341. Jewelry Trading Market(1/2)

The capital of Naga is a bustling city full of exotic style. Although it is not as magnificent as Anxia Jingcheng, it is much larger than Yongcheng.

Because it is also a port at the same time, the bustling and prosperous place is not as good as a place like Jiangcheng.

On the way to the embassy, ​​you can almost see people with all kinds of skin and hair colors coming and going on the street.

In fact, there are many foreign people in the six southern provinces, but most of these people live in fixed places and interact with fixed people, and more of them are only a few people who can see in Jiangcheng and Yingzhou Yongcheng.

But it is different here. There are many people of all skin colors, and local residents also look like they are used to it. At first glance, it is almost a small global village.

Leng Sa and his group were sent directly to Anxia's embassy in Naga. Prince Carlos personally sent them into the gate before saying goodbye. He also told all the guests that they had come from afar and worked hard. Tonight, two attendants, Prince Mu and Deputy Chief Lu, were arranged to enter the palace to meet the king. Others can rest for one night first. After the Dayin's mission arrives tomorrow, King Naga will hold a welcome dinner for the guests in the palace.

It took me almost half a month to walk from Beijing to Naga, which was indeed a bit hard.

Everyone entered the embassy to settle down. Long Governor Jun and others had to discuss matters with the ambassador to learn about the situation in Naga. Leng Sa slept beautifully in such a way that he was idle.

It was still noon when they arrived at the Anxia Embassy in Naga. Leng Sa woke up and it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.

Sitting on the bed, stretched and moved, I couldn't help but sigh, "It feels so good to be down-to-earth."

Although she was not seasick, she could step on the land and sleep on the bed on the ground for six or seven consecutive days. The feeling of stability she felt was not on the boat.

Sure enough, she is still a land creature.

"Young lady is awake?" Hearing her voice, Lan Jing pushed open the door and came in and said with a smile.

Leng Sa said, "Are you tired just getting off the boat? Why don't you take a break?"

Lan Jing smiled and said, "Yuan Ying is going to rest. I will change shifts with her later."

Leng Sa nodded, "If you feel tired, take a break. I don't need anyone to do anything here. Where is Fu Fengcheng?"

Lan Jing said, "The eldest young master went to see Prince Mu before he came back yet. But Mrs. Chen came here and knew that the young lady was resting, so she went back first, saying that she would come to play with the young lady later."

Leng Sa got up and got out of bed, reached out and put his hand to put his long messy hair together, looked at the person in the mirror and still looked radiant and nodded with satisfaction, "Sister Chen said, is there anything wrong with me?"

Lan Jing shook her head and said, "Mrs. Chen said nothing is wrong, she just wants to go out for a walk with her young lady."

Leng Sa smiled and said, "I remember that Sister Chen has been to Naga. It would be easier to play with her and take us to play with her than to bump around. Get it clean and go to play with Sister Chen." After finally going abroad, I spent half of the first day to sleep, which was a bit wasteful.

Lan Jing nodded, her eyes were also bright. On the way to the embassy at noon, she just looked outside through the car window, and felt that the scenery and customs were completely different from An Xia, and she was indeed a little curious.

The two of them packed up and just went out, they saw Fu Yucheng sitting in the living room reading a book.

The large-scale residence arranged by the embassy is also very spacious, and of course it cannot be compared with the single-family villas in the capital.

They were arranged to have a large suite with a large area. Three bedrooms, a study, and a living room. The master bedroom also has a large balcony. The floor is on the sixth floor. At a glance, you can almost see the large view outside the embassy and even the sea in the distance.

Fu Fengcheng was worried that Fu Yucheng would cause trouble in Naga, so he directly pulled him together.

"Sister-in-law." Seeing Leng Sa come out, Fu Yucheng quickly stood up and said. After these days of love and iron-blooded education, Fu Yucheng can already call her sister-in-law calmly and conscientiously.

Leng Sa said: "Why are you sitting here alone and not going out for a walk with someone?"

Fu Yucheng said, "Brother, let me follow you."

"..." Leng Sa wanted to say that I'm going to play with Sister Chen, what are you doing with a group of women? But when I thought about it, I understood Fu Fengcheng's intention and nodded, "Okay, then let's go."

Fu Yucheng quickly put the book aside, "Sister-in-law, where are we going?"

Leng Sa said, "Go out and find someone to play."

Chen Wan had just gotten up when they passed by, and was very happy to see Leng Sa coming over.

"I originally wanted to take you to the city, but I didn't expect you to rest. I thought about it and came back to rest. I was old and couldn't compare with my youth." Chen Wan said with a smile.

Leng Sa said, "I finally got off the boat, but I fell asleep all of a sudden. Sister Chen often went out and was much better than me."

Chen Wan laughed and said, "If you used to be so flattering, I would have to bear it. Now I don't know that you haven't returned to the six southern provinces. Now the girls and wives in Yongcheng all regard the eldest young lady as their idols and highly praised it. I'm afraid that Mr. Fu will stand aside."

Leng Sa was a little helpless, "Sister Chen laughed at me."

Chen Wan shook her head, "I won't laugh at you. You're so good. Who said that our women are not as good as those men? We just want to see that our brains are better than them, but our skills are not inferior to them."

"Sister Chen is right." Leng Sa smiled.

Chen Wan glanced at Fu Yucheng who was sitting on the other side drinking tea, and whispered in Leng Sa's ear, "You seem to have a lot of harmony with the fourth young master of your family?" What was Fu Yucheng's relationship with Leng Sa earlier? Chen Wan had seen it personally. She was almost shocked when she saw Fu Yucheng following Leng Sa with a calm look on her face.

Leng Sa smiled and said, "Children are ignorant, so they will be obedient if they beat a few more times."

Chen Wan raised her eyebrows and immediately understood the current relationship between Leng Sa and Fu Yucheng. She couldn't help but smile, "Well, I think Mr. Fu is not like a sinister person. After all, he is the brother of Mr. Fu's son, Mr. Fu's son. The relationship can be eased better than being tense."

Knowing that Chen Wan was concerned about her, Leng Sa nodded and said, "Don't worry, Sister Chen, I know it."

Chen Wan smiled and said, "I don't need to worry about your intelligence. Do you know what Naga is most famous?"

Leng Sa thought for a while and said, "I remember that Naga seemed to be rich in rubies and pearls."

Chen Wan nodded and said, "Yes, the most famous ones in Naga are rubies and pearls. Our Anxia women have loved pearls since ancient times, but Naga's pearls are better than those produced in Anxia. Now, 70% of Anxia's high-end pearls are from Naga. Especially their black pearls are very beautiful. There is the largest pearl and gem trading market in Naga. I came this time to see if there are any good products."

Leng Sa nodded, "Sister Chen also has a jewelry store at home, so it's time to go and have a look."

Chen Wan looked at her with a smile, "Go?"

"Go!" Leng Sa said without hesitation. No woman can resist the charm of jewelry, and it would be good if she didn't buy it and went to see it.

Of course, good things have to be shared with good friends. Leng Sa thought about it and called Zhang Huizhi again, and Zhang Huizhi again called Yu Xinyou, so the group left the embassy and headed into the city.

Because it was during the meeting of the Five States, in order to avoid any accidents involving envoys from various countries in Naga, Naga spent a lot of effort to rectify the security issues.

Patrol figures in uniforms can often be seen on the streets, and even Chen Wan said that the capital of Naga looks much better than when she came last time.

In addition to a few girls, they also followed Fu Yucheng and the guards who protected them. There were almost a dozen people in a huge group.

The jewelry trading market that Chen Wan mentioned is located near the seaside in the west of the city, and is not too far from the Anxia Embassy.

Although I heard Chen Wan say that she was mentally prepared too early along the way, I couldn't help but feel a little shocked when I saw it.

The surprise of Zhang Huizhi and Yu Xinyou is even more difficult to hide. It is completely different from the high-end jewelry stores they usually enter and exit. It looks like ordinary small shops, and some even set up stalls on the roadside. However, almost all the merchants sell similar things, including pearls and gems.

It is not just the ruby ​​of Naga specialty, but all kinds of gems are not difficult to see here. It seems that the precious gems that are regarded as treasure by powerful women in Anxia Jingcheng are as ordinary as cabbage on street stalls.

However, both of them have eyesight, and it was soon obvious that these vendors are of varying quality, whether they are gems or pearls. If people with insufficient eyesight come here, it is difficult to say whether they will lose or make a profit.

Especially gems, many of them are so poor that even if they are not considered gems in Anxia, ​​they are embarrassed to wear them as jewelry, and they can only be used to decorate some decorative corners.

Chen Wan took them all the way through shops and vendors who were enthusiastic about attracting customers and walked all the way inside.

While walking, he told the other three people in Anxia language, "This is not only the largest jewelry trading market in Naga, but also the largest jewelry trading market in the surrounding countries. Merchants from many nearby countries and places are willing to bring their goods here to trade. Because Naga's gems and pearls are very famous, some merchants from afar are willing to buy more other things when they come. Second, Naga's location is very good and shipping is also developed. Although big countries like Dayin and Anxia are rich, many small merchants who are far away cannot pass by themselves, and the risks on the road are uncontrollable. Although Anxia's jewelry merchants are rich and have ships, the goods are not attractive enough if they are too far away. If they are not cost-effective, they will most likely give up. Therefore, Naga is also a transit station connecting northern powers such as Anxia and Dayin."

Zhang Huizhi pulled Chen Wan and asked around curiously, but Leng Sa thought about something.

If this is true, the matter about Shenyou Island may not be easy to discuss.

Not only is it a matter of minerals and land, will Naga worry that the Anxia people will establish a second regional transit center on Shenyou Island?

In the past, Shenyou Island was sparsely populated and naturally could not compete with countries like Naga. However, if Anxia officials came forward and Anxia's merchants supported it, it would not be difficult to establish a maritime transit station to replace Naga as long as the policies were in place.

"sough?"

Leng Sa blinked and looked innocently at the few people standing in front of him and staring at him, "What?"

Zhang Huizhi walked back and pulled Leng Sa forward, "We're here, what are you thinking? You didn't even hear me."

Leng Sa smiled embarrassedly, "I'm a little confused about thinking about something, sorry."

Chen Wan waved her hand indifferently, pointed to the shop of a three-story building behind her and smiled, "This is one of the three largest jewelry suppliers in Naga. Go in and take a look?"

Leng Sa smiled and said, "Okay, but we can only take a look and carry things for Sister Chen. We are short of money..."

Chen Wan smiled helplessly and said, "I'm just making a living. If you want me to buy them all for yourself, I can't afford it."

Chen Wan is obviously an old customer and a big customer, so the boss came up before he even entered the door.

The status of a woman in Naga is lower than that of Anxia, ​​but the male boss is very enthusiastic about Chen Wan and has truly interpreted the customer as God very well, and there is no sign of favoring boys over girls.

It can be seen that there is no rule in this world that money cannot solve. If it cannot, it may be that the money is not enough.

Chen Wan's Naga is not very fluent, but she takes an interpreter when she goes out.

The boss was also very pleased. With a wave of his hand, he directly asked someone to take out the best goods in his store for Chen Wan to choose.

Looking at the various gems and boxes of pearls neatly placed in front of me, even though Master Leng was used to the big scene, he couldn't help but feel dizzy.

Zhang Huizhi approached her and whispered, "For the first time I feel like I'm so poor."

Leng Sa patted her and smiled, "The price here is much lower than Anxia. If you like it, you can pick two items and take them back for your own use or as a gift."

Zhang Huizhi directly took the same quality gems and pearls, compared with the finished products she saw at Anxia high-end jewelry store, and naturally felt that she was very poor.

Not to mention the shipping costs of these things and the price of crafting and crafting, and the difference in the middlemen's profit, the premiums of those jewelers alone are quite amazing.

So the price of the things here is actually not as terrifying as Zhang Huizhi thought.

While Chen Wan was discussing business, Zhang Huizhi pulled Leng Sa and Yu Xinyou for a walk around the store.

As soon as I asked, I found that the price was quite beautiful. There are also shops for custom-made bare stones in Beijing, but gems of the same quality are at least 40% cheaper than those of Anxia Jingcheng, and pearls are directly discounted. This is the price of publicly sold. Jewelry merchants like Chen Wan may be able to get a more discounted price.

"I want to be a jewelry businessman, too." Zhang Huizhi murmured.

Yu Xinyou glanced at her and interrupted her delusion with a rare voice, "First of all, you have to be rich."

Leng Sa smiled and said, "You have to be able to take risks."

This era is not as good as her previous life. Going overseas to do business still requires great risks. Sometimes, if you accidentally fail, you only need to lose one time, and you have to spend all your life earnings.
