Rebirth of the Nine-Three Era

0337 Chapter 80 Monkey Stamps

After Yin Yuan arrived in the capital, the dry and cold climate there had no impact on him.

But Lin Wanting and her son Yin Anbang were a little uncomfortable.

In the first few days, the mother and son didn't even want to go out, they just hid in the hotel.

Fortunately, the museum holding the art exhibition is not far away, it only takes ten minutes to walk.

Yin Yuan participated in several painting exchange meetings in a few days and communicated with many painters.

Guan Shanjie is a famous painter across the country, and many painters particularly admire him.

Ask him to speak on important occasions.

In such an occasion, Yin Yuan was just a novice who broke into the art of painting for the first time. He benefited a lot from conversations with many famous painters.

The works of more than 30 painters participated in this exhibition. His series of paintings "The Catastrophe of Hainan Huanghuali" received a lot of praise.

Of course, there are also criticisms. Some people say that he is an alarmist and that the group painting is good, but the name should be changed.

Regardless of whether Yin Yuan was praised or criticized, he would not argue.

After a few days, Lin Wanting slowly adapted to the northern climate.

"Let's go visit Panjiayuan Antique Market, shall we?"

Because he brought more than 100 silver coins and more than 40 gold coins that Huo Buqiang had bought.

He knew that currently the largest antique market in the country was Panjiayuan, where there was a complete range of products, and as long as they were genuine goods, you could find a knowledgeable owner.

Of course, it’s a mixed bag, so you need to keep your eyes peeled.

Fortunately, he is here to sell gold and silver coins.

Lin Wanting said, "Let's go. I'll hold the little guy close to my chest. It won't be cold if we go outside."

Put on a cotton-padded jacket, cotton hat and cotton shoes.

I called a taxi at the door of the hotel and went to Panjiayuan Antique Market.

Lin Wanting also asked him: "Do you want to make an appointment with Secretary Yu and his wife, as well as Master Guan and his daughter?"

Yin Yuan said: "No, because I am doing business. Master Guan saw it, and even though he didn't say anything, he said in his heart that I was not doing my job properly."

The last time he flew through security check, Secretary Yu saw the gold and silver coins in his suitcase, and his eyes were full of surprise.

But he said nothing then.

Guan Yi came to participate in the art exhibition this time. She was particularly diligent. As long as an old painter came to give lectures and teach skills, she would come to every exhibition.

After listening to a few sessions, Yin Yuan became less interested.

The taxi took them to the antique market.

Although it was a cold winter, he saw many people coming from all directions.

There are many people shopping, and these people are probably collectors, or experts who want to pick up missing items.

There are many foreign faces.

It is divided into front and back courts, and there are ancient and old books on the right side of the front court.

He once bought a copy of "Collected Works of Wang Wengong" by Lao Kangtou, so he was particularly interested in these ancient and old books.

He entered a shop and deliberately asked an old man with a long beard on his chin.

"Is there "Collected Works of Wang Wen Gong"?"

The old man rolled his eyes at him and said, "Do you have it? If so, I will give you 100 million?"

Yin Yuan smiled and said: "I really have a set. Last year, I sold it to a Hong Kong antique collector for 110 million."

The old man said to him politely: "Then you are an expert. Now these old books in my shop may not be able to catch your eye."

Yin Yuan saw that his store had old books, periodicals and illustrated magazines from the Republic of China period.

What is eye-catching are the red quotations and badges, as well as picture albums, magazines, comic strips from special eras, as well as various old stamps, old envelopes and old postcards.

Of course Yin Yuan is interested in these things of his.

He took his wife and children to several used book and antique book stores, but unexpectedly saw an 80-year-old monkey ticket.

He asked the boss: "How much does this monkey ticket cost?"

The boss said: "400 yuan per piece, 32000 yuan per edition."

There were a few people watching nearby, and everyone felt that the price of this stamp had increased too much.

"I remember it was only 80 the year before last, and it rose to 300 last year, and it will be 400 this year."

The shop owner said: "Whether you like it or not, these stamps will increase in price in the future, and then you won't be able to buy them even if you want to."

Yin Yuan never expected that he would have the opportunity to encounter this precious stamp here.

He took out his wallet and found that it was only a few thousand dollars.

It’s not convenient to pay these days, and you can’t carry much money with you.

He looked nervously at the stamp collector to see if he was willing to buy it.

He had experienced a past life and he knew that the price of this stamp had been rising like a rocket.

Next year the price will rise to 800 yuan/piece, the year after that it will rise to 1500 yuan/piece, and in 97 it will rise directly to 3000 yuan/piece.

Now that I have encountered it, if I don’t get it, I won’t be able to sleep well at night.

Another stamp collector asked his boss: "Can I buy a few stamps? Can I buy 5 stamps? I only have a few thousand yuan with me."

The shop owner said: "It seems that you are still a newbie in collecting stamps. Once the full-page stamps are torn apart, the value will drop a lot in the future. I want the stamps to be full-page and will not be sold in pieces."

Several people had no choice but to leave.

Yin Yuan wanted to tell the shop owner: Leave these stamps to me, even if I leave some gold stamping for you.

In that case, I'm afraid the store owner will immediately raise the price.

Walking outside, he whispered to Wanting: "Let's go find an ancient coin shop first, exchange some money, and then come here to buy his version of the monkey ticket."

Lin Wanting said strangely: "An eight-cent stamp has increased to 400 yuan per piece. Isn't this too outrageous?"

Yin Yuan said: "The more outrageous things are yet to come, and it will definitely rise even higher in the future."

It's hard to explain this clearly.

Lin Wanting didn't ask any more questions.

Yin Yuan knew that Liulichang had the most ancient coin shops in the capital.

Unfortunately, it's still a long way from here to Liulichang Commercial Street.

He walked around the antique market and finally found a shop selling ancient silver and gold coins.

After entering the store, Yin Yuan asked the boss: "How much does the silver dollar charge?"

The boss said: "The year is different, and the purchase price is also different. The most common one is 91 pieces, and the most expensive one is [-]."

Yin Yuan asked him: "Which one is worth two thousand yuan?"

The boss took out a silver dollar with a sailboat and three birds on it and said, "This one is worth two thousand. Do you have it?"

Yin Yuan said: "Please also tell me the purchase price of other silver coins."

The boss took out a purchase price list from the drawer and let Yin Yuan read it by himself.

Yin Yuan took out a piece of paper from his pocket, which recorded the style of the silver coins in the suitcase.

帆船三鸟8枚、23年北洋22枚、大头中圆30枚、大头三年九年十年各30枚,鹰洋30枚。

The shop owner saw the piece of paper in his hand and saw him carrying a suitcase, and he was immediately shocked.

"Boss, do you have these silver coins?"

Yin Yuan said: "I have 180 silver coins in my suitcase, but I think your purchase price is a bit low. Yingyang is only 90 yuan/piece, and I paid 100 for the purchase price."

The store owner said: "The price of this silver dollar is relatively low, and there is not much room for appreciation. But I gave 200 yuan/piece for the three years of the big head, which is already a high price. I also gave 400 yuan/piece for the big head and medium dollar. The two-thousand-dollar piece of the sailing ship and three birds is a high price in the industry."

Yin Yuan laughed and said: "The boss thinks I am a novice. The big-headed Zhongyuan model is only 400 yuan/piece. How dare you say that the price is high in the industry? It is at least 600 yuan/piece."

He said: "I will sell the others to you, but for these 30 large-headed and middle-round coins, I will go to Liulichang to have a look."

The shop owner laughed and said, "I didn't expect that you are really an expert. Okay, I'll give you the 600 yuan/piece you said for this one."

Most of the prices are in line with the market price, but there are one or two models that are much lower than the market price, bullying players who only have half a bucket of water.

Yin Yuan opened the suitcase, took out the silver coins one by one, and placed them on the table.

The store owner had sharp eyes and saw something golden like gold coins in his suitcase. He quickly asked: "Boss, do you still have gold coins? Sell them to me together, and I will give you a suitable price."

Yin Yuan showed him a gold coin and asked him to quote.

The boss's eyes lit up. He wanted to offer fifteen thousand yuan, but he thought that the other party was an expert, so he said, "I'll give you fifteen thousand eight hundred, okay?"

Yin Yuan said: "Sixteen thousand pieces, I won't look for another one. Otherwise, you can just pay me the silver dollar."

The store owner was unwilling to give up such a big business, so he nodded in agreement.

After calculation, he had to pay 75.87 to Yin Yuan.

The boss took out the money from the office and gave it to Yin Yuan.

Fortunately, the suitcase that Yin Yuan brought was big enough, and almost 76 yuan did not fill it up.

He told his boss: "I still have so many silver and gold coins at home. This time, because I am attending an art exhibition, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with them, so I only brought half of them."

The boss asked him where he was from, and Yin Yuan said he was from Jiangming, Guangdong.

The boss said that either I will fly to Jiangming to collect those gold and silver coins from you. If you have these or other ancient coins in the future, I will collect them here.

He and Yin Yuan exchanged phone numbers.

Knowing that Yin Yuan participated in the art exhibition at the National Museum, he said with admiration: "It turns out that he is still a great painter. If you have any business in this area in the future, you can contact me."

I know that Yin Yuan will go back in a few days.

He said: "Send me a message when you get back, and I will go to Jiangming to find you."

Yin Yuan agreed.

Walking outside, Lin Wanting asked him: "Didn't you receive thirty-five thousand of these gold and silver coins from Huo Buqiang?"

Yin Yuan scratched his head and said: "Yes, I should have given him 5000 yuan/piece of gold coins. I didn't know how to give him 500 yuan/piece of gold coins at that time. After I go back, I have to give him another 17 yuan/piece, otherwise I will My conscience will be troubled.”

Lin Wanting said: "I found that you are smarter than a ghost. Something worth thirty-five thousand yuan was resold for 75 yuan, which is a twenty-fold increase."

Yin Yuan said: "I was told that I would give him another 17 yuan when I returned, which is equivalent to 20 yuan. I made more than three times the money when he changed hands. This is normal."

He said: "Go quickly and buy the monkey ticket from the store just now. If you go late, I'm afraid someone else will buy it."

When I came to the antique shop just now, I saw an old man in a peaked cap, with a pipe in his mouth and narrowed his eyes chatting with the shop owner.

Next to him stood his wife.

Yin Yuan quietly said to Wanting: "That old man is Master Huang Yunyu, the painter of the monkey ticket. Yesterday, he told some of us about his painting experience."

Lin Wanting was surprised and said: "That stamp was painted by Teacher Huang?"

At this time, Huang Yunyu also saw Yin Yuan taking his wife and son to visit the antique market.

He chuckled and said: "Master Guan said that you, Comrade Xiao Yin, just can't concentrate on painting. Otherwise, you can achieve higher achievements in painting. I also refute that he is rigid and does not know how to experience life. I think a painter must first Only by living your own characteristics can you draw a realm that is different from others. Young people must have their own characteristics whether in painting or in life. I admire you."

Yin Yuan and Lin Wanting both greeted him and his wife.

"Hello, teacher, mistress, there are no other activities today, so I came to the antique market specially."

Huang Yunyu saw that he was holding a suitcase in his hand, which felt heavy. He smiled and said, "Young man, it's not just a suitcase of money, is it?"

Yin Yuan said: "The teacher really guessed it right. I brought a suitcase of money with me to the antique market to see if I would be lucky enough to come across the monkey stamp you painted in 80. Just now I saw the boss There is an edition here, so I came here to buy it.”

Huang Yunyu said in surprise: "Is it true?"

Yin Yuan opened his suitcase, took out thirty-two thousand from it, handed it to the boss and said, "Boss, I'll buy your monkey stamps."

The boss smiled happily and took the money and handed him the stamps.

He also asked the boss: "Do you know anyone who still has this monkey stamp?"

The boss said: "This thing is something you can only meet but cannot ask for."

Yin Yuan put away the stamps and walked outside with Master Huang and his wife.

Huang Yunyu said: "I drew this monkey ticket. The author didn't ask here, but asked other people. How many copies do you want?"

Yin Yuan said: "I still have more than 72 yuan in my suitcase, and I can buy more than 20 editions."

He thought it would be worthwhile even if he spent all the money on buying monkey tickets.

Thirty years later, the price of each monkey ticket has increased to more than 30, and one edition is 5000 million. The value-added speed is unparalleled.

Huang Yunyu said: "I still have three editions of monkey tickets at home. I will keep one edition for myself, and I will exchange the other two editions with you. If I take your money, you will say behind your back that this old man Huang is a bad old man who is greedy for money. I see you The paintings of your son are particularly childlike, if you give me those paintings, I will give you the second edition of the monkey ticket, how about it?"

Yin Yuan said: "Teacher Huang, you will suffer a big loss like this. Compared with you, my painting level is still at the level of a primary school student. Those paintings of mine are not of any artistic standard at all. The teacher asked me to give them to you. "

Huang Yunyu said: "What is artistic level? Those paintings of yours are full of childishness and are very well done. They are even more interesting than the group of paintings you participated in the art exhibition. If I were to trade with you, I would have taken advantage of you." "

Yin Yuan thought: Now an edition of Monkey Ticket is worth [-], and a painting of his own can be worth [-] or [-]. Now the value is almost the same. From this point of view, it is an equal exchange, and Master Huang does not suffer any loss.

But the price of the monkey ticket will double next year, and it will double every year. It is impossible for this phenomenon to happen when I draw my son's children's paintings.

He said happily: "I will go back to the hotel to get it for you now."

Huang Yunyu said: "I bought a piece of land near the museum and built a courtyard, several houses and a lotus pond."

He said that he had a car coming from outside, and he could drive Yin Yuan's family of three to the hotel, and then pick up the paintings and go to his residence for lunch. His chef is good at cooking.
