Chen Tianchui's face was filled with excitement: "Brother Feng, you're here! I've been looking forward to the stars and the moon, just hoping that the sun will come out from the deep mountains..."
"Stop talking nonsense, this business is booming!"
"Hey, Brother Feng, isn't this all thanks to reform and opening up?"
This guy's mouth has improved!
Because there were many people in the store, Wan Feng didn't say anything, but visited Chen Tianchui's store.
The design of the store is very interesting. There is no counter, but an iron railing is erected one and a half meters away from the inner wall, making it look like a prison.
The wall behind the railing is made like a staircase, with five steps, and each step is filled with pots of Clivia.
Wan Feng counted them and found that there were about ten pots of flowers on each step. The highest step had only three pots of flowers, one Anshan orchid and two monk orchids.
In other words, Chen Tianchui now has forty-three pots of flowers.
The prices of these Clivias range from two thousand to six or seven thousand. The three pots of Clivia on the top are estimated to be worth more than ten thousand yuan according to current estimates.
Wan Feng made a preliminary calculation and found that the cost of these flowers was around 200,000 yuan, and if sold at the market price, they would be worth about 400,000 to 500,000 yuan.
In just three months since I left, this guy has grown a business of hundreds of thousands with the 8,000 yuan I gave him as capital.
In addition to his own talent, the madness of the Clivia market is also evident.
Chen Tianchui has changed from the scoundrel look he had when he robbed Wan Feng with a match gun. Now he is dressed in a suit and looks like a successful man.
The store also hired two flashy ladies who glared at customers.
Wan Feng looked at the time. It was three o'clock in the afternoon. He didn't know what time these flower shops would be open in the evening.
"Are you open until dark?"
Chen Tianchui shook his head: "The store usually closes at four or five o'clock. It's not safe to be closed at night. Wait a little longer and I'll close the store. Let's have a good time together, brothers."
"Did your father go to Bei Liao?"
"I left as soon as the fifteenth day of the lunar month came. I came back last month and saw that I was still fiddling with the Clivia. I had a fight with him, and then he left again and never came back."
Wan Feng nodded. It seemed that Chen Dao still remembered his words of advice.
He went to Jiang Wei and came back to see his son still fiddling with the Clivia, so he probably asked Chen Tianchui to stop. Chen Tianchui refused, and the father and son started arguing.
In a fit of anger, Chen Dao went to Jiangwei again, probably not planning to come back.
In a blink of an eye, it was already past four o'clock and Chen Tianchui began to close the shop. During this time, Chen Tianchui sold another pot of flowers, looking very proud.
But at the same time, he also bought two pots of flowers, spending about 7,000 yuan.
After closing the shop door and pulling the two iron railing security doors inside and outside, Chen Tianchui brought Wan Feng to the most prosperous Huaguan Hotel nearby.
Two people don't need many dishes, so Chen Tianchui ordered four dishes: Beijing-style shredded pork with soy sauce, steamed pork elbow, spicy river crucian carp, and white-cut goose meat.
The drink was draft beer at 20 cents a glass.
Chen Tianchui's father is a wine lover, but Chen Tianchui is not even a wine lover. His alcohol tolerance is similar to Wan Feng's, so the two of them stay away from white wine and only drink beer.
"Brother Feng, come on, we haven't seen each other for several months, let's make one first!"
Chen Tianchui raised his glass, Wan Feng raised his glass, and they clinked glasses and drank it all in one gulp.
"Eat some food, eat some food. This restaurant makes really good white-cut goose. They're the best goose in this area. Come and try it."
Wan Feng doesn't really know much about goose meat and has never thought it tastes good.
He picked up a piece of goose meat and put it in his mouth. It tasted okay.
After a glass of wine and a piece of goose, Wan Feng said, "Hammer, have you seen Yang Jianguo and the others recently?"
"They were here dealing with Clivia a few days ago. I think they left and went home around May Day. I haven't seen the three of them since then."
Very good, very good. Yang Jianguo and the other two still listened to what he said. Wan Feng had told them to leave the Clivia market by the end of April, and these people obviously remembered it.
Such an obedient person is the one Wan Feng can rely on, but the guy in front of him turned a deaf ear to his words.
"You've earned hundreds of thousands now, right?"
"Hehe, thanks to you, Brother Feng, I won't hide it anymore. It's probably over 300,000."
The flowers in Chen Tianchui's shop are worth around 300,000 yuan now. If what Chen Tianchui said is true, then all his assets must be invested in this flower shop.
"Is it all on your shop?"
"Of course. If I don't put the money into the flower shop, should I just put it in the bank and deposit it at interest?"
Wan Feng sighed. "Hammer, you really didn't take my words seriously. How come you're still hanging around in the Clivia market, and your stall is so big? What did I tell you back then? Have you forgotten everything I said?"
"I haven't forgotten. I really haven't forgotten."
"Haha, there's no difference between not forgetting and not taking it seriously and forgetting."
"Brother Feng, I remember your words clearly, but look at the Clivia market right now, isn't it still booming? The daily turnover in this market is over a million."
"Listen to me, starting tomorrow, get rid of all the Clivia you have. Save your capital and clear it out quickly. Try to get rid of all the Clivia you have before next month."
"How can I do that! The Clivia market is so good right now, how can I handle it? If I could break even on my Clivia, I'd lose over a hundred thousand yuan in assets. Now, I can make a few thousand yuan every day without even realizing it."
"The winter for Clivia is coming soon. Don't you think the price of Clivia is extremely unreasonable now? I've looked at the flowers in your shop. The ones I used to sell for two or three thousand yuan are now only seven or eight thousand. How much are your three pots of store-bearing flowers?"
"Thirty-twenty-five thousand."
"These three pots of flowers of yours aren't even as good as the last one I dealt with when I left last time, and yet you dare to ask for thirty thousand? Don't you think this price is too crazy?"
"That's perfectly normal! It's hard to find truly high-quality items on the market these days. They're all collected by wealthy individuals or cost upwards of 50,000 yuan. I wouldn't dare to tinker with those kinds of items."
"Although I don't like Western ideas, there's a saying in the West that makes a lot of sense: God makes people crazy before He wants to destroy them. Clivia is in its craziest phase right now. It's gone mad and is on the brink of collapse, with the possibility of collapse at any time."
"Brother Feng, don't scare me. Why do I feel like nothing happened?"
No matter how Wan Feng explained, did he have to tell him in detail everything that happened next?
"Whether you believe it or not is up to you. I'm telling you this: in my estimation, the Clivia market will collapse within twenty days. These Clivias that are worth over ten thousand yuan now will be worthless!"
"This is impossible! How could such a good situation become worthless? Brother Feng, are you jealous of me making money now?" Chen Tianchui's face looked a little ugly.
Am I jealous of you making money?
You only made a few cents!
