Chapter 53 Crazy Electronic Watch
"Brother, do you know what this is?" Lin Fanghua said dissatisfiedly, "This thing is called an electronic watch. It can run forever without winding. And it only costs 8 yuan. Think about it. Generally, a watch is the cheapest. It's more than 40 yuan."

"Ahem, did your classmates buy any?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

"Of course there is." Lin Fanghua said, "But only if the family's financial conditions are a little better, the family will agree to let them buy one. Because we are in high school now, and we are nervous about studying. Our teacher said that if conditions permit, You can prepare a watch so that you can keep track of the time during the exam."

"Where did you buy this watch?"

"It's at the gate of our school. Every day after school, there is a young man with a canvas bag who stands there and sells it. He is still sneaky for fear of being seen. Many people go to buy it. Now many people in Fenghua County buy this kind of bag. Cousin, brother, do you want to buy one too? I saw men’s ones, and they’re pretty.”

Lin Zhenhua felt like laughing: "Xiaofang, do you know how much this watch in your hand sells for in Guangzhou?"

"how much is it?"

"Twenty dollars."

"2 yuan!" Lin Fanghua almost ran away, "then I was fooled? Brother, if it is 2 yuan, why don't you buy a few yuan, one piece for you, one piece for me, one piece for Yang Xin, and one piece for Yang Tao ..."

Lin Zhenhua laughed and said, "Sister, do you think your brother is such a stupid person? To tell you the truth, I bought this kind of watch for 5000 yuan in Guangzhou and hired a brother to sell it in Fenghua County. The one you bought , I bought it wholesale."

"So, you mean, that guy who sells electronic watches is the one you hired?"

"That's right, he is Lan Wufeng. Didn't I tell you about this person?" Lin Zhenhua said.From time to time, he used to bring some things to Lan Wufeng's house, and he told Lin Fanghua about these things, but Lan Wufeng had never been to Lin Zhenhua's house, so Lin Fanghua didn't know him.

"Humph, he's necrotic." Lin Fanghua said angrily, "I asked him if it could be cheaper, but he refused to agree. He also said that he had already lost money. Really, what a loss, he actually earned 6 yuan for a watch. .”

"It wasn't him, I earned 6 yuan." Lin Zhenhua corrected, "He was hired by me to sell goods, and all the money he earned was my money... Listen, someone knocked on the door, it should be him coming."

Lin Fanghua put down the bowl, went to open the door, and saw that the person standing at the door was indeed the young man who sold electronic watches that day.

"Excuse me, is this Brother Lin's house?" Lan Wufeng asked.

"Refund!" Lin Fanghua did not answer, but stretched out her hand.

"What's the refund?"

"Did you sell this watch to me?" Lin Fanghua held up the electronic watch and asked, "You bought it for 2 yuan, but you sold it to me for 8 yuan. Get your money back soon."

"This..." Lan Wufeng was stunned, not knowing what to say.

Seeing Lan Wufeng's naive look, Lin Fanghua couldn't help but chuckled: "Forget it, for the sake of helping my brother, come in quickly."

Only then did Lan Wufeng realize that Lin Zhenhua was standing behind Lin Fanghua. He pointed to Lin Fanghua and asked Lin Zhenhua, "Brother Lin, this is..."

"This is my sister Xiaofang." Lin Zhenhua said, "She is joking with you. However, you have to refund her money for her watch and replace it with a multi-functional one."

"No problem, no problem, I brought the watch here." Lan Wufeng said repeatedly, and he handed a canvas bag in front of Lin Fanghua, and said, "Sister Xiaofang, there are various styles of watches in here, you just have to Pick, take whichever one you like... Anyway, it's all your brother's stuff."

Lin Zhenhua patted Xiaofang on the shoulder, and said: "Xiaofang, you pick it up here, and Fengzi and I will go to your room to talk about something. You can watch the door for us so that no one can come in, you know? "

"Understood." Lin Fanghua said happily. She knew that this canvas bag electronic watch was the property of her brother, so she could choose it at will.She had already figured it out, she wanted to pick a piece for Yang Xin, Yang Tao, her tablemate, who else... Anyway, my brother said, the wholesale price of these watches is only 2 yuan.

Lin Zhenhua dragged Lan Wufeng into another room. Lan Wufeng saw that no one was eavesdropping or peeping outside the window, so he took out a large cloth bag from his close-fitting clothes and handed it to Lin Zhenhua: "Brother Lin, this It’s the income from selling goods these days, a total of 6467 yuan, and the bills are also included.”

"Sold for so much money?"

"Isn't it?" Lan Wufeng said excitedly, "You don't know how popular our electronic watches are. In three days, I sold more than 600 watches. But the calculator and the microphone mirror are not selling well. Great, not many sold."

"The calculator needs to be sold by the unit, and individuals don't know how to buy it. As for the microphone mirror, we have to wait two months." Lin Zhenhua said.

"I dare not go to the work unit." Lan Wufeng said, "Brother Lin, you don't know, even if I sell these electronic watches, I will bite the bullet. I really don't know how to bargain with others."

"Hehe, Xiaofang said that you are good at bargaining. Didn't she buy it for 8 yuan?"

"Every time I bargain with these people, I'm so anxious that I'm sweating. Brother Lin, you don't know, I don't feel tired selling these watches, but bargaining is really tiring." Lan Wufeng said with a sigh.

Lin Zhenhua opened the cloth bag, first picked up the bill and looked at it.Lan Wufeng is not good at keeping accounts, but he just writes down how much he sells every day, how much he receives, and so on.It can be seen that Lan Wufeng is very clear about money, and he doesn't want to get confused.

Lin Zhenhua looked at the bill, picked up the pile of banknotes again, counted out 100 bills of Great Unity, handed them to Lan Wufeng, and said, "Fengzi, this is yours."

"Brother Lin, I can't take so much." Lan Wufeng dodged back as if he was being burned.

"Didn't we agree in advance? After deducting the cost of all the income, you will get 6000%, and I will get [-]%. This time it is more than [-] yuan. You take [-] first, and the rest will be settled later."

"I can't ask for that much." Lan Wufeng insisted, "Brother Lin, when you told me, I thought I could earn a few hundred yuan a month, and I thought I would get 1000%, which is already pretty good." There are too many. Who knew that this watch sold so hot and made money so quickly. I just did my best, how could I get [-] yuan all at once?"

Lin Zhenhua said with a smile: "Fengzi, we are friends. We share the blessings and difficulties together. I discovered this way to make money, and of course everyone earned it together. I didn't make any effort, and I still got the big head. If You don't even take such a small point, do you still treat me, Lin Zhenhua, as a friend?"

"But, it's 1000 yuan!" Lan Wufeng said with trepidation, no matter how good the relationship between friends is, it's not enough to give someone 1000 yuan casually, right?

1000元钱在当年相当于一个国企职工20个月的工资，如果换算成今天国企工人工资每月2000元来计算，当年的2000块就相当于现在的4万块钱了。

"What is 1000 yuan? When our business grows in the future, we will earn hundreds of thousands. At that time, you will still think that 1000 yuan is too little." Lin Zhenhua said.

"But, I have 1000 yuan, why go?" Lan Wufeng took the money, a little dazed.In the past few days, although he has handled 7000 yuan, he has always believed that the money does not belong to him, so he only has a concept of numbers in his mind.Now, Lin Zhenhua handed over the 1000 yuan to him, and he has become the owner of the 1000 yuan. For a while, he didn't know how to spend such a sum of money.

"Buy some clothes for your mother first, and if you want to eat something good, go buy it too." Lin Zhenhua suggested.

"By the way, when I was in Guangzhou, I saw a woolen sweater called cashmere. I thought my mother would like it." Lan Wufeng said, "However, a piece of clothing costs more than 70 yuan. I never thought I could still afford it. Now that I have money, I must buy one for my mother.”

"You can buy two, let your mother wear one, hang the other on the wall, and enjoy watching." Lin Zhenhua came up with a bad idea.

"You're right, I bought two for my mother, one red and one blue."

"Also, you can buy a washing machine for your mother. It is very convenient to wash clothes. Just throw it in, press the button, and you can wash it without getting your hands wet. Your mother has rheumatism, so don't let her wash it frequently. It's water."

"Washing machine? Where is it? Is it expensive?" Lan Wufeng was really moved.

Lin Zhenhua said: "Fenghua County definitely doesn't have it, and Nandu City doesn't necessarily have it. Next time we go to Guangzhou, let's take a look. As for money, you don't have to worry about it at all, you earn enough money."

"Great, I will definitely buy it."

"Also, when you have more money, you should take your mother to see a doctor in Beijing or Shanghai. She has rheumatism, and it's not a complicated disease. If you go to a big hospital, it should be cured."

"Really?" Lan Wufeng stood up vigorously, "Brother Lin, how much will it cost to cure my mother's illness?"

"I think [-] to [-] is enough?" Lin Zhenhua said nonchalantly. In fact, it doesn't take that much money to cure a rheumatism.

"One to twenty thousand? Okay, I'll start saving money from now on." Lan Wufeng made up his mind.

"So now you still refuse to pay dividends?" Lin Zhenhua asked, he gave Lan Wufeng so many ideas, in fact, it was to strengthen his idea of ​​participating in dividends.Lin Zhenhua doesn't want to eat alone. If he has the opportunity to make money, it's better for everyone to make a fortune together.

Lan Wufeng shook his head and said: "Brother Lin, I know you are the one who takes care of me, but I shouldn't have taken so much money. Well, I owe you, and I will work harder to pay for the money in the future. "

"Okay, let's talk about the future." Lin Zhenhua said.He believed that with the continuous increase in income, Lan Wufeng should gradually accept the current arrangement.At the same time, he was also very relieved that he had chosen Lan Wufeng to help and he had not misjudged the wrong person.

"Fengzi, there is something I want to tell you. Now our business has started and we have the first pot of gold. Can you consider setting up a store in the county town so that you don't have to carry a big canvas bag every day? Like a smuggler." Lin Zhenhua suggested.

"Brother Lin, I'm about to tell you about this." Lan Wufeng said, "You have already told me about the renting of the storefront. I have also checked in the county town for the past two days. The house is willing to rent out, and the rent is not expensive. However, there is a troublesome thing, that is, I can't get a self-employed license."

"why?"

"Because my registered permanent residence is still in the Yunnan Agricultural Reclamation Farm. I have contacted the farm many times, but most of the people on the farm have left, and the few remaining are unwilling to take care of things. Plus I ran back back then. Yes, they said that the matter has not yet been concluded, and they cannot apply for an account for me for a while." Lan Wufeng said distressedly.

"This is a troublesome matter." Lin Zhenhua really didn't expect this level. In his mind, there was no such concept as household registration. Who knew that household registration had such a big role at that time.

"Fengzi, if we use your mother's identity to do it, is it okay?" Lin Zhenhua suddenly thought of another plan.Lan Wufeng's household registration is not in Fenghua, but Aunt Lan has an identity.

Lan Wufeng shook his head: "I also asked, and they said no. The Industrial and Commercial Bureau said that self-employment is now allowed to solve the employment problem of unemployed young people, so only unemployed young people can apply for a self-employed business license. My mother doesn't care about this. scope."

"Then where can we find another unemployed young man?" Lin Zhenhua felt a little headache.
