Chapter 24 Closing the Net
Mr. Xie couldn't hide a smile on his face.
It's really a good shade with his back against the big tree, this Miss Ye really has a way, and a piece of news will make him earn a lot of money.
"Let's stop it, we can earn enough to support our old age."
Ling Er persuaded: "Sister Ye said, if you don't grasp the way to get out of the way, maybe the boat will capsize when you go, it's better to take advantage of the luck now, let's ......."
"What's it, why are you saying such frustrating words, let's take advantage of the victory to pursue." Mr. Xie is very proud, he has earned so much money now, he must show off in front of the old lady in the future, and tell her to take a good look, he is not without success, as long as there is news, this kind of small and broad play is much happier than the Xie family's hard work in the past hundred years.
"Do you want to vote? Miss Ye didn't mean ......"
"What did Miss Ye say? She's just scaring me, the thread she can catch is amazing, what we're picking up now is just the little thing between people's fingers, how can it be so easy to capsize. ”
"However, I always think that if I make enough money, you ......"
"Silly girl, when there is enough money to make, even if we have no children and no daughters, we have to plan for the future, it is impossible to count on the old lady, we can only figure out our own way."
"Why can't it be, didn't you say that the old lady will soon be seventy?"
After Ling Er finished speaking, she hurriedly covered her mouth: "I'm not cursing her old man, it's really a person in her seventies, and she is also very old, and the family business will be ours after a while, why do you have to do that fearful business." ”
"You don't know, seeing the old lady like that is going to become a sperm, I'm afraid that she won't die if she boils me to death, that spirit, I'm worried about filling in a younger brother for me one day."
"God, no, where can this little seventy be spiritual?"
Ling Er felt that Mr. Xie must be making excuses for his desperate bets, until she ran to Xie's house to visit the old lady once, and when she came back, she couldn't help but lament: "God, it's really old, why are you so young!" ”
It's just over a month, and this old lady Xie looks younger than her son!
Most of the hair is black, there is no wrinkle on the face, the whole face is white and clean, and there are a few freckles next to the nose, which makes it more and more playful, where is it still the old dragon clock before!
"Don't say that Mr. can't stay up, neither she nor I can afford it."
Ling Er sighed with emotion: "Why did it become like this, I met the immortals?" ”
"The gods may not have encountered it, maybe it's the credit of that little ghost." Mr. Xie thought of the missing Ma Xiaobao, and he spent money to find someone to look around, but there was no trace, and then his mother became like this, could it be that her old man really ate the child alive, and the thin skin and tender flesh eaten by human flesh were rejuvenated.
Thinking about these things, it is a big rebellion, Mr. Xie couldn't help but scold: You are an old man who doesn't cultivate, and you have become like this and torture your only son, who has been stingy for a lifetime, and will not let go when he is old.
Mr. Xie's hatred for the old lady is a little deeper, but he is next to the human world, that is his own mother, what can he do if he hates it in his heart?
In this way, Mr. Xie did not listen to Ye Quan's advice, and bet all his net worth on the cotton business, Ye Yuan got the news that this year's cotton production in South America is out of production, and the country is also out of harvest, hoarding Juqi, hoarding hundreds of thousands of yuan of cotton, when the time comes, it can be increased by 20 times when it is thrown into the market, maybe more!
Mr. Xie was carried away by the money, mortgaged his two ships and his own property, and scraped together enough to hoard cotton for one million.
In another month, this money will be ten times and twenty times higher!
The more he thought about it, the happier he became, and told Ling Er that he would stop when he was done this time, and completely stop it.
"Making a few million is really enough for the rest of our lives, and I can let the old lady see my methods."
Ling Er put her arms around his neck: "We will definitely make a fortune." ”
Not long after Mr. Xie pressed all his net worth into it, one day he met Lao Li, who was in the boat running business together, and called him from afar, asking him if his boat wanted to go inland to earn some extra money.
"My ship has been staked to people, I can't help it." Now Mr. Xie Xiao is thinking about the big money in a month, where will he see the little extra money in the inland in tears, not to mention, he can't move the boat now.
"That's a pity, this time there are dozens of ships of cotton in South America, and our Shanghai market is saturated, and all merchants are going inland to transport it inland."
Lao Li was very sorry.
"What do you say? Cotton from South America? Or dozens of ships? ”
Mr. Xie was stunned, he wanted Mr. Li to tell him that he had heard it wrong, but he saw Mr. Li nodding: "Yes, haha, the price of this cotton has dropped all of a sudden, and it is scarce." But it has nothing to do with our boats, we just have to ship it to the mainland, and we can earn it if we have freight, but I'm afraid that those who hoard cotton will have to be worthy of pants. As he spoke, he raised the newspaper in his hand, "Look, the price of cotton in the market today can't be lower." ”
Mr. Xie grabbed the newspaper and looked at it roughly, his face was extremely ugly, and he turned around and ran.
"Lao Xie, what's wrong with you?"
Mr. Li stopped him and asked.
"I'm just unlucky, I'm hoarding cotton." Mr. Xie smiled bitterly, Xu was dazzled by the sun, it was dark, and he staggered and fell.
When Mr. Xie woke up, he looked at Ling'er's swollen eyes crying, and there was a faint cry downstairs.
"Who is it?"
"The wife came and said, "You have mortgaged the house, and now the creditor is forcing you to vacate the house." The wife in Ling Er's mouth refers to his wife, Mrs. Xie.
Mr. Xie closed his eyes: "I thought it was a dream, but it turned out to be true." ”
"In business, it is inevitable that there will be times when I look away, I still have a bit of a private room, which is always enough for us to live, and I haven't eaten bran vegetables, it's nothing." Ling Er tried her best to comfort him.
Tears fell from the corners of Mr. Xie's eyes, and he shook his head weakly: "It's useless, I have thrown all my family property down, and the boat is about to become an adult, as well as savings and two houses." When all the cotton arrives, I'm completely finished. ”
"I can't sell it this year, and I'll wait for next year, not so many boats of cotton will arrive every year." Ling Er persuaded.
"Cotton, how long can it be stored, I don't listen to your persuasion, I'm useless, and you and I will suffer."
"I'll go to Miss Ye and ask her to find a way, she has a wide range, maybe the boat can stay."
"It's useless, this line of work is willing to gamble and lose, and you can get rich or go bankrupt."
"Find the old lady, as long as the old lady takes the money out and gets through this crisis. The boat is your lifeline, you have to keep it. Ling Er leaned on his chest, listening to his heartbeat, her heart was sour, "It's all my fault, it's good if I don't introduce Miss Ye to you." ”
Mr. Xie pushed Ling Er away, and got up from the bed with a bang: "Yes, I'll go find the old lady, she can't die without help." ”
