Chapter 300. The king of comic books
Not far away, a platform was erected at some point. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The stage is very high and very powerful, just like the high platform of singing.
A few people were busy, hanging a banner, and finally hung it up, only to see a line of big characters written on it, Luoyang comic book king, family clearance!
What do you mean?
Is it a fire sale comic book?
Can you afford to make such a big fuss?
Seeing that Lin Yi seemed to be a little puzzled, Wang Changlin nagged on the side: "See, this time it's the handiwork of a big player." A one-time sale of comic books that have been collected for more than 20 years. ā
Lin Yi asked: "Who is this comic book king in Luoyang?" ā
When Wang Changlin saw Lin Yi ask like this, he looked at him like a rare animal, and suddenly said, "Don't you sell comic books?" ā
Lin Yi then remembered that his identity was a "bookseller", so he shook his head and said, "I don't play much." ā
"No wonder, I haven't even heard of his name." Wang Changlin looks like a jack of all trades.
Then he carefully told Lin Yi who was the king of "comic books" in Luoyang City.
To say that this person, surnamed Pei, is the ninth in the family, so everyone calls him "Pei Jiu".
Pei Jiu worked in the Publishing Bureau around 90 and belonged to a small cadre in charge of the warehouse at that time, and it happened that the publishing of comic books was sluggish at that time, because children had already begun to read Japanese manga and cartoon books at that time, and a large number of new and old comic books were all piled up in the warehouse and could not be sold.
At this time, the leader of the publishing house was in a hurry, and wanted to clean up these things that occupied the inventory, so that some best-selling martial arts novels and romance novels could be sold. Therefore, he called on and mobilized the workers to actively find ways to sell these inventories.
At that time, some people even proposed to sell these comic strips directly to the scrapyard and once and for all. Although this Pei Jiu is a warehouseman, he has a lot of eyes, especially likes to drink and chat with some old friends at the second-hand book stall, and knows a little bit about the market of this villain's book, so he thinks this is a way to make a fortune.
So he borrowed about 10,000 yuan from his mother's family, and transported several boxes of old "villain books" from the fifties and sixties stored in the warehouse to his home at a price lower than the price of scrap.
At that time, he didn't realize that there was any collection, but he just regarded it as a kind of business, and when his children went to school or the family was short of money, he would take out a few boxes and sell them. At first, it was five cents a piece, but when there were more people who bought it, it grew to five cents a piece, and then those who were old in the fifties and sixties rose to five yuan a piece.
It was only at this time that Pei Jiu realized that he seemed to be doing something stupid, he felt that things like villain books could not fully show the charm of the painting itself, or he was visually fatigued or he was tempted by the immediate interest and did not see the future appreciation potential of "villain books", or he still naively thought that after selling them, he could easily buy them back.
And as the price of his villain book became higher and higher, and there were still people willing to ask for it, he realized that this kind of thing appreciated faster than stocks. At that time, people were crazy about stock speculation, and only Pei Jiu began to speculate on comic books.
Not only did he stop selling the hundreds of old editions of the villain books that he had left, but he also began to buy villain books from other sellers at high prices.
Those colleagues who used to sell books with him all laughed at him for being stupid, and his brain was in water, and you used to sell it for five yuan, but now you can buy it back for ten yuan. For example, "Mr. Dongguo", for example, "Chicken Feather Letter", and for example, the three-book set of "Great Changes in the Mountain Township......
Pei Jiu became a "fool", and was laughed at as "Pei Fool", and those who originally bought his villain book even rubbed it back and sold it back to him at a high price. Pei Jiu is tired of this, and he is even more stupid.
It wasn't until after 2000, when the price of villain books really exploded, that people really understood --- who was the fool!
In the fifties and sixties, the old version was first published---
"Mr. Dongguo" is 20,000 yuan.
"Great Changes in the Mountain Village" is a set of 60,000.
"Chicken Feather Letter" is 130,000 yuan.
ā¦ā¦
Pei Jiu became famous overnight, no longer "Pei Jiu", "Pei Fool", but "Pei Jiuye", and became a veritable "King of Comic Books". It is said that he currently has no less than 50,000 comic books in his collection, and the volumes are excellent, especially the old villain books in the 56s have 6,000 copies. All these villain books are worth hundreds of millions.
Relying on these villain books at hand, Pei Jiu bought low and sold high very cautiously, manipulating the market of Luoyang villain book trading like playing stocks. So much so that some people say that as long as Jiu Ye coughs, Luoyang's comic book trading indicators will drop by three times.
ā¦ā¦
Seeing that Wang Changlin boasted about this "Pei Jiuye" so amazingly, Lin Yi smiled and said, since he is so powerful, how can he get rid of all the collections now?
Wang Changlin smiled and said, you don't understand this. First, today's comic book market has reached a bottleneck, not that players don't know, it's too hot, it's a bit empty. Jiu Ye is an old speculator, of course he understands this, and it can even be said that the price of many comic books was stirred up by his old man. For example, the book "Chicken Feather Letter", he collected it all over the country back then, no matter how much money he wanted. It wasn't until the old version of the good condition was bought out that it was hoarded and became a blockbuster at the auction, selling for a sky-high price of 130,000. The devil knows how many more of these villain books he has in his warehouse. This price is too empty.
So, if you can play with books, don't jump into the pit of villain books now.
This is Wang Changlin's reminder to Lin Yi, but Lin Yi can only smile, but what he thinks of is that his old friend Guo Zixing doesn't know how many of these villain books he has in his hands, and he doesn't know what will happen in the future.
Then Wang Changlin said that Pei Jiuye didn't plan to sell these collections, after all, he had hidden them for more than 20 years and had some feelings, but it was too easy to buy and sell villain books to make money, relying on this he lived in a villa, drove a luxury car, and heard that he also had a little wife outside...... In short, he has everything that this man should have, and he has enjoyed everything he should enjoy. As long as you lack money, you can get rid of the collection at hand. What do you think, a copy of "Chicken Feather Letter" is more than 100,000 yuan, and if you take out a dozen or so books, isn't it million......
As the saying goes, the easier it is to earn the money, the faster it will be spent. Even if he has a lot of goods hidden by the ninth master, he can't withstand the toss of their family. Especially the two sons of the ninth master, they are famous in Luoyang City, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling. When he had no money, he took a few villain books out of his Lao Tzu's warehouse, put them on the gambling table, and put them on the gambling table, which were chips, and put them on the wine table, which was banknotes.
There must always be a limit to sitting and eating, and now his original collection of hundreds of millions of dollars has been tossed almost, and the old man has also figured it out, rather than those old people being secretly taken away by two unsuccessful sons, it is better to sell them all at once, and then take the money to make a long-term living, which can be regarded as supporting the family.
Lin Yi only understood when he heard this, it turned out that the reason why this ninth master "cleared the family" was because he had no choice but to prevent the so-called day and night prevention of family thieves, and it is estimated that his two sons also tossed him hard.
But immediately Lin Yi had another question, why didn't Jiu Ye take his collection to the auction house to auction it, but what kind of "big clearance" did he have here, it didn't seem to be up to grade.
As soon as Wang Changlin heard Lin Yi's words, he smiled directly, saying that you are a layman and you are really a layman.
First of all, you need to pay a deposit to go to the auction, and you have to pay a commission at the end of the auction, which is a lot of money. In addition, if you auction a large amount of money, you will be targeted by some people, and only those fools who have no way to be in the limelight will take it to auction; Secondly, Jiu Ye has been playing comic books for so many years, and is known as the "king of comic books", his name is not false, he basically has the information of big players all over the country, and he does not need to use the auction house at all to sell all the inventory on hand as quickly as possible; Finally, this is also the rule of playing comic books, old players want to clear their positions, and new and old players must come to cheer, which is the morality of the rivers and lakes, and it is also to pull each other and get a piece of the pie. In the future, I don't know who won't play, but I can continue to do so, and I will never be able to sell it in my hands.
After listening to Wang Changlin's words, Lin Yi knew that the water of the original comic book was so deep. I don't know if Lao Guo, who plays comic books, has been invited over.
Just as Lin Yi was thinking, he heard a voice shouting: "Lin Yi, Brother Lin, I'm here!" ā
Lin Yi looked up, damn, said Cao Cao Cao arrived, who else would it be if it wasn't Guo Zixing? ! (To be continued.) )
