Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

There were not many people inside, but in front of almost every stall, there were people looking carefully at the antiques and even bargaining.

Seeing such a scene, even Yang Jianlong became a little excited.

It seems like I have returned to the days when I was shopping for goods in Panjiayuan.

"Sir, please show me your invitation letter." A staff member walked up to the two of them and looked at Yang Jianlong with a smile.

Yang Jianlong didn't speak, but took a step back.

The staff looked at Lin Ran in astonishment, and saw Lin Ran take out the invitation letter from his jacket pocket.

"Okay, it turns out they are from the Ming Qin Chamber of Commerce. Please take a look." The staff signed the invitation, bowed slightly and left.

"This trade fair is quite stylish," Yang Jianlong said, "but it always feels like it lacks some market atmosphere."

When Lin Ran and Yang Jianlong walked into the hall, they felt that the atmosphere here was completely different from Panjiayuan.

The first is the issue of decoration. The interior looks quite luxurious and elegant, with marble columns dividing the entire hall space into several exhibition areas.

There are some vendors in each exhibition area, and the stalls are filled with exquisite antiques.

And behind them, some exquisite antique furniture will be displayed - screens, bookcases, chairs, etc.

There are also calligraphy and paintings on some stalls, which look from a distance to be of a certain age.

There are even stalls displaying a large number of jade articles, and the dazzling array of jade handicrafts all exude a long historical atmosphere.

As soon as you enter the venue, you will be infected by the rich cultural atmosphere of the trade fair.

The hotel's lobby is directly connected to the roof, and sunlight pours into the lobby through skylights.

There are also many skilled staff pushing carts back and forth in the hotel, and tourists ask them for wine and beer from time to time.

In addition, the hotel's speakers are playing melodious classical melodies.

Lin Ran and Yang Jianlong both felt that this was not like an antique trade fair, but more like a social dance of the upper class.

But the antiques placed on each booth tell everyone that the antiques that can be placed here are all priceless treasures.

In Panjiayuan, you can often see people dressed simply. It’s not that they really have no money, but it’s better to bargain with merchants if they wear ordinary clothes.

But here, everyone is wearing designer clothes.

It can be said that the disguise has been taken off, and there is no need to hide that one is rich.

Those who can enter the high-end antiques fair are business tycoons, or at least children of wealthy families.

Some people even brought professional consultants, holding magnifying glasses in front of the stalls, carefully inspecting each antique, and chatting in low voices.

Transactions will appear orderly.

It's just that Lin Ran and Yang Jianlong often frequent market places like Panjiayuan, and they seem a little out of place when they see this kind of trading environment.

"Jianlong, haven't you been to a high-end antique fair before?" Lin Ran asked.

"My dad has been here before, but I..." Yang Jianlong said with some embarrassment, "As you know, I didn't know anything about antiques before. Dad thought it would be too embarrassing to bring me to this kind of transaction. I’m blind, so you never call me.”

Lin Ran specially brought him here today, and Yang Jianlong was quite happy, finally feeling like he was being taken seriously.

When Lin Ran said that he wanted to cultivate himself, Yang Jianlong quickly waved his hand and said, "Godfather, this is not possible. I am not studying antiques."

Since following Lin Ran's advice and starting to study management courses, Yang Jianlong has gradually found his area of ​​expertise.

He doesn't know much about antiques, but because of his birth, he can clearly see the flaws in interpersonal relationships and point them out sharply.

After taking the management course, Yang Jianlong controlled the atmosphere of the team very well. Everyone would not form various small groups like friends, and at the same time they would not be alienated from each other. They could cooperate with each other in such an environment, but There will be no separate chain of interests.

This is also where Lin Ran is satisfied with Yang Jianlong.

Yang Jianlong actually wanted to learn more from Lin Ran, but when it came to antiques, he really felt that he was not the material for this.

Moreover, there are already many senior masters in the shop, such as Wu You. With them here, the professionalism of appraisals must be much higher than mine.

"Being able to recognize your own shortcomings is also an improvement." Lin Ran smiled.

He didn't expect that Yang Jianlong would answer him like this.

In the past, Yang Jianlong looked like he was the only one in the world.

In fact, only those who are ignorant will feel that they are powerful.

The stronger a person is, the more he can see his own shortcomings and become more humble.

Yang Jianlong has gradually developed this quality, which makes Lin Ran very pleased.

"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to learn to appreciate antiques." Lin Ran said, "This antique store will also be integrated into our group business, so you need to learn how to manage an antique team."

"Aren't antique shops all run on a small budget?" Yang Jianlong was a little surprised.

Although Tianlexing has branches across the country, chain stores like theirs mainly rely on Zheng Xueming's connections.

Most antique shops are actually mom-and-pop shops or solo operations. After all, there is a well-known saying in this industry——

Don't open for half a year, open for half a year.

This kind of store wants to use the management model of a handicraft store, but Yang Jianlong always feels a little uncomfortable with it.

"Don't worry, the antique store is actually the same as the handicraft store, except that the products in it are not produced independently by us."

"You have to learn to manage your employees and train them in some speaking skills so that they can better communicate with customers and sell at higher prices."

"The other thing is how to control the overall situation. From supply of goods to after-sales service, all one-stop rules and regulations must be designed."

Lin Ran described his plan.

In the fantasy, he clearly remembered that in the later period, the Lin Group was no longer an ordinary group enterprise focusing on handicrafts, but was developing into diversified fields, including the real estate industry.

With his business vision, he can naturally see the profits in the real estate industry.

But Lin Ran was originally reluctant to engage in this industry.

But in the fantasy, Lin Ran was married to Yuan Qianyun, and the Yuan family was engaged in real estate.

In fact, Lin Ran doesn't mind expanding the business scope to make the group bigger.

But the only thing he regretted was that he finally let go of the antiques.

After returning, Lin Ran decided to correct this.

No matter what direction the group will develop in the future, the basic point cannot be mistaken, it is an antique!

Even if you give up other industries, you cannot leave behind the antiques industry.
