Seeing the archway of the Jiaotong Road Market, the plaques of "Build the Economy" on the left, "Prosperous Market" on the right, and the Jiangcheng cultural relics store are right in front of you. Since Sun Jian passed by Baoshan with his sister, he returned empty-handed and wasted everything he had.
"Yuanyuan, big brother will buy you a small gift!"
In October last year and early this year, "Sun's Fountain Pen Copybook" was printed in 300,000 copies and 700,000 copies respectively, with a copyright fee of 98,000 yuan (before tax) and earmarked funds. Sun Jian entered the Jiangcheng cultural relics store for the second time. Each time, as if he had done something bad, he came and left in a hurry, wearing sunglasses, and spent a huge sum of 18,700 yuan to buy thirty-four paintings and calligraphy works by contemporary famous artists.
Not to be missed.
When practicing calligraphy, I carefully observed and learned from it. After more than four months, my calligraphy level has improved significantly, and my appreciation ability has also improved.
In sharp contrast to the crowds of shoppers on the streets, the Jiangcheng cultural relics store was still crowded.
After passing the Four Treasures Counter and the calligraphy and painting counter in the lobby outside, Sun Jian inadvertently glanced at the calligraphy and painting counter. The male salesman he met for the first time was sitting on a chair reading a newspaper. The hanging paintings and calligraphy did not escape his eyes, and his eyes lit up.
Sun Yuan looked left and right, following behind his eldest brother, with a curious look on his face.
The right side of the shop inside is the jade and jewelry counter, and the left side is the counter for handicrafts, porcelain and lacquerware, with a dazzling array of products.
"Comrade, show us this white jade pendant?"
In the jade counter, pieces of white, cyan, bluish-white, green and yellow Hetian jade lie on the purple corduroy cloth. Under the light, they are crystal clear and colorful. The price is clearly marked, from forty-five yuan to two hundred. In the eyes of ordinary citizens, it is ridiculously expensive, but in Sun Jian's eyes, it is like a cabbage price, just like using counterfeit money to buy something in the hands of a blind man, and he feels ashamed inside.
Citizens who got rich first would rather spend fifty-six yuan and eighty cents per gram to buy gold rings or gold necklaces than buy Hetian jade that costs about one hundred yuan a piece.
When ordinary people understand that gold is valuable and jade is priceless, the price of Hotan jade will be ten times or even a hundred times more than that of a gold ring.
You can make a small fortune by buying a few pieces of high-quality Hetian jade and keeping them for decades.
At the beginning of the year, I walked out of Qiming Bookstore on Hangzhan Road and spent 2,730 yuan on the black market of stamps on Hangzhan Road. I bought one edition of Geng-Shen Monkey stamps and four sets of Geng-Shen Monkey stamps from two stamp owners. Souvenir sheets, seven Gengshen Year monkey stamps and a set of Mei Lanfang souvenir sheets and other stamps.
In just over four months, the Gengshen Year Monkey Ticket has increased by more than 30%, and there are more and more wealthy people.
In mid-January, I bought a "1985 Stamp Annual Album" at the Post and Telecommunications Office on Hangzhan Road. I had all the special stamps and commemorative stamps issued in 1985, and made reservations for all the stamps and "1986 stamps". 1986 Stamp Annual Album" (High-end Album).
At the black market in front of the Post Office, I purchased the "1980 Stamp Album" to the "1984 Stamp Album".
Stamp collecting is easy to become addicted, especially for reborn people like Sun Jian who have spare money and know the huge room for appreciation.
Losing one’s mind by playing with things!
The purchase of these stamp albums was for Sun Jia. After rebirth, Sun Jian had no interest in collecting stamps. He purchased the Gengshen Monkey stamps and Mei Lanfang souvenirs purely to make money!
Ordinary people collect stamps as a hobby, while stamp dealers do it to make money.
The first group of people who got rich were all smart people. Depositing money in the bank meant depreciation. Within twenty years, collecting Hetian jade and Burmese jade became popular, and stakeholders added fuel to the fire. A piece of Hetian mutton-fat white jade or glass produced in Burma, Imperial Green has been sold for millions to tens of millions of yuan.
Collect a few pieces and sell them to these rich people.
"You two need to be careful, lest you break it!"
The middle-aged female saleswoman saw that although Sun Jian and his sister were young, they were both wearing glacier down jackets and came from unusual families. The young man took his sister and went straight to the jade counter. Seeing jade worth one or two hundred yuan, she ordered the most expensive one. The white jade pendant has a calm expression, and he has seen the world at a glance.
Jade has a high hardness and can easily crack after being hit. Although the cracks are not visible to the naked eye, they greatly damage its perfection and collection value.
"Yuanyuan, do you like it?"
"Brother, it's too expensive!"
Sun Yuan glanced at the sign of the mutton-fat jade pendant, which read: one hundred and ninety-six yuan and five cents. His parents only earned more than one hundred and eighty yuan a month. He was shocked and did not dare to pick it up for fear of breaking it.
"Yuanyuan, remember, in the eyes of big brother, nothing in this world is more precious than you!"
Brother...
A layer of mist suddenly appeared in front of Sun Yuan's eyes.
"Comrade, I bought it."
"Young man, go and pay the money first!"
The saleswoman felt that young Sun Jian's words were ridiculous, he did not know his abilities, and his attitude was blunt.
"Comrade, don't bully young people into poverty. I bought the remaining two pieces of white jade, three pieces of jasper and the five pieces of jadeite in this counter. Let's issue a ticket!"
"Brother!"
The aunt's bad attitude hurt the elder brother's self-esteem, and she wanted to persuade him not to be angry.
"Comrade?"
When the saleswoman saw the situation, she was not worried that Sun Jian would not be able to pay, but she was worried that the other party's parents would come to argue with him.
"Comrade, issue a ticket!"
Holding the payment ledger and looking at the surprised look of the female saleswoman, Sun Jian came to the checkout counter, took out a large bundle from his backpack, paid 2,138 yuan, took away the 11-page invoice, and handed over 10 pieces of cash. A white invoice was handed to the saleswoman, and eleven velvet bags and eleven jade appraisal certificates were taken from her hands. Without looking at it carefully, he put it into the bag, without saying hello to the saleswoman, and took his sister out. Heritage store.
When the cold wind blew, Sun Jian breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, he was worried that the saleswoman wouldn't sell him so many pieces, but he was also grateful to the other party for being rude, so as not to buy them piece by piece, too many times, which would attract people's attention.
After the publication of "Sun's Fountain Pen Copybook" and the birth of Qiming Bookstore in Gangcheng Store, Sun Jian also figured out that earmarked funds should be earmarked. Rather than benefiting outsiders, it would be better to buy these calligraphy and painting works by celebrities at cabbage prices in advance and wait for them later. Sell it to rich people a thousand times or ten thousand times, take it from the people and use it for the people, and end the cause and effect of the reborn person leaking the secrets of heaven.
Sun Jian would not wear these jade stones, but that didn't mean that Sun Mu, Sun Yuan, Bi Xiaoyun and Sun Jia didn't like these smooth, round and crystal clear jade stones. They took the opportunity to buy one for them and give it to them later.
Forget it about family heirlooms!
When I was here, I had too much money to spend, but when I left, future generations would not be able to keep their wealth, and no matter how many family heirlooms they had, they would be in vain.
"Brother, don't be angry."
"Yuanyuan, your eldest brother is well-informed, how can you be angry? Don't tell your parents or outsiders what happened today. When your parents ask, just tell them that your eldest brother gave you a New Year gift. I will also give it to your mother when she celebrates her fiftieth birthday. One piece for mom."
Standing in a place with few people, Sun Jian took out a red rope from the velvet bag, put on the suet jade pendant, and put it on his sister's neck. In his previous life, he also bought a piece of suet for Bi Xiaoyun and Sun Jia. For jade pendants, I saw a video of the knotting technique on the Internet, and I know how to do it at a glance.
"Thank you, brother!"
What young girl doesn’t like this kind of crystal clear mutton-fat jade? Sun Yuan put the mutton-fat jade pendant on her chest. It was the most precious gift given to her by her eldest brother, and she would cherish it throughout her life.
"Yuanyuan, don't take your external possessions too seriously! Knowledge changes your destiny. When will you gain wisdom one day? It will be easy to get these valuable external possessions!"
Sun Jian saw his sister's cautious manner for fear of damaging the mutton-fat jade pendant, and taught her some principles of life.
"Brother, I will study hard!"
