Chapter 96 She actually believed that they were fishermen!
The salesperson saw that the two of them did not look like fishermen. She guessed that they should be the children of those down-and-out landlords, or that their families were in trouble and were in dire straits. They urgently needed money and sold the pearls saved by their ancestors. .
I have seen too many things like this in the past few years.
Since she needed money urgently, she was sure they would sell it.
Afraid that Jiang Xia would think it was cheap, she pointed to the pearl jewelry on the counter: "Look at the pearl necklaces we have here. The most expensive ones are tens of yuan each, and the most expensive two are more than a hundred yuan each. It’s more than two hundred yuan a piece, and most of the others are twenty or thirty yuan a piece. Look, I’m not lying to you! Isn’t six yuan a piece expensive?”
Jiang Xia took it back to her. She pulled Zhou Chenglei away and said, "I won't sell it anymore. It's six yuan a piece. I'll take it back and grind it into powder and eat it for skin care!"
Can the pearls in the window compare to the one in her hand?
Those are cultured pearls.
Think she is blind?
Salesperson: “……”
Jiang Xia also knows that the price range of pearls is very wide, and there are very cheap ones. It depends on its glossiness, shape, whether there are any flaws, and whether the size and color are rare.
In short, the more perfect the natural pearls, the more immeasurable the price. The best pearls are very rare and are sold at a fixed price.
The pearl she took out was of the highest quality, although gold was not a rare color.
As the saying goes, "seven parts are pearls, eight parts are treasures." This is a natural seawater pearl. It has a perfect round shape, good color, no flaws, and is close to perfect. It is considered a top-quality pearl.
Six yuan?
She is trying to trick her into believing that she has never seen the world of this era!
No matter how valuable money is in this era, she feels it is more than six yuan.
If this pearl is really only worth six yuan, then she can keep it and sell it in a few years when the economy is better and everyone has more money on hand.
Seeing that Jiang Xia really left and stopped selling, the salesperson hurriedly said: "Six dollars and fifty cents, it can't be any higher."
"Let's go!" Jiang Xia took Zhou Chenglei's hand and left. .
The salesperson said again: "How many pearls do you have? If there are more than one, the price will be higher. Let's have a good talk and don't leave yet."
Jiang Xia ignored her and pulled Zhou Chenglei's head. He left without looking back.
The salesperson couldn't bear to miss such a good pearl. After all, top-quality pearls with so few flaws are really rare. She hurried out to stop them: "Don't leave yet! I'll take a closer look. The price is negotiable. If There’s really nothing wrong with it, just seven yuan.”
At this time, a neatly dressed man came out, saw the salesperson in the store stopping the customer, frowned and asked, “What’s going on?”
Hearing the sound Jiang Xia turned around.
Zhou Chenglei also looked back, and then said hello: "Second brother."
The manager of the jewelry store saw Zhou Chenglei, and his face showed surprise: "Captain Zhou? Why are you here?"
Leader?
The salesperson looked at Zhou Chenglei in surprise, such a young leader?
They just said they were fishermen!
If he hadn't said they were fishermen, would she have thought they were poor and offered such a low price?
Zhou Chenglei: "Come to sell pearls."
Zhou Chenglei said to Jiang Xia again: "This is Zhang Rong, the manager of the jewelry store, the second brother of my comrade, you call me second brother."< br>
That must be a comrade with a close relationship, Jiang Xia thought, and then greeted him with a smile: "Second brother."
A slight smile was just right.
Zhou Chenglei said again: "I love Jiang Xia."
Jiang Xia couldn't help but glance at him. He had a nice voice and said the three words "my love", which was quite nice.
Zhang Rong glanced at Jiang Xia with amazement in his eyes, but of course it was just pure amazement.
This was the first time he met Jiang Xia, but that didn’t mean he didn’t know who Jiang Xia was.
He still knows whose daughter Zhou Chenglei married.
He smiled and said: "Hello, brother and sister, say hello to Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang for me."
The salesperson became even more uneasy.
Her attitude towards Jiang Xia just now was really not good.
She knows a little bit about the manager’s background. Can you become the manager of a jewelry store without any background?
I heard that the manager’s hometown is in the capital. His grandfather, father, an older brother and younger brother are all in the military. He also has a younger sister who is studying in Beijing University. It is also said that his grandfather and father have high status.
But you can imagine the background of the person he even wants to say hello to.
She said that she felt at first glance that this couple was unusual. She actually actually believed that they were fishermen!
The salesperson was uneasy.
Zhang Rong smiled again and said: "I haven't congratulated you two on your wedding. I wish you a happy wedding. Come and sit in my office. Don't you want to sell pearls? Come in and chat. Brothers and sisters, please!"
Zhang Rong made a polite gesture of invitation.
Because Zhang Rong's younger brother Zhang Rui was a soldier under Zhou Chenglei, he admired Zhou Chenglei endlessly.
This man went to the battlefield as a teenager. He shot down two enemy fighter planes with his first cannon fire, which was a great achievement. He has accumulated many military achievements in recent years.
Being unanimously regarded as the most promising soldier!
It’s a pity that I injured my ear while on a mission and came back to work as a fisherman.
What a pity!
Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia didn't know what the other person was thinking, so they followed him into the office.
Zhang Rong makes tea by himself.
“The Mingqian Longjing I bought this time is very good. Head Zhou and his siblings will try it.”
Zhou Chenglei: “I have retired from the army, and my second brother just calls me by my name. ”
Zhang Rong said sincerely: "Even if you retire, you will always be the most powerful leader in our hearts. Zhang Rui and I both wanted to cry when we called."
Zhou Chenglei: "It is not good to be misunderstood by others. "
Zhang Rong knew Zhou Chenglei and who he was. Thinking of the reaction of the salesperson in his store, he nodded: "Okay, I understand."
He looked at Jiang Xia: "Didn't my sister-in-law say there are pearls? Let me take a look."
Jiang Xia took out the small bag of pearls wrapped in a handkerchief from her messenger bag.
She borrowed this crossbody bag from Zhou Zhou.
Zhang Rong raised his eyebrows as he looked at the pack of pearls, there were so many?
Seeing his doubts, Zhou Chenglei explained: "I have been fishing at the bottom of the sea for a long time."
"This thing is not easy to fish, but you are still good."
The bottom of the sea. The pressure is great, and most people can't hold their breath for long. He is worthy of being the most versatile and promising soldier in history who has served in the sea, land and air!
Zhou Chenglei knew that he had misunderstood. He had heard these compliments too many times and said nothing.
Zhang Rong poured the bag of pearls onto a tray covered with velvet cloth. As soon as the pearls were poured out, he couldn't help but praise: "They all look good, with very few flaws."
Jiang Xia took out the pair of twin pearls again: "These are from the same pearl."
Zhang Rong put on his gloves, took them and looked at them, and then looked at each one carefully. A pearl, pick out the five best ones and the twins, then point to the remaining pile and say:
“I will give you three hundred yuan for this pile.”
Jiang Xia was a little surprised. Is this pile worth three hundred?
Zhou Chenglei frowned: "Second brother, you don't have to buy it at a loss."
Zhang Rong calculated the price based on the money he could earn from selling these pearls after they were made into jewelry, which was one cent No money is made either.
Of course, just pearls are not profitable. To make jewelry, you need to match some other things, such as gold, silver, etc., and there are also crafting fees. You can still make money, but you will earn a little less.
"Don't worry, it's definitely not a loss. I can't make money from you, so who am I? If my dad, eldest brother, and that guy Zhang Rui find out, I probably won't be able to get in. And you guys These pearls are very good, and I can use them as favors. In the end, I still make a profit.”
Zhang Rong pointed to the few pearls he picked out: "These pearls are considered to be the best pearls. When the time comes, I will take them to Hong Kong City to find someone to buy them. They will definitely not be less than one hundred yuan each. I will give you one hundred yuan first. One piece per piece. After selling it, I will give you the remaining balance later. How about it?”
This is clearly to help them sell it, and it will not make any money.
Zhou Chenglei trusted him: "Sorry to trouble you."
No one knows how to sell a good pearl at the highest price than Zhang Rong.
Zhang Rong waved his hand: "Tell me this! If you have good pearls in the future, please send them over. I will help you sell them, and you will never suffer a loss."
The most flawless natural seawater Pearls are relatively rare, so there is no fixed price. It depends on whether you can find a suitable buyer and try to sell it at a higher price.
Jiang Xia took out the shells of the orangutan sea chrysanthemum clam and tango snail from the basket, and placed the other two pearls in front of their respective shells.
The oval-shaped pearl king was not brought out today. Jiang Xia thought that in this era, there were not many rich people and they could not sell it for its value.
"Brother Zhang, look at these two."
