After getting in the car, Jiang Wu shook his head: "These profiteers are very good at beating snakes with sticks. They talk about brothers in the blink of an eye, and they don't let go of the eagle before they see the rabbit."

"Actually, he is not at a loss. The more plans and samples he has, the stronger his company is. Even though the company only started last year, Liu Luan and Li Jia are both talented people."

"Why do you say that?" Jiang Wu asked.

"Li Jia is very familiar with the performance of various brands of equipment, which is different from ordinary agents who are only familiar with one or two brands of their own; and Liu Luan does not have any unique preference for which brand of equipment we use, which shows that

What?"

"What does it mean?" Jiang Wu still didn't understand.

"It shows that no matter how we configure it, he can get the equipment at a very suitable price." Zhou Zhi said: "If it is a second-hand or third-hand agent, he cannot get the price so low, so he must purchase the equipment from the port city.

There’s also the ability to clear levels quickly.”

"Is it possible... to smuggle?"

"Looking at the plan he showed us before, the business qualification tax stamps and stickers are quite complete." Zhou Zhi nodded: "But we have to be careful. Brother Jiang, you have great energy. You can check it out if it's convenient."

"Um."

"Elbow, you said before that there is still a solution to the Cultural Center matter...?"

"Yes." Zhou Zhi said, "The simplest solution...let someone do it."

"Don't make trouble, who is the contractor? After the contract is completed and you don't earn a cent, you still have to spend hundreds of thousands for renovation?" The godfather found it incredible: "If there is such a fool, then I have to ask, how did he earn these hundreds of thousands before?

Coming?"

"Uh, maybe... selling stamps?"

"Don't make trouble, elbow!" Jiang Wu almost lost his temper after hearing this: "There's a car driving here!"

"Cousin Dayong is currently considering corporate transformation..."

"Don't make trouble, you idiot!" This time it was the godfather's turn to scold him: "I don't know what kind of virtue He Dayong is? He only has two broken stalls, but he is still a business? He is still transforming?!"

"Dad, how can you discriminate against people?" Zhou Zhi expressed dissatisfaction: "Brother Dayong has obtained a business license. Hey, you are the one who handled the cultural venue operating license. You also taught him not to show that kind of video to embarrass you.

With..."

"Don't talk about it, money! Does he have so much money?"

"He doesn't need that much money. The required funds can be completely solved through credit financing between relatives and private loans. This is the characteristic of our Greater China region..."

"I believed your lies. I, Old Wu, don't know what your family's fortune is. After paying the Zaoling Bridge fundraiser, the river has dried up and the sea has been clean, right? I've visited your ancestral graves in Baimi Township, and I haven't seen them before.

The old Wu family has made great contributions to future generations..."

Just laughing and joking like this, a few people arrived in front of Gongmei Shopping Mall.

Manager Fei and a rather elegant middle-aged urban beauty beside him stood chatting inside the glass door of Gongmei Shopping Mall. When he saw the car approaching, he quickly opened the glass door and walked out: "Brother Zhou Xian, Brother Jiang, Director Wu, are you here too? Let me introduce you.

This is my wife, who came here to do something special for us today and serve our big customers well!"

The beauty took out a nice-looking small metal box from Kun's bag, opened it and pulled out three business cards: "Classmate Zhou, Political Commissar Jiang, Bureau Wu, hello, I am Fei Guan's lover Liu Yushu, and I now work in the business department of Shudu Branch of Bank of China.

, I came here this time under the entrustment of Gongmei to complete the entrusted transfer business for you, Zhou Zhi."

"Let's go and talk in my manager's office." Manager Fei said with a smile on his face: "I'm telling you, my brother just sent away a few people who came for interviews this morning. This time the Blue Army stamps have created a national stamp product."

Auction record, our first auction of Shudu Gongmei was an instant hit!"

"That was not the idea given by Zhou Zhi." Liu Yushu smiled very friendly: "Off-site customers entered the market through local agents, which expanded the market immediately."

"I just mentioned that it is quite difficult to turn an idea into a reality." Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "It is only Uncle Fei and Gongmei who have such strength. They took care of the matter in just two days."

, Uncle Fei is certainly the one who deserves the top spot!"

The room arranged by Manager Fei this time had not been to the room that Gu Zhenduo and Chi Xueli had visited last time when they brought Zhou Zhi to buy toys, calligraphy and paintings. It seemed to be both a VIP room and a showroom, with thick carpets on the floor, bright and clean windows, and surrounding areas.

Countless exquisite porcelains, jades, and bronzes are displayed in the glass display cabinet with the bottom of the cabinet at the level of the visitor's chest.

On the surrounding walls, there are various calligraphy and paintings by famous ancient and modern artists.

"How old is Baishi's painting now?" Zhou Zhi turned his head and found Xu Beihong, Zhang Daqian, and even Shi Tao and Zhu Da, but not Qi Baishi.

"Eighty to one hundred." Manager Fei said: "In fact, Baishi's paintings have great potential for appreciation. If you like them, I can find many for you."

"I'm just asking." Zhou Zhi smiled: "You haven't put it in your pocket yet, but Uncle Fei is already preparing to take it out?"

The godfather still doesn't know why he came here. It sounds like there was some business between the two of them: "Zhou Zhi, do you want to buy something from Manager Fei? Do your parents agree?"

"Of course they won't agree." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "But my mother said that as long as I bring 8,000 yuan back, she won't care about me."

"Eight thousand?!" The godfather was surprised: "What did you sell? It couldn't be He... He..."

"That's not the case." Zhou Zhi quickly waved his hands for fear that his godfather would say: "It's not that thing."

Manager Fei quickly said: "If you have good things to sell, elbow, don't forget to take care of our Gongmei. We are going to continue the spring and autumn auctions."

"There are quite a lot of things, but I'm afraid you won't accept them." Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "Imitation porcelain from the late Qing Dynasty, Yongzheng and Qianlong Dynasties, and monochrome glaze folk kiln porcelain from the Song and Yuan Dynasties, do you want them?"

"Come on, buy one and get two free on Jiadao Xian official kiln porcelain from me." Manager Fei expressed disdain: "You buy one piece of Kang Yong Qian and I will give you two pieces of Ji Dao Xian."

"As for the single-color porcelain from the folk kilns of the Song Dynasty, it is just like the money from the Song Dynasty... If you can get a high-quality top-grade porcelain from the Juntai kiln or Guan kiln, I will accept it."

"That's so willful..." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "I'll accept it if you have it, but you can't just sell it to me as a Jun kiln or an official kiln."

Most famous kilns are divided into official kilns and private kilns, and porcelain collections generally refer specifically to official kilns, which are the kind of porcelain offered to the royal family.

Generally, there will be a circle of private kilns next to the entrance of the famous official kiln. They also produce similar porcelain, most of which are far inferior in quality to the official kilns, and only a few are of similar quality.

This kind of porcelain from private kilns, which is of inferior quality to that of official kilns, is particularly easy to be used by sellers to deceive people. It is impossible for scientific instruments to detect it.

"Forget it, I'd rather trouble you to give us some guidance on how to appreciate the collection here."

"Brother, you are definitely an expert. You don't need me to introduce you." Manager Fei smiled and said: "Our Gongmei actually collected a lot of good things. Of course, in order to respond to the country's call and actively earn foreign exchange, we basically still use porcelain that is easy to carry and consign.

Mainly with calligraphy and painting..."

There is no way around this. If we look at this era twenty years from now, many people will find it unbelievable.

But now the country urgently needs to expand foreign trade and introduce capital and technology, and these things require foreign exchange reserves as a foundation.

The country's foreign exchange reserves have doubled continuously in recent years, rising from US$5 billion in 1989 to US$20 billion now.

There is a famous Triffin ratio about this data - that is a concept proposed by American economist Triffin after World War II: the proportional relationship between a country's international reserves and its imports, the lower limit is 2%

10. The upper limit is 40%. Generally, the international reserves held by a country should be able to meet the country's import needs for one quarter, that is, three months.
