Chapter 151: Gimmick
The semester has ended, and Cheng Wenge and Qian Aiguo seem to be used to following Huang Han and not playing crazy outside.
actually took Huang Han to practice the piano early every morning, and the two of them were boxing, zamasteping, and reading books at the door of the classroom.
Huang Han judged that these two eldest children really like to practice martial arts and are eager to become heroes like Guo Jing.
Of course, he cared about how the two eldest children did in the final exam, and on the way home after practicing, he asked, "Tell me about it, can you improve your final exam results by five places this time?"
Both of them feel good, because during this time, reading, reciting, silently writing, and doing application problems have had an effect.
Qian Aiguo said happily, "After five years of school, I can't remember the number of exams, and the test paper seems to have never been as simple as this time, and I can't answer any questions." ”
Cheng Wenge smiled and said, "I have taken the exam for six years, and I think this time I should be the best in the exam, and the test questions have been made, and I still have time to check it." ”
One of these two repeated a grade twice, and the other repeated a grade three times, and it really took five or six years to get to the fourth grade.
They are familiar with Huang Han, and they don't need to worry about face in front of Huang Han, and they don't shy away from the fact that they repeat grades.
Huang Han looked at the two repeaters who were a little swollen and quipped, "Yes, they all answered the questions, will they suddenly take the double hundred exam and become the first in the grade, and directly make your parents so excited that they become neurotics?"
Qian Aiguo was immediately embarrassed, and said, "Knowing how to do it doesn't mean that you can do it right! How can you score 100 points? But I think it should be appropriate to exceed 80 points!"
Cheng Wenge was full of confidence, and he said, "I think this time there should be a chance to take the test of ninety, at least the mathematics can reach ninety." ”
Qian Aiguo glared at Chengwen Pavilion and said, "You are really so sure!"
"Hey, hey, don't leave ten!"
"I, I'm afraid I can't compare to you this time. ”
"Hehe, don't think about it next time!"
"Cut, cow what? Wait! I'm going to surpass you in the fourth grade!"
"Haha, I'm waiting! By the way, it's been three days, did your mother help me buy a monkey ticket!"
"How can it be so easy? The monkey ticket is last year's goods, and the post office has long been sold out.
My mother said that our county post office didn't sell many monkey tickets in the first place, and now we ask people everywhere to buy them from traffickers.
It's no wonder, obviously eight cents of stamps, now people dare to ask for three cents, four cents, and some people lions open their mouths, directly ask for five cents!
My mother is still looking for something to see if it can be sold cheaper. ”
Chengwenge seemed to suddenly realize, and said, "No wonder, no wonder, in just one year, this monkey ticket has risen two or three times, and it may be worth it for ten years."
Qian Aiguo, you told your mother to help me buy it with your heart, and I will give you a few when I buy it!"
"You are the second brother, I should help you, how embarrassed to ask for your things. ”
"Don't be embarrassed, Huang Han said that this monkey ticket will be very valuable in the future, you can help me buy it to help me make money, I should give you some!"
Qian Aiguo saw that Chengwen Pavilion thought that the price of monkey tickets would rise, so he was willing to spend two or three times more to buy them, and said kindly
"That monkey ticket is actually worth eight cents, you can only send a letter, in case you don't buy it at all, and the price is dropped, you must not blame me!"
"Of course I won't complain to you, the twelve yuan was the pocket money I saved, and I was originally going to give it to Huang Han. ”
"How could Big Brother ask for your money!"
That's why I listened to Huang Han's words, and used this spare money to buy some monkey tickets to play around, and I don't care if I can make money or not. ”
"I'm relieved. My mother has already called several acquaintances from the post and telecommunications offices in the nearby county, and estimates that she will be able to get the monkey ticket in three or five days, which should not be too expensive. ”
Huang Han is just a layman, he is short-sighted, and he never recognizes the value of stamps, sparks, and cigarette labels, thinking that this is a fool.
What is a stamp? A printed matter is about the same as proof of postage payment, why is it worth a lot?
Why are so many zodiac stamps the price of the "black monkey" skyrocketing?
All the reasons for the rise that can be found are actually gimmicks to create hype, and there are people and funds to promote it, and the purpose is to make money!
Huang Han's teenage years are the year of the stamp myth, remembering the philatelic craze that began in the fifth grade of primary school.
One day, during class, the drawing teacher asked the students to go home and rummage through the old envelopes at home, and asked the students to bring the used stamps they found to the school to show them.
Immediately after that, the music teacher said the same thing again in class!
The students immediately talked about it, and the final result was that most of the students gave the stamps they found to the music teacher.
Because the teacher was a teacher training graduate who had just been assigned, and she once sang "The Olive Tree" during the school entertainment performance, and her classmates liked her.
When Huang Han was in junior high school, several peers from good families in his class saved money and went to the post office to queue up to buy stamp collections!
Did they make any money? It turned out that there was none.
They were all deceived, and you must know how heavy it was to spend dozens of dollars a year on stamps at that time.
The number of people who play with stamps is worse than those who play with stocks, and the number of people who make money is probably not more than one in a thousand, and the vast majority of them buy a number of stamps and put them in a drawer at home to sleep.
There are many stories of monkey stamps, and the fool is willing to spend 100 yuan to buy a stamp worth 8 cents, that is, he expects to sell it to a more stupid person at a price of 1,000 yuan, who knows that the one who spends 1,000 yuan is actually not stupid, because he sold it at a sky-high price of 15,000 yuan.
In the end, it turned out that those who spent more than 15,000 yuan to buy monkey tickets should be really stupid!
Because they are trapped at the pinnacle, whether they can be untied in this life depends on whether there is the best among fools to start at a higher price.
Buying a house with 900 yuan in 80 years can be worth 9 million after 36 years, which is really a million profits.
But if you take the monkey ticket to settle the account, it is not enough.
The monkey ticket worth eight cents in 80 years was sold for 16,000 yuan many years later, which is 200,000 times more than that.
Even so, Huang Han did not naively think that he would make a fortune if he bought many monkey tickets in his hands, and it would not be groundless for monkey tickets to go to heaven, how many shady scenes are there?
It is impossible for people to set off a heat wave of price increases, but the big money is made by an outsider.
The full-page monkey ticket in the 80s will be valued at 1.5 million after more than 30 years, which does not mean that this thing can be sold for so much money, so there has to be a local tyrant to make a move!
Huang Han didn't understand this thing, of course he wouldn't spend time and energy to try this luck, and casually said that letting Chengwen Pavilion spend the pocket money he saved to get dozens of pieces to hide at home was purely idle.
Facts have proved that in Sanshui County in Bayi, and even in the entire Yangzhou area, it is impossible to buy a lot of monkey tickets.
Qian's mother is a cadre of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, and it is not easy to find dozens of them at this time, and people who don't know how to do it may not even know where to look.
Because the postal market has not yet appeared, no one professionally pours stamps, they are all amateurs, and very few people play this thing, they are all exchanged and bought and sold between acquaintances.
In some years, there have been dozens of stamp sellers at the gate of the post office on East Street in Sanshui County, and a small stamp trading market has been spontaneously formed, which is popular.
In 2019, there was not a single stamp seller at the door.
It can be seen that the vast majority of people who want to make a fortune by collecting philately have woken up from their dreams and have lost their way.
In 1981, even if Huang Han could raise a few thousand yuan, he did not have the ability to buy tens of thousands of monkey tickets.
If you really buy so much, this will affect the historical process, maybe the copyists will not unite to fry the "black monkey", and people will not fry the "pig" instead?
Anyway, it's all the same thing, it's all eight-cent zodiac stamps, which one you want to fry, you can always make up a gimmick.
