Chapter 608 Investigation Team (18)
When it comes to 1998, most people recall the devastating floods. That's right, that year was a rare catastrophic flood in the entire basin of the Yangtze River, Nenjiang River and Songhua River in China's modern history.
As a resident of the affected area at that time, how could Kou Xi forget the flood, not to mention that Huo An also participated in this flood fight back then, and resisted the flood with his body. At that time, the people in Kouxi's hometown were lucky, and the troops transferred the people away in advance. Although the floods submerged the houses, in the end, the state paid for the people to rebuild a number of houses. At that time, many families were still living in small mud houses with broken bricks, and they collapsed in an instant when the flood came. Without the flood, many families would not have been able to live in sunny sunrooms. In many villages, rows of identical houses were built by the state at that time. Kou Xi still remembers that there was a place called Big Elm that was the hardest hit area, and she later went there to attend a relative's wedding. The roofs over there are all blue, and every house is like a clone, and it is impossible to tell whose house is whom.
But for another thing, Kou Xi remembered it more clearly. That was the year when the state banned the reporting of news about pyramid schemes. The reason why it is forbidden is because this matter began to be introduced to our country in the 80s, and in the mid-90s, to be precise, it became extremely rampant in 1995. At this time, it was just in time for the wave of layoffs in the 90s, and many laid-off workers volunteered to join the industry.
The reason for Kou Xi's deep memory is that the daughter-in-law of one of Huo An's comrades-in-arms abandoned her family and ran to Huizhou, Guangdong Province to make money. The family went over and over again to look for her, but not only did they not bring her back, but a few people followed and participated.
At that time, Kou Xi and Huo An had been married for ten years and had no children, Kou Xi himself was very annoyed, and even hated that he had gone to accompany him to the army, but he was too busy to return home. She usually doesn't have any friends, and she happens to have a good relationship with the daughter-in-law of that comrade-in-arms. She remembered that the daughter-in-law left in the first half of '97, and she followed her back to her hometown. After the flood was repelled in 98, everything was on track, and Kou Xi returned to the army to find Huo An for a divorce.
Only then did I hear those people in the army compound talking about the daughter-in-law who ran to Guangdong and did not come back, leaving her family and business to pursue her dream of becoming a multimillionaire. The man wants a divorce, but she refuses to come back to go through the formalities.
For this reason, the army also specially launched a special campaign for this group of military wives to popularize pyramid schemes and crack down on economic crimes. Kou Xi went to every class and listened to the scam inside.
So after that, even if it was difficult and hard, even if she went to work as a dishwasher or a nanny, she refused to do any direct sales or other work. Because she really can't tell what is called direct selling and what is called pyramid sales, in her eyes, only by working hard to make money can she be practical.
Therefore, when Li Nan said that he would develop heads, Kou Xi instantly understood. This guy clearly came out of that place, and he's the kind of smart guy who doesn't go crazy with a mirror in his heart. Learn the methods of other people's deception, and do exactly the same thing from scratch by yourself.
Kou Xi raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Nan, and his smile became sweeter and sweeter: "If I want to invest in stocks, how long will it take to earn back the principal?"
Seeing that Kou Xi looked very interested, Li Nan took out a pen and a piece of paper from his arms and began to settle accounts for Kou Xi. claimed that if Kou Xi invested 60,000 yuan, he would be able to return to his capital in half a year, and make money by compound interest. By the time Kou Xi was sixty years old, he would be able to earn almost 10 million.
Huo Xinyu sat next to Li Nan dumbfounded, and his mouth was so big that he could swallow an egg. She couldn't help but pat Li Nan on the shoulder, a little suspicious: "What you said is true or false?"
Li Nan saw Huo Xinyu immediately demolish the stage for himself, and he couldn't hold back his face when he was displeased: "You don't believe me?"
"It's not that I don't believe you, it's because you haven't told me this before. I'm not ....." Huo Xinyu said more and more in his voice, and he didn't have much confidence. It can be seen that Huo Xinyu is a woman who becomes an idiot when she enters the love stage.
"Xinyu means that 60,000 yuan is too much, if there is a cheaper one, maybe she can do it!" Kou Xi smiled with an understanding expression.
"Huh?" Li Nan never seemed to think in this direction, after all, he put a long line to catch big fish. As soon as I heard Huo Xinyu say that his family was doing big business, he had this idea.
"There are also 3,000 yuan, this is also simple!" Li Nan told Huo Xinyu about the plan of how to develop multiple downlines for 3,000 yuan, and then eventually become a multimillionaire.
"It's actually very simple, the more people you have, the more money you make. Li Nan knew that it was useless for him to say more: "If you are really interested one day, go to my company to listen to the lecture." We have a special lecturer to tutor you, and only after passing the assessment can you have a qualification to enter the industry. ”
Li Nan packaged himself very tall, but Kou Xi didn't bother to look at this person selling around. It's not good to expose it in person, so I thought of an idea. She looked at Li Nan and said, "Since you really like Xinyu, you also have a plan for her future." It's better for you to help her, help her pay the money and then develop the downline. The money you make in this way is also for the two of you, which makes a lot more sense than giving a bride price. ”
Li Nan was stunned, and Huo Xinyu was also stunned. Kou Xi smiled: "What, is this difficult? The initial investment was only 3,000 yuan, if it is a bride price, our family's condition is less than 10,000 yuan." ”
"10,000 yuan dowry?" Li Nan gritted his teeth: "Why are there so many?"
"No......" Huo Xinyu immediately explained, she wanted to tell Li Nan that she could not have a penny at home. As long as two people truly love each other, none of this matters.
"Although you may have seen not many bride prices in our hometown before, our family conditions will give a generous dowry. Not only my father-in-law, but also myself will give Xinyu a lot of money. Kou Xi looked at Xinyu with a smile: "Xinyu, have you forgotten, before I left home, I gave the house of the old mansion to the eldest sister." And your father has also built a house for your second sister over the years, our family is not a patriarchal family. But whenever a daughter gets married, a bungalow is the most basic. ”
What's more, Xinyu has gone to college and is the oldest. Kou Xi's face was lazy: "How much is the bride price of 10,000 yuan? A house isn't a big deal for you anyway. The people under your hands are all people who earn thousands of dollars a month, and you, the boss, must be richer. So in the past few days, you can take out the 3,000 yuan invested by Xinyu, and it will return to the capital in half a year anyway. According to what you said, after half a year, 3,000 yuan becomes 12,000 yuan. When the time comes, this 12,000 is the bride price, and it is quite cost-effective for you to save 9,000 yuan. In the past six months, you hurry up to buy a house and decorate, and at the end of the year, you will go back to your hometown in Northeast China with us to meet your parents. Wouldn't it be better to get a marriage certificate by the way? ”
Li Nan was a little panicked, and stammered: "We, we have just started dating, and we have not yet reached the point of talking about marriage." Now you want me to give 3,000 dollars? This, this is a bit of a strong man's difficulty. ”
"Haven't you been dating for half a month, and besides, why do you want to come to the house if you don't mean to get married? I don't think it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, and today we will find a big restaurant for a meal. I'll call my friends here, and you call your friends too, and it's going to be an engagement today. Kou Xi looked at Kou Dewang: "Dad, you go and get my phone book and call Gu Shen and them." ”
