Reborn back to 1986

Chapter 21: Making Money (2)
The Ma family brothers came half an hour early, and brought several people to weigh, unload, and load the truck. They worked hard until noon before loading all the medicinal materials in a big truck.

Li Yan and Cui Wenwu didn't hold back the rainproof silk bag containing a huge sum of four thousand three hundred and sixty-eight yuan until the Ma brothers and his group had gone away in the car carrying the medicinal materials, and they couldn't suppress their joyful rejoicing. go back.

According to the previous promise, the root of each catty of medicinal materials will be paid [-] cents to the digger, and Li Yan and Cui Wenwu will earn the difference of [-] cents.The actual situation was much better than expected, and Li Yan directly negotiated a high price of [-] cents with the Ma brothers.

Based on future considerations, Li Yan and Cui Wenwu discussed and decided to increase the price to thirty-five cents per catty, five cents higher than the school's price.There is only one purpose for doing this, and that is to win people's hearts and tie up labor resources.

After returning to the bunker for lunch, Cui Wenwu summoned all the fifteen and a half children to his home, checked the numbers counted by everyone, and began to distribute money one by one.Most of these people earn 20 yuan, and the least earn [-] yuan. In more than ten days, it is double the monthly salary of ordinary workers. I gave it to Le Meng, and I kept thanking Cui Wenwu.

In the afternoon of that day, the collective root digging operation was suspended, which was regarded as a rest after hard work these days.

Cui Wenwu and Li Yan started to divide the money after driving away the group of half-children who were so excited that they almost knocked over the roof with money in their pockets.After deducting the 35 and [-] yuan earned by the two of them from digging their roots, there was [-] Lushilu yuan left. The banknotes and change were divided into several piles and neatly placed on the kang.

"Swallow, you came up with the idea, you contacted the person, and you negotiated the price. To be honest, the old man didn't do much. You paid sixty-five cents for the roots of the herbs I dug up. Just give it to me, and you can keep the rest of the money so that you can pay the tuition later.” Cui Wenwu is quite content with earning nearly 300 yuan.He said this from the heart.

Although what he said was correct, it would have been impossible to do this without Cui Wenwu.With her own strength alone, not to mention several thousand catties of medicinal herbs, even hundreds of catties may not be able to get them.For this point, Li Yan is quite self-aware.

Li Yan, who had already made a decision in her heart, did not talk nonsense with Cui Wenwu, and directly divided the money into two shares, and put half into his hands, saying: "Old uncle, don't talk any more, the money is worthless. The two of us will share equally, nine hundred yuan each, and the rest will be divided like this when they are sold out."

"But swallow, me."

Before Cui Wenwu finished speaking, Li Yan directly knocked him down: "Oh, old man, just put it away, it's really annoying." Then he jumped down from the edge of the kang, remembered something, and told him not to worry Said: "But old uncle, don't tell this matter, let people know that we earned half of the price difference, you will be sure to be told."

"Don't worry little girl, can I talk about this?" Cui Wenwu raised his index finger and scratched Li Yan's little nose.

After picking up the first bucket of gold in this life, Li Yan didn't tell her mother Cui Yufeng, and quietly hid the nine hundred yuan.

With the arrival of the farming season, everyone in Zhoujiabao began to get busy.The root-digging team led by Cui Wenwu began to become unstable. Today one family is farming, and the next one is helping out. The number of medicinal roots has dropped sharply.Fortunately, three days later, after the big wave of farming, all the staff returned and worked hard for two days. In addition to the more than 1000 catties in the previous warehouse, they finally managed to make up [-] catties for delivery as scheduled.

It's also because Cui Wenwu and Li Yan don't have much experience, so they forgot about the busy farming.Almost unable to complete the predetermined quantity, it can be regarded as a gain in wisdom.

When the Ma brothers left Lingshui Town, they specially invited Li Yan and Cui Wenwu to have a meal, and agreed to keep in touch, and to notify them in advance of any business, so that the two sides could work together to make money.

For them, it doesn't matter the age of the partner, the most important thing is to be able to provide the source of goods. After this deal, they will no longer underestimate the pair of uncles and nephews.Being able to predict market information in advance and actively recruiting people to dig up more than 1 catties of medicinal materials may not be possible even for two adults.During this trip to Lingshui Town, apart from receiving so many medicinal materials, the biggest gain was getting to know the two of them.

After seeing off the guests, Ma Huailiang said with emotion: "Brother, if you say Cui Wenwu is really good at it, he is really good at half a boy, and he made another four thousand catties in just a few days. We have made a lot of money this time." what."

Ma Huaicai kept looking at the direction the two were going away, and shook his head with a half-smile: "No, what you said is not completely right. The real one is not Cui Wenwu, but his little niece. She is only eight years old. My little girl...it will be amazing in the future!"

Li Yan, who had walked a long way, stopped suddenly, wrinkled her little nose, and sneezed 'Ah Qiao'.

"Who scolded me behind my back..."

This is how the May Day holiday ended. For Li Yan, it was a busy and joyful holiday.

What can an eight-year-old child do with fifteen hundred dollars?Don't doubt that in those days, children from ordinary families could be considered wealthy if they had a daily pocket money of ten or two cents.Even if you don't spend all of it and save it up, it will cost you at most thirty or so yuan a year.For a child of Li Yan's age, such a large sum of money may have never been seen before.

Of course, this is limited to ordinary children, and extraordinary people are naturally an exception.

With this amount of money, although Li Yan was very happy, she was not overjoyed. After all, for an adult who lived in the [-]th century for more than ten years, this figure is not really amazing. Normal office workers are a little bit corrupt, and only pay for a piece of clothing and a bag.On the contrary, I was a little worried when I was happy.

There will be no news from the Ma family brothers for a while, and the digging of the roots of medicinal materials can only come to an end.If you have any good ideas for making money, you can really think about it.

However, Li Yan didn't worry for long.To be precise, a week later, the time for the midterm exam of this semester has arrived.

As a student, learning is the main job, and making money is the side job.An eight-year-old elementary school student, it is not easy to blatantly drop out of school and go out of his way to earn money at home.Even if she wanted to, others might not agree.Her mother, Cui Yufeng alone, probably beat her ass to death and forced her to go to school.

At that time, the mid-term exams for first-grade primary school students were nothing more than the main subjects of mathematics and Chinese. For Li Yan, it was naturally easy and enjoyable, and she got double hundred points again without any suspense.

It's worth mentioning that Gao Xiaonian, a brat, didn't know if it was because he was frightened by Li Yan and then became enlightened. He went from the bottom two or three in the class to the 23rd in an instant, and became a middle-level student. .
