Xia Ruofei didn't have to wait for long. Ma Zhiming replied to his WeChat almost instantly.
"Mr. Xia, this is the best black jade!"
This sentence was followed by a shocked emoticon, and three of them were used consecutively.
Xia Ruofei actually didn't doubt the value of this jade — at least so far, the reaction of the Spiritual Map Scroll had never been wrong. So when he saw Ma Zhiming's reply, although he was very happy, he didn't show it on his face.
Before Xia Ruofei replied, Ma Zhiming quickly sent another message. "Mr. Xia, the picture is not very clear. Do you want to buy this jade? I suggest you be careful. This grade of black jade is very rare. I haven't seen it even though I've been in the business for so many years! "
Xia Ruofei couldn't help laughing. His fingers quickly tapped on the screen and replied to Ma Zhiming, "Mr. Ma, there's no doubt about its authenticity, because this jade was cut out from the raw stone by myself, and it's an old raw stone!"
After Xia Ruofei sent this message, Ma Zhiming was silent for a while. Then he directly gave up the communication on WeChat and called in.
Xia Ruofei picked up and said with a smile, "Mr. Ma!"
Ma Zhiming's voice was very excited. He said, "Mr. Xia, so the owner of this best black jade is you?"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "You can say that!"
"Mr. Xia, are you interested in selling this jade?" Ma Zhiming asked excitedly. "Hengfeng Jewelry is willing to buy it at a high price! The specific price needs to be evaluated after seeing the real thing, but I can guarantee that the purchase price will not be lower than 100 million! "
Ma Zhiming didn't doubt the authenticity of this jade at all, because he had absolute trust in Xia Ruofei. Since Xia Ruofei said that this jade was cut out from the raw stone by himself, it couldn't be fake.
Xia Ruofei was mentally prepared. He knew that this jade might be valuable, but when he heard Ma Zhiming promise that the purchase price would be at least 100 million, he couldn't help but feel his heart beat wildly.
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't tempted. Even though Xia Ruofei was now a little rich, it was definitely not to the extent that he didn't care about 100 million.
However, Xia Ruofei quickly resisted the temptation. He said with a trace of apology, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ma, this jade may be useful to me, so I don't plan to sell it for the time being …"
Ma Zhiming said regretfully, "I see … That's a pity. This kind of extremely rare jade, even in our Hengfeng Jewelry, can be regarded as the treasure of the store …"
Xia Ruofei asked with a smile, "Mr. Ma, I'd like to ask … If this kind of black jade is carved into a finished product, what type of jade would be better?"
Ma Zhiming said without hesitation, "Black jade represents darkness, and also justice, so it is usually made into ornaments in the image of Zhong Kui, Bao Gong, Guan Gong, etc., or made into bead chains, bracelets, and so on. It can drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters. Ordinary evil spirits can't get close to it!"
In fact, the culture of Feng Shui metaphysics was well-preserved in Hong Kong, especially among the upper class of society. There were many people who believed in these things, so black jade products were also the most popular in Hong Kong.
Xia Ruofei's black jade was the best in terms of quality, clarity, hardness, water quality, and so on. If it was made into a finished product, it would undoubtedly be favored by countless people. Therefore, Ma Zhiming was eager to buy this black jade.
"I see, I've learned a lot …" Xia Ruofei smiled.
Ma Zhiming asked, "Mr. Xia, do you want to make this jade into a finished product? If so, there are several masters in our company's processing factory who are very good at carving. Do you want to let us process it? We don't charge a penny for processing. After the finished product is made, if there are one or two extra pieces, Mr. Xia, you can sell them to our company according to the market price! "
Seeing Ma Zhiming so enthusiastic, Xia Ruofei was a little embarrassed to refuse him.
However, he obviously wouldn't let others do it. Many people may be better at carving than him, but when it came to making a finished product, Xia Ruofei was very confident. Even the masters in Hengfeng Jewelry couldn't beat him.
Because he could carve the charm that other masters couldn't. In addition, the most important point was that he could engrave various array patterns on these jade products, so they were no longer simple ornaments, but had certain functions.
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Ma. If there is a need, I will contact you again," Xia Ruofei said.
When Ma Zhiming heard this, he knew that Xia Ruofei had actually declined. He couldn't help but sigh secretly.
At this time, Xia Ruofei said again, "No matter where this jade is processed, if there is a leftover finished product, I will first consider Hengfeng Jewelry."
Ma Zhiming suddenly had a feeling of seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. He was overjoyed and said, "That's great! Thank you, Mr. Xia!"
"You're welcome. It's business! It's the same no matter who it is. I'm more relieved to cooperate with you, isn't it? "Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
"That's right, that's right!" Ma Zhiming said, and then asked, "Mr. Xia, do you really not need our masters to make a move? The masters in Hengfeng Jewelry are much better than some famous masters in the mainland … "
Ma Zhiming thought that Xia Ruofei didn't understand the situation of the jade carving masters in Hengfeng Jewelry, so he couldn't help but recommend it to himself.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "There's really no need for the time being. If there is a need, I will contact you again!"
"Okay!" Ma Zhiming said, "If possible, I hope that Mr. Xia can leave me a Zhong Kui jade carving …"
"No problem!" Xia Ruofei said straightforwardly.
After the phone call with Ma Zhiming, Xia Ruofei flashed into the Ring-Tu space.
He stood in the Origin Realm and looked at the black jade the size of a head in front of him. He couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
He had only spent more than three million to buy the raw stone, but a rare jade worth more than a hundred million was found. In just two days, the value had increased by more than thirty times! It was even more profitable than a monopoly!
Moreover, this was the value of the jade. If Xia Ruofei processed this jade into a finished product, the value would probably increase by a lot.
Especially when he engraved some array patterns on it, as long as he showed a little of the array functions inside the jade products in the future, those billionaires would probably rush like a flock of ducks. It was absolutely possible that the value would increase by several times.
However, although Xia Ruofei was very confident in his carving skills, he also knew that this matter couldn't be rushed.
First, he had to collect information to determine the shape and size of the figure to be carved. Then, he had to make a reasonable plan for this piece of jade based on this.
This step was very important.
This supreme-grade black jade was extremely precious. The best plan was to make use of every bit of jade as much as possible. In theory, it was best not to leave any leftovers. Of course, this was impossible.
However, if the plan was as perfect as possible, he might be able to make one more bracelet or one or two more pendants. These were all priceless treasures!
Therefore, Xia Ruofei first put the black jade in the Ring-Tu space, and then returned to the outside world. It was almost evening. He planned to make a good plan after dinner.
Xia Ruofei went downstairs and took out some ingredients from the Ring-Tu space, mainly live fish, vegetables, and so on. Then, he took out a bottle of exquisite Zui Ba Xian, which was the kind with a few petals of the Spirit Heart Flower.
Xia Ruofei put on an apron and began to work in the kitchen.
He hadn't cooked for a while, so it was quite interesting to cook occasionally.
Not long after, Ye Linyun, who had just gotten off work, came to the villa. Pang Hao was with him. This guy heard from Ye Linyun that Xia Ruofei was personally cooking at home, so he came over to scrounge a meal without a second thought.
When the two saw that Xia Ruofei was already busy, they hurried to the kitchen to help.
Soon, four dishes and a soup were prepared. The main dish was a steaming fish, and the fish head was specially taken out to make tofu soup. There was also some braised food in the fridge. Xia Ruofei also took it out and heated it up. Dinner was ready.
It took too long to cook, so Xia Ruofei simply cooked some dumplings.
He didn't plan to bring Pang Hao, so when the two of them served the dishes on the table, he went upstairs and took out a bottle of Zui Ba Xian from the space.
As soon as the bottle cap was opened, the rich wine fragrance filled the villa's dining room.
Pang Hao couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He immediately decided to stay in the company's dormitory tonight and not drive home — because this way, he could drink freely.
Ye Linyun swiftly picked up the wine bottle and poured wine into the glasses of the three of them.
Xia Ruofei picked up the cup and looked at Pang Hao with a faint smile. "Fatty, you're not kind! Why didn't you ask Ping Zi to come with you? "
Pang Hao smiled and said, "Guan Ping went to the city with their manager to run some business. Otherwise, I would definitely ask him!"
"Run some business?" Xia Ruofei was puzzled and said, "Isn't he in the e-commerce department? Why did he go to the city? "
"It's like this. Recently, there's a new online supermarket in Sanshan," Pang Hao said. "It's mainly a local business. They only have a warehouse and don't have a physical store. It's very convenient to place an order online. They promise to deliver it in half an hour, and there are some discounts from time to time. So, the number of users is increasing very quickly. Some uncles and aunties have learned to use their app …"
Speaking of this, Pang Hao paused for a moment and couldn't help but take a sip of wine. Then, he continued, "This online supermarket is very interested in our Taoyuan vegetables and hopes to cooperate with us. Although it's a local supermarket, it's still an e-commerce business! That's why the Electronic Commerce Department followed up. Hirako volunteered to follow their manager and learn from him … "
"Oh, I see!" Xia Ruofei said.
He didn't care too much about these specific businesses. Now that the company had a certain scale, if he had to take care of everything personally, he wouldn't be able to handle it even if he had the ability to split himself.
The departments below were expanding, and there were more and more people. So, these specific matters naturally had to be handled by someone.
Xia Ruofei asked again, "How is Ping Zi doing in the company? Will he be wronged? "
Pang Hao said, "You think too much! Although Ping Zi repeatedly said that he wanted to keep a low profile, and not many people in the company know about his relationship with us, Ping Zi originally came from a sales background. His EQ is also very high. He's been here for only two or three days, and he's already very familiar with his colleagues. I think … He's born to be in this line of work! "
Xia Ruofei was very pleased to hear this and said, "That's good, that's good … I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to adapt!"
"It will take time to adapt," Pang Hao said. "But Ping Zi will definitely be able to do it! I'm worried that he will feel disappointed, after all … "
"No!" Xia Ruofei said, "Ping Zi isn't such a person! He took the initiative to ask to do the basic work in the front line, which means that he has confidence in himself, and at the same time, he wants to succeed with his own ability! "
Xia Ruofei knew Pang Hao's worries. The three of them were as close as brothers. Now, Xia Ruofei was the big boss of the company, and Pang Hao was also a senior executive. Only Guan Ping was still an ordinary employee.
But Pang Hao had been working with Xia Ruofei when the farm was established, and he was the first generation founder of the company. Now, the company's personnel system was being reformed, and the personnel classification system had been implemented. Xia Ruofei couldn't break the rules for Guan Ping.
"I hope so!" Pang Hao said. "I just feel that it's not worth it for Ping Zi. I persuaded him to come over, but he insisted on staying in that sh * tty company …"
"Everyone has their own ambitions!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile. "Things are hard to predict. No one can predict the future. Whether a decision is right or not, only time will tell …"
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this!" Xia Ruofei said. "Come on! Let's drink! "
Pang Hao and Ye Linyun quickly raised their glasses. The three brothers clinked their glasses, then raised their heads and drank.
The ingredients produced by the Ring-Tu space were all exquisite, and Xia Ruofei's culinary skills were not bad. Pang Hao, who was a foodie, couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food. Soon, he waved his chopsticks and began to eat.
Ye Linyun's chopsticks were obviously much faster, and he ate with relish.
The three of them had a happy dinner. The two liters of Zui Ba Xian liquor were shared among the three of them, and there wasn't a drop left.
After the three of them cleaned up the dishes, they sat in the living room, making tea and chatting. It wasn't until nine o 'clock in the evening that Pang Hao and Ye Linyun got up and left.
Xia Ruofei was a little tipsy. He returned to the bedroom on the second floor, and prepared to decide on the shapes and sizes of the figures he wanted to carve.
He vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a book of visualization pictures in the huge amount of inheritance information in the jade talisman. As for whether it had the shapes he needed, he didn't know.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei first found the book of visualization pictures in his mind and quickly skimmed through it. As expected, it didn't disappoint him. Not only were there images of Buddha and Guanyin in this book of visualization pictures, Zhong Kui and Guan Gong were also in it.
However, he couldn't find the image of Bao Gong.
Bao Zheng was a person from the Northern Song Dynasty. Perhaps the Ring-Tu space had been around for a long time. Perhaps the previous owner of the space lived even earlier than the Northern Song Dynasty! It wasn't strange that there was no image of Bao Gong.
This was all inheritance information that originally existed in Xia Ruofei's mind. Therefore, once he pulled it out, the visualization pictures of Zhong Kui and Guan Gong were imprinted in his mind. They were incomparably clear.
