1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

"Brother Chen, I will arrange for someone to cut these two pieces of material quickly after I go back. No matter how much profit there is, I will give you half."

On the way back, Zhou Fengxia said excitedly.

"Don't you regret it?" Chen Tiezhu was happy.

"Why regret it? This money is like picking it up for free, what's there to feel sorry for? I guess it's no problem to buy a high-end imported car." Zhou Fengxia said with a smile.

"Wow, can you make so much money from these two pieces of material?" Chen Tiezhu asked in surprise.

"Hehe, the key is publicity. Especially this white background with black flowers, sell it over there after it's done, the price will be a surprise." Zhou Fengxia said.

"This thing is actually rare, not very common. Otherwise, you can buy two at once and let your sister-in-law drive one."

"Your Jeep, give it to the company when the time comes. It will save your sister-in-law from inconvenience when she goes to work in the future. Imported cars are more comfortable to drive than domestic cars."

"It doesn't matter if it's a Crown or a Duke. Many government departments have changed their cars now. It won't be too eye-catching for your sister-in-law to drive. Even if it's eye-catching, what can it do? You bought it, that's it."

"Don't mention it, you really tempted me." Chen Tiezhu muttered.

"We'll spend half a day to choose the car. Anyway, it's a favor, so it doesn't matter if we add one more. Brother Chu Liang, do you have any dietary restrictions?"

"No, I can eat anything. But do you have a deep hatred with Huang Wenxuan?" Chu Liang asked curiously.

"It's indeed deep. We'll get home soon, and we'll have a good chat then." Chen Tiezhu nodded.

There is nothing to hide. If you really want to be friends with Chu Liang, it is better to be honest about many things.

After returning to Zhou Fengxia's house, Chen Tiezhu tied a big apron and started to cook.

Chu Liang was also very curious about his quick cooking.

I never thought that Chen Tiezhu was not only so good at gambling on stones, but also so good at cooking.

Chen Tiezhu also took the opportunity to talk about the grievances between him and Huang Wenxuan while cooking. There is no need to exaggerate, just talk about the actual situation.

"Zhou'er, after all, you are the host and we are all guests. You have to bring the first glass of wine."

After the food was served, Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"Then I'll do it." Zhou Fengxia picked up the wine glass.

"Brother Chen is one of us, so I won't say much to thank you. This is the first time I've met Brother Chu Liang, but I've seen you many times when I went to your place."

"But since you're at my house, we're just like at home. Don't think of anything else. I'll drive you around our provincial capital tomorrow."

"Thank you for your kindness. I'm very happy today." Chu Liang smiled and raised his glass.

"Brother Chu Liang, are there so many ways to play with stones in your place?"

After finishing the wine in the glass, Chen Tiezhu asked.

Chu Liang nodded, "There are indeed many, but the real good stones are not in the warehouses of those state-owned companies, but in those old shops."

"With the change of policies, the import of stones has been relaxed a lot. And the stones are basically measured by weight, without a specific standard."

"When you go there, I will take you to the warehouses of some of my friends to have a look. There won't be much discount in price, but you can see better stones."

"Even if you want to go to the public auction in the future, it doesn't matter. I also have many friends there, and many things are very convenient."

Chen Tiezhu gave a thumbs up, "Look at this friend, just when he was sleepy, someone gave him a pillow."

"I went to live with my uncle in your country when I was very young, but I also have contact with friends at home." Chu Liang said with a smile.

"I heard from Xiao Zhou that the good stones on the public auction are often hunted by Hong Kong businessmen?" Chen Tiezhu asked.

Chu Liang nodded with a serious expression, "That's right, and it has been going on for many years. But there is no other way, only they can come up with so much money to participate in the public auction."

"It doesn't matter, even if the mines are now owned by Myanmar. If you have ideas, they also have a certain amount to sell first."

"This is all for the future. I make friends with you, and I will be responsible for everything over there. Including buying stones from me in the future, you will definitely not be bullied."

"But whether you can find good stones depends on your own ability. If everyone has such good luck as today, your jewelry company will definitely be very powerful."

"Thank you, brother Chu Liang, drink another one." Zhou Fengxia said happilySaid.

Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them happily.

Only Doudou was still concentrating on gnawing on the chicken thigh. Today's lunch was a little late, and he was really a little hungry.

"Brother Chu Liang, you are so capable, why don't you plan to set up a jewelry company?" Chen Tiezhu asked curiously.

Chu Liang shook his head, "This is the rule set by my uncle. Because if we also run a jewelry company, then our hearts will not be pure enough, and it will be difficult to identify the stones."

"Even if I take you to a friend's warehouse to pick stones in the future, I won't go in. But it doesn't matter, my uncle and I have endless money."

"My uncle is the leader of the old street. Sometimes when there are conflicts between shops, they will ask my uncle to help mediate, and sometimes they will ask my uncle to help cut some stones that they can't identify."

Everyone nodded, and they understood what was going on.

To put it bluntly, the old dragon king was worshipped by them. Otherwise, if the old man walks around the street, he will sweep away all the good goods in the warehouses.

Don't mess with our business. We will offer you sacrifices every year. This is also good.

This is equivalent to the old dragon king being the real boss of that street. This identity is not simple.

No wonder Chu Liang just said so confidently. He has this confidence.

"Hey..., each industry has its own ways. If I hadn't met Brother Chu Liang, I really don't know how many years it would take to find out the way." Zhou Fengxia sighed.

"Actually, they are all similar." Chu Liang said.

"You used to just play by yourself, which is different from doing business. There are ways to do business, but if you want to gain a foothold in this industry, I think you must get the recognition of those people."

"Otherwise, it will be really difficult for you to get good goods. The good goods I mean are not those stones that can be cut into very good materials, but those stones that are above ordinary."

"I think it should be the same, because if you want to open a door to do business and want customers to come in, your products must be in line with their consumption level." Chen Tiezhu took over with a smile.

"But Brother Chu Liang said so much, it seems that there is other information about Huang Wenxuan. Does he have connections there?"

Hearing him ask this, Zhou Fengxia also became serious.

No matter how big Huang Wenxuan will expand this business in the future, he will definitely compete directly with him.

If he really has connections there, he might make trouble.
