Traveling through 70's wine

Chapter 70 Procurement

Wen Qing went to HSBC and bought 20 kilograms of gold, spending 200 million Hong Kong dollars. She felt that spending money like this was too slow, so she decided to make a large purchase and buy some useful things.

The first stop is to the famous Antique Street in Hong Kong. This street runs north-south and is two kilometers long. There are shops on both sides, some selling Chinese antiques, some selling antiques from other countries, as well as jade and precious medicinal materials.

She was strolling casually on the street and saw a shop called Chongyi Pavilion on the side of the street. There were some porcelains displayed in the window, so she pushed the door and went in.

This is a small shop of only fifty or sixty square meters, with many miscellaneous items on display.

There are wooden shelves inside and outside the counter. The shelves inside the counter are filled with porcelain of all sizes, including vases, bowls, plates, pen holders, etc. On the shelves outside are porcelain screens, Buddha statues, and vases. It seems that it mainly sells porcelain.

An old man was packing things in the store. He just glanced at Wen Qing and continued to do his own thing. He didn't pay much attention to Wen Qing's coming in.

Wen Qing stood in the middle of the store, quietly looking at a statue of Guanyin on a shelf in the store. The old man saw that she had been looking at it for a long time, so he asked, "What do you want to buy, sir?"

Wen Qing pointed to a white porcelain Guanyin statue on the shelf and said, "Please show me that Guanyin statue."

After staying in Hong Kong for a few days, Wen Qing's Cantonese has improved again and she has no problem communicating with others.

The old man carefully took the Guanyin statue off the display stand and placed it on the counter. "Please look."

Wen Qing took out a white handkerchief and placed it on her hand. She picked up the Guanyin statue and first looked at the inscription on the bottom of the porcelain statue. She then repeatedly observed the details of the Guanyin statue. Then she put it back on the counter and said to the old man, "Thank you. Thank you for your trouble."

Then he pointed to a porcelain plate on the counter and said, "Please let me see this porcelain plate."

The old man opened the counter door, took out the porcelain plate and placed it on the counter, "Please look."

This is a blue and white porcelain plate with a diameter of about 20 cm. The glaze is green with a hint of blue, the bottom is closed, the body is fine white, and the pattern on the plate is simple, with only simple depictions of water plants. Wen Qing nodded secretly. The glaze of this porcelain plate is bright and the water plants are vivid, as if swaying in the water, which is very beautiful.

She put the porcelain plate aside and pointed to an underglaze red porcelain flowerpot on the counter and asked the old man to take it out for her to see.

This is a flowerpot that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, with a mouth of about 24 cm, a bottom of about 10 cm, and a height of 16 cm. The glaze of the porcelain pot is green with red. Turning over the bottom of the pot, you can see that there is glaze on the bottom and the body is gray. Wen Qing looked at the shop while chatting with the old man. The old man said that this shop was opened by his grandfather and it has been 7 years old. The utensils in the shop were acquired by three generations of their family.

Wen Qing finally bought the blue and white porcelain plate and the underglaze red flowerpot, spending a total of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars.

She continued to stroll along the antique street and went to a shop selling Western goods, where she bought two Patek Philippe watches. One was a rose gold perpetual calendar watch, said to have been produced in the 30s; the other was a world time watch with a dial made of pure gold and inlaid with a -point diamond. Although it was second-hand, it was in good condition and could tell time normally. She spent a total of Hong Kong dollars.

Wen Qing had no great interest in these antiques and luxury goods, she just collected some when she came across them.

We walked all the way to the port. The port city is a famous re-export trade center. There are many shops near the port, but the business of these shops is mainly export.

She bought 2000 bicycles exported from China, 2000 portable recorders from the Land of Sakura, 2000 pocket radios, and 5 locally produced electronic watches in the name of wholesale, spending HK$100 million on these things.

Wen Qing required the other party to deliver the goods to the warehouse she rented at the port within two days.

After signing several contracts in one go, she carefully considered what to do next. She went back to the hotel to think about it for a night and found that her winery was still missing some things.

She went to look near the port again and finally found the brewing equipment in a store selling Sakura Country products. She immediately bought a capping machine, a liquid filling machine, 100 oak barrels, and a set of stainless steel distiller, spending a total of 5 Hong Kong dollars. All the items were ready-made, so she asked the merchant to deliver the items to the warehouse.

The home appliances produced in Sakura Country are of good quality and are hard to buy in China. Wen Qing simply bought three refrigerators, three washing machines, two color TVs, and two microwave ovens in this store, spending less than 3 Hong Kong dollars. She also had them delivered to the warehouse at the port. After all the items were delivered, she put them into the space.

She went to HSBC and saw that there was still 2320 million remaining in her account. She didn't have anything to buy at the moment and she didn't want to keep the money in the account. What could she do with the money?

Wen Qing has no investment experience. All she can think of is buying a house or buying stocks.

She found the bank's lobby manager and mentioned her investment plan. The lobby manager took her to the account manager's office on the second floor and introduced her to him: "Sir, this is our bank's financial manager, Mr. Zhou Zhe."

The lobby manager politely introduced Zhou Zhe to Wen Qing, then turned and left.

Zhou Zhe is a man in his 30s, about 175 cm tall, wearing a navy blue suit.

He walked over, shook hands with Wen Qing, and took her to a meeting room. After learning about Wen Qing's investment ideas, he asked her to take out her ID and bank account, fill out the information, and assisted her in opening a securities account.

When Zhou Zhe saw that her account balance was more than 2000 million yuan, he immediately became enthusiastic and asked, "Mr. Li, what kind of investment do you want to make?"

In the banks in Hong Kong, you can buy local stocks, or stocks of the United States, the United States or the United States.

Since the 60s, the port city's manufacturing industry has developed rapidly, especially light industrial products and shipbuilding, which have made great contributions to local development. The stocks of these companies have risen sharply.

Wen Qing learned about the stock prices of several large local companies and asked her securities broker, through Zhou Zhe, to use all the funds in her account to buy shares of Changshui Industry and Harvest Bank. The securities broker thought she had some inside information and while making the transaction, he secretly memorized the information.

After buying the stocks, Wen Qing found that there was only 10 Hong Kong dollars left in her account. She wrote down the phone numbers of her securities broker and financial manager Zhou Zhe, and agreed that she would call them later to inform them of the follow-up operations before leaving the bank.

The business in Hongcheng had been settled. Wen Qing checked out of the Mandarin Hotel and drove his jeep back to the northern coastal highway.

Late at night, she put the car into the space and went into the sea under the cover of darkness. Even though it was winter in the south, the sea water was still freezing cold, although it did not freeze like in the north. She circulated her internal energy, letting the heat circulate in her body, and swam quickly to the other side.

As Wen Qing's skills grew, her senses became sharper. She stayed away from the ships on the sea all the way, and when she swam to the other side, she did not go ashore immediately.

First, he quietly lurked in the water, and heard no other sounds except the sound of wind, water, and waves at night. Then he stepped onto the reef to the shore, quickly climbed over the cliff by the sea, and hid in the woods.

Wen Qing hid in the space, changed her clothes, and made up into an old man. She left the space and walked onto a small path.

Wen Qing did not return to Dongyue City to take the train. Instead, he walked more than 50 kilometers to the north in one breath. He stopped when he reached a forest near a small town and entered the space to rest.

This mountain belongs to the mountainous area in the central part of Vietnam Province. It is high in the mountains, deep in the waters, and seldom visited by people, but the air is very good.

In the morning, Wen Qing came out of the space and sat on the edge of the cliff to practice. She felt the vitality all around her and the effect of her practice was very good. She was not in a hurry and slowly climbed over the mountains and practiced as she walked.

In the mountains and forests, she also collected a lot of Chinese herbal medicines such as Polygonatum sibiricum, Poria cocos, Amomum villosum, and Morinda officinalis.

After crossing the mountains and coming to the road, she still practiced during the day and took out the jeep to travel at night. She drove 800 kilometers north to Xijiang. After satisfying her driving craving, she climbed onto a freight train heading north at a small station behind Yingcheng.
