Return To 1977 Chapter 576: Practical combat

But from this moment on, things started to go completely smoothly.
Perhaps it is the quiet and comfortable environment here that has the effect. Although the "little wife" and "little cheese" are extremely uncomfortable with this bitter medicine soup-like thing, they can sit on such a comfortable sofa and take a sip. Wearing this expensive item does feel different from standing on the street drinking soda.
It seems that I have become noble from head to toe. Even if you put on a show for others to see, you can force yourself to become more stable and consistent with the environment.
Even more fortunately, there were very few people here in the morning. But after they waited for a while, a blond man and a woman came to the cafe.
As soon as the coffee the two foreigners wanted was served, Hong Yanwu was like a long-awaited hunter who finally seized the opportunity and took action without hesitation.
At this time, both the "little wife" and the couple watched Hong Yanwu's every move. They even blushed and looked at the waiter standing in the corner of the restaurant and the waiter leaving with the plate, for fear that they would suspect Hong Yanwu.
Fortunately, Hong Yanwu just waved his hand and put the card on the table, and was easily welcomed by the two foreigners and sat down. They look like acquaintances, very natural. The waiter didn't even look at it.
There was no trouble in following, and I just looked at the price comparison card that Hong Yanwu took out. The foreign man nodded, then took out his wallet and started counting the bills.
In this way, Hong Yanwu succeeded and successfully concluded his first transaction. He exchanged 315 yuan for 300 yuan in foreign exchange certificates at a ratio of 1.05:1, which is 315 yuan.
As for the benefits gained from it, the "little wife" and his wife soon realized it.
An hour later, it was approaching noon, when they found no more hunting targets and were about to leave the cafe to eat. Hong Yanwu paid the bill in RMB.
At this time, "Little Wife" and "Little Cheese" discovered the article inside. The original price on the drink list was one dollar and a half, but that was the price of the foreign exchange coupon. If you pay in RMB, it costs two yuan a cup. According to the waiter, this is the rule.
From this we can know what the quality of the foreign exchange coupons marked "equal to RMB" is. Calculated based on this ratio, the three hundred foreign exchange coupons exchanged by Hong Yanwu actually earned eighty-five. This is almost equivalent to the profit they make from reselling a TV.
Of course, it is impossible to only spend money in Beijing hotels with foreign exchange coupons. If it is in other places, the gap may not be so high. But it's already worth doing.
On the other hand, are foreigners who exchange foreign exchange certificates for RMB stupid?
They are not stupid either. Private shops and non-foreign-related hotels are not allowed to collect foreign exchange coupons. It is particularly difficult for foreigners to buy daily necessities. In fact, foreigners are eager to have some RMB in their hands, so as to avoid making a special trip to foreign-related stores for shopping. Not only are private goods much cheaper, but you can also buy things that are not sold in high-end stores.
On the same day, Hong Yanwu and the others came back from dinner and went to the cafe again. By 7 o'clock in the evening, people began to take turns, and eight more tables of guests were interviewed one after another. All but two rejections resulted in deals being made.
This is not only "little wife" and "little cheese" shouting "easy". Hong Yanwu also gradually discovered that foreigners seemed to be more eager to own RMB than they were.
You must know that there is no peer doing this at this time, it is completely a seller's market, so the last two exchanges were even at a fair price.
On this day, the three of them exchanged a total of 2,300 yuan in foreign exchange coupons. According to the amount exchanged by the "young wife" couple, which was one thousand two hundred yuan, Hong Yanwu gave them sixty yuan. It is calculated based on 5% commission.
In other words, if they exchanged all the foreign exchange coupons on this day by themselves, then they would get one hundred and fifteen yuan. What if they work harder, one works here and the other works in Youyi? That could double.
And that's not all, Hong Yanwu also told them that considering that some foreigners are "chicken thieves", they will not exchange the profits without giving them away. From now on, when they completely go it alone, the ratio can be 7%. Anyway, he pays them according to the amount of foreign exchange certificates, and any profit in the process belongs to them.
In addition, the "young wives" couple have to admit that the working conditions are much happier than selling movie tickets or running a TV factory. Not only was it not tiring, it was simply enjoyable.
From then on, they would either sit together drinking coffee and reading newspapers, or go shopping and chatting, and earn money easily. Where can there be such a beautiful thing in the world? It's like a pie falling from the sky.
So "little wife" and "little cheese" are both embarrassed. They felt like they were robbing Hong Yanwu of his money. Hong Yanwu had to be asked to lower the exchange ratio.
But Hong Yanwu insisted on this. Say, "Don't worry about me. In fact, the more you earn, the more I will earn. It's just that my profits come from another line. For safety reasons and for your own good, just I won't tell you anymore. I leave this matter to you just to keep your mind at ease. Just keep it secret and don't attract anyone's attention. To put it bluntly, it won't be a good time. It will take a long time, and soon others will see the benefits here, and it will be equally difficult.”
From then on, everything became natural and easy. Although the "little daughter-in-law" couple dressed beautifully and ran out every day, they still had to carry neighbors and acquaintances on their backs, which was a bit regretful for "walking at night in beautiful clothes". But the life was indeed beautiful.
Think about it, the Capital Hotel and the Friendship Store. That's everyone's dream place. Comfortable all year round, with plenty to eat and drink. If nothing else, a visit is an eye-opener. What's more, there are still a lot of money waiting for them to earn?
In the first three days of my work, the "little daughter-in-law" and his wife exchanged 4,900 yuan in foreign exchange coupons at the Jingcheng Hotel. Three days later, they exchanged 6,700 yuan in foreign exchange coupons at the "Friendship Store". After they completely adapted to the environment and worked independently, they could exchange for four thousand yuan almost every day.
According to this method, calculated on a monthly basis, they can actually earn themselves 10,000 yuan. This is a big business comparable to opening a factory.
What they are still worried about is that besides attracting the attention of others, they have to change locations every day. That is to say, they are afraid that too much funds will be occupied and Hong Yanwu's cash will not be able to provide it.
Together, the two of them even planned to give their own money to Hong Yanwu.
Unexpectedly, Hong Yanwu would eat whatever they paid for, without even frowning. How could they not be impressed by this?
Master Hong is Master Hong. Standing high and seeing far away, he can point out the road paved with gold just by extending his hand. There is nothing in the world that embarrasses him, and there is nothing that he cannot accomplish.
Following such a master is the greatest blessing! No matter what you ask them to do in the future, there will be no nonsense.
Even if Mr. Hong pointed at a big cesspool and asked them to jump into it, they would not hesitate to jump in. Who knows what benefits there might be?
Don't worry, he didn't run away!
