18. Chapter 18

Two years ago, Xiaohai followed his uncle to Suichang, Zhejiang, he didn't have much culture, nor did he have any skills, he was afraid of constraints and didn't want to enter the factory, in order to make money to support his family, he could only do the same business as everyone who went out - walking the streets and alleys to collect waste products, and make money by the price difference.

This is also the main means for people in northern Jiangsu to make a living in other places, although dirty, tired, but this livelihood is also good, that is, it does not need much capital, and does not need skills, hundreds of eighty to buy a second-hand tricycle, add a scale, and then there is a thousand eight hundred capital to open, how to earn a hundred and ten yuan a day, I heard that when it is good, it earns thousands a day.

At the beginning, Xiaohai didn't know how to do it, and he didn't know how to estimate the goods, he always made a little difference, and he worked hard day by day to earn much less money than others, but it was much better than farming at home.

The family has four acres of land, two crops of rice and wheat a year, and it is not enough to lose a few dollars if seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides are thrown away, and Xiaohai earns more than ten acres of land a year, which makes the family very happy.

In the second year, Xiao Haiwu went out of the door - the business of collecting waste products has a lot of mysteries.

Looking at walking the streets and alleys a car of wine bottles or a car of waste products is not worth a few dollars, in fact, there is really a lot of money behind it, and there are a lot of magic weapons to make money: the use of "public three scales" is their open secret, with this kind of scale to weigh goods, will be more scales into less, 100 pounds of things can be less than one or twenty pounds, or even more, of course, the use of this kind of scale absolutely requires a turn of mind and brain, who can use, what people can not use, it depends on your ability to see people, people, Most of them are coaxing simple-minded women or muddled old men and old women.

The second trick is to sprinkle water or fill in the goods, and when the old newspapers and rotten books are recovered, they have to be sprinkled with ten catties and eight catties, and those copper pipes and aluminum pipes, which are several pieces per catty, and they are filled with sand or mud, and they have to make a lot of money.

At the beginning, Xiaohai really didn't understand, watching others make money, and when he saw the doorway, it was too late, there were too many people doing this to make a living, the competition was fierce, an alley walked down, there would always be several, and they were all fellow villagers not far away, in order to get out of the predicament, Xiaohai, who was still active-minded, borrowed money to buy a four-wheeled truck, while helping everyone transport waste; In his spare time, he drove to the countryside far away to hand over scrap, and the business was not bad.

I heard my sister-in-law go home and say that Suichang, Zhejiang is really a good place, with beautiful mountains and rivers, simple folk customs, and you can earn dozens of dollars and hundreds of dollars a day by picking up waste products empty-handed

"People are really rich in that place, as long as they throw away the old things, I picked up the sofas and beds in our rental room, as well as those good clothes and shoes, ······" My mother-in-law once described it to me like this, which made my heart itch and I wanted to follow along.

Xiaohai, who bought a car, has always had a good business, and if he encounters a few big businesses a month, it will definitely be no problem to earn 108,000 yuan a year.

However, the situation in the second year took a sharp turn: with the recession of the national economy, the scrap market also suffered, and the price fell again and again.

Seeing that the business has not improved, Xiaohai quickly changed careers, and began to sell fruits and vegetables in small trucks, and found the way after a few times: every time his goods are of good quality and cheap, it is not a problem to sell hundreds of catties a day, and the difference between a catty and several yuan can make hundreds of dollars if the cost is thrown away.

"Xiaohai is very good at making money, he earns 5,000 a day" once chatted with Pan Xiaoyan, and she had a tone of admiration, which made me angry: Brainless things, blowing so much in front of women, it's not like selling yourself, women like Pan Xiaoyan don't treat you as a big name, and you can't get rid of it when the time comes.

That being said, men are like that, they always want to show their ability in front of women - they can make money, they can make a lot of money, only in this way can they win the favor and favor of women, and only then can women surrender to themselves and obediently obey.

Xiaohai's goal was achieved, and Pan Xiaoyan made him very useful.

Pan Xiaoyan revered Wang Xiaohai as a hero in her mind, dedicated herself to her, and gave him a child, and then enjoyed it with him for the rest of her life, even if she was a shameless junior.

·······

Because of Pan Xiaoyan's intervention, Xiaohai and Xiaoyi's good days, as well as everything we were happy and peaceful, have now come to an abrupt halt.

On the afternoon of the 19th day of the first lunar month, Xiao Hai pulled a cart of our local fresh strawberries and went to Zhejiang.

I arrived at Suichang early the next morning, and it was the market day, and seven or eight hundred pounds of strawberries were sold out in the morning.

The wholesale price of strawberries in my hometown is three yuan a catty, and it has become eight or nine yuan a catty when it is transferred to Suichang, throwing away all kinds of expenses, only this day and one night's hard work, I actually earned more than 2,000 yuan, and there are saved tolls - agricultural products are free on the highway, and every time I go back and forth to Xiaohai, I will always bring something, Xuzhou garlic or Zhejiang tangerine, and I can save hundreds of dollars along the way.

Wang Xiaohai lit the banknotes and sighed very emotionally: "Alas! If it weren't for my bastard making such a show, what a lucrative way to make a living! ”

Yes, what a good way to make money, he has worked hard for many years, and now for a woman, for a shameless junior, all the good prospects have been buried.

It was no one else who caused this situation, it was him Wang Xiaohai himself, it was he who destroyed all this with his own hands, watching years of hard work come to waste, Xiaohai should be very remorseful in his heart.

But what about regret, there is no regret medicine to sell in this world.

Three days later, Xiaohai and Xiaoyi came back by train.

They took the stalls, the buses, and everything in the rental house, and sold it at a low price, and packed everything that could be sent home.

With such a toss, the assets have shrunk greatly: when the two vegetable stalls first competed, one was 12,000, and now the two are only sold for 10,000; The passenger car was bought for 36,000 yuan, but now it has only been sold for 8,000 yuan in just two years, plus other miscellaneous items, they have brought back more than 20,000 yuan from Zhejiang.

The money is a big loss, but fortunately, I finally came back smoothly "Thank God, as long as people are there, money is something outside the body" I comforted my brother-in-law with kind words.

You must know that in the past few days when they left, my father and I have not slept a single restful sleep, always worried that something will happen, and often have nightmares in the middle of the night: it was not Xiaohai who ran away with Pan Xiaoyan; It was Xiaohai who was killed by that woman's husband······

"Xiaoyi, you can watch it carefully, if you can't make Xiaohai sell you and the child" I once joked to my brother-in-law,

"Where do you think about Xiao Hai, he is not this kind of person" It's all like this, Xiao Yi is still a man

But what to do when you go home: Wang Xiaohai has worked hard in Zhejiang for many years, why did he come back to do something? Part-time job, he is not free, he has no way to run a business for a while, and I heard that he is thinking about buying a roller in partnership with someone - this is a high-profit and high-risk Dongdong.

's father was worried that his family would be tossed by him, and Xiao Yin was also worried, but he didn't dare to obstruct it too much, lest something would happen·······

But my concern is different: if the relationship between them does not really improve, Wang Xiaohai will not be able to recognize his mistake correctly····· Now that I have sent away a Pan Xiaoyan, maybe there will be a Zhang Xiaoyan, Li Xiaoyan, or even more in the future, what should I do at that time!

How beautiful it would be if this was the end!

I silently looked forward to it in my heart.
