Return To 1977 Chapter 185: Selling the goods

In the next few days, Hong Yanwu and the others continued to collect sea cucumbers separately.

Because of the incentive effect of banknotes, the two brothers "Sanjizi" and "Xiaipizi" had endless energy, threw off their arms and worked hard, almost destroying the "Haichengzi" they knew “Everyone’s running around the house.

Seeing how hard they worked, the "general" naturally understood the two brothers' desire to make more extra money, so he took the initiative to give in after only one day of work and refused to give up.

But even so, because "Sanjizi" and "Xiapaizi" were in the same social circle, they still came to the door repeatedly several times. For this reason, the two of them simply discussed it in private and divided the area. , to avoid this meaningless "internal competition".

In the end, "Sanjizi" and "Xiaipizi" collected a total of more than 180 kilograms of sea cucumbers. If the general's head was included and collected more than 50 kilograms, it would be 240 kilograms.

As for Hong Yanwu, he only went to "Old Saury" to take him to a few stores in Duoduo. He didn't bargain with them at all. He just collected about forty kilograms and gave up. His intelligence was more reflected in the sales of sea cucumbers three days later, and in figuring out how to get a few more diving goggles as requested by "Ba Octopus".

The first thing about selling sea cucumbers was absolutely smooth.

On the agreed day, those hotel guests who had established friendships took the initiative to come to inquire about the results. So Hong Yanwu easily broke his own sales record.

He sold all the 150 kilograms of low-end sea cucumbers that he had recently collected, and still sold 35 kilograms of high-end sea cucumbers at a high price.

In the last accounting, after deducting all costs, not only did the net profit of the public account increase to 2,639 yuan and 71 cents, but a total of 120 kilograms of high-grade light dried ginseng was also taken away.

But even so, because the "general" and the others had already expected this, they were happy and excited, but they did not show the complete disbelief of surprise like last time. Their response was to celebrate by dragging Hong Yanwu out for a drink and knocking him down in the name of condolences.

As for the second thing about diving goggles, it is really difficult to do it. Because that is a huge problem recognized by all sea bumpers.

As mentioned before, water mirrors are all homemade, and they are not sold in sports stores these days. The biggest difficulty in making your own water mirror is where to get the rubber and suitable glass for the water mirror.

There are rubber shoe repair stalls. It only costs 20 cents to buy a piece of rubber. However, the problem is that it is either thick or hard or thin and soft. In most cases, you can only make do with it. Once you dive deep, it will easily leak. The water mirror made can only be regarded as a defective product.

Suitable glass is even more scarce. If it is thin, it will be fragile, but if it is thick, it will become fragile. The most suitable glass is only four centimeters thick. But glass of this size is extremely rare. What you can see in Bincheng is almost all glass produced by the "East Asia Glass Kiln" during the Japanese rule, which has disappeared since liberation.

In addition, after decades of ups and downs, it is extremely difficult to find this kind of glass for ordinary people's windows. Even if there are two pieces, they have long been removed by "sea bumpers" to make water mirrors. Almost as if extinct. The probability of finding this kind of glass again is basically the same as the probability of discovering a gold mine.

So, this is really an almost unsolvable proposition. As for the "generals", none of them had any hope. They felt that Hong Yanwu could find a solution, so from the beginning, they advised Hong Yanwu not to take it seriously.

"Sanjizi" starts from human feelings.

"I know that boy Ba Chu' best. He is not a fussy person. He was just joking with you. Don't mind!"

"Xiaipizi" considers practical benefits.

"Your ability is obvious, what is the water mirror! I don't believe it, who of you can't get along with money? When the money is flashed, they will definitely look at you as if they were looking at a great beauty!"

The words of "General" are the most truthful and domineering.

"You, you are tired of selling so many sea cucumbers. You should take a good rest and don't worry about this. I am here for anything. I will leave you alone and you will be my home. , I am the home of those boys!”

Although Hong Yanwu was grateful for the kindness of the three people, he still refused to give up. He still had his own reasons.

"After all, everyone is watching. If I can't do it, I will ask others to listen to me. It's still a bit unfair. 'General', I believe you can persuade everyone with orders. You can force yourself on others. But it will damage your prestige. Coercion cannot last long, and if it goes on like this, people may be able to listen at first, but then they will probably not listen at all, and in the end they will not listen at all. Listen. Let me think of a way to try it out. It’s also to enhance the productivity of our group, right? If it really doesn’t work, you guys can help me out..."

The three senior "Hai Bangzi" recognized Hong Yanwu's truth and were convinced. But they still didn't believe that Hong Yanwu could achieve anything practical. After all, there is a gap between ideals and reality, so how can everything go as planned?

But unexpectedly, life is something that most people don’t expect. Not even a day and a half after this conversation, Hong Yanwu placed the seven large pieces of rubber and three large pieces of "Japanese-made glass" in front of several people.

Not only are the pieces suitable for use, but this quantity is enough to make a dozen water mirrors. In other words, even doubling the number of "troops" would be enough. How could the "general" and the others remain indifferent to this?

As a result, the eyes of "General", "Sanjizi" and "Xiapaizi" were shocked again. They once again felt the vibration like a magnitude 7 earthquake.

"三戗子" shouted on the spot.

"Oh my god, am I not dreaming! When will "Nissan Glass" be available in such large quantities?"

The "Shrimp Crawler" was also amazed.

"Absolute! You can still do things that we can't do! There is nothing in this world that you can't do!"

The general couldn't hold himself any longer and couldn't wait to urge him.

"Tell me, how did you get it? I said you kid can't know the Japanese..."

Unfortunately, the more anxious these three people are, the less anxious Hong Yanwu is. At the critical moment, he looked at three pairs of eyes staring at him with full of inquisitiveness. He actually smiled proudly and pretended to keep it a secret, insisting that he would reveal the mystery when other pirates got together.

This made the "general" and the others very depressed. If we go by current terms, it would have turned from a fan to a bad person immediately, and everyone wished they had Hong Yanwu tortured and forced to find out the inside story.

But Hong Yanwu was not stupid. After saying this, he took the opportunity to escape without giving them any time to react. He did not come back until the evening, and he also bought three pairs of flippers, saying that they would supplement the team. This time, the "generals" who had been up until now and were holding back on blocking him were completely speechless.

So the next day, even Hong Yanwu still clenched his teeth and refused to spit. "General" and the others were aroused by the suspense in their hearts, and they were too embarrassed to do anything violent. They could only take the materials and go out to find someone to make a water mirror.

It wasn't until they came back with more than a dozen finished water mirrors in the evening that they finally thought of opening a breakthrough through "Xiao Baizi" who followed Hong Yanwu to get the water mirrors. If that didn't work, they decided to drag Hong Yanwu out for a drink again, and they had to let this kid tell the truth even if they both suffered losses.

Unexpectedly, "Xiao Baizi" had secretly received Hong Yanwu's instructions and asked for an "information fee" of ten yuan from each person before he could tell them what was going on.

As a result, the three of them endured the pain and paid the money. After hearing what happened, they slapped their thighs and sighed together.

"How do you people in the capital grow your heads? You can all imagine such a damaging trick!"
