Return To 1977 Chapter 1010: Inner cabinet
lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!
People in the capital have always used the phrase "the new painting of the tree house is not old, this person must be in the Ministry of Internal Affairs" to describe the nouveau riche who suddenly become rich.
But even if Hong Yanwu's grandfather and grandmother, the real Ministry of Internal Affairs, were still alive, they would probably be angered to death by this "third grandson".
Not for anything else, but because Hong Yanwu is too low-quality.
I have been a human being for two lifetimes, yet I am still so arrogant.
Don’t do anything too smoothly, otherwise you will lose your composure.
And he is also a little obsessed with money. He is the kind of person who can't help but laugh when he hears the collision of coins.
Why doesn't he understand? Even if you have a huge fortune, it is just a fleeting thing.
Why can't he see through it? All things cannot be brought with you in life or taken away with you in death.
So if the two old men knew something underground, they would definitely not see their descendants being so incompetent.
But it’s a strange thing, and it seems that God deliberately wanted to get used to Hong Yanwu’s bad habits.
As if he didn't think he had enough money, he insisted on giving it to him in large quantities.
What does it mean to earn millions?
The best thing is that it allows him to earn money and get new investment targets, so he doesn't have to worry about how to spend the money.
Wait for him to spend the money happily, and he can watch the value of the things he bought double while lying down.
Think about it, buying a private house today is a matter of luck and is a sporadic transaction.
The prices of stamps, calligraphy and paintings, seal stones, and jades have already skyrocketed because Hong Yanwu bought too many.
Even if no one noticed that the treasures in the handicraft factory were almost bought up by Hong Yanwu.
It is not easy to satisfy such a wish.
This is enough to prove that God really loves Hong Yanwu as his own son.
How about giving him another opportunity to spend a lot of money like a duck in water after he just completed two clothing sales?
What's going on?
Hey, the country has just opened its mouth on antique trading.
It should be said that since the founding of the People's Republic of China, how to obtain foreign exchange has been a matter of vital importance to national construction.
The country has taken many measures to this end. In addition to vigorously developing export trade, encouraging overseas remittances, and using preferential policies to introduce foreign investment, it also develops the trading of tourism commodities and cultural relics.
But in terms of tourism products, state-owned units have not been doing very well.
Because we don’t understand the needs of foreign guests, we remain stuck in our ways.
The products designated by relevant departments are of single variety and rigid form, and are not popular with foreign guests.
There have even been cases where foreign guests complained that they could not buy satisfactory souvenirs.
In sharp contrast, the cultural relics store is doing a booming business.
Because the prices are not expensive and the products are of high quality, the cultural relics trade in the capital has been booming from the beginning.
Especially since the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the number of foreigners in the capital has increased.
Liulichang is a place where many well-known cultural relics shops gather. The transaction volume is rising day by day, and the task of earning foreign exchange is completed smoothly.
In view of this situation, around 1982, the government invested huge sums of money in a large-scale renovation of Liulichang Cultural Street.
It even went so far as to temporarily close most of its stores.
Until September 1984, all the renovation work was completed, and the original appearance of Ancient Culture Street was finally restored.
The cultural relics store will temporarily move to the Temple of Heaven Park, and the three stores of Yunguzhai, Baoguzhai and Qingyuntang will be moved back to Liulichang.
Six stores including Guanfuzhai, Moyuange, Yueyatang, Yunyuzhai, Cuizhenzhai and Zhenhuange that had been closed due to renovation construction were restored.
Two new sales stores, Dunhuage and Hongguangge, and a cultural relics acquisition sales department were also opened.
At that time, this incident caused great repercussions both at home and abroad.
It’s a pity that things backfired. After the Liulichang Cultural Street was renovated at such a high cost, it resumed business.
However, sales did not reach another peak as the government expected.
On the contrary, the scenery is no longer beautiful, and the business is getting dull day by day.
It turns out that within the past two years, everything has changed.
Due to the extremely rapid development of the private economy.
Not only did some antique stalls appear in the morning market, farmers' market and night market, but the trade of folk cultural relics began to sprout.
Even the rapid development of tourism products by Hong Yanwu and Zhaoqing has taken away a lot of consumer demand that originally belonged to Liulichang.
And just because their products are so popular, some people are copying them.
This is naturally a big impact on cultural relics stores. To a considerable extent, the business of cultural relics shops has been diluted.
After half a year, I saw that the business situation was getting worse and worse, and there was nothing I could do to save it.
After discussion, the competent department of the cultural relics store had no choice but to open an inner cabinet in Hongguang Pavilion for domestic collectors.
This means that Hong Yanwu actually helped himself by eliminating and attacking.
It is precisely because he has driven the rapid development of tourism products. While making money, he has also squeezed the country's business.
It actually forced the cultural relics store to open its doors to the outside world, and was finally willing to sell those precious treasures to the Chinese people.
And to be honest, because of the butterfly effect he caused.
The installation of cabinets in "Hongguang Pavilion" was half a year earlier than the original history, which directly reduced the loss of cultural relics to the outside world.
I have to say that this kid has made great contributions to the nation and the country, and he has done a great thing unintentionally.
At that time, the business methods and contents of this kind of inner cabinet were mainly based on two regulations.
First, when purchasing cultural relics for domestic sale, the buyer must hold a household register, work permit, or other documents that can prove his or her identity.
Second, if you buy cultural relics from more than 1795, which is more than the 60th year of Qianlong's reign.
You have to fill out a form and write a guarantee not to give it away or resell it to foreigners.
As for the price of the cultural relics mentioned, it is a great deal.
You must know that the cultural relics trade in the past was not open to the outside world, and the price was not driven up by Hong Yanwu at all.
And since no one wants them, the initial price cannot be set too high. It is even 10% lower than the price in 1978.
For example, a Yongzheng official kiln pastel bowl can only be bought for 350 yuan, and it must be of good quality.
If there are "collapses", "charges", or problems, you may even be able to buy them for a hundred or ten yuan.
Something like this will cost tens of millions in the future.
You may not necessarily buy something in very good condition, but that is really different.
What about "Jia Dao"? Of course it's a bit worse, basically dozens of yuan lower than the ones from "Yongqian".
The official kilns of "Tongguang" are even cheaper.
The 23cmx7cm plate and bowl is only 300, the 16cmx7cm is 120, the 10cmx5cm is 50, and the 8cmx3cm is 20.
As for "Guangmin", even if it is a big item, it is only over fifty.
There is no doubt that for anyone who is lucky enough to have access to a collection of cultural relics, the newly opened inner cabinet of the cultural relic store is like a huge treasure house in front of them.
Furthermore, this was one of the few legal channels for purchasing cultural relics at that time.
However, it must be said that although this change in "Hongguang Pavilion" was specially reported once by "Xinwen Lianbo" and appeared on the front page of "Beijing Evening News", it did not attract widespread attention.
Because even for those who love collecting.
It is not easy to decide to spend hundreds of yuan to buy a cultural relic
Don’t forget that at this time our ordinary people are still working hard to improve their material living standards.
After all, these things are beyond the necessities of life.
Even Teacher Ma, who often visits the cabinets of "Hongguang Pavilion", is the same.
Because according to his recollection in the program, although he often went there back then, he only went to look at it and bought very little.
Maybe eight out of ten times I go there, and one of them is to buy something.
In this way, the only exception is Hong Yanwu, who really thinks it is cheap.
I really wish I could move everything home.
So he worked hard and started taking care of the buyers of "Hongguang Pavilion" just like the first day he went there.
I bought more than 10,000 yuan of things in the morning, and asked Chen Liquan and Shui Qing to do some cleaning in the afternoon.
Since then, he has given full play to the advantages of his wide network of people.
Every day, several different people have to be arranged to help him scan the goods.
It’s actually quite simple to say, it’s just based on the price, you don’t even have to choose.
You can only buy at a good value, but you can never lose at a loss.
The "Hongguang Pavilion" has truly seen the purchasing power of domestic guests.
They discovered that several rich owners came to the store every day. It's easy to buy thousands or tens of thousands.
And there are old people, women, young people, intellectuals, workers, policemen, self-employed people, all kinds of people.
This makes them confused. Could it be that porcelain antiques have become such a widespread hobby?
But before they could figure it out, they had to worry about other things first.
Unknowingly, within a month, 30% of the tens of thousands of items in the inventory were gone.
If this continues, maybe there will be nothing left to sell in two months.
Then the price must be adjusted. If we don’t adjust the price, we will lose a lot of money.
Adjustable is even worse.
Because I don’t know why, this increase has attracted more people to buy it.
Shipping speed has doubled.
What’s the result? It’s not May Day yet, so there’s nothing for sale in the store.
On April 29, more than a dozen groups of particularly wealthy customers came in one day, each of them buying at least tens of thousands.
As a result, it was not time to get off work in the afternoon, and except for a few signature items on display, everything that could be sold in the store had been sold out.
The turnover that day also hit the highest value since the store opened, with a total of 378,000.
Later, "Hongguang Pavilion" was raided and sold out, so it had to temporarily close down.
After that, it was not until September that they re-allocated a batch of goods and opened.
But the quality of things is not as good as before, and the price is four times higher than before.
Fortunately, the transaction has finally found a balance, and the speed of shipments has finally begun to normalize.
Unfortunately, this normality is also an illusion.
Because of the accounting at the end of the month, "Hongguang Pavilion" discovered that all the goods sold were top-notch goods.
No one cares about the ones that are of similar age but of different quality.
So now they are in trouble again.
The good stuff is gone, and the bad stuff is in my hands again.
Will the price be reduced or not?
Hey, it’s really hard to decide...
