Chapter 97 Imperial Capital Jade Fair
The next morning, after Xiao Xingyun attended the opening ceremony of Gu's Jewelry, he drove to Panjiayuan, the imperial capital with Luo Dazhao.
The full name is Panjiayuan Fresh Goods Market. It is famous for its complete range of goods, long transaction time and large customer flow. It is also the "national most comprehensive collection market".
In the circle, Panjiayuan has a special status and is the holy place in the hearts of many antique and cultural relics collectors.
It is now divided into six business areas: street stall area, ancient building area, classical furniture area, modern collection area, stone carving area, and catering service area.
It mainly deals in ancient items, jewelry and jade, handicrafts, collectibles, decorations, etc.
Originally there was a jadeite area here, but now the Jadeite Jade Fair is held, and the proportion of jadeite is simply magnified in an instant.
The two of them took turns driving, and there was no delay on the road. They arrived at the booked hotel at 7 pm.
Hua Liuyi had already arranged a table of food for them, saying that it was to welcome them.
After Xiao Xingyun and Fatty Luo finished their stay, they arrived at the nearby hotel room. In addition to Hualiuyi, there was also a man in his forties, who was chubby and had a smile on his face.
In the imperial capital, you can be assured of personal safety, but you have to be careful of the intrigues in gambling stones.
Both parties introduced each other.
The man brought by Hualiuyi is named Zhang Heng, and his main business is also jade. When they encounter high-quality sources of goods, the whole family cannot afford them, so they often join forces to win them. They usually have a good relationship, so they bring him here.
When Xiao Xingyun introduced Fatty Luo, he said that he was a closed disciple of Professor Sheng Hainie and had a lot of knowledge about jadeite and was friends, so he took him to attend this exhibition.
This time I had a meal, I could only say that I met each other and enhanced my relationship. It was impossible to talk about cooperation at the dinner table, which was unrealistic.
After three rounds of drinking, Xiao Xingyun suddenly asked, "Mr. Hua, Boss Hu of the Treasure Pavilion, I heard that he is very famous in the circle. Do you know her?"
Hua Liuyi and Zhang Heng changed color slightly, but with the help of alcohol, they were not silent.
"You are talking about Hu Lili, the boss of Treasure Pavilion? That woman is not simple! In fact, the store was originally opened by her father, but later her father owed gambling debts and usury and was forced to run away. She didn't know anything.
The college graduate, after taking over, actually survived."
"After Hu Lili took over the treasure pavilion, her business had just improved, but her father came back and wanted to take back the store... It was very cold that winter. On a snowy night, her father was drunk and frozen to death in the snow.
, the matter of taking back the store will naturally be left alone.”
"At that time, I was just in contact with the jade industry, and I didn't hear much about her. It was just that her treasure pavilion became bigger and bigger, becoming one of the best antique shops in Pan's homeland. Everyone's methods of treating her,
It’s okay if you don’t want to accept it.”
"A lot of rumors, which started to spread from then on, some people said that her father was frozen to death in the heavy snow, which was a bit strange. The police also investigated her because her father's former usury creditor, drove a car after drinking and fell to a cliff.
Below... It's such a coincidence, isn't it?"ъÊìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
Hua Liuyi and Zhang Heng said one by one, and treated some of the rumors as stories and told them to Xiao Xingyun.
Xiao Xingyun was terrified when he heard it and vaguely remembered the dream in Ruili Hotel, Hu Lili in the dream, and the terrible experience of being forced into debt by those creditors.
She had enough reason to hate her father and those creditors who forced her debts!
So, the deaths of those people... are indeed worth pondering.
As for the rumors that followed, Xiao Xingyun could no longer be scared. There were many men who pursued her. Some people gave her sports cars and some gave her villas, but she refused.
She said that her methods were not clean, the origin of the antiques in the store was unknown, and she secretly colluded with the tomb robbers, and hired a murderer to hurt people in order to steal a certain antique.
After listening to Hu Lili's gossip news, the meal was over.
After the meal, Hua Liuyi and Zhang Heng proposed to ask Xiao Xingyun and Luo Dazhao to go to the bathing club to experience the enthusiasm of the people of the imperial capital.
Xiao Xingyun and Luo Dazhao refused... In fact, Xiao Xingyun refused. Luo Dazhao returned to the hotel with Xiao Xingyun, watched TV honestly, and passed the time.
Xiao Xingyun thought to himself that he had finally had a day off, but these people actually wanted to bring themselves into dire straits. I wonder if my buddy's body could not hold on anymore?
Fatty Luo: A full man doesn’t know that a hungry man is hungry!
But in order to bet on stones with Xiao Xingyun, Fatty Luo decided to endure it.
the next day.
Xiao Xingyun and Fatty Luo were wearing simple and cheap clothes and took off all the valuable turquoise bracelets and watches on them.
The two of them wanted to make up a character for themselves. Jade lovers who came to the imperial capital to travel abroad have heard that there is an exhibition here, so they came here to try their luck.
Because the owners of jade raw stone shops, especially these professional traders with strong liquidity, are all old people who look at people serving food.
The same piece of jadeite rough stone, ordinary people asked for a price of 100,000 yuan. If he saw a big boss with a nouveau riche asking for a price of 1 million yuan, he would dare to offer a price of 1 million yuan.
Why did Xiao Xingyun always want to hide his identity and deliberately buy some garbage materials to cut? It is to reduce the vigilance of jade merchants and prevent them from speaking out loud and making bad-hearted prices.
The time of the exhibition is different from the usual business hours of Panjiayuan.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, the Jade Jade Exhibition Area was already crowded. Jade Jade merchants and collectors from all over the country could not wait to enter the venue and look for their own opportunities to make a fortune.
On the way back, Xiao Xingyun and Luo Dazhao have discussed several cooperation routines, and can perform on the spot at any time according to the situation.
The first step is to try the price range of the exhibition and see the prices from Ruili, Sihui and other places, which are obviously different.
After entering the jade exhibition market, Xiao Xingyun walked in front, and Luo Dazhao followed him six or seven meters behind him, like a stranger he didn't know at all.
Xiao Xingyun walked to a booth, pointed to a piece of 6 or 7 kilograms of gambling materials, and asked, "Boss, how do you sell this piece of raw stone?"
The store owner is a woman of 37 or 38 years old, with a bit of mature charm. She first looked up and down at Xiao Xingyun and smiled and said, "The handsome guy also likes to bet on stones? This piece is the material from the Moxi battlefield, and others can get 35 yuan.
Starting from ten thousand yuan, you can just give 300,000 yuan.”
Xiao Xingyun smiled. The characteristics of the raw stones are very obvious. As long as they are not brushed with leather materials, ordinary stone gambling experts can easily distinguish them.
However, the materials at the same field outlet are divided into different levels, and the price difference is also very large.
This area is not very gambled, and the market price is about 200,000 yuan. Although she is not too cheating, she is not a real person.
Of course, people really can't be a jadeite rough stone merchant.
Xiao Xingyun smiled and said, "Sister, are you interested in my appearance? I will give me 50,000 yuan at once, and I am afraid I will lose the motivation to fight!"
The charming female boss thought he was interesting and couldn't help laughing and said, "Puff... little brother, stop talking, you are my first business today, you can take it away for 280,000 yuan, this is my cost price.
Wait for a while, my man will come, he won’t sell you at this price.”
"Oh? Sister means, let's make trouble with your man behind your back?" Xiao Xingyun's eyes lit up and he said terrifiedly.
The female boss was so angry that his eyes were drawn, and he pretended to be angry and said, "Go to you, you are not big or small, you want to tease me early in the morning? Do you want it?"
At this moment, Luo's ultimate move, which was gestured behind Xiao Xingyun, finally appeared.
"Boss, what is the price of this stone?" Luo Dazhao asked carelessly with his voice.
In fact, there is an unwritten rule for the jade gambling circle, which is that the same raw stone is not allowed to ask when others ask, and it means competition.
However, in big cities, there are not so many rules for special gambling stone markets in Ruili and Myanmar.
The female boss knew that Fatty Luo was a newbie gambling stone, or just a passing tourist, and replied angrily: "350,000!"
