With Li Weidong's reminder, the leak never happened again.

This made those foreign devils with evil intentions very confused.

Originally, there was no need to use any formulas, just some key techniques.

How come these Chinese people have become smarter just after having lunch?

The foreign devils were puzzled and could only do business honestly.

....

After Li Weidong followed Lao Bi around for a while, he discovered another problem.

People in this era are really not confident about the products we produce.

Many sales comrades are afraid that the product will not be sold when negotiating.

I would rather suffer a small loss myself than sell the product.

Little do they know that the foreign devils are actually very keen on these products, and they deliberately suppress the prices just to make more profits.

Even if Li Weidong knew about this situation and told Lao Bi, there would be nothing he could do.

Because in this trading conference, there are many times when we are competing with our own people.

Some brother factories don't mind taking small losses in order to achieve results.

Do you want to say they don't understand?

In fact, they understand better than anyone else that as long as they can earn back foreign exchange, that is the greatest achievement.

Moreover, the self-confidence that once stood on top of the world has not yet been completely restored due to the war before liberation.

It was not until the era when Li Weidong lived that national self-confidence gradually recovered.

It can be said that many people born before the 1990s believe that foreign moons are rounder.

Seeing the excitement at the Canton Fair, Li Weidong was actually a little jealous.

He knew that there were several products that were very simple and could be manufactured, which were exactly what the foreign devils needed.

It's just that private transactions are not allowed now.

Moreover, factory production tasks are also scheduled above.

Without the above approval, who dares to "process" for you?

We can only hold back and wait until the environment changes in a few years before considering these things again.

The Canton Fair lasted for five days.

During this period, Li Weidong has been staying with Lao Bi, helping him deal with various things.

Seeing that it was about to end, Lao Bi gave Li Weidong a holiday with a wave of his hand.

Li Weidong finally had time to do his own thing.

The first place he went to was the supply and marketing cooperative.

The result was a disappointing discovery.

In fact, the product prices of supply and marketing cooperatives are not much different from those in Beijing.

Li Weidong could only choose to give up and move his target elsewhere.

It is said that as bold as a person is, the land will be more productive.

It’s hard to come here, but you can’t leave empty-handed.

Originally Li Weidong wanted to go to Zhongying Street.

But after asking around, I found out that Zhongying Street was still a restricted area these days.

If you want to wait for it to open, you have to wait for ten or twenty years.

There was no other way, so Li Weidong had no choice but to turn to the black market.

The dazzling array of products on the black market made him reluctant to take his eyes away from them.

Small commodities such as sunglasses were already available at this time, and the prices were not expensive.

People in Yangcheng are smart.

Moreover, if you are brave enough, there are many illegal processing factories in the villages on the outskirts of the city.

As for exchanging chicken feathers for sugar, that is a routine operation.

Li Weidong quickly learned Cantonese with the help of thousands of times of experience.

Language is the bridge of communication.

Li Weidong, who speaks Cantonese, quickly transformed into a local.

After buying sunglasses from a stall, Li Weidong was regarded as a big customer.

Then Li Weidong tried it out, this vendor with a shoehorn face and nicknamed the Cuttlefish Sect.

When he learned that his goods were all smuggled in from Hong Kong Island, a flash of realization flashed through his mind.

He doesn't have a pass now and can't go to the port city, but these people have connections.

Then Li Weidong tried to ask the Cuttlefish Sect again to see if he could get something else.

Unexpectedly, Cuttlefish Sect agreed wholeheartedly.

Good guy, this is a big fish!

However, this was the first time for the two to collaborate, so Li Weidong naturally did not dare to put all his hopes on the other.

I just tentatively asked for a hundred pairs of sunglasses.

If the other party can complete it, we can talk about other things later.

Now that the supply of goods is secured, all that remains is the transportation channels.

Li Weidong planned to hand over the transportation to Cai Xiaoguang, after all, he was familiar with the people on the railway side.

Whether it is from Beijing to Jichun or from Beijing to Yangcheng, it is actually a system.

Mr. Vanke made his first pot of gold by opening up transportation channels and earning money by dumping corn.

Li Weidong is now almost twenty years ahead of him.

There are people doing this all the time.

It's just a small fight and I don't dare to make a big deal.

It wasn't until the day before leaving Yangcheng that the Cuttlefish Sect finally delivered the hundred sunglasses Li Weidong asked for.

Li Weidong checked it and found that the workmanship was almost the same as what he had seen before.

Then he ordered another thousand pairs of sunglasses from Cuttlefish Sect, plus some other products.

As for the method of settlement, Li Weidong decided to barter.

Use the specialties from the three eastern provinces obtained from Cai Xiaoguang to exchange for the things in the Cuttlefish Sect's hands.

There is no other way. It would be too dangerous to trade directly with money.

And even if it's bartering, Li Weidong can still make another profit from it.

The environment on Hong Kong Island is also very chaotic at this time, and it is destined not to have too many resources.

The Cuttlefish Sect can make a lot of money by selling the things Li Weidong got in exchange for it in the port city, and it won't be a loss no matter what.

Before leaving, Lao Bi looked at the extra package in Li Weidong's hand, glanced at it, and stopped paying attention.

Because not only did Li Weidong have more packages in his hands, but Lao Bi, Lao Chen and Lao Diao also had several more boxes in their hands.

Some were given by comrades here, and some were purchased by themselves.

After finally going on a long trip, naturally I can’t come back empty-handed.

....

There was no words all the way. When Li Weidong and his party rushed back to the capital, Director Yang, Lao Chen and Lao Diao personally ran to the station to greet them, obviously taking this matter very seriously.

The group returned to the steel rolling mill, and Director Yang even organized a tea party.

Naturally, Li Weidong didn't want to accompany the leaders to discuss 'big things' here.

Some things, the more you know, the greater the trouble.

He left the station directly with his luggage, took the bus back to the alley entrance, and walked for another twenty minutes before Li Weidong returned to the courtyard.

When I entered the home, I felt relaxed.

Although he had only been away for a week, it felt like a long time had passed.

Sure enough, it’s better to have your own home!

After hiding the package containing the sunglasses, Li Weidong took his clothes and a thermos bottle and prepared to take a shower.

Unexpectedly, I just walked out of the house and saw a familiar figure.
