Rebirth 1980: Marrying my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Chapter 35 Xu Hong’s plan (please subscribe!)

Li Yi was in a good mood today. From selling mountain goods in the morning to selling cold skin at noon, he earned more than 600 yuan in just one day.

Even after excluding various expenses, the net profit today can reach 400 yuan.

When the private ownership economy is still being discussed, such an income is absolutely amazing, and even Li Yi himself is a little surprised.

Of course, this is mainly due to the substantial increase in the number of people responsible for picking mushrooms during this period.

It turns out that the only ones picking mushrooms for Li Yi are Dongzi and the others, and they can only collect more than 100 kilograms at most every day. If they encounter mushroom trays, they can occasionally reach [-] kilograms.

But now all the children in the village who can run are here, a total of 40 of them.

With more people, the output will naturally increase. The mountain goods delivered to Li Yi's house last night reached more than 800 kilograms, worth nearly [-] yuan.

Although Li Yi also knew that this kind of business would not last long, it already made him happy.

At least he could make his first pot of gold by doing this kind of small business before the implementation of the household responsibility system.

But what Li Yi didn't know was that his trouble would soon come!
Xu Hong asked for leave again today because he felt unwell and needed to see a doctor in the county.

Although Zhang Tongfu was dissatisfied with his behavior of asking for leave every now and then, he thought that the spring plowing had just ended and the autumn harvest was still some time away, so the production team's task was not heavy.

So I just turned a blind eye and approved his fake job!

But no one could imagine that Xu Hong took leave not to see a doctor, but to see Li Yi.

Ever since he learned that Li Yi was quietly doing small business in the county, Xu Hong's mind became more active.

It doesn't matter if he can't do the Liangpi business. Isn't there also a mushroom business? That thing doesn't have much gold content.

As long as he figures out Li Yi's sales channels, Xu Hong is confident that even a high school student like him can do it.

So Xu Hong came to the county town early today to guard Li Yi. He did not dare to follow him from the village, as he would be easily noticed.

When Xu Hong saw that Li Yi was delivering mushrooms to a state-owned hotel, he suddenly felt that he had finally figured out the core secret of Li Yi's money making.

In excitement, Xu Hong came to the state-owned hotel immediately after Li Yi left.

When the staff in the hotel saw someone coming in, they immediately greeted: "Comrade, our place will not be open until eleven o'clock!"

Xu Hong immediately said: "Hello comrade, I'm not here to eat!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the staff member frowned and said, "Why are you coming to a state-owned hotel if you don't want to eat?"

Just like the staff of supply and marketing cooperatives, from chefs to waiters in state-owned restaurants, they are all regular workers, the kind with an iron rice bowl.

Therefore, you must not compare the current hotel waiters with the waiters of future generations. If others say they are jealous of you, they will criticize you.

If you don't notice, there is clear text on the wall of the supply and marketing cooperative: "It is strictly prohibited to abuse and beat customers"!
Xu Hong didn't care about the attitude of the staff at the state-owned hotel, but said hurriedly: "I want to ask if you collect mushrooms here?"

The staff member glanced at Xu Hong and then said: "Take it, of course!"

"How much does that cost per pound/"

"It depends on the quality. You can pay six to seven cents for a higher quality product, and only three or four cents for an average quality one!" the staff member said calmly.After hearing that a pound of mushrooms could be sold for so much money, and then thinking about the Nianzi Mountain behind the village that was full of those things, Xu Hong suddenly seemed to see a lot of small coins waving to him.

"Thank you, comrade, then I will send you a batch tomorrow!" Xu Hong said.

"Row!"

Later, Xu Hong left the state-owned hotel with excitement!
However, what he didn't know was that just a few minutes after he left the hotel, Liu Jingshan came to the front desk and said to several staff members: "You guys, come here!"

After everyone had arrived, Liu Jingshan said loudly: "Now let me tell you something. Except for brother Li Yi, no one will sell mountain products in the future!"

"Director, why don't you accept it?" someone asked in surprise.

Liu Jingshan immediately said: "Our restaurant does not use a large amount of mushrooms, and we do not supply a lot of mushrooms to the city. In the past, brother Li Yi only delivered more than a hundred kilograms a day, but now he can deliver several hundred kilograms a day. It’s enough for us, why accept others’?”

Only then did everyone realize that today the person had delivered more than 800 kilograms of mountain products, and the mushrooms alone weighed more than 600 kilograms.

Moreover, mushrooms cannot be stored for a long time. If they cannot be sold on the same day, they can only be dried into dried mushrooms. It is really difficult to handle too many.

Liu Jingshan didn't care what these people would think, and left after informing them of the matter.

But Xu Hong didn't know that his mushroom business had died before it even started!
At noon, Xu Hong hid in the woods far away from the sugar factory, enduring the scorching sun and mosquito bites, and jealously watched Li Yi earn a lot of money with tears in his eyes.

On the way back, Xu Hong felt envious and jealous!
But he saw that a large truck of mountain goods was delivered to the state-owned hotel today. It weighed at least several hundred kilograms. According to the hotel staff, it cost sixty-seven cents per catty. Today, those mountain goods alone can make that second-rate guy how much money he has. One hundred dollars.

But Xu Hong knew that Li Yi didn't give much money to the children in the village. The older children received four or five yuan a day, and the younger children only received one or two yuan.

A profiteer, a real profiteer!
You don't have to do anything, just deliver the wild products picked by the children to the county town, and you can earn hundreds of dollars. I'm afraid there is no easier money to make than this in the world.

There is also the Liangpi business. Hundreds of people come to buy it every day. Even if you only make five cents from each person, that is still dozens of dollars!

And given the nature of that second-rate profiteer, he might only earn five cents.

Apparently, the Liangpi business is also very good.

More importantly, selling mushrooms is a seasonal business, and the output is not guaranteed. When the weather gets cold, the mushrooms will disappear.

But the Liangpi business is different. It can be done all year round. This is a precious chicken that lays golden eggs!

It's a pity that I, an authentic native of Qin Province, don't know how to do it. Are you angry or not?

So Xu Hong secretly decided that he wanted to grab Li Yi's mushroom business. If he couldn't do the Liangpi business, he would destroy him.

Therefore, along the way, Xu Hong was thinking about how to seize Li Yi's business and at the same time trick him.

After much thought, Xu Hong decided to go to the county no matter what tomorrow and report Li Yi's speculation.

In this way, I can take the opportunity to steal his mushroom business.

Xu Hong estimated that even if the speculators were not sentenced, they would have to be locked up for at least three to five months.

Even if that second-rate guy finally comes out by then, it will be almost autumn, the mushrooms will be gone by then, and he will earn almost enough, perfect!
Thinking of this, Xu Hong couldn't help but walk much faster!
