When Wang Ding came to the entertainment city, he did not go directly to the sixteenth floor. He met Geng Zhi on the first floor. Knowing that this boy was going to the sixteenth floor to see the jade exhibition, Geng Zhi took a leave and accompanied Wang Ding there.
I got on the elevator, closed the door, and the elevator began to rise with a ding.
"How's it going? Have you and Xiang Hong developed anything these days?"
Wang Ding leaned on the elevator and asked casually. He sighed repeatedly, "Ahem, don't mention it. It's a shame. She could be invited out for tea by me before, but now she doesn't answer my calls."
It seems like there is really no hope."
"Don't be discouraged. As long as the iron pestle is ground into a needle, you have been pursuing it for so long. Keep working hard."
"Let's talk about it again." Geng Zhi seemed to have lost the lofty ambitions he had at the beginning, but without mentioning Xiang Hong, Geng Zhi poked Wang Ding in the arm. "By the way, Wang Ding, what do you think about opening a jewelry and antique store?
How's it going? I'm waiting for your reply. Although Xiang Hong is out of business, I won't change my idea of starting a business."
Wang Ding could see Geng Zhi's determination, but Wang Ding had really thought about this matter during this period. It was possible to open an antique store and a jewelry company, but Geng Zhi wanted to open an antique jewelry store.
The store is a bit unrealistic.
Jewelry and antiques are two different markets, and they are completely unrelated. The antique market is basically only visited by those who love collecting, while the consumers in the jewelry market are diverse.
"Geng Zhi, I have considered this matter. In fact, this is my opinion. Because antiques and jewelry are not the same consumer market and consumer groups, it is unrealistic for them to open a store together. If it is really possible, I would suggest you open one.
A jewelry company, as for me
Yes, I can cooperate with you, but I don’t know much about the jewelry industry now. I need a certain amount of time. If you are not in a hurry, just wait for a while. After all, I think you also need to investigate this market, including new stores.
The location selection, supply and so on.”
For Geng Zhi, Wang Ding knew that this kid must have a fixed customer base, otherwise he would not be able to make such a noise, but for jewelry sales, if there are customers, there must be a supply of goods.
If you want to open a store, you must first fill it up. You need to find a source of goods, and you need to have high, medium and low-end goods. If you don't prepare in the early stage, then the store will be empty, and it will definitely be deserted.
Geng Zhi nodded, "Actually, my original intention was to open a jewelry company, but you don't know much about this industry, so you brought in the antique business. Now that you have said so, everyone will be happy. I will consider your suggestion.
When it arrives, I will contact my friends to help me get some goods. The gold market is now sluggish and volatile. If I want to do it, I will specialize in jewelry, natural gems, jade and colored stones, as well as organic gems. What do you think?
How about it?"
Geng Zhi's understanding of jewelry is definitely beyond what Wang Ding could have imagined at the moment. Wang Ding has seen and heard about natural gems, jade and colored stones, but Wang Ding really doesn't understand what organic gems are.
"Brother Geng, to make you laugh, I really don't know what organic gemstones are."
"Ahem, what's the point? I didn't get into this industry before and didn't know anything. Organic gems mean that these gems contain organic materials. They are all derived from animals, plants, and living things. Such as pearls, corals, amber, and coal.
Jade, ivory, clams, etc. are all derived from living and biological materials. Therefore, they are called organic gemstones.
Crystals, cat's eyes, and tourmalines are all inorganic gems. Organic gems must be related to animal and plant activities and obey the laws of biophysics and biocrystallization mineralogy. Therefore, they cannot be artificially synthesized. Inorganic gems are different.
It can be artificially synthesized, such as artificial diamond, artificial crystal, etc."
"Ah, I understand. It is precisely because of the existence of synthesis that there are fake gemstones on the market. I have seen plastic pearls, which should be imitated based on the chemical composition of gemstones."
"Yes, you are absolutely right. In fact, strictly speaking, artificial gemstones are divided into synthetic gemstones and imitation gemstones. There are actually a large number of such imitation gemstones on the market. How can there be so many synthetic gemstones for customers to buy?"
To put it bluntly, I have sold "Soviet diamonds" that are imitation diamonds, that is, cubic zirconia, and jadeite made of glass. The knowledge in this circle is huge."
He was honest and said that Wang Ding didn't know, but after he really understood it, Wang Ding realized that there was so much knowledge in jewelry.
"In this regard, it seems that I will have to communicate and learn more with you in the future."
"Let's learn from each other. I think your understanding of Chinese nephrite is better than mine. Including jade, I think you are above me. I just have a deeper understanding of gems than you."
The two of them were humble to each other, and then the elevator door on the sixteenth floor opened.
With a ding, Wang Ding and Geng Zhi walked out of the elevator.
…
"Five, four, three, two, one, zero"
In the last five seconds, Wu Baipo raised his right hand high in the air and twitched his fingers. The audience in the audience also shouted with him, looking forward to the show that would be performed in five seconds.
With a bang, the lights in the exhibition hall suddenly went out, and Wu Baipo's loud voice sounded at the same time as the lights went out, "Please don't panic, the show will start soon, please wait carefully for ten seconds."
People's hearts were not excited enough at first, and the atmosphere at the scene was warm, but not hot. But when the lights went out, and several beautiful women's voices shouted in surprise, the men became excited, and the women were frightened and looking forward to it, and fearful.
The uneasiness made him break out in sweat.
Bang bang….
The lights were turned on again. At this time, several counters had been set up in the center of the exhibition hall, and some strange-shaped stones were placed on top of these counters.
They have different colors, some have a yellowish surface, some are grayish white, some are black, and some have a brick red color, and their sizes vary. Some are as big as a fist, but some are in the same square shape.
"Is this gambling stone? The woolen material of gambling stone."
An old man in his sixties shouted out first, and with his voice, everyone's eyes focused on these stones.
There are five counters in total. The woolen stones of two counters have had windows cut out, or the edges of the stones have been broken and scratched. The other two counters are made of stuffy wool that has not been cut or polished. The last counter has
There is just a card introduction with five words on it: Produced by Laochangkou. Next to the counter is the multi-sided giant gambling stone.
