345: Three hundred times the rate of return
Lin Yao came to Yanjing this time mainly for three things.
The first thing is to choose a dealer with identity and let him become the general agent in the north to help him ship.
The second thing is that the breath of reform and opening up is getting stronger and stronger, everyone's living standards are improving, and the money in their pockets is also increasing.
Lin Yao felt that he could use his status as a Hong Kong businessman to invest in his hometown.
He can make investments that others dare not do, whether it is an electrical appliance store or a department store, or even just a simple sale of fashionable clothes on Hong Kong Island, and he can make a lot of money in his hometown.
At this stage, my hometown is still a state-run cooperative, not to mention supermarkets and super malls, and there is not even the concept of a store.
If you can get a few department stores in Yanjing, Shenzhen, Tianjing, Shangjing, Yangcheng, and Hangzhou, the speed of making money will not be slower than that of the money printing machine.
The third thing is that the houses in Yanjing are so cheap at the moment, and he is ready to buy a few courtyard houses.
He is not greedy, medium-sized courtyards, the location is better, just get two or three.
In the 90s, Yanjing began to renovate on a large scale, selling one or two buildings at the right price, and keeping them for themselves if they were not suitable, waiting for later generations to rent out.
In addition, take advantage of the current cheap price to collect some antiques, and wait until around 2010, just the courtyard and antiques can be worth two or three billion.
It doesn't matter if you have money or not, as soon as you say that you have a courtyard house in Yanjing, you will have face when you say it.
"This place is called Wangfujing, it is the most prosperous place in Yanjing, and the Ming and Qing dynasties were mostly used to build mansions for the princes, so there is the name Wangfujing.
There is an alley on this side of Wangfujing North Street, and there are more than 20 antique shops in the alley, and you may not believe it, these antique shops are officially run and sold to foreigners, specifically for foreign exchange purposes.
When you buy things here, you can use any money, but you can't use Tang coins, and it's absolutely authentic.
Of course, you don't have to think about it if you are a national treasure, those things will not be taken out and sold.
What is sold here are some second- and third-grade treasures, such as calligraphy and paintings of the Song Dynasty, vases of the Ming Dynasty, and porcelain of the Qing Dynasty.
The best ones are just quasi-national treasures, the treasures of the town store.
I heard that the calligraphy and painting shop had a picture of Mr. Zhang Daqian's green pine, which was priced at 880,000 Hong Kong dollars and could not be taken out of the country, so I was going to buy it. ”
While walking towards Wangfujing, Lin Yao said his plan.
Zhang Daqian's paintings, 880,000 Hong Kong dollars are definitely not expensive, if placed in the auction house on Hong Kong Island, 2 million is not unusual.
The reason why it has not been bought is because the painting is not allowed to leave the country, you can buy it, you can only enjoy it in China, which makes many foreign businessmen or Hong Kong and Taiwan feel unacceptable.
Lin Yao didn't have this concern, he was going to buy a courtyard house in Yanjing, and this painting would be hung in his house when the time came.
Twenty or thirty years later, the painting will be 300 times larger, to say the least, and it is not something you can buy if you want to.
Give it to an official who likes calligraphy and painting, and he will dare to grant you tens of billions of land.
simply gives money, but some officials who like to be elegant do not accept it.
"It's here!"
When he came to the antique street, Lin Yao pointed to the shops on both sides and advised: "If you see that there is no sign outside, what is hanging on the sign will be operated inside."
If you hang a plate, inside is an antique of the plate.
If you hang a jar, there are antiques in the jar.
There are also some squatting in the corner, they may also have good things in their hands, of course, more fakes, it is better not to deal with them without this eyesight, and don't even think about picking up leaks. ”
Different from the storyline in China, the leakage in reality rarely happens, and there is also a leak between antique dealers and antique dealers, and outsiders really can't take your turn.
If you go with this in mind, you will wait to be caught.
To put it mildly, unless you're a true master, a veteran of antiques for decades.
Otherwise, your little knowledge can be compared to these vendors.
Lin Yao didn't have the heart to pick up the leaks, and he didn't have that eyesight.
He came to the antique street run by the government, instead of going to the black market on the side of the glaze factory, for the official production, quality assurance label.
It doesn't matter if it's expensive, you can't buy a fake.
"What are you looking for, sir?"
When I entered a store, I was greeted by the staff warmly.
Lin Yao looked inside, and there were more than a dozen customers standing in the store of two or three hundred square meters, among which there were even African big blacks.
"Sir, this is a new jar, would you like it?"
Under the leadership of the clerk, Lin Yao was led to a red jar.
The jar is not big, only thirty centimeters high, and its whole body is blood-red, and it looks very beautiful.
"What kind of jar is this?"
Lin Yao didn't understand antiques, but he thought they looked good.
Seeing that Lin Yao was a little moved, the clerk smiled and introduced: "This is Junzhou chicken blood porcelain, which is produced in Nanheyu County, but this is not a Song kiln, it is a Ming kiln imitation Song kiln, of course, it is also produced by the official kiln, and the value is still very high."
You look at the workmanship, this color, no worse than the Song kiln, belongs to the Ming imitation Song Dynasty boutique, with the seal of the official kiln below. ”
"Ming imitates the fine products of the Song Dynasty, it sounds good!"
Lin Yao looked at this chicken blood porcelain and asked, "If I pay the bill in Hong Kong dollars, how much will it cost?" ”
Hearing that it was Hong Kong dollars, the clerk took the abacus and said after a while: "Ninety-eight thousand Hong Kong dollars." ”
"Ninety-eight thousand!"
With a look of satisfaction, Lin Yao said to the knife boy behind him: "It's quite cheap." ”
Even if it is the chicken blood porcelain of the Ming Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, it will not be cheap if it is put down in future generations, and there must be millions.
And he likes this jar very much, the color is bright red, it looks very festive, if you can get a pair, it must look good in the living room.
"Is there only one here?"
Lin Yao looked at the chicken blood porcelain, and said eagerly: "If you can get together a pair of pairs, it's no problem if the price is more expensive, and ask for a good fortune in pairs." ”
The clerk didn't dare to say anything, so he could only hesitate and say: "I can help you ask about this, if it's convenient, you can leave a phone number and find me to contact you." ”
"Yes, I live in room 1606 of Yanjing Hotel, and I will not leave Yanjing for half a month."
As Lin Yao spoke, he took out his wallet, took out ten Hong Kong dollars with a face value of 1,000 yuan from it, and said, "This 10,000 Hong Kong dollars is a deposit, don't sell this jar, I'll take it when you make a pair." ”
"I'll go talk to the manager."
The clerk didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he asked someone who was suspected of being the manager for instructions.
The manager looked at Lin Yao and the others, nodded his head from time to time to express his affirmation, and soon got the order of the clerk to go and return, and said: "Our manager agreed, I will give you a note, if you haven't found another jar after seven days, you can take the deposit at any time." ”
"Okay, you can do it."
Lin Yao nodded in agreement, and then looked at Xu Lingjun: "Old Xu, do you have anything you like, if you have one, buy it together." ”
After speaking, he looked at the teapot and the knife boy again: "Look at it, it's all good things here." ”
"Brother Yao, I won't be polite to you."
The teapot was lying on the counter, pointing to a set of tea sets and asking, "How much is this?" ”
"This set of tea sets is blue and white porcelain, from the Daoguang period, the official kiln, two hundred years ago."
The clerk first praised the tea set, and then said, "63,000 Hong Kong dollars, it's definitely worth the price." ”
The teapot looked at Lin Yao with a longing expression, obviously liking this set of teaware.
"Wrap it up."
Lin Yao instructed the clerk to wrap it up, and laughed at the teapot: "You call it a teapot, buy antiques and buy tea sets, it seems that your nickname is very correct." ”
"Hey, hey..."
The teapot scratched his head and said happily: "I took it back as a family heirloom, I remember when I was a child, my family had such a set of tea sets of the Republic of China, and then I don't know how it was gone, which made me cry for a long time." ”
Lin Yao nodded, and then asked Xiang Daozai: "What about you, let's see if you like it." ”
"I think this great statue is good, my dad must like it."
Daozi didn't look at antiques, but looked at a set of white porcelain busts of great men.
"You really have a good eye, this great statue is the best of the best, and the price is not expensive, only eight hundred yuan."
Under the recommendation of the clerk, Lin Yao spent more than 400,000 yuan, and bought seven or eight jars alone.
Even Xu Lingjun was driven by him and bought two kimchi jars in the store, saying that he wanted to take them back to his wife.
At the end of the day, Lin Yao spent more than 2.7 million yuan to buy a car and a half of various antiques.
When I went back, I couldn't pull a single van, and finally had to hire a 212.
Lin Yao himself estimated that if he put down the future generations, these antiques would definitely not be able to stop without seven or eight hundred million.
Not to mention anything else, just Zhang Daqian's green pine map, without two or three hundred million, it can't be down.
The return on investment is at least hundreds of times.
It also looks good when it is placed.
