A wealthy person with a reading panel

Chapter 47: Seventeen million three hundred and eighty thousand! (Please read)

"Master Qin, I'll be in charge of you then." Zhou Qing heard this and greeted the other party enthusiastically.

Master Qin looked like a very down-to-earth technician. He said repeatedly, "Of course, of course. Let's hurry up and look at the materials. It's rare to come across such good stuff. When Mr. Jiang showed us the videos and pictures before, I was a little itchy."

Zhou Qing placed the backpack on the solid wood coffee table, opened the zipper, and took the stone out.

Sister Hua and Master Qin are both people who truly love jade. When they saw such high-quality jade, they couldn't help themselves and immediately took out a high-intensity flashlight and devoted themselves to studying the material.

To make a jade bracelet, you first need to cut the stone into slices, and then use a machine to press out the bracelet blank based on the slices.

Whether the sheet material is cut well or not affects the number and quality of bracelet blanks pressed out later.

Sister Hua and Master Qin previously worked in the jade market in Pingzhou, Foshan for eight or nine years. Sister Hua, in particular, specializes in the jade bracelet industry and has extremely rich experience in this area.

It only took the two of them twenty minutes to figure out how to slice it and give an estimated number of bracelets: eight.

As soon as Zhou Qing heard this, he knew that they were worthy of being introduced by Boss Ruoshui, and they were indeed real experts.

The next step is to use a wire cutting machine to place the sheet material, which is estimated to take twelve or thirteen hours.

Boss Ruoshui left first with her driver, leaving the female assistant to accompany Zhou Qing in the studio.

When the two met again, it was already the afternoon of the third day - the two best bracelets were made by Master Qin first.

After seeing it, Mr. Ruoshui liked it very much, took the item home first, and quoted him a price on WeChat that night: the most perfect one, with a water quality close to glass and a very pure sky blue color, was 8 million; the other one had a slightly weaker water quality, but the ice gel was transparent, the color was even and rich, and there were no flaws, and it was 5 million.

"This price is based on the suggestions of Sister Hong and two other acquaintances who are in the jade business. It's also based on my own understanding of the market after buying jade bracelets for many years. It's definitely higher than what you sell it to others, but I won't suffer any loss."

The two together amount to 13 million!

Zhou Qing, who slept alone in the guest bedroom in the yard behind the studio, almost jumped out of bed after calculating this number in his mind.

"These are just the first two bracelets, there are six more to come, and there's a ton of leftover material!"

Zhou Qing rolled over from the bed, clenched his fists excitedly, and paced back and forth.

But he quickly calmed down.

"Don't worry, these two bracelets are top-notch. The water quality, color, and other aspects are perfect, so they are worth so much money."

These days, he stayed here and had nothing else to do, and he had no time to read novels for the time being. All his time, besides paying attention to the progress of bracelet production, was to further learn and understand jade knowledge and market conditions.

He now knows much more about jade than before, and knows the saying in the industry that "a one-point difference in quality means a ten-fold difference in price."

"According to Sister Hua, of these eight bracelets, including the first batch, only three are worth over a million, and the rest are in the hundred thousand range."

"But the advantage is the quantity. We can definitely sell a few million of them!"

Looking at the number "13 million" on the phone screen, Zhou Qing couldn't help but laugh.

Unlike the few hundred thousand dollars I had before, in China, if you have tens of millions in cash, you are definitely considered a "rich man"!
Zhou Qing felt happy for a while, then he reread the message from Boss Ruoshui. He knew that what the other party said was completely true. If he sold it to someone else, he would definitely not get such a high offer.

He quickly typed a reply: "Okay, I'll do it based on your price, boss. (Bow fists)"

By the morning of the fifth day, the remaining six bracelets had been polished.

It was still Liao Honghua's office, but this time only Zhou Qing and Jiang Ruoshui were there. After admiring the six bracelets, Ruoshui offered prices for each one:

"This one is the best. Although the color is a little lighter, the water quality is already high ice, and there is less cotton inside. 110 million."

"These two are pretty good, 45 each, so a total of 90."

"The remaining rings are a bit small, and the water quality and color are also relatively poor. This one is 25, this one is 18, and this one is 15, totaling 58."

"Adding those two, the total for the eight is... 1558 million."

After saying this, she glanced at the small mountain of bracelet cores and scraps next to her, then looked at Zhou Qing across from her. "Sister Hua told me that she really likes this pile of stuff and wants to keep it for the studio to use for custom designs for clients. What do you think? If she agrees, I'll ask her to come over and give her a quote. If the price isn't right, we can discuss it later."

Zhou Qing immediately said: "Of course no problem."

It doesn't matter who you sell it to, as long as the price is right.

Seeing that he agreed, Boss Ruoshui took out his cell phone and made a call.

Soon, Sister Hua Liao Honghua came in with a smile. The three of them discussed for more than ten minutes and finally agreed on the price of the pile of scraps: the bracelet cores of the two pieces were 150 million, and the remaining bracelet cores and scraps together were 50, for a total of two million.

After the price was agreed upon, Boss Ruoshui immediately prepared to call the finance department to go through the process.

Suddenly, she thought of something and stopped tapping the screen. She glanced at Liao Honghua, who had already walked to the door to arrange lunch. After she had completely left the door, she lowered her voice and asked, "By the way, do you need foreign currency?"

Zhou Qing replied in surprise: "No, not for now."

Ruoshui Boss: "Well, I'll have someone transfer RMB directly to the bank account you used last time."

After she finished speaking, she dialed the number, gave a few instructions, and hung up. "Okay, the finance department is going through the formalities. The two million from the studio will also be processed. It should be in your account within 48 hours."

Zhou smiled and nodded, resisting the urge to check his phone for any bank notification text messages, and started chatting with the other party.

"What are your plans after dinner?" Boss Ruoshui asked him with a smile.

"I'm going to find a quiet place to take a nap first. I'll talk about it after I'm full." Zhou Qing looked at the smile on her pretty face and couldn't help asking, "Boss, you're in a good mood today?"

Jiang Ruoshui continued smiling and said, "Well, I successfully completed a difficult task today... Do you need me to help you find accommodation?"

Zhou Qing quickly said, "No need, I can just find a hotel by myself."

"Okay, then I'll leave you alone."

The two had lunch in the studio and said goodbye to Liao Honghua and others before leaving.

Boss Ruoshui's black Rolls-Royce was in front, and after getting on the main road, it merged into the traffic flow. Zhou Qing drove the rented Volkswagen and followed the map navigation to arrive at the Vienna Hotel 1.5 kilometers away.

He asked for a deluxe standard room, checked in with his ID card, took a shower, closed the window and lay down on the bed.

I thought I could fall asleep quickly.

But after falling down, my mind was full of thoughts: How should I spend so much money after it arrives in my account?
