Craftsman: I continue to learn for the sake of the saints

Chapter 25 Secret Transaction

noon.

After attending the awards ceremony, Qin Luo had a meal with Ma Chaoyue at the kind invitation of Ma Chaoyue.

The location is set at a Cantonese restaurant not far away.

"Master Qin, hahaha... The taste of this restaurant is still good. I heard that you came back from a big city, so let's eat this."

Ma Chaoyue took the initiative to wash a set of tableware and handed it to Qin Luo.

Qin Luo gave him a slightly surprised look.

It seems that he really wanted to make friends with himself, and he paid attention to all these information.

Of course, this is no secret.

There is a character introduction board in the exhibition hall, and the personal information is provided by myself. It is written on it that I have worked as a designer in Pengcheng before.

When ordering, Qin Luo casually ordered two, Ma Chaoyue added one more Dongxingban, and two Buddha Jumping Wall.

This……

Qin Luo felt that the hospitality exceeded the standard again.

After all, there is nothing to do to be courteous, either to rape or to steal.

"President Ma, don't be so polite, is there anything I can do for you?"

Qin Luo asked proactively.

I don't like to beat around the bush, so I just say what I have.

Can talk about achievements.

If you can't talk about it, you will break up.

"Hey, when we meet for the first time, we don't talk about business, we don't talk about business, we just make friends."

Ma Chaoyue waved his hands and smiled, appearing very sincere.

Qin Luo was speechless.

But he still insisted: "Let's talk, hahaha, I can't hide things in my stomach, I always like to think about it, otherwise I won't feel at ease for this meal."

Ma Chaoyue glanced at him and smiled: "You are a real craftsman."

"Those who are technical people are all like this, straightforward and handable."

"Then... shall I just say it straight?"

He tested Qin Luo's attitude, and immediately stopped being polite, and got to the point.

"Say it."

Qin Luo poured him a cup of tea.

"That's right. I want to order a batch of Buddha statues from Master Qin. However, they are not native Buddhas. The ones in Thailand are similar to the four-faced Buddha. They have patterns. Master Qin will carve them according to the pictures. I will provide the materials. .”

"Every piece, I will give you this number."

He stretched out three fingers, thick fingers, and a gold ring was very conspicuous: "Thirty thousand."

Erawan Buddha?
Qin Luo's heart moved slightly.

"How big is it?"

This, I can carve myself.

The price is also right.

However, Qin Luo always felt a little strange, but he couldn't figure out what was strange.

There should be many craftsmen who can carve wood in the market, why did he choose himself?
"There are big and small ones, the small ones are [-] yuan, and the big ones are [-] yuan."

"Long-term cooperation, cash transaction."

"However, I just have a small request."

Ma Chaoyue said in a low voice, looking mysterious.

"You said."

Qin Luo felt more and more that there was something wrong with him, so he just remained patient and continued to ask for details.

Ma Chaoyue: "Master Qin is not allowed to sign these works, and they must be kept secret when they are carved. Is that okay?"

Qin Luo was stunned for a moment.

Why is this?
Could it be that he wants to take my carved works as his own to gain fame?
Even so, it's not enough.

"I... can I ask why?"

Qin Luo took a deep breath and asked.

Ma Chaoyue chuckled: "Master Qin, there's no need for that. I have my own channel for doing business. It's not convenient to disclose these things."

"We are ordinary customization, but with the need for confidentiality."

"what do you think?"

Qin Luo took a deep look at him.

"No contract?"

Ma Chaoyue shook his head: "Of course not, cash transaction, I will pay half of the deposit first, then give you the materials, after you are finished carving, bring it back to me, pay the other half, and the deposit for the next piece... so, One by one."

There is nothing wrong with this transaction process.

Qin Luo was silent for a moment.

"Let me ask one last time, isn't it illegal?"

Ma Chaoyue smiled brighter: "Of course not!"

"how is this possible?"

"I'm a serious businessman. I have my own company and my own shop. I have tens of millions of turnover every year. How can I break the law just by paying tens of millions in taxes?"

"If it's really an illegal business, I can find you so easily? Don't you think so?"

What he said also made sense.

Qin Luo believed three points for the time being.

After thinking about it, he also said, "Then...you can try to cooperate first."

"If the carving is broken, you won't ask me to pay for the materials?"

Qin Luo suddenly thought of another question.

Could it be a cover?
Is it specially used to cheat yourself?

"No, no, definitely not. This is inevitable. Don't worry. Wood is also the wood that can be bought in the market. It is more expensive at most. How expensive can it be? The source must be legal, and there is no It will be rare wood. I want to live two more years."

"If you're really worried, let's try it with small-leaf red sandalwood first."

Ma Chaoyue smiled and reassured Qin Luo.

Small-leaf red sandalwood, although it is also a kind of red sandalwood, is really not expensive, but the material is harder, and it can be regarded as ordinary wood.

Qin Luo was silent for a moment, then nodded.

I still... want to accept this business.

……

After talking about business and eating, Ma Chao immediately gave Qin Luo [-] in cash, four drawings, and a piece of small-leaf red sandalwood wood enough to make three finished products.

This is considered to be the first order.

Qin Luo called Sister Cha to come and pick her up, picked up her things, and called Jiang Shishi, planning to visit her shop.

After all, if you come to Haicheng, you still have to go there.

Sister Cha made a big purchase in the supermarket. She bought a lot of things. There were more than a dozen large and small shopping bags, and the cargo box of the pickup truck was almost full.

"What did you buy?"

"so much?"

Qin Luo sat in the passenger seat and asked curiously.

Holding the steering wheel with one hand, she smiled sweetly: "I bought them all for you, medicine, Liuwei Dihuang Pills, Huiren Shenbao Tablets, Guilu Bushen Pills, Suoyang Gujing Pills..."

Qin Luo: "Pfft!"

Laughing.

Then he looked at her in disbelief.

"are you crazy!"

Sister Cha also laughed and trembled: "I think you are sick. I live in the same room with you, and you dare not sneak into my room at night. Is there something wrong there?"

Qin Luo: ...

"roll!"

"You know shit!"

"I'm a decent person!"

Sister Cha laughed again, laughing like a female fairy: "Okay, I'm teasing you, it's all my clothes, cheongsam, black silk, white silk, professional skirt, sailor suit...and all kinds of clothes. Beautiful clothes, do you want to see them?"

Qin Luo: ...

Close your eyes and rest your mind.

I don't care about her.

Really able to do the whole job.

In the past two days, there were few live broadcasts, so she stopped working in the live broadcast room and started to punish herself.

"No, why don't you believe that I like you?"

Sister Cha's laughter has subsided, but her tone is still carefree and straightforward.

Qin Luo glanced at her.

"You are too fierce, I can't stand it."

"To marry such a daughter-in-law, how many years will I lose my life?"

Sister Cha: "So take the medicine! You can't stop the medicine!"

Qin Luo: ...

"Ha ha."

you sir!
……

It wasn't until Qin Luo got out of the car at Jiang Shishi's store and took a look in the back compartment that she realized that she had bought a full set of kitchen utensils.

There are also a few pieces of clothes for the elderly, and footwear for the elderly, which should be for grandpa.

And some cigarettes, maybe for the uncle.

Qin Luo: ...

She is obviously a good girl, why does she look so sloppy on the surface?

What's the benefit?

……
