"Brother Feng, is this the call from Lao Li?" After Qin Feng hung up the phone, Xie Xuan said, "Our store is really running out of jade supplies, but we are just waiting for Lao Li to supply them."
This time Qin Fengxi went to Luo City to solve the problem of the supply of Hetian jade jewelry. Although he also obtained a lot of top-quality jadeite, it still takes some time to turn the raw materials into jewelry.
However, the current supply of jade jewelry in "True Jade Shop" exceeds the demand. If Qin Feng hadn't used Fang Yazhi's payment to supply another batch of finished jadeite, "True Jade Shop" would have been sold out long ago.
"Xuanzi, wait another week, and the first batch of goods should arrive."
Qin Feng glanced at Xie Xuan and Leng Xiongfei and said, "When the time comes, you and Fei Zi can take a flight to Guangdong Province. First, you can get to know the jade merchants there, and secondly, you can broaden your horizons and see Guangdong Province."
How do provincial people do business?"
During the thousands of years of feudal emperor rule before the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the status of merchants had always been very low. Although there were groups such as Hui merchants and Shanxi merchants, those people still had little status in the local area.
However, Guangdong Province is different. As a coastal area, they have always had contacts with other countries, and their people's intellectual openness is much greater than that of the mainland. Otherwise, the forefront of reform and opening up would not be placed here.
People in Guangdong Province have long been ingrained in doing business. Qin Feng believes that after Xie Xuan passes by, he will definitely learn something, which will be beneficial to the management and development of "Zhen Yufang".
"Really? Brother Feng, I have long wanted to go to Guangdong Province to see it.
Xie Xuan was overjoyed when he heard this. When Dou Jianjun came last time, he explained the sauna industry in Guangdong Province to him in detail, which made the lustful little fat man feel itchy in his heart.
"Go back home, but you have to arrange things in the store before you can leave." Seeing Xie Xuan and Leng Xiongfei's excited expressions, Qin Feng gave him a slap.
"Don't worry, Brother Feng, Mr. Huang will be able to settle down after the Chinese New Year. With him, there won't be any problems at Zhenyufang."
Xie Xuan drove the car with one hand and patted his chest with the other. In fact, during the past few days during the Chinese New Year, Huang Bingyu had been taking care of the store. Xie Xuan only went to check it out every day.
"Okay, I'll give Lao Li a call."
Qin Feng nodded. Xie Xuan was good at doing business. However, due to limited conditions before, Xie Xuan's vision was still a bit poor. Now he can run around and learn more about outside things.
"Huh? I also got a call from Lao Dou who asked you to go to Guangdong Province."
Just when Qin Feng was about to call Li Yongqian, the cell phone in his hand rang. He checked the caller ID and it was Dou Jianjun who had been away for a few days.
"Boss Dou, happy new year, may you get rich!"
After answering the phone, Qin Feng used a favorite blessing from Guangdong people. In the past few years, Andy Lau and other stars sang that song on the Spring Festival Gala. During the New Year, it could be heard everywhere even in the streets and alleys of Beijing.
Sayings such as "Congratulations on getting rich".
"Boss Qin, congratulations on getting rich, congratulations on getting rich!" Dou Jianjun's voice sounded a little hollow.
There were also the sounds of firecrackers and vernacular talking everywhere.
"Boss Dou, where are you?"
Qin Feng is a person who is extremely gifted in languages. He can understand all domestic dialects, large and small. If Dou Jianjun was in the Chaoshan area, the people there should speak in Chaoshan dialect, but what came on the phone at this time was vernacular.
The so-called vernacular is actually the term for Cantonese. In the Pearl River Delta, Hong Kong and Macao, local people basically speak this language, but in places like Chaoshan, people do not speak vernacular.
"Boss Qin, I'm in Hong Kong Island."
As expected, Dou Jianjun's words confirmed Qin Feng's guess, "I originally thought about calling you when I get back, but Old Dou, I couldn't help but tell Boss Qin first..."
Although Dou Jianjun lives in Jieyi all year round, he is from Hong Kong Island. He also has a wife and children there, and he celebrates the New Year in Hong Kong Island from time to time.
Because he wanted to sell Qin Feng's jade set, Dou Jianjun immediately arranged for someone to take the jade items through customs after returning home from Jintian, and he also arrived at Hong Kong Island at the same time.
After several days of contact and negotiation with the buyer, Dou Jianjun finally concluded the deal on New Year's Eve yesterday.
The jade set was sold by Dou Jianjun to a well-known businessman and collector in Hong Kong Island for 8.88 million. This number, which meant making a fortune, made Dou Jianjun and the buyer very happy.
Dou Jianjun used to be in the smuggling business, and most of the time he only dealt with smuggling. As for the business, there were professionals on Hong Kong Island, so although he took the greatest risk, he didn't make much money.
In this direct transaction with the buyer, according to the commission given to him by Qin Feng before, Dou Jianjun can get 40% of the 8.88 million, which is more than 3.5 million, which is close to what Dou Jianjun usually smuggles in a year.
Earned money.
"Boss Qin, I will go back after the third day of the Lunar New Year." Dou Jianjun's words were full of excitement, "Don't worry, I will convert all the money into RMB and clean it up."
This transaction was in Hong Kong dollars. Between 1999 and 2000, the exchange rate of Hong Kong dollars to RMB was slightly higher. Excluding Dou Jianjun's 40%, Qin Feng could still get nearly 6 million.
"Old Dou, you don't need to bring this money out."
Qin Feng thought for a moment and said, "Open an account for me at HSBC Hong Kong, convert the money into US dollars and deposit it in. Maybe you can use it in the future..."
The suffering he suffered as a child made Qin Feng always feel insecure. He has never been willing to put all his eggs in one basket. Opening a US dollar account in Hong Kong Island can be regarded as leaving a way out for himself.
Moreover, after contacting Henry Wei, Qin Feng also had some thoughts about the gambling industry, because the gambling industry was originally a branch of Qianmen, and Qin Feng was well aware of the huge benefits involved.
Of course, entering the gambling industry is not as simple as opening a shop like "Zhen Yufang". It requires not only extensive contacts, but also strong capital. Qin Feng's little money is naturally not enough.
However, a single spark can start a prairie fire. Qin Feng is not a rigid person. If there is a good opportunity, he will violate his teacher's training and use gambling to accumulate capital as quickly as possible.
It's just that Qin Feng is still young and his conditions are not yet mature in all aspects. Naturally, he will not reveal this meaning. Not even Xie Xuan and others with whom he has the closest relationship have revealed it.
"Boss Qin, don't worry, Old Dou will definitely handle this matter for you."
After hearing what Qin Feng said, Dou Jianjun agreed wholeheartedly. To be honest, when he received the more than 8 million Hong Kong dollars, Dou Jianjun was a little tempted and thought about the possibility of taking advantage of others.
However, this thought only flashed through his mind for a few seconds before he was killed by Boss Dou. Qin Feng's use of a wooden knife to cut off the robber's head that day really made Boss Dou do a good job after he returned.
A nightmare for a few days.
Coupled with the previous inexplicable death of Zhao Fengjian, Dou Jianjun himself did not know that he had already developed a fear of Qin Feng in his heart. He did not dare to think deeply about Qin Feng's plot.
"Boss Qin, the art market has been very hot in recent years. Many people here on Hong Kong Island want to invest in some domestic things. I wonder if you have any good items there?"
After chatting for a while, Dou Jianjun turned the topic to business. This time he made a deal with the big businessman, which can be regarded as a line of communication and he can talk directly with the buyer.
"Old Dou, let's not mention this matter for now..." Qin Feng interrupted Dou Jianjun and said, "How is your inquiry about my sister going?"
Qin Feng searched all over Beijing, Tianjin and other places but could not find any trace of his sister. He suspected that she had been abducted by human traffickers and taken to Guangdong Province.
Therefore, Qin Feng did business with Dou Jianjun, firstly to make money, and secondly, because he wanted to use Dou Jianjun's connections on the Guangdong provincial road to find out information about his sister for himself.
"Boss Qin, I have asked someone to copy and send out the photo of my little sister, but there is no feedback yet."
Dou Jianjun heard the urgency in Qin Feng's words and said quickly: "Boss Qin, don't worry, in Guangdong Province, all the three religions and nine schools will give me Dou some face. As long as my little sister is here, I will definitely find her."
from……"
"Okay, Boss Dou, I won't bother you anymore. I will send you another painting after a while..."
Qin Feng sighed after hearing this. With a population of more than one billion in the country, trying to find his sister was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Qin Feng really didn't have much hope in his heart.
"Brother Feng, don't worry. My little sister, Jirentianxiang, will be fine."
After Qin Feng hung up the phone, Xie Xuan comforted Qin Feng. He and Li Tianyuan both knew that Qin Feng killed someone in anger for his sister.
"I hope so."
Qin Feng looked at the bustling crowd outside the car window, but he missed his sister more and more in his heart. The scenes of the two relying on each other for so many years flashed through his mind like scenes in a movie.
"Jiajia, where are you?" Qin Feng closed his eyes slightly. If possible, he was willing to use everything he had now in exchange for the whereabouts of his sister.
When Qin Feng stopped talking, the atmosphere in the car suddenly became a little silent. Even Henry Wei, who had only interacted with Qin Feng a few times, could feel the faint sadness on Qin Feng's body.
"Hey, why are there so many people in Panjiayuan today?"
Leng Xiongfei's exclamation made Qin Feng wake up from his sadness. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the car was parked in the parking lot of Panjiayuan.
To describe the situation in front of me as a huge crowd is not an exaggeration at all.
At the gate of Panjiayuan, there is a bustle of people wearing new Chinese New Year clothes coming in and out. Children can only sit on the shoulders of adults, otherwise they will be squeezed out accidentally.
"Qin Feng, this...is this the Panjiayuan you are talking about?"
Henry Wei, who had always lived a reclusive life in the capital, almost dropped his jaw when he saw the scene in front of him. In his memory, even during the most prosperous period of the Aodao Casino, it had never been as lively as before.
"That's right, Lao Wei, let's go and have a look at our own store!" The noise of the adults and the shouts of the children suddenly made Qin Feng feel enlightened.
As Xie Xuan said, lucky people have their own destiny, and my sister should be living a happy and healthy life now, maybe even among this crowd, I can't tell.
