Chapter 2185 (1/2)

Tang Ben's reminder is not unreasonable. Zhang Feng knew when he went to Zheng Qing that Nanhua Gang is actually a jade brand as famous as mingyuzhai, but mingyuzhai is well known in Jiangshi, but Nanhua Gang is not so famous because mingyuzhai's jade is mainly operated in Jiangshi.

Although the jade of Nanhua gang has set up shops in Jiangshi, it has basically not been managed. It has always focused on the export business. Over time, the business of Nanhua gang has always been dominated by the export business, supplemented by the internal business in Jiangshi. It is intended that the jade of Nanhua Gang is not very popular in Jiangshi.

Tang Ben means that Zhang Feng's antique shop in Jiangshi now focuses on exporting jade. Will this affect the operation of the shop? If Zhang Feng insists on choosing the jade of Nanhua Gang, he may cause very heavy losses in the end.

Mr. Li also knew what Tang Ben meant. He also knew the previous affairs of the Nanhua gang. The Nanhua Gang started jade business because it had to catch up with the jade tide in Jiang city. Later, the head of the family had foresight and knew that mingyuzhai was the dominant family in the jade shop in Jiang City, so he resolutely chose the way of export.

This has formed the situation that mingyuzhai of the Tang family and the jade line of the Nanhua Gang share the world in the jade circle of Jiangshi today. Due to the different business scope of the two families, there is no conflict at ordinary times, just learning from each other.

Master Li said to Zhang Feng, ”do you really think there is no problem with this choice? If you choose the wrong choice, the loss is irreparable. You should think clearly. For a long time, the jade of Nanhua gang has been unable to win the popularity of Kaijiang city because it is only exported and conforms to foreign aesthetics. Do you intend to follow the path of Nanhua Gang?”

When Zhang Feng heard what Master Li and Tang Ben said, he was offering him a proposal. Of course, he could not accept the proposal. Zhang Feng said, ”it was all in the past. Now people don't like foreign goods? They think that the outside is better than their own. Now this kind of obsequiousness towards foreigners should be very serious. The way of integrating China and the west of Nanhua gang may really work.”

Tang Ben smiled and said: ”You boy, you should talk to my opponent in front of me. So, you are going to oppose me in business. You dare to say it and say it so openly. However, if it's you, I think you can succeed. Anyway, no one can threaten the first treasure of my mingyuzhai for a long time, so I'm optimistic about you.”

When Zhang Feng heard Tang Ben's words, he shook his head, just smiled and said: ”No, I don't mean that. According to my understanding, no one can shake the throne of mingyuzhai in Jiangshi jade store in the next 20 years. Mr. Tang Ben can rest assured that taking the road of integrating China and the West in Jiangshi can only attract people's attention in a short time. Jade is certainly a good part of our Chinese tradition.”

This is Zhang Feng's truth. He used to have a special liking for the market of jade and has been exploring ancient Chinese jade. In the past, he felt that those jade with Western elements not only destroyed the traditional beauty, but also had no moral meaning, but such novel things can really attract people's attention.

It's like a milk tea that you're used to drinking. It suddenly tastes like mustard. At most, you can try it at one time. If you drink this brand for a long time, the sales of the original flavor will last for a long time. Therefore, it's difficult to pull down a brand like Tang Ben that manages traditional jade without any major blow.

Zhang Feng obviously knew this, but Zhang Feng ignored one thing. When he said this, he didn't notice that the faces of Master Li and Tang Ben changed, because they doubted Zhang Feng after they heard Zhang Feng's words.

Because Zhang Feng said that he chose the goods of Nanhua Gang because they can attract people's attention in a short time. After that, doesn't it mean that Zhang Feng just needs to run an antique shop well within this period of time, and doesn't care about the fate of the antique shop?

Because once a store is labeled, it is difficult to be stripped off, and so is the antique store. Once Zhang Feng starts to operate the jade of Nanhua Gang, the brand will either continue or directly close down and reopen the store. However, Zhang Feng now says that as long as the antique store attracts people's attention within a period of time, it shows that Zhang Feng is not a good antique store in Jiangshi Dongdian.

What's Zhang Feng's purpose? Mr. Li and Tang Ben always thought Zhang Feng wanted to be a good antique shop before they came to Jiangshi, but now Zhang Feng's words made them suspicious. They began to don't know Zhang Feng's purpose and would keep an eye on Zhang Feng in the future.

But they are just guessing, and there is no substantive evidence to prove their ideas. They just look at each other and determine their thoughts, which are not revealed on the surface.

After that, several people talked about some irrelevant topics until a meal was finished. Zhang Feng and master Li didn't eat much because they had just eaten snacks. Instead, Tang Ben was eating all the time. A meal passed quickly.

Zhang Feng knew that everything was almost finished. He didn't want to stay here anymore. He returned the black VIP card to master Li. Master Li gave Zhang Feng the agreed jade, which was a white jade.
