What was the most expensive thing in the twenty-first century? Talent!
What was the most valuable thing in the stone-gambling industry? Talent!
This time, Da Mao did not just become famous overnight. He had practically become a demigod. No one had seen his performance when he, Zhong Da Pao, and the rest had picked out the stones, but now, his review of Old Hua was on full display for everyone to see!
This was a much clearer demonstration of his abilities, a more direct and shocking experience!
A half-bald, middle-aged man walked up and handed Da Mao his name card. He said with a smile, "Brother, how do I address you?"
Following that, another person came up and handed him his name card. "Handsome, please take care of me." "Brother, wanna have a meal together?"
This was probably the first time Da Mao had encountered something like this. He was suddenly surrounded by a few people, and the crowd was growing. He was not used to it and kept retreating.
Liu Zi pulled him behind him and glared at the others. "What are you doing? What are you guys trying to do? "
The middle-aged man smiled. "Master Liu, what else could we be trying to do? We just want to get to know this brother. Why are you so agitated? "
Old Hua recovered from his daze and walked up to Da Mao. While Liu Zi was focused on the front, he shoved his brand-new iPhone into Da Mao's hands.
Da Mao said, "What?"
Old Hua forced a smile. "Brother, you're a new face. You're not familiar with Hpakant, are you? Take my phone. There are some people in my contact list. If you run into any trouble, contact them. This is my number, they'll … "
Before he could finish, Liu Zi pulled Da Mao away and cursed, "F * ck, have you all gone f * cking crazy? What's going on? F * ck, don't scare my buddy. "
Old Hua said darkly, "Master Liu, you sure changed your attitude quickly. You were just cursing and kicking him, and now you're a buddy? "
Liu Zi did not know what to say. Zhong Da Pao took over the conversation. "That's still better than you, Master Hua. If we hadn't stopped you, you would have beaten us up."
Old Hua looked up to the sky and laughed. "Haha, I had eyes but failed to recognize you!"
After saying that, he saluted Da Mao and said, "I'm sorry, little brother. I've offended you just now. I hope you can forgive me and give me a chance to make amends. How about I treat you to a meal when you have time?"
Da Mao was at a loss. He waved his hands and said, "Don't, don't, don't. It's nothing. We're all Jianghu people, right?"
"Bullshit." Liu Zi curled his lips in disdain. "Let's go, let's go. Hurry up and leave. This is a foul place. It's not a place for people to stay."
Seeing that they were about to leave, the person in charge of the public bank who had been waiting on the side came out and said, "Master Pao, Master Liu, can I have a word with you?"
The public bank was not only responsible for cutting the stones, but it was also responsible for collecting, selling, storing and evaluating the cut jade. The purpose of the person in charge was to purchase this batch of jade.
The group of them entered the reception room. Zhong Da Pao sipped on his fragrant tea and said, "Manager Maung Kyaw, we can sell it to you, but the price of ten, ten, and forty million isn't quite acceptable."
Liu Zi munched on a pistachio and said, "That's right. Who are you trying to fool? One hundred and forty million is too little. How about two hundred million? We'll give you two hundred million."
Manager Maung Kyaw, who looked like a typical native of Myanmar, laughed and said, "Master Liu, you must be joking. Two hundred million is too much, but if we want to buy it, we'll definitely offer a reasonable price. How about one hundred and fifty million?"
Zhong Da Pao rolled his eyes and said, "What's the difference between that and the previous evaluation? That's too low, Manager Maung Kyaw. Do you know how many mouths I have to feed in my village? It's all because of these stones, so you have to give us more. "
Manager Maung Kyaw looked at Da Mao meaningfully and said, "With this little brother here, won't the money and jade come rolling in? Master Pao's people will get sick of eating sea cucumbers, abalone, bird's nest, and shark's fin with the help of this little brother. "
Zhong Da Pao laughed and waved his hands. "You're exaggerating, Manager Maung Kyaw. We just want to eat rice to fill our stomachs. How about this, we'll raise the price by two eighty percent. What do you think? "
Manager Maung Kyaw shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, we can't accept this price. No one can."
Li Du said, "I can help you pull some strings. Harry Winston is quite interested in the jade industry now. Master Pao, maybe you can listen to their offer."
Manager Maung Kyaw glanced at him and smiled. "Boss Li, you're too modest. You're the major shareholder of Harry Winston. You can make the decision on a deal that's less than twenty million US dollars, right?"
As soon as he said that, everyone in the room was shocked.
Everyone in the gemstone industry knew about Harry Winston. Hearing that Li Du was the major shareholder of Harry Winston, Zhong Da Pao and the others looked at him in surprise.
Li Du smiled and said, "Manager Maung Kyaw, you're really impressive. Is my identity transparent to you?"
Manager Maung Kyaw said, "Don't misunderstand, Mr. Li. We have no intention of invading your privacy. We just need to know who's entering our territory. Besides, your bodyguard is so eye-catching, it's impossible for us not to notice you. "
Li Du pondered for a moment and said, "How about this, Manager Maung Kyaw. This is the first time we've met, and the first time we've worked together. Let's take it as a favor and make friends. How about this batch of stones for one hundred and fifty-five million?"
Manager Maung Kyaw laughed. He extended his rough hand and said, "It's a pleasure working with you, Mr. Li. We're very happy to have a friend like you!"
Li Du shook his hand and nodded at Zhong Da Pao.
Zhong Da Pao rubbed his hands together and hesitated. Finally, he said reluctantly, "Alright, Master Li, we'll earn less than ten million!"
Li Du said, "Money is easier to carry around than jade. I'm afraid there's a lot of people watching us now."
Manager Maung Kyaw stood up to make arrangements for the settlement of the funds. After hearing Li Du's words, he laughed and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Li. No one will dare to touch you in Longken's territory. If you think it's dangerous, you don't have to go to town. You can stay here. Longken's conditions are not bad. "
Speaking of safety, Liu Zi said proudly, "You don't have to worry about that, Manager Maung Kyaw. The Chinese Village may not have many things, but we have the guts to survive. If anyone wants to snatch something from us, come at them. We'll show them what it means to snatch food from the tiger's mouth!"
The funds were huge, and Manager Maung Kyaw did not have the authority to use so much money. They waited until noon, when the owner of the field area gave the order. Manager Maung Kyaw asked for their bank account numbers and transferred the money.
The money was transferred into their bank accounts in two batches. Li Du received one hundred and twenty million, while Zhong Da Pao received thirty million.
After dumping the stones that they had cut off, they left Longken's village and drove back, preparing to head to the next field area.
When the convoy reached the edge of town, a few large SUVs appeared from the side and blocked their way.
Zhong Da Pao looked at the license plate and laughed coldly. "Ha, this is interesting."
