Chapter 87: Transshipment
Mr. Wang has been in business for many years and is obviously very talkative, but for some reason, he started with the string of human bone prayer beads in his hand-
It was five or six years ago that Mr. Wang's former boss came to Mr. Wang to borrow money.
This person's surname is Xing, and he is called Boss Xing.
Because Boss Xing took care of Mr. Wang when he just debuted, Mr. Wang was not easy to refuse.
At that time, Mr. Wang was still doing some wholesale trading of daily necessities in the south, and the scale of the business was very small, and he didn't make much money.
Boss Xing's catering business was originally bigger and richer than Mr. Wang's, but Boss Xing's son is not angry, and he can be regarded as a pampered rich second generation.
The reason why Boss Xing borrowed money was because his son had a fight with a group of people, and there was a life lawsuit, and he needed a lot of money to be sentenced.
Even if you have money, you can't stand up to a loser, Boss Xing pushed out his own restaurant, and the lawsuit lasted for more than half a year, and the money was spent but there was still no follow-up, so Boss Xing begged Mr. Wang.
Mr. Wang was also very generous, and took out 500,000 yuan at once, which is nothing to a rich person, but for Mr. Wang, it can be described as half of his own property.
Judging from this, it seems that Mr. Wang is still very nostalgic and righteous.
took out such a large amount of 500,000 to borrow someone, and no one was worried, but Mr. Wang had complete trust in Boss Xing's character.
But the human life lawsuit is not trivial, it is like a bottomless pit, and how much money you throw into it will sink into the sea.
After half a year, I didn't see Boss Xing take the initiative to repay the money, so Mr. Wang couldn't stand it anymore and went to Boss Xing's house.
Seeing Boss Xing's down-and-out appearance, even Mr. Wang himself was embarrassed to ask for debts.
Boss Xing said very sincerely that he has always been a fair and honest person, and he must repay the borrowed money, but now that his son has entered the bureau, isn't he working all his life just so that his son can live a good life?
Now, Boss Xing's hope is gone, and he has no interest in smashing pots and selling iron, he said that he really has no money in his hands now, and if he can have money in the future, he will definitely return it to Mr. Wang.
Speaking of which, the two still had a relationship before, what else can Mr. Wang do, even if he sues Boss Xing in court, the 500,000 yuan is enough to choke back.
Mr. Wang comforted Boss Xing a few words and was about to leave, and when he went out, Boss Xing stopped Mr. Wang, he went into the back room for a while and took out a delicate small box.
Boss Xing handed the box to Mr. Wang and said that this thing was auctioned from a big auction in Xiangjiang when his business was booming, and it was genuine.
Boss Xing gave this thing to Mr. Wang, it is not considered to be a debt, if Boss Xing is developed, 500,000 cents will still be returned to Mr. Wang, but to put it mildly, if Boss Xing is in a slump from then on, then it can only be regarded as Mr. Wang's bad luck.
Mr. Wang opened the box and saw that it was just a string of prayer beads, and it looked very old, Mr. Wang was a little unimpressed, but he just regarded this thing as a souvenir left by Boss Xing to himself, and the matter of repaying debts was over.
As for whether Boss Xing has made a fortune by now, Mr. Wang didn't say, and we didn't ask.
In short, this is the origin of the human bone rosary, and the subsequent topic mainly focused on this string of rosaries.
When Mr. Wang got this string of human bone prayer beads, he didn't understand the peculiarity of this thing, but he could see that the warm and smooth pulp emanating from the surface should be very old.
Mr. Wang put the rosary on his wrist, which was an ornament given to him by an old friend, but he didn't take it seriously.
The money lent to Boss Xing, Mr. Wang also knew that he would not come back for a while, remembering that when he cooperated with Boss Xing, the other party did help him a lot.
Thinking about it like this, my heart is much more balanced, and from then on, An An continued to do business separately.
In just two years, Mr. Wang's business has become more and more prosperous, receiving several large orders, and he has also opened a garment factory, in short, the business is continuous.
Mr. Wang said that those years were really smooth, everything was smooth, he made a lot of money, and I don't know if it was because he was blessed by the human bone rosary.
However, it is worth mentioning that sometimes I dream that a person in white clothes and white pants appears in my dreams, and that person always stands at a very high place with his back to Mr. Wang.
Because it wasn't a terrible nightmare, Mr. Wang didn't care about it.
Soon, Mr. Wang became a well-known private entrepreneur, became rich, his identity changed, and the people and things he came into contact with also changed.
He has made a lot of friends in the cultural circle, and when chatting with friends, some connoisseurs can see that Mr. Wang's rosary is extraordinary, and Mr. Wang does not take it very seriously, but he does feel that this string of rosaries has changed his fortune.
At a wine table, a friend talked about investment, people are not satisfied with money, and it is normal for people to want to take out some investment when they are richer.
A friend in the cultural circle said that at present, the best, easiest and most profitable investment is to invest in art.
When it comes to art investment, Mr. Wang doesn't know anything, but that friend is right, in the past few years, the art market is really very good, it can be said that you can make money as soon as you buy something, and you can make money by buying something.
Although Mr. Wang didn't understand the unspoken rules in the art circle, he watched his friends go to the mainland to buy some old calligraphy and paintings, and then go to Xiangjiang for an auction, and the price increased dozens or even hundreds of times, which was too profitable.
In addition, when he heard his friends boasting at the wine table, how could Mr. Wang not be moved?
Sometimes Mr. Wang also wants to spend 10,000 or 20,000 yuan to get a painting from the mainland, and it is tens of millions when it changes hands, with such a big profit, how many pieces of clothing do you have to sell to make so much money!
Thinking like this, Mr. Wang had the idea of investing in art.
Coincidentally, just a year ago, Mr. Wang came to the north to talk about business, and unexpectedly met a friend who was engaged in calligraphy and painting.
Even a layman knows that there are too many fakes in the calligraphy and painting market, and since it is an investment, of course, it is to make money, and Mr. Wang definitely does not want to buy fakes.
A friend who is engaged in calligraphy and painting told Mr. Wang that Mr. Wang's investment intention is outdated, that is, it is too late to start.
It's not a good saying, when you see the stock rising, you know that you bought it, and the daylilies are cold.
There are so many rich people in these years, and when they see where there is an opportunity, they will fly over, and there are actually only a few old calligraphy and paintings, and the resources are limited.
When Mr. Wang heard that this person was right, he wanted to give up this investment plan, but he heard that person said that although the resources of ancient paintings are less, he can still invest in the calligraphy and painting of some young potential painters.
The market for young painters is not very hot at present, and it is the best time to invest, because the things of the ancients are non-renewable resources after all, but there is a demand in the market, and the demand is still so big, the old paintings cannot afford to play, so they can only play with new paintings.
Wang is always a businessman with a certain economic acumen, he is very interested in hearing this, he thinks this is an unpopular child, he wants to buy some young painters' works, anyway, he can't invest much money, even if he loses it, where can he lose.
It's a pity that Mr. Wang doesn't understand art at all, so he hopes to use that connoisseur friend to help introduce some young and powerful artists, and then acquire some works with potential, strength and appearance, waiting for a steady stream of appreciation.
