Chapter 280: The Inner Cabinet
The people of Beijing have always used the phrase "the new painting of the tree hut is not ancient, and this person must be the internal affairs office" to describe the nouveau riche who suddenly became rich.
But even if the real Ministry of Internal Affairs, Hong Yanwu's grandfather and grandmother, want to live, it is estimated that they can be angry to death by this "third grandson".
Not for anything else, all because Hong Yanwu's quality is too low.
It's been two lives, and it's still so floating.
You can't do anything too smoothly, and if you go well, you will lose your calmness.
And I'm a little obsessed with money.,Belong to the kind of people who can't help but laugh when they hear the collision of coins.。
Why didn't he understand? Even if he had a lot of money, it was just a passing cloud.
Why can't he see through it? Everything is not brought by life and not brought with death.
Therefore, if the two old people knew underground, they would definitely not be able to see their children and grandchildren so unsuccessful.
But it is also evil, but God deliberately wants to get used to Hong Yanwu's stinky problem.
As if he didn't think he had enough money, he insisted on giving him a lot of money.
What's it to make millions?
The best thing is that he earns money and gets a new investment target, so he doesn't have to worry about how to spend the money.
Wait for him to spend the money happily, and he can lie down and watch the value of what he buys double.
Think about it, you have to try your luck when buying a private house nowadays, and it is a sporadic transaction.
The prices of stamps, calligraphy and paintings, printed stones, jade, and Hong Yanwu bought too much, and the price has already skyrocketed.
Even no one noticed that the treasures of the handicraft factory were almost bought by Hong Yanwu.
How difficult it is to fulfill such a wish.
This is enough to prove that God really hurt Hong Yanwu as his own son.
Why didn't he just finish two clothing sales, and give him another chance to spend a lot of money like a fish in water?
What the hell is going on?
Hey, the daring country has just opened its mouth on the antiques trade.
It should be said that in fact, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, how to obtain foreign exchange has been a matter of great importance to national construction.
To this end, the state has adopted many means, in addition to vigorously developing export trade, encouraging overseas Chinese remittances, and using preferential policies to introduce foreign investment, it has also developed the trade in tourism commodities and cultural relics.
It's just that in terms of tourism products, state-owned units have not been doing very well.
Because they don't understand the needs of foreign guests, they are complacent.
The things designated by the relevant departments for production have a single variety and rigid form, and are not welcomed by foreign guests.
There have even been many cases of foreign guests complaining that they can't buy satisfactory souvenirs.
In stark contrast, the antiquities shop is doing a brisk business.
Because the price is not expensive and the quality of the merchants is high, the cultural relics trade in the capital has shown a thriving atmosphere from the beginning.
Especially since the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee, with the increase in foreigners in Beijing.
Liulichang, a place where many well-known cultural relics stores gather, has seen its transaction volume rise day by day, and the task of earning foreign exchange has been completed smoothly.
Therefore, in view of this situation, the government invested a huge amount of money to carry out a large-scale renovation and transformation of Liulichang Cultural Street around 1982.
For this reason, he even did not hesitate to temporarily suspend the operation of most stores.
It was not until September 1984 that the renovation work was completed, and the original appearance of the ancient culture street was finally restored.
The cultural relics store will be temporarily moved into the Temple of Heaven Park, and the three stores of Yungu Zhai, Bao Gu Zhai and Qingyuntang will be moved back to Liulichang.
Then the six stores of Guanfu Zhai, Moyuan Pavilion, Yue Ya Tang, Yun Yu Zhai, Cui Zhen Zhai and Zhenhuan Pavilion that were closed due to renovation construction were resumed.
It also opened two new sales stores of Dunhua Pavilion and Hongguang Pavilion and a cultural relics acquisition department.
At that time, this incident caused great repercussions both at home and abroad.
It's a pity that it backfired, and after paying such a big price to renovate the Liulichang Cultural Street, it resumed business.
However, sales did not reach another peak as the government expected.
On the contrary, the scenery is no longer there, and the business is getting lighter day by day.
It turns out that in the past two years, things have been different.
Due to the extremely rapid development of the private economy.
Not only did some antique stalls appear in the morning market, farmers' markets and night markets, but the folk cultural relics trade began to sprout.
It is the tourism commodities that Hong Yanwu and Zhaoqing have developed rapidly, and they have also taken away a lot of consumer demand that originally belonged to Liulichang.
And because of the popularity of their products, some people copy them.
This is naturally a big shock for the cultural relics store. To a considerable extent, it diluted the business of the antiquities store.
In this way, after half a year, seeing that the business situation is getting worse and worse, there is nothing to be done to save it.
After discussion, the competent department of the cultural relics store had no choice but to open an inner cabinet for domestic collectors in the Hongguang Pavilion.
In other words, Hong Yanwu actually beat himself and helped himself.
It is precisely because he has driven the rapid development of tourism commodities, and while making money, he has also squeezed the country's business.
Unexpectedly, the cultural relics store had to open its doors inward, and finally was willing to sell those cherished treasures to the Chinese people.
And to put it honestly, because of the butterfly effect he caused.
The "Hongguang Pavilion" set up an inner cabinet half a year earlier than the original history, which directly reduced the external loss of cultural relics.
I can't help but say that this kid has made a contribution to the nation and the country, and he has done a great thing unintentionally.
At that time, the business method and content of this inner cabinet were mainly based on two regulations.
First, when purchasing cultural relics for domestic sale, the purchaser must hold a household registration book, work permit, or other documents that can prove his identity.
The second is to purchase cultural relics and commodities that were more than 1795, that is, more than 60 years of Qianlong.
It is necessary to fill out a form and write a letter of guarantee that cannot be given away or resold to a foreigner.
As for the price of the cultural relics, it's a good deal.
You must know that in the past, the cultural relics trade was not opened to the inside, and the price was not speculated by Hong Yanwu at all.
And now because no one wants to open the inner cabinet, the initial price cannot be too high, and it is even lower than the price in 1978.
For example, a Yongzheng official kiln pastel bowl can be bought for three hundred and fifty yuan, and it has to be relatively good.
If there is a "collapse" or "rush", and if there is a problem, it may even be bought for 100 yuan.
Such a thing, in the future, will have to be tens of millions of dollars.
You may not be able to buy something in very good condition, which is really different.
Of course, it is a little worse, and it is basically dozens of yuan lower than that of "Yongqian."
The official kiln of "Tongguang" is cheaper.
The 23cmx7cm plate and bowl are only 300, the 16cmx7cm is 12, the 10cmx5cm is 50, and the 8cmx3cm is 20.
And the "light people", even if it is a large item, it is only fifty.
There is no doubt that for anyone who is fortunate enough to have access to the collection of antiquities, the newly opened inner cabinet of the antiquities store is like a huge treasure trove in front of them.
Moreover, it was also one of the few legal channels for purchasing cultural relics at that time.
However, it has to be said that although this change in the "Hongguang Pavilion" at that time was specially reported by the "News Network" and appeared on the front page of the "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 dollars on a cultural relic
Don't forget, at this time, our ordinary people are still trying to improve their material living standards.
And these things, after all, are things that are beyond the necessities of life.
Even Mr. Ma, who often goes to visit the inner cabinet of "Hongguang Pavilion", is the same.
Because according to his recollection on the show, although he often went back then, he just went to see it, and he still bought very little.
Maybe I went ten times or eight times, and one time was to buy something.
In this way, the only exception is Hong Yanwu, but he really thinks it's cheap.
I really want to move everything home.
So he was hollow out and began to take care of the purchase of the "Hongguang Pavilion" ***** as he was on the first day of his own visit.
In the morning, I bought more than 10,000 things, and in the afternoon, I asked Chen Liquan and Shui Qing to sweep it again.
Since then, he has taken full advantage of his wide network.
Every day, a few different people have to be arranged to help him sweep the goods.
It's actually very simple to say, it's nothing more than calculating according to the price, and you don't have to pick it.
It is only possible to buy value, and it is impossible to buy a loss.
And "Hongguang Pavilion" has really seen the purchasing power of domestic guests since then.
They found that there were a few big people in the store every day. Tens of thousands of dollars can be bought at every turn.
And the elderly, women, young and young, intellectuals, workers, policemen, self-employed, all kinds of people.
They can't figure it out, has porcelain antiques become such a popular hobby?
But before they could figure it out, they had to worry about something else.
Because unconsciously, before a month arrived, there were tens of thousands of things in the inventory, and they went to Sancheng unconsciously.
If it goes on like this, there will be nothing to sell in two months.
Then the price must be adjusted, and if the price is not adjusted, it will be a big loss.
Adjustable for the worse.
Because for some reason, this rise has attracted more people to buy.
Shipments have doubled the speed of shipments.
As it turned out, before May Day arrived, there was nothing to sell in the store.
On April 29, more than a dozen groups of particularly wealthy customers came a day, and everyone bought at least tens of thousands.
As a result, before the end of work in the afternoon, except for a few signature treasures on display, all the things that could be sold in the store have been bought.
The day's turnover was also the highest since the store opened, reaching 378,000.
After that, the "Hongguang Pavilion" was sold out due to a surprise attack and had to temporarily close down.
After that, it wasn't until September that they redeployed a batch of goods to open.
But the quality of the things is much worse than before, and the price is four times higher than before.
Fortunately, the transaction finally found a balance, and the speed of shipments finally began to normalize.
It's a pity that such normality is also an illusion.
Because of the monthly accounts, "Hongguang Pavilion" found that all the good things sold were top-notch.
No one cares about the recent age and the difference in quality.
So now they are in a dilemma again.
The good things are gone, and the second one is smashed again.
So is it a price reduction or not?
Hey, it's hard to decide......
