Tang Songyuan yelled, moved out of the way and made a sign of invitation, and said:
"Ms. Qiu, please sit inside. It's outrageous to have the door blocked. If word gets out, people think that we, Hex Jade Industry, don't have a good hospitality attitude."
Entering the office shared by Tang Songyuan and Li Yangqiu, Qiu Yingxue sat down opposite Tang Songyuan.
Li Yangqiu turned into a secretary and served tea and water to the two of them. However, before leaving the house, he did not forget to wink at Tang, Song and Yuan.
Tang Songyuan pretended not to see it, and said to Qiu Yingxue: "I would like to ask, does Miss Qiu need anything when she comes today?"
Qiu Yingxue snorted and said, "You snatched the piece of material I liked at the public sale... I came here to see how you were cutting it."
Just for this?
Not so!
Tang Songyuan chuckled and said, "Sorry, Miss Qiu, that piece of material is not included in our cutting plan for the time being."
"Besides, if Miss Qiu values that piece of material so much, why didn't she pay more to grab it? As far as I know, the strength of the Qiu family cannot be underestimated."
Qiu Yingxue was speechless for a moment and hesitated for a long time before saying: "The time was too tight at the time, so I didn't understand it very well, so I couldn't make up my mind."
Tang Songyuan smiled again and said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple..."
Qiu Yingxue looked at Tang Songyuan with fixed eyes. Seeing that the other party's smile was still there, but also like a deflated rubber ball, she said dejectedly:
"Okay, I admit, I really want to see what happens after the piece of material is cut, to prove the stone gambling skills I have learned."
In the previous stone gambling appreciation meetings in the Magic City, Qiu Yingxue had a special appraiser to help her before participating in the stone gambling.
Later, in Zhou Hongyang's stone betting agency, it was also the stone betting appraiser who gave her a reference.
Tang Songyuan asked in confusion: "Don't you always ask appraisers for help? Why do you have to study all this by yourself?"
"It's better to ask for yourself than to ask for help from others!" Qiu Yingxue pursed her lips and said, "Do you think everyone is like you and can learn from an industry leader like Master Ni?"
Tang Songyuan felt even more confused, and asked again: "My master accepted me as a disciple, and he didn't ask for any harsh conditions... and he took the initiative to ask for it at the time."
"How is that possible?" Qiu Yingxue was shocked and said with her mouth wide open: "Do you know that my father personally brought my brother to visit me with gifts?"
"But no matter how hard my father tried to persuade me, Master Ni never let go..."
No, Li Yangqiu also said that Ni Dehong once wanted to accept him as his disciple, but this guy didn't agree.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this issue!" Tang Songyuan waved his hand and said: "Miss Qiu, regarding that piece of oily material, I have no plans to cut it for the time being."
"If one day I think of having a surgery, I will inform Ms. Qiu, okay?"
Qiu Yingxue asked, "Why don't you rush to do it in the near future? Is there any explanation in this?"
What a rich lady, why are you so stubborn in doing things?
Tang Songyuan said perfunctorily: "Because our workers can't cut it, so Miss Qiu is satisfied."
Qiu Yingxue glanced thoughtfully at the production workshop outside the door and said, "I just took a quick look and it seems that there are no finished product processing stations in Boss Tang's workshop."
"Do you only cut stones and not make finished products?"
Tang Songyuan coughed slightly and said: "There are no plans to make finished products for the time being. We will consider these when the scale expands in the future."
Qiu Yingxue said: "Well, let's do this. Boss Tang, you can leave the semi-finished products in your factory to me. I will estimate the price for you based on the quality of your goods and the market price."
"Just like our previous cooperation with Wu Huan..."
Tang Songyuan's eyes lit up, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he said, "We now have a cooperative downstream manufacturer, is Miss Qiu planning to poach them?"
Qiu Yingxue did not see the change in his expression and said bluntly: "I know Master Suiyuzhaihe Taihe, but you also need to know one thing."
“The current sales volume of physical stores is simply incomparable to that of our e-commerce platform.”
"And now many physical stores are coming to us, asking to use our channels to help them open up sales..."
“Sometimes it even accounts for more than half of our shipment ratio!”
The rise of e-commerce platforms has indeed had a great impact on physical stores. The traditional market is crumbling in the face of huge Internet traffic.
Tang Songyuan twitched the corners of his lips, sighed again, and said, "Miss Qiu, I respect you. From a business perspective, I really hope to have one more channel to digest products."
"But to be honest, I don't agree with the cooperation you proposed."
"Ah? Why," Qiu Yingxue said with a puzzled look on her face: "We have professional appraisers, and we will definitely give you the most cutting-edge price in the market for the finished products produced in your factory."
Tang Songyuan shook his head and said, "It's not because of this."
Qiu Yingxue stared with big eyes and said in a flash: "Can I know the reason?"
Tang Songyuan looked at her beautiful face with clear eyes and said calmly:
"From the moment you walked in, you wanted to watch me cut stones and buy my semi-finished products. It all showed a wishful thinking that was like giving away."
"It was the same even in the Magic City. If you like the stone I cut, I must sell it to you?"
"You have a wide and powerful market, but we also have a good source of goods, so I think this is not the attitude that a normal collaborator should have."
Qiu Yingxue was stunned and didn't speak for a long time, and Tang Songyuan didn't bother her either.
About three or four minutes later, Qiu Yingxue spoke again: "You just said that you have a good source of goods."
Tang Songyuan nodded naturally and confidently: "Yes, my master is semi-reclusive, but I still have to hang out in the market."
"Okay!" Qiu Yingxue stood up, bowed slightly towards Tang Songyuan and said:
"I apologize to you for my previous arrogant attitude. You are right. Only win-win cooperation can maintain long-term cooperation."
"Can we talk about cooperation now?"
Tang Songyuan showed a sincere smile on his face and said: "Of course!"
After saying that, he shouted to Li Yangqiu who was hiding next door: "Manager Li, go get the material that Lao Ma just cut out!"
