Throughout July, Ning Weimin also experienced some small changes in other aspects of his personal career.
Of course, he and Zhang Shihui's income mainly relies on the business of transferring supplies from the Friendship Store.
However, since training takes up a lot of time, it is inevitable that the transaction volume and profits will decrease.
Judging from the data compiled by Ning Weimin at the end of the month, the two of them earned roughly 30% less than last month.
But fortunately, Zhang Shihui is not a carefree or calculating person. He is a master who lives his life as he pleases.
So he didn't show any dissatisfaction at all because he made less money.
It's even possible that he didn't even notice this problem.
This kid just felt tired from training and regretted being "trapped" by Ning Weimin.
In addition, I hang out with a lot of girls every day.
He was also a little worried that Liu Weijing would be paranoid if he found out about it, fearing that sooner or later he would be in trouble because of this.
Fortunately, it was not all nothing for him. In the second half of the month, he listened to Ning Weimin's words and chased after Taldo every day.
Not only did Zhang Shihui's English speaking skills greatly improve, she also learned two additional sentences in French, and she also opened a personal foreign exchange business.
Relying solely on his eloquence, he successfully exchanged five hundred "new money" from Taldo.
This certainly played a great role in promoting his interest in learning foreign languages, and it was indeed enough to make him look good for a while.
Next, let’s talk about stamps.
When he has free time, Ning Weimin still visits the entrance of the Philatelic Corporation every now and then.
Now that he was familiar with the boss, he found a few stamp dealers who thought their character and ability were generally acceptable to be his "eyes".
He negotiated a certain profit ratio with these people in advance, hoping that once the stamp dealers saw the type of stamp he wanted, they would help him buy it first.
Or wait for him to come and set up a bridge for him.
This made it a lot easier for him to collect rare tickets from before the "movement" and before liberation.
Although it is impossible to pick up the slack and you have to follow the trend of the market, the advantage is that you can cast a wider net and complete the transaction more quickly.
No matter from the current situation of underdeveloped information, inconvenient communication, and lack of time.
Or looking at the future, starting from the appreciation space of these ticket types, it is the most cost-effective choice for him.
In the same way, the levels are different precisely because of different starting points.
Ning Weimin did not apply for the "new postal reservation certificate" that became popular these days.
You should know that during this period, due to the rise of philately fever, more and more people bought stamps, and stamps became more and more popular.
If you want to buy the urgently needed new stamps issued by the stamp company as soon as possible, you must purchase them with a voucher.
This certificate is just a small book with the words "New Post Reservation Certificate" printed on it.
Only members of the Philatelic Association are eligible to apply.
The purchase limit per person is usually one set of stamps and one souvenir sheet.
Needless to say, although it is cost-effective to buy stamps in this way, the problem is that the quantity is too small.
So what if I apply for three or four documents?
It was still the work of Sangualiang Zaoer, so of course it couldn't satisfy Ning Weimin's appetite.
If necessary, instead of taking up time and queuing up to buy a few sets, he might as well increase the price and receive the goods in bulk from those stamp dealers who are hated by ordinary stamp collectors.
So in addition, Ning Weimin's other operations in the postal market were to control the price of monkey tickets by selling low and selling high.
To put it bluntly, this safety arbitrage job is like stir-frying pork belly with a small fire.
You can neither let the fire go out nor let it get bigger. You have to wait for the oil and water to be baked out bit by bit by the heat at the bottom of the pot.
And his purpose, of course, is not to get a little bit of oil from it.
The key is that in order to successfully speculate on a big dish, the market must fully exchange chips in a price range, conduct repeated transactions, and solidify the price foundation of monkey tickets.
Wait until everyone has formed the inherent concept that monkey stocks can only rise quickly, rise slowly, or even stagflation, but will never turn down.
Only by raising the price of monkey tickets can he gain the public's psychological approval.
As for making a living in cultural relics, you can still visit the ghost market.
But because he had to go to the Drum Tower for training every day and didn't have time to make the trip, Ning Weimin had to cancel the content of holding treasures in front of the cultural relics store.
But he also had unexpected gains.
That is in the small alley between the Drum Tower and the Bell Tower, which has naturally formed an extremely hidden flea market.
The only people who come here to set up street stalls are antique vendors.
There are also residents from nearby Shichahai and Jingshan who come to sell old items that are not used at home. The goods are almost all from Beicheng.
Not only will no one check it, but it can be placed safely from morning until night.
Moreover, when you look up, you will see the Bell Tower, and when you turn your face, you will see the Drum Tower. The sound of bells in the morning and evening drums creates a very cultural atmosphere.
When Ning Weimin first discovered this place, it was less than fifteen minutes before the training started.
He visited a few stalls and spent almost forty yuan on a jade snuff bottle, a Hetian jade ring and an enamel revolving bottle.
You can tell whether this flea market is valuable or not.
So unlike the rest of the model team, he is never late or late.
I carry a big bag every day and wish I could come at three o'clock in the afternoon.
It's said that it's like hunting rabbits, and almost never comes back empty-handed.
Finally, let's talk about Huo Xin, that can be said to be Ning Weimin's only worry.
Although he had a conflict with the girl the moment he met her, it was too bad to just let it out so loudly and ignore her from then on.
Because in the final analysis, whether intentional or not, he was the one who hit someone, and he was the one who caused the accident.
So after a week or two, I would buy something and visit my house to have a look.
Ning Wei elected mostly on Sunday mornings, not only to avoid suspicion, but also because he was not free every night.
When it comes to buying things, he doesn't hesitate to spend money and only buys the best ones.
Lychees, longans, bananas, pineapples, and milk grapes are all rare southern fruits these days, and they come in different varieties.
In addition, you also need to get some milk powder, pork ribs, stick bones and lotus root, which can increase calcium.
At the same time, I didn't forget to buy some tea, cigarettes, alcohol, etc. for Huo Xin's aunt and uncle.
After all, it was a courtesy, and he didn't want anyone to single him out.
I don’t know if it’s because I didn’t spend any money, or if it’s the effect of the one thousand yuan.
Huo Xin and her aunt and uncle seemed to have begun to improve their attitude towards him, and their tone of voice seemed to be much more polite.
When I entered the house, I invited him to sit down, made him tea, and turned on the electric fan to fan him.
But the more they behave like this, the more awkward Ning Weimin feels, because this kind of politeness is just superficial.
All the procedures were fake, making him miserable every second he sat here.
Director Huang always looked at him with suspicion, and there was always a slight coldness in his smile.
Her husband may have hidden it better because of his deep city, and his outward warmth and politeness wrapped up his hostility.
But unintentionally, the tone of his words was condescending and contemptuous.
But he couldn't leave quickly even if he wanted to. Maybe he was bored at home every day, but Huo Xin was quite interested in talking to him when he saw him.
I always ask him about things outside, what songs, books, and movies are popular now, and what everyone is talking about.
Of course, Ning Weimin had to use his energy to deal with it.
But he didn't expect that it would become more and more troublesome.
Because of the asymmetry in the amount of information, in this era of lack of foreign culture and spiritual culture.
Ning Weimin, a time traveler, has a kaleidoscope of entertainment and a grand garden of fashion.
Traditional, modern, foreign, domestic, sad, romantic, scary, humorous...it's all there.
In addition, he can also compile it himself, and can often use the perspective of the future to judge the questions that people of this era are confused about.
That is much better than the official language and main theme in radio, television and cinema.
Huo Xin just wanted to relieve her boredom, and she was just bored.
Even if Ning Weimin said it casually, it wouldn't be too much for her to hear what she was interested in.
Naturally, she was so fascinated by the conversation that she didn't want to end the conversation at all.
How many times have we talked?
On Sunday, if Ning Weimin hadn't come, Huo Xin would have felt like a hit TV series suddenly had a power outage.
It seems like something is missing. That's it.
Once Ning Weimin came, of course he would be reluctant to let him go.
Huo Xin, who had always been disgusted with the smell of cigarettes, not only asked her aunt to make tea for Ning Weimin, but also took the initiative to get Ning Weimin cigarettes.
You have to listen to him talk for two hours to be satisfied.
At this time, let alone Huo Xin, he no longer regarded Ning Weimin as a gangster.
I even began to think that it was actually a copper kettle that was green on the inside - rusty on the inside and rusty on the outside.
Huo Xin's uncle and aunt were naturally wary of their niece's abnormal situation.
Director Huang talked to Huo Xin alone and reminded her tactfully not to be rash when it comes to love.
You must consider the other person's family background, diploma and future to be worthy of yourself.
Huo Xin naturally understood what it meant, and blushed on the spot and denied it repeatedly.
But to be honest, the girl's thoughts are really weird, and often even she doesn't understand what she really thinks.
Her feelings for Ning Weimin were like a magician performing tricks, everything changed when she shouted "change".
But things in the world are still in jeopardy. There is a saying that the falling flowers are ruthless and the flowing water is ruthless.
Unlike Huo Xin's transformation, Ning Weimin was always afraid of the scalding heat in Huo Xin's big, fluttering eyes.
It's really just perfunctory, I hope this girl can take care of her feet quickly, and the two of them can go their separate ways from now on.
For example, Huo Xin was moved by the stories he told and couldn't help but express her heartfelt emotions to him.
"You should really go to college. What a pity. You have the potential to engage in literature or study philosophy and sociology. Without a diploma, your future will be very limited..."
Ning Weimin thought to himself, it's a good thing I didn't go to college. Otherwise, wouldn't I have to spend time with you talking nonsense?
Besides, I am a layman, why should I study?
What I want is wealth that can rival the country, money measured in billions!
