At the Star City Convention and Exhibition Center.
There were more than a hundred security guards dressed in black security uniforms. They maintained the order of the entire convention center very well. The guests who came to participate in the stone gambling were innumerable. Just as Tan Xiu entered with Tang Xiaohan in his arms, he saw that there were at least two to three thousand people. The whole scene was very lively.
"How come there are so many people here?"
Tan Xiu asked with a bit of disbelief.
Long Zhengyu chuckled and said, "Originally, the stone gambling event was supposed to be held in Blue City. However, there's a big shot in Star City. He used all kinds of connections to make those local tycoons hold the stone gambling event in our city. Therefore, all the rich and powerful people from all over the country who like jade have come to our Star City. That's right, you haven't gone to the hotels recently, have you? All the hotels in Star City are full of guests. "
"How many raw stones did those local tycoons bring?" Tan Xiu was surprised. "To think that they can even attract rich and powerful people from all over the country."
Long Zhengyu said in a low voice, "It's a lot. I heard that half of the raw stones produced in a mine in the South have been brought here by them. In addition, some merchants in the jade business also came over to sell their jade stones and put out batches of raw gemstones. In short, even if you have billions of yuan today, you can spend it all. "
Tan Xiu's eyes lit up. He originally thought that there weren't many raw stones and jade materials this time, but after hearing Long Zhengyu's words, he realized that the jade materials he lacked this time were almost enough.
As the stream of people entered the convention and exhibition center, Tan Xiu could clearly see a lot of raw stones and raw stones in the temporary shacks. Each of the shacks was guarded by staff, and each raw stone had a price tag.
Some stones were priced at a few hundred yuan, some were priced at a few thousand yuan, and some were priced at a few million yuan. What made Tan Xiu feel inconceivable was that some of the raw stones were priced at more than 10 million yuan. This scene was just the outermost shacks that he casually saw. As far as the eye could see, there were at least dozens of shacks inside.
"Zhengyu, do you also want to play?"
Tan Xiu turned to look at Long Zhengyu and asked with a smile.
"I'm a poor man, you know." Long Zhengyu shook his head and said, "I can take out hundreds of thousands now, but I'm afraid I'll suffer a lot if you ask me to take out a million. I'm poor! "
Tan Xiu laughed and scolded, "F * ck off, if you are poor, then there are no rich people in the world! However, you don't have to put yourself in such a difficult situation, do you? Why invest so much money into the business? Also, don't you have all my construction funds? If you can't handle the cash flow, it's not a problem to use it temporarily. "
Long Zhengyu sternly said, "That won't do. Your project funds will be used to rebuild Nine Dragons Island. I can only use the profits after the project is over. Otherwise, you can't use it before the project is over. "
Tan Xiu shook his head with a smile and said, "Alright then! In any case, I don't care about this matter. Just do as you see fit. "
The crowd moved forward.
Tan Xiu's eyes kept glancing at the raw stones in the shacks. After walking for 100 meters and seeing more than a dozen shacks, he finally stopped in front of a shack selling jade materials. The raw stones in this shack were also of poor quality, but most of them were jades. However, it was obvious that these jades had just been taken out from the raw stone raw materials.
"The quality is just so-so."
Tan Xiu looked at them and made a judgment inwardly.
"The jades I have here are pretty good, Sirs. Would you like to buy some?" A middle-aged man with a big belly smilingly looked at the two and asked. Behind him were four young men in suits who kept glancing at the guests in the shack.
Tan Xiu put Tang Xiaohan on the ground and held his hand as they walked inside, replying with a smile, "We're just looking around. We can buy some good jades if we see them."
The fat middle-aged man's smile immediately turned brighter. He patted his chest and said, "Two Little Brothers, the jades I have here are absolutely of good quality. There are some Jade Seed Material, Hetian Jade Material, and Jadeite Material … You can rest assured that the price of the jades here is absolutely fair. "
Tan Xiu looked at the price of the jades and secretly forced a wry smile inwardly. The price of the jades here was very high. Although he was not short of money now, he would have to spend a lot of money if he wanted to stock a lot of jades at this price.
Ten minutes later.
Tan Xiu looked at the fat middle-aged man who was greeting the other guests. After calling him over, he said, "I've seen the jades here. The price is too expensive, and most of them are very ordinary. Let's put it this way! If you can give me a fair price for all the jades here, I'll buy them all. "
"What?"
The fat middle-aged man was dumbfounded. He looked at Tan Xiu incredulously and said, "Are you kidding me, Little Brother? I have a lot of jades here. If it's less than 1.8 billion, it won't be … "
Tan Xiu raised his hand to interrupt him and seriously said, "I'm not kidding you. I need to buy a lot of jades, and you happen to have ready-made ones here. So we can directly trade as long as we agree on the price."
The fat middle-aged man's expression turned serious. He carefully observed Tan Xiu and suddenly furrowed his brows, asking, "Have we met before, Little Brother? Why do I feel that you look familiar? "
"I can assure you that we haven't met before," said Tan Xiu. "Maybe I have a common face, so you feel that I'm a bit familiar."
The fat middle-aged man nodded silently. After looking around, he said in a deep voice, "I'll give you a 10% discount if it's really like what you said and you can buy all the jades here."
"40%. That's my bottom line." Tan Xiu shook his head.
"You can't bargain like that, Little Brother!" The fat middle-aged man shouted. "40% discount? I'll have to pay a lot of money if I sell them to you at a 40% discount. If you're not sincere, then forget it. "
Tan Xiu shook his head and sighed, "It seems we can't do business here. It's fine. Since you're not willing to accept it, I'll look elsewhere. "
Seeing that Tan Xiu was about to leave, the fat middle-aged man quickly said, "15% off. How about 15% off? This is the bottom line that I can bear. "
"40% off." Tan Xiu shook his head.
Saying.
He held Tang Xiaohan's hand and walked outside with Long Zhengyu.
The fat middle-aged man's expression kept changing. Looking at Tan Xiu's back, he wanted to call for help, but the jade materials he had brought in this time were not cheap. If he sold it to Tan Xiu at a 40% discount, not only would he not make a profit, but he would also lose some money. However, if he sold it at a 30% discount, he would be able to break even.
20% off!
This was his bottom line!
Just as Tan Xiu and Long Zhengyu were about to walk out of the shed, the fat middle-aged man strode to catch up and loudly said, "Little Brother, 20% off. We can trade now if you can bear it. But if you can't, then go to another shed and have a look."
Tan Xiu stopped and looked at the jade stones in the shed again. Then, he asked, "How much is the total price of the jade stones here?"
"It's 645 million before the discount," said the fat middle-aged man. "I've sold some before, so there should be more than 610 million left."
Tan Xiu pondered for a moment and nodded, "If that's the case, then let's trade! Calculate the discounted price for me, and then send all the jade materials here to the address I gave you. "
The fat middle-aged man complied and quickly calculated the total price of the rest of the jade stones. After some calculations, he took the list to Tan Xiu and said, "485.32 million. Since Little Brother is so straightforward, then I'll erase the change for you. It's a total of 485 million. If you want me to send someone to deliver all the jade materials to the address you specified, the furthest you can go is Shuangqing Province. Also, you need to pay me 85 million in advance as a deposit. Then, I'll clear the account after the goods arrive. "
"No need to go through so much trouble." Tan Xiu said, "Just send someone to load all the jade materials and then leave with me. The address is not far, just in the Blue City area. We'll exchange the goods when we arrive there. "
"No problem. I'll arrange it now." The fat middle-aged man immediately nodded.
Tan Xiu looked at the hundreds of stones in the corner and smilingly said, "How about you sell all those stones to me? As for the price, 15 million should be enough. How about we round it up to 500 million? "
The fat middle-aged man forced a smile and said, "The total price of my raw stones is more than 30 million, Little Brother. Even if I give you a 20% discount, it's still about 25 million. You … you're too ruthless. "
Tan Xiu smilingly said, "If you have more raw jade materials in the future, I'll buy as many as you can as long as the quality is not worse than this. How about it?"
The fat middle-aged man stared and asked in amazement, "Are you serious?"
"Absolutely," Tan Xiu smilingly said. "But don't be too ruthless. I can't afford to buy tens of billions of jade materials a year!"
The fat middle-aged man was a bit excited. Although he felt that Tan Xiu's additional words were a bit unreliable, he was a local tycoon who could buy 500 million jade materials at once. He could easily make up for the loss of 10 million by buying some of his own jade materials in the future. As he thought of this, he happily said, "Deal!"
Long Zhengyu, who had been standing beside Tan Xiu, immediately said, "Aren't you too ruthless, Tan Xiu? You're not in the jade business. What are you going to do with 500 million jade materials at once? "
Tan Xiu lightly smiled and said, "I'll make a batch of jade artifacts when I have nothing to do in the future."
Long Zhengyu suddenly understood. He knew that Tang Xiu owned Nine Dragons Island and that there was a huge palace on the island. There would be many more palaces after the renovation. At that time, if all the utensils on Nine Dragons Island were to be made of jade, it would definitely look grand and magnificent. However, wasn't spending so much money on jade artifacts a bit too wasteful?
The fat middle-aged man was stunned at the moment.
Tan Xiu?
Could he be the Young Divine Doctor Tan Xiu of Star City Chinese Medical Hospital?
