Chapter 297: Old Fat
It should be said that it is rare for the "general" to be so responsible, and his ideas are also in place.
Even if it is to "break the fortune and eliminate the disaster", this problem should be solved quickly and chaotically in order to avoid worse results.
But there is still a big gap between thinking and doing. The "general" didn't expect that there would be so many people in Bincheng who were anxious to get rid of the "sea cucumber".
Just after the National Day, the price of sea cucumbers has fallen a little, but the private transaction volume continues to be sluggish. It is difficult for the "general" to sell the sea cucumber smoothly in a short period of time.
In this case, the "general" can only start the idea of his own other assets. I tried to sell the wine, watches, and wood that I had managed to accumulate.
He first sent Manager Xie and the traffic captain twenty watches to pay off the debt. and asked the two of them to help find a way.
At the same time, he also asked the "old fat" who came to Bencheng on a business trip at this time of year every year. He felt that this old friend in the business had many connections, and he might be able to help him find a buyer sooner.
But then I didn't expect that after "Lao Fei" learned about his situation, he actually said that he had finished his work and would go back to Harbin tomorrow, and I was afraid that he would not be able to find a buyer for him.
However, it gave him another idea.
The meaning of "old fat" is that the sea cucumber of the "general" can't be sold in Bincheng, it doesn't matter, if he is willing, he can help sell it in Harbin. There are more ways for him there, and before the Mid-Autumn Festival, he can sell it for almost forty yuan a catty. It's just that he didn't have any cash in his hand to give the "general", and this time the work was handed over to the related unit, so he could only sell the sea cucumber and then remit the money.
The "General" was surprised for a moment, and then hesitated.
This is a good idea, but the original transaction was to pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. In addition, he didn't know when the sea cucumber would be sold, 10,000 yuan was a lot of money, he was in a hurry to use it, and he was afraid that it would be a little too late.
"Old Fat" seemed to see the worry of the "general", and then said, "Brother, if you don't worry, brother, I can give you an IOU." It's a big deal that I'll sell your goods first when I go back, and if it's not good to sell, I'll help you make money when I go back. Anyway, I estimate that I can send it to you in at least three days, or at most five days, so I guarantee that it won't delay you. After working together for so long, don't you still believe me?"
At this point, the "general" who was so anxious that he burned his eyebrows was really tempted. So out of trust in his long-term friendship, he handed over 300 catties of dried sea cucumbers to "Lao Fei" early the next morning.
After taking the IOU issued by "Lao Fei", the "general" also said that he would ask for 10,000 yuan, and all the extra sold was the remuneration of "Lao Fei". And personally helped to send the sea cucumber and "old fat" on the train.
In the next few days, the "general" has been thinking about whether the "old fat" sells goods smoothly, and looks forward to getting the money as soon as possible to pay off those foreign debts first.
That way, he can breathe a sigh of relief. Next, Man can start slowly and give the rest of the sea cucumbers to the brothers.
He calculated that even his own things plus the remaining sea cucumbers were roughly worth 60,000 yuan. The money of the "old saury" must be repaid in full. With a deficit of 15,000, it won't be too difficult to let those six boys carry it and look at their economic situation.
In case the sea cucumber has to rise a little more before the Spring Festival, this hole may be filled. In this way, everyone will have nothing to say, and he will be worthy of everyone.
His money is gone, it's a big deal to earn it again, anyway, he is still young and can go to sea......
He just calmly thought, waited, and calculated......
But God seems to be a lover of biting sick ducks. The "general" never expected that at such a critical time, he would encounter another betrayal that made matters worse.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, he was full of expectations, but he didn't wait for the remittance notice of "Lao Fei", and he couldn't find anyone when he called "Lao Fei".
Now he panicked, and he couldn't help but have a shadow in his heart, and the only thing he could do was keep calling.
In the end, just when he was about to go on the road to Harbin, after perseverance, the call of "Lao Fei" finally got through. But when he learned the truth, he almost blew up his lungs.
Dare to love "Lao Fei" directly showed him his hole cards, and actually told him that the money for the sea cucumber should not be asked.
also said that the "general" was too confused, in fact, the reason why the sea cucumbers in Bincheng could not be sold was because the people who collected the sea cucumbers were buyers like themselves.
They use all public funds, and they can't do anything if they don't do it. If you can't fill the hole, you can't explain it to the public.
"Lao Fei" said that he had lost money this time, and he originally wanted to borrow money from the "general", but if he couldn't borrow it, he had to jump into the sea. didn't expect the "general" to send it to the door himself, and he believed him so easily. Since God gave him the chance to live, how could he miss this opportunity?
Hearing this, the "general" could no longer restrain his anger, and regardless of the attention of the people in the telephone building, he yelled at the phone. "Bastard, I have your IOU, I'm going to Harbin to find you!"
didn't expect "Lao Fei" to care at all, because his real name was "Yu Maocai", but he deliberately wrote "Yu Maocai" on the IOU, and deliberately miswrote the name of "General" as "Jiang Haichao". To put it bluntly, because the "general" was negligent, this is a piece of waste paper.
What's more, so many sea cucumbers are enough to prove that the "generals" are involved in speculation. If this IOU is really taken out, I am afraid that not only will it not return the money, but it will be even worse for the "general" himself.
As for the "general" who came to the door to make a move, the "old fat" was not frightened, he had already moved his family to the forest area, and some of the lumberjacks here dared to come, and who might suffer.
This is not enough, this kid also said that he has already told the leader that he will go on a business trip in another place. It will never appear in Ben Thanh again. The tone was full of pride, and there was nothing missing.
The "general" held the phone, and he was so angry that he trembled. Again striking a scolding.
"Bastard, I saved you in the first place, and I have treated you as a friend for so many years. You're a white-eyed wolf......"
But "Lao Fei" has his own set of theories, and he shamelessly taught the "general" another lesson over the phone.
"It's not that I'm not mean enough, brother, you have indeed been kind to me, but this time it is a matter of life and death, what can I do?
"You are righteous, but you are also stupid and righteous, and you still want to pay the full amount to the inconsequential person. Since you have the heart to purify all sentient beings, shouldn't you save me?"
"I tell you, I'm actually sad to lie to you, and I will never forget your kindness to me. But you also have to know that everyone is a mortal in front of money. Otherwise, when you lose money, why won't your brothers help you bear it?"
"You don't want to think about it, everyone is friends together, who is not for the sea cucumber? When this kind of disaster comes, of course, you can only take care of yourself! This is the foundation of friendship. If you still don't understand this truth, you will be more unlucky than anyone else......"
After hanging up the phone, the burly "general" could barely stand. In the curious and sympathetic eyes of many people, he just left the long-distance telephone hall and sat down on the steps of the door.
After returning home, he quietly hid back in his house.
His heart was uncomfortable, he couldn't express his grievances, and his mind was completely messed up!
For a while, he was thinking about how to open this mouth with his brothers, and for a while, he wanted to simply go to the forest area and slaughter the "old fat", but what about the debts on his body? He couldn't let Han Ying face all this alone with his children......
In this way, I sat in a daze until Han Ying came back from work.
Seeing the "general" like this, Han Ying knew that something was wrong, and immediately called water to wipe his face.
But the "general" was stunned, as if he didn't see her, and always looked at the roof like a stiff stone sculpture.
Han Ying began to push his face, "Haichao, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me, talk quickly!"
The "general" who couldn't think of a reason for coming didn't say anything at this time, just slapped himself in the face, and then began to pull his hair. His eyes were blood-red, and the undersides of his eyes were bloodshot from the fire.
Han Ying rushed over and grabbed his hand tightly, because she used too much force, she broke her foot at once. But he still endured the pain and said, "Don't do this, please." Anyway, I still have me, you still have children, and your mother, and your sister's family, and so many brothers, I believe that no matter how difficult it is, we can also get over it......"
At this time, the "general" finally confided the truth to Han Ying, and said in a weak voice, "My sea cucumber business has lost a lot, and my brothers have turned against me because of this, and I have to take on all the debts." But let the 'old fat' be deceived again. Now our family is destitute, and the more than 10,000 that we didn't have in the first place has become more than 20,000. 'Old Fat' also called me a fool, I ...... What a fool I am...... I'm sorry brothers, I'm sorry for the family, I'm sorry for you and my son...... The big guy's good life is all ruined by me......"
When the whole process was described in detail, the eyes of this man cast of steel and iron were moist, and he couldn't say any more shyly.
But what he didn't expect was that Han Ying showed amazing courage, although she looked shocked during the whole process, she quickly calmed down.
He actually comforted him and said, "Haichao! You are not stupid, you are kind." That's why I'm not at ease when I marry you! I can't rely on you for this, it's not your fault alone! Besides, it's no fun to worry about it now. It doesn't matter, we don't lose our hearts if we lose, and if we lose money, let's earn it again. Yes, 20,000 yuan is a huge amount of money, but then again, we didn't think that we could have so much money, it's a big deal to start all over again, as long as people are good, they are better than anything else. Anyway, I'll be with you ...... hardships."
This made the "general" feel warm in his heart, and he held Han Ying's hand tightly, moving and excited.
His wife's encouragement and understanding made him feel that his strength had returned. I have the courage to face all problems again!
