Chapter 363 Opportunities in 1979



The stamp company still hasn't had time to recover, but as the policy has been passed down, more and more people are coming to this alley to exchange stamps, and they no longer do it behind people's backs.

Those who manage the market will never come here. They are only concerned with collecting money and controlling the black market transactions of materials.

Even some black markets in the capital have gradually come into the open.

Few people care about trading things like rice, grain, and cloth anymore.

Even if someone wants to intervene, they will be scolded and refuted by the very talkative Beijing residents using all kinds of policy principles.

As long as they don't trade controlled materials such as iron, copper, gold, silver, salt, and sugar, most streets in the capital have begun to turn a blind eye.

Of course, there are also those who are unlucky and encounter stubborn law enforcers...

It happened to be Sunday, and hundreds of people gathered at the stamp market.

Zhang Hongcheng was weaving in and out of the crowd with a schoolbag on his shoulder.

Fatty Hu from the next time and space doesn’t even have time to be a daughter slave this time.

He locked himself in the study, waiting for the call from his godfather in another time and space.

The timeline of another time and space has come to 2030. With the recovery of the economy, the collectibles market, including the stamp market, is booming again.

As the spring breeze of reform blows, collectors are excited.

The fat man kept rubbing his hands in the room, like a fly seeing a pile of smelly feces.

With the implementation of the reform and opening-up policy, the stamp market in Beijing has gradually recovered.

According to many bigwigs in the circle, in 1979, many collectible stamps appeared on the market.

Due to their living conditions, many collectors exchanged the stamps they had collected for many years.

But as stamp prices continued to rise, by 1980 most collectors began to be reluctant to sell.

What they meant was that if they had the chance to go back to 1979, it would be like a mouse falling into a rice jar!

The happy mouse that fell into the rice jar was named Zhang.

The big cotton mask could barely cover his wide grinning mouth.

It is said that people in the capital like to hide things and are particularly good at hiding things. He finally experienced this for real.

More than a decade has passed, and I never thought that the people of the capital still have so many good things hidden in their hands.

Is fifteen yuan expensive to exchange for a set of stamps?

People outside the alley would think it was ridiculously expensive.

But the sellers in the alley still want to raise the price.

After seeing Zhang Hongcheng shaking his head seven or eight times in a row, the seller finally took the fifteen yuan from his hand.

Zhang Hongcheng knew that he had paid too much, and the price might be more than twice as high.

A miniature sheet of Mei Lanfang's stage art issued in 1962. Only 20,000 pieces were issued nationwide, making it the miniature sheet with the smallest circulation.

But he just needs to be sure that what he has in his hand is real.

The stamp has no value to him now, its value lies in relation to the fat man in another time and space.

Fifteen dollars a piece, he is totally in the market.

He can be a sucker, as long as those who have goods are willing to trade with him.

But even if Zhang Hongcheng was determined to be a sucker, he only spent more than 370 yuan in the spontaneously formed stamp market.

In the afternoon, he turned around and went to the Liulichang flea market which had just been revived.

The Liulichang flea market has always existed, but before, people only dared to trade in ordinary civilian items.

At that time, even the chair that Emperor Qianlong had sat on was only sold as an ordinary bench by second-hand dealers.

The spring breeze of reform is quite strong. Before long, the number of stalls in Liulichang has increased four or five times, more rapid than the mushrooming of bamboo shoots after rain.

According to the information provided by the fat man with drooling mouth, 1979 was the most sincere and real period in the entire Liulichang.

If you spend twenty yuan to go to Liulichang, you can bring back a lot of real things.

It’s not that these skilled dealers don’t know the value of the things they have, but that there is simply no demand for these things in the market.

It is really impossible to sell Qianlong Tongbao coins by weight anymore. This is a real thing that happened.

With the implementation of the overseas Chinese housing policy in 1980, a large number of overseas Chinese returned and the prices of items in Liulichang began to rise three times a day.

In 1983, when the first batch of people who took the plunge into the business became rich, they also started to frequent the antique market. There were more and more fake goods in the market, and finally there was not a single real one on the entire stall.

Zhang Hongcheng was carrying a bag with great effort. In the bag were ten kilograms of various copper coins that he had just dug out from behind someone's yard.

The copper coin vendor seemed to be so distressed that he almost fainted when he quoted the price.

"Eight yuan a pound, no bargaining!"

Only those who understand the true value of this thing will not think that the price is really high.

Zhang Hongcheng didn't feel tired at all carrying these copper coins, because only about half of them were from the Qing Dynasty.

The cotton mask is still too small, and it can’t cover my crooked smile.

"What broken bottle? You sell it for twenty dollars each!"

The lady in front of the stall walked away cursing.

The man guarding the stall shook his head with a wry smile.

In the department store, bottles that look better than this one are only five dollars at most. It is really difficult to find a buyer for this pair of bottles at twenty-one.

Most of the people in their line of work were very poor in the past, and almost everyone had some good stuff hidden in their hands.

Therefore, although most of the people who know the business envy their own things, they don’t have the money to buy them.

Of course, there are also a small number of colleagues who still have some money hidden in their hands, but they dare not show off their wealth at this time and cannot explain the source of their funds.
