Chapter 10: The First Pot of Gold
Tuesday, 13 April 2004.
Li Dong woke up before four o'clock, waited for Cao Fang to leave before getting up to wash, and hurried to the Dongping market.
Yesterday afternoon, the truck that had been contacted was waiting at the intersection on the side of the market, Li Dong stepped forward to greet the truck master, and the two chatted a few words, and Lao Wang also rushed over.
"Dongzi, the goods are ready, you can see for yourself, no problem, let's go through the scales." ”
Li Dong is not hypocritical, this is his first time trading, whether he is an acquaintance or not, he has to look carefully, if he cheats himself, he will be in trouble.
Besides, I am not too familiar with Lao Wang, and it is not impossible to do business and like to kill familiar.
Lao Wang's truck was neatly stacked with dozens of plastic frames, one piece red, Li Dong grabbed a few lobsters and checked the weight, the size was not small, and the size was half open.
The main thing is to look at the spirit, if you die before you reach the provincial capital, then you will lose a lot.
After a spot check around, it's okay, Lao Wang is still particular about doing business, his spirit is good, and he doesn't die much, Li Dong nodded and signaled that it was okay.
Weigh over, settle, a lot of work.
Removing the dead ones, there are still 11,000 catties after calculation.
Lao Wang casually pulled off a few dead lobsters, lay on the stool and wrote and calculated for a while, raised his head and said to Li Dong: "Dongzi, a total of 11,096 catties, the odds are wiped for you, 22,000 yuan is right?"
"That's right, thank you, Uncle Wang. ”
There is no need for Lao Wang to speak, Li Dong continued: "I'll give you a note, press your fingerprints, and settle the bill in three days." ”
Lao Wang smiled and said loudly: "Chang Liang! You kid is a cheerful person, if you sell well this time, continue to look for me next time, Uncle Wang promises to give you the best price!"
The two wrote down the notes while talking, Li Dong pressed his fingerprints, and Lao Wang also beckoned someone to help Li Dong load the goods.
After some tossing, the sky was already hazy, Li Dong looked at his phone, six o'clock.
After saying goodbye to Lao Wang, Li Dong got into his rented truck and quickly drove towards Pingchuan.
As for the truck master, he didn't ask Li Dong why he wanted to send the freight to the provincial capital, Li Dong paid a thousand yuan for freight, which was not cheap, and he didn't take it seriously if he couldn't tell others.
This year, everyone has done their own thing, as long as he has money to make, Li Dong said that if he will find him after this success, if he can pull ten times or eight times a month, he will make a lot of money.
……
It was already half past nine in Pingchuan, and Li Dong had already called the bearded boss halfway through.
The truck was parked in an open space behind the South Gate Market, and the bearded man was already waiting, followed by a few people, presumably his cousins.
As soon as the car stopped, the bearded man hurriedly wanted to see the goods, and Li Dong didn't stop him.
Unloading a basket of lobsters, the bearded man looked at it, pulled it a few times and nodded behind him.
Seeing this, several other people hurriedly stepped forward to check, and after five or six minutes, the bearded man was satisfied and said: "Yes, the spirit is quite good, can you guarantee that it will be this color in the future?"
"Don't worry, I can still cheat Boss Chen?" Li Dong also smiled, "It's not too early to see the time, or let's unload the scales? ”
"Haha, happy! Then the old brother will take advantage of you, let's unload the goods!"
Say hello, you don't need to find someone else, several men are selling aquatic products, and they are very skilled in doing this.
It's faster than Dongping's, and it's counted in half an hour.
Some of the bumps on the road died, but not much, dozens of pounds.
plus the shrinkage a little, calculated down to 11,000 catties, the bearded man and Li Dong didn't care about these catties, and in the end it was settled at 11,000 catties.
The bearded family's business is not small, and it is not difficult to take out tens of thousands of yuan in cash.
settled the payment with Li Dong on the spot, threw away the previous deposit of 3,000, and handed the remaining 52,000 to Li Dong wrapped in newspapers, along with Li Dong's ID card.
Li Dong took the money and counted it himself, and was relieved to make sure it was accurate.
Immediately afterwards, his face showed an uncontrollable joy, 20,000 taels of payment, 1,000 freight, and the workers did not ask for money to get on and off the goods, and this change of hands was more than 20,000 yuan.
It's a little incredible, and it's also a little unbelievable that no one does anything with such a big profit in Dongping!
This thing is too simple, there is no technical content at all, and those fishmongers in Dongping are willing to take a little risk, and this meat will not be his turn Li Dong to eat.
But think about it again, it won't be long before this is a unique business, Li Dong is a little disappointed, if he can continue to do this, how can he do anything else, 20,000 a day, and he can sit and eat and wait for death in less than a year.
The slight loss in my heart quickly disappeared, and I had to be content, and I could earn so much in just one or two days.
After chatting with the bearded boss for a few words, people were busy doing business and leaving, Li Dong didn't bother, got into the truck and went back to Dongping with the master.
Fortunately, the truck master had just been opened, otherwise he would have thought about it when he saw that so much money could not be guaranteed.
Li Dong wondered if he would change to a truck master next time, but he couldn't change it for a while, and he couldn't find so many people for a while.
Thinking about it again, as long as you hide it for the next two months, the business should be over, and you pay a high price for freight, and the truck master doesn't see how much money he makes, so he won't think about anything else.
……
There was nothing to say all the way, and Li Dong arrived in Dongping at less than two o'clock in the afternoon.
After getting off the bus near the school, Li Dong hurried to the class, and the afternoon class had not yet started.
Wang Jie was a little worried when he saw Li Dong coming, and hurriedly said: "Dongzi, you didn't come in the morning, Lao Chen was angry, and I just went to the class to look for you." ”
Li Dong patted his head, but he forgot to ask for leave.
It's not that I'm afraid that Lao Chen will get angry, but I'm worried that the teacher will call his parents, and now is the most critical juncture, if my parents know that they have skipped class, they won't be mad.
didn't bother to talk to Wang Jie, Li Dong hurried to the office to find Chen Guohua.
……
In the office, Chen Guohua was correcting the test papers, and when he looked up, he saw Li Dong coming and said with a black face: "Did you skip class in the morning? Do you know how much you took in this mock test?"
Li Dong was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he heard Wang Jie say that he had taken a mock test a few days ago, but he hadn't been reborn at that time, and he didn't care.
Chen Guohua didn't wait for Li Dong to reply, and said to himself: "Five hundred and twenty points!"
"Class rank thirty-seven, when you first entered high school, I remember that the class ranking seemed to be seventh, and I dropped thirty places!
Chen Guohua hated iron and steel, Li Dongren was still very smart, otherwise he would not have entered the experimental class of No. 1 Middle School.
But this guy's heart is not on studying, he either surfs the Internet or fights all day long, and he doesn't come to school for self-study at night, and now he even skips classes during the day.
Li Dong looked innocent, and hurriedly smiled: "Teacher, I know that I am responsible this time." But I really didn't skip class, I went out in the morning to have diarrhea, and I didn't have time to ask for leave, so I came in the afternoon. ”
Seeing that Li Dong's face was indeed not very good, of course, after a day's car, it was naturally not much better.
Chen Guohua did not feel embarrassed anymore, but advised: "The college entrance examination is coming soon, don't eat indiscriminately during this time, and the most important thing is to take care of your body." ”
Seeing that Li Dong was still not leaving, Chen Guohua asked curiously: "What's the matter?"
"That, Mr. Chen, I want to take a few days off......"
"It's all at this juncture, are you still asking for leave, are you sick yet?" Chen Guohua's face was not very good-looking.
Li Dong shook his head and sneered: "It's a bit of a private matter, but don't worry, Teacher Chen, I will definitely not relax in my studies." It's only about this week, isn't it all about reviewing now, I review it all by myself at night, without delay. ”
Chen Guohua frowned, saying that, there must be a difference in the efficiency of reviewing alone and reviewing together at school.
But after all, I am about to graduate, and if I manage it too tightly, it will cause teenagers to rebel.
After thinking about it, he said: "If your business is not too urgent, it is best not to ask for leave, if you are in a hurry, then you will come to school for self-study in the evening, and if you don't understand anything, you can also ask the teacher." ”
Li Dong thought about it and agreed, he shouldn't be fine at night, and he can just ask those questions that he doesn't know.
Walking out of the office, Li Dong secretly said in his heart that Lao Chen was not bad, and thought that he would not agree.
Back in class, the afternoon class has already begun.
Li Dong didn't listen, and continued to rummage through various materials to see if he could find some more college entrance examination questions.
Not to mention, Li Dong found several questions of the same type in the afternoon, except for some changes in the data, the questions are almost the same.
The money was earned, and the college entrance examination questions were found, and Li Dong seemed to be in a very good mood.
Li Dong, who doesn't understand a few questions, is not worried, there are a lot of people in the class, and the teacher is also there, just ask more to understand.
However, you still have to be careful, it is best to add some other questions, otherwise after the college entrance examination, others will find out that they are asking all the college entrance examination question types, and you will not be able to tell it at that time.
