Chapter 2194
Her younger brother is a warm-hearted baby. Le Yun hugged his soft and fragrant little brother and kissed him again before letting him go. She went back to the bedroom and changed into a modern suit as quickly as possible. Wearing Hanfu when going out was too high-profile. Must change clothes.
It might take several days to come back after going out by herself, and she couldn't ask others to help wash the clothes. She took the clothes she changed and washed them to dry in the fumigation room.
I packed another duffel backpack and a cross-shoulder backpack for my belongings. I took ten bundles of cash from the space and stuffed them into the backpack for spare use.
After packing his luggage, classmate Le went to the west courtyard and found Elder Zhuo of Guanyin Hall who was busy moving and sorting books. He said that he had to go out for something and asked the elder of Guanyin Hall and several senior brothers to go to the east courtyard to keep Leshan company in the evening.
Naturally, accommodation has been arranged. They can stay in guest rooms in the outer courtyard, or meditate in Jiudetang or the nave of the kitchen.
Elder Zhuo didn't ask the little girl where she was going. He nodded happily and promised that he would take good care of Leshan, so that she could go about her business without worries.
Because he was in a hurry, Le Xiaoxiao didn't waste much time. He explained which boxes in the east courtyard kitchen contained ingredients, and then quickly drove the helicopter to the airport.
The helicopter parked at the airport helipad, and she went to the terminal to collect tickets and exchange for boarding passes. She entered the airport and boarded the plane in less than half an hour. Fortunately, she had a helicopter to transport her, otherwise she might not have been able to catch up in time.
The flight took off to the capital of Yinnan Province after 2 p.m. and arrived in Kunming, the capital of Yinnan Province, at 8 p.m.
Little Loli got off the plane and went to the terminal, then bought a night flight to Mangshi, Dezhou, west of Ynan Province at 4 in the morning.
It's past eight o'clock at night in Kunming, and it's not completely dark yet.
Classmate Le originally wanted to call Yang Tuhao to communicate with her, but then she thought that she had another purpose in coming to Ynan Province. If Yang Tuhao knew that she came to Ynan Province and was an enthusiastic local guide, she might get him involved. Something is wrong.
It was not a good time to visit relatives and friends during her trip to Yinnan Province, so she gave up the idea of catching up with old friends and had dinner at the restaurant in the terminal. She found one in the corner of the terminal lobby with a charging station area. position, took out the handheld computer and connected the external USB flash drive, and worked tirelessly as a tool for writing test questions.
The little Loli is also wearing a hat that travelers love to wear. If you don't look closely, you can't see her face clearly. She has a backpack on her chest to cover her figure.
She dressed up like an ordinary traveler and stayed in the corner, playing on her handheld computer in a low-key and quiet manner. Naturally, she did not attract attention and was not harassed.
No one disturbed her, so Le Xiaololi happily worked on her own tasks. She wrote several sets of test questions for junior high school and high school. She worked until about three o'clock in the morning, exchanged her boarding pass and entered the check-in room.
She took advantage of the time she was waiting to board her flight at the airport and successfully took out two high-numerology test papers. It was not advisable to use the computer after boarding the plane so she could catch up on her sleep.
The flight from Kunshi to Mangshi is a small plane. Because it is economical and affordable, there are many people on board, and there are only a few empty seats.
Most of the people travel to the border or go to Ruishi specifically to gamble on stones and purchase goods, or transport some items that are popular at the border to Mangshi or Ruishi.
The flight took more than an hour and landed at Mangshi Airport. It was only five o'clock and the sky was already dark as day.
Classmate Le followed the crowd out of the terminal, took the shuttle bus to the city, and went straight to the Gambling Stone Market in Mangshi to catch the morning market.
The morning market in Jade Market is very lively, no less than the evening market in Rui Market.
There are not only travelers and people who specialize in searching for treasures, but also many podcasters carrying goods.
The streets were full of people coming and going.
The sellers in the morning market and evening market are all mobile. The merchants have to rush to the next one. Large pieces of jadeite are not convenient to carry. The jadeite materials on the stalls are basically small and medium-sized or small pieces.
There are also unwritten rules in the jade market. Quotations and negotiations cannot be made openly to avoid being overheard by others. Generally, sellers use calculators to press numbers, and buyers also use calculators to press numbers or use mobile phones to press numbers.
In order not to become a free publicity worker in the eyes of bloggers carrying goods, Le Xiaololi took out a surgical mask, put it on, and sneaked into the morning market with her bag on her back.
It's been a long time since I've been gambling on stones or shopping for purchases. I finally had the opportunity to use my bargaining skills, haggling happily with others, and enjoying the fun of bargaining.
The morning market is so big that you can walk around in two circles. Le Yun looked around and bought a few pieces of secret materials, and even missed a piece of top-quality blue jadeite grown from Laokeng glass.
Unfortunately, it is small in size, only a little over two kilograms.
After visiting the morning market, Classmate Le looked for a place to have breakfast, and then headed to the Jade Trading Area in Mangshi.
People come and go in the jade trading area every day. Regardless of whether the trading volume is large or not, it cannot be compared with being deserted.
Little Loli has a very good memory, and she discovered that many merchants in the Mangshi Jade Trading Area had the same materials that she had when she came to Mangshi. Some of the materials had been turned over and over, and the sand on the shells had been worn away. , it feels smooth.
Several years have passed, and no one has taken over some of the materials, which shows that they are really not favored by others.
There is a backlog of leftover materials in the trading area, as well as materials that have flowed in from other places in recent years.
New and old ingredients are all available.
Lexiao, who was wearing a mask that covered most of his face, wandered into the market, scanned it with his eye plug-in, and went straight to the shop or stall with the strongest aura.
One of the objects I found was a shop where there was a top-quality semi-clear floating flower, and two more pieces hidden among piles of jadeite rough.
The little Loli pulled out two pieces of dark stuff with the strongest spiritual energy. One weighed more than ten kilograms, and the other weighed less than ten kilograms. She also picked out ten pieces of dark stuff with very good spiritual energy.
In the past, she felt that she had robbed a large amount of jade from some Feitoujiang clan and had a rich collection, so she naturally looked down on those mediocre materials.
After a trip to Dongchen Continent, she felt that the more jade the better.
What's more, there is a little gold-swallowing fox beside her who likes to eat jade. If he really wants to eat it, no amount of stock will be enough.
The little fox loves to nibble on jade. In order for him to work, he naturally has to do what he likes, so it is necessary to collect inventory.
Since some jadeite is used as food for little foxes, the quality is more important than the shape.
In order to collect rough stones, Le Xiaoxiao relaxed the conditions. It doesn’t matter whether there are strands or not, whether it is lightning locks or ponytails, whether it is one crack or full of cracks, as long as the quality is good and the spiritual energy is strong, everything is fine.
Moreover, the stone gambling this time was also to conceal his true purpose of coming to Ynan Province, so he might as well take the opportunity to purchase a large batch of materials.
She piled up the secret materials she pulled out, then ran out to pick at other piles of rough stones, and pulled out five more pieces of materials. The speed of picking was like a vegetable island entering the jade market for the first time, and she didn't know how to pretend at all. Understand.
The shop owner looked calm on the outside, but he was smiling on the inside. The rough jadeite merchant’s favorite customers were rookie-level customers.
However, his happiness only lasted until the 'rookie' customer came to negotiate the price. When the novice customer quoted the price, the shopkeeper almost jumped up.
The bargaining is too harsh!
Who told her this price-breaking rule of cutting off two-thirds of the price just by opening her mouth?
The shopkeeper's smile was stiff: "Miss, at your price, it's impossible to negotiate business anywhere." "
How is that possible? In the past few years, in Rui City, Yingxian County, and in Myitkyina, all the markets are based on this price. When betting on stones at such a price, the quotation rules were personally taught to me by an old senior in your jade industry."
Le Yunhun didn't care and threw aside a piece of rough stone that seemed to be on the verge of collapse: "You won't pay the price I offered. Accept it. I can't accept the price you quoted. It seems that we can't agree on this stone. Then we are out and we can continue to talk about the next piece." "We can still talk about it." Seeing
a customer transfer a piece of stone to The ten kilograms of stones were ruled out, so he immediately took a step back, and while there was no one around, he asked in a low voice: "Which old man in the jade industry revealed to you the rules of the rough stone shop?" "Oh, you ask that
? This senior, as you jade merchants should all know, is Mr. Ji, the supreme general counsel of the Jewelry and Jade Association."
Ji Lao, the boss of Xinyu Pavilion, is a true jade connoisseur and has a great reputation in the jade industry.
It's not that Mr. Le is randomly trying to attract hatred for Mr. Ji, but Mr. Ji once said that although her bargaining was fierce, it was completely within a reasonable range. If someone suspected that she was a swindler, they could report his number.
"Mr. Ji, is Miss Ji Lao's apprentice?" The shopkeeper immediately recognized the person. It is impossible for anyone who is engaged in the jade industry not to know Mr. Ji. Even if they have never met, they have heard of his name.
"No, Mr. Ji and I have been friends for years. I have been abroad for the past year and have been too busy to bet on stones. I heard that Mr. Ji went to the spring and summer jade auction in Myanmar a few months ago. I wonder if he picked up anything. Big leak." Le Yun moved a stone and continued to negotiate the price with the store.
When the customer mentioned Ji Lao, his tone was calm and natural. It seemed that he might really be familiar with Ji Lao. The store didn't ask any other questions and laughed: "I heard some gossip. I heard that Ji Lao took a shot at the public sale." I found a piece of secret material, weighing more than 900 kilograms, and it turned out to be waxy floating flowers, which bloomed like crazy." "
Oh, Mr. Ji picked up a big leak. He is indeed an expert. If I had known before, I would have taken the time to talk to Mr. Ji. Learn how to bet on stones."
"Have you never talked about stone betting with Mr. Ji?" "
No, I have known Mr. Ji for several years. Mr. Ji is an expert in the jade industry. I specialize in medicine. Our majors are different. We rarely have time to get together. I play stone gambling purely as a hobby to adjust my mood. Mr. Ji taught me the price rules in the stone gambling world in order to prevent me, a novice, from spending too much money." "Oh
, That's it." The shopkeeper understood. No wonder he had no principles when choosing rough stones. He just chose whatever he liked.
After collecting a little information about the customer, the store owner also knew that she was gambling on stones just to relax and didn't care whether she could get good ingredients. She didn't have the mentality of stone gamblers who "fear of missing out on good opportunities if they look good."
Therefore, if the price cannot be negotiated, it is entirely possible that she will not want any piece of it.
With psychological preparation, the store owner will know how to negotiate the price with the customer. If he wants to raise the price, he will basically add about 20% to the price she quoted.
This time, the price negotiation was much smoother.
Only one piece was rejected by the buyer because the price could not be reached.
After negotiating the price, settle the total price and then transfer the money.
After collecting the money, the shopkeeper added a mark on the rough stone label, indicating the day it was sold and the total price.
Classmate Le called the transportation company and signed and marked the label.
After waiting for about twenty minutes, someone from the transportation company arrived, and it was not a single person with a bicycle, but a three-person vehicle.
The transportation company is also the logistics company that Le Xiao's classmate used to handle shipping goods. It has branches in every city with a jade trading market in the border towns.
As soon as the transportation team comes, they pack and box.
When filling out the order, the merchandiser looked left and right at the delivery address, then at the owner of the goods, but hesitated to speak.
The packed boxes and baskets were moved out of the store and loaded into the car. The other two drivers and cargo guards drove the car to the parking lot to wait. The merchandiser accompanied the little girl to other places.
After they were far away from the store, the merchandiser asked: "Little girl, did you gamble on aniseed in Rui City and Ying County a few years ago and ask our company to consign it?" "Hey, you guys have such a good memory,
I In the past few years, I did bet that several tons of aniseed materials arrived, and they were all transported back to Beijing by your company."
Someone from a certain company may have an impression of him, and Le Yun did not shy away from it.
"It's really you, the surprise comes too soon! The rumor that the little girl brought back a Big Mac from abroad by gambling is still circulating in the jade industry and the transportation industry in border towns. We haven't heard about your gambling in the past three years. You finally made your comeback."
The merchandiser's eyes sparkled with excitement.
People say that a raw stone store does not open for one year but lasts for three years after opening. The same is true for their transportation company when it comes to Miss Le. Back then, the company made millions with just one order from Miss Le. The employees within the company were looking forward to the little girl every day. Come to the border town to gamble on stones.
What was even more surprising was that when the little girl was looking for consignment in Mangshi, the company actually assigned him to pick up the goods. He felt that he was also in a good time and was about to develop!
The group of people who delivered goods a few years ago received a commission of hundreds of thousands each after completing a large delivery order to the capital. They did not seek to earn hundreds of thousands at a time, but could get commissions of 40,000 or 50,000. That’s enough.
"I have been too busy in the past two or three years and have not had time to gamble on stones. This time it was because I had to go to Lishi to pick a medicinal herb. I wanted to collect some rough stones for my brother to play with, so I stopped by to do some shopping." "Fortunately
. Little girl, you don’t have time. If you have time, you should bet on stones frequently. News of missing stones is often spread, and the players in the stone gambling world will probably go crazy with jealousy.” “Betting on stones is all about luck, and I can’t always pick on stones.
”
Xiao The girl was humble and easy-going, and the merchandiser was very excited. He followed the little girl into a shop, and showed his professionalism as a follower. The little girl was determined not to say anything when picking stones. She picked out the rough stones and put them there, and he helped guard them. .
Le Xiaololi dug around and picked out only four rough stones. During the bargaining process, she also eliminated one piece and settled for three pieces.
The total weight of the three pieces of material was less than 20 kilograms. I asked the store owner to order a box and put it in my arms first. Then I packed it after I collected more.
The little Loli seemed to be wandering aimlessly. Sometimes she would go into a store and pick out one or two pieces of materials, but she would not buy them unless she could agree on the price. She went to three more stores before she could get a box of materials.
She took the merchandiser around and spent nearly four hours in the trading market. The materials she bought totaled two tons, and the largest piece weighed more than 500 kilograms.
Because the total weight of the goods exceeded the load capacity of the small truck, the transportation company knew who the consignor was, so they took a batch of goods back to the company and sent another car to take the girl and the merchandiser to Rui City.
