"Brother Gu, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to ask. ”

After eating a braised elbow, Ma Feng wiped his mouth full of oil, and his eyes were full of admiration.

"Asked. Gu Biao was gracious.

Ma Feng: "Why is the letter of introduction from your father's unit so good? I have the impression that the people of Hujiang are not very willing to cooperate with the villagers. ”

"It's nothing, this project is very mysterious, I just happened to come up with a trivial little idea to help Director Qin solve a small problem, so they trust me, and when they need technical information, they are assured to let me collect it." ”

Gu Biao was very modest, and did not say anything about the details that should not be said, but only hinted that the project was very important and was directly supervised by the central government.

With this bit of fur, he still cares about Ma Feng and must not spread it anymore.

Fortunately, everyone has just survived the era of road and purpose, so Ma Feng is still very aware of the risk of disaster coming out of his mouth. He immediately swore an oath that he would never leak it.

And Ma Feng's energy towards Gu Biao in his heart became more and more awe-inspiring.

Originally, I just thought that this big brother was righteous and could cover it, so I mixed up with him.

Now that he is driven by his own interests, he feels that "with such a big guy, he will definitely be very promising".

In fact, even after many years, Ma Feng himself became famous. When he looks back on the cornerstone of his road to success, he often says, "If it wasn't for the big guy who taught me how to be a person, I wouldn't have achieved what I have today."

After the two finished eating, they had enough, and they saw that there were still more than two hours before the departure.

Gu Biao didn't have anything to do, so he sat in the waiting room, opened the "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series" he bought, and began to review the first volume of "High School Algebra".

Ma Feng's grades are on the liberal arts side, and he barely passes the level of junior high school mathematics, which is definitely incomprehensible now.

And according to the original development trajectory of history, Ma Feng will be a liberal arts student when he takes the college entrance examination in the future.

So this set of 10 volumes of self-study books, he actually bought a bit of a waste - the mathematics part of the first 4 volumes can be used, and the later physics and chemistry do not need to be studied at all.

Because he couldn't read the book, he was idle and bored, and he was inspired by the information "Buy meat in Hujiang and don't need meat tickets" when he was shopping just now, Ma Feng's brain began to spin blindly.

He instigated: "Brother Gu, can you lend me a few yuan, I'll go see if there is any meat to sell in the nearby vegetable market, and bring a few catties back."

I know the black market market in Qiantang, as long as the meat is good enough, 1 yuan 5 a pound can be sold, and there is an average of 1 yuan 2. As soon as we turn it upside down, won't we earn back today's ticket money......"

Gu Biao thought about it, and didn't want to risk leaving a stain, so he confirmed: "You only borrow money, don't you need to introduce Xinhu fake Huwei, right?"

Ma Feng hurriedly said: "No, didn't the aunt also say it just now, Hujiang doesn't need a meat ticket to buy meat." I'll just borrow money, and then I'll do all the information myself, and buy it when I can.

If that auntie is not right, I will stop and return the money to you immediately. If it happens, we will split the profits in half. Even if you are really found by the road police, you will push it on me - anyway, my house is still black five, and I don't have to raise the middle school in the first place, and the lice don't itch. ”

Ma Feng's plan is very concise and clear: Gu Biao pays the principal and the qualifications to buy the ticket, and he Ma Feng comes to risk this "in case of an accident, he will bear the blame and bear the stain".

After listening to Ma Feng's logical and clear plan, Gu Biao began to believe: Some people are really born to know when it comes to business.

Gu Biao took out two big unity: "Okay, I'll borrow you 20 yuan to try, go and come back quickly." ”

Gu Biao brought a total of 100 yuan with him on this trip, and it cost 68 yuan to buy books, as well as car and ferry tickets and meals, so he only saved working capital in his early 20s.

"Okay, wait for my news. Ma Feng took the money and flashed excitedly.

Gu Biao calmed down and continued to review algebra. A lot of knowledge that I had learned and had just been returned to the teacher after years of non-use was quickly picked up.

In just a little bit of time, he skimmed through dozens of pages.

He also has a more intuitive understanding of the clarity of the steps of answering the proof questions in this era - many later generations of students feel that there is no need to write out, and the well-known process is now written in great detail, and each step is scored.

Seeing that at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, half an hour before the drive, Ma Feng finally returned. The schoolbag that was specially vacated when he left was stuffed again.

"Why are there so many?" Gu Biao was startled when he saw this scene, and asked in a low voice.

"Eight cents a pound, a full 25 pounds! The capital is all spent, if you want to do it, you can do it!" Ma Feng's eyes flashed with the fiery emotion of earning enough pocket money.

"Don't do this in the future! It's just a few catties per person, you're too risky!" Gu Biao couldn't help but teach a lesson.

But when the problem arises, we still have to find a way to solve it.

Besides, this matter has come to this point, and there is also Gu Biao's own problem - who made him give so much capital to the other party?

So Gu Biao asked Ma Feng to divide half of the meat into his schoolbag (all wrapped tightly in oiled paper), and then the two of them each covered the counseling book on the meat to disguise.

In this way, even if you encounter an inspection, you can prevaricate.

Ma Feng also knew that he was a little impulsive just now, so he patted his chest and made up for it: "If it is really turned over, I will say that you don't know, and I secretly hid it behind your back." ”

After a while, the starting point arrived, everyone got on the bus one after another, and Gu Biao tied the bicycle to the roof of the long-distance car. Then the car drove slowly towards Qiantang at a speed of less than 60 kilometers per hour.

When I passed by Matsue, I was really stopped for a temporary inspection.

A road policeman wearing a red armband and holding a red and white lacquered wooden stick got into the car and looked around, routinely checking to see if there were any blind fugitives or something.

Seeing Gu Biao and Ma Feng going out of the house, he also asked, "Why did you go out at a young age and bring so many things?"

Gu Biao replied calmly: "I came to buy books - my father asked for a lot of technical information in the factory, but there was no one in the field, so he came to Hujiang to purchase it." ”

When the road police heard this, they seemed to be a little proud of their hometown, so they didn't ask again.

There are no dangers along the way.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, it was already dark, and the car arrived in Qiantang.

Ma Feng was ready to say goodbye to Gu Biao, and then went to the black market to sell the meat secretly.

Gu Biao had never been to the black market, so he was a little curious, so he decided to take a look: "I'll go with you, just take a look on the side." ”

"Okay," Ma Feng thought that Gu Biao was going to check the accounts, so he didn't think much about it.

They relied on a phoenix bicycle, planted two people, 25 catties of pork, and more than 30 books, and rode to the camp gate in the north of the city.

After a few decades, the camp gate is, of course, the center of the city. However, today's Qiantang City is much smaller, so it is close to the "North Huancheng Road" to the north of the city.

This is a famous black market in Qiantang, where all kinds of unplanned goods that do not require tickets but are expensive can be bought here.

The well-known dual-track price system, one of the important "tracks", is supported by these places.

Ma Feng didn't look for a stall, and there could be no stall, so he poured all the meat into a schoolbag, and then slightly lifted the lid of the schoolbag, revealing half a piece of meat.

He also stuck a dogtail grass in the meat that he had plucked out of nowhere, and walked back and forth there in pretense.

Gu Biao watched secretly and was dumbfounded: Is this the 70s, or has it traveled to "Water Margin"?

Not to mention, such a quaint trick really works.

Ma Feng walked for less than a hundred meters, and an aunt came over and poked him on the shoulder, and began to ask the price tacitly.

"Five a piece? It's too expensive! Other families don't want meat tickets, it's only two pieces a piece!" The aunt was very dissatisfied with the quotation and pressed him with the market.

Ma Feng said loudly: "One piece of two has a piece of two to sell - then I am like them, pork belly and mixed meat are sold, you are either this pure pork belly! Or it is a high-quality sandwich strip of meat with fat meat at least four fingers thick! Can the quality be the same?"

Gu Biao watched it for 15 minutes, and Ma Feng sold 20 catties of good meat and took back 26 yuan.

Ma Feng wiped his sweat, took his hands that had become greasy, and handed over all the money and a small chop of about two or three catties to Gu Biao.

"Brother Gu, there are still 5 catties left for sale, let's divide them and take them back and eat them slowly." Just selling the first 20 catties, it has already made a net profit of 6 yuan compared to the total purchase price. I'll give you 3 bucks too, and I still owe you 16 for the 20 dollars I bought the book. ”

Today's meat is the best selling fat, and the most expensive part of the later generations, the chops, is not liked by anyone now: thin and ribs.

According to the sales method of state-owned vegetable farms, good meat and poor meat are forcibly apportioned and sold in tie-ins, so it is more than six cents and one catty.

But when it comes to the black market, you can do things according to the laws of the market, and good meat is more expensive than bad meat.

As a result, the people who sell meat in state-run vegetable farms now have a high social status, and the whole world wants to woo them – because they have the power to reallocate planned resources from good and bad ones.

has a good relationship with you, the same six cents and a pound of meat tickets, and the meat you are given will be a little fatter.

If you don't have a good relationship with another person, you will give him a little more meat and bones, and the people who are cheated will have no place to complain.

So much so that the wives of the meat sellers are the most beautiful girls in society.

Ma Feng's marketing methods just now, Gu Biao also saw it, and he was very able to pick out the good meat, and it was blown to the sky and sold at a high price. But this also led to the fact that in the end, there were five catties of chops that could not be sold at all, and Ma Feng felt that it was better to take them home and eat them.

Gu Biao can see from this: Ma Feng's business accounting ideas are still in a relatively primitive and simple stage, so no part of them is willing to discount the price at a loss.

But anyone who has been a little upside down for a few days in later generations knows that it was very profitable when it was first listed, and when the style was outdated, even if it was lower than the cost price of the fabric, it had to be cleared.

However, considering the age of the other party, Gu Biao didn't plan to break it, so he accepted the money and meat with peace of mind, and then went back to his own house.

For a 14-year-old child, it's good to be able to do this.
