Zhang Jun was thinking about working with Lin Xian for some time, and he just made up his mind. He knew that jade business had some inside news and trades behind the scenes. An outsider couldn’t possibly understand how it worked.
Although he had X-ray vision, he needed a network to take care of jade stone supply and sales channels. He knew nothing of those.
Zhang Jun said, “Lin Xian, we need to talk. Is there a quiet place for a few words?”
Lin Xian smiled, “Of course. Follow me.”
Lin Xian was sharp enough to notice that Zhang Jun had things to tell her, and she was curious because Zhang Jun’s story had been legendary the last few days.
They met two days ago and already Zhang Jun had made 10 million yuan. He won 2 million with Zhuang Wen’s 200 thousand, then he won 3 million yuan’s worth of stones from the Gamble Stone Festival after he won his bet against Xu Bo. Furthermore, he picked out 2 excellent jade stones worth more than 10 million yuan!
Making 10 million in two days –only the most successful businesspeople could do it. But he did it as a recent college graduate!
To Lin Xian, Zhang Jun was already a legend. She felt a mysterious power emitting from this younger alumnus of hers.
There was a two-story building behind the warehouse for people to rest. In the lobby, there were only two people -Lin Xian and Zhang Jun. When they sat down, Lin Xian asked him, “What’s on your mind?”
Zhang Jun picked his words carefully. “Senior Lin, we just met a few days ago, but I think we’re friends already. Alumni aside, I’m personally very glad to get to know you better.”
Lin Xian laughed. “Zhang Jun, cut the crap. What do you want?”
Zhang Jun said, “I have an idea. Lin Xian, would you like to work with me?”
“Work with you?” Lin Xian’s eyes opened wide in astonishment.
“Yes. Jade business only.” Zhang Jun nodded.
Lin Xian measured Zhang Jun’s face, as if she’s expecting something to happen. Zhang Jun looked back in anticipation and excitement.”
She looked away and sighed. “What’s your plan?” she asked.
Zhang Jun sat up. “You and I, let’s start a jade store in Donghai. We can start from there and slowly open up more branches.”
Lin Xian chuckled shortly before she resumed a serious look. “Silly, do you think opening stores is that easy? Let me ask you this: how much investment do you need to open a store in Donghai? How many people are you going to hire? What kind of market research do you need? And most importantly, where are you getting the stones?
“Other concerns aside, jade supply itself is a big problem. In China, the Lin family is one of the leading retail dealers in jade business, but even we have problems obtaining high-quality jade.”
Zhang Jun wasn’t intimidated, however. “Jade supply is not a problem. We can buy them straight from Myanmar. As for the investment, a dozen million should suffice?”
Lin Xian couldn’t decide if she wanted to scream or laugh. She rolled her eyes. “First of all, if you want to start a store in Donghai and make it known to all, you must have your own ‘crown jewel’. These things are hard to come by, even the Lin family doesn’t have many of them. Second, when you’re growing business, the demand will rise, but big deals are tightly controlled by the Jade Gang. It’s almost impossible for outsiders to enter the market. What we could do will be limited. I’ll stop here. Can you solve just these two problems?”
“Yes,” said Zhang Jun without hesitation. “Supply won’t be a problem; the crown jewel is easy to get.”
His tone surprised Lin Xian. “Where does your confidence come from?”
Zhang Jun laughed. “If you set your mind onto something, and pick the right way to do it, you’ll often achieve what you aim for.”
Lin Xian gave Zhang Jun another hard look. “Zhang Jun, seems I only know little about you. Alright then! If you really want to do it, I can start with market research and risk assessment. From there, we’ll make business plans.”
Zhang Jun knew that a lot of preparation had to be done before a store was set up. He nodded and said, “Great! Thank you for everything!”
Lin Xian smiled, “Don’t mention it! You helped me make 30 million today, and I couldn’t thank you enough.”
When she laughed her breasts were shaking. Zhang Jun’s eyes were drawn towards them and he couldn’t stop staring at them. Through the clothes he saw white busts undulating and two enticing cherries in the middle of them.
Such nice boobs! Zhang Jun couldn’t help his naughty thoughts, I bet they feel good as well. If we’re together, I’d fall asleep between these beauties every day!
Lin Xian noticed where Zhang Jun was looking at. There was fire in her eyes. With a quiet Ahem she said, “Zhang Jun, enjoying the view?”
“Oops.”
Zhang Jun flushed and moved his eyes away immediately. He forced an embarrassed smile, “It’s not my fault. They’re so alluring.”
Lin Xian glared. “You’re looking for trouble.”
Zhang Jun tried to shift the topic. “Lin Xian, are you coming to the reunion? You’re the prettiest campus beauty and your elegance is unparalleled. A lot of my classmates would love to see you in person.”
Flattery worked. Lin Xian’s eyes glowed, “Are you still clinging onto that Ye Qian? Is that why you’re going?”
Zhang Jun’s lips curled. “We’re from different backgrounds and we never dated. There’s nothing to cling on to. I’ll be honest with you, I’m going because of another person.”
“Another one? Who?” Lin Xian’s curiosity was piqued.
“My first girlfriend.” Zhang Jun sighed, looking a little down, “After Ye Qian rejected me, I started dating this other girl. Too bad we broke up when she decided to go abroad after graduation.”
“Do you still like her?” Lin Xian became even more interested.
“I don’t know. I just wanted to see her. She was feeble-minded. She broke up with me because of her parents.” Faint, painful emotion glinted in his eyes.
