With Qin Feng's current financial resources, it is not enough to spend time and collect things, because what he makes is high-quality, and since the word "fine" is included, the price will naturally increase exponentially.
You know, the finished jade products carved from the best Hetian jade seeds can range from thousands to tens of thousands, while bulk ornaments are much more expensive than small pendants, ranging from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of thousands.
Not uncommon either.
As for ancient jade, the price is even more outrageous. Prices vary depending on the color, degree of polishing, and age of inheritance. A top-quality ancient jade, even if it sells for millions, is still worth the money.
of.
So the eight million check that Qin Feng took out seemed like a lot, but if all he bought were high-quality jade, he wouldn't actually be able to buy much. I'm afraid it wouldn't even be able to hold the schoolbag he carried.
"Qin Feng, the rules in our industry have always been to pay for the goods with one hand, and the payment must be paid in full..."
After hearing what Qin Feng said, Mr. Zhu shook his head and said: "Your statement of paying a deposit in cash is unprecedented."
The antique shop talks about buying and selling, that is to say, if the item leaves the buyer's hands, it will not be recognized regardless of whether it is true or false. Qin Feng has to pay the deposit first and postpone the payment. I am afraid many people are not willing to do so.
.
"Grandpa Zhu, isn't there a first time for everything?"
Qin Feng said with a smile: "You also know that what I am short of now is the goods. As long as there are goods, if you think conservatively within a month, the capital turnover of 30 to 40 million will not be a problem. Are you afraid that I will not be able to pay?"
"Qin Feng, we know it's useless for you to pay back the money. We need to make others dare to sell it to you."
Zhu Zhengjun is not optimistic about the method proposed by Qin Feng. Nowadays, business people are as smart as monkeys.
Qin Feng wanted to take the things in real money with only a small deposit and an IOU. It was not that difficult, at least for Zhu Zhengjun, he would definitely not agree.
"Uncle Zhu, the reason I'm here is to ask you to release the news about my delivery. As for whether others dare to sell it or not, that's my problem..."
As for what Zhu Zhengjun said, Qin Feng had already thought of it. He didn't think that with his almost zero reputation in the antique shop, he could allow others to lend him high-grade jade on credit.
"Xiao Qin, please tell me how to solve this problem..."
Seeing Qin Feng's mysterious look, Mr. Zhu said: "If you really have the ability to take away other people's goods with a deposit, then the old man will look down on you and help you promote it in Henan Province!"
"Old man, are you serious about this?"
Qin Feng laughed when he heard this. He had heard the name of Mr. Zhu. This old man was a playboy when he was young, but he became low-key in middle age. When he was old, he pulled a cart and took his two sons to collect scraps.
Due to his superior family background since he was a child, Mr. Zhu has studied a lot of antiques. Later, he switched from collecting scraps to antiques business and gained a great reputation in Henan Province. He is also a legend in the antique industry.
Therefore, Mr. Zhu's reputation in the antique shops in Henan Province is still very good. With him coming forward, even if Qin Feng doesn't use his trump card, most people will probably be willing to lend the goods to him on credit.
"Of course it's true, can my old man still fool you?"
Mr. Zhu waved his hand and said: "As long as you can get me to give you something on credit, then I guess everyone in Henan Province will be willing..."
It is true that the old man spends his fortune, but he spends it all on eating, drinking and having fun. He is extremely shrewd in business, and he is also a master who does not let go of eagles when he sees rabbits.
"Good old man, do you think these things are enough?"
Qin Feng stood up and walked to the old man. After disconnecting the wine glass and soup bowl in front of his table, he carefully took out a stack of paper from his bag and placed it on the table in front of Mr. Zhu.
"What is this? IOU? Is this thing useful?" Seeing the two calligraphy characters on the top piece of paper, the old man curled his lips. Who doesn't know how to write IOUs? The key is that no one recognizes this.
Qin Feng said with a smile: "Old man, look down."
"If you look down, it's still an IOU!" Mr. Zhu picked it up, looked at it, and read smoothly: "Qi Gong owes () the payment of () Yuan for the goods, which will be returned within half a year, and the special words are used to prove it..."
In fact, Qin Feng originally wanted to return it within three months, but Mr. Qi was afraid that he would not do things properly, so he only wrote it in half a year. If Qin Feng failed, he would have time to find those disciples to raise funds.
"This...this is the IOU written...by Mr. Qi."
Mr. Zhu, who was still disapproving at first, was shaking a little with his hand holding the stack of IOUs. This IOU not only had Qi Gong's signature, but also his two seals. Judging from the seal characters, it should be Qi Gong.
The handwriting is undoubtedly authentic.
Qin Feng nodded and said: "Yes, the teacher is very loving, but the students are very ashamed..."
Looking at these IOUs, Qin Feng felt as if he had knocked over a five-flavor bottle. He had an indescribable feeling. Although Qi Gong was not arrogant, he was proud and had never bowed his head to borrow anything from anyone in his life.
But when he knew that Qin Feng didn't have enough money for the goods, he immediately called Qin Feng to his home and wrote more than 20 IOUs with his own hand. After writing them, he asked Qin Feng if they had enough.
Qin Feng didn't show anything at that time, but as soon as he left the teacher's house, tears welled up in his eyes. As he grew up, apart from Master Zai's concern for him, it was also Qi Feng who helped him without expecting anything in return.
So if he didn't want to see "Zhen Yufang" go bankrupt because it was sold out, Qin Feng really didn't want to take out these IOUs. After all, this represents the friendship between Qi Gong and Xing Zhong.!
"Mr. Qi... is actually willing to write an IOU for you?"
When Qin Feng nodded, everyone in the audience was shocked. Zhu Kai's uncle and Zhu Zhengjun both stood up and looked at the stack of paper in his father's hand with disbelief in their eyes.
You know, writing these IOUs with blank names and amounts means that Qi Gong is willing to bear these debts. I am afraid that even if it is the relationship between me and my son, I have to think twice about writing this thing.
"Yes, it is Mr. Qi's handwriting. I recognize his handwriting..." Mr. Zhu stared at the IOU for a long time and carefully handed it back to Qin Feng.
At this moment, the old man had more or less guessed that the relationship between Qin Feng and Qi Gong, the master of the domestic antique business, was definitely not just a master-disciple relationship.
If he hadn't known that the master had no heir, the old man of the Zhu family might have thought that Qin Feng was Mr. Qi's illegitimate son or grandson, because apart from this close relationship, he really couldn't figure out why Qi Gong would write these things.
"Qin Feng, how about we discuss it?" After Qin Feng received the IOUs in his bag, Zhu Kai licked his face and sat over.
"What are we discussing?" Qin Feng looked at Zhu Kai strangely and said, "What do we guys have to say that we can't just talk about?"
"Ahem, that's it, Qin Feng, how about you give me an IOU from Mr. Qi?"
Zhu Kai's eyes were fixed on the backpack with the IOU, and he said excitedly: "Brother, I will write you an IOU for 50,000 yuan, and treat it as a purchase of this IOU. How about it?"
No one knew about Qi Gong writing an IOU to Qin Feng. Even Zhu Kai had just heard about it, so he got confused.
Not to mention whether Mr. Qi's handwriting is worth 50,000 yuan, but if he can hold Qi Gong's IOU, he will definitely be able to show off in the industry for a long time.
"Kaizi, do you think I'm a friend?" After hearing Zhu Kai's words, Qin Feng's face suddenly turned gloomy.
"We are buddies." Zhu Kai was confused by Qin Feng's question.
"Brother, please don't mention this matter again."
Qin Feng shook his head and said: "Mr. Qi wrote these things to me to help me tide over the difficulties. If I sell the money from his old man's IOU, am I still a human being?"
As he spoke, Qin Feng glanced at the other people on the table, and then said: "Who wants this IOU? Come with one million jade stones that are recognized by me, and you can keep this IOU for half a year!
But if you don't exchange the IOU for the payment after half a year, I'm sorry, the money can no longer be exchanged. If the uncles feel it is worth it, they might as well exchange it..."
Although Qin Feng took out these IOUs, he did not intend to let them go out.
While filling out the IOU, Qin Feng will also sign a supplementary agreement with the person. If the other party does not accept Qin Feng's repayment within six months, the IOU will be invalid.
As soon as Qin Feng said these words, Zhu Zhengjun, who originally had the same idea as his son, immediately shut his mouth tightly.
Because there are so many written characters, although Mr. Qi is a master figure in the domestic antique and cultural circles, the price of his calligraphy in the market is really not very high. Even if the old man's reputation is added to an IOU, then
It's not worth millions either.
"Ahem, Xiao Qin, don't be angry, Kaizi is ignorant and said the wrong thing..."
Seeing the awkward atmosphere at the wine table, Mr. Zhu picked up his wine glass and said: "These IOUs represent the friendship between your teachers and students. What Kaizi just said was inappropriate. Old man, I apologize to you on his behalf..."
In terms of age, Mr. Zhu is old enough to be Qin Feng's grandfather, but in terms of status and seniority, he may not be higher than Qin Feng. The antique shop is about inheritance. As a Qigong disciple of Qin Feng, he has traveled all over the country's antique shops.
They all don't bow to anyone they see.
"The old man is serious. Kaizi just said it unintentionally. Kaizi and I are brothers, how could he be angry?"
After hearing what Mr. Zhu said, Qin Feng quickly stood up and drank the wine in his glass, and said: "My uncles and elders can only understand the boy's mood. It's really hard for me to sleep and eat well after asking the teacher to help me so much.
"
"Xiao Qin, you are kind and righteous in what you do, and you will have to take care of Kaizi more in the future."
Mr. Zhu also drank the wine in the glass in one gulp and said: "Don't worry, this old face of the old man is still worth a few dollars in Henan Province. I will call you right away and I will make sure you come home with a full load!"
The old man was a generous man, and when he was doing business, he also supported many younger generations. He was considered highly respected in Henan Province, but with him coming forward, he was much better than Zhu Zhengjun.
"Dad, you don't do jade trading, so let's forget about all the stuff you collected. I still hold a share in the "True Jade House" business."
Before Mr. Zhu finished speaking, Zhu Kai, who knew that he had just said something wrong, looked at his father eagerly. He knew that his father had collected a lot of good jade at low prices over the years.
"You brat, you only have such a small share of the stock, and your elbows are turned outward?"
Zhu Zhengjun shook his head with a smile and said: "Qin Feng, after dinner, I will take you to the warehouse to have a look, but let's agree first that the things can be taken away and the price will be according to the market price!"
"Uncle Zhu, don't worry, I won't let you suffer any loss!"
Qin Feng was overjoyed when he heard this. He had heard Zhu Kai say that when Zhu Zhengjun was in the scrap business, he actually bought a lot of good things from those who didn't know how to do it.
