Chapter 389: 388. Ancestral Craftsmanship (91+)

The two had been communicating in Mandarin, so Hans and the others couldn't understand what they said.

When Chen Haonan went to get drinks, Hans asked impatiently, "What were you talking about just now?"

Li Du sighed: "You don't want to know, otherwise you won't be able to resist beating this guy."

Hans said dissatisfiedly: "He discriminates against us white people?"

Li Du said: "Who dares to discriminate against you white people? It's him who keeps making jokes, all kinds of jokes that I can't understand!"

He feels that Chen Haonan is a giant baby, who looks like an adult, but there is a child-like soul in his body.

However, this gave him a strange charm, and it was easy to win the trust of others. Anyway, Li Du felt that chatting with him was quite pleasant.

It was a strange feeling, which could only be explained by the fact that the world is so big and full of wonders.

Drinking drinks, the two sides took a break.

While drinking Coke, Li Du looked at the messy statues in the hall. These statues are mainly wood carvings, ranging from birds and beasts to humans, from buildings to plants, and there are various types.

Most of the statues have not been formed, and many of them are only half carved and then discarded. In this way, he can't tell the identity of the statues, so he can only guess roughly.

Looking at the wood carving, he asked, "Brother Haonan, why did you give up on this statue when it was only half carved?"

Chen Haonan said lazily, "I'm not interested anymore."

Li Du said: "I dare you to engage in woodcarving for fun?"

Chen Haonan said: "That's right, people have to work for interest? I do sculpture for pleasure, if it doesn't make me happy, I won't do it."

Li Du couldn't help giving a thumbs up, the life of the rich second generation is really cool.

After the break, Dao and Godzilla moved the wood down.

Chen Haonan went up to take a rough look, and said, "This small-leaf red sandalwood is of very good quality. Your quotation of 40,000 yuan is a bit low, and 50,000 yuan is fine."

When Li Du translated it, Hans asked pleasantly, "Then change the price to 50,000 yuan?"

Chen Haonan said: "People always say that I am naive, but buddy, you are more naive than me. You have already quoted the price, and you want to raise the price?"

He looked at the wood one by one, finally nodded and said that he was willing to buy all the wood.

There were still some planks or pieces of wood on the truck, and Li Du asked Godzilla to move them all down, intending to give them to Chen Haonan. For the carvers, the pieces of wood can just be used as raw materials.

Godzilla went to work, and Li Du asked, "What are you going to carve with mahogany?"

Mahogany is best for furniture, and it would be a waste to carve it into other things like decorations.

Chen Haonan said: "I plan to car beads."

"What?" Li Du was confused.

Chen Haonan looked at him strangely and said, "Car beads, bracelets, prayer beads, transfer beads, etc."

Li Du pointed to these tree trunks and said, "You use such a large piece of mahogany to drive beads? Isn't that too prodigal?"

Chen Haonan said: "What are you prodigal, I spent 80,000 yuan on your wood, and I can earn 100,000 yuan later."

Wenwan bracelets are indeed popular in the market now, but it would be too wasteful and a pity to use such a whole piece of mahogany to make beads.

Because of the car beads, you can use small pieces of mahogany. The value of the whole piece of mahogany of the same weight must be greater, and the value of scattered small pieces is much smaller.

Li Du also wanted to persuade him that this child is a rich second generation, and he was not short of money since he was a child, but such a waste is not a problem.

Just as he was about to speak, Chen Haonan ignored him, shifted his gaze to Godzilla and Da Ao, and said in surprise: "Hey, you still have these good things? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

The boxes brought in by Godzilla and Da Ao contained planks or pieces of wood. Li Du thought they were worthless leftovers. Judging by Chen Haonan's reaction, it seemed that this was not the case.

Hans reacted faster. Although he couldn't understand Chinese, he understood the meaning of the words from the change in the other person's expression: "Come on, buddy, come and have a look, see if you like this kind of thing."

A box contained pieces of wood, and a small stump-like piece of wood was placed on top, with a beautiful pattern and soft color, showing a moving light red.

Chen Haonan picked up the heavy piece of wood and looked around, put it on the coffee table and looked around again, then laughed, and said to Li Du: "Interesting, buddy, you made redwood from China?"

Li Du said: "No, I'm doing a warehouse auction. I found these wood from a warehouse. How about this wood?"

Chen Haonan exclaimed: "Good wood, this is South China Sea huanghuali wood, it is rare in the market now, especially in the United States, how can you still see this thing?"

After hearing what he said, Li Du was taken aback. He didn't expect such good things to be found in these leftovers.

South China Sea huanghuali wood, the top wood in mahogany, Antonio told them before, and now the international speculation of this wood is crazy, a ton is a terrifying 1.5 million US dollars!

Of course, this small wooden pier cannot weigh a ton, but it is 20 kilograms, and Chen Haonan struggled to hold it.

He patted the small wooden pier, and he said, "Okay, add this piece of huanghuali wood, and sell it to me together. I'll give you a price of 100,000 yuan, how about it?"

Mahogany identification is an extremely complicated subject, so Li Du kindly reminded him: "Do you want someone to identify them?"

Chen Haonan said: "No need, a small business of 100,000 yuan is still so laborious?"

Li Du blinked. I have met a lot of local tyrants in the past two days.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Chen Haonan laughed and said: "Just kidding, my old man always told me that you can't spend it like this if you have money. But there is really no need for appraisal. I believe you, you will be what you say. "

This put pressure on Li Du, and said, "Don't, we just met, it's not good, brother, it's better to find an authoritative third party for identification."

Chen Haonan laughed again, and said, "Come on, stop teasing you, do you really believe what I just said?"

He patted the wooden pier and said confidently: "I am more authoritative than any third party for the identities of these logs. This is what I do. Do you know what my family does?"

"I don't know." Li Du shook his head, secretly thinking that I would be a god if I knew.

He was about to be played crazy by this guy, who was an old driver who was always joking and led him into a ditch.

Chen Haonan said: "My family is in the furniture and wood business. I do woodcarving now because my grandpa did woodcarving, my great-grandpa did woodcarving, and my grandpa also did woodcarving. I have been playing with wood since I was a child, and I can still tell the difference. Out of mahogany and fake wood?"

Li Du hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, so you inherited the craftsmanship from your ancestors?"

Chen Haonan said: "Yes, it was my father's turn to inherit the craftsmanship of the ancestors, but he wanted to do business so he forced me to inherit it."

Having said that, he sighed.
