Song Ziqing sighed softly, seemingly feeling sorry for the white jade.
She knew that for a long time, this color was disliked because it was too plain.
Song Ziqing has a deep understanding of jadeite, and black jadeite is her favorite.
In her eyes, the mysterious black color of jadeite was like a black hole in the universe, attracting her to explore it endlessly. She had searched for jadeite in the jade mines of Myanmar many times, but returned disappointed each time.
"Black jadeite is commonly known as ink jade, which appears dark green under light. There is another type, which is of poor quality and looks dirty; insiders call it 'black chicken'."
Black is a color of mystery and solemnity, representing authority and power. In jadeite, black jadeite is also quite special and unique.
Song Ziqing's voice suddenly became low and mysterious. She had always wanted to collect a piece of black jadeite and wanted to give this color to Lin Chengyu, feeling that it suited him very well.
Zheng Tai could also tell that black jadeite must be very rare. Even Song Ziqing, who owned mines in Myanmar, had not collected any black jadeite.
She teased, "Ziqing, you've become obsessed with black jadeite?!"
Song Ziqing smiled and said firmly, "That's right, Sister Zhou, if Chow Tai Fook ever gets its hands on black jadeite again, you absolutely have to save some for me. No matter the price, I'll buy it!"
She felt that having more people meant having more channels, and maybe Chow Tai Fook would help her find the gift she planned to give to Lin Chengyu.
Lin Chengyu is Song Ziqing's lover and the person who will accompany her for the rest of her life.
Lin Chengyu now has everything he needs in terms of food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, making it increasingly difficult for Song Ziqing to give him a surprise.
Song Ziqing had always felt that Lin Chengyu and Mo Cui were a perfect match in terms of temperament.
The color of the dark jade is like the water of the deep sea, mysterious and unpredictable, while Lin Chengyu exudes a profound temperament that makes people want to get to know him better.
So Song Ziqing thought of finding such a special piece of black jadeite and giving it to him as a surprise.
Mrs. Zheng was a smart woman. Seeing Song Ziqing's radiant expression, she guessed that Song Ziqing probably wanted to give the jadeite as a gift to Lin Chengyu or her father.
However, Zheng Tai was unaware that Song Jingwei had a scholarly mindset. Although he worked in economics, he had excellent handwriting and had been trained in traditional Chinese painting since childhood. Song Ziqing's early learning of calligraphy and painting was also influenced by him.
Instead of giving him jadeite, it's better to give him a jade seal. The four major seal stones in China are Shoushan stone from Fujian, Qingtian stone from Zhejiang, Changhua stone from Zhejiang, and Balin stone from Inner Mongolia.
As long as she gives one of the seal stones to Song Jingwei, Song Ziqing feels that her father will definitely give her a loving hug.
However, good jade alone is not enough; you also need skilled jade carving masters to bring out the beauty and value of the jade.
However, the most powerful figures in this industry are not in Hong Kong, but in mainland China.
Beijing, Shanghai, Suzhou, and Guangzhou are all home to many master jade carvers, and many of them have even founded their own schools of jade carving.
Song Ziqing planned to have Lin Chengyu send someone to invite some of these talents to work in Hong Kong if he had the chance, since life in Hong Kong was much better than in mainland China.
Now, because of the existence of the shipping company, although the company has not been established for long and only travels between Southeast Asian countries, Songlin Group has also established considerable cooperation with China, and occasionally helps transport some grains and other items needed by China.
At that time, these masters can come to Hong Kong by ship. As long as they have real skills, she can carve all her jadeite and seal stones for everyone.
These masters, once they know that she has a large quantity of top-quality jade and seal stones, she believes that none of them would refuse to cooperate with her.
Song Ziqing also came to Hong Kong. After the Song Lin Group established a shipping company, he learned that many people from the mainland came to Hong Kong by transport ships.
However, since they weren't legitimately transported, they were essentially smuggled. Those who could get on board either had connections or spent a lot of money.
Songlin Shipping operates in the same way, and recently helped the company find several relevant talents from the mainland, making Lin Chengyu's management work much easier.
What pleased Song Ziqing the most was that among these smuggled people were several experts from families of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. These people had paid to board Song Lin Group's ship and smuggled themselves to Hong Kong because they saw that the situation on the mainland was not good.
Before these traditional Chinese medicine practitioners even disembarked, the people on board had already found out their backgrounds and specialties, leading some of them to join the Songlin Group directly.
Some self-important people thought they were very talented and would become sought-after talents in Hong Kong, so they did not agree to become members of the Song Lin Group.
These people who secretly boarded the boat were a group of people swept up by the tide of the times. In order to make a living and pursue their dreams, they had no choice but to leave their familiar land and embark on the smuggling route to Hong Kong.
On this ship, they met people from different regions. Some were poor and wanted to try their luck in Hong Kong; some had committed crimes in their hometowns and wanted to escape capture; and some had been deceived and thought that they could live a good life in Hong Kong.
Life on the ship was not easy. They could only squeeze into the small cabin, eat simple meals, and endure the tossing and swaying of the sea.
However, they did not give up hope; they believed they could find their place in Hong Kong. On the boat, they shared their experiences and dreams, encouraging and supporting each other.
Finally, the ship arrived in Hong Kong. They saw the bustling city, the dazzling nightlife, and countless opportunities and possibilities.
They excitedly disembarked, only to find themselves facing an even bigger problem: they had no status, no jobs, and no money. They could only find refuge in the slums near the docks, beginning their long job search.
In the process, they encountered all sorts of difficulties and setbacks. They were deceived, bullied, and rejected.
Despite this, quite a few shrewd people still applied for jobs at Songlin Group. It was only then that everyone realized that Songlin Group wasn't so easy to get into.
Competition within the Songlin Group is intensifying; without genuine talent and skills, the Songlin Group can fire you at any time.
Of course, if you are truly a talented individual, the compensation offered by Songlin Group is something many people can only dream of.
In particular, Lin Chengyu promised that if the companies performed well, these people would receive a share of the profits every year.
