Chapter 69 The Stamp Business
After evening self-study, Ding Hongxing returned home, he thought that his parents would ask him about going to play football in the Jianggang team, but to his surprise, his parents didn't seem to have such a thing, but just urged him to rest early after washing.
Ding Hongxing quickly washed up and entered his room, and saw that Shen Fucai was still sitting on a chair and looking intently at a philatelic magazine.
Ding Hongxing sat down on the bed and said with a smile: "Brother Fucai, you work so hard!" ”
Shen Fucai sighed: "You don't need to work hard, you said that it may open next month, if you don't know how to do a good business if you are not familiar with the doorway in philately!" ”
Ding Hongxing got out of bed, opened his box, took out a thick stack of philatelic albums from it and said: "Brother Fucai, you have only read these philatelic magazines, and you have never seen many physical objects, so let you see the real ones now." ”
After speaking, Ding Hongxing opened the philatelic album, one by one to Shen Fucai told Shen Fucai what kind of stamps this is, what is the background of this stamp, he has the memory of two lifetimes, familiar with these stamps are like a backhand view, such as a number of treasures explained, Shen Fucai listened fascinated, he now knows that there are so many stories on the back of these colorful little pieces of paper, which combined with the explanation of the real thing, is much easier to accept than his simple reading.
I don't know how long it took to talk, Shen Shuzhen knocked on the door outside and said, "You two brothers are still muttering something, go to sleep, Hongxing, you have to go to school tomorrow." ”
Ding Hongxing looked at the alarm clock, it was almost twelve o'clock, he and Shen Fucai looked at each other and smiled, then went to bed and fell asleep.
The next morning, Ding Hongxing was awakened by the alarm clock, he quickly stopped the alarm clock, for fear of waking up Shen Fucai, but Shen Fucai had already woken up, Ding Hongxing whispered to him: "Brother Fucai, I will go to school first, you read at home, and you have to read more of those stamps and be familiar with these stamps." ”
Shen Fucai said: "Okay, you go!" ”
After Ding Hongxing hurriedly washed up, he went to school, came to the classroom, and there were still a few minutes before the morning self-study, Lu Chaohui whispered to him: "Tomorrow is Sunday, the people I should make an appointment over there have been appointments, what about you?" ”
Ding Hongxing saved at this time, it turned out that tomorrow would be Sunday, these days are busy, and time flies really fast. He said to Lu Chaohui: "I'm okay over there." ”
Lu Chaohui nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then gather at my house at eight o'clock tomorrow morning." ”
Ding Hongxing nodded and said, "Okay!" ”
Ding Hongxing said that there was no problem, in fact, he really didn't know if there was a problem, after the morning self-study, he asked Tian Jun, Wang Zhihua and others one by one if the matter was done, they all patted their chests and said that it was done, so Ding Hongxing asked them to go to Lu Chaohui's house for a meeting at eight o'clock tomorrow morning.
At noon and in the afternoon after school, Ding Hongxing did not go to Chen Jianxin and Chang Zheng, he went home directly, and told his cousin Shen Fucai some stamp knowledge, he wanted to make up for Shen Fucai's philatelic knowledge, otherwise this business would not be able to do.
Shen Fucai some basic philatelic knowledge is his own reading and understanding a lot, this day Ding Hongxing is mainly relying on his previous impressions, some of the appreciation potential of stamps, such as monkey stamps, Mei Lanfang stage art, the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China stamps, wenge stamps and some scarce circulation of commemorative and special stamp sheetlets, etc.
Ding Hongxing also focused on the difference between the original stamps and the reprinted stamps in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, so that Shen Fucai would not be fooled, because the original circulation of these stamps was very small, and the circulation of reprinted stamps was much larger, so although the two were almost identical in appearance, their value was very different, so some people used reprinted tickets to deceive people, and sold a few cents a set of reprinted stamps to others at a price of tens of yuan.
When talking about this, Ding Hongxing couldn't help but think of Yang Lianzhong, the difference between the original ticket and the reprint ticket was told to him by Yang Lianzhong, and it was very detailed at the time, so he was very impressed. Now I don't know what happened to Yang Lianzhong's lover, there is no mobile phone contact in this era, which is really inconvenient.
Ding Hongxing's philatelic album has a lot of stamps issued in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, both original and reprinted, these are basically bought by him from Yang Lianzhong, and the reprints were bought when he was more than ten years old, at that time he had no money, only could afford to buy reprints, Yang Lianzhong never had to reprint stamps to pretend to be the original stamps to fool him, the price was very reasonable, which made him know Yang Lianzhong's character, and his existing original stamps were bought after he was reborn, he used these two stamps to explain to Shen Fucai the two stamps in paper, Subtle differences in inks and printing.
Shen Fucai is a very smart person, Ding Hongxing basically knows what he said, and after Ding Hongxing went home at night, he randomly took a few sets of original tickets and reprints that looked exactly the same for Shen Fucai to identify, and he accurately identified them all.
On Saturday night, Ding Hongxing didn't go to self-study at night, so he used this night to teach Shen Fucai a lot of philatelic knowledge, but some of the things he talked about also made Shen Fucai a little puzzled, he asked Ding Hongxing, if the stamps he pointed out in particular were only in and out, then how would this business be done? Where do the profits come from?
Ding Hongxing understands that these things that he sued Shen Fucai are indeed a little different from the general business experience, and the general business economy can be sold with a profit of one or two percent, but he can't tell Shen Fucai that he is reborn, knowing that the future increase of these stamps is dozens or even hundreds of times, he can only tell Shen Fucai in general, the appreciation potential of these stamps is too great, it is best to stock up, and these stamps are only a small part of the vast stamps. It will not affect the overall profit.
Although Shen Fucai still has some doubts, but also accepted Ding Hongxing's explanation, from the philatelic magazines he read today, he can also see that Ding Hongxing pointed out that these stamps are indeed favored by people, the appreciation potential is indeed large, there is a value to be hoarded.
After these two days of study, Shen Fucai also had an unprecedented interest in philately, he had not been in contact with philately before only due to family circumstances, but these days reading philatelic magazines, he fell in love with these small pieces of paper that carried many stories, and also saw the huge business opportunities contained in these small pieces of paper, he believed that this was the opportunity for him to change his fate, and he would never let go of this opportunity!
