Rebirth of the Nine-Three Era

Yin Yuan sat with three local Hainan painters while having dinner.

One is named Liu Weibiao, one is named Pan Hong, and the other is named Liu Xianfu.

They are all famous painters around 40 years old.

Pan Hong is a woman. She said: "Among the more than 30 female painters this time, I am the oldest one. I am 45 years old. I will be old in a few years."

She asked: "Xiao Yin, are you 25 years old? This time, you are the youngest in terms of age."

Yin Yuan said: "I am 26 years old this year, and there seems to be a female painter in her 20s in Hunan Province."

Pan Hong said: "That Xia Ling, she is also in her early thirties. She is short and has a baby face, so she looks small."

Liu Weibiao said: "If Chen Dongsheng and Yang Zhiguang are from Guangdong Province, they seem to be a little dissatisfied with you, saying that your paintings have not yet formed their own characteristics."

Pan Hong said angrily: "Brother Yin, don't listen to what others say, just be yourself. Only great painters have their own unique style. Painters of our age are still in the exploratory stage. As long as you can paint something that people can see What resonates spiritually in the end is a good painting. I can’t stand those people who rely on their old age to show off their old age.”

Yin Yuan said: "No matter what they say, I don't care about them. In fact, painting is just my business hobby, just a hobby, just like playing Go. If I devote all my energy, I will not be as good as Ma Xiaochun." A few months ago, he went to Hong Kong to participate in the Masters Tournament and passed by Yangcheng. I played a game with him, and he beat me by two and a half eyes. In fact, my main interest is still in doing business..."

Liu Xianfu had a look of disdain on his face.

The young man boasted so much that he didn't even need to write a draft.

Your Go level is about the same as Ma Xiaochun's. Why do you want to be a painter? Wouldn't it be nice to be a celebrity?

Ma Xiaochun's fame has almost reached that of Marshal Nie, who even plays bridge with big shots.

He is also a master of Go himself.

He said: "Xiao Yin turns out to be a master of Go. We can play a game later."

Yin Yuan said: "When I go out to paint and I don't bring Go and chess equipment, how can I play?"

Liu Xianfu said: "I have."

Yin Yuan said: "I didn't expect Brother Liu to carry chess equipment with him. He must have played chess frequently and his level is pretty good."

Liu Weibiao said: "He is just average, ranked third in Hainan."

Yin Yuan said with a smile: "It turns out that it's a mastermind's fault. I'm disrespectful. Brother Liu will have to be merciful later."

Liu Xianfu thought: "I just want to kill you personally to save you from bragging everywhere."

Liu Weibiao asked him: "Xiao Yin, you said you are interested in doing business. What business have you done?"

He also runs a furniture factory.

Yin Yuan said: "I have many things to do. I opened a decoration company, a building materials factory, a building materials store, a paint factory, a construction company, developed a commercial street, and planted more than 100 acres of bananas. Last time I went to Vietnam, I sold three Ten tons of Vietnamese Huanghuali. Yesterday, [-] tons of Vietnamese Huanghuali were brought back to Jiangming at three timber receiving points including Lu Benwei in Dongfang City, Wang Shijie in Changjiang City, and Li Ruisheng in Ledong City. Today, another [-] tons were ordered. .”

At first Liu Weibiao thought he was bragging, but he named all three people at the delivery point.

Because Liu Weibiao often asked them for wood, he thought he was telling the truth.

"Did you contact me yourself, or did you ask for goods from a certain company?"

"I passed by the old director of Yangcheng Foreign Trade Co., Ltd. and asked for [-]-year-old trees. He gave me [-] tons. Mr. Liu, you are local. Is this price expensive? I want avocados from the west, because avocados are good. Harder and more compact than a sugar pear.”

Liu Weibiao said: "The price is not expensive. It costs over [-] yuan directly at our local timber purchase point."

Yin Yuan talked to him about Hainan Huanghuali.

"In Hainan, a lot of huanghuali wood was used in the construction of many old houses. Is there a trading market that specializes in purchasing this kind of old wood?"

Liu Weibiao told him that there were several in Hong Kong, and old wood from all over the island would be pulled there.

Yin Yuan said: "When I go back, I will go to the timber trading markets in Haikou to have a look."

After dinner and a shower, Yin Yuan came to Liu Xianfu's room.

Liu Weibiao also came to watch the battle.

He said: "Xiao Yin, I hope you can defeat Lao Liu, because his chess skills are better than mine, so he often shows off in front of me."

Liu Xianfu said: "I'm telling the truth, okay? How can I show off? Just like Xiao Yin said, I didn't put all my energy into playing Go, otherwise Ma Xiaoxun might not be able to beat me. Haha …”

Yin Yuan knew that he was making fun of himself, so he remained silent. Whether he was bragging or not, he would know in the next game.

Liu Xianfu went down first with black in hand.

After the layout, Yin Yuan adopted a pressing technique and did not give Liu Xianfu any ability to fight back.

Keep an eye on his loopholes and tear apart his defenses, making him play dangerously every move in order to survive.

But his own chess moves were ever-changing, leaving his opponents confused.No way to start.

In less than a hundred glances, Liu Xianfu already knew that his defeat was certain.

"Xiao Yin's chess skills are indeed the highest I have ever seen. I underestimated you."

Yin Yuan said: "I said, with Ma Xiaochunxia, ​​if I perform well, I will not necessarily lose to him."

At this time, Liu Xianfu didn't realize that he was bragging.

Liu Weibiao began to think that it would be a disparity in strength, with Yin Yuan being the weakest, because Liu Xianfu was indeed among the top three in the Hainan chess world.

Whether it's Go or chess.

But now he knows that Liu Xianfu is the weak one.

Although he saved no chess moves and was killed by the dragon, he lost miserably.

Liu Xianfu said: "Comrade Xiao Yin, can I play a game of handicap chess with you, and you give me three pieces?"

Yin Yuan thought to himself: So what if I let you have five sons.

He gave Liu Xianfu three eyes. At the beginning, Liu Xianfu was able to maintain his balance.

However, Yin Yuan's ever-changing chess moves still overwhelmed him. After playing more than 100 moves, he admitted that he had lost.

He said with shame: "Today I have met a real master. I used to brag about how strong my chess skills are. After playing two games with you today, I realized that I am really short-sighted. The other two people in Hainan will definitely not be you." The opponent..."

He said to Liu Weibiao: "How about you come and play the next round with Xiao Yin?"

Liu Weibiao said: "I can't even defeat you. If I compete with Xiao Yin, I will only lose worse."

The three of them chatted about painting.

Yin Yuan returned to the room to rest.

Lin Wanting called and told him that the wood had been unloaded on the open space of the paint factory.

The construction manager arranged for workers to harden all the ground, and remitted the deposit of 20 cubic meters of huanghuali to the foreign trade company.

Two cubic meters of 2-year-old wood have been moved inside.

In the afternoon, two furniture factory owners each requested two cubic meters of goods and paid for them.

Yin Yuan deliberately called Cheng Qian in Dagan.

"Hello, Mr. Cheng. I have received a cart of Hainan huanghuali, priced at [-] cubic meters. All of them are oil pear wood that is over a hundred years old. Do you want to pay for a few cubic meters?"

Four tons have been sold today, and the payment of 38 yuan has been recovered. Tomorrow, another furniture factory owner will ask for 2 cubic meters, and the remaining 2 cubic meters are old materials. Only 3 cubic meters can be sold. I believe it will be sold out in a short time.

It doesn't matter if he wants it or not.

Cheng Qian said helplessly: "You, Mr. Yin, don't want to take credit. Since you don't have the funds, there is nothing you can do if you want to take your goods."

Yin Yuan would definitely not agree to pay him the debt.

Then a phone call came to him.

"Hello, Mr. Yin, I am Ling Zhenxing, and my wife is that Russell Su, do you remember?"

Yin Yuan said: "Remember, your wife is a doctor at Xiangshan Hospital and is a classmate of my wife's master, Dr. Du. I met you once at my cousin's house..."

"Yes, yes, that's me. That's right. I heard Huang Shaoqi say that you bought dozens of cubic meters of Vietnamese huanghuali last time. Why didn't you inform me? If you knew, I would also like a few cubic meters of goods."

Yin Yuan said: "I'm sorry, I forgot to say hello to you. Now I just brought back ten tons of Hainan huanghuali, and I still have a few cubic meters of goods. If you want, go to my paint factory in Jiangming to pick up the goods."

Ling Zhenxing said: "I have received a big order now. I need 60 cubic meters of Laotian Siamese rosewood material. Is it available?"

Dong Huaping told Yin Yuan: "Our company can import any kind of wood. The current purchase price of this kind of Laos Siamese rosewood is [-] cubic meters, and the market price is [-] cubic meters."

Including freight expenses, one cubic meter can earn at least [-] yuan. Of course, if the quantity is large, it can be done.

"There is no inventory. If you need it, I can help you get the goods within a week. However, you need to pay a 20% deposit. The price is [-] cubic meters. The goods can be sent directly to your furniture factory."

Ling Zhenxing said: "The price is OK, and you can save on freight. How about this? I'll pay you a deposit of 15 cubic meters. 15 cubic meters is 9 for the goods, and the deposit is only 1.8. You can't haul 60 cubic meters at a time, right?" One truck pulls 15 cubic meters of goods. When the goods arrive, I will pay you for the 15 cubic meters of goods, and the deposit will not be deducted until you have finished pulling 60 cubic meters of goods."

Yin Yuan said yes.

Ling Zhenxing asked Yin Yuan to tell him the account number, and he would ask the finance department to transfer the money tomorrow.

Yin Yuan called Dong Huajun.

"Mr. Dong, I want 60 cubic meters of Laos Siamese rosewood material. How many days will it take to get the goods?"

Dong Huajun said: "The goods will definitely arrive within a week. This wood is usually in stock. You don't have to wait. It can be loaded over there. It only takes four or five days on the road."

Yin Yuan said: "Ask them to send one truckload of goods every day, containing 15 cubic meters, and deliver it in four days, because the customer promised to settle the payment for one truckload of goods."

Dong Huajun said: "No problem, I will do as you say."

He told Yin Yuan that 20 cubic meters of Hainan Huanghuali might not be available until a week later.

Yin Yuan said no problem.

According to his agreement with the foreign trade company, he needs to pay a 40% deposit when placing an order, and the full payment must be paid when the goods arrive.

This time, he agreed with Dong Huajun to settle the 60 cubic meters of Siamese rosewood in two installments, and he would pay half of it if he collected 30 cubic meters.

Dong Huajun agreed.

Just as Yin Yuangang was about to lie down and sleep, he received another call from Huang Shaoqi.

"Xiao Yuan, how much does the old red rosewood material from Myanmar cost per cubic meter?"

Yin Yuan told him it was 5000 yuan/cubic.

Even though he has worked in a furniture factory for many years, the price of wood still changes frequently.

Huang Shaoqi said: "My factory needs 100 cubic meters of red rose pears. Can you help me get the goods?"

Yin Yuan said: "No problem, I am very familiar with the boss of the foreign trade company in Yangcheng. This time I ordered dozens of cubic meters of Hainan Huanghuali from them. I will give others 5000 yuan/cubic, and I will give you 4500 yuan/cubic. Come on Cube and ask the driver to deliver the goods directly to your factory."

Huang Shaoqi said unexpectedly: "With 4500 yuan per cubic meter, you won't lose money?"

Yin Yuan said: "If you lose money, how dare your relatives make money from you?"

The Burmese Caohuali Foreign Trade Company quoted him 4000 yuan/cubic, and the freight was 150 yuan/cubic. Even if it was 4500 yuan/cubic, he could still make several hundred dollars.

Huang Shaoqi said: "I will transfer the payment to you tomorrow."

In the past, when he went to other timber dealers to ask for goods, it was also 5000 yuan per cubic meter. Now Yin Yuan saves him 500 yuan per cubic meter, and one hundred cubic meters is 5 yuan.

I saved 50 by purchasing goods ten times a year.

I really didn’t know how much money I spent in vain.

He told his father about this, and his father also lamented that the profits from timber trafficking were so huge.

Why didn't we think of this before?

There are more than 100 furniture factories in Dachong Town, and the annual sales volume of wood exceeds tens of thousands of cubic meters.

It turns out that in this industry, it is not the furniture factories that really make the big money, but the lumber dealers.

He told his son that he would ask Xiao Yuan to help him purchase wood in the future.

And the price he gave our factory must not be discussed with other colleagues.

Of course, even though it was eleven o'clock at night, he still called Dong Huajun.

"100 cubic meters of Burmese red rosewood material, it will arrive in one week, right?"

Dong Huajun said: "The wood will be in stock, and it is dry and old material. It can be loaded onto the truck when the order is placed tomorrow, and delivered to the furniture factory in four or five days."

Yin Yuan said: "I will ask my wife to pay the deposit tomorrow. I am attending a painting creation exchange meeting in Shanya these days."

Dong Huajun said: "I heard my brother say that Mr. Yin is an all-around genius."

After Yin Yuan made the call, he saw that the time was already past eleven o'clock. His wife must have taken her son to bed by then, so it would not affect her.

I didn’t expect how many timber business orders I received tonight.

He got up at six o'clock the next day.

Make it a habit to go for a run outside after getting up.

Went to the restaurant for breakfast and met Liu Weibiao, Liu Xianfu, and Pan Hong.

The three asked him where he was going to sketch today?

Yin Yuan said: "I went up the mountain to paint trees for two days in a row, and today is the same. This time I painted a group of paintings. Where are you?"

Liu Weibiao said: "How about we go up the mountain to see the mountain view today?"

Both Liu Xianfu said: "Okay, let's go together."

Liu Weibiao said: "I drove the car, Xiao Yin can take my car and go together."

Yin Yuan said: "I also drove here to Cuiwei Mountain. I can drive the car to the top of the mountain."

At this time, Ye Tianlin, Xia Feng and Huang Rong also went to the restaurant to have breakfast.

Yin Yuan said: "The three of them and I went to the mountains to sketch for two days."

After breakfast, he thought it was time for his wife to get up.

He called her and told him that Ling Zhenxing, Russell Su's husband in Xiangshan City, had ordered 60 cubic meters of Laotian Siamese rosewood old material, priced at 1.8 cubic meters. He would remit a deposit of 15 yuan for each truckload. [-] cubic meters of goods, he will pay upon delivery.

My cousin’s furniture factory ordered 100 cubic meters of Burmese red rose pears, priced at 4500 yuan per cubic meter. My cousin would transfer 45 yuan to his account.

Remember to pay a deposit to the foreign trade company for two orders.
