"Mr. Mu, we've seen this batch of raw stones. From the looks of it, they're all good. We should be able to make a profit."
As soon as he arrived at Fantastic Stones Shop, several employees of Tianfu Branch greeted him and reported to him. It seemed that they were responsible for purchasing raw stones here.
Mu Yanran nodded and said, "Then I will hand it over to President Yun. You are ready to load the truck."
He turned to Ding Ning and said, "Mister Ding, I won't keep you company. You can walk around by yourself."
Ding Ning asked curiously, "Aren't you a jewelry company? Why are you still buying raw stones? "
"Oh, now there are too many jewelry companies in Ninghai, and the pressure of competition is very great. Recently, the price of raw stones in Myan is also rising, and the price of jadeite is also rising. If we directly buy jadeite for processing, it will increase our cost a lot, so our company also set up a stone-gambling house. We cut some raw stones that we are sure of and process them into various kinds of jewelry in the processing house. If we are not sure of them, we will use them in the stone-gambling house.
Mu Yanran explained politely.
Ding Ning suddenly nodded and said with a smile, "Boss Mu, don't you leave your contact information?"
Mu Yanran didn't seem to think that she would have any interaction with him in the future. She glanced at him expressionlessly and said, "It's not necessary."
"My carving skills are passable, right? If you need anything in the future, just give me a call. I might be able to lend a hand. "
Ding Ning knew that if he wanted to conquer the Queen, he must have the opportunity to contact her. At present, what he could do was his carving skills.
He deliberately showed his hand just for this moment. He did not believe that Mu Yanran would not be tempted.
Sure enough, Mu Yanran's eyes lit up. She had always been on guard against Ding Ning's idea on her, so she ignored his excellent carving skills.
At this moment, she realized that she had neglected her duty. She should have tried her best to win over a jade carving master with such skills.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at Fatty Zhang, who had been following not far behind them and looking at Ding Ning from time to time. Only then did he suddenly realize that this guy must have come to rope in Ding Ning.
He thought about how the owner of a small jewelry store had such foresight, but he didn't try to fish for the moon. He was such a failure.
Immediately, he squeezed out a smile on his face and said, "Mr. Ding, may I ask what you are doing now?"
"I just graduated from university. I'm still unemployed for the time being. I might go back to school to continue my postgraduate studies."
Ding Ning said calmly and muttered in his heart, "I don't know if Executive Zhou has settled it. Why hasn't there been any news about my postgraduate studies?"
Mu Yanran frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "Since Mr. Ding wants to continue his studies, he will definitely not be willing to work in any unit now. I have a presumptuous request, but I don't know if I should ask."
"Go ahead!" Ding Ning was a little confused about Mu Yanran's routine and looked like he was all ears.
"I want to invite Mr. Ding to be our company's jade carving master."
Seeing that Ding Ning frowned and seemed to want to refuse, Mu Yanran hurriedly explained, "It's not a full-time job. When we need Mr. Ding's help, we will call you and arrange it according to your schedule. The basic salary is 5,000 yuan, and we will pay you according to the level of the carved jade. What do you think, Mr. Ding?"
"There's a base salary? Isn't this treatment pretty good? "
In fact, Ding Ning didn't care whether there was a base salary or not. What he cared about was that he could have more opportunities to get along with the Ice Queen. Moreover, Mu Yanran had shown her enough sincerity, so he naturally would not refuse. He smiled and reached out his hand,
"Deal. Please take care of me in the future."
"Then I'll have to trouble Mr. Ding to go back to the company with me later. Let's sign the contract. We have only one condition. After signing the contract with our company, Mr. Ding can no longer serve other companies."
"No problem!" Ding Ning agreed without hesitation.
"Then Mr. Ding, you can look around first. I'll find you later and go back to the company together."
Mu Yanran breathed a sigh of relief and was very happy. She generously reached out her white and slender hand and shook hands with Ding Ning. For her, this was a big bargain.
Ding Ning definitely had the level of a top jade carving master. The monthly basic salary of 5,000 yuan was nothing. Even if she paid him 50,000 yuan a month, it was also a good deal.
It should be known that it would easily cost tens of millions to hire a top jade carving master, and it also depended on whether the master was in the mood.
Ding Ning didn't know that he had become a cheap worker in Mu Yanran's eyes. He was very happy in his heart. Now he could have the opportunity to contact the Queen.
Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care. After all, Mu Yanran would arrange work according to his schedule.
Mu Yanran did things cleanly and decisively. She turned around and went to negotiate with the boss here.
Ding Ning looked around like a curious baby. Seeing the raw stones piled up in the Fantastic Stones Shop, he felt a burst of excitement in his heart. "They are all money!"
"Hello, little brother. My name is Zhang Yuhuan, the boss of Jubao House. We've met before."
As soon as Mu Yanran left, the fat man immediately ran over with a flattering smile and handed an antique business card with both hands.
Ding Ning politely took the business card with both hands, but when he heard his name, the expression on his face was extremely strange.
Zhang Yuhuan? Damn, your parents are really talented. Look at your belly, which seems to be seven or eight months pregnant. It's really appropriate. A typical fat man is not as fat as a thin man.
Zhang Yuhuan also seemed to know that his name was a joke. He grinned and said, "It's the name given by my parents. I can't help it. If you want to laugh, just laugh. Don't hold it."
"Haha!"
Ding Ning couldn't help laughing. He had a much better impression of this fat man. He could face up to his shortcomings and didn't care about others' ridicule. Ordinary people couldn't compare with his broad-mindedness.
After laughing for a long time, Ding Ning said with some embarrassment, "Boss Zhang, you are really broad-minded and fat. I'm rude. But if you are too fat, it will increase the burden on your heart, which is not a good thing."
"Alas, I can't help it. I have been fat since I was a child. When I was young, I also exercised more, but the effect was not great. As soon as I stopped, I immediately began to rebound, and I became even fatter than before. I have tried all kinds of weight-loss products, but it didn't work. I also went to the hospital to see a doctor. The doctor said that I have a physique that absorbs easily. Drinking cold water will make me fat.
Zhang Yuhuan rubbed the fat on his belly in distress, and the sweat on his forehead kept flowing like rain.
Ding Ning understood it very well. Just like the Second Master, his weight was not much lighter than Zhang Yuhuan's. He had a physique that was easy to absorb, and he could convert all the nutrition into fat after eating something. Even if he had been doing high-intensity training for decades, he didn't lose any weight.
However, the Second Master's body was full of strong muscles, and his body was very healthy. He couldn't be compared with Zhang Yuhuan, who was full of fat.
Of course, the most important thing was that the Second Master didn't want to become thin, which seemed to be related to the kung fu he practiced. Otherwise, even with his medical skills, it would be a piece of cake for him to lose weight, let alone the Fourth Master.
Fatty Zhang's words made Ding Ning's heart move. "Right, with the improvement of modern living standards, there are more and more fat people. But once people are fat, all kinds of diseases will appear, and serious ones can even endanger their lives. Although there are many weight-loss products on the market, not many of them can really work."
"This market is a very large and profitable one. If I can develop a weight-loss product that works quickly and doesn't rebound, won't I make a lot of money?"
Thinking of this, Ding Ning suddenly became interested. "Boss Zhang, I have a secret recipe for losing weight passed down from my ancestors. Do you want to try it?"
"Forget it, forget it. I've been used to it for so many years. Besides, I'm already a man of dozens of years old. I don't date or pick up girls. Why do I need to lose weight? I don't want to suffer."
Fatty Zhang waved his hand again and again. Losing weight over the years had made him suffer a lot. He had to sweat steaming, exercise, diarrhea tea and so on. He was tortured to the hospital several times.
Now he was terrified and didn't want to lose weight anymore. "I'm here to ask you where you work now. It's a pity that you don't become a jade carving master with your carving skills."
Ding Ning shrugged helplessly and said apologetically, "Boss Zhang, you don't want me to go to Jubao House to be a jade carving master, do you? It's a pity that I just promised Boss Mu to accept her employment. "
"What kind of treatment did she give you? Now you certainly haven't signed the contract, right? Well, I'll talk about the treatment I'll give first, and then you can think about it. "
Zhang Yuhuan's heart was cold, but she still didn't give up and fought for it. "A basic salary of 50,000 yuan per month, and the remuneration will be calculated according to the quality of each piece of jade processed. What do you think?"
Ding Ning's heart trembled, and he shook his head with a wry smile. He didn't expect that Fatty Zhang would give Mu Yanran ten times the basic salary. Even in Ninghai, a person with a basic salary of 50,000 yuan per month was definitely a high-income person.
Mu Yanran, this little girl, was really black-hearted. If it were before, Ding Ning would definitely agree without hesitation. But now, money was no longer a problem for him. His purpose was just to conquer Mu Yanran and satisfy his desire to control a queen. That was all.
Ding Ning's shaking of his head made Zhang Yuhuan mistakenly think that his starting price was too low. She gritted her teeth and said, "100,000 yuan, a basic salary of 100,000 yuan per month, and the remuneration will be calculated separately for each piece of jade processed. My brother's shop is small, and this is the biggest price I can offer."
Ding Ning was a little moved by Zhang Yuhuan's sincerity, but unfortunately, he could only shake his head and refuse, "I'm sorry, Boss Zhang. It's not that your price is low. On the contrary, the price you offered is completely beyond my expectation. But a man should keep his word. Since I have promised someone, I won't go back on my words. I'm really sorry!"
"It seems that I'm really a little unlucky. If only I had asked earlier. Well, since you have promised someone, I naturally won't force you. Come to my shop for tea when you have time in the future. Just consider it as making a friend."
Zhang Yuhuan was also quite generous. He didn't get angry from being refused by Ding Ning. Instead, he appreciated Ding Ning for keeping his promise, so he wanted to make friends with him.
As a qualified businessman, he knew that there was absolutely no harm in making friends with an excellent jade carving master like Ding Ning. Maybe one day he would need his help.
Networking had always been the most important thing for an excellent businessman. Some networking was far more important than money.
Ding Ning said apologetically, "Boss Zhang, do you bring a pen and paper?"
"I have it in my bag." Although Zhang Yuhuan didn't know what Ding Ning was going to do, he still took out a pen and paper and handed it to him.
Ding Ning didn't stand on ceremony. He leaned on a raw stone and began to write quickly.
Zhang Yuhuan tilted his head curiously to see what he was writing. When he saw his words, he suddenly showed a surprised look.
As an antique businessman, he naturally had a deep study of calligraphy and painting, and his appreciation of calligraphy was not bad.
Although Ding Ning was writing with a pen, his words didn't seem to be inherited from any great master. On the contrary, they seemed to be self-contained. The strokes were vigorous, the strokes were lofty, and the murderous spirit of a powerful army was vividly shown on the paper.
