Chapter 463: Going to the Mainland!
"World of Warcraft" is not easy to write, and "A Song of Ice and Fire" is even more difficult to write.
If it weren't for Yin Jun's deep knowledge and understanding of them, it would be really difficult to do.
The World of Warcraft setting is too large and complicated, and "A Song of Ice and Fire" is even more exaggerated. It is almost several times more complex and profound than his idol Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings". This is why it was published in 1996 and has continued until There is no reason why the sixth part did not come out in 2016.
This book is the brainchild of the author's life.
As I was writing here, the phone outside the room rang.
Knowing that there are not many people on the phone number of Yin Jun's home, and there is no possibility of any phone scams now, so the boy put down his pen and got up to answer the phone.
After returning to Xiangjiang for more than two years, Yin Jun is now used to writing with a pen.
But if he is given a choice, the boy still hopes that the computer and the Internet will develop quickly.
Having a computer alone is not the greatest weapon for writing a book. It is an important magic weapon to write a good book quickly if you can search many ancient books, news and knowledge on the Internet for assistance.
"Hello?"
"Hi, Jun, me!" Wei Xiaofan's carefree voice came from the phone, "How is it? Have you received everything? The stamps are not bad, right?"
"Very good." Yin Jun said with a smile, "Brother Wei, you have worked hard."
In mid-March, the employees of the Shanghai Animation Film Studio who went back to visit relatives brought back stamps for Yin Jun in addition to the usual antique calligraphy and paintings for Yin Jun.
Their suitcases are not carry-on suitcases. In order to bring antique calligraphy and paintings to Yin Jun, these suitcases are oversized 50-inch suitcases, and they are all custom-made.
Such four large suitcases are filled to the brim, so one can imagine how much stamps have to be loaded.
That's right.
The stamps for these four suitcases are the first edition of the Chinese Zodiac stamps—Monkey stamps—issued on February 15th this year.
To say that the group of people at the Post Office were really desperate. In the face of the several grades of prices proposed by Wei Xiaofan, they used all their connections and directly provided Yin Jun with 30038 sets of full-page monkey tickets, piecemeal. People don't have the heart to get the four-party couplets and leaflets at all.
They didn't say how it was done, and Niu San'er didn't tell Wei Xiaofan either, but the things were put in front of him in bundles, so Wei Xiaofan didn't care about it.
They only charged 30,000 sets, 600,000 RMB, and the remaining 38 sets were given away.
When the goods were brought over, Wei Xiaofan realized that he forgot to mention that he also wanted a thousand-eight-hundred-dollar version.
The post and e-mail guys who came to collect the money didn't say anything at the time. After returning, they sent Wei Xiaofan 1000 copies the next day, but they still refused to collect the money.
In the end, Niu San'er told Wei Xiaofan that this is a favor he gave you! Thank you for introducing such a great deal to them!
Wei Xiaofan couldn't help laughing when he heard it.
Speaking of which, this is really a big deal!
A version of 80 sheets is priced at 6.4 yuan, and the 30,000 version is 192,000 yuan.
But how much did they sell for?
600000! !
As soon as it changed hands, it was a profit of 408,000 yuan!
400,000!
400,000 in 1980!
The average salary of employees in their post office is about 60 yuan, which has to be in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and even lower in small cities.
Even if they have hundreds of people to share the money, one person can have at least a thousand or eight hundred, and the maximum is tens of thousands.
You can earn a salary of one, two or even ten years for a single sum. Do you think it is a big business?
After the sale was over, Wei Xiaofan mentioned that he wanted to buy monkey tickets. People thought that Wei Xiaofan was asking for a fee, thinking that he had already earned 408,000 yuan, and 1,000 sets didn’t even count as a fraction, so of course he bought them directly from the warehouse. I bought it for Wei Xiaofan.
The courage and action of this group of people are really not covered.
There were only a little over 4.5 million copies in total, and they got 2.4 million copies for Yin Jun, which is more than half!
If it weren't for the luxury of writing and sending letters in this era, these stamps are really hard to get.
A letter costs 8 cents for stamps, and what can 8 cents do?
Even in Huajing, 8 cents can buy two flatbreads, or a bowl of fried noodles!
It is not common for ordinary people to miss a meal to send a letter.
In a few years, when the economy develops, the stamps will not be dared to do this, otherwise something will happen.
But Yin Jun didn't care about them. Anyway, these people were bought with real money, and they couldn't be stolen. It was considered a legitimate business. Who can say that they bought it unreasonably?
30038 monkey tickets, that is, 2403040 tickets!
Even if it is calculated according to the 800,000 edition after 2015, the stamps in Yin Jun's hand will be worth 24.0304 billion yuan after 35 years!
The stamps of four large suitcases can directly rank in the top 50 of Huaguo's richest list. Is this something anyone can think of now?
So, information is really more valuable than money!
The young man's thoughts flashed by, and Wei Xiaofan said again: "The matter of exchanging money you told me last time just had the basis for this time. Niu San'er also introduced me to the people in the bank. 100,000 yuan worth of brand-new 2-dollar banknotes. I reckon it’s about the same, right?”
"OK."
Yin Jun said, "Just like what we said last time, you can buy as many brand-new $2 bills as you want to deposit in the bank. Don't worry, Brother Wei, you put this money in the safe, which is cheaper than yours. It’s much cheaper to deposit in a bank.”
The whole knife is 100 sheets, also known as one knife.
A bundle is ten knives, 1000 pieces.
People nowadays don't know what coin collection is, but Yin Jun does.
In the future, whether it is the first set, the second set or the third set of RMB, there will be huge collection value in it.
Even the fourth set of 5 yuan and 50 yuan has to be doubled several times, or even dozens of times, let alone the previous sets of RMB.
Among the previous renminbi, the easiest to collect and the best collection value are the third set of 2 yuan banknotes.
Its price in 2016 was 2,480 yuan for an ancient coin with a watermark of two yuan, and the appreciation rate was 1,240 times!
The lower five-star watermark is two yuan, one piece is 1820 yuan, and the appreciation rate is 910 times!
If it is a whole knife, the price can rise to a certain extent.
In more than 30 years, there are not many businesses whose investment can reach 910 times and 1240 times, right?
Assuming that Wei Xiaofan has only 2 yuan with five-star watermarks in his hands, then his current 100,000 yuan can also reach 91 million yuan, which is definitely a huge sum of money!
Do you want to say that among other versions of banknotes, is there any higher value than it?
Of course there is!
Don’t talk about the old stuff like the first set, just talk about the 10 yuan of the second set, which is the legendary Big Black Ten. In 2016, it was 250,000 pieces! The appreciation rate is as high as 25,000 times!
There is also a second set of Jinggangshan 3 yuan, which was also 45,000 in 2016, which is also an appreciation of 15,000 times.
In the third set, there is even the King of Currency - a dime with a green watermark on the back, 41,000 yuan per piece, with an appreciation rate of 410,000 times!
Even if it is a jujube red corner, that is 8,200 pieces, and the appreciation rate is 82,000 times!
Even worse, the back green corner is 4080 pieces, and the appreciation rate is 40,800 times!
If Yin Jun asked Wei Xiaofan to buy these, wouldn't the appreciation rate be higher?
Even higher than your monkey ticket appreciation rate!
However, one thing to understand is that these coins are valuable because of their scarcity.
For example, the second set of renminbi was forcibly recalled and destroyed within a few years after it was issued, and it has been almost 20 years since it was issued. Where did you find so many big black ten?
The third set of renminbi is in use now, but the one dime with the green watermark on the back, the red dime on the back, and the green one on the back are also very rare varieties, and there is no way to buy them in large quantities. Collect one or two, seven or eight. ,What's the point?
It’s different for 2 yuan a piece. Its current circulation is quite large, and it’s easy to collect. You can go to the bank to get it, and you can get it at the bank. At most, you can give a red envelope of thousands of dollars. That's enough.
Of course, compared to buying monkey tickets, the rate of return is still much worse.
It’s just that Wei Xiaofan doesn’t really believe that monkey tickets can make a lot of money, and it’s impossible for Yin Jun to tell him, Brother Wei, buy it quickly. I came back from 40 years later, and the monkey tickets at that time were so high. God damn it!
Yin Jun asked him to buy 2 yuan worth of coins because Wei Xiaofan was very simple. He felt that it was unsafe to hold all the 1 million RMB and 220,000 US dollars he brought back from Xiangjiang, and wanted to diversify his investment.
Originally, he was going to deposit it in the bank, but Yin Jun told him that you might as well go and buy a brand new coin worth 2 yuan to return to the bank, so that it will appreciate faster in the future.
Thinking that what he was buying was money anyway, no matter how bad it was, it would not be bad to use it later, so Wei Xiaofan went to exchange 100,000 brand new 2 yuan bills.
After talking about the banknotes, the two chatted for a while, and when they were about to hang up the phone, Wei Xiaofan said, "Jun, I'm planning to get married on June 29, when do you think you'll be back?"
"Ah?" Yin Jun asked in surprise, "Brother Wei, are you getting married so soon?"
"How fast is this? My brother, I'm a 35-year-old man who eats rice when I turn the year. My parents are dying!" Wei Xiaofan laughed, "During the Spring Festival here, our two families get together After we got together, we decided the matter. At that time, you can help me bring Aunt Zhang and Ayu back. I will also call Senior Brother, Awei and Afa, but it will depend on their time when the time comes. .”
"OK!"
Yin Jun nodded, "I'll call everyone who can come, let's have a good time!"
"It's not necessary to mobilize the teachers so much, we can just come by ourselves." Wei Xiaofan was a little shy when talking about getting married.
Hanging up the phone with a smile, Yin Jun nodded slightly.
At Wei Xiaofan's age, it's time to get married and have children.
When he finished the major events in his life, he would be able to focus on doing his own business well.
At that time, no matter whether he is in the mainland or returns to Xiangjiang, he will have no worries.
However, Yin Jun looked at him, and now he looks like a fish in water in the mainland.
That's fine, Wei Xiaofan can stay wherever he feels comfortable.
If you want to find a business assistant, isn't that easy?
You can't just drag your brother to Xiangjiang for business and let him live a life you don't like, right?
Speaking of Wei Xiaofan's marriage at the end of June, and thinking that he would set foot on the mainland land again, Yin Jun suddenly felt a little worried about gains and losses.
This is already a homecoming.
But the places and people I'm familiar with don't exist yet.
The orphanage hadn't been opened yet, those friends hadn't been born yet, and even the familiar city wasn't exactly what he remembered.
A feeling of being close to home and timidity surged into Yin Jun's heart.
