has nothing to sell to Zhu Feng. His relationship with Zhu Feng is just a matter of interest, and there is nothing business involved.
, there is no conflict for the time being. Fortunately, the old man only asked him to guard against Zhu Feng, but did not let him cut off contact with Zhu Feng.
After hanging up the old man's call, Chen Ran wanted to move his body. He was used to exercising every morning, but now that he didn't do it, he felt a little uncomfortable. But the Overlord was still sleeping, so he had to give up this idea and wash himself off.
, so he knocked on the door of Guo Hai and Zhang Shuchun. They were both still sleeping in a daze. He didn't care about Guo Hai. It's strange that this guy slept so late last night and couldn't get up before the sun came out.
He just woke up the dazed Zhang Shuchun and knocked on the door of Mr. Zhu and Deputy Secretary-General Li. They had already gotten up and were exercising on the balcony.
Chen Ran said hello to Deputy Secretary-General Li who was brushing his teeth. Deputy Secretary-General Li was brushing his teeth and couldn't reply, so he just shook his hand with Chen Ran. However, Mr. Zhu heard Chen Ran's voice and looked back, smiling.
Hehehe greeted Chen Ran: "Xiao Chen, you got up quite early too."
"You grew old earlier than me." Chen Ran smiled and said to Mr. Zhu. Mr. Zhu was also a university professor before, but he joined the association because he retired and didn't want to be idle. Plus he was invited by the old man to work in the association.
Yes, Chen Ran still sincerely respects such people.
"I'm old. I'm not as good as you young people, haha." Mr. Zhu has been friends with the old man for a long time, and he still has a good impression of Chen Ran. In his eyes, although President Chen is young, no matter how he is doing things,
He has solid abilities and basic skills, and he is also stable. Young people like this are hard to find nowadays.
Chen Ran and Mr. Zhu said hello and sat on the sofa in the living room to look at the materials they were studying. Yesterday they mainly investigated the factories and mines of wool in the Tengchong Wool Market and the various mines of wool that appeared in the market.
That is to estimate the mining situation of various jade mines in Myanmar based on the wool materials that appear on the market, thereby inferring the market conditions of the wool materials, and then infer the changes in the jade market.
The mining conditions of most jade mines in Myanmar are kept confidential, so the mining conditions of jade mines can only be inferred based on market conditions. Although the inference may not be accurate, it still has a certain basis.
Although Chen Ran has been accompanying Zhu Feng and the others around, he has a good memory and can be observed while walking around. Moreover, when he was with Zhao Guosheng, Zhao Guosheng also revealed a little bit of this information to him, so
After reading the materials of Zhu Lao and Deputy Secretary-General Li, I also wrote my own investigation report, which is to estimate the various mines in Myanmar. The Jade Association also has its own magazine. After being sorted and reviewed, it will be
If it is published in a magazine, people in related industries will generally buy it. Of course, whether it is authoritative or not depends on the accuracy of the Jade Association's inference.
Zhu Feng and Deputy Secretary-General Li were still a little dissatisfied with Chen Ran becoming a hands-off shopkeeper when he arrived in Tengchong. After reading the investigation report written by Chen Ran, although they did not completely agree with the investigation materials written by Chen Ran, they also saw that
It turned out that Chen Ran had put in a lot of effort, and his analysis was clear and coherent, and somewhat credible. The dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared, and the two of them enthusiastically discussed it with Chen Ran.
After discussing for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, Chen Ran had to interrupt the two of them, and then called Zhang Shuchun, two jade carvers and two staff members to have something to eat. After eating, he and Zhu Feng
They said hello and went out for an on-site inspection. The jade carving competition would start tomorrow, and there would be no time by then. After participating in the jade carving competition, their inspection would be over and they should go back.
Today I am mainly doing jade market research, that is, what products are sold in jade shops here, what styles, types, prices, customer groups they face, and customer flow, and even the decoration of the jade shops must be included.
Internally, these are the work of the Jade Association, because the Jade Association has a regulatory and guiding role in the local jade market.
Chen Ran is happy with it, after all, he is also planning to enter this industry, and now it can be regarded as a market survey.
After traveling to several jade cities, Chen Ran had dinner with Mr. Zhu and Deputy Secretary-General Li at noon. They were both older and tired after walking around all morning. After eating, they also
I sent them back to the hotel.
Chen Ran also went back to the hotel. Zhu Feng and Guo Hai were not there. They probably went out. He didn't contact them. He sent Zhang Shuchun and Yang Shijie away and asked them to go back to the room to rest. He also went back to the room to take a nap.
I slept for a long time this time, and when I woke up, it was already past two in the afternoon.
After waking up, he checked his cell phone and found that there were many missed calls, including those from his cousin Chen Min, Zhu Feng, Guo Hai, and Chen Xiaomei.
Chen Ran saw that Chen Xiaomei had just called him ten minutes ago, so he called Chen Xiaomei first. After two rings, he was connected.
"Brother, guess who my mother and I just saw?" When the phone was connected, Chen Xiaomei's smiling and mysterious voice came.
"Who did you see?" This girl obviously took his bait, so Chen Ran just followed her wishes.
"Hehe, I won't tell you yet, but our mother is angry now and said she will deal with you when you come back." Chen Xiaomei didn't know who she saw, and she was very happy.
Hearing what Chen Xiaomei said, Chen Ran was really curious, but no matter how he asked, Chen Xiaomei didn't tell him, and she didn't tell him secretly until she hung up the phone.
"My mother and I are at Chen Xiaowen School. Our mother is really awesome. Haha, hang up. When you come back, be careful that my mother will deal with you." Before she could finish speaking, Chen Xiaomei hung up the phone.
This girl, Chen Ran muttered angrily, wondering why her mother went to Xiaowen's school. Could it be that Xiaowen caused trouble in school?
It doesn't seem like it when you think about it. Seeing this girl so happy, she even called him specifically to ask him to guess who she had met? Xiaowen School? Haha, she couldn't have gone to see the beauty from Mu School, right?
Chen Ran suddenly thought of the school beauty Mu. Looking at the situation, it couldn't be wrong. Moreover, with his mother's impatient temper, if she knew about his relationship with the school beauty Mu, she might actually be able to secretly meet with the school beauty Mu.
.
Chen Ran didn't have any objections to his mother going to meet the beauty of Mu School, but she was a little speechless. But after thinking about it, she felt relieved. Anyway, she had to meet her sooner or later, so it was better to let them meet her first, but she didn't know how stupid it was.
Does Ni know that his mother went to see her?
Chen Ran couldn't help but feel happy when he thought that his mother secretly met with the school beauty Mu, and that the school beauty Mu was deceived by his mother without knowing it. He originally thought about reminding the school beauty Mu, but after thinking about it, it was better to be natural.
Remind her that she might be nervous. Although he doesn't care how the school beauty Mu behaves, it is still good to leave a good impression on her mother when he meets her for the first time.
Chen Ran didn't think much about it, washed his face and called Guo Hai.
"Damn, I'm still willing to call my buddy. My buddy and Brother Zhu are at the Emerald Time Hotel. Come over quickly." When the call was connected, Guo Hai's shouting was heard. There was some noise there.
, but it didn’t sound like he was in a public place, and he didn’t know where he was. The guy yelled and hung up the phone.
Although Chen Ran was a little strange about how they ended up at the Emerald Time Hotel, he didn't think much about it. He greeted Bawang and Yang Shijie who were sitting in the living room. When he wanted to call Zhang Shuchun, he was informed by Yang Shijie that this guy came back not long after.
So I went to find Guo Hai.
Tengchong Emerald Time Hotel is quite famous and easy to find. It took more than ten minutes to get there.
As soon as Chen Ran walked into the hotel with Bawang and Yang Shijie, a familiar greeting came from behind him: "Brother Chen."
When Chen Ran looked back, he saw a fat man and two people chasing after him panting. This fat man was none other than the fat man Chen Ran met in the stone carving workshop last night, who was also the boss of Jin Furong, Chen Ran.
Ran looked at his business card and knew his surname was Chang.
"Boss Chang." Although Chen Ran was not familiar with Boss Chang, he had seen him before. When he saw it was him, he stopped and waited for him.
"It looks like you, Brother Chen. Are you here to see the raw materials too?" Boss Chang ran up to Chen Ran out of breath and greeted Chen Ran with a smile.
"That's not true. There are a few friends here looking at woolen materials. I came over to see, Boss Chang, are there any people selling woolen materials in this hotel?" Although it was a bit strange why he came here to look at woolen materials, he heard what Fatty Chang said.
, Chen Ran also knew why Zhu Feng and Guo Hai came here. It was obvious that Fatty Chang also came to see the woolen materials, so he stopped calling Guo Hai and went there with Fatty Chang.
"Brother Chen, let's talk as we walk, haha, the wool here is not sold by the hotel, it is the wool for the venture capital company's exhibition. You also know that the price of wool has been rising over the years. The reason is not only the reason in Myanmar.
In addition, it was hyped up by these investment companies. Each of these investment companies is relatively rich. Whether it is Pingzhou or the Myanmar Jade Public Market, the goods are almost divided up by them. Jewelry companies like ours eat the goods.
It’s not even 10% in total. They bought the wool and didn’t untie it. Even if they untied it, it was only half of it. After the price increased, they sold it out..."
When Fatty Chang heard Chen Ran ask this question, he started to spit with Chen Ran, saying that these venture capital companies had hyped up the price of wool, and the price of wool had become quarrelsome, and the price of jadeite had also been hyped up, and their business
It's not easy to do anymore. Chen Ran heard it a little funny. Naturally, he didn't believe this guy's nonsense. I'm afraid they, the jade merchants, just want the price of jade to be so noisy. The wool comes from the sheep and the wool material is hyped.
The money still comes from the consumers, it has nothing to do with them, they still make the money.
When Fatty Chang learned that Chen Ran was also going to the wool exhibition area, he patted his chest and enthusiastically pulled Chen Ran along. Although Chen Ran couldn't stand his enthusiasm, she could only go there with him.
The wool exhibition hall is on the third floor of the hotel. You take the elevator to the third floor and enter a place that looks like a large conference hall. There are quite a few people in the conference hall. Chen Ran is still looking for Guo Hai and Zhu Feng.
Yes, Zhu Feng's shout came to my ears: "Brother, come over here."
Looking around, Zhu Feng was not very far away from him, just eight or nine meters away. Several people were gathered there talking. When they heard Zhu Feng's shouts, Chen Ran and Chang Fatty said hello and left.
After walking over and getting closer, I realized that the person Zhu Feng was talking and laughing with was actually an acquaintance.
This acquaintance was none other than Wu Laosan.
