The customers who won the bid went downstairs to check out happily, and those who didn't win didn't complain too much. After saying hello to Xue Chen and Wang Dong, they were ready to leave.
"Brother Xue, remember to notify me next time there is a similar trade fair." Xiao Kun, the owner of Longhao 4S store, said with a smile.
"Brother Xiao, don't worry, I will definitely do it. No one will forget you if you forget me." Xue Chen agreed wholeheartedly.
"Mr. Xue, this is my business card. I am also very interested in antiques. I hope to learn more from you in the future."
A middle-aged lady with a plump body, white and tender skin, and well-maintained skin took out a fragrant pink business card from her bag and handed it to Xue Chen's hand.
Xue Chen hurriedly agreed: "Ms. Zhao is too polite. Let's discuss it together and make progress together."
"Xue Chen, Manager Wang, I'm leaving. I like this bracelet very much. The report will be out in less than two days." Lin Xirong raised her bright wrist and showed off the bracelet she had just secretly photographed.
string.
Xue Chen said: "Reporter Lin took the trouble."
"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Lin Xirong smiled slightly, twisted her waist, and went downstairs.
"Xue Chen, the fair was well organized and very successful. I'm going back first. Don't worry about the pawn shop. Let's get some rest before going to work." After Shen Wanjun praised it, he left with Shen Zixi.
When all the exhibition accessories were taken away and the last group of guests were sent away, Fatty Wang held a calculator in one hand and a stack of receipts in the other, the fat on his face trembling with excitement.
"Lao Xue, guess how much all the pendants were sold for in total?"
"How much?" Xue Chen didn't calculate it carefully.
"Twenty-one pendants, the highest one sold for 49,000 yuan, the lowest one sold for 18,000 yuan, even the fan bone that I didn't like was bought for 23,000 yuan, always
The price is... 490,000! I've calculated it three times, it's definitely not bad!" Wang Dong said excitedly.
"Four hundred and ninety thousand, that's a lot." Xue Chen was overjoyed, not only because of the huge profit, but also because of the huge psychological satisfaction.
If he hadn't recognized that the noodle shop's plaque was made of old Indian sandalwood, the plaque would still be hanging on the noodle shop as a signboard. Maybe in a few years, the plaque would be obsolete. However, this
The plaque happened to be discovered by him and carved into a work of art, which was sought after by many people. This feeling is wonderful.
"Yeah, I didn't expect it to be so much. Excluding the processing fee and the cost of setting up the exhibition, it was 450,000. The plaque bought for 150,000 tripled the net profit, 300,000.
Ah!" Fatty Wang clicked the calculator in his hand, and spittle flew everywhere.
In the past two days, the two of them had broken their legs and worked hard for the trade fair. However, the joy brought by the net profit of 300,000 yuan at this time completely washed away the fatigue.
I feel indescribable freedom and lightness all over my body.
"Three hundred thousand, Lao Xue, I never dared to think about it before. A month ago, if this store's annual net profit was three hundred thousand, I would be happy even in my dreams." Fatty Wang sighed with emotion.
"Work hard, this is just the beginning. I believe that Excellence will be made into the largest antique store in Haicheng City, and even the largest chain antique store in Yunzhou Province. Branches will be established in every city." Xue Chen stood there.
In front of the window, looking at the bustling street scene in the distance of Haicheng City, Haoqing said.
Wang Dong was shocked by Xue Chen's ambition. If he said it was possible to become the largest in Haicheng City, he had never dared to think about opening branches all over Yunzhou Province.
However, looking at Xue Chen's back standing in front of the window, inexplicably, Wang Dong also developed strong self-confidence in his heart, and he took a deep breath: "Do it! Open a branch and make a lot of money!"
Xue Chen once again mentioned to Wang Dong that he could give some bonuses to the three clerks in the store. After all, the three clerks were also very dedicated to their duties. Wang Dong readily agreed and announced that each of the three clerks would receive an additional one thousand yuan in salary at the end of the month.
money bonus.
This decision made the three clerks smile with joy, thanked them repeatedly, and called the store manager mighty.
Xue Chen did not make this decision privately. Even if he proposed it directly, Wang Dong would not disagree at all, but he still proposed it through Wang Dong's mouth. After all, he could not stay in the antique shop forever. After all, Wang Dong
Dong is in charge, and Wang Dong speaks out, which also makes the three guys have a greater sense of belonging to Excellence and more enthusiasm for work.
Although it was only one o'clock in the afternoon and still early from get off work, Wang Dong readily asked the three guys to get off work and go home early.
"Old Xue, let's go to Jinjingshuanghuang to have fun together, eat some food, and sing some songs." Wang Dong suggested carelessly.
"It's okay to eat, but forget about singing. With your broken voice, singing with you will hurt your ears. It's simply torture." The exhibition successfully made a lot of money, Xue Chen was also very happy, and it was worth celebrating.
He smiled and insulted Fatty Wang.
In addition to making money, this exhibition will definitely increase the reputation of Excellent Antique Shop in the circle. Although it is still not as good as the two or three top antique shops in Antique Street, it has steadily stepped up.
Entered the upper class among the second class.
Moreover, taking advantage of this trade fair, he made friends with many more prestigious people in Haicheng City, and his network of connections became increasingly dense, which would be of great benefit to his future development.
Wang Dong blinked his little eyes a few times, not caring that Xue Chen hurt him. Instead, he laughed and looked at Xue Chen with a disdainful look: "Are you really stupid or just pretending? Singing is not important. What's important is
The first few words."
"If you like singing, then sing it yourself." Xue Chen was not very interested in Wang Dong's little thoughts.
Although he is now in contact with all kinds of people and has seen many complicated things, it is like being in a big dye vat, but his "roots" have not changed. He does not want to get involved in those messy things unless necessary.
.
"Okay, I listen to you and don't sing." Wang Dong saw that Xue Chen didn't have that intention, so he could only obey.
After pulling down the rolling shutter door and locking it, the two of them came to the street. Wang Dong quickly opened the car door and jumped into the driver's seat: "Lao Xue, I'll drive."
As soon as the car drove out of Sandao Street, Xue Chen answered a phone call.
"Hello, Mr. Xue Chen, I am Huang Jingming from Fuji Auction." Mandarin with a Hong Kong accent came from the other end of the phone.
Huang Jingming, Vice President of Xiangjiang Fuji Auction Yunzhou Branch, Xue Chen quickly thought about it in his mind.
"Hello, Mr. Huang." Xue Chen replied with a smile.
“Mr.
To expand market share, there must be no mistakes in the auction items. Therefore, I would like to invite you to come over and conduct a more detailed and accurate appraisal of some of the auction items. Moreover, you are now working as a technical consultant of our company, and there are still some procedures to go through.
of."
"no problem."
Xue Chen immediately agreed. Just when he was a little helpless because of the large amount of spiritual energy that the black ancient jade lacked to fill up again, someone came to give him a pillow.
"Thank you very much. This auction will be held in the autumn two months later. However, we need to do publicity in advance, so I hope Mr. Xue will come to the company as soon as possible." Huang Jingming said happily.
"Definitely." After agreeing, Xue Chen hung up the phone.
"Whose phone number is it?" Wang Dong asked curiously.
"The vice president of Xiangjiang Fuji Auction Yunzhou Branch." Xue Chen replied.
"Tsk tsk, Lao Xue, you can do it now. All the people you contact are vice presidents and big bosses. You really belong to me. To be honest, when I planned to give you half of the shares in the antique store, although I didn't feel bad, I didn't feel bad.
I wonder if he is old and his brain is no longer bright, but now it seems that I can see clearly, but I have taken a big advantage." Wang Dong sighed.
During this period, the changes in Zhuoyue Antiques Store were earth-shaking. The promotion, newspapers, and trade fairs were beyond his wildest dreams, and all of these were attributed to Xue Chen.
Xue Chen shook his head and smiled: "Dongzi, please stop being pretentious."
"Old Xue, what I said is true." Wang Dong emphasized.
"Okay, if you want to thank me, do something practical. Don't just show it in words. Share the profit of 300,000 yuan from this exhibition with 200,000 yuan, and you can take 100,000 yuan. How about that?" Xue Chen
He glanced at Wang Dong.
Hearing this, Wang Dong blinked his eyes, and after a long time, he uttered one word: "Vulgar!"
When the car was about to reach the magnificent place, Xue Chen received another call. To his slight surprise, the caller was Yang Guang, who wanted to treat him to dinner.
Xue Chen simply asked Yang Guang and his girlfriend Zhao Lili to go to Jinbihuihuang. He also told Yang Guang that Wang Dong was also there, and it happened that the three old classmates were getting together.
"Who?" Wang Dong couldn't help but ask when Xue Chen mentioned his name.
"Yang Guang and his girlfriend Zhao Lili want to treat me to dinner, so I'll just ask them to go to Jinbihuanghuang to find us." Xue Chen said truthfully.
"Yang Guang? How come you have any contact with him? When we were in college, he was nothing like us." Wang Dong said in surprise.
"I met him when I was buying a car a while ago. His girlfriend is a salesperson at a 4S store." Xue Chen explained.
Xue Chen has only been to this splendid place once. Sun Jinyang of Zhenbaoxuan invited him here in order to attract him. This is his first time to come here to spend money.
The Lexus parked steadily in the parking space in front of the splendid door. As soon as the two got out of the car, a brand-new JEEP parked next to it. The man and woman who got out were Yang Guang and Zhao Lili.
Wang Dong and Zhao Lili got to know each other briefly, and the four of them walked towards the splendid main entrance together.
"I come to Jinbihuihuang often. I also know the lobby manager here. When I was having dinner with my friends, I even went over to have a drink." Yang Guang said in a leisurely tone.
Although he was shocked by Xue Chen's generosity and restrained himself a lot, due to his personality, he often couldn't help but show his sense of superiority.
Xue Chen smiled and said nothing, but Wang Dong squinted his eyes and said carelessly: "Okay, let me settle the bill with old Xue Lai. You can just tell the lobby manager and get a 20% discount."
"Well……"
This sentence choked Yang Guang. He knew the lobby manager, but the lobby manager may not know him. Even if he knew him, he was just an acquaintance. How could he give him a 20% discount? (To be continued)
