Chapter 54: Strange Business

The Queen Mother's birthday is set for the seventh day of the next month, and the birthday gift should be prepared. Jing Yu came to the mall space to walk around, and only the things in the handicraft store could be given away.

There are high-end vintage watch shops, quartz clock faces, diamond inlays, and many noble prices, but many of the craftsmanship is very modern, and it will make people stand out at a glance, and can only be crossed out from the list of gift-giving alternatives.

There is also a musical instrument store over there, electronic organs, guitars or something, but there is also a guzheng, guqin brand store, go in to see, the teller said that it is all handmade ancient methods, excellent materials, the price is also expensive, this is good, but think about it, the queen mother does not seem to be interested in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, this is not considered for the time being.

Walking further inside, she suddenly opened up, because she saw several connected handicraft shops, went in to see, these are all carving handicraft masters made high-end handicrafts, there are "copper far-sighted auspicious deer", there is a mark below which master made it, the date of origin and so on should be specified.

There is also a wooden vase on display in the glass cabinet next to it, the surface is shiny, the bottle ears are two elegant swans, lifelike, look at the introduction, the material is copper, the price is more than 20,000 yuan. Jing Yu converted it according to the price of rice in the Qing Dynasty, and the gift of more than 20,000 yuan in the Qing Dynasty was about more than 100 taels of silver, and her annual share was 400 taels, which was still a bit unqualified.

If you go over there, you will see a European-style craft shop.

At a glance, Jing Yu took a fancy to a fruit bowl inlaid with crystal and gold edges, as well as six similar utensils such as tea bottles and storage cups, which were crystal clear and had a unique shape, which she liked very much.

Look at the list price, because the size is different, it is the price of about 20,000 yuan.

After choosing four preferential prices, it was 68,000, which was exactly the same size as her year's share of silver, so it was very handy.

"That's all." She pointed out to the waitress which ones to choose and asked her to wrap them up.

The waiter smiled in response, carefully opened the glass cabinet to wrap the things, and opened a list for her, saying, "The cashier is in front of the left turn and go straight to the corner of the elevator." ”

"Huh?" Jing Yu was puzzled, why did she tell me where the cashier was? Is there a charge? In the past, there was no charge for picking up things.

The waitress saw that she was a little unclear, so she said: "By the way, Miss Jing, maybe you didn't know before, our mall has a half-year trial period, within half a year, Miss Jing, you can consume unlimited amounts, and the mall will provide free payment services, but it is not permanent, now the trial period has passed, if you think the service of our mall is okay, you can renew, but you have to pay the bill as usual when you shop in the future!" ”

Nani?

……

Actually...... This logic is correct.

It just verifies her consistent perception that there is no such thing as a free lunch.

Isn't it just as good to cross!?

Although at this moment there is still a little disappointment, a small accident......

Well, since that's the case...... To buy these things or not to buy them?

If she buys it, where will she find the money?

The waiter said that this payment can be done by card, cash, and Alipay, that is to say, the payment is in accordance with the payment method and face value of the 21st century.

But she is now in the Qing Dynasty......

"It's okay," the waiter said, "You can use the items from the Qing Dynasty to go to our top-level capital department to convert, so that you can exchange for the equivalent RMB." ”

Is there anything like this?

This shopping mall doesn't seem to be as simple as imagined.

"Okay, then I'm in the Qing Dynasty after all, and I didn't know that I needed to pay before, so I'll leave the things first, and I'll talk about it another day." That's all there is to it.

"Okay." The waiter said: "You don't need to worry, we have enough goods, and you can buy them at any time if you need them." ”

"Hmm." After thanking him, he came back, and the pressure increased a few percent - the queen mother's birthday gift is coming, and it will be difficult to do it if you don't have enough money for a while.

I knew that I would buy it within half a year, but the mall didn't notify me before, which is definitely a routine.

In any case, Jing Yu feels that pressure is motivation, and he must find a way to earn enough money in the future - he still has to rely on himself in the end.

I heard that the way the concubines and palace ladies in the palace make money is nothing more than to make exquisite embroidery workers and ask the eunuchs to take them out of the palace and sell them.

She is not exempt, so she can only follow the local customs and choose this way to make money.

But an embroidered purse is only a few pennies, counting the treasure, the four of them can embroider eight purses a day and can't sell half a tael of silver.

In this way, even if it is until the Queen Mother's birthday next year, you will not be able to save enough money.

She took out the leaflet that the waiter had just given her, this leaflet was printed on advertising paper color pages, a thin and small book, just like a bank business brochure, which described the business of the mall in detail, as well as the rules for the exchange of money and goods.

Jing Yu carefully studied each one, finding the key points to focus on.

The price of supermarket items is set according to the price of 21st century, and the price of rice in the 21st century is 10 yuan per kilogram.

Then she saw the last page, there were some financial tips, one of which caught her attention: the top treasury department accepts the exchange of current items for cash, and auctions are held from time to time.

Her brain moved, when the items were exchanged for cash, if according to the market price of the 21st century, many ordinary objects in the Qing Dynasty were antiques in the 21st century, especially the things in the Forbidden City were national treasures, and the price would be doubled indefinitely.

Thinking of this, I hurriedly rummaged through the back to see if there was a more detailed explanation, but unfortunately there was none.

She was going to ask Manager Wan about it.

When she came to the office where he had given her the business card, the secretary invited her in.

The translucent glass door closes automatically.

Mr. Wan was busy sorting out materials in front of the writing desk, and when he saw her coming, he greeted her as kindly as always, led her to the sofa in front of the office and sat down, and asked the secretary to pour a cup of hot coffee.

Mr. Wan smiled back and said, "I'm sorry, I'm too busy these days, and I didn't personally answer the matter of the probation period in our mall for you, which must have surprised you, but I believe you will understand that this is the regulation of Yida Company, and as employees, we must abide by it." ”

Jing Yu said: "This should naturally be. She asked, "Yesterday I looked at our business brochure and found the last page. She opened to the last page and asked, "How will this place be priced if you use a vase with antique value from the Qing Dynasty to exchange it for our treasury department?" ”

Mr. Wan smiled and said: "Miss Jing is an understanding person, in fact, you guessed right, no matter what kind of object you choose to exchange, our system will accurately identify what the real-time price of your antique is, and the whole process of computer valuation is not deceitful." To tell the truth," he said, "a considerable part of Yida's earnings are the resale of rare antiques. ”

She took out a bronze Fangzun, although this is a thing in the Forbidden City, but it belongs to the previous dynasty, and she went to the capital department with Manager Wan to appraise it.

The business staff carefully took out the things and put them into a transparent device, the equipment operated, after the automatic scanning of each direction, the computer's short-term precision calculation, and soon the price of Fang Zun was displayed on the big screen: ¥288889.

It seems that this is the case, Jing Yu guessed correctly, she just took a plate from her room, and it might be worth eight thousand.

She was surprised and asked Mr. Wan, who is the boss of Yida, and what kind of existence is the processor and the controller behind this business? What else is there to know?

But Mr. Wan only refused with one sentence - they signed a confidentiality agreement, and the consequences of not being able to disclose it would be very serious.

It was only an estimate, Jing Yu wrapped Fang Zun and took it back, thanked Manager Wan, and thought about it for a long time after coming back.

If she sells her antiques, will she fall into the hands of some unscrupulous person or unscrupulous businessman? Drain a national treasure into another world? She had to figure out what the hell she had in her mind about this Yida department store.
