The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 286 Investing
The next day, Wang Gang got up early to exercise, and saw Cai Xiaoguang as soon as he left the house.

Cai Xiaoguang seemed to be standing outside the door for a long time, when he saw Wang Gang coming out, he subconsciously hid for a while.

"Brother Xiaoguang, why are you here?" Wang Gang found Cai Xiaoguang and asked in confusion.

Cai Xiaoguang came out in embarrassment and greeted Wang Gang.

Wang Gang thought that Cai Xiaoguang was looking for Zhou Rong, so he said, "My sister is not here, she will arrive the day after tomorrow."

Cai Xiaoguang became even more embarrassed, rubbing his hands together and said, "I'm not here to find Zhou Rong, I'm here to find you."

Wang Gang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered something.

"Bingkun, I heard that you have been admitted to Peking University, congratulations!" Cai Xiaoguang said politely.

Wang Gang smiled and said, "Brother Xiaoguang, how did you do in the exam?"

Cai Xiaoguang forced a smile and said, "It's okay, I'm not as good as you, I was admitted to the Capital Broadcasting Institute."

"Congratulations!" Wang Gang said with a smile.

"Oh!" Cai Xiaoguang sighed suddenly, and said, "I passed the exam, but I might not pass."

When Wang Gang heard this, he thought it was true.

In the original book, Cao Xiaoguang was admitted to university, but the tractor factory where he worked would not let him go. Later, he asked Zhou Bingyi to ask his father-in-law Hao Gaoguan for help.

Although Hao Gaoguan did help Cai Xiaoguang in the end, it also caused Hao Gaoguan to have a prejudice against Zhou Bingyi.

"Your factory manager is so courageous that he blatantly defies the decision of the above. Does he not want to do it?" Wang Gang said after listening to Cai Xiaoguang's narration.

"There are too many obscene things in the unit, and the factory manager either explicitly refuses to let me go, or is stuck with my file." Cai Xiaoguang sighed.

Cai Xiaoguang's father passed away half a year ago, and Wang Gang went to the funeral. Cai Xiaoguang's life in the tractor factory became more and more difficult.

"Bingkun, can you tell your elder brother for me that his father-in-law has resumed work, and he can help me with a word." Cai Xiaoguang begged.

Wang Gang was in a dilemma. He just scolded Zhou Bingyi away yesterday, so how could he say this now.

But it’s okay not to help Cai Xiaoguang. Cai Xiaoguang has helped him a lot in the past few years, and the house he lives in is still obtained through the relationship of Cai Xiaoguang’s father.

"Okay, you can leave this to me." Wang Gang agreed directly.

Cai Xiaoguang was very happy, and took Wang Gang's hand and thanked him repeatedly.

After Wang Gang sent Cai Xiaoguang away, he stopped exercising and rode directly to the optical film.

He didn't go back to Zhou's house, but to Tu Zhiqiang's house.

Tu Zhiqiang and Shui Ziliu were released last year. They found Wang Gang immediately and expressed their gratitude.

The three have kept in touch.

When he came to Tu Zhiqiang's house, Wang Gang stopped his bicycle and knocked on the door.

The one that opens the door is the water flowing by itself.

"Bingkun, you are here! Come in." Shui Ziliu invited Wang Gang into the house like the owner of the house.

Tu Zhiqiang's house was left to him by his father. After Tu Zhiqiang was released from prison, if he hadn't had this room, he would have lived on the street.

"Is Brother Qiangzi here?" Wang Gang asked Shui Ziliu.

"He's gone to the toilet, he'll be back later." The water poured Wang Gang a glass of water.

"How are you doing? Have you found a job?" Wang Gang asked.

Shui Ziliu said sadly: "Not yet, Qiang Zi and I have a criminal record, and it is difficult to find a job. If you didn't lend us money, we would have problems eating."

Wang Gang said, "Are you still selling tickets on the black market?"

Shui Ziliu sighed: "Although ticket scalping is much safer now, it is getting more and more difficult to do. Qiangzi and I are doing some part-time jobs while scalping tickets."

Wang Gang pondered for a moment and said, "Do you want to do business?"

Shui Ziliu was surprised and said, "Is it speculative when doing business?"

Wang Gang smiled and said: "You should have noticed it! Now speculation is getting looser and looser, and sooner or later it will be loosened.

In your situation, it is difficult to find a job seriously, and you can only do business by yourself. "

Shui Ziliu sighed: "I know this too, but doing business requires capital, and Qiangzi and I have no capital."

"I can lend you the capital." Wang Gang drank his saliva and said.

Shui Ziliu was overjoyed, and said: "Bingkun, thank you, if it weren't for you, Qiangzi would have died a long time ago, I didn't expect you to still think about us now."

Wang Gang didn't beat around the bush, and said, "I can give you the capital, and you don't have to pay it back, but I want to take [-]% of the shares."

"It should be, it should be." Shui Ziliu said: "Don't say [-]%, [-]% should be."

Wang Gang shook his head and said, "You guys have to take risks, and you should take [-]% of the shares. I only pay the money and don't participate in the operation."

Shui Ziliu knew in his heart that even though Wang Gang said that, he was actually taking care of them.

"Bingkun, what kind of business do you think we should do?"

Wang Gang said: "I've already thought about it, you can sell melon seeds."

Shui Ziliu is very business-minded, and Wang Gang feels that even if he can't copy the myth of the fool's melon seeds, it should not be difficult to make the first pot of gold.

It's the beginning of July and August. Although the opening has not come, there are many small businesses and hawkers on the street, and there are few people in charge.

As urban employment becomes more and more difficult, many people can only find their own way out. They have thought about becoming hawkers, but he and Tu Zhiqiang really have no capital.

Wang Gang lent Shuiziliu 1000 yuan, which was enough as start-up capital.

Not only did he let himself go, but Tu Zhiqiang took the money and ran away. 1000 yuan is a lot of money for others, but for Wang Gang, it doesn't matter if it's a drop in the bucket.

"You can help me a little bit in the next two days." Wang Gang said his second purpose for coming today.

"Bingkun, just tell me if you have something to say." Shui Ziliu said immediately.

"Help me find out the director of the tractor factory. It's best to catch him. I'll pay for it, no matter how much it is." Wang Gang said.

Before the water flowed, people came out to mix things up. Snakes have snake ways, rats have rat ways, and I know many people of different religions and five streams.

"No problem, I'll find someone right away, you wait for my news." Shui Ziliu agreed.

Satisfied, Wang Gang left Tu Zhiqiang's house, went to the bank to withdraw 1000 yuan, and then gave it to Shui Ziliu.

After receiving the money, Shui Ziliu was more active in doing things.

Wang Gang also taught Shuiziliu and Tu Zhiqiang some business tips. He worked in the courtyard world once, and he has experience and lessons, which can make Shuiziliu avoid many detours.

At the beginning, Shui Ziliu didn't care about it, thinking that Wang Gang had never done business and was talking on paper.

But soon he and Tu Zhiqiang took out paper and pens and took notes seriously like elementary school students.

After leaving Tu Zhiqiang's house, it was already twelve o'clock in the noon. Wang Gang did not go home, but went to the Golden Land Magazine to catch up with Shao Jingwen.

Returning after a two-year absence, Wang Gang discovered that the Golden Land magazine has basically remained the same, except that there are more people who are just eating and waiting to die.

Many magazine employees sit there bragging and chatting, and have no intention of working at all.

Shao Jingwen brought Wang Gang to his office.

"Why do you come to me when you have time?" Shao Jingwen and Wang Gang's relationship has long been unremarkable.

"I'm going to the capital tomorrow to do business. I'll come back before the Chinese New Year and I'll be there for the next four years, so I'll come over to say hello to you." Wang Gang said with a smile.

"Let's go so fast, isn't there still two months left before school starts?" Shao Jingwen asked doubtfully.

"I'm planning to go to the capital to find a house first. This time I will bring my whole family there. There are so many people who can't live in the school." Wang Gang explained.

"So that's the case. Anyway, you have money, so you might as well just buy a set."

Apart from Zheng Juan, Shao Jingwen was the only one who knew how much money Wang Gang had made in the past two years.

In fact, Shao Jingwen helped Wang Gang a lot in his successful publication of Shooting the Condors.

Don't forget the well digger when drinking water, Wang Gang has sent a lot of good things to Shao Jingwen in the past two years, including top-notch tobacco, wine and tea.

"Your kid's Bright Sword will be published soon!" Shao Jingwen asked.

"Not long ago, I negotiated with the publishing house that Liangjian will be published in a few days. It will be released in Jiangliao first, and the response will be tested. If it is good, it will be promoted nationwide." Wang Gang nodded.

Wang Gang was negotiating cooperation with Jiangliao Publishing House a year ago, but he has been stuck on the issue of copyright.

Jiangliao Publishing House wanted to buy out Liangjian, but Wang Gang never agreed. He only agreed to the sales share and didn't want to sell it out.

Besides, the price offered by Jiangliao Publishing House was too low, not enough for Wang Gang's monthly manuscript remuneration.

Later, Wang Gang really didn't want to procrastinate, so he published Liangjian at his own expense, printing [-] copies first and trying to distribute it.

"How is the magazine office recently? I see that many people are idle." Wang Gang asked.

Shao Jingwen sighed and said, "Don't mention it. Since you left, the sales volume of the magazine has been declining day by day, and the atmosphere in the magazine has become more and more wrong. There are too many people who eat vegetarian food."

Wang Gang was silent. In fact, this is not only a problem of the magazine, but also in many units of Jichun, and he can't change it.

After chatting with Shao Jingwen for a while, Wang Gang left a good cigarette, then took his leave and left. After returning home, Wang Gang found that Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei had arrived.

Seeing Zhou Bingyi, Wang Gang didn't sneer at him, nor paid attention to him, he just ignored him, made Zhou Bingyi so arrogant, and the two brothers ignored each other.

When eating at noon, Wang just said the first sentence to Zhou Bingyi:
"My dad arrives tomorrow. I'm going to the capital and I can't catch the train. Do you want to go?"

"Of course I'm going." Zhou Bingyi said.

The corner of Wang Gang's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he asked, "Can you borrow your father-in-law's car to pick up Dad?"

When Zhou Bingyi heard this, his face froze immediately.

Hao Dongmei was also a little embarrassed.

Wang Gang sneered in his heart, and said, "Why, Dad is not as lucky as you. He has never built a car in this life."

Zhou Bingyi noticed the sarcasm in Wang Gang's tone, but in front of Li Suhua, it was not easy to get angry.

Hao Dongmei stood up to smooth things over and said, "Bingkun, my father is busy with work and needs a car these days, so he may not be able to send a car."
