When Li Xuewu asked Wen San'er, it was considered a layman's talk.
Wen San'er looked like you don't know what's going on. He held a cigarette in his mouth and said, "You don't understand the rules here. The maximum difference in exchanging food stamps is 25 cents. Generally, the difference is 5 cents, such as food stamps."
, if you exceed 5 cents, no one will exchange it, but meat coupons are not the same, and oil is not the same. These are exchanged according to the maximum amount, because they are rare.”
Li Xuewu looked at the eloquent Wen San'er and felt that only when people make the best use of their talents can they play an important role.
If you ask Wen San'er to go to the factory to make parts, he can make two parts a year, and he still has to watch with a whip.
Ask him to do some evil things, and he may be impatient and still keep his hands on his hips.
"Okay, we'll talk about the pork later. I'm going to the Northeast on a business trip today. I'm going by train. I have a special mission. Part of the carriage is empty. You can't sleep. Find a way to get something that's not available in the Northeast.
I will bring back some things from the Northeast, so that our primitive accumulation will be there."
Wen Saner stood up immediately.
"Damn it! Xuewu! You are so awesome, you can even get a car leather."
Li Xuewu waved his hand and said seriously, "Time is a bit tight. The train can only wait for us until 10 o'clock in the evening. Think of any way to collect scarce supplies in such a short time."
Wen San'er pinched her fingers and counted on the kang.
Li Xuewu looked at this guy not like a second-rate dealer, but like a fortune teller.
After thinking for a while, Wen San'er then said, "It's freezing in the Northeast now, so why don't we have anything? Fruits, there is no shortage of anything over there now, but we are short of things from the Northeast, rice, flour, and wood."
Li Xuewu interrupted, "Are you here to tell me the name of the dish? Think about what to bring first."
Wen Saner said with certainty, "What we can get in a short time is the big white pear. We saw it when we went down to collect the eggs. We just picked this thing for a month, and the water content is
It hasn’t been lost yet, and it’s very cheap.”
But he immediately patted his thigh again and said, "But there is a problem. You need to pay attention to the transportation. If you bump into each other, you will be frozen overnight. You have to move as soon as possible when you get there, otherwise you will freeze."
Li Xuewu smoked another cigarette, thought for a while and asked, "How much money do you have in your hand now, how many bicycle tickets?"
Wen San'er took out the money pocket under the pillow, flipped through it and said, "There are 2 bicycle tickets. The money and other tickets add up to more than 1,400. The big one is the pig from last night. I sold it for about 450 yuan."
Li Xuewu nodded and said, "That pig counts as my investment money. Let's do business together. The brothers will settle the accounts. When I come back this time, we will sit down together to discuss the stock split. Now you take Lao Biao with you."
Son, Guodong, my second son, go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy two bicycles. You can buy them separately. Don’t buy the brands yet. First, go to the countryside to collect big white pears. Old Biaozi takes Guodong to a village and contacts the village chief.
He helps, ask the head of the village for a house, leave Guodong there and collect it, and you can go to the next village, so that the four of you can collect four villages."
"No problem. When we collect eggs, we only collect them in that village. Biaozi and I have relatives there. We have been in the village since we were children, and we are familiar with the village chief."
Wen San'er readily agreed, but then asked, "We are all going to collect it, who will transport it back and forth? It's too late to transport it without a car. Only your horse-drawn carriage can make it to tomorrow afternoon."
Li Xuewu waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about the transportation. I will arrange for people to transport it. Once you have collected it, wait for me at the head of the village. When I get there, you will evacuate. I will collect it myself. Five villages, one village." Even if there are 80 households, even if one household sells one basket, if 30 households want to sell, we can take enough.”
Wen San'er thought about it for a while, and then kicked a few people who were still snoring on the kang to wake up.
"Children, Your Majesty has told us to catch Tang Monk! Wake up quickly, don't sleep! Tang Monk will be gone if he sleeps again!"
After this disturbance, Shen Guodong and others were awakened by the torment.
Wen Saner explained the matter in a few words and took out 825 yuan.
Li Xuewu filled in another 550 yuan himself, and each of the five people received 275 yuan.
Wen Saner gave Lao Biaozi another bicycle ticket, 120 yuan, and asked him to buy a bicycle.
This made several people very happy. They had wanted to buy it for a long time, but Wen Saner said that it was of no use and they were not rich yet, so they kept trying not to buy it.
Now that they heard that they could buy bicycles, these boys became more energetic. They washed their faces, put on their coats and ran out.
The two groups entered the supply and marketing cooperative separately and soon met at the intersection.
Five people and three bikes formed a group to ride to Daxing. This bicycle group was a rare sight.
The five people came to Daxing chatting and laughing. When they arrived at the fork of the village where Wen San'er often came, Li Xuewu and Wen San'er decided which villages and agreed on the order. The five people and three cars each Separate and go to the set goal.
The villages here have been trampled by the traitorous troops of Wen San'er and Lao Biaozi. Whose family has something? Wen San'er and others are more familiar with it than the master's family.
Li Xuewu entered the mountain village and first visited the village chief's home.
At first, the village chief was not very happy, but then Li Xuewu handed 5 yuan to the village chief, and things turned around.
"Oh, young man, you don't know. How can we plan how many pears can be produced on this tree? Our capital is a pear-producing area. Where can we sell them? There are no conditions for transportation. Now the supply and marketing cooperative is not willing to have more pears. Collect it, the villagers have saved several large boxes and put them in the cellar as snacks."
Li Xuewu grasped the village chief's hand and said, "Comrade village chief, we fellow villagers understand the suffering.
, isn’t it? The factory wants to provide some benefits, but there are no channels, so I’m here. I can’t tell anyone about this.”
The village chief whispered, "Don't worry, don't worry, as long as the village is satisfied, we will keep it secret."
Then the village chief walked from house to house. After a while, people carrying big earthen baskets came one after another to settle down at the head of the village.
This poor person lives outside the entrance of the village, more than 100 meters away from the nearest house.
Li Xuewu deliberately chose this family not only to hide it, but also to gain the trust of the villagers.
Li Xuewu was sitting at the door of the outhouse, and he was charged 2 cents for a pound of large white pears, and 4 yuan and 50 cents for a basket of 24 to 5 pounds of large white pears. These large white pears are a specialty of Daxing, and every house has a tree, and they are there every year.
Eat it in your cellar all winter long.
(There is no need to question the price of this book. The author has a daily account book of a local middle-class family in Beijing in the 1960s and 1970s)
Today is a big deal. Which store doesn’t have three baskets and five baskets? One basket costs 4 yuan and 50 cents!
Life in rural areas is tight, and 4 yuan and 50 cents is not a small amount.
It's not worth picking it up yourself and selling it in the city, and secondly, you wouldn't dare.
Because they have just been picked for more than a month and are well stored in the cellar, the big white pears are delicious and juicy.
Li Xuewu brought 275 yuan. In addition to the 5 yuan he had already given to the village chief, the remaining 270 yuan was collected from Dabaili.
Li Xuewu collected a basket and pretended to put it into the house. In fact, he put it into the space until Heitian was received. When he finished collecting, Li Xuewu did not leave. He told the village chief that a car would come at night and asked the villagers not to come out and bump into him.
.
The village chief took 5 yuan and of course promised, "No one came out. They were all squinting when they saw the pears coming. I can definitely speak well in this village, but young man, will you come again in the future?"
Li Xuewu said affirmatively, "Come here, leave any special local products to me. I didn't bring enough money today. I'll bring more next time."
