Whether it was watching period dramas or reading fanfiction, Li Ang felt that life in this dynasty was bitter and poor.
However, after he transmigrated, he realized that the hardships and poverty were real, but the lives of the people were still colorful!
According to the colleagues in the station, the scrap collection station and the commission shop were enemies!
If it weren't for the commission shop, the collection of the waste collection station would have skyrocketed.
Li Ang did not turn around in the alley today. Instead, he continued to ride along the street on his tricycle with a map of Sijiu City in his hand.
This map was from the station. Li Ang happened to be an outsider and was unfamiliar with the city. He had to collect waste on the streets, so Station Chief Zhao gave him the map.
There were actually quite a few shops on the street, doing all kinds of things.
Even though it was a working day, there were still quite a few people on the road.
There were people walking, riding, and driving.
Occasionally, they would see a bus that was very characteristic of this era drive past. The bus was packed with people.
Li Ang wandered around according to the map and found a few commission shops, which were also called " trust shops " or " commission shops."
In addition to the information he had obtained from his colleagues, he knew that there were four most famous commission stores in the city: Dongdan, Xisi, New North Bridge, and Caishikou.
Nowadays, there was a shortage of goods. No matter what you bought, you basically needed a ticket.
However, every household only had a limited quota every month. What if they exceeded it?
One of the methods was to entrust the store. The common people would put their unused items in the entrusted store to sell. If their homes lacked something, they would also go to the entrusted store to save money and tickets, thus relieving the lack of daily necessities.
According to the information he got from his colleagues, the earliest commission firm in Beijing was the Datong commission firm that opened in the early 1940s. At that time, it was just outside the gate.
At the end of the 1940s, the " drummers " who bought second-hand goods from the streets were replaced by state-owned entrusted stores and state-owned material recycling companies. Some " drummers " who had no criminal records became official employees of entrusted stores or recycling companies.
In the 1950s, commission shops became the favorite of the common people. They were not only convenient and flexible, but also suitable for the needs of the common people at that time. They were also fair in trading and reasonable in trading. The client and the customer negotiated the transaction price.
In addition, people's wages were not high, and goods were scarce. With the supply of tickets, money might not be able to buy things. Only in the commission store could one enjoy the thrill of " open supply."
There were two ways to entrust the shop to purchase. The first was to entrust it, which was more expensive than selling it directly to the shop. Both parties would discuss a suitable price, and the shop would charge a handling fee after the item was sold.
The handling fee for general items was 7%, and for furniture and bicycles, it was 4%. If you are in a hurry to spend money, you can also entrust the shop to appraise the price and leave with the money. However, the price would definitely be lower because they would have to bear the risk of not being able to sell it for you.
Most of the items in the entrusted store were daily necessities from the common people's homes, such as old clothes, leather jackets, bedding, watches, pocket watches, cameras, gramophones, clocks, and so on.
According to his colleagues at the scrap collection station, this entrusted store was actually a " special industry " and was directly supervised by the public security department.
If an unknown object was sent over, it would definitely be a phone call and the police would arrive immediately.
Take bicycles as an example. If one wanted to entrust such a large item to be sold, they had to go through the formalities and prove it. It was not as easy as buying and selling second-hand cars in the future. The management was especially strict.
The first thing Li Ang did was go to the entrusted store in New North Bridge on Dongzhimen Inner Street. He did not necessarily want to buy anything, nor did he think of buying a lot of antiques while they were worthless, because it was not worth it!
Antiques were valuable, but it also depended on the time!
The price of an antique in the sixties was not much different from the price in the seventies.
Even in the 1980s and 1990s, the price would indeed skyrocket, but how much would it increase?
Of course, if Li Ang did not have a cheat, he would definitely take the initiative to collect some antiques. It would be a good choice to sell them for money or keep them for his family.
But now, with the golden finger of the Pan-Multiverse Network Center and the valley space gifted by nature from his previous life, it was just that the time was not right. If it was changed, he could become a millionaire in minutes!
However, there was only half a year left until the special period. Li Ang was also an outsider and a suspicious person with an unknown identity.
Even if Old Pei had entrusted him with a job and allowed him to live in the courtyard house, Li Ang would not believe that he was fine.
"Forget it. There are definitely still people watching me now. The more I do, the more mistakes I make.”
"Even if you want to collect them, you can wait until after the opening. I remember that antiques could be bought directly in department stores at that time. They were all authentic and not expensive.”
"Especially those famous painters in recent times. I remember that their works were all cheap at the beginning. Isn't that good?”
With this thought in mind, Li Ang parked the tricycle and carried the little loli Pei Jiaxin into the commission shop at New North Bridge.
As soon as he entered, Li Ang could feel the salesperson's scrutinizing gaze.
Don't underestimate these people. Those who could earn a living in the commission shop were either people who had been walking the streets and drumming drums, or the next generation who had inherited their father's vision and knowledge. Their vision was definitely not to be said.
The reason why those petty thieves didn't dare to sell their items in the commission shop was because they couldn't even pass this test.
When the salesperson saw Li Ang walk in with the little loli in his arms and the little loli was very close to Li Ang, her gaze immediately eased.
At the very least, at first glance, Li Ang was a harmless person.
Li Ang did not say anything. Instead, he carried the little loli and walked around the commission shop.
As expected of one of the four largest commission stores. Not only was the entrance huge, but the interior area of the store was even larger.
There were rows of counters and rows of cabinets against the wall. There was a separation between buying and selling items.
Li Ang saw an old comrade holding a vase and talking to a middle-aged woman. In the end, they negotiated a price before issuing the bill. It was likely that they had sold it directly to the commission shop.
Li Ang did not know much about antiques, but he could tell that the vase was most likely an old object. However, it was really cheap!
Li Ang did not know the exact amount, but the middle-aged woman did not receive much money. It was definitely not more than 20 yuan.
While Li Ang was looking around, an old master walked to the nearest counter.
"Little comrade, what do you want to buy?"
