"Brother Zhou, the stock market is a very complex issue, and it is impossible to explain it in one sentence or two. If you're interested, we'll talk about that later. Li Rui patiently explained, but found that Zhou Xuexue knew nothing about it, so he could only put this topic on hold for the time being. It's not that he is perfunctory, Manager Feng and Yang Jintong next to him are still waiting.

"Oh, good."

Zhou Xuexue came back to his senses and hurriedly continued. Li Rui explained a lot of words, to be honest, I didn't understand much, but I also understood a little, the stock market can make money.

Something that makes money, naturally, is very interested.

It's true that he is a cultural relics researcher and a cultural scholar, but scholars are also human beings, and they also have to live and socialize, and they have to spend money.

Money, no one doesn't like it.

"Well, I'm sorry, just now I suddenly remembered that I had some personal matters to talk to Li Rui, so I ......" Thinking that he had just muttered to Li Rui for a long time for the copper-smelling thing, he couldn't help but blush and get hot.

"Hah, it doesn't matter. Who doesn't have something private? Manager Feng laughed and said, making a big business, he is refreshed, and he is naturally not dissatisfied with a little delay.

Well.

Yang Jintong's mind is simpler, originally he was waiting to see the excitement, and the most important thing is time. Zhou Xuexue is also an expert consultant, often helping him identify antiques, waiting for him without lack of patience.

Li Rui also politely arched his hand to apologize. Then, secretly laughed, I didn't expect that Zhou Xuexue, who had a lively personality, would also blush.

……

Back in the hospitality room of the cultural relics store, Manager Feng personally poured tea for everyone, and the guests and hosts sat down. Zhou Xue and Yang Jintong were both silently tasting tea, and they knew that there were still many details to be discussed in this business. At this time, the opening of the mouth to find something to do is purely to delay other people's business.

"Little brother, the price list has not been sorted out, please be patient for a while." Manager Feng motioned for everyone to taste tea and explained.

"There's no hurry."

Li Rui said with a smile that hundreds of boxes of porcelain, and the registration of the staff against the price list one by one, does require a lot of energy.

Well.

Manager Feng smiled and nodded, but thought in his heart, you're not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry. With such a large amount of business, it is always uneasy not to implement it early.

"Well, little brother, what about the situation of the cultural relics store, I also said before, as a manager, I only have the right to manage, and the items have a price list to refer to, and I have no right to change it. So, if you buy a large amount of porcelain antiques at one time, I can't give you a discount! ”

Li Rui hurriedly continued: "I understand Manager Feng's difficulty, whatever price it should be!" Selling antiques is not selling cabbage, and there is no such thing as a large quantity being preferred. ”

But.

Li Rui is happy in his heart, Lao Tzu is now using the price of cabbage to buy antique porcelain, will he care about that little discount.

The price of antiques in cultural relics stores may be relatively high, but the rate of high-quality products is also much stronger than that of the private market, so buying antiques is efficient and saves time. Take the more than 100 boxes of porcelain selected this time, and replace them with those in the antique street, without a year and a half of searching, don't even think about it.

"Hey, that's good, that's good!"

Seeing Li Rui so refreshing, Manager Feng immediately felt a lot relieved, to be honest, he was really afraid that the other party would make a large amount of preferential request, and if he couldn't meet it, the business would be yellow.

"This ......" Manager Feng sat there for a long time, not knowing how to speak, and his expression seemed to be very embarrassed.

"Manager Feng, still have questions?" Li Rui looked puzzled.

"Uh."

Manager Feng groaned, his face embarrassed.

"Something to say." Looking at Manager Feng's twisted look, Li Rui understood that the other party must have a problem, so he said with a smile.

"This, then I'll say it directly, if there is anything wrong, please bear with me." Manager Feng was polite again before he spoke, "Little brother, how will your account be paid?" ”

How do I pay?

Now there is no Alipay, WeChat, of course, it is a bank transfer, which is a very obvious thing, and it needs to be specially asked.

Oh.

Li Rui quickly reacted that Manager Feng was not concerned about which payment method to use, but about whether he could pay.

"Cash, bank transfer, whatever Manager Feng likes. RMB, USD, whatever you want, ask for pounds sterling, Hong Kong dollars, I can get it for you when you spend some time. ”

Yes.

Manager Feng was dumbfounded, he originally wanted to test whether the other party was able to pay, but he didn't expect Li Rui to give such an answer.

Yang Jintong, who was sitting next to him leisurely drinking tea, was also slightly stunned, and his eyes were surprised. He doesn't lack RMB, but he doesn't have US dollars. Occasionally, when I need to use foreign currency, I send someone to buy it at a high price on the black market, and the quantity is not large, and it is difficult to buy more.

"Little brother, are you willing to pay in dollars?" Manager Feng's breathing was slightly short.

In 90 years, the country's total foreign exchange reserves were only more than $10 billion, which was very scarce, and the whole country was scratching their heads and trying to earn foreign exchange.

In a word.

U.S. dollar forex is a rarity.

An American professor once described the status of the dollar in the country in the 90s: If money can speak, the voice of the dollar is at least 50% higher than that of the yuan!

"Ha, there's nothing you don't want to do, you don't have to pay the dollar directly and save the trouble of exchanging." Li Rui said with a smile. He understands the preciousness of the dollar in this day and age.

So.

Li Rui took the initiative to bring up the topic of paying in US dollars and pounds, not as a joke, but to reassure Manager Feng in the most direct and rude way, so that the other party would understand that he had the ability to pay. Not only the renminbi, but also the scarce foreign exchange such as the US dollar and the British pound are no problem.

The results are surprisingly good.

Manager Feng was directly shocked by the dollar, and no longer worried about whether he could pay the bill.

"Okay, okay, I want dollars, I want dollars...... Manager Feng said repeatedly, a little overwhelmed with excitement. This is a joy on top of joy, not only did it make a big business, but also earned precious dollar foreign exchange.

……

About half an hour later, a young man knocked on the door, brought a large number of bills, and handed them directly to Manager Feng who was sitting in the main seat, and explained in a low voice.

"Little brother, these are registration forms, which clearly record the name, quantity, and price of porcelain antiques, and the number inside the antique store. Please take a look! Waiting for the young man to leave, Manager Feng stood up and placed a thick stack of registration forms in front of Li Rui.

Li Rui took the form and looked at it.

"Yongzheng ink color landscape picture wine glass, 13 pieces, unit price 100 yuan. Number: 611098570! ”

"Yongzheng Doucai River Pond Mandarin Duck Lying Foot Plate, 2 pieces, unit price 550 yuan. Number: 620199269! ”

"Qianlong kiln glazed string pattern bottle, 12 pieces, unit price 180 yuan. Item: 623907555! ”

"Yongzheng carmine red ground enamel color Jiuqiu small bowl, 6 pieces, unit price 1500 yuan. Number: 633987123! ”

"Kangxi blue and white cloud entwined branch lotus pattern Yutang spring bottle, 1 piece, the unit price is 720 yuan. Number: 609822517! ”

……

Really~~

It's all the price of cabbage!

Li Rui didn't finish reading the first registration form, so he sighed. A thick stack of tables, it takes at least an hour to look at them all, and I am too lazy to read them.

"Manager Feng, you can directly say the total quantity, and then give me a total price." Li Rui said.

"Don't check it out?"

Manager Feng asked stunned.

"I believe in the credibility of the antiquities store. Besides, Manager Feng also hopes to do long-term business instead of a one-shot deal. Li Rui said with a smile.

Hear the words.

Manager Feng smiled busily, and was pleasantly surprised, it seems that he will come again in the future.

"Okay, the little brother directly looked at the last two tables, a summary sheet, all kinds of bowls, cups and saucers, bottles, flower pots, Buddha statues, etc., a total of 3,691 pieces, with a total price of 2,783,350 yuan. The other is a list of precious antiques, which lists items with a unit price of more than 5,000 yuan. ”

Well.

Li Rui looked at it casually, and said exactly what he said to Manager Feng.

"Okay, if it's okay, there's still some procedures to go. The little brother should report his home address and ID number, and the antiquities store needs to keep a record of the purchase. ”

on this.

Li Rui didn't resist, and quickly reported it, afraid that the other party wouldn't hear it clearly, so he repeated it twice. Keep a good record of the archives, which is equivalent to the ID card of this batch of porcelain antiques.

"There are two copies of the registration form, one for you to keep and one for the store to keep on file. Both copies have official seals and the signature of the person who handles them, please check it with the little brother, and if there is no problem, you have to sign it. ”

"These are all seals, each signed one, and the signed seal will be affixed after the goods are inspected and locked to ensure that there will be no problems."

Li Rui continued to sign according to Manager Feng's guidance and signed his name hundreds of times. No way, more than 100 boxes of porcelain have to be sealed.

"Manager Feng, the payment is more than 2.783 million yuan, you want dollars, convert it." Li Rui said.

"At the official exchange rate?"

Manager Feng asked tentatively.

"Okay."

Li Rui smiled and nodded, the official exchange rate of the US dollar against the yuan was 4.78, but the US dollar was noisy to more than six yuan in the black market, and Manager Feng proposed to use the official exchange rate to take a big advantage. However, the biggest advantage was taken advantage of by Li Rui, and he didn't care about this small profit.

"Hey, okay. This year's exchange rate is 4.7838 yuan per dollar. 2,783,350 yuan, or $581,828. Manager Feng found the calculator out of nowhere and calculated it quickly.

"Register an account, I'll call the bank to transfer money. Do you have a phone here? Li Rui said.

"Yes, yes!"

Manager Feng said busily.

……

After more than ten minutes, the transfer was completed, and Manager Feng called the bank again to confirm the arrival of $580,000, and immediately relieved.
