I became the richest man in the world after losing my life in a vegetative state.

The seventies, or even the early eighties.

The main means of transportation in Yanjing is bicycles, which is known as the Kingdom of Bicycles.

Even bicycles are not affordable for ordinary families. Many families do not even have a bicycle.

Yang Ming sat in the high-end Hongqi car and headed from Yanjing Hotel to the National History Museum.

Within a short distance of a few hundred meters, Yang Ming saw many young men and women wearing factory uniforms passing by on bicycles.

Arrive at the entrance of the National History Museum.

The curator here, Chen Qian, has already learned in advance that Mr. Yang, chairman of Xiangjiang Empire Group, and his party will visit the National Museum of History.

Chen Qian and other management of the National Museum attach great importance to Mr. Yang's arrival.

Those Hongqi cars were parked outside.

Director Chen and others have already come out to greet them.

"Mr. Yang, I am Chen Qian, the curator here. Welcome to visit the National History Museum."

Yang Ming had already sat in the wheelchair. After shaking hands with Chen Qian and others, he started to go inside.

The National Museum of History is the country’s highest historical, cultural and artistic palace and cultural living room.

There are many cultural relics collected inside, which are very popular among domestic and foreign tourists.

He came several times in Yang Ming's previous life. However, it is now 1978, and it is still very different from when he came in his previous life.

Now Chen Qian personally led Yang Ming and others to introduce the collections in the National Museum.

Inside, you can see bronzes, porcelain, Buddha statues, jades, calligraphy and paintings, modern art, collections donated by other countries, etc.

There is a lot of space here.

Ordinary tourists can only visit within a specific small area.

Yang Ming and others came here, and Chen Qian and others took Yang Ming around.

In his previous life, he had not seen many precious collections, but now Yang Ming could see them all.

Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, Lin Xiuzhi, and even Chen Zhenhua who visited together were very shocked.

They didn't expect that the National Museum of History is really different. They can see so many collections at one time.

Come down in one morning.

Yang Ming and others took a look at it.

stop-and-go.

If Lin Xiuzhi brought a camera, she could take pictures, but the others took one look and left.

If you want to see it in the future, you can only come back later.

Unconsciously, Yang Ming came to the foreign guest service department of a national history museum.

When Yang Ming stopped, Chen Qian said: "Mr. Yang, souvenirs are sold here."

Selling souvenirs?

Yang Ming knew that many scenic spots had souvenirs.

This foreign guest service department is obviously aimed at foreign tourists.

So what kind of souvenirs are they selling?

"Director Chen, what souvenirs do you have?"

"Mainly works by some modern painters."

Works of modern painters?

Hearing what Director Chen said, Yang Ming suddenly remembered a shocking news.

In 1981, Xu Huachi, who returned from Hong Kong, spent just over 20 Hong Kong dollars to buy all the paintings in the Foreign Guest Service Department, more than 9000 calligraphy and paintings, including works by Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, Li Keran, Wu Zuoren, Jiang Zhaohe and others.

It can be said that everyone has works.

Is this where it is?

In fact, modern domestic painters such as Qi Baishi and Zhang Daqian are very famous now, but they are still not as famous as they will be in the future.

Many collectibles such as paintings and calligraphy become valuable only after the artist's death, and are not valuable during his or her lifetime.

Yang Ming hurriedly came to the front desk of the Foreign Guest Service Department. The staff here seemed very enthusiastic when they learned that Mr. Yang was a wealthy tycoon who had returned from Xiangjiang.

For the National History Museum, the calligraphy and paintings sold by the Foreign Guest Service Department are additional income, just like supermarket employees selling products in supermarkets. As long as they are sold, they will get a certain commission.

Now, apart from ticket revenue, the National Museum of History’s largest revenue should come from here.

However, many tourists are basically unwilling to spend money to buy so-called souvenirs.

Yang Ming is different.

His soul is from the future.

He knows very well that the works of domestic modern painters are not yet well-known and the prices are not high. In the next few decades, these works will basically cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of RMB.

"Mr. Yang, this is the price list of our souvenirs."

The young staff member took out a price list and handed it to Yang Ming to read.

Yang Ming took it over and looked at it. The price list was clearly written on it.

Wu Zuoren's rung is 5 yuan per square foot.

Li Keran 8 yuan.

Liu Bingsen 6 cents, 8 cents.

. . . .

These are densely packed price lists of domestic modern painters.

Yang Ming was really shocked when he saw it for the first time.

Wu Zuoren?

He is a famous painter in China, but in this era, not many people abroad have heard of him.

It only costs 5 yuan per square foot!

Li Keran, an outstanding painter in modern China and a disciple of Qi Baishi.

Now it only costs 8 yuan per square foot.

Liu Bingsen is a famous calligrapher. His works later became very popular among Asians, and now they only cost 6 cents or 8 cents per square foot.

. . .

In addition to these, there are also works by hundreds of painters.

Many of these works were commissioned by painters, calligraphers, or even the painters themselves or their families and handed over to the National History Museum. Or the works left behind by these painters and calligraphers who worked here in the past are now being sold. .

Especially selling to foreign guests who visit, you can also get a good amount of foreign exchange.

Yang Ming knew that in the future, the value of these works would increase ten thousand times, or even one hundred thousand times.

Now how could anyone but him know?

When I saw Yang Ming looking around at the price list, I thought Mr. Yang found it too expensive.

As far as these prices are concerned, they are really not low compared to the current domestic average income and average prices.

The current salary standards for relevant personnel in the six categories of areas in the country.

From level 1 to level 12, there is a big difference in salary for different levels.

其中，工人技校普通教员1级工资为186.5元，2级工资为158.5元，一直递减到11级工资为48.5元。

高等学校教员，1级工资为345元，2级工资为287.5元，一直递减到12级工资为62元。

.

. . .

放影员，1级工资为99元，2级工资为91元，递减到8级工资为35.5元。

In addition to these, the wage standards for workers in the six categories of regions are set.

For maintenance workers, the salary for level 1 is 33 yuan, and the salary for level 2 is 38.6 yuan, which increases to level 8, with a maximum of 99 yuan.

For slaughter workers, the first-level salary is 1 yuan, the second-level salary is 29 yuan, and it increases to level 2, with a maximum of 33.6 yuan.

. . .

Whether it is the wage standards of relevant personnel or the wage standards of workers.

These are iron rice bowls. After they are strictly graded, this is the fixed salary they receive every month.

These are people who are fed by the state, and their incomes are relatively high.

Those with low incomes or no income at all in cities, as well as most ordinary farmers in rural areas, may only earn a few yuan a month.

In other words, with a few yuan a month's salary, you can buy a square foot of painter's work here at the National History Museum.

After all, the works of those painters are really not cheap.

For Yang Ming, these works are really too cheap!
