Money is spent so fast!

rented a house, and the rent for three months was a total of 4,350 yuan.

I went directly to the local network operator and spent 1,280 yuan to pay a year's network fee, so that the landlord could cooperate with the staff to connect as soon as possible.

5,630 yuan is gone in the morning, if you let your parents know, you will definitely pick up a stick and have a doubles match for your parents.

The two of them together, a month's salary is only about 2400, if you know that you have spent the equivalent of more than two months of their salary, then you must not be mad?

Therefore, you must explain to your parents after the game company determines that you can make money, and when you can really make money, they can avoid running away.

Rental and Internet problems solved, take a car to the city at exactly 11 o'clock.

Ren Bufan arrived at the gallery and found that there were no customers at this point in time, and several waiters were eating fast food.

"Yo, are you here?" Seeing him enter the gallery, the waiter who had entertained him before immediately put down his chopsticks and walked over directly and said with a smile, "Come and sit here first, I'll call the boss." ”

"Oh!" Ren nodded, casually glancing at their badges.

When I came here before, I didn't pay attention to them at all.

The waitress who entertained him was called Wang Yuan, and the other two waitresses next to him were named Zhao Ning and Huang Lin.

Sitting near the gallery cash register, watching Wang Yuan finish the call.

About fifteen or sixteen minutes later, the old man appeared at the door.

"Boss, that little brother has arrived. Wang Yuan hurried over to report.

"Hmm!" The old man's gaze fell on Ren Bufan and nodded.

Ren Bufan stood up and walked up to the old man: "I'm here!" I also brought some paintings, you can see if there is a so-called artistic conception." ”

"Go upstairs and say. The old man turned and went straight to the stairs.

Ren Bufan hurriedly followed, and followed him to the second floor, where he spoke yesterday.

When he arrived at the table, Ren Bufan opened his backpack, carefully took out the paintings, and put them on the table.

The old man casually reached out and picked up one and slowly opened it, it was dusk in the village.

Upon closer inspection, a smile appeared in his eyes, but he did not speak.

Not sure what he meant, Ren Bufan asked him to look at other paintings.

The old man rarely opened them one by one seriously and read them carefully, during which he looked at Ren Bufan thoughtfully.

When the old man finished reading a total of fourteen paintings, Ren Bufan stared at him nervously, waiting for him to speak.

The old man closed his eyes and thought for a moment, pulled a chair and sat down, looked at Ren Bufan and said: "Sure enough, it is a little bit clear, you do have a talent in painting, and there is a lot of room for appreciation! These paintings are all okay, and there is a world of difference from the undoubted paintings before." ”

"Can you sell it for money?" Ren Bufan was concerned about this question.

The old man lifted Erlang's legs and shook them, and said, "Then it depends on what kind of cooperation you want to use." ”

"How?"

"Although there are still flaws in your painting, at least it has more artistic conception, and the painting skills are quite good. The old man said, "Of course, whether you can make money or not depends on whether there are customers who appreciate your paintings." I'm giving you a few options here that you can think about. ”

"What option?"

"The first way is that you put the painting with me and I will sell it to you. This is the simplest, most risk-free, most common, and most secure way for our gallery to work together. You can hang the painting with me for a period of time, if it sells well, we will continue to cooperate deeply, if it is not good, you can take back the work. We don't need any investment on either side, and as for the share of the sale of the work, you get 60%, and I get 400%! That is to say, if your painting is sold for 1,000, you get 600, I get 400, if it sells for 10,000, you get 6,000, I get 4,000! The more you sell, the more you share. However, it is still difficult for newcomers' paintings to sell for a high price. ”

Ren Bufan thought for a moment: "What about the second way?"

"The second way is agency. We represent you and take care of the selection, promotion and sale of your work. I will be responsible for finding critics, opening art exhibitions, and making art albums for you. You only need to give us a purchase price during the period of representation, and the work will be owned by the gallery, and you don't have to ask how much it will be sold. For example, if I buy one of your paintings for 500 yuan, even if I sell it for 50,000 yuan, it has nothing to do with you. However, your fame will slowly build through the collaboration, with a contract period of at least one year and at least 10 excellent works. ”

"Are there any other options?"

"Yes! You can sign a contract with our gallery. However, after signing the contract, we can only cooperate with our gallery. Of course, at the moment, we are the only family in the city, so there is no need to worry about this. We usually buy a batch of excellent paintings from you every year, and assign production tasks from time to time. If the customer is not satisfied, the work will be invalidated, and there will be no share. If you sell the work, you will take 7 percent, and we will take 3 percent, and the contract will be at least three years. The old man said slowly, "Among the three options, you can think about it and choose any one." No matter how you work together, it's good for you!"

Ren Bufan lowered his head and thought for a while: "It is definitely impossible to sign a contract, I have a lot of my own things to do." As for the agent, I also have to sign a one-year contract......"

"In this way, if I don't have a contract now, I can also buy paintings from you as an agent first, which can be regarded as supporting new artists. However, the price of each painting will not be very high. And it doesn't matter how much we sell after the buyout. "Of course, it is difficult for newcomers' paintings to sell for a high price, so you can try them first, and then decide which method to choose." ”

"Then if I want to sell these paintings, how much will you charge for a pair?" Ren Bufan asked.

The old man raised his right hand and stretched out five fingers: "500 yuan a piece!"

500 pieces, 10 pieces is 5000! Ren Bufan really didn't expect that a painting like himself could sell for 500?

No, his purchase price is 500, which means that the actual value is more than that. If he didn't make a profit, how could he possibly do it?

But in this case, I don't know how long it will take to sell it, and I don't know how much I can sell.

I now need a channel where I can get money quickly......

After thinking about it for a while, I finally decided: "In this way, I want to sell five oil paintings on sale." Then the rest is sold to you on an agent basis. ”

"Yes. The old man smiled, "Let's try the water first, and then decide the way to cooperate according to the customer's reaction to your work, which is the right decision." So these five oil paintings will be sold in our gallery first, and I will buy the other nine ink landscape paintings for 500 pieces, a total of 4,500 yuan, do I need to transfer or cash?"

I don't have a bank card. ”

"It's more convenient to get a card early. The old man said, "Would you like to stay here in the afternoon and see if your paintings are appreciated?"

"No, I still have things to do!" Ren Bufan shook his head, "If you can, I hope to get the money as soon as possible." ”

"Okay, but you have to leave a phone number and ID card for me to confirm, we have to record the artist's information, otherwise how can we sell it?"

Ren Bufan immediately took out his ID card and recorded his name and address to the old man, and at the same time informed him of his mobile phone number.

After the registration was completed, the old man called Wang Yuan up.

"Boss!" Wang Yuan walked up to the old man and bowed respectfully.

"Give him 4,500 yuan for the purchase of these paintings! Then hang them up and see how the guests react in the afternoon. ”

"Okay boss!" Wang Yuan immediately put away the painting and carefully rolled it up.

Ren Bufan followed Wang Yuan downstairs, and when he arrived at the cashier, Zhao Ning and Huang Lin greeted him: "What's the situation?"

"The boss said to frame these paintings and hang them up to see how customers react in the afternoon. Wang Yuan handed the painting to them, "Be careful, don't break it." ”

"Is this little ghost's painting really going to be sold in our gallery?, can it be sold?" Zhao Ning glanced at Ren Bufan, thinking to himself, what is the situation with the boss?

"Since the boss likes it, it means that he is good at drawing. Wang Yuan said, "Hurry up and hang up, I'll take the money from him first." ”

Zhao Ning and Huang Lin looked at each other, since the boss said so, as an employee, they naturally had to do it.

The two of them took Ren Bufan's painting to the side and framed it, and their movements were extremely careful.

"Come, I'll count the money first. Wang Yuan beckoned Ren Bufan to come over, opened the cashier drawer and took out a thick stack of banknotes.

Ren Bufan stared at those big red bills excitedly, and he was naturally happy to make money.

As for the old man who was upstairs, after Ren Bufan followed Wang Yuan down, he took out a mobile phone from his pocket and dialed a certain number: "Hey, Lao Liang, I have discovered a newcomer painter with special potential, and I have also acquired a batch of paintings of good quality." Don't you like ink paintings? Come and see! As long as you fancy any of them, you can take them away at a friendly price of 1,000 yuan! Yes! We have been good friends for many years, otherwise where can you buy them? Quality? Are you satisfied with the copy work from yesterday? Satisfied, right? The same person painted it. That is, I will sell you 1,000 paintings now, and I will not appreciate to what price in the future! I have already put the painting out and someone bought it when it is too late, but don't blame me for not leaving it for you! Okay, that's it! Anyway, you come over as soon as possible. ”

Ren Bufan didn't know that the painting that the old man had purchased from his hand for 500 yuan had been sold to others for 1,000 yuan, and his eyes were staring at the banknote in Wang Yuan's hand at this time, and he was nervous.

After Wang Yuan counted three times, he made sure that there were no mistakes, so he handed the money to Ren Bufan: "4,500 yuan, take it!"

"Okay!" Ren Bufan hurriedly took it and stuffed the money into the inner pocket of his coat, "Then I'll go first?"

"Why don't you stay and see if your paintings are popular?" Wang Yuan asked, "There will be a little more customers at about 13 o'clock, and maybe someone will take a fancy to your paintings and buy them on the spot." ”

"No!" Ren Bufan shook his head and said, "I still have things to do, so I don't have time." Now we must go, get things done quickly. Check back next Saturday and hopefully have some paintings on sale. ”

"Okay, then be careful on your own road, it's not safe to carry so much money, there is a bank not far away, you can deposit it first." ”

"No, I'm leaving!" Ren Bufan nodded to her and turned to leave the gallery.
