Chapter 118 The Lion Opens Its Mouth

Since Li Chao got the six major versions of monkey stamps, his interest in stamp collection has become increasingly strong. He likes to run to the stamp market with Wanru, Feifei or Dad for no reason. He has delayed practicing martial arts and has been beaten several times by his master Yan Ruosong. He has no regrets and is still enjoying it.

It was the New Year again, and Li Chao received a lot of red envelopes. Just after the New Year, the stamp market opened in the New Year, and Li Chao followed Wanru and Zhao Xian to buy stamps happily.

This year, because of the large amount of funds pouring into the postage market, and some speculative institutions with ulterior motives, the price of stamps rushed up like a rocket, which rose quite outrageously. Many stamps rolled upwards, turning upwards exponentially. The entire version of monkey stamps was no trace in the market, neither ticket nor priceless.

Wanru and the others accompanied Li Chao to almost all the entire postage market. Finally, they found a large version of monkey tickets in a very remote but large store. The shop owner called for 40,000 yuan, and in an era when the per capita monthly income was only a few hundred yuan, it was simply an astronomical figure. Zhao Xian and Wanru were shocked when they heard it.

Li Chao had a lot of money in his pocket, full of hope, and took it for granted that he could easily get a large version of the monkey ticket. But when he heard the boss's offer, he seemed to be poured into a bucket of ice water and stayed there. But he was unwilling to give up, so he begged the boss pitifully, "Uncle, I only have 22,000 yuan on me, not much, if you don't believe me, you can search. Forget it, you can earn less, and sell me my money. I am a little baby, and I don't have much money."

Seeing that the fat man was a little older, the boss dared to boast that he had more than 20,000 yuan on him. He thought that this fat boy was so idle that he had nothing to do to ask him to mess with him. When he came here to make trouble, he drove him away and asked him to go somewhere else to play.

Li Chao is so thick-skinned. He was like a cow mosquito. He was knocked away and turned back. He kept pestering the boss. He couldn't knock him away. He drove him back again. After repeated times, the boss lost his temper by him and said helplessly: "You fat kid, too clingy, like a dog skin plaster, you can't even shake it off even if you stick to it. Forget it, because you are a baby, you will lose five thousand, and you will count on 35,000 yuan. If you have money, you will buy it. If you don't have money, you won't be entangled. You're making trouble!"

Wanru kept pulling Lichao and was about to leave, saying that it was too expensive and he would lose money if he bought it! The boss was dissatisfied with it and shouted: "Loss! Guokui, you guys come to me in a few days and will come to see you again. If you can't buy it for 45,000, I'll pour my name and write it!"

Li Chao broke free from his sister's hand and ran to the boss and said, "Boss, 35,000 is 35,000 yuan. Then we two agreed that I will bring you the money tomorrow morning. You are an adult, so you can't regret what you said!"

The boss was just teasing them and playing with them. He thought to himself, a naughty child, not to mention 35,000 yuan, even 35,000 yuan, he would not be able to take it out! So he agreed: "Don't change, don't change, which one wants to change is a turtle bastard! Go quickly and go quickly, go quickly!" Li Chao was not relieved, and seriously said that he wanted to hook him. In order to send this clingy fat baby away as soon as possible, the boss really hooked him!

After leaving the gate of the mail market, Wanru said she wanted to invite Li Chao and Zhao Xian to eat fermented glutinous rice, and Wuzi oil cake. Li Chao actually refused!

He was anxious to go home and borrow money from Yu Niang to buy stamps. When he went back late, his father and Yu Niang were on a business trip tonight, so he couldn't borrow money.

Wanru was shocked when she heard this and blinked her eyes and said, "You really want to buy it? I thought you were having fun. Chaochao, don't buy it. It's too expensive and it sounds scary. We can buy other tickets. Why do you have to buy monkey tickets? Don't you have many?" Zhao Xian also advised him that the current price is not something you can afford, but you should listen to your sister and buy other tickets. Li Chao could not hear it, saying that he wanted to buy it, and he had to buy it. He said that because there are few monkey tickets in the world, it grew fast, and the monkey tickets his father bought for him in the past have made money anyway, and he wouldn't be afraid even if he lost it this time!

Seeing that he was so stubborn, Wanru couldn't help but persuade him, and had no choice but to send him home.

When Yu Niang heard that her son wanted to borrow 13,000 yuan from her, she was also surprised. When she realized that her son was borrowing money to buy stamps, she relaxed and asked her husband Shangguan Zhongxuan to discuss it.

After hearing the reason why his son borrowed money, Zhongxuan pondered for a while before saying to him: "Maomao, such a sum of money is not a small amount for you. Dad wants to give you some advice, do you want to listen?"

Kasaki nodded and said, "I'm willing."

Shangguan Zhongxuan continued: "Maomao, according to my father, this wave of market in the postal market has come too fiercely and makes people confused. Because there is no major change in the fundamentals of the postal market, supply and demand are basically balanced, that is, there is no major change in the people who buy stamps and sell stamps compared with the past, and the issuance of stamps is now relatively largely improved compared with the past. Therefore, Dad analyzed that the price of stamps has risen sharply this time, as long as it is caused by human factors, some institutions are even engaging in speculation.

Stamps are hyped up, maliciously raising market prices, and profit from it. This is no different from the past, such as Clivia, orchid, Shoushan Stone, etc., and after the madness, it is a mess. So, Dad advises you not to join in the fun at this time. If I were you, stand aside and observe calmly and wait patiently. When the stamps fall and basically match its intrinsic value, it is a good time to take action. So, don’t do anything now and wait and see what changes are. Is it good, mao?”

Li Chao is now all his mind on the full version of the monkey tickets. He can't even listen to the words of his father whom he admires the most on weekdays. He retorted loudly: "That boss has reduced me a lot of money. He also said that it will increase to 45,000 in ten days at most. And he only has full version of the monkey tickets in the entire market, and there is no other shops! I'm going to buy it, I...I can't afford to pay Yu Niang's money. When I get the red envelope for the New Year next year, I will pay back the money immediately.

Shangguan Zhongxuan smiled after hearing his son's words and said, "That's because everyone thought there was still a lot of increase, so they kept their votes in their hands and held the votes for the increase. It's not that there are no votes in the market, do you know, silly son."

But Li Chao did not agree with his father's opinion, and insisted on buying tickets, and pestered his father to borrow money.

Seeing that his son was so persistent, Shangguan Zhongxuan asked again: "Maomao, you really have to buy stamps. Have you really thought about it seriously?"

Li Chao nodded firmly. Zhongxuan thought for a while and said to his son: "Okay, Maomao, if you have thought about it seriously and think that now is a good time and must buy it, then dad will not say anything. Let me discuss with my mother, okay?"

When Li Chao heard that there was a door, he was so happy that he nodded at his father.
