Chapter 20: At the Feet of the Son of Heaven

Liangkun left Yiwu with Lin Yaodong, Lin Yaozu, Lin Yaohua, Chen Jianghe, and Luo Yuzhu.

As for the two traffickers, Liangkun asked the three brothers Lin Yaodong, Lin Yaozu, and Lin Yaohua to tie up their hands and feet firmly, gag their mouths, and put them in the shack set up by Luo Yuzhu, and said: "You abducted and sold Luo Yuzhu, and now I put you here, this is called 'one drink and one peck, its own providence, its own cause and effect'." If there is a flash flood and the river rises and you are drowned, this is also providence; If no one finds you for a long time, and you starve to death, this is also providential; If the militia and the public security find out and arrest you and shoot you, it will be providential. In fact, with what you have done, how miserable you have died, you should have died. So, don't blame me, and don't blame anyone, this is what you deserve. ”

After speaking, Liangkun grabbed a red brick, wrote the word "human trafficker" on the wall of the bridge cave, and drew an arrow pointing to the two people.

Throwing away the bricks, Liangkun clapped his hands and beckoned Lin Yaodong, Lin Yaozu, Lin Yaohua, Chen Jianghe, and Luo Yuzhu to walk to the train station together.

Lin Yaodong asked, "Where are we going next?" ”

Liangkun said: "Of course it's going to Beijing, at the feet of the Son of Heaven!" ”

……

Sitting on the train, there are snowflakes flying outside the window.

With everyone and everything in my mind, I went on the road with the train.

The past, the old people, all follow Chen Jianghe's brain, paved with wandering tracks.

Chen Jianghe wrapped his coat tightly, and while carefully avoiding the train conductor's inspection, he asked the people in the seat one by one: "Do you want tea eggs?" Do you want sugar? Yiwu brown sugar boiled! ”

Chen Jianghe's bold move attracted the attention of the person next to him who looked like a student with black-rimmed glasses, and he saw Chen Jianghe wearing a blanket around his neck, with an egg on the left and brown sugar on the right, and he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and asked, "Little brother, how do you sell sugar?" ”

Chen Jianghe hurriedly stepped forward: "Five cents a piece, you can exchange things for it." ”

The student looked at him with a smile, took out five cents, a pen, and a piece of cake from his pocket and placed them in the palm of his hand, looking up and waiting for him to choose.

Chen Jianghe was stunned, laughed, took out a piece of candy and put it in the palm of the student's hand, and took the pen away.

"You're from Yiwu?" The student looked at it as he put the sugar in his mouth.

Chen Jianghe was just about to speak, when the conductor came from another carriage, he was in a hurry to escape, but was held down by the student, threw his clothes at him, and made another look.

Chen Jianghe understood, and pretended to sleep with clothes covering the blanket on his chest.

The conductor glanced at them and walked over, moving away.

Chen Jianghe slowly opened his eyes.

The student smiled and stretched out his hand: "My name is Qiu Yingjie, and I am also from Yiwu." ”

"Thank you." Chen Jianghe looked at him in a daze, and slowly stretched out his hands to shake them together.

Qiu Yingjie said: "Few of us in Yiwu have done this, aren't you afraid of being arrested?" ”

"Do you know what my name is? Feather. There's nothing cheaper in the world, I'm afraid of anything. Chen Jianghe snorted nonchalantly, got up and left.

Qiu Yingjie grabbed his arm: "You boiled the sugar yourself?" ”

Chen Jianghe nodded, but his eyes kept looking at the other carriages.

Qiu Yingjie asked again: "What about the eggs?" ”

Chen Jianghe said in a low voice: "I exchanged chicken feathers for sugar from the countryside, cooked them and sold them in the car to make a difference." ”

Qiu Yingjie said with appreciation: "You know economics quite well, and then you can boil sugar with the money you earn, so that it will accumulate slowly, but how to solve the cost of tickets?" ”

Chen Jianghe smiled bitterly: "Fellow, don't ask again, I can't help it, I can't be caught by them...... What the hell do you do? ”

Chen Jianghe took out an egg and stuffed it into his hand, and hurriedly squeezed to the next carriage.

The train stopped temporarily, Qiu Yingjie stood on the platform to breathe in the fresh air, and saw his fellow countryman Chen Jianghe jumping from the far carriage: "Hey, fellow! Sold out? I just wondered, you won't go to Beijing with this car, right? I didn't expect you to be at home all over the world, and you can get off at any time. ”

Chen Jianghe smiled embarrassedly and said, "What kind of car do I get off?" I'm also out for some fresh air. Are you also going to Beijing? ”

Qiu Yingjie said: "I went to university in Beijing, and I was lucky to catch up with the resumption of the college entrance examination the year before last. ”

Chen Jianghe showed envy: "College student, amazing!" ”

Qiu Yingjie laughed heartily: "It's amazing that you are chicken feathers!" Learn and apply economics to get on and off the bus. What's your name? ”

Chen Jianghe was stunned: "My name is ...... Chen Jianghe, what kind of economics did you just say? ”

Qiu Yingjie asked Chen Jianghe with a smile: "Then you answer me first, why don't you want money, but exchange one of my pens." ”

Chen Jianghe said: "Because this money is scarce in the countryside, I can exchange it for more things." Moreover, my uncle and Mr. Ni asked me to learn with a pen. ”

Qiu Yingjie nodded approvingly and said, "This is economics." Bartering is a very troublesome thing, requiring an exchange ratio between every two goods, and Marx talked about this problem......"

Chen Jianghe was still ignorant, his eyes flashed with curiosity, and the ******** whistle of the inquisitive one, and the two turned their heads at the same time to see that the attendant had already gotten into the car.

Qiu Yingjie smiled: "Fellow, let's get in the car, I'll tell you more about it!" ”

Chen Jianghe said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Ni is waiting for me at the sleeper. ”

Seeing Chen Jianghe hurriedly running in the direction of the sleeper car, Qiu Yingjie smiled thoughtfully, and said to himself: "Sitting in the sleeper, don't forget to change things, it's really ......"

Qiu Yingjie hurriedly waved his hand and watched Chen Jianghe enter the sleeper car.

Gradually, the train began to move, and as soon as Qiu Yingjie sat down, Chen Jianghe's figure appeared at the mouth of the carriage again.

Looking at Qiu Yingjie in great surprise, Chen Jianghe smiled embarrassedly and sat opposite.

Qiu Yingjie asked, "Aren't your things sold out, why don't you lie in the sleeper?" The sleeper is much more comfortable! ”

Chen Jianghe said: "Although the sleeper is comfortable, I am more interested in what you are talking about. You go on to say, what is the exchange ratio? ”

Qiu Yingjie said: "When people take out chicken feathers and choose the items they want to exchange, you have to quickly calculate whether they are worth it in your mind. For example, if there is an old lady who likes a bun, what should I do? The chicken feathers she took out to sell were in condition and worth, and she had to price them immediately, which was the key to exchanging chicken feathers for sugar. ”

Chen Jianghe laughed embarrassedly and said, "Yes! Right! Right! When I went out with the older generation, they asked me to evaluate whether the goods were worth it, and Uncle Jin Shui said that I was the most accurate. ”

Qiu Yingjie said with a picture: "This shows that you have a very high talent for business. When our ancestors exchanged chicken feathers for sugar, according to the preferences of customers and the items they provided, we would adjust the relative prices of various small commodities for all kinds of chicken feathers and labor services at any time, and we must be accurate to the centimeter! The Knock Sugar Gang has traveled all over the world, and has a great understanding of the products of various places, and can grasp all the price differences with intuition and keenness, and you and I Yiwu people have already had this kind of genetic gene in their blood! ”

Chen Jianghe listened attentively with his mouth half-open......

In Chen Jianghe's eyes, the train is cute and hateful, it makes people happy and tears; It carries people and things, and it is often loaded with dreams, and the only thing that cannot be carried is parting.

In the blink of an eye, Beijing Station arrived, and in the bustling crowd, Chen Jianghe helped Qiu Yingjie carry his luggage to the platform.

The radio also sounded: "Welcome to Beijing, the capital." ”

Qiu Yingjie sighed: "I really didn't expect you to go all the way, don't sit in the sleeper, and accompany me to Beijing in a hard seat, if I tell others about this in the future, who will believe it." Brother Jianghe, since you have arrived in Beijing, it is better for me to take you around Beijing. ”

"No, Brother Yingjie, I learned all the way from you. Someone else is waiting for me! After speaking, Chen Jianghe took a deep breath, turned his head and glanced at the station confidently with a strange gaze.

"There will be such a day, when I go back to Yiwu, I will definitely go to you." Qiu Yingjie turned around and walked a few steps, remembered something, and turned his head: "Brother Jianghe, I don't know whether to say it or not." You said that you have begged for food, lived in a bridge cave, at your age, with such a life experience, what else can't you let go, you should rely on your ability to survive and turn around, what does the sugar gang earn? Is it just money? Our ancestors have been as far as Hebei and Liaoning, and you should have the idea of surpassing them. ”

Chen Jianghe froze, thoughtful: "Where else can I go?" ”

Qiu Yingjie smiled mysteriously: "The world is big, brother!" Outside of Yiwu, there is China; Outside of China, there is the world! What is the railway line, only with the strong winds of the Pacific Ocean and Siberia can you chicken feathers fly into the sky. Remember my words, brother, remember to write to me at this address, and in three years, we will see you in Yiwu. ”

Qiu Yingjie waved his hand and walked away without looking back.

Chen Jianghe was completely shocked, and looked at Qiu Yingjie's back motionlessly: this person's vision is broad, his conversation is extraordinary, and his demeanor is chicβ€”it's amazing!

Luo Yuzhu patted Chen Jianghe's shoulder from behind and said loudly, "What are you looking at?" ”

Liangkun said with a smile: "I'm just asking you to show them what is called Jianghu business, what is the real 'Laohe', you won't waste a sleeper ticket in vain, right?" ”

Luo Yuzhu said: "It's a waste of the sugar I helped you boil!" ”

Chen Jianghe said: "The fellow villager I met on the train is really capable and understands a lot of truths. ”

Liangkun asked, "Who is he?" ”

Chen Jianghe said: "His name is Qiu Yingjie and he is a college student. ”

Liangkun said: "The first batch of college entrance examination college students ten years later have a bright future! ”

Chen Jianghe said: "I was just a little surprised that he had such foresight and knowledge that he would even want to return to Yiwu in that poor and remote country." ”

Liangkun said: "The golden nest, the silver nest, is not as good as your own kennel." It's like you, you still have 'arson' and 'fugitives' on your back, don't you want to go back to Yiwu? ”

Chen Jianghe said confusedly: "However, he also told me that I want to go out." ”

Liang Kun said: "After he finished college and returned to Yiwu, he was a great intellectual, which is called 'returning home'." It's a shame for you to go to college, but if you can mix into a rich party, it can be regarded as a 'return to your hometown'. The ancients said that wealth and nobility do not return to their hometowns, just like brocade clothes walking at night! This is a glorious thing, and this is also the Chinese's identification with 'home'! ”

Lin Yaohua said: "Is this the reason why Ah Kun still wants to go back to Tazhai to set up a factory? ”

……

Liangkun took Lin Yaodong, Lin Yaozu, Lin Yaohua, Luo Yuzhu, and Chen Jianghe to rent a whole xiaoyuanzi in Beijing and play solidly for several days, and various attractions left their photos.

The three brothers, Lin Yaodong, Lin Yaozu, and Lin Yaohua, felt very novel and eye-opening.

Chen Jianghe was happy, but he felt very uneasy, quietly found Liangkun, and asked, "Mr. Ni, you invited us, can't it be just to take us on a tour of the mountains and rivers?" ”

Liangkun said: "Of course not, touring the mountains and rivers is also an experience. Xu Xiake, a traveler in the Ming Dynasty, said that the return of the five mountains does not look at the mountains. I just hope that you will broaden your horizons, realize that the world is prosperous, and you are not afraid of life and people, because the next business I want you to do requires you to be able to keep a cool head in front of the public. You've been knocking candy gangs on the streets since you were a child, I'm not worried, I'm worried about my brothers. ”

Chen Jianghe asked, "Do you want them to go to the Sugar Gang too?" ”

Liangkun said: "Similar, but not quite. In fact, this is the best time to do business, and you can make money doing anything - because the risk is big enough to dissuade most people, and the profit is high enough that it's easy to get carried away. ”

Chen Jianghe said: "Playing around in Beijing these days, I found that the people here are really rich, much richer than the people in Yiwu. It's a lot easier to do business here. ”

Liangkun said: "Just kidding, here is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and there are more consumers!" ”

Chen Jianghe said: "But the management here is much stricter, and there are more people in the sub-district office than the militia in Yiwu." ”

Liangkun said: "It's still the same sentence, this is the foot of the Son of Heaven, the first good place." ”

Chen Jianghe asked, "Then what business do we do?" ”

Liang Kun said: "After you have cooked Beijing, you will go to the production team in the nearby countryside to exchange all kinds of grain, chickens, ducks, and geese from the members, and take them to the city in the morning to exchange money and various tickets." In the afternoon, I wandered around the entrance of the state-run cultural relics store, and whenever I saw someone who wanted to go to the store to sell antiques, I would pull them into the alley to the side and buy them at a 'high price'. Then, as he continued to walk around the store, he saw rich people and overseas Chinese who were carrying bags and sneaking around, so he went up to talk to them, and sold the antiques he bought at a high price and the difference in price. ”

Chen Jianghe said: "It's okay to say that you can exchange grain or something, but I can't understand these antiques, so it's not easy to value them." If the price is high, or if you buy a fake, won't you lose money? ”

Liangkun smiled: "If you lose it, you will lose it!" Do you really think I want you to make any money in Beijing? The main thing is to let you put down roots in Beijing and find and establish channels for future bulk trades. Besides, I only give you start-up capital, and if you make money, it's yours; If you lose money, you lose your money, so you have to take care of it. Only those businesses that I buy and sell through you in Beijing, I will share the money with you. Of course, if I need something, you can help you buy it, and I will also give you labor fees according to the purchase amount. Do you think it will work? ”

Chen Jianghe said: "Okay! ”
