The person selling jade was a female shopkeeper.

The boss brought along a piece of Hetian jade that was reasonably priced and of good quality.

"What kind of thing would you like to see, young comrade?"

That tone was incredibly polite.

Song Li sensed it; the service attitude here was completely driven by businessmen who prioritized profit above all else.

Unlike the small landowners in their area.

Many of them still sell their products through supply and marketing cooperatives.

Those salespeople were arrogant and dismissive.

Indeed.

Because apart from the capital city, there is no other place with privately owned shopping malls.

That private shopping mall in Beijing was actually a foreign trade store.

However, aside from the fact that the boss himself is not very ethical, many people here are still very polite to customers.

After all, who would turn down money?

Song Li had never been interested in Hetian jade before, but after seeing these pieces of white jade of different grades placed together, he was quite impressed.

The difference between good and bad immediately becomes apparent.

Good mutton fat jade is truly warm and delicate.

He has a bit of the feeling of the second brother.

This white jade is perfect for my second brother, who wears a white shirt.

Lu Cheng saw Song Li quietly looking at the Hetian jade.

I thought to myself: Does she really like this kind of Hetian jade?

Think about the money you have.

Thinking about this is definitely not enough.

But it wouldn't make sense to buy her things with her money, so I'll just have to buy them in the future.

Song Li then looked towards the jadeite.

At that time, there was very little jadeite material available, and people placed more emphasis on color. It was only later that they began to pay attention to the icy quality of jadeite.

Song Li looked over.

There aren't many varieties of jadeite.

Song Li immediately spotted a top-quality emerald green jade.

"Boss, how big is this area?"

The shop owner looked at the one in the glass case: "This one has a 58mm lipstick."

Song Li thought for a moment.

Lu's mother's hands should be about the same.

She spotted it at first sight and thought it would look great on Lu's mother.

This green bracelet would definitely look good on someone with fair skin.

Despite living in the countryside, Lu's mother has a very fair complexion.

Of all of Lu's mother's children, only Lu Cheng inherited it.

Therefore, coupled with his facial features, he was simply a gentle and refined gentleman.

Lu Zhou and Xiao Nan both have yellow skin.

I just don't know what kind of person the eldest son of the Lu family is.

"How much is this?"

The boss looked the two of them up from head to toe.

Although they were dressed simply, the materials they wore were quite nice.

She had never seen them before.

After thinking it over, the proprietress said, "If you like it, young man, I won't sell it to you at a high price. I'll give it to you for eight hundred yuan. If it were someone else, I would have to sell it to them for at least a thousand."

Song Li was surprised.

Eight hundred yuan.

Find a bargain!

Why bother gambling on stones?

You can buy finished products; jadeite isn't expensive these days.

In fact, Song Li didn't know that the jadeite at that time was not worth that price at all.

Anything below that is definitely possible.

The more popular jade is, the higher the profit margin.

At that time, jade was not popular at all.

So it couldn't possibly sell for that price, and the profit margin wasn't that high either. But the proprietress saw that Song Li and his companion were young, so she quoted a little higher price to test the waters.

The proprietress thought Song Li's surprised expression was an overreaction.

The proprietress wondered: Had she guessed wrong? Did these two young men not have much money?

Song Li then frowned again.

The proprietress was now absolutely certain she had shouted too high.

Song Li: "Boss lady, you're charging way too high! You know, right now everyone's buying Hetian jade, hardly anyone's buying jadeite. Your price isn't fair!"

The proprietress smiled and said, "Young man, this is the price you call out; the price you pay is what you get when you sell it. If you really like it, you can bargain down!"

Song Li thought for a moment.

"Okay, I'll buy one, and you won't know how to get a discount. I'll pick out two more, and the shopkeeper will give me a price based on what I see. If it's a good deal, I'll buy them both. If not, I'll look at two more shops. I originally came to look at antiques, and I never expected to buy jade."

Upon hearing this, the proprietress's smile became even more enthusiastic.

"Alright, alright, take your time choosing, young man. I'll definitely give you the best price."

Song Li was thinking of Xiao Nan. There was a safety buckle next to her, which was obviously made of the same material as the bracelet.

This is for Xiaonan to wear around her neck.

It's a matching set for mothers and daughters.

"How much does this safety amulet cost?"

Xiaonan is currently studying, so wearing a watch is fine for her, but wearing a bracelet would definitely be inconvenient.

Therefore, this safety buckle is more suitable to be worn around the neck.

"This costs one hundred and twenty yuan," the proprietress said straightforwardly.

Upon hearing this, Song Li realized that the price was significantly better than before.

Song Li then took a liking to the floral bracelet next to her.

Jadeite is classified into the following types based on its texture: glass type, high-ice type, ice type, glutinous ice type, glutinous type, and bean type.

This type belongs to the icy variety, so it's considered quite good.

I just don't know how much money I can get.

And since they're a pair, you can take them both off.

The flower's texture is also very beautiful.

In her previous life, Song Li loved the floating flower bracelet because it was the only one she could afford.

I also like Imperial Green!

But that kind of thing is not something she can possess.

Quietly examine the bracelet in front of you.

Song Li liked it at first sight.

"What are the size rings for these two bracelets?"

"These two! One is 60, and the other is 52."

Song Li: One is too big and the other is too small.

Neither of them are the best betting options.

The best caliber is around 56.

But this small one is just right for her.

"How much?"

The proprietress was also straightforward: "None of them are the best rings, so I'll give you three hundred each!"

"What about the one from before?"

The shopkeeper looked at the emerald green jade and said, "Young man! This one is colored, and the cheapest I can offer you is 600. I can't go any lower."

Song Li was making plans in his mind.

The four items cost a total of 1,300.

Song Li thought for a moment and said, "Boss, I really like it too. Four hundred, here's an auspicious number for you: 1200. May your business prosper every month."

The boss heard this.

It's like giving that safety amulet away for free.

The proprietress said, "Well, 1200 is like giving this safety amulet to you for free."

Song Li: "I bought a lot, so it's only right that the boss gives me some freebies. Consider it attracting a loyal customer. From now on, I'll only buy jade from you, and I won't even glance at other stores."

The proprietress thought Song Li was sweet-talking and knew how to speak well.

In the end, they agreed to sell.

The main problem is that there are too few people buying jade.

"Alright, alright! Then next time you need to buy jade, you can only come to me. These jade sellers haven't made any money off you; they're practically giving you your money back at cost. The main thing is that I felt we were destined to be together the moment I saw you, little sister."

Song Li: They are all people with a special connection!

Song Li: "Ah! That's so kind of you, sister. If my friend has one and likes it, I'll bring her to buy it from you too."

Haha, that's a common tactic used by businessmen.

Selling at cost price?

If I had any, I'd have to say I sold it to you at a loss.

The proprietress smiled as she packed up the bracelets and safety buckles.

Song Li: Boss, could you please keep your smile a little more composed?

You're praising yourself so much, I'm starting to wonder how much you've actually made off me!

The proprietress finished wrapping it up in no time.

Then Song Li took out two stacks of money from his bag.

The proprietress thought to herself: This is a rich man's daughter!

I just casually strolled around town with two thousand yuan in my pocket.

They must be very wealthy.

Guangzhou is truly a place where hidden talents abound.

In the early stages of reform, there were wealthy people.
