Chapter 763 Clivia Incident! Someone Wants to Drag Yang Ming Into This! !
October 1, 1982.
today is National Day.
There is no military parade this year, but this year’s National Day ceremony is still quite lively.
Yang Ming got up early.
After breakfast at the Oriental Mandarin Hotel, he went to attend the National Day ceremony with Lin Xiuzhi, Huo Yingdong and others.
Nearly a day later, after attending the state banquet.
That night, Yang Ming returned to the Oriental Mandarin Hotel.
Have a night's rest.
Early the next day.
Huo Yingdong, Hu Yingxiang and others came to say goodbye to Yang Ming and left.
Mr. Bao is here too.
Thinking about the situation of the other party's father, Bao Zhaolong, historically, he might have died of a heart attack like Mr. Dong next month.
Originally, Yang Ming wanted to remind Bao Yugang, but how could Yang Ming think this was a reminder?
It seems that these things are destined to happen.
"Mr. Bao, when I return to Xiangjiang, I will have time to meet your father."
"Sir Yang, then we will wait for you to come over."
Mr. Bao and others left.
Yang Ming's place quickly became quiet.
It's starting to get a little cold in Yanjing now, but it's not that cold yet.
Yang Ming knew that after Huo Yingdong and others left Yanjing, he would soon return to Xiangjiang.
In the afternoon.
Tang Yun and Zhou Kaixuan are here.
When Tang Yun came, she also brought a pot of flowers.
"Boss, this is the Clivia someone gave you."
Clivia?
Of course Yang Ming knows him.
In the flower world, Clivia is known as a noble character and a gentleman among flowers. It is a flower that many people like.
But what Tang Yun said next made Yang Ming suddenly think of something.
"Boss, it is said that this pot of Clivia is not cheap. It is worth the price of a small car."
Is it worth the price of a small car?
Yang Ming didn't feel anything yet.
Ah Zhu, Guan Jiahui, and Zhong Chuhong were all very surprised. They gathered around to look at this pot of Clivia. Is it more expensive than gold?
It should be said that the gold in Xiangjiang is precious now.
If this pot of Clivia is worth 100,000 yuan, it is more expensive than gold.
There is also Clivia in Xiangjiang. They never imagined that why is Clivia so expensive in China?
It’s actually more expensive than a small car?
Yang Ming really suddenly thought of something very important.
"Who asked you to send this?"
Yang Ming's expression changed.
"Boss, it was sent by a second-generation friend I know."
Second generation?
Even then, Yang Ming still said: "If someone sends it, you should send it back immediately to someone. This matter is not as simple as you think."
When Tang Yun heard this, she immediately knew the seriousness of the matter, and she hurriedly sent the pot of Clivia away.
Zhou Kaixuan, A Zhu, Guan Jiahui, Zhong Chuhong and others did not know the seriousness of this matter.
Clivia was originally a wild flower in southern Africa and was later introduced to Europe and the East.
In the 1930s, Dongyang presented this flower to Puyi and planted it in the garden of the pseudo-imperial palace as a precious flower.
It is rarely cultivated among the people.
In the mid-1940s, Clivia gradually became popular across the country from places such as Chunshi.
Around 1978, there was a market for buying and selling Clivia in the Spring Market.
Many elderly people in Chunshi have concluded their initial attachment to Clivia. Clivia has a resounding name and high ornamental value. But its core charm lies in its huge market potential.
At that time, if you carried a pot of Clivia without having to walk the entire street, the price would rise three times.
In the eyes of many Chunshi citizens, the "Benefit Exhibition to Rescue the National Treasure Giant Panda Clivia" held in the spring of 1982 brought a turn for the better to Clivia's fate.
At that time, the charity exhibition received a total of about 20,000 visitors. The original ticket price was 0.5 yuan per ticket. Later, a long line of visitors came to enjoy the flowers, and the ticket price was increased to 1 yuan.
This charity exhibition allowed many people in Spring City to see the enthusiasm of the masses for Clivia.
By September of this year, a pot of Clivia in the Spring Market was sold from a few dozen yuan to 50,000 yuan, or even 100,000 yuan, or 150,000 yuan.
At this time, what is the concept of fifty thousand yuan?
Today's ten thousand yuan household is still very valuable.
In fact, many people's monthly salary is only a few dozen yuan at most. You can imagine how abnormal it is that a pot of Clivia is now sold for 100,000 yuan or 150,000 yuan.
Originally, Yang Ming didn't bother to pay attention to these things.
Because he remembered that in history, this incident only appeared in Chunshi and even the Northeast, and did not affect other places.
Now, someone is trying to get him through Tang Yun. Isn't this trying to get Yang Ming into trouble?
No matter how high the price of these clivias is, in Yang Ming's opinion, it is just like that.
Even if it sells for one million per pot, so what.
Yang Ming himself has money, but he may not have much. For ordinary citizens in Spring City, everything will be ruined and people will jump to their deaths.
"Zhou Kaixuan, have you heard of the Dutch tulip incident?"
"Boss, I've heard of it."
In the mid-17th century, tulips were introduced to Western Europe from Turkey. At that time, the quantity was small and the price was high. They were regarded by the upper class as a symbol of wealth and glory. Speculators saw the business opportunities and began to hoard tulip bulbs, driving up the price.
In 1635, the craze for buying tulips spread into a national movement. People no longer bought tulips for their intrinsic value or for viewing purposes, but expected their prices to rise indefinitely and thereby make a profit.
On February 4, 1637, the tulip market suddenly collapsed. Within six weeks, the price fell by an average of 90%.
The tulip incident was the first recorded financial bubble economy in human history. This incident indirectly led to the decline of the Netherlands, which was the financial center of Europe at the time.
The tragedy caused by the Dutch tulip incident was no less than the Black Thursday on Wall Street. Many people lost all their money because they bought tulips at high prices. They jumped into the river to commit suicide. Some people became penniless overnight from rich people and begged on the streets.
This sudden turn from heaven to hell dealt a big blow to the Netherlands.
The financial industry in the Netherlands quickly slumped, and the commercial economy also began to decline.
It is obvious that the Clivia in the spring market now is a replica of the tulip in the Netherlands.
Whether it is tulips or Clivia, in fact, it can be grown in large quantities in not only one place, but all over the world. Obviously, Clivia is simply hype, that is, some ornamental value is in it, and everything else is a bubble.
Now someone actually spends 100,000 yuan to buy a pot of Clivia, which is equivalent to exchanging a Yanjing courtyard house or even several courtyard houses for a pot of Clivia in the next 30 years. Do you think it is possible?
After Zhou Kaixuan reacted, she immediately realized the horror of this matter.
"Boss, why did that second generation let Tang Yun send that pot of Clivia to you?"
"Obviously, if I accept that pot of flowers, they will use my reputation to hype it up, and then they will profit from it."
Zhou Kaixuan was even more surprised when she heard it.
In other words, they really have to be cautious when doing things for the boss, otherwise, it is really easy to be fooled by others.
Yang Ming may not lack that little money, he cares more about his reputation now.
