After several days of investigation, Li Jie plans to go to the countryside to collect eggs tomorrow. Although reselling goods is now prohibited, there are still some private traders.
Li Jie initially planned to set the purchasing point in Fangshan. After all, that was the place where he once joined the team. After staying there for two years, it was considered half of the home field and he was familiar with the surrounding areas.
If you were in another place and you were unfamiliar with the place, you would have wasted a lot of time in developing the market in the early stages.
In addition, the most important thing is that he is not easily suspected. Although the original owner was a little shy when he jumped in line, he was enthusiastic and loyal, and the local villagers had a very good impression of him.
Basically, the villagers would not suspect that he was doing something illegal, and there was no need for him to do the purchasing of eggs himself. He could just leave it to Secretary Yang of Xiaoqinghe Village.
Li Jie believed that Secretary Yang would not refuse this matter, because most of the villagers' eggs were for sale, and the villagers had to go to the town to sell their eggs.
By purchasing directly in the village, the villagers do not need to travel more than ten miles. Although the purchase price is a little cheaper than what is sold in the town, the villagers can sell it at any time, even a few eggs.
Going to town to sell only a few eggs is obviously not worth the gain, and the villagers won't resist it too much if they come back again and again.
The only trouble is that I have too little money. After deducting the money for buying cigarettes and alcohol, I only have 6 yuan and 13 cents. With this money, I can only buy about 170 eggs.
Xiaoqinghe is about 40 kilometers away from the city. If you run twice a week, you can earn about 30 yuan a month, which is equivalent to a month's salary of a second-level worker, after deducting the round-trip fare. You can earn some hard-earned money.
Fortunately, Li Jie only did this for a month. After all, the income was a bit low. After one month, the principal plus income would be about forty yuan.
You can do a lot of things with forty yuan, and saving three bicycles is not a problem.
These things must be hidden from the family. If they find out what they have done, it may not be as simple as being scolded.
Li Jie has prepared the place where the car should be modified and placed it at Uncle Guan's house.
Compared to his family members, the weathered Uncle Guan was obviously more courageous. Li Jie told him all the plans, including the follow-up big bowl of tea plan.
If he didn't tell the truth, the old man would probably not agree. He was not afraid of trouble, but worried that his apprentice would be caught. Once he was caught, his life would be basically ruined.
The old man has experienced the late Qing Dynasty, Beiyang, the Republic of China, and the Chinese Dynasty. He has a sharp eye and has already seen through the current situation. Li Jie discussed the college entrance examination with him a few days ago.
At that time, the old man asserted that it would not be long before the college entrance examination was resumed, no more than three years at most. Li Jie remembered the old man’s sonorous and powerful words very clearly.
'No matter what era, education will always be a bridge for social development. The country will not turn a blind eye. The lessons of the past ten years have been borne in mind and it is impossible for another decade to happen again. '
Li Jie was surprised when he heard these words. The old man's vision was really rare. If it were not for the restriction of his identity, the old man might be in a different situation.
The next day, when the sky was dark, Li Jie set out for Xiaoqinghe. After more than two hours of trekking, he arrived at Xiaoqinghe facing the rising sun.
"Chunming? Why are you here? What, are you homesick?" Secretary Yang said in surprise when he saw Li Jie appearing in front of him.
Li Jie chuckled: "Secretary Yang, it's like this. There is a shortage of eggs in the city recently. Our leader asked me to go to the countryside to collect some eggs. Didn't I just think of you? Xiaoqinghe is my second hometown."
The original owner had a good impression on Secretary Yang. Under the preconception, Secretary Yang did not doubt the authenticity of the matter at the first time, but instead greeted him warmly.
"By the way, have you had breakfast? If not, come to my house to have some."
"Thank you, Secretary Yang. I came here after breakfast." Li Jie smiled and waved his hand.
Secretary Yang nodded and immediately said, "Is this deal long-term? Or short-term?"
Li Jie smiled a little apologetically: "It's short-term, probably only a month or two."
Hearing this answer, Secretary Yang was a little disappointed. In fact, he hoped that this business could continue for a long time, because only a long-term business can help the villagers increase their income.
A one-time sale cannot bring substantial income to the villagers of Xiaoqinghe.
However, the disappointment on his face only flashed away. No matter how small a mosquito's legs are, they are still meat. You should still be grateful. After all, they have good intentions.
"Chunming, thank you for thinking of our Xiaoqinghe for the first time. I'll take care of this matter. By the way, how are you going to collect your eggs?"
According to common sense, you need documents when you come to the countryside to purchase things. The reason why Secretary Yang did not doubt it was because it was a one-time deal. There was no need to ask more questions. It was really speculation, and he would definitely not just do one or two. moon.
"I'll come here in about three days, and I'll take two hundred back today." Li Jie answered truthfully.
"Oh? Two hundred?"
Secretary Yang smacked his lips. There were more than 200 households in their village and they purchased 200 eggs. The purchase amount was a bit small, but it could be done once every three days.
"Okay, I'll take you with me later."
With the secretary leading me, the process of collecting eggs went smoothly. I didn’t even get a third of the way, but the box was filled with eggs.
After paying the last amount of money in his pocket, Li Jie patted the bamboo basket and thanked him.
"Secretary Yang, I'm really bothering you today. If it weren't for your help, I probably wouldn't have collected all the eggs so quickly."
"Chunming, you are just too polite. It's not a matter of helping or not helping with this trivial matter. If you really want to say it, I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, these villagers would have to travel more than ten miles. Go sell eggs." Secretary Yang joked.
"Delu, then I won't be polite."
After speaking, Li Jie looked up at the sky and continued: "Secretary Yang, it's getting late. I have to go back to the city."
Secretary Yang nodded slightly: "Well, go ahead, go ahead. Be careful on the way and don't touch the eggs."
…………
As the sun set, Li Jie sold out all the eggs he collected from Xiaoqinghe this morning, and the RMB in his pocket officially exceeded the ten yuan mark.
Ten dollars and one cent!
Although he has more money on hand, Li Jie has no intention of increasing his purchases to avoid arousing Secretary Yang's suspicion.
There is no need to get into unnecessary trouble just for this little money. It doesn't matter if you make less, the key is to be more stable.
In the following period, Li Jie went to Xiaoqinghe every three days, and the eggs collected each time were sold out on the same day.
A month has passed by and the egg reselling business is coming to an end.
