Reselling Foreign Exchange Certificate
"What business?"
Han Chunming originally thought that Cheng Jianjun had ruined their grocery store business and that he had to go back to collect junk. He didn't expect his good brother to think of a new business so quickly.
Zhang Zheng smiled and told her about his new business.
"A few days ago, when I was shopping, I passed by the Friendship Store and wanted to go in to buy something. Then, I found a foreigner who passed by and exchanged some foreign exchange certificates with him.
You also know how rare foreign exchange certificates are. When I saw that the foreigner had a lot of foreign exchange certificates, I exchanged them all. What did you do after that?”
"F * ck, don't keep me in suspense. Tell me quickly!”Han Chunming was listening excitedly, but Zhang Zheng had piqued his interest. He instantly became irritable.
Zhang Zheng saw that he was anxious and did not keep him in suspense. He continued,
"Later, when I went to the Friendship Store again, I met someone waiting at the door, asking if anyone wanted to sell foreign exchange certificates.
I was also curious at that time, so I asked them about the purchase price. In the end, I found out that they were willing to increase the price by 5,000 yuan for the 10,000 yuan foreign exchange certificate that I exchanged for 2,000 yuan!”
"So, as long as you sell all the foreign exchange certificates in your hands, you can make a net profit of 3,000 yuan.”
Han Chunming quickly calculated in his mind and immediately came up with the price increase.
Zhang Zheng shook his head." Although 3,000 yuan was a lot of profit, I didn't sell the foreign exchange certificates because I thought they were probably just scalpers who specialized in buying and selling.”
"What does Yellow Ox mean?" This was the first time Han Chunming had heard this term. He immediately caught the main point and asked curiously.
Only then did Zhang Zheng realize that the current era might not have given birth to scalpers, so he explained with a smile,
"A scalper is similar to a broker. They act as a middleman to earn the difference in price.”
"Oh, I see!" Han Chunming suddenly realized something and continued," What happened after that?”
Zhang Zheng organized his words and then elaborated,
"After that, I tried to negotiate the price with that person and found that the highest price he could accept was 18,000 dollars.
After knowing the price, I knew what to do. After that, I secretly asked a few other foreign exchange collectors and found out that the highest price they could accept was 20,000 yuan!”
"Twenty thousand dollars!" Han Chunming was shocked by the price and muttered to himself," So, as long as you sell the foreign exchange certificates in your hands, you'll make a net profit of 8,000 yuan. Is this robbery?”
Zhang Zheng looked at Han Chunming's shocked expression and couldn't help but laugh." Look at you. How are you going to do bigger business in the future?"”
Although he said that, in fact, his performance at that time wasn't much better than Han Chunming's.
This was the 8,000 yuan in 1977, not the 8,000 yuan in the future. Without considering the increase in wages, ordinary workers would have to save for decades without eating or drinking!
More importantly, in the process of making money, Zhang Zheng basically just moved his mouth and easily earned money. Money came too easily.
This made Zhang Zheng sigh. Today was really an era of gold. As long as you dared to think and do it, any kind of miracle could happen.
Han Chunming had also recovered from his shock. He shook Zhang Zheng's body excitedly and said," Zhengzi, we're rich! You're too awesome!"”
"Low profile, low profile. There are so many people here. "Zhang Zhengyun casually said as if he didn't care about this money.
Zhang Zheng's reminder reminded Han Chunming of where he was. It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on his head, and he instantly regained his calm.
However, his trembling hands still showed the excitement in his heart.
"Right, Masako, there's a problem here. How do you communicate with foreigners?”
Han Chunming, who had calmed down a lot, suddenly thought of another key problem.
Zhang Zheng smiled and explained softly," How else can we communicate? Let's communicate in English.”
"You know English and can communicate with foreigners?”Han Chunming looked at Zhang Zheng suspiciously. He felt like he didn't know this good brother of his.
At the last gathering, Zhang Zheng had played a piano piece on the spot, which was enough to surprise him. Today, he heard that he had learned English at some point in time. It was really unbelievable.
If they hadn't grown up together, Han Chunming would have thought that this was the first time he had met him.
Facts speak louder than words. Zhang Zheng didn't waste any words and directly showed him a standard London accent on the spot.
Unfortunately, his behavior was like playing the lute to a cow. Han Chunming couldn't understand what he was saying at all.
"Alright, stop talking. I believe you, okay? You're just bullying me because I don't understand English.”
Han Chunming's self-esteem was probably hurt. If he knew English, he would have signed up for the college entrance examination a long time ago. He wouldn't have lost the courage to even try.
Zhang Zheng did not bully his good brother too much. Seeing that he was getting anxious, he stopped talking in time.
