Chapter 47 The old man on the construction site with five sets of clothes
"Of course not for real."
"After we shoot the video, we also take close-ups of these jade artifacts and do detailed evaluations."
“So it’s best to buy it back directly.”
Zhang Yang fabricated the subsequent operations according to the common evaluation process on the Internet.
Very professional.
The proprietress nodded after listening to this. She had gradually forgotten that Zhang Yang was originally here to shoot a promotional video.
Instead, he began to struggle over whether or not to sell the box of goods for 100,000 yuan.
From a business perspective, selling like this is definitely not cost-effective, but we can only say that we didn't lose money.
But this is a huge amount of traffic, and you may not be able to buy it with 100,000 yuan.
If more people can know that we have good stuff here, won’t we be able to make more money in the future?
After much hesitation, she agreed to sell the goods to Zhang Yang.
After the payment was made and the invoice was issued, the lady boss looked at "Director Zhang" eagerly and asked him:
"When do we start? Do you want your makeup artist to touch up my makeup?"
"I'm sorry, Madam Boss, we don't lend out makeup artists."
Zhang Yang said very embarrassedly.
How to borrow something you don’t have?
But he immediately added a sentence, which made the proprietress feel a little better:
"But if you want to touch up your makeup, we can wait for you here."
"Okay, I'll touch up my makeup and change my clothes."
"Director, please sit wherever you like!"
"Well, go ahead and do your work. I have to take this box of stuff to our producer to have a look. He has to reimburse me for this."
Zhang Yang pointed outside the door, as if there really was a producer waiting for him.
"Hahaha, it's okay, let the producer take it as he pleases."
The proprietress smiled and lifted the curtain to walk into the inner room, not forgetting to turn back and emphasize again:
"The stuff in this box of mine is absolutely great stuff!"
What we want is good stuff!
Zhang Yang smiled back and walked out of the store as usual.
Looking at the Afghan jade on the boss lady’s counter and the way she threatened to sell the things in the box for 100,000 each, she must have been ripping people off quite a lot.
What is Afghan Jade?
The main component is calcite, a perfect building material.
Every single one of those jade shops that sells this stuff has a bad conscience.
So Zhang Yang used some tricks and bought her goods at cost price without any psychological burden at all.
Seeing Zhang Yang coming out, "Lin Xiangru" hurried over to greet him.
The male college student asked nervously:
"Have you started yet, Boss?"
"It has ended."
"what?"
"I said, your cosplay this morning is over." Zhang Yang emphasized again.
"But I didn't do anything?"
"No, you've already done your part."
Zhang Yang said very confidently, and sent the other party away:
"I'm going to go back now, if you're willing to continue wearing this ugly costume and being watched here."
"As you please."
After saying that, Zhang Yang disappeared into the crowd.
"Lin Xiangru" hesitated for half a second, quickly took off his clothes, glanced at the crowd, and walked in the opposite direction of Zhang Yang.
……
……
half a month later.
Mr. Zheng paid the final payment of 300,000 yuan, drove away from Good Luck Village with a trunk full of antique jades.
On the way out of the village, he took out the contract he had just signed with Zhang Yang.
I watched it with great interest.
Seeing his expression, Mr. Zheng's cousin and driver asked curiously:
"Brother, why do we have to sign a contract to buy fake antiques now?"
"Because they have completed industrial upgrading."
President Zheng said half mockingly and half with emotion:
"Didn't you notice? Just now before we delivered the goods, Zhang Yang took a special look at the camera to make sure it was recording."
"They are on guard against us!"
"Ah? He was on guard against us?" The cousin pretended to be surprised and said, "We weren't on guard against him, but he turned against us?"
"Brother, you didn't even check the goods just now!"
"Brother, you are acting too much."
Mr. Zheng said to his cousin very rudely:
"I didn't inspect the goods because Mr. Zhang said that if you are not satisfied, you can return them within seven days without giving any reason."
"Then I will definitely wait until the transaction is over." "Why bother inspecting the goods in front of him? It's as if you don't trust him."
"Besides, I have a case on my hands right now, isn't it normal for others to be on guard?"
President Zheng spoke to his cousin earnestly.
The case of digging up the Han tombs almost wiped out his original team.
He could only ask his cousin who had just graduated from college and worked as a driver in a law firm to come.
Women are unreliable, you can only rely on relatives.
……
The two came out of Good Luck Village and went straight onto the highway. The car headed north, leaving Qingzhou, a place with mountains and rivers, and drove to Linzhou, a coastal city.
Mr. Zheng’s clients are here.
The car drove all the way to Linzhou International Seaview Resort.
We were stopped by security at the entrance.
"Where are you going?" the security guard asked.
"We are giving souvenirs to tourists from the UK."
"The leader is a girl named Sarah."
"Oh, I know who it is. Wait a moment."
"Why?" Mr. Zheng asked, holding out a cigarette.
The security guard waved his hand and pointed to the no-smoking sign.
"A few minutes ago, a car drove in, also delivering tourist souvenirs."
"If you go in now, the garage of the villa can't accommodate two cars. Not only will you be unable to unload the goods, but it may also be blocked."
"Fuck!"
President Zheng cursed softly in the passenger seat.
He murmured to himself somewhat depressedly:
"Damn, someone got there first!"
Giving travel souvenirs is the secret code of their transaction.
Mr. Zheng felt that he had arrived early enough, as several bosses he knew had given up on this business opportunity because they were pressed for time.
He also thought that he could rely on Zhang Yang to monopolize this business.
I didn't expect there were people who got there earlier than him.
Mr. Zheng leaned against the window, looking at the exit of the villa area with depression.
Half an hour later, a van with a sign saying "Specializing in repairing leaking buildings" drove out unsteadily.
When the security guard saw the car, he immediately waved to Mr. Zheng and his team.
"Let's go in."
The meaning is very clear, that van is the one that just went in to deliver the goods.
Mr. Zheng was a little bit unbelieving.
My competitor actually drives such a crappy car?
It's not really a souvenir, is it?
When the two cars met, Mr. Zheng glanced at the driver and found that he was a shirtless young man wearing sunglasses.
The thoughts in my mind became more certain.
It must be a real souvenir.
At the same time, Mr. Zheng's clients, four young antique dealers led by Sarah, were circling around the jade pieces they had just purchased on the table.
We watched and discussed at the same time (in English).
"I bet these are jade artifacts that have just been unearthed."
"Of course. You see the dirt on it hasn't been cleaned up yet. It must have just been dug out. And the guy who delivered the goods just now is obviously from the construction site."
"Sarah, do you know what these are?"
"I don't understand. Uncle Sam, who knows about this, didn't come because his visa expired. But when we video chat later, he will be surprised to see that I bought so many precious Chinese cultural relics."
"By the way, Sarah, the appraiser Uncle Dong you asked me to invite will be here soon."
"..."
When Mr. Zheng was taken upstairs by the translator, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
Who moved the old man’s stall from the construction site here?
These things are the famous "Five-piece set for the old man on the construction site".
Jade bowls, jade plates, jade official figures, ivory Buddha figures, and jade cups.
Seeing President Zheng, Sarah's eyes lit up and she quickly said to the translator:
"Please ask Mr. Zheng to help check if he recognizes these treasures on the table?"
(Translation process omitted here)
"Baby?"
Mr. Zheng scratched his head, not knowing how to start.
Because it sounds like the customer in front of him has been cheated.
Just at this time his cousin was carrying some jade upstairs.
Seeing all the fake plastic antiques on the table, my cousin sighed subconsciously:
"Oh my god, are these foreigners all fools?"
