Chapter 369: Jinding Jewelry

Li Dong is an activist.

In addition, if you are idle, you are also idle. After seeing the villa, you are ready to go out and find a housekeeping company to help clean it.

As a result, before he even left the house, someone came from the property of Lanshan Manor.

There were two people here, a man and a woman. The man was in his early thirties, and the woman looked younger. She should have just started working.

The two first introduced themselves, and then the man handed over a business card to Li Dongdao: "Mr. Li, you will be the owner of the manor in the future. You can call this number if you have any needs. Longhua Property Management will do everything possible to meet them." Everything you need."

Li Dong was a little surprised and said, "Are you also directly under the Longhua Group?"

The man laughed and said, "Longhua Property is indeed directly under Longhua Group. Mr. Li may not know that the communities and real estate developed by Longhua Group in Pingchuan are all directly managed by Longhua Property."

Li Dong really didn't pay much attention to this point, secretly thinking that Longhua Group deserves to be the number one private company in Jiangbei.

In addition to real estate, Longhua Group's tentacles also extend to many industries.

The property company seems inconspicuous, but in fact it makes a lot of money, and most of the property companies are security guards. Longhua Group has developed a lot of real estate in Pingchuan over the years.

If you really want to pull out a team, the security guards under Longhua's banner may not be less than a few thousand people.

Of course, this is what Li Dong thinks about casually, unless Xu Shengzhe and his family are out of their minds, otherwise such a thing will definitely not be done.

Li Dong didn't think much about it, and sighed with emotion at the size of the Longhua Group, and then said: "Then I want to find a housekeeping company to help me clean, do you recommend one?"

The man laughed again after hearing the words: "Mr. Li, if you don't mind, our Longhua property has its own exclusive housekeeping company, and it's in the manor. What do you think?"

It's just cleaning up, and Li Dong doesn't care which family the other party belongs to. Hearing what the man said, he nodded and agreed.

I briefly stated my request, and asked the housekeeper to change the light bulb in the garage for me by the way.

These are all trivial matters, and the man in the property will answer them one by one.

After saying this, the man made a phone call back, chatted with Li Dong for a few more minutes, and finally arrived at the gate of the villa in the housekeeper's car.

The man led the other woman to say goodbye to Li Dong.

There is no need for Li Dong to worry about housekeeping. They are all professional, so there is no need for Li Dong to stare at them.

Because Li Dong asked for speed, there were quite a few housekeepers, four women and two men, a total of six people.

Li Dong told them some things to throw away, but he didn't care about the others, and he left the villa after saying these things.

As soon as Li Dong left, several housekeepers sighed with emotion in a low voice: "Although it's not the first time I've met, every time I see these rich people being so wasteful, I feel sorry for them."

A person next to him smiled and said: "I don't care if I have money, why do you feel bad about it? Later, these things will be sent to the property. Let's pick a few better ones and bring them back. These are all famous brands, some are new, and others don't need them. We can use it for many years when we go back.”

"That's true. The last time they cleaned Villa No. 6, their family threw away a lot of unnecessary things. Seeing me watching, their mistress finally picked out a few newer things for me. You don't know, I went back and asked my daughter to check it, good guy, one of the belts cost more than 30,000 yuan, and it was not used much. I went back and gave it to our husband, who has been swearing at the work for several days."

"Really? Why didn't you tell me about this, I said..."

...

Li Dong didn't hear the discussion of several housekeeping staff.

After leaving the villa, Li Dong didn't go out, and got into the van outside the villa.

Tan Yong and the others greeted each other one after another. Li Dong waved his hand to signal that everyone is welcome, and then said: "Next time I go to Lanshan, you don't follow me. The security of Lanshan Manor is good, and the security patrols all day long. It's useless."

In fact, Li Dong was afraid of attracting attention, and a van parked in the villa area was actually quite conspicuous.

Moreover, Lanshan is full of rich people, and Li Dong has never seen anyone bring bodyguards into the community, and he doesn't want to appear too maverick.

Seeing what Li Dong said, Tan Yong hesitated for a moment and said, "That's fine, we will wait for you, Mr. Li, outside the community from now on."

Li Donggang wanted to continue saying that there is no need to follow, but Tan Yong quickly said: "Mr. Li, this is what we eat. If you don't let us follow, wouldn't it be a blow to our jobs? Brothers are not easy, and you can't bear it." Bar?"

Li Dong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he didn't expect that Tan Yong, who looked like a gourd, could speak well now.

Seeing what Tan Yong said, Li Dong nodded and didn't refuse again, but after thinking about it, he said: "That's okay, you can change cars later, and don't drive a van in the future, the van is too conspicuous here, my one Isn’t a4 not used recently, you guys drive away later, and then let the company provide you with a car, two shifts.”

Tan Yong didn't refuse, he nodded and wrote it down.

Li Dong chatted with a few people for a while. There was not much space in the car, and Li Dong was a little panicked. He greeted everyone and got out of the car.

As a result, Li Dong was almost hit by an oncoming BMW as soon as he got out of the car. Fortunately, the other party was not driving fast, and Li Dong was not slow in his hands and feet.

The BMW car also stopped slowly, and Tan Yong and the others beside him reacted even more quickly, and they rushed out of the car quickly.

The three protected Li Dong in the center, while Tan Yong led another person in front of the BMW.

The door of the BMW was quickly opened, and a young woman in her twenties got out of the car in a hurry, glanced at Tan Yong and the others, and apologized to Li Dong in the middle of the crowd: "I'm really sorry, I didn't see it just now. Come to you, you came out too fast, I didn't react."

Li Dong waved his hand to get Tan Yong and the others out of the way, glanced at each other, nodded slightly and said: "It's okay, I don't care about it myself, I should be the one to say sorry."

He is not a messy person, he did not care just now, Tan Yong's car was parked on the side of the road, he did not look at the road when he got out of the car, and walked directly to the middle of the road.

Besides, both parties are fine, and the other party's attitude is also polite, so Li Dong will not be idle and find trouble for others.

One thing more is worse than one thing less, the other party seems to be a resident of Lanshan Manor, who knows what the reason is, there is no need to offend people for no reason.

The young woman looked at Li Dong one more time after hearing this, and then at the No. 16 villa next to her. There were still people cleaning the yard.

After a little thought, the woman guessed that Li Dong should be a new resident.

Then she glanced at Tan Yong and the others, and the woman smiled lightly at Li Dong: "It's good that you are fine, by the way, you are a new resident, right?"

Li Dong nodded.

The other party smiled again: "Then we will be neighbors from now on, I will live in No. 18, my name is Ji Lanxin, let's get to know each other."

As the other party stretched out his hand, Li Dong hurriedly reached out to shake her hand, and said with a smile, "My name is Li Dong, nice to meet you."

"It's a pleasure to meet you!"

While talking, Ji Lanxin thought of Li Dong's name.

Young man, rich, named Li Dong, actually Li Dong's identity is really easy to guess.

Pingchuan's circle of wealthy people is just that big, and Li Dong has been a man of the hour in Pingchuan for the past two years. Even if they haven't met him in person, there are very few people who haven't even heard of his name.

Li Dong, who was far away, confirmed Li Dong's identity in his heart, and Ji Lanxin was more polite.

The circle of the rich is also divided into classes. Ten million is considered rich, and one hundred million is also considered rich.

Li Dong's net worth has now been exposed to more than one billion yuan, even in Jiangbei, he is also a top rich man, and he is considered to be the top group.

Ji Lanxin was able to live in the single-family villa of Lanshan Manor, so she was naturally not short of money, but Ji's family was still much worse than Li Dong's.

Even if the two parties are not in the same industry, it would be nice to get acquainted with Li Dong. This is also a kind of accumulation of contacts.

Ji Lanxin was not in a hurry to leave, she stood there and chatted with Li Dong.

Li Dong happened to have to wait for the villa to be cleaned and went to the garage to have a look. It would be nice to have someone to chat with, not to mention that Ji Lanxin is still a rather seductive beauty.

When the two met for the first time, they naturally wouldn't talk about something too in-depth.

Chat about the weather, chat about politics, and briefly chat about business matters.

After some discussion, Li Dong also got to know Ji Lanxin a little better.

The Ji family was not unknown in Pingchuan, and Ji Lanxin didn't deliberately hide it, telling Li Dong that their family opened a jewelry store.

The owner of the jewelry store, surnamed Ji, Li Dong is not the stupefied young man who didn't know anything at the beginning. He often deals with people like Xu Shengzhe, and Li Dong still has some understanding of business people.

There is a Jinding jewelry store in Pingchuan, and the owner's surname is Ji.

The business of Jinding Jewelry Store is not small. Although it has not been able to open jewelry stores all over Jiangbei, there are six stores of Jinding Jewelry in Pingchuan alone.

In addition, Jinding Jewelry also has branches in several other big cities, and Jinding Jewelry probably has no less than fifteen stores.

A jewelry store is no different than an ordinary business, and it needs a lot of funds. Even if the Ji family's assets are not as good as Li Dong's, it should not be much less.

Ji Lanxin is the daughter of the owner of Jinding Jewelry and the only descendant of the Ji family.

The reason why Li Dong knew about the Ji family was also related to this point. Last time Xu Shengzhe joked with Li Dong that Pingchuan had several noble daughters, and if he married one at random, he would be prosperous.

Ji Lanxin is one of them, because she is the sole heir of Jinding Jewelry.

Once Ji Lanxin's father passed away, Jinding Jewelry would definitely fall into Ji Lanxin's hands. Whoever married Ji Lanxin would not have to struggle for the rest of their lives.

Of course, this was just a joke between Xu Shengzhe and Li Dong.

As far as the two of them were concerned, although the Ji family had a lot of property, they would not covet it. If they had the time to think about how to marry Ji Lanxin, they might have earned back a golden tripod jewellery.

Li Dong and Ji Lanxin chatted for about 20 minutes, Ji Lanxin looked at the time and smiled at Li Dong: "Mr. Li, you haven't cleaned your place yet, why don't you come and sit with me?"

Li Dong hurriedly said: "No, Miss Ji, you don't have to be polite. I'm going to leave after a while, and I'll officially move here later, and then I'll bother Miss Ji."

Ji Lanxin nodded and was not polite.

When meeting for the first time, it is enough to get acquainted with each other, too close will make people wary.

After greeting Li Dong, Ji Lanxin got into her BMW and entered a villa not far away.

Li Dong glanced at it, but didn't pay too much attention.

There are many rich people in Lanshan Manor. Today I met Ji Lanxin, and maybe I will meet some richer people next time.

Li Dong doesn't think he is the richest here. Pingchuan is the capital of Jiangbei Province, and Lanshan Manor is one of the top high-end communities in Pingchuan. It's not surprising that someone here is richer than Li Dong.

...

Villa 18.

Ji Lanxin entered the house, and the owner of Jinding Jewelry, Ji Lanxin's father, Ji Yuanzhong, was feeding the goldfish.

Hearing the nanny greeting his daughter, Ji Yuanzhong turned around and said, "I'm back, why are you back so early today?"

Ji Lanxin threw the satchel on the sofa, took off her shoes and leaned back on the sofa, took a breath and said, "Don't mention it, I'm so annoying recently. The price of gold keeps falling, Dad, we invested 30 million yuan last month." The goods, how long has it been, it has fallen by 20%, and it has lost more than 6 million yuan, are you in no hurry?"

Since the price of gold climbed to a 26-year high on May 12, the price of gold has fallen sharply in the following period.

In just over half a month, the price of gold has fallen by nearly 20%.

Jinding jewelry business is not small, and gold is the most popular jewelry in China. Last month, Jinding jewelry bought 30 million goods when the price of gold was close to its peak.

But who knew that before they shipped the goods, the international gold price began to drop, and the drop was out of control.

And looking at the momentum, it seems that there is still a crisis of falling below the bottom line. Ji Lanxin is dying of anxiety in the past half a month. Who knows that her father still has time to feed the fish.

Ji Yuanzhong said calmly: "Ups and downs are the normal state of the market, so why worry? When the price of gold falls, we will sell less gold utensils. Gold is a hard currency, and it will rise sooner or later. It has been thousands of years, and I haven't heard of it yet." You are still too young to say that gold was thrown at your hands, look at the big jewelers in the country, how many of them are in a hurry?"

Ji Lanxin was right to think about it, but she still said: "But our business has been affected a lot recently. If the gold shipments decrease, the business impact will be even greater. Moreover, many people know that the price of gold has fallen, and everyone is waiting to fall below the bottom line. , There are fewer people buying jewelry at this stage, and the performance of several of our stores has dropped by at least 30% this month."

Speaking of this, Ji Yuanzhong took it seriously.

I'm not afraid of the price of gold falling, just hoarding goods, but if the business is less, the impact will be greater, and it will drop by 30% all at once.

After thinking for a while, Ji Yuanzhong said: "It really doesn't work, let's do a few more events in June."

Ji Lanxin frowned and said: "Activities are not a long-term solution. I think the main reason is that we have fewer channels. The business has declined in the past few years. We have to develop new channels."

"New channel? Do you want to open a branch?"

Ji Yuanzhong asked, in fact, he has not been in charge of things in the past few years, but has focused on nurturing his daughter to take over his class.

Especially since the beginning of this year, Ji Yuanzhong has been in a semi-retired state, and Ji Lanxin is responsible for all the big and small matters of Jinding Jewelry.
