Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

Zeng Wangcai only remembered to tell Xu Damao not to lend money to Sha Zhu, but he didn't mention anyone else.

His purpose is very simple, which is to let Sha Zhu go back to ask for the money. Now Sha Zhu has mortgaged his house to Lao Wu, proving that Sha Zhu did not get the money when he went back.

Okay, you said you would be fine just to enjoy your retirement, why do you have to come and mess with me?

Now, your godson is alienated from you.

Just play it yourself.

Zeng Wangcai smiled and asked, "How much does he want?"

"Twenty thousand!" Lao Wu replied.

"It seems that part of it was borrowed, and part of it was private money." Zeng Wangcai thought for a while and said, "Fifth brother, if Shazhu redeems the house later, you give it to him. We don't want the house."

"Yes!" Lao Wu nodded in agreement, sat for a while, handed in his account, and left.

The real estate market has not yet taken off, but it is only in the northern and southern cities. It has already started in Guangzhou in the south.

After all, Zeng Wangcai is just a human being, not a god, so he cannot stop the big trend of real estate.

But since you can't stop it, just go with it. It's a good way to make money, right?

After Lao Wu left, Zeng Wangcai and Zhang Xiuzhi prepared to cook lunch, which was a regular routine for them.

But before it even started, Mr. Li from Yard 88 came over.

"Wangcai, Wangcai..." Uncle Li came in yelling, "I heard you want to do business with foreigners, take me with you."

"......" Zeng Wangcai walked out wearing an apron and continued to talk to Uncle Li, "Who told you that? Just because I heard it at the door of the grocery store that day, you want to go into business? Don't lose all your savings."

"I can't follow you!" Uncle Li walked into the house cheerfully, greeted Zeng Youqian and his wife, sat down and said, "In the past, we didn't understand your business and didn't get involved, but this time is different. I heard that you just buy in and sell out. We don't understand this, but we can pay for it... By the way, now the whole Nanluoguxiang knows it. Shazhu said this when he borrowed money."

"Haha!" Zeng Wangcai was speechless.

"Don't just laugh, believe it or not!" Uncle Li glared and said, "If it's difficult, forget it. If it's not difficult, I'll invest the money. If I lose money, I'll take the blame and don't blame you. We can sign a contract."

"Well, you're getting more and more ridiculous." Zeng Wangcai said with a smile, "How much money do you have? Forget about the receipt. I won't lose anything. It's just a matter of how much I can earn."

There is only one risk in this business: transportation.

With Zeng Wangcai around, this risk can be almost ignored.

"I'll give you 2,000!" Uncle Li said mysteriously, "This is my retirement fund, and also the money my son gives me as a gift. I've saved it all."

Two thousand is indeed a lot, but...it is not enough for foreign trade.

"How about this, when Xu Damao gets off work, we'll go to the grocery store and tell him to collect the money and keep the account."

"Okay, bright and open!"

Not long after Uncle Li left, another person came, still a neighbor from Nanluoguxiang. This person gave less, only 500.

Then people kept coming, some offered five hundred and some offered two or three thousand.

Although the amount is not large, there are so many people. It was not until four or five in the afternoon that Zeng Wangcai made a rough calculation and found that there were actually 70,000 or 80,000 yuan.

Sunday was ruined, so Zeng Wangcai simply went to the grocery store and called everyone together for a meeting.

"Give all the money to Xu Damao!" Zeng Wangcai said to his neighbors, "We can discuss the rest with him directly. We will definitely make money, but we can't guarantee how much, but it's more than what we have in the bank anyway.

"Also, this deal is not a one-time deal. It can be a long-term deal. You can discuss whether you want to do it in the future. And the last question, after you make money, you have to give them a commission. They risk going abroad to buy for you, so they can't work for you for nothing. How much commission is? You can decide after you make money. After the first deal, you have to pay it no matter how much. If you feel the commission is problematic the second time, you don't have to do it."

"No problem, no problem..." Uncle Li spoke on behalf of everyone, "You still have to pay a handling fee when you go to the bank, this commission is normal."

"Okay, Xu Damao will tell you later. By the way... the money was in place before Xu Damao went abroad, but he won't be in charge after he goes abroad."

After handing the stall to Xu Damao, Zeng Wangcai went back quickly. His wife cooked dinner, which was a rare Sichuan and Chongqing dish.

After dinner, Zeng Wangcai and Zhang Xiuzhi went back to their room to lie down.

They were still used to living in the back room they had converted earlier, and were used to lying on the sofa together watching movies on Sunday nights.

Zhang Xiuzhi likes watching movies very much. She likes to watch all kinds of movies, but only those from later generations.

Because she is busy, Zhang Xiuzhi cannot watch it anywhere else and can only watch two movies every Sunday night. All the Zeng family members now know that this time belongs to Zeng Wangcai and his wife and no one can disturb them.

Today, Zeng Wangcai recommended Detective Chinatown to his wife, which focuses on a light-hearted and suspenseful style, because he could see that his wife particularly likes these two styles of movies.

"It's starting, it's starting, come on!" Zeng Wangcai called to his wife who was washing fruit on the sofa, "Let me tell you, the movie I recommend to you this time is really funny, roo roo..."

Zhang Xiuzhi brought over the washed grapes, put a grape into Zeng Wangcai's mouth, sat on the sofa, and watched the movie attentively.

When she saw Brother Qiang using the Millennium Kill, Zhang Xiuzhi laughed; when she saw the elevator scene, she couldn't stop laughing...

After watching one, Zeng Wangcai smiled and said, "How is it? Are you feeling better?"

"Yeah!" Zhang Xiuzhi lay on Zeng Wangcai's chest obediently, "No need to watch, let's talk for a while."

"Is it still about the factory? Okay, I won't watch it." Zeng Wangcai turned off the movie and put away the equipment. "What's going on that makes my wife unhappy?"

"Big deal!" Zhang Xiuzhi stretched out her hand and drew a circle on Zeng Wangcai's chest, and said, "Our factory can't keep up with the production. I think we have to open another factory, mainly for base station equipment. Liangzi has told me twice that our material supply is too slow, which affects the laying of base stations."

"There is no problem in opening a factory. The higher-ups will definitely support it." Zeng Wangcai said quietly, "The problem is the raw materials. Our country's infrastructure has been built up, but steel and other materials cannot keep up. Steel is needed everywhere."

This situation happened a lot in advance. Zeng Wangcai remembered that in the original book, Liu Haizhong relied on an apprentice named Lan to become the director of the third branch factory, and was able to get rebar. Finally, he cooperated with Xu Damao to do business, a shell company, and made a lot of money.

The situation now is the same as it was then. For scarce materials like steel, it is not so difficult to obtain in small quantities. Ordinary people can use some connections to get one or two tons. But if the quantity is large and the supply needs to be kept for a long time, then there will be problems.

The country is now allocating this total resource and using it according to plan.

The steel rolling mill now has enough raw materials, but it does not mean that another factory will also have raw materials. After all, the laying of base stations is important, and other construction is also important. It is impossible for Zeng Wangcai to meet all of them alone.

"There is an enlarged meeting in the department. Why don't you go and attend it?" Zhang Xiuzhi said.

"Another fight for quotas? It's the end of the year, and you want to fight for the quotas for the first quarter of next year?" Zeng Wangcai understood immediately, "You are familiar with this, why do you want me to go? To be honest, if I go, it will be troublesome, and I will have to meet a lot of leaders."

"This time is different." Zhang Xiuzhi said, "Beijing Auto's Director Zhou wants to expand production, and he wants to bring Kameda here to promote it. He is eyeing FAW's market share. I don't want to talk to them, because I'm afraid I can't help but beat them up."

Can't help hitting them...

Zeng Wangcai's mouth twitched. His wife was still the same wife: "Okay, I'll go and meet Zhou Bo. He's really rebellious. He dared to snatch things from my wife..."
