“But there are still secret transactions. The restrictions are much less strict than in the black markets in the past. No one really bothers with it now. But there are plenty of people with a little money who want to go overseas or want a little money for their retirement or want to improve their lives! Get some gold ready, and we’ll go and take a look.”
At this time, the markets had opened, but a lot of people had not yet changed their way of thinking. They were still living in the past.
Some old people were too frightened. Even though freedom had arrived many years ago, they were still very cautious, afraid that those terrible days would come again.
So, at the time, many people still maintained a low profile.
Some people wanted to secretly barter for some gold to leave the country.
Mo Beihan had already asked around. When he sent his men out on business, he had asked them to take note of the markets here, so he knew where they were.
When he brought Gu Qingyao there, they did indeed see some old people.
They could tell from the way they carried themselves that these were no ordinary citizens.
At the time, transactions were still carried out very carefully, although people were clearly not as cautious as they were before. It was comparatively easier to make deals now. Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan went around the market and obtained many good things.
They entered an empty alley, and Gu Qingyao put the calligraphy that she had just obtained in her interspace. She laughed. “Wow, wow, wow! Although these are very valuable, things are different now. It’s almost all antiques like calligraphy, painting, porcelain, sole existing copies of books and copybooks. There aren’t many jewels.”
Mo Beihan smiled. “Times are different now! Although antiques are not controlled now, if many people catch sight of them, it will incite gossip. Besides, the prices haven’t risen by much. They might as well exchange them for money now! Did you notice that they almost always want gold?”
It was true. When they were making deals, few wanted cash. Most wanted gold.
Gold was a hard currency. It was the easiest to spend and could be conveniently used overseas too.
“Jewels are easy to store. They can tell that times are changing, and they will certainly keep some. They won’t bring them out unless they have some special need.”
Now, jewels were easily sold. Many people would buy some and wear them out of vanity. It was not like the past when they were not allowed to wear jewelry, so it was comparatively easier to deal in jewels, and as a result, there were fewer of them on the market.
Everyone was keeping them!
Gu Qingyao smiled, “It’s all right. Anyway, I’m not in a hurry. Let them appreciate. I have enough jewels. Now I prefer antiques, calligraphy and painting.”
The value of these objects would increase steeply in the future. When the things she stored in her interspace appreciated, it would absolutely be comparable to the assets of a multinational consortium. She would definitely be a billionaire!
Mo Beihan patted her small, money-mad head. “All right, in that case, let’s go and barter for some more. There are plenty here!”
“Second Cousin and the rest will certainly want to spend a few days here. I’ll bring you to the antiques market every day.”
Gu Qingyao narrowed her eyes and let him pat her head.
They stayed there for three days. Gu Qingyao obtained many nice things and was very pleased. The others were having too much fun and showed no intention of leaving.. Mo Beihan brought Gu Qingyao to many places, and they obtained as much as they could.
