1. How to deal with the batch of yellow croaker shipped to foreign countries by Nashan and Nahai?

The batch of yellow croakers shipped abroad by the mountains and seas was eventually destroyed. In the TV series "The Mountain and the Sea", in order to seize the market, the batch of yellow croakers shipped abroad were painted with yellow paint. They were not real yellow croakers, but counterfeit and inferior products, and were eventually destroyed.

2. How much is the “yellow croaker” worth during the Republic of China period?

During the Republic of China period, yellow croakers were divided into large yellow croakers and small yellow croakers. The large ones were as thick as large gold bars, and the small ones were as small gold bars. The large yellow croaker weighed ten taels, which is equivalent to 312.5 grams today. At 350 yuan per gram, a large yellow croaker during the Republic of China period was worth 1.09375 million yuan today; the small yellow croaker weighed one tael, which is 31.25 grams, which is equivalent to 109,375 yuan.

The origin of the saying of "yellow croaker" gold bars in the Republic of China is said to be that Dai Li, the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, was very fond of yellow croaker. Note that this refers to real yellow croaker. Dai Li loved to eat fish, especially the delicious yellow croaker from Zhejiang. Dai Li had a classmate who saw that Dai Li was doing well and was deeply loved by Chiang Kai-shek, so he decided to get to know Chiang Kai-shek through Dai Li so that he could get a job. He heard that Dai Li liked yellow croaker, so he specially gave Dai Li 6 gold bars that he had saved for many years as a gift.

When Dai Li opened it, he was instantly furious, "Nowadays, the people are starving. Instead of giving me this gold bar, you might as well exchange it for food to give to the people!" It turned out that this person had misunderstood. He then went to buy some fried yellow croakers and gave them to Dai Li. Only then did Dai Li calm down. Soon, this classmate was appointed to govern.

Yellow croaker gold bars in the early years of the Republic of China, the national government implemented a legal currency policy and controlled gold transactions. That is to say, people who had gold and silver had to go to the bank to exchange them for legal currency. Gold was prohibited from circulating in the market, but gold bars were valuable, and everyone would privately keep a few, just like people deposit money now, in case of emergency.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the legal currency depreciated, and the Nationalist government decided to open the foreign exchange market, allowing gold trading and withdrawing legal currency. The government ordered the Central Mint to produce gold bars, which were then controlled by banks and transported to various regions. People had to go to banks and money houses to exchange gold bars for silver dollars, because the gold bars produced were all large gold bars (large yellow croakers), and could only be circulated in the market if they were exchanged for small amounts.

In 1946, the Central Mint on the Bund in Shanghai also produced gold bars. They used a semi-automatic gold bar pressing machine to make small gold bars of various weights, so the gold bars produced were divided into several types, including five cents, one tael, two taels, three taels, five taels, and ten taels. The ten-tael gold bars were collectively called big yellow croakers, and the one-tael gold bars were collectively called small yellow croakers.

At that time, there were not many "big yellow croakers" circulating in the market. Each of these "big yellow croaker" gold bars was printed with "Sun Yat-sen", "cloth emblem" or "Central Mint" and the weight, color and quantity number of the gold bar were written on the other side. In fact, after the founding of New China, all these big yellow croakers and small yellow croakers were recycled and melted by the government, and many workshops that made jewelry with gold appeared in the private sector, so the big and small yellow croaker gold bars left over from the Republic of China period were already very rare.

2017 Spring Sirloin Auction

The "Central Mint Sun Yat-sen Portrait Five-Tael Factory Bar" appeared at this auction. This factory bar is 70.5mm long, 30.2mm wide, and 3.8mm thick. It is a 5-tael gold bar and its value can no longer be calculated according to the gold price.

3. What about the "Ningde Yuyue Food Company" to which the wild yellow croakers on Zangyu Island belong?

Can provide some explanation for this problem

Of course, the company that the Zangyu Island wild yellow croaker is sued for is "Ningde Yuyue Food Co., Ltd."! You may not know it, but those of us who have heard of or bought its products know it to some extent. This company has the scarce resources of the high-quality seedling breeding base in the core main production area of ​​Ningde yellow croaker, and focuses on deep-sea ecological breeding and high-end brand sales of rubber fiber as its key development strategy. With the brand concept of "returning to the original, returning to the wild", it is committed to creating the first brand of high-end yellow croaker varieties.

4. How much is the gold bar commonly known as "yellow fish" during the Republic of China period worth now?

In ancient times, people usually used copper coins and broken silver to buy things. In the Ming Dynasty, the currency in circulation on the market became silver dollars. Just like the ancient gold ingots, there was another kind of currency in the Republic of China, that is, yellow croaker gold bars. If yellow croaker were put into the present, it would be worth at least six figures according to the gram.

Yellow croaker was the nickname of the gold bar at that time, because it was round and golden, it was jokingly called yellow croaker. At first, there was only one specification of yellow croaker, which was ten taels per bar, and it was something that only rich people would buy. However, with the rise of gold fever, many not-so-rich families also wanted to buy one as a hard goods collection, so small yellow croakers were later issued. Yellow croakers are all made uniformly by the government, with a purity of nearly 99% and extremely high quality. According to the calculation of half a catty and eight taels in the past, converted into the current unit, a large yellow croaker weighs a full 312.5g. Calculated at a gold price of 430 yuan per gram, a large yellow croaker is nearly 130,000 yuan, and a small yellow croaker is almost more than 10,000 yuan.

This is just a calculation based on grams. You should know that the yellow croaker in the Republic of China has a history of several decades and cannot be measured by the value of ordinary gold. For many collectors, yellow croaker is more like a collection that witnesses history. According to data, in 2012, a group of yellow croakers was auctioned, with a specification of five yellow croakers weighing five taels, and the total transaction price was 745,000 yuan. In this way, each tael of yellow croaker was worth about 30,000 yuan at the time, which means that a large yellow croaker weighing ten taels was basically nearly 300,000 yuan, and a small one would cost 30,000 yuan. Coupled with the inflation in recent years, the price is far higher than that of normal gold.

Therefore, due to its unique historical value, the yellow croaker gold bar can no longer be simply priced as gold. But it is certain that its value is at least three times higher than normal gold or more. Unfortunately, most people bought yellow croakers at that time to store them as hard currency and did not use them for daily expenses. Otherwise, according to the prices of the time, using a few small yellow croakers to buy a courtyard house would be worth tens of millions of yuan now.

The gold bars of "yellow croaker" are divided into one liang, five liang and ten liang. The one liang is called small yellow croaker, which is worth about 17,000 yuan now. The ten liang is called big yellow croaker, which is worth 170,000 yuan.

At that time, paper currency inflation was very serious, and only gold was the most stable. Two "yellow fish" gold bars were worth 134,400 in 2009, and I'm afraid they are worth more in 2019.

A large yellow croaker weighs 10 liang, and one jin is 16 liang. One jin is 500 grams, so 10 liang is 312.5 grams. If calculated at 270 yuan per gram, a large yellow croaker is worth 84,000 yuan.
