Chapter 138 Danger has come quietly
"Dad, you can rest assured and recuperate. I will graduate soon and be assigned a job. I will be able to make money by then. With me at home, everything will be fine."
As soon as Father Yin and Mother Yin heard their eldest son's promise, they couldn't stop crying.
"Okay, boss, you have to take responsibility, but it will be hard for you in the future..."
The big stone in the hearts of the two old people, including the other children of the Yin family, finally fell to the ground.
At night, Yin Jigang lay in bed but couldn't fall asleep. He kept thinking about how to support his family.
His mother can still do farm work, and with the help of his second brother who dropped out of school early, he probably won’t have to worry too much about farm work.
But his father's medical expenses and the tuition fees for his younger brothers and sisters have to be paid out of his own pocket. The second brother is 18 years old this year and will soon find him a wife, which requires a lot of money.
Not only does the Yin family have no money now, but it is also in a huge deficit and owes a lot of debt.
If they want to change their family's financial situation in a short period of time so that they can work with peace of mind, the Yin family must make a lot of money.
Make a lot of money?......
Yin Jigang's eyes suddenly brightened. He thought of his best friend Chen Qi. His family was also very poor, but he made a lot of money selling eels and peaches during the previous summer vacation, and finally even bought a house.
Then why can't he imitate?
Yin Jigang was trying to recall what Chen Qi said, yes, it means starving the timid to death and starving the bold to death.
When he thought of this, Yin Jigang became excited and sat up from the bed. Everyone was from the countryside, and Changxin County also has local specialties, such as the "peach-shaped plum" that is in season in June and July.
Peach-shaped plums are plums that look like small peaches. They are sour and sweet when ripe. They cannot be sold in Changxin, but they can be sold in Yuezhong City?
Isn’t that what Chen Qi did back then?
The more Yin Jigang thought about it, the more excited he became. He ran to his parents early in the morning and told his plan.
Father Yin was quite knowledgeable in the village, so he immediately raised objections:
"Boss, let's not talk about whether you will lose money if you take the peach-shaped plums to Yuezhong for hundreds of miles. Let's just say that this transaction is a mistake. What if someone gets caught? You are a technical secondary school
"Sir, we can't do this."
Yin Jigang now has Chen Qi as a role model and is full of confidence:
"Dad, don't worry, my classmate took the peaches from my hometown and sold them in the city last year. Not only was he not caught, but he also made a lot of money. He can do it, and so can I."
Poor Yin Jigang didn't know at all. When Chen Qi told him, he hid his golden finger, otherwise the transaction would be so simple?
Mother Yin was a little doubtful: "Is it really okay? But boss, our family doesn't produce plums like this."
"Mom, our family doesn't produce plums, and the commune where my uncle's family lives does not produce them. Let's borrow some money as capital and go ask the locals in person to buy some peach-shaped plums. Then my second brother and I will carry them to Vietnam.
Go and hawk it yourself.
People in the city eat rare things, and the plums will definitely sell for a good price. Let’s make more trips and make small profits but quick sales. By then our family will have money. Not only can we pay off the foreign debt, but we can also pay for the tuition fees of our younger brothers and sisters.
It’s also settled.”
When Father Yin heard that his son's classmates in the health school were doing this, he suddenly gained confidence.
"Can this be done?"
"Mom, Dad, we can definitely make it happen. The sooner we act, the better. If the plums are off the market, we will miss this opportunity."
When Mother Yin heard that both her husband and the most knowledgeable eldest son said it was okay, she stood up hurriedly:
"Okay, then I will borrow some more money. When I make money, I will return it to them with interest. Boss, you come with me to borrow money. You are a technical secondary school student, so people will definitely trust you."<
/p>
Yin Jigang was upset when he heard that he was asked to borrow money, but for the happiness of his family, he also risked his life.
A few days later, the two Yin brothers each appeared at the Yuezhong Bus Terminal carrying more than 100 kilograms of peach luggage. When they got off the bus, they were stunned.
An intellectual nerd, a country boy from the countryside, doesn't know where to sell it? How much does it cost? This is really a scholar's rebellion, and it won't happen in three years.
Yin Jigang was also smart. If he couldn't do it himself, there was someone else who could, so he let his brother look at the fruit while he hurried to the hospital to seek help from Chen Qi.
Chen Qi was just about to get off work and was going to accompany his little girlfriend. When he saw Yin Jigang shrinking in appearance in the first department of surgery, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Jigang, what happened at home? We are all worried about you."
Yin Jigang smiled bitterly:
"My father fell down a mountain and broke his spine. He is now paralyzed from the lower body. Now the whole family is in financial difficulties. I am not thinking about getting some souvenirs to sell in the city. Can you help me? I, I can't
Will sell."
Chen Qi didn't care when he heard this: "Sure, no problem, I'm good at this. What local specialties did you bring here? How much is it?"
"Do you know about peach-shaped plums? They are plums that look like peaches. They are quite sweet. I picked up about 300 kilograms with my second brother."
Plums? 300 pounds?
Chen Qi thought about it for a while. This fruit is not easy to preserve. It is originally green, but will gradually turn dark red over time, and will become soft to the touch, making it difficult to sell.
"In this way, let's call Brother Nong, A Tao, and you two brothers. Let's divide into three teams and go to Dayun Food Market, Dalong Food Market, and Nanmen Food Market to sell them. We'll set the price at 50 cents a pound and move accordingly.
Hurry, otherwise if the plums go bad you will lose money to grandma’s house.”
Yin Jigang became anxious as soon as he heard that the plums were going bad. Now the cost is all borrowed. If they are broken, the family will really have no way to survive.
Everyone did as they were told, with more people and greater strength, 300 kilograms of plums were sold out in the evening of the same day, making a total of more than 100 yuan, which was a huge sum of money that the Yin brothers could not even imagine.
I am so happy that Yin Jigang has swept away the haze of many days.
But 100 yuan was not enough. They made a fortune on their first try, which made the two Yin brothers confident and ready to go back to their hometown to buy another batch of peach bags.
Do it a few more times, and once you earn a thousand yuan, not only will your family's debts be paid off, but your family's life will also be better.
But wishes are beautiful, but reality is hard. Chen Qi and the others appeared at the vegetable market selling fruit again, and it was just such a coincidence that they were discovered by their classmates.
When Jiang Aiguo saw Chen Qi shouting in the market from a distance, he sneered repeatedly and asked softly to his companions:
"Zhang Feng, isn't your uncle from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau? Please help me..."
