Chapter 176: Preparing for a Picnic
Chenchen also took out six yuan and four cents from his pocket and bought a full page. She wasn't interested in philately, she just saw Li Liang buy so much, and she thought it was fun and bought one.
Wang Chao's pocket money was not much, only five cents in his pocket, and he bought six scattered ones.
Li Liang took the wrapped stamp from Miss Guo's hand, took out a full page from it and handed it to Wang Chao.
Wang Chao waved his hand again and again and said, "Liangzi, just give me the scattered ones in your hand!"
Wang Chao bought stamps purely to write letters with Zeng Xi, and did not care whether the stamps were full-page or not.
"Okay!" Li Liang gave Wang Chao the 50 scattered tickets, and then stuffed one for Chenchen.
In another thirty years, just a full page of this monkey ticket will sell more than a million yuan. I have a dozen or so in my hand, and I can live comfortably even if I don't do anything.
Li Liang rubbed the face of the monkey ticket in his hand, the first monkey ticket issued in 1980 was engraved and printed, and the hair on the monkey on the face of the ticket was as brilliant as real fur in the sun.
In later generations, as the price of monkey tickets continued to rise, the counterfeiting of monkey tickets became more and more serious.
Its glowing face has become an important basis for identifying the authenticity of Gengshen monkeys.
Historically, the Monkey Ticket has experienced several large price fluctuations, and each of its price fluctuations has been accompanied by changes in the postal market.
From 1984 to 1986, the price of monkey tickets soared from about 3 yuan to 30 yuan, and China's philatelic market boomed for the first time. Queues to buy stamps are everywhere throughout the country.
At the end of 1990, the price of monkey tickets rose from 70 yuan to around 240 yuan, starting a round of postal market in 1991.
In the autumn of 1996, the price of a single monkey ticket soared from about 300 yuan to 1,100 yuan, which triggered a round of magnificent postal market in 1997.
Since the second half of 1997, monkey tickets have been falling, and since then the postal market has also entered a 10-year downturn.
At the end of 2005, the monkey ticket rebounded again, and in April 2010, the transaction price of a single monkey ticket was 8,692 yuan, and the transaction price of the full-page monkey ticket reached 905,000 yuan.
In March 2011, the transaction price of a single monkey ticket was 12,084 yuan. In 2016, the market valuation of the 1980 version of the Year of the Monkey Zodiac stamps was as high as 1.5 million yuan.
Of course, these specific time points and prices are not clear to Li Liang. The only thing he can be sure of now is that the monkey ticket will definitely appreciate in the future, and the strength is not small.
Coming out of the post office, Li Liang smiled and proposed: "Chenchen, Chaozi, how about we go to the river for a picnic in the afternoon?"
"Okay!"
"It's just the three of us? It's not fun if there are fewer people! And it's a little late today, so we won't be able to play for long!" this is what Wang Chao said.
It did take some time to buy stamps at the post office, and it should be past three o'clock in the afternoon!
"The picnic is to ask for as many people as possible! In this case, let's go separately and find people, and come to my house at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, what do you think?" Li Liang proposed.
"Good!"
"Okay!"
Chenchen and Wang Chao happily agreed.
"Then let's go buy food and drink now!"
When you go out for a picnic, you have to buy more food and drink, and it's fun to eat and drink!
"When we go to call someone, just let the people who are willing to go bring some food from home. Liangzi, you've spent a lot of money today, so forget it!" Chen Chen persuaded.
Wang Chao also echoed and said: "Yes, Liangzi, you just spent a hundred yuan to buy stamps, so don't break the bank!"
Li Liang and the two of them thought differently, they lived again, and bought monkey tickets only occasionally. Life is not just about reading books and making money, there are many, many more meaningful things.
He felt that a picnic was a meaningful thing that he could remember for years to come.
"Let's go, listen to me!" Li Liang insisted.
Since Li Liang insisted on breaking the bank, Chen Chen and Wang Chao didn't have too many excuses!
The three teenagers happily went to the sales department of the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Auntie, bring me ten bottles of canned oranges!
There are also two catties of spiced melon seeds, two catties of original sunflower seeds, one catty of peach crisp, one catty of orchid roots, and one catty of orchid beans!"
"Auntie, do you have any words to Mei?
And a pound of white rabbit toffee!"
"Auntie, do you have any fresh fruit?"
The three of them bought a lot of food, and it cost Li Liang nearly ten yuan to unite!
The aunt of the sales department of the supply and marketing cooperatives was frightened by the three teenagers, even during the Chinese New Year, it was rare to buy so many snacks at one time.
She deliberately took an empty snakeskin bag and helped Li Liang pack their things!
"It's so heavy!"
Wang Chao turned the bulging snakeskin bag, it was so heavy!
"Chaozi, let's carry it together!"
"Yes!"
Chenchen helped Li Liang get the wrapped stamps. Li Liang and Wang Chao carried a big bag of food home!
In the evening, Wang Xiulan and her family came back from work in the textile factory and saw a lot of snacks bought by their son, but the two did not say anything. The family conditions are good, and her son's grades are also good, so Wang Xiulan will not stop her when she goes out to relax on the weekend.
"Son, if your pocket money is enough, your mother will give you another ten yuan!" Wang Xiulan took out ten yuan from the drawer in the house and gave it to her son.
Li Liang took the money and said with a smile: "Mom, you are so good!"
Sister Li Meng deliberately said jealously on the side: "Mom, my pocket money is not enough!"
"Okay, mom will give you ten yuan too!" Wang Xiulan said with a smile.
"Where is ten yuan enough, Liangzi has so many for a small child, I want at least twenty!" Li Meng said deliberately.
"Okay! Here you go!"
Li Shuangzhu watched Li Liang and Li Meng play treasure on the sofa, happiness is like flowers!
The construction of the family's house has already begun, and everything is done according to the design plan determined by Li Liang and Zou Guangguang. 750 square meters of land, 150 square meters of yard reserved, the rest of the building of a three-story frame structure reinforced concrete house.
This project is controlled by Zou Guangguang, and as the company's first housing project, Jian'an Company attaches great importance to it.
Under Wang Fagen's control, Jian'an Company bought a large piece of red cloth 10 meters long and 40 centimeters wide from the department store. The residential project of the cement factory Jian'an Company mentioned above has started in a good time, and two tall and straight bamboos are hung horizontally in front of Li Liang's new house.
Li Shuangzhu will go over to take a look when he has time during this time, and as the framework of the first floor gradually takes shape, the money on the multiple anonymous passbooks in the hands of his wife Wang Xiulan is spent like flowing water!
"Sister, are you going to work tomorrow?" asked Li Liang.
"No, it's rare to have a day off on the weekend!" Li Meng said.
The nature of their work as nurses makes it difficult for them to take regular holidays off.
"Then how about going to the river with us for a picnic tomorrow?" Li Liang said, "Chenchen and their brothers and sisters will also go!"
That means Zhang Meng will go too!
Wang Xiulan and Li Shuangzhu didn't hear the subtext in their son's words, but Li Meng heard it!
"Okay, I'll see the situation, if there's nothing to do tomorrow, I'll go!", you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
