Chapter 0022: Persuasion
Until Su Shaohua paid Zeng Wei's remuneration in March and left with the signed contract, Zeng Chuipu and Yan Chengxiu had not come back to their senses.
From the moment they were called back from the ground by Zeng Wei and heard Su Shaohua talk about it, they were in a state of confusion. It's just that mechanically, under the command of his son, signed the contract, and then was directed to send the middle-aged man named Mr. Su out.
If it weren't for the nearly two thousand yuan in cash that Mr. Su had taken out, they wouldn't have believed that all of this was true.
There is no way, today's events have brought them too much impact.
………………
When they sent Su Shaohua out of the door and returned to the house, they saw their son Zeng Wei sitting cross-legged at the table at home counting money and playing.
Even if they had already seen the stack of the four great men just now, but seeing them again at this moment, the two of them still felt a little dizzy.
It's not that they haven't seen so much money before, as the first 10,000 yuan household in Qili Township, the two of them have seen a big scene, and such a thousand yuan or two thousand yuan is really nothing.
What makes their hearts beat faster is the meaning behind the money: from today onwards, every month from now on, their son will have at least that much income!
That's nearly 2,000 dollars!
With a monthly salary of 2,000 yuan, don't say that they haven't seen this before, even if they haven't thought about it!
Zeng Chuipu's first monthly salary in the tobacco factory was only eighty-five yuan. Even if he is now regular, his monthly salary is only less than 200 yuan.
As for Yan Chengxiu, she has been working hard for a year, except for various expenses, and her net income is probably not so much.
The expressions of both of them are very complicated, it is a good thing to have a smart son, but having such a demonic son makes their hearts full of confusion.
This thing is really unacceptable.
………………
Zeng Wei was very happy at this time, and when he saw his parents returning home, he immediately smiled and said, "Hehe, Mom, you came back just in time, see how my son's income is?"
Yan Chengxiu said a little nervously: "Sanmao, you tell your mother, is that person a liar?"
"It's less than 2,000 yuan, so I'm so nervous. Zeng Wei noticed the expressions of his parents, couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, made a disapproving look, and said, "It's all true, the contract is written there in black and white, and this money is also real money, how can it be fake?"
Seeing that his parents still looked incredulous, Zeng Wei said with a smile: "Parents, you have to work hard to adapt, you have to believe that our family will make more and more money in the future, and life will get better and better." ”
Yan Chengxiu calmed down, suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart, and said to Zeng Wei: "Sanmao, let's talk about the future in the future, now you give me the money first." Well, listen to Mr. Su, you still have a few hundred yuan of manuscript fees before, you shouldn't have used it up yet, give it to me!"
Zeng Wei's face suddenly fell, alas, my mother's desire to control is really strong, don't say anything else, as soon as she opens her mouth, she wants financial power.
However, he also knew that the financial power of the family was not in his turn for the time being, at least until he became an adult, and he should not think about this right.
It is inevitable to hand over financial power, but Zeng Wei doesn't want to be so easy. Even if you don't have control over the finances, you have to get the decision-making power before you hand over the financial power. Because he knows his parents too well, their investment vision is really too poor, if they are fully in control of the financial power, it would be good if the money could be preserved, and the biggest possibility is that they will soon lose all their money.
This was already a bloody lesson a few years ago. As for the future, the lessons of past lives can also be said to be innumerable.
A few times when the family's economic situation was a little better, they would soon return to the pre-liberation period with their investment.
The lessons of the past life must be taken as a warning in this life.
………………
Zeng Wei grabbed the money in his hand with one hand, waved his other little paw, and said, "Mom, it's no problem to give you the money, but have you thought about it, how to spend this money?"
Yan Chengxiu blurted out without thinking: "It's not simple, your three sisters will spend more than 1,000 to start school, plus you have to buy some New Year's goods for the New Year, as well as some gifts for New Year's greetings, which is almost 2,000." There are a few hundred thousand pieces left, so let's put them first, maybe I'll use them sometime. If you don't use it after the beginning of the year, you can pay off part of the loan at that time. ”
After listening to his mother's words, Zeng Wei really lost hope for his mother's vision. Obviously, she has done almost the worst with her funds.
There is nothing to say about the expenses mentioned above, these are impossible to save, but for the treatment of the remaining funds, in the next few years, is there a worse choice than depositing in the bank?
In later generations, there is a saying that if you have 10,000 yuan in the early 90s, you can show off that you are a 10,000 yuan household. If you only had 10,000 yuan in 2000, you could basically be called poor.
Although the amount of our hard-earned money in the bank has not decreased, the things we buy are getting worse year by year, as if its value has been stolen little by little.
And this guy who steals your wealth is called inflation. He has a very popular code name all over the world, called CPI.
In later generations, there was a saying that if you can't run Liu Fei, you have to run through the CPI, but there are very few people who really do it. Most people are being fooled by this inflation.
Inflation has existed since the birth of money, but the mid-nineties years were undoubtedly the most serious period since the founding of the People's Republic of China, especially in 1994, when the rate of price increase once reached 27.4%!
In such a situation, who would be stupid to think about repaying the loan first?
In any case, stop the mother's thoughts.
………………
Zeng Wei shook the hand holding the ticket in front of Yan Chengxiu and said, "Mom, if you deal with it like this, then I can't give you the money for anything." ”
When Yan Chengxiu heard this, he was immediately angry, and said in his heart that your kid is really going to turn the sky upside down, and you dare to talk to the old lady like this?
Looking at his mother, who was already on the verge of breaking out, Zeng Wei still said unhurriedly: "Mom, don't be busy getting angry first, listen to me first, okay?"
Yan Chengxiu glared at Zeng Wei and said, "You are a little child, what do you know?"
Zeng Wei said unconvinced: "What's wrong with me being a child? Have you ever seen a child like me who can help adults with ideas? Have you ever seen a child who can get a monthly salary of 2,000 yuan? Although I am a child, I am a genius child, a genius child that is rare in 10,000 years!"
Looking at his stinky son, Yan Chengxiu couldn't help but be happy. However, she also had to admit that what Zeng Wei said was reasonable.
Seeing that his mother's expression softened, Zeng Wei decided to add a fire and said, "Mom, look, I said before that I would let my father go to work in a tobacco factory, and this decision is right, right? Now my father can get a salary of about two hundred yuan a month, which is a net income of two or three thousand yuan a year, which is not less than the income from hard work at home for a year, right?"
After a pause, Zeng Wei continued: "Besides, you see that I write novels, and I can earn at least 2,000 yuan a month, which is much better than you used to farm at home, right?
Yan Chengxiu really has no temper, even if her son looks like a stinky fart and is not flat, but in the face of hard facts, she has nothing to say.
Zeng Wei finally made up for it and said: "Mom, if you do what I say, don't say more, the money my family earns in a year will not be less than the money I earn by writing novels!"
………………
Yan Chengxiu's eyes lit up, and he asked a little eagerly, "Sanmao, what you said is true?"
is not less than the money he makes from writing novels, which means that his idea will bring at least about 30,000 yuan of profit to his family every year, which makes her unbelievable.
After all, when the family was at its best before, the annual income was only 10,000 yuan, and the net income was 35,000 yuan.
Zeng Wei nodded, stretched out a palm, and said, "Of course, you just have to do what I say, if this year's income is lower than this amount, from next year, I will never say anything about the family's expenses." ”
Fifty thousand, so many, Yan Chengxiu couldn't help but swallow his saliva, a little moved, but more still couldn't believe it.
In the end, under the temptation of huge profits, she still nodded with difficulty and said, "Tell me first, what is our family going to do?"
Zeng Wei shook his outstretched hand and waved it vigorously, and then said: "Raise pigs, take out loans to raise pigs!"
As soon as Zeng Wei's words fell, Yan Chengxiu suddenly became calm, and said loudly: "No! Absolutely not! The current meat price is almost the same as the price of cabbage, and the pigs can't be sold, how can they raise pigs again?
Zeng Wei rolled his eyes and said, "Mom, can we still talk well? I said that if I can make money, I can make money! Before that, do you know that my father can make money by going to work in a cigarette factory? Do you know that writing novels can make money?"
Zeng Wei's words made Yan Chengxiu's anger drop a little, but he still looked disapplieving, and said: "This is all an accident, how can everything be the same as you think?"
Zeng Wei looked at his mother, who was a little duplicitous, and said with a smile: "Mom, that's not necessarily, who am I, I am a genius, a genius who can earn two thousand yuan a month!"
Yan Chengxiu felt that his son was really too untidy, and he was very unhappy.
Zeng Wei said: "Besides, didn't I say it, if you don't make money this year, I won't intervene in the affairs of the family next year, it's up to you to decide." Besides, I can make so much money every month now, even if my family loses some money this year, we can afford to lose it. ”
Yan Chengxiu pondered for a long time, and finally nodded.
