Goldfinger is a bit strange
Chapter 683 This is fair competition (1/2)
Liu Qingshan looked at the middle-aged man who bid 5,000 yuan. He was wearing a white Doliang half-sleeve, a pair of leather sandals at his feet, and shaking a folding fan in his hand.
This guy had a smile on his plump face. He looked like he was not a local, and his accent sounded a bit like the capital city.
Uncle Lu leaned into Liu Qingshan's ear and whispered: "This man is the largest jade wholesaler here, Liu Datou."
Liu Qingshan looked at the man's head again and found that it was indeed one size larger than the others, so he smiled and waved his hand: "Not for sale."
"That's right, the elders just set a price, at least more than 10,000 yuan, and you only have to ask for 5,000 yuan."
Li Likun also said something unceremoniously to the other party. This was not a matter of taking advantage at all. It was clearly bullying foreigners.
Liu Datou still had a smile on his face: "Young people, don't be too angry. Our rules here are that jade must be sold at the exchange."
"You are a second-rate dealer, not from the exchange."
Lu Fang replied that he and Uncle Lu had dealt with this Liu Datou.
Even though this guy had a smile on his face, his actions were extremely dark. The price of the jade was increased tenfold.
Liu Datou waved his folding fan calmly: "I am a consignee hired by the exchange. Of course I am qualified to purchase jade."
"On your side, without our permission, don't even think about taking away a piece of jade from here, even an ordinary stone."
"Where did you come from? Go back there, don't you not even be able to go back home!"
That's right, this guy is looking for trouble at first glance.
Obviously the other party also knew that Liu Qingshan and his group were going to get involved in the jade business, and this was a verbal warning.
Li Likun and Lu Fang were both strong-blooded men, so of course they couldn't stand these words. Suddenly, a cold light flashed in Li Likun's hand, and a military thorn suddenly appeared:
"Liu Datou, you smiling tiger, the jade is here, come and get it if you have the ability!"
But Liu Datou was not moved at all: "Young man, doing business is not about killing, and jade cannot be smuggled. This is clearly stipulated by the above."
"If you don't comply, law enforcement agencies will naturally come to deal with you. Listen to others and have enough to eat."
Liu Qingshan waved his hand and asked Li Likun and the others to carry the jade: "Let's go to the exchange to have a look."
Liu Datou thought that the other party was giving up, and smiled contemptuously: "It's still the same everywhere."
The urban area of Hotan is not very big. In 1984, it was transformed from a county into a city.
Soon, a group of people arrived at the Jade Stone Collection Exchange. Even old man Alimu came with a dozen men.
The men all carried knives at their waists, and all of them looked grim.
Inside the exchange yard is a row of bungalows, with some poplar trees planted in the yard.
More than a dozen people were queuing up to sell the jade they picked up.
Among them, there are locals wearing national costumes, and there are also Han people wearing blue cloth clothes and blue hats.
There are baskets at people's feet, with one or two or three pieces of jade scattered in them.
"It's started, it's started, everyone lines up!" With a lazy voice, a young man in work clothes, with a cigarette in his mouth, began to buy jade.
At the front of the queue was a young boy. He struggled to pick up a large black stone and placed it on the wooden table.
"What the hell are you talking about? You've hacked your stuff and thrown it on the roadside without anyone picking it up. You won't take it back."
The young staff member stretched out his hand and pushed the big stone to the ground.
If that little boy hadn't been able to dodge quickly, he might have gotten his foot smashed.
"This is the jasper I picked out from the Karakash River. Do you know the goods?"
The young man was obviously angry and pointed at the staff member's nose and asked.
Old man Alimu also came up, looked at the black stone, and then nodded: "It's a very good jasper, worth at least a few hundred yuan."
The young staff member sneered: "Your jasper is black, so you don't know how to bully me, do you?"
Old man Alimu also looked disgusted: "Since you are a collector of jade, you don't know this bit of professional knowledge!"
"The jasper in the Karakash River will form a black stone skin on the outside. If the outer stone skin is rubbed away, the best jasper will be found inside."
The people selling jade were in an uproar when they heard this: "Yes, such an ignorant and unskilled person is worthy of being an inspector!"
"Why are you making such a fuss? I really thought I was willing to play with these broken rocks."
The young staff member blew out the cigarette butt on the ground and waved his arm very arrogantly: "Do you want to sell it or not?"
They are state-owned, so that's the attitude.
Liu Qingshan also shook his head in shock. Although this exchange will be disintegrated within a few years, the trading of jade will tend to be liberalized and left to the market.
However, in recent years, the price of jade materials has also been the lowest, and Liu Qingshan also wanted to seize this opportunity and hoard more jade materials.
The little boy finally left with the piece of jasper in a basket, wiping his eyes as he walked, obviously very angry.
The young staff member continued to receive the goods.
It's not that this guy doesn't understand at all, it's just that the price is set too low. In Liu Qingshan's opinion, white jade of good quality only costs a few yuan per kilogram.
If there wasn't something fishy in it, it would be weird.
After collecting the jade, use a brush dipped in red ink to mark the grade and weight on the surface of the jade.
The dozen or so people in front had all sold out their jade, and they all looked miserable when they left.
Liu Qingshan observed that the money in their hands was at most dozens of yuan, and some only had a few yuan.
Compared with the value of jade, it is too cheap.
Finally it was Liu Qingshan's turn. Cao Xiaofei and Li Likun carried the piece of white jade to the table. The young staff member looked at it sideways and probably saw that it was a good thing, so he came closer to take a closer look.
Cough, there was a slight cough from the side.
I saw Liu Datou throw a cigarette to the staff member, and then said with a smile: "I have already seen this piece of jade, second class."
"Brother Liu, okay, okay." The staff member nodded and lit a cigarette happily.
After weighing, the staff said to Liu Qingshan:
"Second-grade white jade, sixty kilograms, fifty yuan per kilogram, three thousand yuan in total. Haha, you are really lucky. It will be enough for you to make two years."
The people who came with Liu Qingshan also looked at each other with big eyes: Three thousand? What a joke!
At this time, a big head came to Liu Qingshan's eyes: "Hey, brother, what do you think? If you don't sell it for five thousand yuan, it will be a shame if you sell it now."
Liu Qingshan still had a smile on his face: "Then I'd better not sell it, I can just keep it for myself."
"That's your right, hahaha." Liu Datou laughed wildly.
When Liu Qingshan and his party left the yard of the exchange, Liu Datou spit on the ground:
"I don't know how deep it is, so I dare to take a dip in this muddy water. Is the hair all grown up?"
At this time, a few more people came up and said, "Brother Big Tou, that kid is mixing with that old guy Alimu, we'd better be careful."
"I don't believe what tricks he can pull off. Let's go and call the people from the exchange to have a drink." Liu Datou waved his hand in an imposing manner.
At ten o'clock in the morning the next day, dozens of people were already queuing up at the Jade Stone Collection Exchange, preparing to sell jade.
Today there were two groups of jade mining teams coming down from the mountain, so there were quite a lot of people.
Those who can go up the mountain are strong men with rich experience and good physical fitness.
Although their clothes were in tatters and their spirits were relatively tired, excitement could not be concealed on everyone's face.
In each person's backpack, there is jade weighing more than ten or dozens of kilograms. If you are lucky, you can sell it for a good price, which will be enough for a family to spend for a year.
At this time, a young boy walked into the yard of the exchange angrily and threw a black stone on the ground with a thud.
"Little guy, don't cut in line." Someone in the team joked with a smile.
But I saw the little guy take out an iron hammer and raise it high:
"They say I'm just a broken rock. I'll break it open and let you see if there's jasper inside!"
At this time, a voice came over: "Don't smash it, don't smash it, we'll take it."
Xiao Balang put down his hammer and looked at the person who spoke, but he was not a staff member of the exchange.
That person was Cao Xiaofei, and he shouted with a smile:
"We also accept jade over there, and the price is fair. Old man Alimu sets the price himself."
When these people heard Alimu's name, they no longer hesitated and followed Cao Xiaofei out with their baskets and baskets on their backs.
Just diagonally opposite, there used to be a few empty rooms, but now there are desks and small scales, and there are a few people, sitting or standing, waiting there.
There are two signs standing next to it, with the words "Acquisition of Jade" written in two characters respectively.
The little boy ran over first, saluted Alimu who was sitting behind the table and drinking tea, and called "Bova", which is roughly equivalent to grandpa.
"Little guy, your piece of jasper is pretty good. I'll order it for you."
Alimu had already seen it yesterday, so he didn't need to take a closer look. He waved his hand and asked Lu Liang next to him to weigh it.
The young man immediately jumped up excitedly. The price of first-class jasper is 80 yuan per kilogram. His piece weighs about 10 kilograms, which is 800 yuan!
After Lu Liang weighed himself, he wrote a ticket to Xiao Balang and told him to go to Li Likun to collect the money.
Seeing that he was too young, Li Likun asked him to call the adults at home. If a child takes so much money, he will be in trouble if he loses it.
Two locals in the crowd stood up and said that they were from the same village as this young boy and would go back together.
Li Likun then handed the eight hundred and twenty yuan to Xiao Balang's hand.
This made the little guy so excited that he kept saluting everyone.
Other people selling jade also looked happy and talked a lot: "It seems that the waiting list here is more fair, isn't it?"
"Of course, Elder Alimu is famous for his fairness."
Liu Qingshan looked at this scene with a smile. He knew that with the prestige of the old man Alimu and the fair price, he would definitely be able to win all these jade pickers to their side.
The purchase of jade progressed very quickly, with waiting, weighing, and payment all in an orderly manner.
The people who had sold the jade all looked happy. This was not the first time they had sold jade, and they had a rough idea of what they had in their hands.
However, after they got the money, they found that it was basically twice as much as expected. Why didn't this make them smile?
Although the acquisition progressed quickly, the number of people queuing up did not decrease, because people continued to join in.
The exchange opposite was empty, with no one in sight.
After the business opened, several staff members of the exchange were quite puzzled: What happened today?
But it was just right when there was no work, and it was time to relax, so a few people got together and started chatting and spanking. 7K妏揩
After a while, I saw Liu Datou leading a few second-level dealers rushing in. Liu Datou, who was always smiling on weekdays, had an angry look on his face today. He shouted when he entered the hospital:
"You still have time to drink tea, but your business has been taken away by others!"
Soon, several staff members appeared at Liu Qingshan's side along with Liu Datou and the others.
"It's a pity. This piece of seed material is just a little bit close to the grade of mutton-fat jade. Let's count it as special second grade. Can you see if it works?"
Old man Alimu played with a piece of jade the size of a goose egg with a regretful expression on his face, and asked a middle-aged woman wearing a headscarf in front of him for advice.
The woman nodded repeatedly: "Okay, that's great. I got it from the exchange a few days ago, and they priced it at first-class white jade. I wasn't willing to sell it."
The price difference between first class and special second class is more than double.
This piece of seed material, less than one kilogram, was sold for more than 500 yuan, and the woman was so happy that she thanked her profusely.
He was still muttering: "I still have a few pieces at home. I'll go get them now. Your prices are fair."
Among the crowd, several people immediately responded, saying that they wanted to sell the high-quality jade they collected at home here.
The staff who saw this scene felt a little feverish on their faces.
As for Liu Datou's second-rate dealers, each of them had evil eyes, as if they wanted to devour Liu Qingshan and the others.
"You are stealing business!"
Yesterday, the young staff member finally couldn't hold himself back and started to show off.
Everyone else was busy, even Uncle Lu was helping old man Alimu to order the jade. Liu Qingshan just looked at it and was busy, so he smiled and said:
"Comrade, this is not about grabbing business. This is a market economy. What we have is fair competition."
The young staff member was not convinced: "But the purchase price you set is too high, how can we charge it?"
"Our pricing is fair and reasonable. You set it too low before."
Old man Alimu replied without raising his head.
The local custom is to respect the elders the most, so the young man did not dare to lose his temper at Alimu.
At this time, Liu Datou rushed to Liu Qingshan and shouted:
"You are collecting jade here, who approved it?"
Liu Qingshan looked at the other party with disdain: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
"you……"
Big Liu's head couldn't help but get furious: "Okay, let's see!"
Amid bursts of laughter, Liu Datou and his party left in disgust.
Looking at their backs, old man Alimu shook his head slightly: "The fox will not be content if he doesn't steal the chicken."
The corners of Liu Qingshan's mouth raised slightly: "Then let's get rid of the fox."

The earth was hazy, and there was a ruined city, silent and lifeless in the dim red rain of blood.
The city is in ruins and everything is withered. Collapsed houses can be seen everywhere, as well as blue-black corpses and pieces of meat, like broken autumn leaves, silently withering.
The streets that used to be bustling with people are now desolate.
The sandy dirt road that used to be bustling with people is no longer noisy now.
Only blood and mud mixed with minced meat, dust, and paper were left, indistinguishable from each other, which was shocking.
Not far away, a broken carriage was stuck deep in the mud, full of sadness. Only an abandoned rabbit doll hung on the shaft, swaying in the wind.
The white fluff has long been soaked into wet red, full of eerieness.
The turbid eyes seemed to have some residual resentment, looking lonely at the mottled rocks in front of them.
There, a figure was lying down.
This was a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, his clothes were torn and covered with dirt, and he had a broken leather bag tied around his waist.
The young man squinted his eyes and remained motionless. The biting cold penetrated his worn coat from all directions and spread throughout his body, gradually taking away his body temperature.
