Rebirth 1983

Chapter 31

Chapter 31
Although the road thugs were repelled, Daniel also suffered a lot of sticks. Everyone's good mood of making money was also washed away by the road tyrant blocking the road.

Daniu was driving the donkey cart, and the cart was speeding along the path, much faster than when it came. In the dark night when the moonlight was covered by clouds, there was not even a shadow left.

The crowd drove for several kilometers in donkey carts before they felt relieved. Chen Song looked back and saw that there was nothing but pitch black.

"Scared me!"

Wang Yao hugged Yaotiao, her delicate body was still trembling, even though Chen Song and Daniu repelled Luba, Wang Yao still couldn't forget this incident.

"Mom, don't be afraid, there are uncles and uncles to protect us!"

The little girl's eyes were big and shining, and she didn't show much fear. Instead, she comforted her mother, and Chen Song couldn't help but look at her with admiration.

Chen Song touched the frame of the donkey cart to prevent himself from being thrown off by the fast-moving donkey cart. Hearing the conversation between the mother and daughter, he comforted them: "Don't be afraid, isn't it all right now?"

"However, this incident also reminded us that we must not disclose our wealth. Now that everyone is poor, it is hard to guarantee that someone will be jealous of us and take risks." Chen Song paused, looked at Daniel and Wang Yao: "We will all act together in the future, and put a few sticks in the car for self-defense."

"Okay." Daniu nodded in agreement. He has traveled far and wide to solicit goods outside. He knows that in this world, the countryside is no better than the city, and the law and order is not good.

For the next journey, everyone was more cautious, not daring to be careless in the slightest, and the donkey cart hurried to Chenjia'ao.Accompanied by the barking of dogs in the village, he hurried back to Wang Yao's house.

The kerosene lamp in Wang Yao's house was out of oil, so Daniel took out a flashlight that he carried with him and hung it in the back room so that the light could shine on the table as much as possible.

"Sister-in-law, how much did we sell for our lobsters and snails?" When it came to money, Daniel with a loud voice lowered his voice and asked Wang Yao in a low voice.

Wang Yao didn't answer, but glanced at Chen Song and Daniel, and took out a plastic bag from the inner lining of the clothes. The thick plastic bag was tied by a yellow rubber band.

Wang Yao untied the plastic bag and dumped all the banknotes and coins in the plastic bag on the table.

Everyone looked at the money on the table, especially Daniu and Wang Yao, and instantly covered their mouths.

It's not that they haven't seen money, but they just didn't expect to make so much money in one night.

Relying on the light of the flashlight, the three of them counted the tenors one by one. Under the light, only the three silently counted the tenors tacitly, pressing them on the palms of their hands.

Little Yaoyao couldn't hold back her pajamas for a long time, and told Wang Yao that she was going to bed. Wang Yao was immersed in the joy of counting money, but she didn't respond. Yaoyao curled her lips and went to sleep by herself.

"I have 27 yuan and [-] cents." Wang Yao clutched the bills and coins in her hands tightly, and said the exact amount of money in her hands in disbelief.

"For me, 35 yuan and fifty cents, why so much?"

Daniel looked at the money in his hand and fell into deep thought. When did it become so easy to make money.

"Guess how much I have here?" Chen Song glanced at them, and smiled mysteriously: "42 yuan! A total of 42 yuan! The three of us add up to [-] yuan."

Wang Yao and Daniel gasped.

"Let's count again."

Daniu said something in a muffled voice, and Wang Yao nodded in agreement.

Both of them thought it was a wrong count, but Chen Song had already expected it. After all, how many catties of lobsters and snails he had was very clear. After converting to the price, he must have an idea of ​​the approximate number. It was just that the two of them still didn't quite believe it, so they had to cooperate with the two of them to count several times before finally confirming.

"This money is too easy to come by!"

In this day and age, a general worker in a factory with good profitability earns about 26 to 30 yuan a month, which is the middle level in the city.

And they earned one hundred and five yuan a night, which was three and a half times the salary of a general worker.

Wang Yao was so excited that she almost cried out.

Since her husband's time, she has been working desperately in the field, thinking that she can get more money from the field, so that she can raise Xiao Yaotiao and make the family's life less difficult.

Wang Yao's family cultivates three acres of paddy fields a year, and once the public grain is handed over every year, even if the leftover rice is not eaten or drunk, it costs about two hundred yuan to sell it all. This is still a good harvest year.

Of course, it is impossible to sell all the food that you grow, after all, you still have to eat!

But unexpectedly, Chen Song took her to catch lobsters, buy lobsters, simply spent a little bit of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and sold lobsters and snails for one night, which was equivalent to the land he had planted for more than half a year.

Wang Yao felt that her long-standing belief almost collapsed in front of this pile of ten-cent bills!

Not only Wang Yao, but also Daniel, was shocked beyond measure!
He lost his mother and his father lost the ability to work, so he was paralyzed at home and unable to work. Daniu was all supported by himself, and even rented out his own land to others.

Daniel is away all year round, relying on this donkey to pull goods in more than a dozen counties around him, and doing labor work. Although he earns a little more than farming, most of the money is still invested in Daniel's father's medicine money. This is a bottomless pit!

Originally, Daniu didn't hold much hope for his good brother to let him join in and sell some crayfish together. After all, he is a good brother, and he will definitely help if he can help. I didn't expect this business to be so lucrative!
Compared to Wang Yao who was still in shock, Daniel soon stabilized his mind.

"Brother, do you really want me to have a hand in this business?"

Daniel stared at Chen Song in a daze. He didn't expect that Chen Song, who had been staying in Chenjia'ao, had such courage, which was stronger than himself who traveled all over the world.

An idea suddenly sounded in Daniu's heart, follow Chen Songqian, absolutely right!

"Daniu, are you saying that the lobster business is difficult to do?" Chen Song didn't answer, but asked Daniel a question with a serious expression.

Hearing this, Daniel immediately shook his head, then remembered something, and his face sank slightly.

Daniel is just simple and honest, but he is not stupid.If you are really stupid, then if you travel around in this era, you will be cheated to death.

After thinking about it for a while, Daniel clearly understands that everyone is poor now. As long as they see a profitable business, they will immediately follow suit. Now there is no concept of copyright awareness. If you can sell it, why can’t I sell it?
Therefore, the business of selling crayfish probably won't last long.

If the business is too good, it is easy to attract people's envy. A large group of people will pour in and make the business go bad. In the end, no one will make any money.

"I was thinking about it, so even if I join you, I won't be able to do it for long." Daniel sighed slightly, knowing that he might still have to go out and find work.

"I want to invite you to do other things with me in the future, so keep it secret for now, how about it?" Chen Song asked.

Chen Song clearly understands that his only advantage in crayfish is that the lobster he cooks is really delicious, and according to him, there are other flavors that can attract diners.On this basis, what they can do is to accumulate enough capital for transformation before this industry is crazily ruined by everyone, so that the future path will be easier.

As for the direction of transformation, Chen Song has long thought about it, but there is a lack of trustworthy people, and Daniu and Wang Yao can just fill in this vacancy.

"Sister Wang Yao, you too, I hope we can work together as a three in the future, just like selling crayfish this time."

Chen Song stared at Wang Yao with hopeful eyes.
