Chapter 278: Commemorative Coin of the Sixth National Games
"Some things can soar in value within a few years, and some things may not rise much after a few decades, just like I do antiques, some antiques will appreciate in value within a few days after they are bought, and some will be bought back for a few months, and there will be no improvement, and even the price will drop, in short, everything is risky." Zhou Houming said that it is not easy to do a collection business.
"Haha, it's okay with you, keep it and wait for your son to take over in twenty years." Tie Zhu said jokingly.
"My nature is different from ordinary collections, a lot of what we do now are short-term transactions, short-term money out, and then look for other novelties, so as to maintain business, if you sit and wait for appreciation, just the store rent can close the whole store." Zhou Houming talked about this industry with a lot of feelings.
"It's not easy to do in any industry." Wu Hua was also deeply touched, and then asked Zhou Houming, "How many people can you arrange here?" ”
Zhou Houming didn't understand what Wu Hua meant for a while, and asked a little wrongly, "What kind of people?"
"Stupid, of course it's the person who exchanged commemorative coins, just like when we lined up to buy securities." Tie Zhu understood Wu Hua's meaning in seconds.
Zhou Houming suddenly realized, he remembered that Wu Hua had told him the trick of buying securities before, but he didn't react for a while.
"How many sets are you going to buy?" Zhou Houming asked.
"At least 200 sets before it makes sense." Wu Hua said.
"200 sets?" Tiezhu's eyes widened and exclaimed.
Zhou Houming understands Wu Hua's meaning, the face value of this set of commemorative coins is only three cents, if it appreciates in the future, even if it rises by dozens of yuan, it can earn back. I just don't know when it's going to go up.
"That's right, 200 sets, just wait for appreciation." Wu Hua said.
"When will it appreciate?" Tie Zhu asked curiously?
"How do I know, if I knew, I would have someone buy them all." Wu Hua smiled bitterly, in fact, according to his memory, the commemorative coins began to soar in 2008, and it has risen to more than 1,000 in 2015, that is to say, the span of real appreciation is 20 years. Fortunately, the price is not high, three cents per set, plus the special box is only one dollar, to be honest, the box is really more expensive than things, and the box alone costs seven cents.
"We have six people now, and if each person is limited to three sets, it will be at least 60 people, can you find 60 people?" Wu Hua asked.
"Don't you know what's the most in Shenzhen? It's no problem to leave it to me. Zhou Houming smiled and said confidently. ,
"Okay, tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, I will go to the Construction Bank to exchange and pay each of them a salary of 10 yuan." Wu Hua said.
"10 pieces? Do you want so much? Tie Zhu felt that five yuan was too much, Wu Hua was really generous.
"If you don't want them to take the commemorative coins away, you have to give something of higher value to attract them." Wu Hua has his own plans, and now people have no concept of commemorative coins, but if they don't pay them high wages, some people think that commemorative coins are good-looking, and they will inevitably take them home and keep them privately.
Zhou Houming nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it."
Eating a breakfast made a small way to make a fortune, which strengthened Song Zimo's inner thoughts, and also made him believe that Wu Hua could bring him good development.
In the afternoon of the next day, Zhou Houming found a large group of people from nowhere and gathered at the Pearl Square near the Construction Bank.
"You know how to do it, right?" Zhou Houming stood at the front of the crowd and spoke to more than 60 invited people.
"Yes." The crowd replied in unison, like a group of professional migrant workers.
"After a while, we will go over in batches, every group of five people, exchange it for commemorative coins and come back to me to receive a salary of 10 yuan, even if the task is over." Zhou Houming waved a thick stack of 10 yuan.
"Got it?" Zhou Houming shouted loudly.
"Understood."
"Okay, the first set begins."
Zhou Houming stood in the square, and the iron pillar Song Zimo was also pulled by him as a helper. A small table was set up on the side, and all the commemorative coins exchanged by the workers were handed over to them for safekeeping.
Soon, there were workers happily running back with commemorative coins, Zhou Houming stood in front of the table, carefully checked the commemorative coins in the box, and after making sure that there was no doubt, he paid them a salary of 10 yuan.
Looking at the 10 yuan that was easily obtained, the workers were very happy, thanked them very much, and did not forget to ask Zhou Houming to contact them for such activities in the future.
The 200 commemorative coins were quickly exchanged, Wu Hua stood in the shade of a tree not far away and did not show up, and now he exchanged 200 sets of commemorative coins, he still remembered what Ouyang Qing said about giving him 10 sets, so he walked towards the door of the Construction Bank.
"Mr. Ouyang, the speed is okay today." Wu Hua looked at the few commemorative coins in the carton and smiled.
Ouyang Qing was not surprised to see Wu Hua appear, he promised to give him 10 sets yesterday, so naturally he would not break his promise.
"If you don't come back, it's really gone." Ouyang Qing smiled.
Today they brought 300 sets of commemorative coins over, but they didn't expect to be sold out in a while.
Ouyang Qing took out ten sets of commemorative coins prepared in advance from the cardboard box, packed them in a bag, and then handed them to Wu Hua, and said, "Ten sets of commemorative coins can be regarded as a gift for you."
Ten sets of commemorative coins are only 10 yuan, but making Wu Hua's friend is far more precious than ten yuan. Ouyang Qing is a smart person, he knows how to invest in the early stage, and he knows how to be sophisticated.
Wu Hua didn't expect Ouyang Qing to make this move, he didn't expect it at all. But I already owe a lot of favors to take ten sets of commemorative coins from others, and I can't pay back other people's things for nothing, so Wu Hua said that he didn't agree to anything.
"Mr. Ouyang, it's really not good, this commemorative coin is not your own. You also have to exchange it with the bank, so you can give me a lot of favors, and I can't take it for nothing. Wu Hua excused himself and said.
Ouyang Qing was determined to give Wu Hua these ten sets of commemorative coins, and when he saw that Wu Hua refused to accept them, he sent a message and said: "Okay, if you don't accept it, then I won't give you this commemorative coin, and I won't be short of these ten yuan, I'll keep it for myself."
As he spoke, Ouyang Qing took the commemorative coin back.
Wu Hua suddenly felt embarrassed, Ouyang Qing said that there was no problem, he really didn't lack the ten yuan, but how could it sound so awkward, it seemed that he Wu Hua was short of the ten yuan.
"Mr. Ouyang, this is not a reason." Wu Hua was a little entangled, if he took it, he would owe someone a big favor, or a super big favor. Wu Hua is not worried that Ouyang Qing will come to the door in the future, if Ouyang Qing really needs help or cooperation in the future, he Wu Hua will not give up, just by virtue of his love for 10 sets of commemorative coins, he will also have to admit it, but now he does not need to give it away in vain, and this love is not very profound.
"You can do it, anyway, I'm talking ahead, whatever you want." Ouyang Qing resolutely did not back down.
In desperation, Wu Hua could only accept it, but he was thinking about how to return this favor.
After receiving Ouyang Qing's gift, Wu Hua did not leave immediately, but waited on the side for Ouyang Qing to exchange the last bit of commemorative coins. Occasionally, when no one came, Ouyang Qing would also say a few words to Wu Hua, which roughly meant asking Wu Hua about his recent development and direction, Wu Hua did not hide it, and told him about his experience during this period and the things he was about to go to Hong Kong, Wu Hua's idea was very simple, he was not showing off how capable he was, but he knew that Ouyang Qing was looking for an entry point to cooperate with him, Wu Hua talked so frankly, in order to let Ouyang Qing understand his strength and the industry he was in contact with, so that Ouyang Qing could find an entry point for cooperation.
At about five or six o'clock, the commemorative coins had basically been redeemed, Wu Hua saw that Ouyang Qing had a lot of research on antiques, and wanted to introduce Ouyang Qing to Zhou Houming, so he asked him to go to the ancient building together.
Back in the Jingu Building, Tiezhu Song Zimo and others were not in the store, according to Zhou Houming, several of them were pulled by Xiao Xiao to play in Xiaomeisha.
"Aren't you the boss of Yipinzhai?" Ouyang Qing was a little surprised to see Zhou Houming, at the last auction, Zhou Houming was the boss of Yipinzhai.
"It used to be a pinzhai, and then it was changed to a modern ancient building." Zhou Houming smiled, he was not familiar with Ouyang Qing, and he had only heard Wu Hua say that he had come to the Yipinzhai auction.
"I see, but the ancient building is also quite stylish, not only the name, but also the furnishings here are quite distinctive." Ouyang Qing looked at the ancient building again.
"Thank you for the compliment, it's all my master's credit." Zhou Houming has become modest, since he met Wu Hua, his attitude has changed a lot, and he always talks about Wu Hua's goodness, even if this store has proof of his own efforts, but he does not take credit.
"Your master? Isn't that even better than you? Ouyang Qing was quite curious about him, the master.
"My master is right in front of you, and you say that he is not powerful." Zhou Houming said with a smile.
"Your master is Xiaohua?" Ouyang Qing was surprised, he didn't expect Wu Hua to accept apprentices at a young age, and the decoration in this room was extraordinary, if it was really from Wu Hua's hand, it could only prove that Wu Hua's ability was too amazing.
"It's not a master, it's just that we usually communicate more and discuss together." Wu Hua didn't think that the apprentice was here for anything, he just wanted to treat Zhou Houming, but now that Zhou Houming is obedient, he is embarrassed to call himself a master everywhere.
"You young people are the safest and most capable I have ever seen." Ouyang Qing praised.
"Mr. Ouyang has won the prize." Zhou Houming was humble, and then asked: "I heard that Mr. has studied antiques quite a lot, and presumably Mr. also has a lot of treasures in his family?"
"I don't dare to say about research, I just like to tinker with some gadgets, and sometimes when I see what I like, I go down to the house and put it at home, and there is no specific direction for collecting."
