Chapter 1416: A Thousand-Dollar White Fox Fur Coat Worth a Million-Dollar White Sable Fur Coat

After looking at the squirrel skin, Wen Hongchang took the yellow leaf, unfolded it and looked at it, then spread the skin on his legs and touched it against the fur.

After touching it, Wen Hongchang looked up and smiled: "They are all yellow skins, but the further north you go, the better the quality of the fur."

The squirrels in Changbai Mountain are different from those in Yanshan Mountain Range, and sable is a species unique to Changbai Mountain. But weasels are the same everywhere.

It's just that the further north you go, the colder it is, and the thicker the fur of weasels in the colder places, otherwise it will not be enough to keep out the cold.

Folding the yellow leaf and putting it aside, Wen Hongchang unfolded the big skin again.

Wen Hongchang only touched it and sighed: "It's either expensive or good fur!"

You get what you pay for.

The yellow leaf and gray skin are all bought for dozens of yuan, while the big skin is thousands of yuan, so there is a reason why it is expensive.

Just put the sable fur on your eyes, even the needle hair will not prick your eyes.

"Dad." Zhao Jinhui, who was sitting opposite and watching the fun, asked Zhao Weipeng curiously, "What kind of skins are these?"

"I don't know either." Zhao Weipeng raised his hand and pointed at Zhao Jun, saying, "Ask your brother."

Zhao Jinhui looked at Zhao Jun, who pointed at them one by one and said to Zhao Jinhui, "The yellow one is the skin of the weasel, we call it yellow leaves; the gray one is the squirrel skin, we call it gray skin; the one in Wen Shushou is the sable skin, we call it big skin."

"Sable skin?" Zhao Jinhui asked puzzledly, "Why isn't it purple?"

When Zhao Jinhui asked this question, even Wen Hongchang, a fur merchant, was stunned.

Yes, the sable skin in front of everyone now is black-brown, with some white needle hairs in the middle of the purple.

It has nothing to do with purple.

The sable skin in Changbai Mountain is like this, unlike those foreign minks, which have all kinds of colors.

What people see is black-brown or yellow-brown, with some white needle hairs in the middle, and these colors have nothing to do with purple.

Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this, and took the big skin that Wen Hongchang had placed on the coffee table.

I have to say that the quality of the big skin's fur is really good. In the Northeast dialect, it is called smooth and shiny.

Zhao Jun held the big skin with both hands, stood up and went to the south window. With the sunlight shining in from the south window, the big skin's fur was shining like water waves.

"The peeled skin doesn't have that effect." Zhao Jun smiled and said, "If it's alive, the sun shines on it, you look at it from a distance, it's purple."

"Ah..." Zhao Jinhui was skeptical, and Wen Hongchang on the side smiled and said, "The name passed down by the older generation will definitely not be wrong."

Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this, and sat back on the sofa.

At this time, Wen Hongchang looked at Zhao Jun and asked, "Young man, how many of these mink skins did you bring?"

"Thirty-six." Zhao Jun said a number, and Wen Hongchang nodded slightly after hearing it, saying, "I want all of them."

Zhao Jun was slightly startled, but remembered that Zhao Jinhui said that this man was quite capable, and a large skin worth more than 30,000 yuan should not be a problem for him.

At this time, Wen Hongchang pointed to the other two items on the coffee table and asked, "What about the yellow skin and squirrel skin?"

"The squirrel skin is 827." Zhao Jun had done business in his previous life, and he was still young, so he would definitely remember a few numbers.

He continued to count to Wen Hongchang and said, "The weasel skin is 1,485."

Hearing this number, Wen Hongchang frowned slightly. These things add up to more than 100,000.

But Wen Hongchang thought for only two seconds before making a decision and said to Zhao Jun: "I didn't expect you to bring so many skins. I didn't bring so much money today. You wait for me to go back today or tomorrow... at the latest the morning of the day after tomorrow, I will send you the money."

After saying this, Wen Hongchang pointed to the three kinds of skins on the table and said: "As long as your skins are of this quality, I will buy them all."

"Okay." Zhao Jun nodded and smiled: "Don't worry about this. When we collect skins, we are all carefully selected."

Wen Hongchang nodded slightly, then took out two stacks of big unity from his pocket, pinched them in his hand and said to Zhao Jun: "I'll give you two thousand yuan, this is the deposit."

"No, no." Zhao Jun hurriedly pushed the money back and said: "Uncle Wen, we have my brother Jinhui for this, we don't need anything. When you come again, just give me a bunch of money."

Hearing what Zhao Jun said, Zhao Jinhui smiled on his fat face, and the little fat man felt that he had face.

"Okay." Wen Hongchang didn't refuse Zhao Jun. He put the money in his pocket and said, "Then wait until I come again."

More than two thousand pieces of skin, the cheapest ones are twenty or thirty yuan, and they must not be accepted casually.

Next time Wen Hongchang comes, he will not only bring money, but also bring his men to inspect the goods. Today, I just want to settle this deal first, so that this big business will not be snatched by other colleagues.

"That... Uncle Wen." Zhao Jun smiled at Wen Hongchang and said, "What price do we charge for these skins now?"

Wen Hongchang, the old guy, hummed and hummed for a long time, but didn't say how much he would give Zhao Jun.

He just said that he wanted them all, but if the price was not right, Zhao Jun really wouldn't sell them to him.

After hearing Zhao Jun talk about the price, Wen Hongchang took out a piece of paper from his pocket, opened it, and handed it to Zhao Jun across the coffee table.

Zhao Jun took it and looked at it, and his eyes lit up immediately.

It says: Pine 46, 47, Yellow 31.5, 41, Marten 1080-1250, White Fox 70.

Seeing the price list above, Zhao Jun was a little excited. If they sold it according to the above price, then for every gray skin sold, the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce could make a profit of four yuan. And for every yellow leaf sold, they could make a profit of three yuan.

As for the big skin, that thing is originally expensive. The Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce can earn eighty to one hundred yuan for every big skin sold.

More than thirty big skins, another three thousand yuan.

In other words, they can earn more than ten thousand yuan just by selling skins.

A huge profit!

No wonder Zheng Xuekun took his son to the Northeast again and again, this is really making money!

At this time, Li Baoyu leaned his head towards Zhao Jun, he was curious about what price Wen Hongchang could give.

But noticing his action, Zhao Jun folded the paper and stretched out his arm to return it to Wen Hongchang.

Zhao Jun didn't want to hide it from Li Baoyu, but he was afraid that Li Baoyu would react too strongly after seeing the price. In that case, it would not be good for making this deal.

When Wen Hongchang took the quotation sheet, Zhao Jun asked, "Uncle Wen, did you set this price?"

Although according to this price, you can make a lot of money. But in business, everyone wants to make more money. It's not cheating, so just talk about it.

"This is not set by me." Wen Hongchang smiled and said, "Like squirrel skin, it is based on the export price. It doesn't say that the price changes every day, but it changes every three or five days, with some rising and some falling. The weasel skin and sable skin are also based on the market price."

As he said, Wen Hongchang slightly raised the paper in his hand and said, "Today, the entire Xiji is priced at this price. No matter who it is, it can't be more or less. I won't fool you, you can ask around."

"Ah..." After hearing what Wen Hongchang said, Zhao Jun knew that this was the case.

"Uncle Wen, what's the matter with the fox skin?" Zhao Jun asked, "Why do you only accept white fox skin? Why not gray and red ones?"

Zhao Jun never expected that the fox skin that the supply and marketing cooperative and state-owned stores in his hometown would not accept was already accepted in Xiji, and the price was not low.

You know, the Zhaojia Chamber of Commerce accepts fox skins from Xishantun, and a white fox skin is only ten yuan. It can be sold here for seventy, and the profit is almost catching up with the big skin.

What Zhao Jun doesn't understand is why only white ones are accepted, and gray, yellow, and red ones are not accepted?

If they accept all, he will be rich!

"Because the white one is high-end." Wen Hongchang smiled and said, "Didn't they perform "Dream of Red Mansions" in the first few years?"

Hearing Hongchang's words, Li Baoyu instantly became interested. Their Li family "has been a family of scholars for generations", and everyone in their family has their favorite books.

For example, Li Baoyu likes to read "Water Margin". And Li Dayong's favorite book is "Dream of Red Mansions". I like it so much that even the names of Li Baoyu's three siblings are from "Dream of Red Mansions".

At this time, Wen Hongchang continued: "I like reading that book very much. I remember what Lin Daiyu wore in it?"

Wen Hongchang was eloquent. With just a few simple words, he attracted everyone's attention. Everyone listened to Wen Hongchang as if they were listening to a story. "It is said that Lin Daiyu wore a pair of red fragrant sheepskin boots with gold and cloud patterns, and a crane cloak with a red feather gauze and a white fox face."

Hearing his words, everyone felt a sense of awe.

Wen Hongchang smiled, and then said: "This is equivalent to Mengchangjun's white fox fur."

"What is white fox fur?" Wen Hongchang suddenly asked a question, and then answered himself: "It is said in the "Historical Records" that white fox fur is worth a thousand gold, unparalleled in the world."

As he said, Wen Hongchang put the quotation sheet into his pocket and said: "We in Xiji have only started to collect white fox fur in the past two days. I didn't expect that I could directly offer such a high price."

"Fox fur is warm to make coats." Zhao Weipeng said this, and Wen Hongchang smiled and said: "Of course it is warm, and the money is good."

"Hey, Uncle Wen." At this time, Zhao Jun picked up the big fur on the coffee table and said to Wen Hongchang: "There are also white furs."

"Ouch!" Wen Hongchang, who had just received the cigarette from Zhao Weipeng, exclaimed, "That's more valuable!"

While speaking, Wen Hongchang shook his head slowly and said, "The mink fur outside doesn't count. The mink fur from your Changbai Mountain, if it comes out white, is a treasure! Not to mention a thousand gold, it's worth ten thousand gold!"

"Oh..." Zhao Jun squinted his eyes twice and said, "One gram of gold is fifty or sixty, how much is ten thousand gold? Let's say ten thousand grams, that's fifty or sixty thousand."

"Fifty or sixty thousand?" Wen Hongchang smiled and said, "You can't even see fifty or sixty thousand!"

Wen Hongchang didn't take Zhao Jun's words to heart, he thought it was just a casual chat.

Since it's a chat, just have fun.

But at this moment, Zhao Jun asked Wen Hongchang again: "Uncle Wen, if I have two white mink furs, can I sell them for 120,000?"

"How can that be possible?" Wen Hongchang laughed: "People say that white fox fur is worth a thousand gold, and white mink fur is worth ten thousand gold. If you have a fur coat made of white mink, you can sell it for 120,000 without any problem. You only have two, then you can't sell it."

At the end, Wen Hongchang shook his head repeatedly, indicating that it was impossible.

"Uncle Wen, then..." Zhao Jun asked again: "If you have two, how much can you sell it for?"

Wen Hongchang was stunned, staring at Zhao Jun's eyes and asked: "Do you have it?"

Zhao Jun smiled, turned his head to look at Li Baoyu, Zhao Jun raised his chin, and Li Baoyu hurriedly got up and walked towards the room where they slept yesterday.

Soon, Li Baoyu came back with three cloth bags. Three cloth bags, two short and one long.

Li Baoyu returned and handed three cloth bags into Zhao Jun's hands.

Zhao Jun took the longest cloth bag first, placed it on the coffee table and slowly unfolded it.

Seeing Zhao Jun's actions, everyone hurriedly moved the tea jars and fruit plates to make room for Zhao Jun.

When Zhao Jun opened the cloth bag, Wen Hongchang looked disappointed and said, "Isn't this lynx skin?"

"Yes!" Zhao Jun said, "We call this a tiger cub."

"In the past half month, the price of lynx skin has dropped." Wen Hongchang said this first, then picked up the lynx skin. After checking it carefully repeatedly, Wen Hongchang put the lynx skin down and said to Zhao Jun: "Three thousand."

"Ah?" Zhao Jun was shocked and said, "We paid three thousand seventy-eight dollars before we went down the mountain to sell the supply and marketing cooperative."

"It can't be sold now." Wen Hongchang said, "If you don't believe me, take it back and ask."

"Ah, that's okay." Zhao Jun didn't say sell it or not sell it. He waved his hand and Li Baoyu and Jie Chen stood up and put away the lynx skin.

At this time, Zhao Jun was a little disappointed. He was also thinking that he could make a fortune from the lynx skin, but he almost lost it.

He bought this lynx skin from Xu Changlin for three thousand. If he sold it for three thousand, he wouldn't make a penny.

Wen Hongchang didn't seem to be interested in lynx skin either. He looked at the two cloth bags in Zhao Jun's arms and asked, "What are those two bags you have?"

Zhao Jun picked up a cloth bag and opened it, revealing the albino sable fur roll inside.

Wen Hongchang's expression changed drastically and he watched nervously as Zhao Jun unfolded the leather.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on that special leather.

"Can I get started?" Wen Hongchang asked. Zhao Jun nodded in agreement, and then he started to pack the second cloth bag.

Wen Hongchang held up the albino sable skin and carefully touched the hair on it.

Then he examined it carefully, patiently and carefully. When he saw the second piece of leather like this, Wen Hongchang was not as surprised as before and just asked Zhao Jun: "Do you really have two of them?"

"Yes." Zhao Jun smiled and asked, "Uncle Wen, what price can you give for these two big skins?"

"Two pieces!" Wen Hongchang emphasized the number, then thought about it in his mind and said, "Ten thousand."

When saying this, Wen Hongchang stared closely into Zhao Jun's eyes. Eyes are the windows to the human soul. Some rich people can express their emotions and anger without expressing their emotions, but few can deceive others with their eyes.

Before seeing the white mink fur, although Wen Hongchang was negotiating business with Zhao Jun, he acted calmly and did not resort to these methods.

But at this time, Wen Hongchang unknowingly used his method of negotiating business with others.

If Wen Hongchang observed Li Baoyu and Jie Chen at this time, he would see the surprise on their faces.

It can be heard that Hongchang was looking at Zhao Jun, and all he saw in Zhao Jun's eyes at this time was disappointment.

"No, Uncle Wen?" Zhao Jun said, "Don't you think it costs over one hundred thousand to make a piece of clothing? Then don't these two pieces of leather cost thirty or forty thousand?"

Wen Hongchang: "..."
