Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning
Chapter 2369: Is this the master?
Lin Ran listened and laughed: "That's it."
Zhang Fengyu was right. Domestic businessmen wholesaled the rough stones from here, and used them as raw materials for stone gambling and as window material for auctions. They must have been carefully screened at all levels.
In fact, everyone knows that it is definitely the cheapest to buy things in the country of origin. However, in the 80s, it was not a simple matter to go abroad. First, you must have a guarantee from a formal organization, and secondly, you must get a large number of Heap of proof.
Unless they were smuggled over the mountain road, the money for the formalities would be enough for them to buy another batch of rough stones.
Looking back at the venue, there was indeed a group of people who didn't care about the quality of the stones at all. They directly asked the boss for the price, and if they were suitable, they would buy them in bulk and ship them back to the country. This kind of people was actually cheating, taking advantage of their relationships to make profits from it.
Of course, not all of these bad guys came here relying on official connections. Many of them just relied on a pair of legs and a car to sneak around the border. In the words of these people, they gained wealth through danger.
"Brother Lin, in fact, the rough stones out there are of relatively average quality. The pieces of jadeite you opened are definitely top-notch. There must be many people in the venue now asking for news about you."
"Will Ke Hui and the others be okay?" Lin Ran suddenly thought that it would be safer for him and Zhang Fengyu to be together, but Chen Li and the others were different. They were still in the venue, and it would be troublesome if they were targeted. .
"Don't worry, Brother Lin's friends are my friends. I have arranged for people to take care of them." Zhang Fengyu said with a smile, "Actually, what I want to tell you is that the afternoon auction is the highlight."
The window materials sold at the auction are all window materials. You can see at a glance what kind of water-growing materials are outside. The window materials of average quality are displayed in the market outside. Although they are also bidding, there are definitely not many people bidding. .
The auction is different. The rough jade stones on display at the auction all started out as ice species, and water cultivation is the highlight.
Seeing Lin Ran's silence, Zhang Fengyu smiled slightly: "We will probably encounter some strong competitors this afternoon. Brother Lin, it's up to you whether we can make money."
"Is there anyone who can compare with you, Brother Zhang?" Lin Ran joked.
"Of course, do you think that only Yun Province has jade merchants? And there is more than just Ruili in Yun Province." Zhang Fengyu's expression looked a little solemn, and the competitors he mentioned were equally matched with him, so they would definitely be difficult to deal with.
"I can only say that I will try my best, Brother Zhang." Lin Ran smiled awkwardly. Even if the secret technique of treasure appraisal can be used to explore the internal situation of the original stone, there are many restrictions. First, he must be able to touch it with his hands for at least 30 seconds. time.
"I believe you." Zhang Fengyu said, "It doesn't matter even if you mess up."
The last sentence was simple, but it put an invisible pressure on Lin Ran.
After eating, it was almost time, and the group of them walked towards the auction venue.
There was already a queue at the door of the auction. Lin Ran looked around and didn't see Ke Hui and the others. He thought they would be worried about him and come to the auction to see the situation.
Originally, Chen Li also had plans to participate in the auction, but now he has given up the idea. After all, he has already obtained a large amount of top-quality materials, which will be enough for them to work on for a while. There is no need to spend a lot of money to buy some more. The quality may not be comparable to others. Go back to the good jadeite in the rough.
"Don't worry about them." Zhang Fengyu saw Lin Ran looking around and smiled, "I have already booked a hotel for Chen Li and the others. I will send you there after the auction."
Zhang Fengyu spoke like a gangster. If Lin Ran didn't know who he was, what he said just now sounded like Zhang Fengyu had controlled Chen Li and the others. If Lin Ran messed up the matter, he would It's like killing people and silencing them.
After the party entered the venue, Lin Ran discovered something. He originally thought that seating here was by number, just like the auction house.
As a result, when you enter, it is like another trade fair venue, except that all the stones are placed in display cabinets and can be viewed through the glass.
There is also a number placed in front of the glass cabinet of each stone, which represents the number of the original stone.
Now that he could self-identify, Lin Ran could show off his skills. He quickly got into the mood and came to the booth to observe each other's jadeite exhibits.
What Zhang Fengyu said was true. The jadeite stones placed in the main venue, whether on the surface or in the windows, were all top-notch stones.
When Lin Ran saw the good-quality wool, he stepped forward to check it out.
Just like the trade fair, buyers are allowed to shine the flashlight next to the cabinet and touch it with their hands, but they are not allowed to pick it up.
The euphemistic name is that they are worried about breaking the glass, but in fact they are probably worried that others will weigh it. After all, the experienced stone masters in their mines can judge the quality of jade by weight. This rule is also set up to prevent others from being weighed. People take advantage of loopholes.
Lin Ran was observing the wool, while Zhang Fengyu and his assistant were watching Lin Ran's every move silently.
One thing Zhang Fengyu was even more convinced of was that Lin Ran did have some unknown secrets.
Although he is like other people, he will shine a flashlight on the surface of the jade stone and look into the cracks in a serious manner.
But the time he stayed in front of the piece of wool was very short, and he usually left after a quick glance.
Zhang Fengyu's assistant felt that Lin Ran was just fooling them and was perfunctory.
"Mr. Zhang, is the person you came here early reliable?" Assistant Xiao Min said softly.
Xiao Min met Lin Ran for the first time and took over Zhang Qiang's job.
She saw that Lin Ran glanced at most of the woolen materials without any appraisal. If she didn't know Mr. Zhang's vision, Xiao Min would have thought that the boss had been deceived by a charlatan.
"Ha, just watch from the side." Zhang Fengyu said with a nonchalant look. He remembered that his bodyguard also said the same thing in the morning. Others would stay in front of the stall for a long time for fear of missing the stone. Lin However, on the contrary, they rarely stayed in front of the stall for a long time, but one thing they also noticed about the stones was that Lin Ran's accuracy in picking stones was ridiculously high.
Zhang Fengyu felt that Lin Ran was not pretending to be like this on purpose, but was really confident.
"Really?" Xiao Min pouted. Although her main job was to collect money, she also regarded the company as her own career. Seeing Lin Ran's passive attitude towards work, she felt angry.
Is the young man in front of me so charming?Mr. Zhang rarely shows trust in someone.
But the boss said so, and she couldn't talk much, so she could only follow behind silently.
