Chapter 574 Solution
579. Solution
While Ma San was confident, Zhang Anyi was not having a hard time at all. Her best friend Zhang Qiqing's "passing the buck" made her feel extremely frightened.
Of course, Zhang Anyi didn't dare to tell Wei Zhong these things. If her husband knew about these "bad things", she would probably be kicked out.
Reluctantly, Zhang Anyi took out her mobile phone and continued to dial the number of her best friend Zhang Qiqing.
"Hello, the phone you dialed has been turned off."
The notification tone from the other end of the phone made Zhang Anyi even more heartbroken. Unlike Zhang Anyi's "silliness", Zhang Qiqing was ready to run away immediately after learning about Zhang Anyi's accident.
Although he said that he was not the one who took the blame after the incident, Zhang Qiqing felt that it was better to be cautious. So not only did I block Zhang Anyi, but I also planned to run away to avoid the limelight.
At the beginning, she encouraged Zhang Anyi because of her "connections", but she didn't expect that the Wei family would offend the boss of WF Group.
"What a bunch of idiots." Zhang Qiqing cursed as he packed his things. According to her idea, she must make more money under the big tree Zhang Anyi.
But now that something happened to the other party after just making tens of millions, this was really beyond her expectation.
"Khan, I thought the Wei family would come forward to help Zhang Anyi. It seems that the Wei family is also in danger of crossing the river. Thirty-six strategies are the best." After Zhang Qiqing figured it out, he packed up his things faster.
Zhang Qiqing didn't answer the phone, which made Zhang Anyi even more frustrated. With a desperate attitude, she called her account manager.
"Hello, Manager Zhong?"
"Ms. Zhang, what's the matter?"
Zhang Anyi said with a guilty conscience: "Manager Zhong, I have a batch of jewelry that needs to be mortgaged. Do you think the bank can give me a smuggling account?"
"Ms. Zhang, what do you mean?" Manager Zhong was a little surprised.
Zhang Anyi took a deep breath and pretended to be calm: "That's it. I need a sum of money urgently recently. You can see that this can be mortgaged or cashed out directly. Of course I want cash."
"Ms. Zhang, it may be difficult for you to monetize through formal channels. My personal suggestion is that you try private channels." Manager Zhong thought for a while and suggested.
"Is there anything suitable?" Zhang Anyi asked eagerly.
Manager Zhong said after a moment of the meeting: "It depends on how much money you need to mortgage. Generally, if the jewelry is cashed out, the price may be half or even 30% off."
"So expensive?" Zhang Anyi said with some pain.
Manager Zhong said helplessly: "Ms. Zhang, the market situation is like this. Private business charges are relatively high, but the bank's charges are not much higher."
"Okay, thank you, Manager Zhong. I'll think about it. Send me your contact information first." Zhang Anyi decided to go back and see how much of her "private money" she had.
"You're welcome, Ms. Zhang, I will send the contact information to your mobile phone shortly."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Anyi walked up to the second floor of her villa and opened the jewelry cabinet. Inside were some "betrothal gifts" given by the Wei family when she married Wei Zhong.
Although she was reluctant to let go, it was no longer a question of whether she wanted to let go or not.
Zhang Anyi looked at the jewelry that had earned her countless face with complicated eyes, gritted her teeth and put them all in her bag.
Originally, Zhang Anyi only planned to "pawn" a few pieces, but thinking that the basket she wanted to paw this time was a bit big, she simply packed up all the jewelry directly.
If the jewelry is gone, you can buy it again, but if the "freedom" is gone, then there is really nothing.
"Hello, is this Mr. Zhao?" Zhang Anyi called Manager Zhong and dialed.
A man's voice came from the other side and asked, "Yes, what can I do for you?"
"Oh, it's like this. I've been in trouble recently. I have some jewelry that I need to pawn." Zhang Anyi pretended to be calm.
The person on the other end of the phone said simply: "Oh, that's okay. Come to the third floor of IFC. Can we have an interview at this pawn shop?"
"Well, okay, but the amount I want is a bit large." Zhang Anyi asked worriedly.
The man smiled and said confidently: "Don't worry, madam, as long as there is nothing wrong with your things, you don't have to worry about the money. The money will be in your account within thirty minutes."
"Okay, we'll talk about it later." Zhang Anyi felt relieved when she heard the other party's assurance, but out of caution, she still called Manager Zhong to confirm the other party's strength.
"Ms. Zhang, you can rest assured. Mr. Zhao is one of the best in Shanghai. As long as you provide enough collateral, you don't need to worry about money." Manager Zhong explained. .
"Okay, I'll trouble you." Zhang Anyi breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone. He picked up his bag, walked downstairs and drove towards Guojin.
After a while, Zhang Anyi parked her car in the parking lot and came to the third floor of the International Finance Corporation mentioned by the other party. There is only one facade on the entire third floor, so it can be said that it has very strong financial resources.
After Zhang Anyi rang the doorbell, the lady at the front desk who was packing her things opened the door with a smile and asked, "Hello, madam, how can I help you."
"I made an appointment with your boss, Manager Zhao." In order to prevent others from recognizing her, Zhang Anyi also put on a mask.
"Okay, wait in the lounge, I'll help you contact someone." The front desk lady nodded and took Zhang Anyi to the lounge next door.
"Have a glass of water first, I'll help you call the manager." After the front desk lady put down the cup, she politely closed the door.
Zhang Anyi secretly looked around and found that the decoration of this company was very good. The chairs in the lounge were also made of mahogany, and she immediately looked at their strength differently.
"Dong Dong Dong"
A man walked in with a knock on the door.
This man looked about 40 years old and carried a green jade plaque. With Zhang Anyi's research on jewelry, she knew at a glance that it was expensive.
"Hello, is this Ms. Zhang who just called? My surname is Zhao, and I'm the boss here. Manager Zhong also told us about your situation. If you have no other questions, let me take a look at the goods first?" The man said with a smile.
"Well, it's all here." Zhang Anyi was not surprised that the other party knew her name. She could find out the other party's bottom line. The other party also wanted to do a good job, otherwise it would be troublesome to receive black goods.
As Zhang Anyi said this, she took out the jewelry she wanted to pawn this time from her bag.
"Oh, the quality is good." The man saw the jewelry Zhang Anyi took out and praised.
Zhang Anyi did not answer, but urged: "The things are all here, see what price you can give."
"Okay, wait a moment, I will ask the appraiser to come over." The man nodded, then took out his mobile phone and made a call: "Mr. Gao, please come to the VIP lounge."
After a while, a white-haired old man walked in with a cane.
"That's all?" The old man asked.
Manager Zhao nodded and said: "Well, please trouble Mr. Gao."
"You're welcome, let me take a look first." After that, the old man put on a pair of glasses and picked up the nearest jade necklace in front of him and looked at it carefully.
After a while, the old man nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's an authentic old pit ice-type floating green. The material is good and the carving is acceptable. The market price is about 1.8 million, the purchase price is 1.5 million, and we can give about 120 pieces here."
"Only 1.2 million?" Zhang Anyi said with some pain. She spent 2 million to buy this ice-type floating green necklace.
The old man didn't say anything. Manager Zhao smiled and said, "Ms. Zhang, you also know that the pawn price is different from the market price. Except for the top-level imperial green, the others will be discounted more or less. Of course, we are all pawning here. You can come and take it away at any time within six months."
"Okay, continue." Although it hurts, Zhang Anyi really has no choice now.
After getting Zhang Anyi's consent, the man gestured, "Mr. Gao, please continue."
"Yes."
The old man picked up another pair of jade earrings and observed them carefully for a moment before saying, "A pair of Zhengyang green glass earrings. This pair is a good thing and can be sold at a real price of 3 million."
Zhang Anyi did not speak, but nodded in approval. She spent 2.8 million to buy this pair of earrings, and now it has increased a lot.
There are few Zhengyang green things circulating in the market, and as long as there are goods, they are basically sold out in seconds. There is no such good stuff in ordinary places, and only in some large auctions can you see this kind of top-quality jade.
"An ice bracelet, this one is generally worth 600,000."
"A 15cm South Sea gold pearl necklace, this is a good thing, the market price is about 1.2 million, you can give me the actual price."
"A diamond necklace, the market price is 600,000, the pawn price is 150,000."
"A pair of diamond earrings, the market price is 150,000, the pawn price is 30,000."
Suddenly, an emerald green ring made the old man stunned, and he carefully observed it several times. When he saw the traditional Chinese dragon character inside the ring, the old man took a deep breath and said.
"An imperial green ring, the market value is 10 million, sorry, I'm going to the bathroom." After appraising the ring, Mr. Gao pretended to be uncomfortable and wanted to go to the bathroom.
Manager Zhao narrowed his eyes and immediately understood that this was Mr. Gao's "wink" to him that this thing was prickly.
So he pretended to be calm and said: "Ms. Zhang, drink a glass of water first, and we will continue when Mr. Gao comes back?"
"Well, okay." Zhang Anyi nodded without taking it seriously.
Zhang Anyi never thought that the owner of this pawnshop would be her husband's "mortal enemy" Long family. And the ring in her hand was once the heirloom of the Long family.
When Zhang Anyi married into the Wei family, Wei Zhong asked the old man for such a treasure for his young wife, but no one expected it to appear in the Long family's store again today.
After Gao Lao pretended to be calm and went to the bathroom, he called Long Yaozu.
"Hello, Yaozu?"
Long Yaozu saw his cousin's number and thought something happened in the store. He asked: "What's wrong, cousin? Something happened in the store?"
"Yaozu, I saw the jade ring of the Long family." Gao Lao choked.
"What did you say? Are you sure, cousin? You can't say this casually." Long Yaozu on the other end was not calm after hearing this.
Old Gao affirmed: "Don't worry, my eyes are not presbyopic yet. It was a woman who brought it to pawn. I recognized it at a glance."
"Woman? Pawn? Could she be from the Wei family?" Long Yaozu asked.
Old Gao speculated: "It's probably someone from the Wei family. She was wearing a mask, but it looks like she should be Wei Zhong's wife."
"Is it her? That's not surprising. My uncle's things must be taken down." Long Yaozu narrowed his eyes and said in a serious tone.
Mr. Gao nodded and said, "Don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion. I'll go in first. She will worry too much as time goes by."
"Okay, cousin, I'm sorry to trouble you." Long Yaozu took a deep breath and said.
Gao Lao smiled and said: "I am also a member of the Long family. One family does not speak the same language."
After hanging up the phone, Long Yaozu couldn't calm down for a long time. He never imagined that he would come into contact with the Long family's heirloom again in this way.
Back then, the Long family was expelled from the imperial capital, and even the family heirlooms were taken away by the Wei family. It can be said to be very embarrassing. But today he would not let the family heirloom be lost from his hands no matter what he said.
After Gao Lao returned to the VIP lounge, he pretended to be calm and said: "I'm old. I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long. Do you have any objection to the price I just gave you?"
Zhang Anyi shook her head and said, "No, keep going."
"That's good." After speaking, Mr. Gao continued to pick up a pair of jade bracelets and looked at them.
"A pair of violet ice bracelets. The color is good, but unfortunately there are a few flaws. The market price is 1.6 million, and the actual price is 1.3 million."
"Jade necklace 1.2 million, jade earrings 3 million, jade bracelet 600,000, pearl necklace 1.2 million, diamond necklace 150,000, diamond earrings 30,000, jade ring 10 million, jade bracelet 1 300,000, a total of 17.48 million. I’ll give you a total of 17.5 million. Can you think of the current June and the dead stock if it’s not redeemed in June?” After Gao Lao’s appraisal, Manager Zhao gave his own psychological price.
"Only 17.5 million? It's a bit too little." Zhang Anyi muttered.
Manager Zhao smiled and said: "Miss Zhang, that's not what you said. There are naturally rules for pawns. You were also introduced by Manager Zhong. I will give you 20 million privately. In terms of time, it is only 5 What do you think of the one-month redemption period?”
"20 million? Five months?" After Zhang Anyi murmured in her heart, she felt that there seemed to be no better way than this, so she nodded and said, "Okay, 20 million is 20 million."
"Happy, Ms. Zhang, please wait while I ask someone to draft the contract." Manager Zhao smiled.
After a while, Manager Zhao took the contract and handed it to Zhang Anyi and said: "Ms. Zhao, take a look. If you have no objection, I will arrange the financial transfer immediately after you sign it."
"Well, let me take a look." Zhang Anyi read it carefully several times and confirmed that there was nothing fishy before signing her name on the contract.
"OK, the money has been transferred. Please check it." Manager Zhao said with a smile.
After Zhang Anyi opened her phone and saw the text message, she nodded: "Okay, I received it and I said goodbye in advance."
"Goodbye, Miss Zhang."
