Reborn in the red age

Chapter 313 People’s Entrepreneur—The Struggle of Comrade Li Fuqiang

"Brother-in-law, I heard that you are very familiar with Boss Wang from the Wuxi DVD player factory?"

After staying in the store for a while, at noon, Hu Jiadong invited him to dinner, and Qingfeng Li naturally would not refuse. At the dinner table, after two glasses of wine, Hu Jiadong asked about business.

Hearing his uncle's words, Li Qingfeng sighed in his heart, as the saying goes, black eyes cannot see white money.

How long has it been since then? The once honest and honest uncle who was unwilling to take advantage of his brother-in-law has now changed his temper.

Regarding his relationship with Wang Weimin, Li Qingfeng did not hide anything, and said openly: "Yes, not only are I familiar with him, but Jiabao is also familiar with me. I was an old friend who joined the team to repair the earth."

"Oh, it turns out that you still have this relationship. Brother-in-law, you don't know that Boss Wang's DVD players are very popular in the state-owned stores in Shanghai. Every month, as soon as the DVD players arrive, they sell them in two or three days. It can be sold out, but unfortunately the output is not high, and we have never been able to find a way to purchase goods.”

The sister-in-law clapped her hands excitedly and told Qingfeng Li that the sales of video disc players were booming in the Magic City. The meaning was self-evident. She wanted to ask Qingfeng Li to do a favor and introduce them to them to get some supply of video disc players.

Qingfeng Li was a little embarrassed about his sister-in-law. Since the export was blocked and the domestic sales were switched to domestic sales, because the DVD players involved local financial subsidies, the products produced had to be sold to the provincial trading company, and the provincial trading company distributed them uniformly.

The two are equivalent to the relationship between manufacturers and dealers. The provincial trading company has the final say as to where the DVD player will be sold and at what price.

"The ex-factory price of one machine is one thousand seventeen, and the purchasing price of one hundred machines is one hundred and seventy thousand. Brother, can you take it?"

In the evening, when the whole family came back for dinner, Li Qingfeng mentioned the video player at the dinner table and said that the video player factory could provide 100 units every month.

After lunch, the sister-in-law did not let Qingfeng Li continue to take care of the child for them. Instead, she left the child in the store, saying that she wanted to take care of it herself.

Hu Jiadong noticed Qingfeng Li's dilemma and asked tentatively: "Brother-in-law, is it inconvenient?"

After listening to Qingfeng Li's story, the couple looked a little disappointed. They no longer mentioned the DVD player. Instead, they warmly greeted Qingfeng Li for dinner and chatted about their parents' personal problems.

Two days before the Chinese New Year, Li Qingfeng's family said goodbye to his father-in-law's family and took the train home to celebrate the Chinese New Year.

After Hu Jiadong was overjoyed, he immediately asked about the purchase price of the DVD player: "By the way, brother-in-law, how much is the purchase price of a machine? The price of DVD players in Shanghai is not cheap, and our family may not be able to afford this one." Hundreds of machines”

Good guy, after confirming the price of the DVD player, Li Qingfeng called him "good guy". The original price set by Qingfeng Li was two thousand, but after passing Wang Weimin's hand, it became two thousand two thousand, and after passing the provincial trading company's hand, the price was directly Soared to three thousand four.
Not to mention Qingfeng Li, even the capitalists who come here will tell me that I am not as good as me.

After all, they are all the closest relatives. For this small favor, Qingfeng Li will naturally help as much as he can. Anyway, it's not like he doesn't want to pay, so who can he sell things to?

"Brother, sister-in-law, you don't know something." Li Qingfeng simply explained the details inside.

"."

Although one hundred units is not many, it is still a lot. Suzhou is such a big place, and Hu Jiadong and the others are retail and not wholesalers, so one hundred units is enough.

Wang Weimin had gone home to celebrate the New Year. After receiving a call from Qingfeng Li, the left-behind staff at the DVD player factory immediately said that they could squeeze out a quota of 100 units per month for Qingfeng Li.

After telling Hu Jiadong the contact information of the DVD player factory, Qingfeng Li casually asked how much the DVD player sold in the Magic City Department Store. The result surprised Li Qingfeng.

"Three thousand and four"

"One hundred and seventy thousand, fortunately, our family can come up with this money."

"What? How much does a machine cost?"

Looking at Hu Jiadong's expression, Li Qingfeng thought that it seemed that the couple had really made a lot of money in the past two years, even paying 170,000 yuan for goods without changing his expression.

Naturally, Li Qingfeng would not refuse this. One junior high school student was enough. If he had to take care of three more children, Li Qingfeng would feel like he was going to have a nervous breakdown.

"Yeah, one hundred units is enough. If there are more, our store won't have that much capital to purchase the goods." The sister-in-law agreed happily.

When he returned to the family home of the hospital, Li Qingfeng did not rush upstairs. Instead, he used the public phone downstairs to call the video player factory and asked if the factory could sell small batches to self-employed individuals.

When I returned to my hometown this year, the treatment was improved by more than one level compared to last year.

When I came back last year, there was no one to greet me, but this year when I came back, I even got into a car.

Although it is a rusty and outdated Willys Jeep, it can still be considered a four-wheeled vehicle.

"Why don't you get in the car quickly? What are you looking at?"

After loading the luggage and everything into the car, Boss Li saw Qingfeng Li not getting in the car, but circling around the Willys Jeep, knocking on the car body from time to time, and asked with a smile.

Looking at the rusty car body, which was falling apart after a light tap, Li Qingfeng frowned and said, "Brother, this thing you drove here won't fall apart when you drive it, right?"

"Are you kidding? This is our director's car. It has been on battlefields and crossed mountains and seas without any problem. The leather is very durable. How could Layou's family fall apart?" Mr. Li laughed and cursed.

"Been on the battlefield? Which battlefield?"

"Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea"

"."

I sat on this pre-liberation product with trepidation. I was worried all the way that this thing would lose a wheel while driving, or be directly disconnected from the middle.

Fortunately, the materials used in the military vehicles produced by the United States are quite solid. Although it was very frustrating when driving, and it always gave people a feeling that it was about to die, but fortunately it arrived at the destination smoothly.

The house is a south-facing balcony. The weather is good today, and the sun is making us warm. In the courtyard, Father Li is lying on a rocking chair. There is a tape recorder on the stool next to him, which is playing the babbling sounds of Lu Opera.

Hearing the movement at the door, Li's father opened his eyes and squinted, stood up from the recliner, ignored Li Qingfeng, and greeted Hu Jiabao warmly, then took Fifteen from Hu Jiabao's arms, and held Chu's hand. One's little hands came to the rocking chair and started teasing.

In the first year of junior high school, he was a standard social cow. He hadn't seen Father Li in a year and was not afraid of strangers at all. He sat in Father Li's arms and kept calling him grandpa.

This made Father Li, who wanted to take a good look at his grandson, put his grandson into the hands of Mother Li, who had just heard the noise, and took the first grade of junior high school to go out to buy delicious food. "Oh, my grandson is really strong. He looks like a tiger with a big head. He will definitely grow up to be taller in the future." Mother Li completely ignored Qingfeng Li and his wife, holding Shi Fifteen in her arms without letting go.

When the couple packed their luggage and went downstairs, Li's mother was still teasing Fifteen.

Qingfeng Li moved a stool and sat next to Li's mother, and asked about the pirated disc business at home: "Mom, how are the pirated discs my dad made this year? Did you encounter any difficulties?"

"Well, don't you know? Didn't you find someone to buy all the printed things?" Li's mother was teasing Shi Shi and said casually.

"I have so many things going on every day, how can I keep focusing on my dad's things?"

"This pirated disc is okay. It's much better than working in a video parlor. Your dad has made a lot of money this year. He was still clamoring to buy a car a few years ago."

Hiss, this old man is making a lot of money. He uses a commercial recorder. Including the loss of the machine, the cost of one disc is about five yuan. The purchase price is eight yuan a piece. How many discs has this old man burned this year?

After asking Li's father where his pirate factory was, Qingfeng Li rode his family's bicycle and went to the pirate factory alone to prepare for a visit.

Arriving at a private house next to the main road, Qingfeng Li's mouth twitched as he looked at the signboard of Li's Compact Disc Printing Factory.

The most popular color steel tiles on the market were erected over the yard to protect from rain. Ten large commercial recorders were placed in the yard. Qingfeng Li's cousin Li Qi and several young people were busy in the yard. .

Li Qingfeng all knew these young people. They were either his cousins ​​or his cousins, and they were in the proper family business.

At this time, Father Li was also wandering in the courtyard with the first grade of junior high school holding candied haws in hand. Father Li pointed at the recorder and said to the first grade of junior high school in high spirits:

"My dear granddaughter, look at this, your grandfather and I have built a fortune from scratch. In just one year, your grandfather and I have appeared in the newspaper and become the richest man in the county and the leading entrepreneur in the county."

"Grandpa, what is the richest man?" Chu Yi said vaguely with a candied haws in his mouth.

Father Li patted his chest proudly: "He is the most powerful one. There are a total of 400,000 people in our county. Your grandfather and I are the most powerful one among these 400,000 people."

"Wow, Grandpa is so awesome." He stopped eating the candied haws on the first day of the junior high school and looked at Li's father with admiring eyes and applauded.

Before Li's father could enjoy his granddaughter's adoring eyes for a long time, Li Qingfeng's voice came faintly:
"Dad, don't lie to her just because she's so young in the first year of junior high school. Where did the 400,000 people in our county come from? The county's population is less than 200,000. Counting the rural population, it's over 300,000."

Father Li, who was bragging in front of his granddaughter, heard that Qingfeng Li dared to undermine him. He immediately got angry and said, "You know what the hell, you have only been back home a few times in the past ten years? The population of the county is so small." It has increased a lot in the past year, and after rounding up, there are 400,000 people in the county."

"Okay, okay, if you say 400,000, just 400,000, you are really awesome." Li Qingfeng said perfunctorily without arguing with him.

"Why did I say 400,000? Just 400,000. The population of the county is 400,000!"

Ignoring Father Li who was furious after being exposed, Qingfeng Li greeted his brothers one by one.

After a round of chatting, Li Qingfeng roughly knew the daily output of these ten machines. They could produce two thousand pirated discs a day. The products were underwritten, and they could make a gross profit of over four thousand a day. No wonder Li's father was clamoring to buy a car. It turned out that He really has this strength.

After chatting with the working brothers for a while, Qingfeng Li entered the office. Li's father, who was playing with the first year of junior high school, saw Qingfeng Li coming in. He snorted coldly and ignored him.

Qingfeng Li didn't care about Father Li's attitude. He moved a stool and sat next to the two of them. He stretched out his thumb and said with a smile: "Dad, you are so awesome. You make one million a year. You are definitely the number one in our county." entrepreneur"

"You don't need to tell me?" Father Li nodded proudly, then took out a newspaper from the drawer and handed it to Qingfeng Li: "Look, I, the richest man, have been certified by the newspaper."

Li Qingfeng took the newspaper and took a look. It was a four-page tabloid published by the county two months ago. It was a county-level daily newspaper.

The headline on the front page above is "People's Entrepreneur - The Struggle of Comrade Li Fuqiang", and there is a photo of Li's father below the title.

After a brief glance, the newspaper described Li's father as a big entrepreneur who worked hard and led the masses to get rich. It was full of praise and flattery.

After Qingfeng Li read it, he felt goosebumps all over his body. This bragging was indeed a bit much.

After looking at Father Li who had a stern look on his face, and then at the contents of the newspaper, Li Qingfeng said with a strange expression: "Dad, how much did it cost to have someone write such a newspaper?"

"Nonsense. This is an interview with a reporter from the county. It is all objective and fair. This is the county's evaluation of me. What did I spend?" Father Li was off guard by Qingfeng Li's words. Just squirt at Qingfeng Li.

Facing the furious Father Li, Li Qingfeng didn't say anything and just looked at him.

After a while, the guilty father Li couldn't stand the weird look in Qingfeng Li's eyes. He looked a little embarrassed. He hesitated for a long time and then whispered: "It's not much, so I gave the reporter two hundred yuan."

"I knew that if you didn't give me money, why would reporters praise you so much?"

Father Li opened his mouth but said nothing. He lowered his head and touched Chu Yi's head, ignoring Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng Li asked about the situation at Zheng Liangliang's place again and learned that Zheng Liangliang's work was pretty good. Two more machines were added at the end of the year. Qingfeng Li nodded with satisfaction.

When the Zheng family married a girl, they took the initiative to help the Li boss buy a three-turn and one ring, which gave the Li family face. Although Zheng Liangliang later married a daughter-in-law, the Li boss returned it, but the Zheng family's love is important to the Li family. .

This time, I helped Zheng Liangliang find a profitable job, which was a way of repaying the friendship between the Zheng family and the old couple.

After staying in the pirated disc factory for a while, Li Qingfeng looked at his watch and said to his father: "Dad, today is New Year's Eve. Let Li Qi and the others have a holiday from get off work. They are all relatives. How can you celebrate the New Year?" What kind of class do you want them to take? Aren't you afraid that my uncles and uncles will poke you in the back?"

"Don't worry, I'll get off work if you wait a little longer."

"It's almost noon, what are you waiting for?"

Just when Li Qingfeng was confused, Li Qi's voice came from the yard: "Second uncle, comrade reporters from the county are here to interview."

"Okay, I'll come right away"

Hearing this voice, Father Li quickly arranged his clothes, took out a stack of thick red envelopes from his bag, and walked out quickly with a smile.
