Siheyuan, I became a commercial tycoon in the culinary world
Chapter 50 Selling Gold Bricks
"Hahahaha..." He Yuzhu finally couldn't help laughing out loud, "Okay! Since my Yushui cares so much about his classmates, then bring two meat buns to his deskmate! Forget about the other things..."
"Why? Two chubby kids, my deskmate can't eat enough..."
"Yushui, if you bring him so much food at once, he won't be grateful to you. He will think that your family has a lot of money and can't finish the food, so it's only natural to give him food. He will ask for what he wants every day..."
"Ah!...Is that so! Then I will buy two meat buns for him today!..." He Yushui nodded helplessly.
The brother and sister ordered a bowl of noodles with soybean paste, two plates of meat dumplings, four fried dough sticks, two steamed buns, and also ordered two meat buns to be packed for Xiaoyu. The total cost was one dollar.
He Yushui was very satisfied with the meal. He stuffed the two meat buns into his schoolbag and said to He Yuzhu, "Brother, let's go!..."
After paying the money, He Yuzhu continued to ride his bicycle carrying Yu Shui to Honghongxing Primary School.
More than ten minutes later, He Yuzhu sent He Yushui to the school gate, and He Yushui jumped in under the gaze of his brother.
He Yuzhu looked at his watch and it was still early.
I thought to myself, now Shen Teng doesn’t require me to go to work on time, and said he would raise my salary to 80 yuan, but I haven’t even worked for a few days?
Seeing that I have little money on me, why not go to the gold and silver jewelry market and sell these five gold bars and two gold bricks together to see how much money I can get? How can I solve my current financial difficulties?
When He Yu thought about it, he made up his mind and decided not to go to Fengze Garden, but went directly to the market.
Before entering the market, he found a deserted place, touched the diamond ring on his hand and entered the space, walked to the bedside table in the master bedroom, took out the little goldfish and two gold bricks, and the original gold bars, and stuffed them directly into the canvas bag he had prepared. Then he touched the diamond ring on his hand again and left the space, and by the way, threw the bicycle directly into the space yard, and then went straight to the gold jewelry trading market.
The gold jewelry trading market in the 50s had already taken shape, although not as large-scale or as frequent as in later generations. It also attracted some businessmen who had a special affection for gold.
At this time, the market is lined with quaint shops, displaying a variety of gold and silver jewelry and raw gold materials. The air is filled with a faint metallic luster and a sense of historical sedimentation.
But there are very few buyers in front of the major stores.
It is conceivable that in this age when people could not even fill their stomachs too much, how could ordinary people have the ability to buy these gold and silver jewelry? Therefore, the people who could come here were all the rich and noble guests in the past.
The time period when He Yuzhu came today should have been the golden trading period, but there were few people coming to many stores.
He Yuzhu shuttled through the trading market, his eyes wandering between the shops, looking for reliable and reputable buyers.
After some inquiries and comparisons, he finally chose a gold shop that seemed to have a stable business and a good reputation, and prepared to sell his gold bars and gold bricks.
As you walk into the gold shop, an even stronger metallic scent hits you in the face.
The shop owner was an elderly man wearing a pair of reading glasses, and was concentrating on identifying a piece of gold he had just received. He Yuzhu coughed lightly, which caught the shop owner's attention.
"Sir, I have some gold bars and gold bricks here. I would like to ask you to help me see how much they are worth." He Yuzhu said as he took out the gold bars and gold bricks wrapped tightly in cloth from the canvas bag and placed them carefully on the counter.
Upon hearing this, the shop owner immediately put down his work and said, "Little brother, these gold bricks and gold bars are not only important to weigh, but also to look at their ingredients. If you really want to sell them, I can help you take a look..."
"Okay, can you help me check the composition first and then estimate the price? But the composition of my gold brick is very high, I won't sell it at a lower price..."
"Whether the content is high or not, I have to see it to know. If it is really 100% gold, I will buy it at a high price..." After saying that, he took He Yuzhu's gold bar, put on his glasses and began to examine it carefully.
He Yuzhu sat nearby waiting and watching patiently.
The shopkeeper looked at it for a long time, then suddenly put down the gold brick in his hand and picked up the gold bar to look at it.
"Little brother, although your gold brick is good, it is not very pure. Let's do this. I will pay 30 yuan per ounce. For the other five gold bars, which are slightly better in quality, I will pay 5 yuan per ounce..."
When He Yuzhu heard the price he quoted, he took the gold bars and gold bricks on the counter and left.
Just kidding, I came from the future after all, so I naturally know the prices in the gold market.
The price of gold in the 50s was not low. One tael of gold was sold for more than 95 yuan. Now this boss is trying to lower the price so much. Does he think I am a country bumpkin with no knowledge?
This kind of boss can only bully those poor people who have never seen the world. He is too lazy to bother with such a person.
"Hey, little brother, don't leave so quickly! I haven't finished talking yet. The content of your gold brick is very high, but I have to buy it back to make jewelry, and I have to make it carefully before I can sell it.
Besides, you know, the economy is a bit depressed now, all industries are in recession, and business is not good. You have to make some money for me!"
He Yuzhu stopped when he heard this.
What the boss said does make sense. These days, materials are in short supply and the prices of gold and silver are under state control. In order to save money, many vendors have to control costs privately. There is nothing they can do about it.
"Then how much are you offering per tael?" He Yuzhu stopped and asked.
"Then 50 yuan per two taels will do." The old shop owner held up five fingers.
Seeing that he was still trying to lower the price, He Yuzhu pretended to leave again.
The shopkeeper was anxious, holding him and whispering, "My little brother, where are you going with these two pounds of gold on your back? Aren't you afraid..."
"What's there to be afraid of? These are things left by my grandparents. I can't make ends meet now, so I'm exchanging them for money. But if you can't get a good price for them, I'll just take them back and keep them..." He Yuzhu said softly.
"How about 60, little brother?"
“Not for sale…”
"So how much do you want to sell it for?"
"80 per tael, not a cent less..." He Yuzhu insisted.
The old shop owner looked at him helplessly and said, "Aren't you making things difficult for me? 80 yuan per tael, it's so expensive, how much can I earn?"
"Boss, let's be frank. The price of gold is at least 95 yuan per tael now. I'll give you 80 yuan. I'm selling this because I can't afford to open the door at home.
If you don’t want it, forget it. I’ll go ask other stores.”
After saying this, He Yuzhu turned around and left.
