Chapter 10 The First Pot of Gold
2004, Tuesday, April 13th.
Li Dong woke up before four o'clock, and waited for Cao Fang to leave before getting up to wash, and hurried to Dongping Market.
The truck I contacted yesterday afternoon was waiting at the intersection on the side of the market. Li Dong stepped forward and greeted the truck master. The two chatted a few words and Lao Wang also rushed over.
"Dongzi, the goods are ready, you can see for yourself, if there is no problem, we will weigh it."
Li Dong is not hypocritical, this is his first transaction, whether he is an acquaintance or not, he has to look carefully, if he cheats himself, it will be troublesome.
Besides, I am not too familiar with Lao Wang, and it is not uncommon for those who like to be familiar with each other in business.
Dozens of plastic frames were neatly lined up and down in Lao Wang's truck, all of which were bright red. Li Dong grabbed a few lobsters and weighed them. They were not small and half-sized.
The main thing is to look at the spirit. If he died before it was transported to the provincial capital, then he would lose a lot.
After a random check around, it's fortunate that Lao Wang still pays attention to his business.
Weighing, settlement, busy work.
Excluding the dead ones, it still looks like 11,000 pounds.
Lao Wang picked up a few dead lobsters, laying on the stool and writing for a moment, raised his head and said to Li Dong: "Dongzi, a total of 11,096 kilograms, and you wiped off a fraction of it, 22,000 yuan, right?"
"Yes, thank you Uncle Wang."
There is no need for Lao Wang to speak, Li Dong continued: "I will send you a note, press your fingerprints, and settle the bill in three days."
Lao Wang smiled and said loudly: "Changliang! You are a straightforward person. If the sales are good this time, continue to find me next time. Uncle Wang promises to give you the best price!"
The two wrote a note while talking, Li Dong pressed his fingerprints, and Lao Wang also greeted someone to help Li Dong load the goods.
After some tossing, the sky was already bright, Li Dong looked at his phone, it was ten past six.
After saying goodbye to Lao Wang, Li Dong got into the truck he rented and drove to Pingchuan quickly.
As for the truck master, he didn't ask Li Dong why he wanted to deliver the goods to the provincial capital. Li Dong paid a thousand yuan for the freight, which was not cheap, and he didn't take it seriously if he couldn't tell others.
These days, he does his own thing, as long as he has money, Li Dong said that if this time goes well, he will find him again, and if he can pull in ten or eight times a month, he will make a lot of money.
...
It was half past nine when we arrived in Pingchuan. On the way, Li Dong had already called the bearded boss.
The truck was parked in an open space behind Nanmen Market, and the bearded man was already waiting, followed by a few people, who should be his cousins.
As soon as the car stopped, the bearded man hurriedly looked at the goods, and Li Dong did not stop him.
After unloading a basket of lobsters, the bearded man looked at it, and nodded his head behind him.
Seeing this, a few other people hurriedly stepped forward to check, and after five or six minutes, the bearded man was satisfied: "Yes, the spirit is quite good, can you guarantee that you will be of this quality in the future?"
"Don't worry, I can still cheat Boss Chen?" Li Dong also smiled. "It's not too early, why don't we unload the goods and weigh them? It's all mine. The first transaction can't let Boss Chen suffer."
"Haha, be happy! The old man will take advantage of you, let's unload the goods!"
If you say hello, you don't need to find anyone else. Several guys are all aquatic products sellers, and they are very skilled at doing this.
It's faster than Dongping, and it took half an hour to count.
Some bumps died on the road, but not much, like dozens of pounds.
In addition to the shrinkage, it was almost 11,000 catties. Beard and Li Dong didn't care about these few catties, and finally settled at 11,000 catties.
Big Beard's business is not small, and it is not difficult to get tens of thousands of dollars in cash.
I settled the money with Li Dong on the spot,
After throwing away the previous deposit of 3,000, the remaining 52,000 was wrapped in newspaper and handed to Li Dong, along with Li Dong's ID card.
Li Dong took the money and counted it himself, and he was relieved after confirming that it was accurate.
Immediately afterwards, there was an irresistible look on his face. The payment of 22,000 yuan, the shipping fee of 1,000 yuan, and the workers did not ask for money for loading and unloading the goods.
Some are incredible, and some are unbelievable. No one in Dongping actually does something with such a big profit!
This thing is too simple and has no technical content at all. Those fishmongers in Dongping are willing to take a little risk, and it is not his turn to eat the meat.
But if you think about it again, it won't be a long-term business. Li Dong is also a little disappointed. If he can keep doing this, he won't need to do other things. With 20,000 yuan a day, he can eat and die in less than a year. .
A little bit of loss in my heart will soon disappear. To be a human being, you have to be content. You can earn so much in just a day or two and expect so much.
After chatting with the bearded boss, he was busy doing business and was leaving, so Li Dong didn't bother and got on the truck and returned to Dongping with the master.
Fortunately, I just opened the truck master, otherwise he would be moved when he saw so much money.
Li Dong wondered if he wanted to change the truck master next time, but the old one wouldn't work, and he couldn't find so many people in a while.
Thinking about it again, as long as you hide it for the next two months, the business should be over, and the truck driver has not seen how much money he has made, so he will not have other thoughts.
...
There was nothing to say all the way, and Li Dong arrived in Dongping before two o'clock in the afternoon.
Getting off the car near the school, Li Dong hurried to the class, and the afternoon class had not yet started.
Wang Jie was a little worried when he saw Li Dong coming, and hurriedly said: "Dongzi, you didn't come here in the morning and old Chen was angry. He just came to the class to look for you."
Li Dong slapped his forehead, but he forgot to ask for leave.
Not because Lao Chen would get angry, but because he was worried that the teacher would call his parents. Now is the most critical moment.
Not bothering to talk to Wang Jie, Li Dong hurried to the office to find Chen Guohua.
...
In the office, Chen Guohua was grading the test paper, and when he looked up, he saw Li Donglai and said with a dark face: "You skipped class this morning? Do you know how much you took in this mock test?"
Li Dong was stunned for a while, then remembered that he heard Wang Jie say that he had taken a mock test a few days ago, but at that time he hadn't been reborn, and he didn't care.
Without waiting for Li Dong to reply, Chen Guohua said, "Five hundred and twenty minutes!"
"The class rank is thirty-seventh. When you first entered high school, I remember that the class rank seems to be seventh, and you have dropped 30 places! It's difficult to get one grade, and two are barely enough. Do you think you are worthy of yourself?"
Chen Guohua's face was full of hatred, but Li Dongren was still very smart, otherwise he would not have entered the experimental class of No. 1 Middle School.
But this guy is not focused on his studies. He spends the whole day either surfing the Internet or fighting. He doesn't come to school for self-study at night. Now he even skips classes during the day.
With an innocent face, Li Dong hurriedly smiled and said, "Teacher, I know I have a responsibility this time. But I really didn't skip class. I went out in the morning to have diarrhea, and I didn't have time to ask for leave. I'll be here in the afternoon."
Seeing that Li Dong's face was indeed not very good, of course, after a day's ride in the car, it was not much better.
Chen Guohua didn't feel embarrassed any more, but warned: "The college entrance examination is coming soon. Don't eat indiscriminately during this time. It is the most important thing to keep your body healthy."
Seeing that Li Dong hadn't left yet, Chen Guohua asked curiously, "What? Is there anything else?"
"Well, Mr. Chen, I want to take a few days off..."
"You're still asking for leave at this juncture? Are you still sick?" Chen Guohua's face was not very good-looking.
Li Dong shook his head and sneered: "It's a bit of a personal matter, but Mr. Chen, don't worry, I will definitely not relax in my studies. It's probably just this week. Isn't it all reviewing now? I review it by myself at night, so I don't delay."
Chen Guohua frowned. That's what he said, but there must be a difference in the efficiency of reviewing alone and reviewing with everyone at school.
But after all, they are about to graduate, and if they manage too tightly, they will cause the rebellious psychology of teenagers.
After thinking about it, he said: "If you are not in a hurry, it is best not to ask for leave. If you are in a hurry, you can come to the school for self-study at night, and you can ask the teacher if you don't understand anything."
Li Dong thought about it and agreed. He should have nothing to do at night, and he could just ask questions that he didn't know.
Walking out of the office, Li Dong secretly thought that the old Chen was not bad, and thought he would not agree.
Back to class, the afternoon class has already started.
Li Dong didn't listen, and continued to rummage through various materials to see if he could find some more college entrance examination questions.
Not to mention, in the afternoon, Li Dong found several questions of the same question type. Except for some changes in the data, the questions were almost the same.
The money was earned and the college entrance examination questions were found. Li Dong was in a good mood.
Li Dong, who didn't quite understand a few questions, didn't worry either. There were a lot of good people in the class, and the teacher was there. Just ask more questions and understand.
However, be careful, it is best to add some other questions, otherwise, after the college entrance examination, others will find that they are asking all the questions of the college entrance examination, and they will not be able to tell at that time.
