"Five-five hundred thousand dollars"
Yang Jing looked at Hayiti's weather-beaten face which slowly began to turn red, and he seemed to lack confidence when he said this. What was going on?
Is half a million dollars a lot?
Yang Jing shook his head subconsciously.
Seeing Yang Jing shaking his head, Hayiti's old face turned even redder. He had been holding back for a long time before he said this number. This is 500,000 US dollars! Not 500,000 national currency.
Although the official exchange rate of the U.S. dollar to the national currency is 1:72, everyone knows that the national currency cannot be exchanged with the U.S. dollar at such an exchange rate. In today's China, one U.S. dollar is enough to exchange for ten national currencies in private!
Five hundred thousand dollars can be exchanged for five million national currency!
This is a full ten times profit.
Even Hayiti himself felt that the number he quoted was too high. Of course, if the other party thinks it is too high, he can just reduce it by half, which is still a profit.
Hayiti looked at Yang Jing in silence and was about to lower the price, but he didn't expect Mr. Smith to speak.
"Haiti, the price you mentioned is too low. I think these materials are good materials and their prices should not be underestimated. So, I am ready to pay 5 million US dollars to purchase these materials. What do you think?"
"Ah???" Hayiti felt as if his chin no longer belonged to him.
He had expected a lot, but he never thought that the other party would despise his low price. But five million dollars, my God, such a pile of materials can be sold for five million dollars?
Oh my god, pie in the sky shouldn't be this big, right? This pie is bigger than ten capsules put together!
Hayiti swallowed hard, and asked in a low voice with trembling lips: "Mr. Smith, do you really want to buy these materials for 5 million US dollars?"
Yang Jing nodded, then glanced at Hayiti, "Why? Do you think this price is too low? If it is low..."
Before Yang Jing could finish his words, he was interrupted by Hayiti again, "Not low, not low! How can the price be low? Mr. Smith, if you really want these materials, five million US dollars, all these materials are yours!"
Because his heart was about to jump out of his throat with excitement, Hayiti's voice was so powerful that even the deputy factory director who was chatting with Wu Dawei and the two cadres from the Investment Promotion Bureau were shocked by the "five million US dollars".
What's going on?
The three of them looked over eagerly. They didn’t hear anything else clearly, but they heard the five million dollars clearly.
Hayiti, who was in his fifties, ran over like a child, skipping and jumping, and whispered a few words to those people. Suddenly, a burst of "What?" "What?" "How is this possible?" came out.
However, judging from their smiling faces that were as happy as sunflowers, this result was obviously an unexpected surprise.
As for Wu Dawei, he curled his lips in disdain. Having followed Peter Wu for more than a year, he knew that the big boss was picking up a bargain again, and it was a big bargain.
Wu Dawei had personally seen the warehouse-sized jadeite raw stones in Nanyun, among which there were some top-quality materials. In comparison, what was this half-warehouse of Hetian jade materials?
If I have to say something, it must be that the big boss liked these materials. And for something that the big boss liked, is five million dollars a lot? Not much! Really not much!
Originally, Yang Jing thought he had gotten a great deal by using five million US dollars to buy such a large amount of Hetian jade. He also thought that if Hayiti made things difficult, he would add another five million US dollars. Unexpectedly, the five million US dollars alone was enough to make those people's faces beam with joy.
With such a large amount of Hetian jade materials, let alone five million US dollars, even if it were twenty five million US dollars, it would definitely not be a loss.
Twenty years later, these materials will be top-notch materials. If you take out any piece and sell it for 18 million US dollars, there will be a lot of people scrambling to buy it!
I didn't expect that people nowadays are so honest that a mere five million dollars can completely break down their psychological defenses.
"Mr. Smith, do you still want this kind of material?" Zhao Mingyi, deputy director of the Hotan Regional Investment Promotion Bureau, asked with anticipation.
"Why? There is such material?"
"Yes, there are quite a few. We have seven state-owned jade carving factories in Hotan, and each of them has a lot of these unused materials. If you want..."
Yang Jing was delighted when he heard this. He waved his hand and said happily, "As long as the quality of those materials is similar to these materials, I will take them all! As for the price, how about we follow the price here?"
Yang Jing wanted to give more, but he knew that if he did so, it would not only have no good effect, but might also have a negative impact. In Xinjiang Province at this time, five million US dollars could really buy ten such half-warehouses of materials. If Yang Jing suddenly threw out thirty million or even fifty million US dollars, it would not be helping these jade carving factories, but harming them.
Being one step ahead is genius, but being many steps ahead is madness. This also applies to the business environment of this era.
Yang Jing doesn't want others to see him as a madman.
If they want to compensate, they can do so in other ways. For example, donating a few dormitory buildings to these factories would only cost a few million yuan, but it would definitely make them grateful.
