Chapter 638 Luo Gongzi

Ning Weimin's description at this time is the same as Mr. Luo in the cartoon "Jigong Cricket Fight".

Seeing the little cricket conjured by Jigong bite the big rooster away.

That was a complete brain explosion, cognitive subversion!

His eyes were wide open, his mouth was wide open, wishing he could stuff an egg into it!

Kang Shude glanced at him, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he couldn't hold back his smile.

Because he was afraid that he would not be able to hold back and really laugh, so he stopped looking at him.

He only looked at the blue sky with his eyes, assumed a posture of a master, and taught him a lesson.

"Do you think my luck was pretty good back then? But I want to tell you that luck is an illusory thing, and it can't be counted at all. If you say you have it, you have it, and if you don't have it, you don't have it. Because in the end, doing this Well, courage, knowledge, and vision are fundamental. Luck is just a partial appearance of these things. It may even be an illusion."

"The drummer must be knowledgeable. Otherwise, if he sees a baby, he may mistake it for a waste product. If the drummer has no real knowledge in his stomach, he will be afraid of 'punching' when he sees everything. He dare not accept any goods that he does not understand. God will send it to him. The opportunity to make a fortune will be missed. If the drummer has no desire for knowledge and deep understanding, he will just point to luck and dawdle around. Then there will be no luck at all.”

"Don't believe me, let me tell you something about the past. On August 1945, 8, Japan surrendered and the country was restored. You know that? In the next few months, the Japanese in the capital were burned Like wasps, they were all in a hurry to retreat back to the country, and they were in a hurry. Because the boat tickets were tight and they didn't wait for anyone, they left in a hurry. Many things can only be sold at low prices, which undoubtedly caused short-term second-hand goods. The golden period of the industry, so that the whole city who played the small drums followed suit and made a fortune."

"There are even a lot of things that cannot be sold for a while, and the Japanese can only pile them up at the gate of the street, with a white note saying 'Freedom to take'. 'Freedom to take' is a Japanese word, and in our words it means 'take whatever you want' At that time, in the alleys where many Japanese lived, there were common people who came to 'collect foreign goods', and everyone really took advantage of this."

"At that time, of course I was the happiest one. First of all, I was able to straighten my back and be a man. It was relieved to see the arrogant Japanese in the past like rats crossing the street, and became anxious all day long. Secondly, I did make money. Everyday business I was too busy. During that time, I went to the Japanese camp and cut the Japanese flesh all the time. Who let them lose the battle and want to escape back? Knocking on the Japanese mourning drum, no Wicked, but feel at ease."

"I went early, and I caught up with the fact that the Japanese were becoming sellers. I was ignorant and deceitful. I can often buy excellent things for the price of three melons, two dates, and a pot of vinegar. If I go late, Even when the Japanese are gone, they can almost always pick up something so they don't come back empty-handed."

"At that time, I picked up a stack of big plates with 'Arita Ware' written on it. It was a famous porcelain kiln in Japan, just like our Jingdezhen. I also 'held' two hair clippers, also from Japan. Goods. Chachacha, the hair is pushed up very quickly, without pinching it at all. But the most profitable time was when I participated in a live auction of a Japanese trading company. Purely based on vision and insight, I made a lot of money."

"At that time, in order to clear the warehouse and sell it, the trading company called several powerful second-hand dealers to look at the goods. Mr. Song also received the invitation. But because he had other important matters to discuss that day, he had to temporarily appoint me to represent him Attendance. It should be said that this Japanese trading company is quite shrewd and wants us to compete with each other and sell at a good price. But they made a mistake in misjudging the situation and failing to understand our national conditions.”

"You know, in the past, all walks of life were governed by guilds, and there were basic rules for how to operate. No one could violate it, otherwise they would definitely be punished by the guild. The consequences would be much more serious than being fined by the industry and commerce department today. Well, we can’t do it anymore. Originally, drummers had rules, and colleagues had to “group together” and deal with the cargo owners in unison. So the Japanese wanted us to compete with each other and fight each other, which was a miscalculation.”

"What's more, there were too many businesses to do at that time, so we couldn't be busy at all, and there was no need to fight each other among colleagues. As a result, the Japanese were very embarrassed at the scene. When a product was brought out, the price was all upside down. What does it mean? That is to say, the first person to bid will definitely be the highest, and the rest will bid lower and lower. The price will never be higher than the former. Using this method to force the Japanese to sell To the first bidder."

"As for the people who bought the goods, they will never speak first again next time, and will give the opportunity to others to buy the goods. That's it, the seniors are the first, and the young people are the last. It will start over in this order."

"Even if there are large quantities of products that are obviously lucrative, they can't compete. In such a situation, even if everyone wants it, there is still a tacit understanding among colleagues. As long as one person asks, the rest of the people who are interested in competing will not bid. Yes. To fight means not to fight, and this is the secret signal of everyone’s attitude.”

"The person who made the first bid will understand that he can't take it all alone, and then he will say that the funds are not enough, and negotiate with his peers on the spot, how to jointly fund and win it. It is still funded according to seniority and distributed in proportion. It is friendly and polite, very harmonious. Only the Japanese are greatly disappointed and dejected. They are destined to be disgraced."

"At the auction that day, since I was the youngest one, I naturally got the least benefit. This is understandable. But there was a batch of unpopular new products that no one wanted at all, so I picked up a big leak , took advantage. It was a batch of natural science models, instruments and other teaching aids and exhibits. There were also some mineral-related specimens, such as galena and rhizophyllite."

"At that time, although the Japanese vigorously advocated at the scene, 'This is very good, there are people who will make a lot of money', hoping that the second-hand dealers will pay for the purchase. But all the second-hand dealers at the scene just saw it as a joke, and no one believed it at all. They are all afraid of smashing their hands, so naturally no one bids. I don’t even want to spend a dime. Only me, because Professor Yan, who once sold Zijin wine glasses to Yenching University, went to Yenching University with Mr. Song and saw it. These things in the laboratory. Knowing that these things are very valuable and there is a shortage in the university, I will decisively take them."

"In this way, I made a windfall. I bought this batch of goods for 2 oceans. Later, through Professor Yan, I resold them to Yenching University and earned more than [-] oceans. It can be said that it is the worst thing I have ever done in my life. The sweet business is also the biggest business, and I even earned more than all other second-hand dealers that day. Tell me, is this luck? Or knowledge, vision and courage?"

"So I have to say, it's really thanks to the fact that I bought those two wine glasses from the Russian woman back then. That business not only gave me insight, but also gave me capital, and also gave me experience and understanding A lot of knowledge. If it weren’t for the previous round, I wouldn’t be able to make the same money as the latter one. I also can’t see the strangeness of these two chess pieces today.”

"What's more, having said that, if I hadn't taken advantage of Japan's surrender, I would have made a fortune in a short period of time. In 1946, how could I have the money to buy the Ma's Garden? There is no Ma's Garden , where did you get these two copper cranes. Then tell me, is this your luck today? You are so shy, it’s a shame. A blind cat who also encounters dead mice is also a good cat ! If you are arrogant, you are 'stinky'. I don't even bother to beat you..."

Ning Weimin was completely stunned by the question, and was dumbfounded.

The leisurely and complacent energy just now has all gone and dissipated.

At this time, he undoubtedly restored the scene at the end of the cartoon—singing a song and laughing, Mr. Luo became a big dumb...
