Hello, 1983
Chapter 722 Sankai Hi
The wedding lasted for a whole day, and until the three couples were sent back to their homes, Liu Qingshan completed the task and went home and slept well.
The next day, he followed Uncle Lu and Uncle Lao Maoer to the jewelry processing factory.
Hou San and Anna had nothing to do, so they came to see Qiqi together.
Construction has started quietly here, and Liu Qingshan didn't do any ceremony, just set off two hanging firecrackers, very low-key.
Hai Mingzhu served as the factory director and chief designer, and Uncle Lu was the deputy factory director. Liu Qingshan originally wanted to call Lao Mao'er and his uncle to come here and get a deputy factory director in charge of security.
As a result, people are not uncommon, saying that there is no way to ride around the alley comfortably with three wheels all day long, so Liu Qingshan had no choice but to let him.
There was no way, Liu Qingshan could only transfer Wang Xiaobing and Cao Xiaofei to lead a group of veterans who were responsible for security.
The company's equity is divided in this way: Longteng Company, occupying 10%, does not participate in management, and only enjoys dividends.
Hai Mingzhu holds 30% of the shares and Liu Qingshan holds 50% of the shares. These two are major shareholders.
The remaining shares will be divided among Uncle Lu, Zhang Ganzi and Wang Xiaobing.
Liu Qingshan got off the car at the gate of the processing plant. It is also a rule that any vehicle, unless it is transporting raw materials, is not allowed to enter.
Liu Qingshan didn't want to specialize, so he walked in.
The yard is very spacious, all of which are relatively tall factories, about the height of two floors, and then divided into processing workshops one by one.
It is mainly divided into two categories: one is precious metal processing, and the other is various gemstone processing.
Then there are delicate branches, like gemstones, which are divided into several groups: Hetian jade, jade, agate, and other colored gemstones.
Gold and silver jewelry also has a detailed division of labor according to the different wearing parts.
Of course, the two also overlap, such as some gem-set jewelry.
Then there is the warehouse, there are raw material warehouse, finished product warehouse and the like.
The environment in the yard is not bad. There were some old trees, all of which were kept, and then some flowers and shrubs were transplanted, which seemed to be full of vitality.
Not far from the door, there is a rockery and a pool. If you look inside, you can see koi swimming leisurely.
Liu Qingshan pays more attention to the environment. The workers work and live here every day. Of course, they must create a fresh and comfortable environment.
He first went to a few main warehouses, all of which were heavily guarded, and there were strict rules and regulations for entering and leaving to receive raw materials.
After all, money and silk move people's hearts, so from the very beginning, we will put an end to people's fluke mentality, so as to avoid problems and everyone will not look good.
In the treasury, Liu Qingshan also saw pieces of gold bricks, neatly stacked, and even he was a little tempted to look at them.
Liu Qingshan and the others didn't go in either. It was very troublesome. There was a metal detector at the door. Liu Qingshan opened the door and took a look inside.
He checked the register again, and the records were very detailed, both of which were signed by two warehouse managers.
In the past two years, the price of gold has risen slightly, and it has exceeded 80 yuan per gram.
However, Liu Qingshan was able to enjoy a 20% discount on the purchase price for the Asian Games Organizing Committee, which is more than 60 per gram.
When Hou San heard this, he still shook his head: "It's too expensive. The gold exchanged from Maozi is less than ten yuan per gram."
Cough cough, Anna coughed twice as a reminder.
Hou San quickly changed his words: "Hehe, the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union."
Anna now also knows that the word Maozi is somewhat derogatory.
At this price, even Liu Qingshan was a little surprised: "It's so cheap, won't it be pure enough?"
Like 18K and 24K, the price is definitely much different.
"Don't worry, it's all pure gold." The gold over there was handled by Hou San himself, of course he knew it best.
In the Far East, there are many gold mines, and they use food and daily necessities to barter, so the price difference is relatively large.
It's really messed up there. Many gold mines have privately withheld most of their gold production and sold them at low prices.
"How much did you save?" Liu Qingshan couldn't help but ask, if the amount was too small, it would be meaningless.
Hou San looked around and saw that there were no outsiders, so he said, "It's probably less than ten tons."
This number shocked Liu Qingshan: "So many!"
Hou San smiled: "You don't ask us to collect the rubles, just turn them into gold. This thing is always hard currency."
I have to say, what Hou San said makes sense, even in troubled times, gold is still useful.
But ten tons of gold is still a bit too scary. Even if the purchase price is ten yuan per gram, it is worth over 100 million yuan.
According to the market price, it is one billion!
This made Liu Qingshan wave his hand: "It's too much, I can't eat it now."
After all, Longteng Company, in the jewelry processing factory, only holds 10% of the shares.
"Just save it to you first, I think it's pretty safe here."
Hou San said again, that the Longteng Company was founded by Liu Qingshan and held the most shares, so no one cared about it.
Only then did Liu Qingshan nodded: "Okay then, when the time comes to escort it, remember to send more people."
Ten tons of gold sounds like a lot, but in fact it doesn't take up much space.
A few people walked forward again. This is the warehouse for storing jade, such as Hetian jade, jade, agate, etc., all in these warehouses.
At present, it is still a little empty, mainly because the warehouse is a little big.
However, Liu Qingshan believes that if he accumulates for a few years, he should gradually enrich it.
In particular, the procurement channels for Hetian jade and jadeite have been opened, and as long as there are funds, they can be shipped back continuously.
Taking advantage of the low price now, of course, the more stock the better.
Afterwards, he went to those processing workshops, and Liu Qingshan discovered that the number of workers in the processing factory was 150 or 60.
In addition to the designers brought back by Hai Mingzhu from Hong Kong Island, there are also many old masters in work clothes.
Among them are jade carving masters, as well as gold and silver jewelry craftsmen, most of them are engaged in some relatively high-end and fine manual operations.
As for those mechanical equipment, such as pouring molds and polishing, they are mostly operated by young people.
"Oh, it turns out that there are so many processes involved in making a ring."
Anna was an eye-opener and witnessed the process of turning from a gold nugget into a ring.
First, melt the gold in a crucible. It is said that real gold is not afraid of fire, mainly because the temperature is not enough. If you burn it under the crucible with an acetylene flame, the gold will be smelted obediently.
In fact, there is another batching process. After all, pure gold is too soft, and it is easy to deform after processing into jewelry.
There are also many methods for this ingredient, which gives some unscrupulous merchants the opportunity to cheat.
Of course, Liu Qingshan, a processing factory, has long set the rules: it must ensure the real materials.
The next step is to pour the mold. The prepared gold ingredients are filled into the gypsum casting mold using a centrifugal casting machine to form a rough billet.
Then after polishing, calendering, lathe, etc., a beautiful gold ring is born.
If it is inlaid with gems, the process will be more complicated.
And in the whole process of processing, there will be a certain loss, which is unavoidable.
Therefore, the price of gold and silver jewelry must be higher than the price of raw materials of gold and silver. If it is lower than the price of raw materials, there will be problems.
"Oh, so pretty, Monkey--"
Anna's tone was a bit coquettish, and this title also made the workers in the workshop snicker.
Originally a foreign girl is enough to attract attention, but she can speak Mandarin.
"You shouldn't be asked to watch the "Journey to the West" TV series." Hou San muttered, and then coaxed his wife: "When the jewelry store opens tomorrow, Brother Monkey will buy it for you!"
Only then did Anna put the gold ring back, and then Pa Da kissed Hou San on the face.
It's not good to spread dog food in person like this, the workers and masters will be distracted, and Liu Qingshan hurriedly took them to other workshops.
In fact, what I just saw is just the jewelry that goes through the industrial process. The real value or the test of time is the complicated jewelry made by hand.
After that, they went to the jade carving workshop again, and when they saw the green jade bracelet, Anna couldn't move.
Only then did Hou San realize he was being fooled: You shouldn't bring your wife to such a place, okay?
Everyone turned around in a big circle, it was already noon, and there was the sound of a bell ringing from the cafeteria.
The lunch of the master worker is handled in the factory, because it is very troublesome to go through a strict inspection once it leaves the factory.
As for dinner, those who live in the capital will have a commuter bus to send them back to the city.
For the rest, use the commuter car to pull it to the film and television city, where the food and lodging are all over there.
Liu Qingshan and the others also had lunch in the cafeteria. The food was pretty good, four dishes and one soup.
In terms of food and drink, Liu Qingshan never deducted workers.
Exploiting workers is what the most incompetent bosses do.
After lunch, there is a special lounge, where the elderly masters can take a nap.
Young people who are energetic will chat together, or read books and newspapers by themselves.
Liu Qingshan chatted with a few old masters, and they are all satisfied with the processing factory, they earn more than their pensions, their lunch is also decent, and the food is better than at home.
In this way, Liu Qingshan can rest assured and wait for the opening of the jewelry store tomorrow.
The next day, already October 3rd, another new store opened in the Wangfujing business district.
And coincidentally, two adjacent jewelry stores opened at the same time.
Jewelry shops in the capital are not as bad as later generations, and they are still rare, so they have attracted a lot of customers.
Two jewelry stores, one with a smaller facade, with four golden characters: Zhou's Jewelry.
The outside is very luxuriously decorated, with a sense of splendor.
The other one has a larger facade with a wooden plaque hanging on it, and its name is Shanhaizhai.
There is a couplet on the left and right, respectively: beautiful jade in the mountains, pearls in the sea.
The name of this store was taken by Hai Mingzhu, so it was obvious that this girl had used her brain too.
The walls outside Shanhaizhai are also retro decorations, which are fresh, elegant and antique.
Early in the morning, Liu Qingshan led Xiaowu and others to the outside of Shanhaizhai, and even Ma Laosan and several newcomers came to join in the fun.
"Yes, yes, it feels a bit like a century-old shop."
Xiao Wu shook his head and pretended to be gentle, and then looked at Zhou's jewelry next door: "Why do I feel that the other side is more gorgeous?"
Ma Laosan taught him a lesson: "Do you understand, there is a nouveau riche at first glance, our side is like the Rongguo Mansion in "A Dream of Red Mansions", it has a background, you understand the background?"
Everyone nodded, Wang Zhan also said with a smile: "Okay, third brother, as your knowledge rises, won't your sister-in-law teach you this?"
Everyone laughed, and Miss Xiaoli blushed, pulling Xiaomei and the others into the store:
"Let's go, let's ignore these men, let's pick up jewelry and ask them to pay."
Gangzi's voice came from behind him: "I still buy it, you guys have a full set of jewelry!"
This is true. Before they got married, they all bought it in Shanhaizhai.
At nine o'clock in the morning, two firecrackers were set off, and Shanhaizhai officially opened.
However, the shop next door also invited a band, and they tossed it for a while.
Opposite is of course the shop opened by Song Lei, Chu Zhengnan and others. Because it cooperates with Zhou's Jewelry on Hong Kong Island, there are also people there to support.
Liu Qingshan even saw the Zheng Gongzi of Zhou's jewelry in the crowd. Liu Qingshan wanted to say hello, but after the other party's eyes were paired with him, he immediately moved away.
Liu Qingshan led everyone into the store, and the decoration of the store also revealed a classical charm, but it did not lose the modern style. For example, the gold, silver and jade articles were also lit with spotlights.
There are already customers picking out items, mainly in front of the gold and silver jewelry counters, which are the most popular after all.
"Mr. Liu, a guest is here."
There was a greeting from the door, and Liu Qingshan hurriedly greeted him out, but Writer Shu led a group of old friends to congratulate him, such as Mr. Liang and the second master, among them, Liu Qingshan also saw Senior Brother Hai inside.
"Qingshan, you have done a good job of this shop, it's a bit like the early years!" The second master praised, looked up at the plaque above, and couldn't help exclaiming:
"Hey, the plaque and couplets are both the handwriting of Mr. Yuan Bai. It's incredible. It's incredible."
Everyone just took a closer look, and sure enough, the brushwork is elegant, clear, simple, and quiet.
Mr. Liang twitched his beard and admired it for a long time, then nodded again and again: "Qingshan, you have a lot of face, the old gentleman has bad eyes in the past two years, and he has rarely written."
"It's also a coincidence." Liu Qingshan did not elaborate, and guided everyone into Shanhaizhai.
Entering the jewelry store, Writer Shu sighed in admiration: "It's not bad, it doesn't have the cheesy gold powder, but it has some ancient charm."
"Don't sigh for now, hurry up and choose two pieces of jewelry for your daughter-in-law, I think they're going to grab it over there!"
The old man likes to joke more. Although he jokes about Writer Shu, he also thinks about buying a bracelet for his granddaughter.
He doesn't like gold, and thinks that jade bracelets are more supportive.
In front of the counters of the gold and silver jewelry sections, there are indeed many people, and there is a tendency to panic buying.
At this moment, the voice of a loudspeaker came from outside: "Zhou's jewelry opening ceremony, gold and silver jewelry, all discounts are 20%, and buy one get one free!"
The customers were stunned for a moment, then put the jewelry they were holding on the counter, turned around and went out, and walked into Zhou's jewelry.
