1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

"Dangdangdang...Dangdangdang..."

The next morning, Chen Tiezhu was sleeping soundly when there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Chen Tiezhu asked.

"Brother Chen, it's me. I brought some breakfast for you and Doudou."

Zhou Fengxia's voice came from outside the door.

"Wait, I'll open the door soon."

Chen Tiezhu jumped down from the soft bed.

"Good fellow, what are you doing?"

Walking into the room, Zhou Fengxia didn't know what to say when he saw the pile of money on the floor.

"Doudou used the money to build blocks, and there are no toys here. You first..."

Before Chen Tiezhu finished speaking, Zhou Fengxia stuffed the bag into Chen Tiezhu's hand and rushed directly to the desk.

His mind was completely attracted by the semi-finished material on the desk.

After Chen Tiezhu's non-stop processing last night, the material has changed a lot.

It looks like a helmet. Although the first layer of jadeite has a streak on it, it now looks like the brim of a helmet.

The jadeite in the inner layer looks like the position of the eyes.

"The tools are still not suitable. I have to think about it later. How can I make the stone more transparent and look better?" Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"It's really a fun thing. I just didn't bring a flashlight. The meat inside seems to be much larger than I expected." Zhou Fengxia said with emotion.

"Don't make random ideas. I definitely won't sell it. By the way, how was the situation yesterday?" Chen Tiezhu asked.

"Some rose and some fell, but most people made a small profit." Zhou Fengxia said.

"Later, six pieces of ice material were opened. The color is slightly worse, but it is also very good material. Generally speaking, this time was very successful. I was busy until the second half of the night."

"Then I have to have a good meal of mutton hotpot with you." Chen Tiezhu said.

"It seems that there is no difference. You can continue to work hard in this area. Maybe you will have to control the largest rough stone and jadeite transaction in the north."

"Thank you for your good words. I really have such an idea, but the current funding gap is too big." Zhou Fengxia said.

"It costs a lot to transfer a batch of materials, and this does not include the value of the rough stones themselves. Just bear it slowly. I wrote several IOUs for the materials yesterday."

"Don't worry about it. In the future, you will make a lot of money when you sell these materials as finished products. It would be a bit exaggerated to say that you can double your profit. It is no problem to make a profit of more than 50%. "Chen Tiezhu rolled his eyes.

"Hehe, otherwise I would not dare to be so generous. It would put our Zhou family's reputation on the line. By the way, have you dealt with the matter of the provincial court?" Zhou Fengxia said with a smile.

"It's done. What is the old man proud of? Should I prepare a small gift for him?" Chen Tiezhu asked.

"No need, you'll be fine once you're there." Zhou Fengxia shook her head.

"Hey? Brother Zhou, when did you come?" At this time, Doudou rubbed his eyes and sat up, yawning cutely.

"Brother Zhou just arrived, and he also bought fried dough sticks and fried cakes. Eat them while they're hot." Zhou Fengxia said with a smile.

When he heard that there was something delicious, Doudou, who was still a little confused, suddenly became energetic. Sniffing with his little nose, he ran down from the bed and found the fried cakes accurately.

Those who brush their teeth and wash their faces have to line up in the back. Eating fried cakes first is the most important thing.

"By the way, the first piece of material has been sent over. Mr. Qi said that it will be carved tomorrow." Zhou Fengxia said.

"You have such a big face?" Chen Tiezhu asked in surprise.

"How can I have such a big face, my grandfather's face. And I also took the spring color material with me, and the photo of your material." Zhou Fengxia said with a wry smile.

"Well, if you have time today, we can go to Mr. Qi's place to take a look. Mr. Qi's craftsmanship is really impeccable."

Chen Tiezhu didn't say anything, took a bite of the fried dough stick, and looked at him with a smile.

"Well, actually Mr. Qi is also very curious about this material." Zhou Fengxia said a little embarrassedly.

"I knew you would come here so early, and with a sugar-coated bullet, there must be something else. Then let's go after dinner, I also want to see how to carve jade." Chen Tiezhu said casually.

"Thank you, the camera is ready, my friend will send it directly. Brother Chen, do you have any ideas to develop in jade?" Zhou Fengxia breathed a sigh of relief.

I was really worried that Chen Tiezhu would not be willing to take out such a good stone, even if it was just to seeAt first glance, the value of this stone is really too high.

"Why do you care about me so much? I don't know anything about this stuff." Chen Tiezhu said.

"You can fool others, but you can't fool me. Whether you choose rough materials or draw lines, you are better than me." Zhou Fengxia said.

"You can say that you are just guessing, but I don't think so. Don't find excuses like insufficient funds. Just go around and pick a few stones to sell, and you will have everything."

"The domestic gambling stone market has just started, and the profit of this one is really too high. Even if it is steady and progressive, with the development of the economy, I can make a lot of money even if I hoard materials in the future."

"But no one will complain about too much money. Brother Chen, if you are interested, let's find a relationship to go to Myanmar. That is the source of jadeite raw stones, and our domestic stones are all shipped from there."

"It's just that the transportation process will be very dangerous, much more dangerous than transportation in our country. But the profit will also be much higher."

"Let's say that in my warehouse The one or two hundred yuan stones, if bought from there, are only a few yuan. Even with the transportation cost, it is less than twenty yuan. "

"But when I bought those stones, I spent more than fifty yuan. The value of big stones is naturally higher. It's just that now the jadeite in Myanmar is almost all controlled by Hong Kong jewelers. "

"Brother Chen..., don't look at me like that. It's not that I'm greedy, but I don't want so much profit to be taken away by others for nothing."

"It's also because my funds are not sufficient. If I can make it once, I will have the funds for subsequent development, and naturally I can do this business."

Noticing Chen Tiezhu's eyes, Zhou Fengxia said a little embarrassedly.

Chen Tiezhu was very emotional.

He had never heard of Zhou Fengxia in his later life, but he now has such ambitions. It seems that there are many variables here.

At the same time as having ambitions, it also means that he is bold. Being bold, the work he does is naturally very risky.

He is indeed a little hesitant now, should he follow him and make a fortune?
