More than ten years ago, the Minute Temple area was still prosperous, unlike now, where it has been demolished and demolished so much that you don’t even recognize the mother anymore.
At that time, many businessmen who worked in Panjiayuan lived together in Minute Temple. Of course, many white-collar workers who worked in Jinsong International Trade also lived in that area.
I drove Jinbei to help Liangzi move, knowing that he had no money, so I helped rent a temporary stall in the Panjiayuan greenhouse area for three months.
After that, they have to pay the stall fee and rent on their own for three months. If they can't make money, then they are not suitable for this industry and should go back to their hometown.
It was around 8 o'clock in the morning, and the stalls were set up, but the market hadn't started to be crowded yet.
I took out my cigarette and walked around the stall owners with a smile. I didn't ask each other's names, just to make each other familiar, so that if you have something to do or go to the toilet, people around you can help look after you.
"Did you see? It's starting to hit people."
I shook the bell casually and said loudly: "When the bell rings! Ten thousand taels of gold!"
People were coming and going, and all morning I sat on the horse and watched without saying anything.
Not a penny of the goods was sold, but many people stopped by our stall to watch and ask questions, which proved that the goods I prepared were attractive enough.
I am also very particular about this spread.
Black velvet is used as the base, and a white towel is laid on the last part. People look at it. At first glance, they can distinguish between three, six and nine, which means that the things on the white cloth are good and the things on the white cloth are expensive. (In fact, they are all the same, they are all tatters.)
.
During lunch, the little brother and sister said dejectedly: "Brother, I see that everyone around me is selling for money, but Liangzi and I haven't sold for a penny. What should we do?"
I smiled and said, "Brothers and sisters, don't be discouraged. It's my turn in the afternoon. I'll stay here for half a day. You should pay attention to how I negotiate business with people."
At half past one, an old man wearing glasses wandered to my stall and stopped.
I immediately handed it over to Mazar.
"Don't sit down anymore, young man! I'll just take a look!"
I held up the maza and said, "It's okay, sir. Sit down and we won't laugh. You have a rest."
The old man saw that this young man of mine was so polite, so he sat down.
"Huh? This thing is great. When was this jade made?"
I hurriedly said: "You have good eyesight, sir. I collected this from the countryside of Inner Mongolia. I don't know what kind of jade it is."
The old man adjusted his glasses. He took out a folding magnifying glass from his coat pocket, lowered his head and studied it carefully and said, "This thing of yours... I think it may be the sun god of the Hongshan Culture period."
"Really, sir?"
"I seem to have heard people say this before. I don't understand the main reason. I just collect and sell blindly."
"How much do you want young man?"
"Uncle, if you like, just give me 800 yuan. Someone gave me 600 yuan before, but I didn't sell it."
"Hey, young man, you should sell it for 600 yuan. It's a lot. I can only give you 400 yuan at most."
I sighed: "Hey, I regret it too. It's hard to do business now. There are still few people like you who know the goods. So, don't let me pay too much. I feel bad if I pay too much.
Just five hundred yuan."
The deal was quickly concluded, and I watched the old man leave happily.
I handed over the money: "Liangzi, have you seen it?"
"Brother, didn't you say that our minimum asking price for this jade is five thousand?"
"No, you have to look at who you are and what price you offer! You can't be rigid. It looks like this old man bought it blindly with his pension. You have to set the price within his tolerance range. Anyway, we just make a profit.
Brothers and sisters, please check your account book and see how much this item cost."
She quickly took out her little account book and flipped through it, then whispered: "Brother, we bought this thing for 15 yuan."
I nodded and said, "The profit is not bad. Remember what this old man looks like. In the future, whenever he passes by, pull him over and sit with you."
"What, you have a psychological burden? Are you embarrassed to say lies?"
Ryoko lowered her head and said yes.
I sighed: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, and money is not easy to make. After this step, you will feel better. If you can't live anymore, there is nothing to be afraid of."
"I have something to do and I have to leave soon. I'm going to give you three suggestions, and you must do them."
"First of all, this kind of business is like fishing. You have to sit still. No matter it's windy, rainy or hailing, you have to go out on time every day. Just take your children with you."
"Second, build a good relationship with the market management department and the security guards, and give them more cigarettes if you have the opportunity. You don't have your own circle here. Once you are bullied, don't confront each other, go directly to the market management
Complain to the Department.”
"The third thing is that you two should pay attention and take measures to avoid accidentally having another child. If you want to, wait until your family is rich in a few years and you are officially married."
"why are you crying?"
"It's okay, brother, I'm just touched. Don't worry, my brother will settle the account tomorrow. I'll remember all the money, and I will definitely repay you double in the future!"
"Okay, let's wait until you have money. Let's go."
"I'll send your brother off."
When we came out of the market shed, I helped Liangzi straighten her collar and said with a smile, "Remember to ask your wife to dye her hair back when you have time."
Liangzi smiled and said: "I know brother, Xiaoying also mentioned something to me yesterday. She has a good sister who is quite pure and well-behaved. She knows you are single and wants to introduce her to you."
I kicked him on the butt and cursed: "Get out of here! Go back and look at the stall."
The reason why I help Ryoko so much is actually because I have some considerations of my own.
As the largest cultural relics distribution center in the country, Panjiayuan has many experts behind the scenes. If Liangzi really gets started, then maybe he can be my direct sales channel in the future.
The selling prices of the things we get out of tombs are generally low because one of them has to be eaten. If I had my own direct sales channel, the annual profits would be even more impressive.
The market was bustling with people. I was strolling to the north gate when a young man in his twenties and carrying a black backpack walked towards me. This man passed me by and I subconsciously stopped.
.
I frowned and looked back, and saw that he also stopped and looked back.
We didn't speak to each other, we just stared at each other for a few seconds, then turned around and left.
Panjiayuan is a mixed bag of good and bad people. This person must be a fellow traveler. He smells earthy and must have been to the tomb in the past three days.
Walking into a luxuriously decorated boutique jade shop in Dingpai, I stared at the glass display case for a long time.
The pretty female shop assistant asked softly: "Hello sir, what would you like to see?"
"Is there any good jadeite in the shape of a safe lock?" I asked.
"No sir, but we have high-quality glass safety buckles here."
"I don't want that thing. Is your boss Zhao in the store?"
"Yes, the boss is accompanying the guest. I'll call him for you."
A few minutes later, a middle-aged man with a rich temperament wearing casual clothes came over.
When he saw me stunned for half a minute, he suddenly laughed and said, "Who did I think was looking for me! It turned out to be you, little brother!"
Boss Zhao is the person who saw my Blood Agate back then. This person is not good-looking, but he has strength.
I said that I wanted to find a good jadeite as a gift. He warmly invited me into the back room to have tea and talk. When I entered the room, I saw a black leather stone on the table and a man in his fifties wearing a hat.
man.
"It's been two years since I last saw you, little brother. Sit down, we are discussing business."
After listening to my request, Boss Zhao thought for a while and said: "Safe lock... I don't have one, but my friend has one. It is carved from a piece of top-quality yellow jade. The external price is fifty, but the actual price is
It should be about 20, can I get it for you?"
"Brother Zhao, it doesn't matter how much it costs. I think the yellow emerald green is a bit low-grade, not as good as the imperial green. A friend of mine is getting married, so I'll give it to him."
"Haha! Little brother, you are so serious!"
"How can imperial green be so easy to find? Top-quality yellow jade is rare enough. Besides, your friend is getting married and you insist on giving something full of green. Do you think this gift is suitable?"
I was stunned. I really hadn't considered this. When I thought about it carefully, I realized that it was indeed a bit unlucky.
"Well, I don't know if your friend, Brother Zhao, is free. If so, let him send the things over. As long as I like them, I won't bargain."
"No problem, he lives not far away. Little brother, please wait a moment, I will ask him to bring something over."
After he finished speaking, he called and asked his friend to deliver the Huang Fei safety lock.
At this time, the man in his fifties stood aside and said: "Boss Zhao, you have to make up your mind quickly. If you don't want it, I will sell it to someone else."
"What are you in a hurry for? I'm not doing research!"
He dimmed the lights in the room, picked up a flashlight and pointed it at the black stone. He immediately saw a breathtaking green color the size of a fingernail! But except for this green point, the rest of the stone could not be penetrated by light. This
It's a high-quality pigment from an old pit.
I watched it for a while and felt that this black stone was very interesting.
This stone is very strange. Its shell is very tight, which means that the jade inside must be fine, but there are no python belts, pine flowers, etc. that can be seen on the whole body. On the contrary, there are large black spots on the shell of the stone.
This kind of black spots is called "black moss". If the black moss grows in, it will be nothing but rubbish and useless bricks after cutting it.
If it doesn't grow in, but only grows on the shell, in this case, it's easy to get the awesome imperial green color inside.
Boss Zhao put down the flashlight and shook his head: "Brother, I'm a little unsure. You are also a master, so you might as well give me some advice."
My heart is clear.
He is the master. He must be well aware of the problems I can see. He asked me because he wanted to give himself an excuse to buy it.
So I smiled and said: "Brother Zhao, wealth can be found in danger."
"What a man who found wealth in danger!"
He slammed the table and said loudly: "That's the price just now! You go to the front desk to get the money! I bought it! Cut it now!"
I paid the money and cut it on the spot. It was cut out in less than fifteen minutes. Damn, I was envious... The black moss didn't grow in. There was a green mass in the middle of the stone the size of an egg! It was almost there.
It’s the level of imperial green! With this kind of quality, just grinding a ring egg noodle will start at 400,000 yuan.
Boss Zhao was overjoyed and thanked me profusely. Then his friend brought the Ping An Lock over. I fell in love with it at a glance. The yellow Fei Ping An Lock seed water far surpassed the chicken oil yellow, and the variety almost reached the ceiling.
The front was engraved by master craftsmen with the words "Hundred Sons and Hundreds of Fortunes", and the back was engraved with the words "Ping An Ji Xiang". Boss Zhao helped me spend another 20,000 yuan, and I finally spent 170,000 yuan to buy this gift.
The next day, Monday, Brother Yu and I went to the carport to take a look. After seeing that our tricycle was safe, we drove to Zhengding.
Some people may think: "Aren't you afraid that someone will push the wrong car and push you away?"
Will not.
Sister Niu knows who parks the car and who stores the goods every day. Even if two tricycles are the same color and size, Sister Niu can tell them apart 100%. This is called "professional".
It's possible now. Friends who live in Beijing, if you don't believe it, go to the parking sheds in Warwick Xili Community and try it out to see if it can be rolled out smoothly.
friendly reminder:
Someone has done this before, and their legs were broken.
