Get on the train again.

Lin Yi is already familiar with the road.

After saying hello to the people in the same carriage, he lay down on his bed and began to read.

The clanging sound of the rails and the noisy chatting of the people around him could not affect Lin Yi, who was already immersed in it.

In fact, this immersive reading feeling is very refreshing.

The whole person's mind seems to leave the shell, burrow into the world of the book and wander, learning makes me happy, and learning makes me happier in the future.

Three days later,

Lin Yi stayed in the hotel again.

"Boss, meet again." Lin Yi greeted the innkeeper.

"It's Brother Lin, it's only been ten days since I came over again, it seems that business is very good." The innkeeper said with a smile.

"It's really good."

"Do you still go to the last house to pick up the goods this time, I'll contact you." The innkeeper said.

"Is there a better place to change this time?" Lin Yi asked.

He is not only for the purchase of goods, but also to see more places and inspect the market, and fully understand the current market situation.

"No problem, it's bigger than last time, and the goods are more complete." The innkeeper was full of promises.

The boss opened a room for Lin Yi,

Lin Yi happily paid 50 yuan for the information.

At five o'clock in the morning the next day, Lin Yi was woken up, still the same routine as last time, boarding a boat at the pier and carrying a boat to an island.

This market is indeed bigger than the last time on the island, there are fifty or sixty houses, and there are more varieties of goods, and there are seven or eight that sell sunglasses alone.

Clothes, shoes, cosmetics, purses, sunglasses, watches, motorcycles, televisions, radios, tape recorders, umbrellas, cloths, shampoo, laundry detergent, cigarettes... There are even imported sweets.

What surprised Lin Yi the most was.

He was on the island and saw that there was an exchange of gold and foreign exchange.

You must know that at present, China implements strict control over the purchase and sale of gold, and the people freeze the trading of gold and silver, stipulating that the domestic trading of gold and silver is uniformly operated by banks.

It was not until '82 that gold jewelry was released.

It is said that when the gold store in Beijing opened, more than a ton of gold jewelry was sold in one day, and it was said that it was poor at that time, but this purchasing power was still terrifying.

Now the gold and silver trade on the island is naturally illegal, they mainly collect gold, and then take the gold and silver to the sea to trade with those smugglers.

They mainly collect, of course, they also sell, but they will increase the price, Lin Yi feels that this is also normal, and making the difference is the most basic means of doing business.

As for foreign exchange.

Nowadays, the state also strictly controls it, and the country's foreign exchange reserves are said to be only a few hundred million US dollars, and some other foreign currencies, and foreigners who come to China have to exchange them for foreign exchange coupons, just to collect foreign currency.

And foreign exchange coupons can be used in friendship stores, and you can buy many things that can't be bought in ordinary department stores, and you don't need coupons.

Nowadays, many people go abroad, but the state only gives a very small number of foreign exchange quotas, and it is good for a person to exchange a few hundred dollars, but it is really not enough to spend, and there are many people who want to bring back something from abroad, so they need more foreign currency.

The right path does not work, and the black market naturally comes into being.

In 80 years, the exchange rate between the RMB and the US dollar was about 1.7 yuan for 1 US dollar, but people did not recognize it at all, and the RMB could not be freely converted into US dollars.

On the black market, this exchange rate can be multiplied several times, 1 US dollar can be exchanged for six or seven yuan, and it is not uncommon for black dots to be exchanged for eight or nine yuan, and the highest peak in history is said to have reached 1 to 12.

Lin Yi went in and asked the exchange price, "How to exchange dollars?" ”。

The man looked at Lin Yi and said, "The dollar is 1 to 8." ”

"What about the Hong Kong dollar?"

"HK$0.5 to 1".

Lin Yixin said.

It would be nice if I could earn dollars or Hong Kong dollars, anyway, the system eats RMB, and I get US dollars to be exchanged for RMB on the black market, which will multiply several times at once.

But I can only think about it.

With his current situation, it is difficult to go abroad, so for the time being, it is better to be a glorious and wealthy career.

Delivery.

The price here is basically the same as the island I went to for the first time, and the price of goods is basically the same, and I think they are also angry, otherwise they will ask for the price, and the market will be chaotic.

Seven or eight merchants selling sunglasses,

Lin Yi ran from house to house.

He was not slow to pick up the goods, and by noon he had already picked up enough goods, carrying two large bags in his hand and walking out, there was a restaurant next to him, Lin Yi went in and asked for a bowl of noodles to fill his stomach and rest by the way.

There is a stall next to the restaurant,

There are various prints on it.

Some people gathered around the stall, laughing and whispering while watching, Lin Yi was curious about the past, and he saw it and shouted good guys.

color-changing lighters,

Beauty Poker,

illustrations,

Novels with all kinds of hot titles, a whole bunch of ellipses.

Some posters and wall calendars in bikinis are considered the most normal.

Reform

At the same time as the introduction of capital and technology, some messy things also poured in, and it was inevitable that the mud and sand would fall.

Maybe these things are still a little attractive to others, but for Lin Yi, who has been baptized by modern information and has a few T hard disk seeds, these can only be regarded as primary products in pediatrics.

But when he saw the calendars, some thoughts suddenly occurred in his head.

"Boss, how do you sell these wall calendars?" Lin Yi asked.

"A single sheet costs 5 cents, and a copy of twelve pieces costs 5 yuan." The stall owner, a middle-aged, greasy man, replied in broken Mandarin.

The price that the owner said was obviously too expensive.

"What about wholesale in large quantities?" Lin Yi asked.

"If you wholesale in large quantities, three cents for a single sheet, and three yuan for a book of twelve." The owner gave a similar price this time.

Department stores also have wall calendars,

It's good to sell it before the Chinese New Year every year.

Basically, a single piece is a dollar, and a piece of twelve is 10 yuan a piece, but most of the wall calendars sold in department stores are landscapes, potted flowers and birds, celebrity calligraphy and paintings, and there will never be beauties in bikinis.

People are state-run units, selling wall calendars with revealing sexy content, in case of being picked out from above, the leaders will definitely be held accountable, those department store leaders are known for their stability, and not making mistakes is meritorious, so it is impossible to sell these amorous wall calendars.

Now that it has entered November, it is almost time to change the calendar, if you get a batch of such bikini beauties to sell back and fill the gap in this market, it will definitely be very good.

However, Lin Yi quickly dismissed the idea.

He calculated that his cubic meter of space could bring back a maximum of one or two thousand wall calendars at a time, even if he earned 3 yuan according to one copy, it would only be more than 35,000 yuan, which was far worse than selling sunglasses.

If you want to make money with a wall calendar,

The best way is to find a local printing shop, print a batch in large quantities, and then quickly put it into the market before New Year's Day and Spring Festival, sell it wholesale and make a quick buck.

"Boss, bring me a copy of everything." Lin Yidao.

"One copy of each kind, that's only thirty or fifty copies, and you can't give a wholesale price for this amount." The boss said.

"I'm not too small, you can make it cheaper."

"Then a single sheet is 4 cents, and the whole book is 4 yuan." The boss said.

Originally, it wasn't too much, Lin Yi wasn't bargaining, the boss took out one copy of each from the bookstall and finally counted more than 20 kinds of single sheets, more than 20 kinds of twelve whole books, a total of more than 50 yuan.

When choosing, Lin Yi looked at them one by one.

There are half European and American beauties and half Asian beauties, and there are many who he doesn't know, but there are also many big stars who are familiar to future generations.

Such as Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Sophia Loren.

Lin Yi bought these wall calendars,

Not for sale, certainly not for his own use, his idea was that if he could find a suitable printing shop when he went back, he was going to use these calendars directly as a baseplate.

Four o'clock in the afternoon,

The fishing boat left with a group of people, Lin Yi returned to the hotel, it was still the original process, Lin Yi asked the boss to help book a sleeper back to the city, and the boss took the money and readily agreed.

The sunglasses that entered this time had filled the space, and in order to put down those wall calendars, Lin Yi put the sunglasses out, threw away the straps, and finally made room for the wall calendars to be put in.

The next day,

Lin Yi got on the train back to Jiangcheng.

Another three-day trip.

Lin Yi finally returned home.
