The news also said that a buyer who liked this "old monk" very much but failed to get his wish asked the seller when there would be another exquisite piece of such fine quality and carving.
The seller said: He has a lot of jade materials in his hand, but it just takes time and good craftsmen to carefully design and polish them.
This seller became famous instantly, but kept a low profile. He refused to appear in front of the public or leave his name. He only asked interested buyers to contact him privately.
Li Wenjun laughed out loud: Tao Guangming must have spent a lot of money to buy the news agency. Otherwise, why would the newspaper cooperate with him like this? It is obviously an advertisement but it is placed in a prominent position in social news.
Moreover, he had to sigh once again: Tao Guangming was really good at doing business. Not only did he sell the "old monk" so quickly, he also paid a hundred yuan more than he asked.
Li Wenyong clicked his tongue and shook his head and sighed: "One thousand two hundred and eighty-eight yuan, a stone. Who is so stupid."
Li Wenjun smiled: "Jewelry and jade are all about taste. When people's wealth reaches a certain level, they are not sensitive to price and only pay attention to whether they like it or not. There is a saying that a thousand dollars can't buy what I like. That's pretty much it. mean."
He was secretly amused: What if he told Li Wenyong that the raw material for the jade carving of the old monk was the same one that was dug out of the sand pile earlier. Will Li Wenyong faint from the stimulation?
One thousand, two hundred and eighty-eight, to Li Wenjun was just a drop in the bucket, but to Li Wenyong it was an astronomical figure. After all, Li Wenyong's current salary is only thirty yuan a month, one thousand two hundred and eighty-eight dollars. He has to work hard for three or four years without eating or drinking.

Li Wenjun calculated the time. If Tao Guangming took the plane back to the provincial capital that evening, he should be able to return to the county seat at noon today.
This guy will definitely come to him as soon as he comes back.
Sure enough, Tao Guangming called in the afternoon: "Hey, I'm here to collect the money."
Li Wenjun smiled: "Haha, have you tasted the sweetness?"
Tao Guangming shouted: "What are you talking about? It's not because of my wisdom, superb eloquence, and extraordinary personal charm that I can sell it at such a good price."
Li Wenjun said hurriedly: "Stop, stop, stop. Stop bragging, or you may blow off the roof of your small office in the comprehensive market. Let's get down to business, has a customer already booked the rest?"
Tao Guangming answered honestly: "Yes, but the price has not been negotiated yet. The other party said that the final decision can only be made after seeing the finished product and the price I quoted. So I urge you to collect the money. After you collect the money, I can start work." Live and make the others as soon as possible.”
Li Wenjun couldn't help but laugh: "Don't panic, I have to go to Sister Hui to collect money."
Tao Guangming's voice was full of contempt: "I look down on people like you. You make tens of thousands every day, but you still have to make a few cents. Are you wasting your time and effort?"
"That's the money my dad earned, and every dollar counts." Li Wenjun interrupted his chatter, "By the way, let me tell you, that Feng Shui fish is useful, right?"
Tao Guangming said vaguely: "Not bad. Not bad."
Li Wenjun deliberately said: "If it doesn't work, I'll give you the two dollars, and you return it to me? I'll fool others. Anyway, it will definitely be sold."
Tao Guangming was anxious: "Why are you like this? Can you still get back what you sold?"
Li Wenjun couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I can give you a stone. Why would I want it back?"
Tao Guangming said angrily: "You are so bad, you are so bad. You are the worst in the world. You are full of bad things."
Seeing that he was really angry, Li Wenjun comforted him: "It's okay. I'll bring two more pieces of jade to comfort you this afternoon."
Tao Guangming turned from anger to joy: "Eh? Really, that's great."

Li Wenjun went to Tao Guanghui to settle a profit. After adding the 1,188 given by Tao Guanghui, there would be almost another two thousand yuan.
From now on, the patent royalties paid by other electronic equipment manufacturers will also be several thousand every month; there will also be commissions from garment factories.
Now, the advertising fees that provided him with his first pot of gold seem insignificant in comparison.
The money will depreciate if it is piled in the safe. You need to think of some investment channels.
Well, before that, let’s do some charity first.
Li Wenjun asked Tao Guanghui: "Sister Hui, can you contact the people in the bookstore?"
Tao Guanghui thought for a while: "Okay, you want it from the city or the province."
Li Wenjun said: "The one from Xinhua Bookstore in the provincial capital is of course the best."
Tao Guanghui: "No problem. Do you want to buy books? Or are you planning to do business in this area?"
Li Wenjun: "I want to buy some popular science books, Xinhua dictionaries, English dictionaries and some biochemical physics experimental equipment for my children's schools, middle schools in the county and some primary schools in surrounding villages and towns."
Tao Guanghui: "I can get experimental equipment. But microscopes and the like are quite expensive. Each one costs five or six yuan. How many do you want?"
"Get me ten first." Li Wenjun took 10 neat and brand-new big cards from the money he just got and put them on the table. "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Hui."
Tao Guanghui took the money and put it in the drawer: "Wen Jun is really an ambitious and responsible person. When he makes money, he doesn't squander or show off like other people do, but he thinks about helping others. No wonder my father always encourages Guangming to follow more You come and go.”
Li Wenjun smiled: "The leader promoted me. I am just an ordinary young man with good luck."
If he hadn't been so lucky that he could even be reborn, and had accumulated so much social and technical experience, no matter how capable he was, he wouldn't have been able to do so smoothly. He would still be struggling in the quagmire, and he wouldn't be able to see it at all. To his glorious self decades later.
Tao Guanghui: "Okay, I won't say much more about praise. Since it is a good deed, I will also contribute and use all the resources I can use to try to find everything you want. Please help me make a list. So that someone can find him."
Li Wenjun made two lists, one for books and one for experimental instruments, before bidding farewell to Tao Guanghui and looking for Tao Guangming.

Tao Guangming had been waiting impatiently in the office, so he came out to look outside. As soon as he saw Li Wenjun, he said, "Why do you write ink? Do you have so much to say to my sister?"
Li Wenjun shook his head: "Tsk, tsk, as long as you are patient, don't be too embarrassed when waiting for Captain Ji to put on makeup."
Tao Guangming's cheeks immediately showed two blushes, and he said shyly: "If you are waiting for Captain Ji to put on makeup, I will wait as long as you want."
Li Wenjun sneered: "Haha, you are just a guy who values sex over friends. Do you still want that jade material?"
Tao Guangming snorted: "If it weren't for the jade material, I wouldn't be too lazy to wait for you. It would make me act like a resentful woman all day long."
Li Wenjun couldn't help but laugh out loud: "You still know that you look like a resentful woman."
Tao Guangming stared at him.
Seeing that he was really annoyed, Li Wenjun hurriedly said: "No matter how angry you are, I will make sure you smile when you see the jade material I brought this time."
