108、Everyone gets what they need, and there are people in the world who ask for help
108. Everyone gets what they need, and everyone has someone to ask for in the world.
Although Wu Jiaming did not mention on the spot that Luoluo "collected" the same piece of porcelain, Luoluo himself felt a little embarrassed. Cheng Tianle's words just now made Luoluo feel that he had found a step down. When he continued shopping
She couldn't help walking side by side with Cheng Tianle and said in a slightly self-deprecating tone.
: "Mr. Cheng is really insightful. I won't be afraid of making fun of you if I tell you. I also have a similar fake blue and white porcelain in my collection. After being reminded by Mr. Cheng, I know what to do. If I have a chance, I will find another genuine one to put with it. Normally.
Take a look at it yourself, and if guests come, you can also use it as an allusion to chat with them."
Cheng Tianle asked with great interest: "How much did you spend on it?"
Luoluo seemed a little shy and replied: "I'm really ashamed. I was slapped. It cost 80,000 yuan." In fact, she spent not only 80,000 yuan but 200,000 yuan, but she was afraid that Tianle would laugh, so she tried to keep it as small as possible. But at the beginning
When Wu Jiaming told Wu Jiaming the price of the jade Guanyin piece, in order to show off, she obviously spent only 120,000 yuan but said it was 300,000 yuan.
Cheng Tianle was startled a little and took a step forward while walking. Luoluo took advantage of the situation and held his arm and said: "The road is uneven, be careful not to sprain your feet!" and just held him up.
Her perfume smelled very good, and Cheng Tianle said very gracefully: "I should be the one holding you up." As he spoke, he couldn't help but think of the scene when Liu Shujun held his arm while shopping on Shantang Street.
It was a long time ago, but now there was another beautiful woman beside me, and her identity was completely different.
Although Cheng Tianle didn't know much about collecting, he also knew that it was impossible to buy a complete Kangxi blue and white piece for 80,000 yuan! He held Luo Luo's arm and said matter-of-factly: "I want to buy it for 80,000 yuan."
Real Kangxi blue and white porcelain? This is too cheap. There is no such thing as cheap in the world. Were you lucky at that time?"
Luoluo lowered his head and said: "Yes, you are absolutely right! I just thought it was cheap at the time. If I buy the wrong one, I won't lose much. If I buy the right one, I will make a lot of money, so I bought it."
This is the mentality of a businessman, which is not suitable for collecting."
Cheng Tianle smiled and said: "It doesn't matter whether you have a businessman's mentality or not. The key lies in probability. In that case, there is almost no possibility of being right. If you include the probability of buying right and the probability of buying wrong, it is not suitable to make a move.
." After working in the trading department for such a long time, I can talk about these simple principles of profit and loss all day long.
Xiao Su, who was behind, saw Cheng Tianle's lecturing tone and was afraid that Luo Luo would lose face, so he quickly came over to interject and liven up the atmosphere. Somehow, he talked about an interesting anecdote from last year. There was a person holding a very funny "Tang Tang"
"Ancient Painting", I went to a TV treasure appraisal program to ask experts to identify it. When I opened it, I saw that the Beijing-Shanghai Railway Bridge was painted on it!
Several people had heard about this incident, and they were still amused when talking about it. After everyone had finished laughing, Cheng Tianle said calmly: "Xiao Su, we are really destined. Today is the first time
When we met, you mentioned that painting, and it happens to be in my hand now."
Su asked in surprise: "What a coincidence! How did Mr. Cheng get that painting?"
Cheng Tianle explained with a smile: "I also watched that TV show, and then I went shopping on Shantang Street. I happened to see that painting being put on consignment in a shop, so I bought it for only 800 yuan.
Money. In fact, as far as modern paintings are concerned, that painting is quite good and definitely worth the money."
Su nodded and agreed: "Mr. Cheng has such a vision! That painting has such an allusion, which is also one of its values. If it is good in itself, it is definitely worth collecting. Aren't the so-called ancient paintings today just the new paintings of that year?
?So which of today’s works will become collectible artworks in the future? Maybe they are collected by people like you, Mr. Cheng.”
Cheng Tianle felt very comfortable being praised, and he laughed and said: "Xiao Su, you don't need to call me Mr. Cheng, just call me Lele. My name is Cheng Tianle, and many people call me Lele."
Luo Luo took over the conversation: "Your name is Le Le? I am Dong Luo. Many people call me Luo Luo. Our names are very similar!"
It was interesting to walk around the street today, and I was accompanied by two beauties. If I had to choose between the two beauties, Cheng Tianle would be more interested in Xiao Su. This does not mean that he has any thoughts about the girl, it is just that he is very interested in Xiao Su.
It’s just a natural comparison. And Luoluo originally followed Wu
Jia Ming came, but at this moment he was more interested in Cheng Tianle, and even held his arm. When a strange man and woman met for the first time, it was impossible to say that there was any relationship, it was just a hazy feeling. The behavior of modern urban men and women
They are often very generous, and their ideas are often even more generous.
After visiting the antique market, Cheng Tianle generously treated the guests to lunch, but Wu Jiaming rushed to buy the order. Then he took a car to the Jade City, and the blue and white jar was also put into the trunk of Cheng Tianle's black Mercedes-Benz. They
The four of them came with three cars. Luoluo had his own car and Xiao Su was the driver. Wu Jiaming did not drive his own Fukang when he saw this, but became Cheng Tianle's driver.
Passengers were exchanged.
Naturally, Wu Jiaming did not visit any ordinary places in the afternoon. Wu Jiaming went directly to the studios of several jade carving craftsmen. He should be familiar with these people and introduced many fine Hetian jade products. Luoluo bought two of them, and this girl took action
It was indeed very generous. It cost more than 200,000 yuan at that time, and
And she looked very happy. It’s not that she spends money like this every day, but it’s a rare opportunity today. Under the guidance of a knowledgeable person, she can also see the jade carving author himself explaining the material and knife skills of each piece to her in detail.
The conception of creation, the artistic conception and theme expressed, etc.
Such purchased handicrafts are much better than those made by oneself. If you take them back and put them at home or in the living room, and introduce them to friends, they will look more dignified and tasteful. At least they will not make the insiders laugh.
.And Hetian jade carvings with real artistic value will also appreciate in value in the future.
Cheng Tianle had been paying attention to the introductions of Wu Jiaming and the craftsmen, and rarely interrupted to discuss anything. Later, he also bought a few things - Hetian jade seeds that had been simply peeled and polished. These were not jade carvings and were placed in the shop.
Li mainly wanted to show the raw materials to the guests. He took three pieces of walnut-sized jade and asked how much it cost. As a result, the craftsman took one look at Wu Jiaming and decided to give it to him for free.
I had a great time shopping this day, but Luoluo still had guests to socialize with in the evening, so he had to say goodbye in advance with regret. Before leaving, he said that he would make an appointment to hang out together again. After the two girls left, Cheng Tianle took three pieces of jade
The source asked Wu Jiaming: "To be honest, how much is this thing worth?"
Wu Jiaming replied: "It depends on what kind of material it is. The price of jade materials has increased now. Although the three pieces you got are not big, they are all good seed materials. If others buy them, they will cost at least more than 10,000 yuan. Even if they are given to you,
The cost price is several thousand per piece."
Cheng Tianle asked again: "Then why did they give it to me for free? I saw you winked at the jade carver, what was your code?"
Wu Jiaming smiled: "I just told him that you are one of my own. In fact, he has already made money. Luoluo bought two things, one for 120,000 and the other for 150,000. The one with 150,000 was in
He bought it in his shop. Jade is the hardest thing to value. For truly good jade carvings, the material cost often does not exceed 30%, and the carving work accounts for more than 70% of the selling price. That is what he earns.
money.”
Cheng Tianle sighed with emotion: "The craftsmanship of those two jade carvings is indeed good. It is difficult to price art. Time is the real appraiser...The jade carver was willing to give me these three pieces for free because you made a
Wink, and how much commission can you get for introducing customers to buy things?"
Wu Jiaming replied with some embarrassment: "The commission is 20%. Thanks to you, Luoluo was very generous today, and I made fifty-four thousand! Even if the three pieces of jade I gave you will be recorded in my account
Come on, then you will get fifty thousand net today."
Cheng Tianle was surprised: "You have made so much!"
Wu Jiaming quickly explained: "This is a door-to-door business, which means they picked it up, and artists are also human beings, and they also need to eat! The jade business is very profitable, and they often don't open for several days.
Nothing can be sold, but as long as a few items are sold, it can cover one or two months' expenses. Isn't it normal in the industry to give me such a business agency fee? This is not money fraud!"
Cheng Tianle frowned and said, "But the wool comes from the sheep, and that's Luoluo's money."
Wu Jiaming smiled again: "Hey! Are you talking about her? I am helping her save money. You have never seen her room of fakes. After your guidance and teaching, I am not lying at all today.
Meaning, she wouldn't be able to buy something like that at that price elsewhere.
, let alone through such a method! I just do serious business, and introduce her to the way of collecting art based on my skills and connections. Those craftsmen are all famous and distinguished, not to mention the carvers.
You don’t even dare to play tricks with me when it comes to materials.”
Cheng Tianle thought about it and felt that it was true. The employees in their trading department who were engaged in market development also received business commissions. It couldn't be said that they shouldn't get it, so he sighed: "Wu Jiaming, if you have the ability, just go shopping."
If you can earn 50,000 yuan, why did you do those deceptive things in the first place?"
Wu Jiaming looked down at his toes and explained weakly: "It is impossible to always have such luck. It was not easy for me to get to know this Luoluo. I also spent a lot of effort on her. It was not until today that I had the opportunity to make one.
This business is still entrusted to you
I'm here to support you, this kind of business is so hard to come across. Sometimes people inevitably have opportunistic ideas to make faster, more, easier money, and even get cheated. But I remember you.
