Xue Chao went back to his hometown to rest for two days and then rushed to Haicheng City. Since he didn't want to go back to Sunan City, he simply entrusted a friend to sell the house in Sunan City and planned to rent a house in Haicheng, but Xue Chen directly

Let him live in Jinguan City. The house is three bedrooms large, and it is still very rich.

Uncle Xue Hongxi also came with him, carrying large and small bags. He put them in the living room and took them out one by one: "Xiaochen, your aunt asked me to bring this to you. This is a stupid egg. This

In the pocket are dried pine mushrooms, dried radish, and dried eggplant..."

"Uncle, it's so troublesome to bring them all the way here." Xue Chen looked at so many local goods and said with a smile.

Xue Hongxi waved his hands repeatedly: "It's not troublesome at all, Xiaochen, you are alone in the city and you can't always go out to eat in restaurants. It's not good for your health. You still have to make your own meals. It's convenient and healthy."

Xue Chen originally planned to ask a few people to go out to eat together, but after hearing what his uncle said, he thought for a while that he might as well buy some food and cook it himself. Xue Qi also came over, hugged his arm, and smiled and wanted to go shopping with him.

There was a large supermarket nearby. The two of them walked around and bought a lot of vegetables and meat. When they reached the aquatic products section, the salesperson enthusiastically introduced and promoted various seafood, and mentioned oysters in the process, smiling.

You might be able to eat pearls, and you'll get rich.

Xue Qi asked Xue Chen in surprise: "Brother Chen, can you still eat pearls from oysters?"

"Yes, but the chance is very small, one in hundreds of thousands. And although the transparency and color of pearls produced by oysters are okay, they are usually very small and not of high value." Xue Chen

sermon.

"Brother Chen, you know so much." Xue Qi praised.

Xue Chen smiled lightly, looked at the oysters in the glass jar, his eyes moved, and he touched his chin.

Since he decided to let his cousin handle the branch affairs, Xue Chen naturally wanted to tell Wang Dong and made a phone call to have Wang Dong rush to Jinguan City.

After a brief introduction to both parties, everyone sat down to eat together, and the three of them sat in the living room to discuss the matter of branching out.

"I think the most important thing is the location of the branch, which can directly determine the success of the antique store's business," Xue Chao said.

"Well, that's the truth. Lao Xue, where do you think it is suitable to open a branch?" Wang Dong asked.

Xue Chen lowered his head slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said: "The best area in Haicheng City is only around the Antique Street, but if we open another branch, it will be too close to the Zhuoyue Antique Store. It is easy for the two stores to form a

Due to competition, I am more optimistic about choosing other cities, such as Yang'an and Sunan."

"I think it would be better to choose Yang'an. After all, it is the provincial capital city and the market is bigger." Wang Dong said eagerly.

Soon, the three of them made the decision to open a branch in Yang'an City, the provincial capital.

Xue Chao also immediately decided to rush to Yang'an City tomorrow to inspect the situation, select a suitable location, estimate costs, etc., and do some preliminary work.

"Brother Chao, you should mainly focus on the Heyuan District of Yang'an City. It is best to choose the address of the branch in this area." Xue Chen warned.

"Heyuan District?" Xue Chao looked at Xue Chen incomprehensively. Wang Dong also couldn't figure out why Xue Chen chose Heyuan District.

Xue Chen naturally had his plans. There was only one reason why he chose to open a branch in Heyuan District of Yang'an City. The director of the Heyuan District Public Security Bureau is Zhang Jingxian! They had dinner together and accepted a gift worth hundreds of dollars jointly presented by Lin Xiongtian and him.

Thousands of office computers.

With such a strong relationship, it is natural to make good use of it. In his opinion, with Zhang Jingxian's relationship, it will definitely save a lot of trouble in the process of opening a branch in Heyuan District.

"I know the director of the Heyuan District Public Security Bureau."

Xue Chen's simple words instantly made the two of them understand why they did what they did.

"Damn it, Lao Xue, when did you go to Yang'an City and meet the director of the Public Security Bureau? Why didn't I know?" Wang Dong asked in surprise.

Xue Chao also became increasingly confused about his cousin, who felt that he had friends everywhere and strong interpersonal relationships.

"It's a long story to talk about. I'll talk to you again when I have time." Xue Chen smiled.

"Well, I will go to Yang'an City tomorrow to inspect Heyuan District and find a store that is most suitable for opening a branch." Xue Chao said eagerly. Once the branch is opened, he will be the store manager.

After this, Bentou is naturally very motivated.

After finishing talking about the branch, Wang Dong casually mentioned the chat on the university's KouKou group, curled his lips and said sarcastically: "Hey, I happened to take a look yesterday, and they actually said that the message you sent was

Internet fraud."

"Forget it, they can think whatever they want. Brother Chao is here to help anyway, so don't pay attention to them." Xue Chen waved his hand and said without caring.

"By the way, I saw that Miss Si initiated a class reunion. The time has been set, it will be next Saturday." Wang Dong picked up the watermelon on the coffee table and took a bite.

"Si Ruyu?"

"Well, it's her."

Xue Chen didn't say anything else. He didn't care much about class reunions, but there were a few very good classmates in the class who he had a close relationship with in college that he really wanted to meet.

After teaching his cousin Xue Chao everything about the branch, Xue Chen had to start focusing on another thing, and that was Lin Xirong's birthday!

When Fuji Auction Branch and Xu Ming jointly poured sewage on him, it was Lin Xirong who spared no effort to help him to reverse the situation and wash away the "sewage" from his body. This was a very big favor, and now,

Lin Xiongtian showed mercy to Xue Chaowang again and needs to be thanked as well.

Therefore, on Lin Xirong's birthday this time, no matter what, she should give her a gift that can express her gratitude.

He had been thinking about it since he accepted Lin Xirong's birthday invitation, but he had no suitable choice. When he and Xue Qi were shopping in the supermarket, he thought of a good choice, which was pearls!

The most common and appropriate gift for young women is jewelry, and pearl jewelry is one of the various gemstones that can best support and highlight the charm of women.

The next day, he spent half a day visiting several jewelry stores in the city, but to his disappointment, he did not choose suitable pearl jewelry.

The value of pearls is usually determined by several conditions such as diameter, roundness, color, and place of origin. In particular, the diameter is of great importance. If the diameter is one millimeter larger, the value may increase by ten or twenty times, which makes

The value of pearls varies greatly.

And Lin Xirong is the eldest lady of a jewelry company, and she must have a lot of jewelry. If the goods he sends are mediocre, the other party will definitely look down on her. Instead, he is optimistic about a black pearl necklace from Daxi Real Estate, which is from a jewelry store.

The jewelry in the store is charming in color and very luxurious, but the price tag is 1.5 million, which makes his balls ache.

After walking out of a jewelry store, Xue Chen breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the parking space in the distance. Not far away, he saw a group of people gathered at the entrance of an alley, looking at something lively.

He walked over and took a look, and saw a small tricycle surrounded by the crowd. The cart was filled with fishy-smelling black clams. Standing beside him was a thin, dark man sitting on a horse.

Holding a small knife in his hand, he shouted loudly.

"Pearl mussels, one hundred per pair, two hundred per pair. If you want to get rich, buy a pair. If you find good pearls, you can get thousands or tens of thousands. You can get rich easily. If you pass by, don't miss it."

"Well, a pearl bettor?"

When Xue Chen saw this scene, his eyes fluctuated. He had heard of pearl betting before. He spent money to buy unopened clams and bet on the quality of the pearls inside. Just as the thin black man said, if you open the shell from the clam,

It is indeed possible to become rich overnight if you find the best pearls, but of course the chance is very small.

After taking a look at the clams in the tricycle, Xue Chen shook his head and walked away, because the clams in the tricycle were all too small, about ten centimeters in size. They didn't look like serious pearl clams, and it was basically impossible to get good pearls.

.

However, this showed him a way.

After Xue Chen returned to the car, he immediately made a few phone calls and asked several people. He found out from Xiao Kun that there really was a pearl and mussel farm in Haicheng City, and he could bet on pearls.

"Brother Xue, do you want to play with pearls? If you want to play, I can go with you. I've played a few times and it's a bit fun, but I basically lose money." Xiao Kun said with a hearty smile.

"That's good, Brother Xiao. I'll go find you right away."

Lin Xirong's birthday was coming in less than half a month. Even if he found a suitable pearl, it still needed to be further processed, so time was very tight. Without any delay, he immediately drove to find Xiao Kun.

After the two met, they drove out of the urban area of ​​Haicheng City and came to the pearl mussel farm that Xiao Kun mentioned, which was located next to a small lake.

When the two got out of the car and came to the farm, they saw farm workers rowing boats to fish up clams from the lake. Each clam was 20 centimeters in size and was larger than what was sold on a tricycle at a roadside stall.

It's more than twice as big.

The person in charge of the farm was a man with a scar on his face. When he learned that the two were here to buy clams, he looked at them up and down and gave a price: "Three thousand clams under twenty centimeters each.

A clam over 20 centimeters costs 6,000 yuan."

Xiao Kun frowned: "Why are they so expensive? When I came here last year, there were only four thousand clams over twenty centimeters."

"Hey, as you said last year, this year's vintage is not good. There are relatively few clams produced, and they are all three or four years old. Naturally, the price is high. The price is just like this. If you want to play, you can play. If you find it too expensive,

If you can't afford it, go to the roadside stall to buy them. Those clams are so cheap, you can buy a cart for four thousand yuan." The person in charge of the farm sneered.

When Xiao Kun saw the attitude of the person in charge of the breeding farm, he immediately became a little unhappy and shouted: "How can you speak like this?"

"Oh, I'm a rough guy and I'm used to talking like this. Please tell me whether you want to buy it or not." The person in charge raised his eyelids and looked like he was too lazy to pay attention.
