Reborn back to 1986

Chapter 9
Li Yan hurriedly stopped him: "Old uncle, let me tell you the truth, there is a classmate in our class whose distant uncle is a doctor of medicinal materials, and he told me that his uncle will come to our town next month. If anyone can get more Maoguduo flower roots, his uncle will charge them at least forty cents, maybe even more."

Cui Wenwu's eyes lit up immediately: "Forty cents a catty? Then I can dig seventy to eighty catties a day, and dry thirty to forty catties. Calculated to earn twelve or three yuan. Ten days It’s only one hundred and twenty-three, and it’s two hundred and forty-six in 20 days, haha, that’s enough to buy dozens of boxes of cannons.”

Li Yan: "..." Can we have higher pursuits?But think about it, a 17-year-old boy, what higher level of thought can he expect?

"Uncle, I actually think so. You see, those boys in our fort listen to you very much. If you let them dig roots together, we will give them [-] cents a catty and we will earn a lot of money. A dime difference, do you think they will do it?" This is Li Yan's real goal, mobilizing a large army saves time, effort and benefits compared to single-handedly.

"Give them thirty cents a catty. Where can they find such a good thing? I would definitely do it. Yanzi, your little head is pretty good. Alright, leave this to your boss." I'm sorry, those boys listen to me, and I'll gather them for a meeting later, and start working tomorrow. But, Yanzi, this thing has to be done, so don't no one accept it for nothing in the end? "

Li Yanhan said: "Don't worry, old uncle, I have a good relationship with that classmate, she can't lie to me. However, there is something I need to discuss with you."

"What are you talking about?" Cui Wenwu didn't realize that he had already treated Li Yan as an adult talking without realizing it.

Li Yan took out the ten yuan from Cui Yufeng from her pocket, and handed it forward: "Old uncle, you see, I only have this money now. You must have no money in your pocket, right? When the time comes, they will dry the roots." If we leave it to you, we have no money to give to others at all."

"Yeah, that's a problem. I didn't expect it." Cui Wenwu scratched his scalp, thought for a while, and said, "Well, let them dig first and wait until they're all sold before giving them money."

"That's the only way to do it. But if this is the case, they will definitely feel that this matter is not sure, and they will become more and more boring to dig. I thought, how about giving them the ten yuan to buy something every day?" The food makes them feel that they will definitely be able to earn money, otherwise we would not be willing to spend this money, what do you think, old man?" Li Yan tried to be as straightforward as possible, so as not to make Cui Wenwu feel too abrupt.

In fact, Cui Wenwu did think that his niece was smart, but he didn't think too much about it.At that time, the 17-year-old boy in the countryside was still very stupid in his thinking, and the ways to expand his knowledge were relatively limited. Many families didn't even have a TV set at all, and there were almost no extracurricular reading materials except for some traditional comic books.It's not like later when science and technology developed, the information age came, and rebirth time travel novels flooded the sky and overwhelmed the Internet. People's minds and nerves are almost poisoned. If you meet a precocious child, you may think of this baby. Is it reborn?

Cui Wenwu was reaching the age when he was short of money, and suddenly he had an opportunity in front of him, so he really had all the energy to move forward.Even if there was such a trace of doubt, it was easily driven by the strong desire to make money, and it was easily thrown away, and subconsciously believed in the niece's plan to make money.

"Little girl really thinks a lot, but it makes sense, so do as you say. When it's time to dig, don't say you missed it." Cui Wenwu smiled and squeezed Li Yan's little Face, I'm afraid she's too young to give me some advice.

Li Yan turned her mouth away: "Old uncle, give it back to me, but your mouth is the most unreliable, even my grandma said that you have a loose mouth with cotton waistbands, as long as you don't say it, I will definitely not say it. "

"When did your grandma say that? Why don't I know?"

"Is it possible for you to hear bad things about you? Anyway, you know that it means you are not strict."

"Okay, can't I not say it? I don't even think about it. I still want to earn the dime difference. If I say it, I can still earn money. I'm not stupid."

Li Yan laughed happily, and walked back by the lapel of her uncle's clothes.

Before dark, Li Yan found an excuse to say that gymnastics was not up to San'er's standard, and asked her to give a demonstration.Xiao San'er was praised as being super enthusiastic and taught from beginning to end, breaking down each action one by one, that's called patience.

After repeating it twice, Li Yan felt that she was almost familiar, so she ran home for dinner.

Hair bone flower, scientific name Pulsatilla.Medicinal part: the dried root of Pulsatilla chinensis.Efficacy and indications: clearing heat and cooling blood, detoxification.Control heat-toxin bloody dysentery, warm abuse cold and heat, epistaxis, hemorrhoids.

Li Yan told her mother Cui Yufeng that it was an excuse to go to the county to buy and sell, because she knew that even if she told about medicinal materials, she would not believe it, and felt that it was not safe to rely on a child's words.In comparison, Li Wenwu is younger and more able to accept this risky-sounding way of making money.

In fact, it was Li Yan who made up the fact that her classmate's uncle was engaged in medicinal materials.The fact is that this upcoming May Day holiday, the school will allow students to work part-study, the goal is to dry the hairy bone flower roots.The prescribed amount is ten catties for each person under the third grade, and fifteen catties for each person in the fourth, fifth and sixth grades.

Under normal circumstances, most people cannot complete this amount, and the difference will be made up at a price of [-] cents per catty.As for the part of the school that a very small number of people overcomplete, the money will also be returned at this price.

The reason why Li Yan told Li Wenwu that she could give [-] cents per catty was her lowest estimate.It was only later that she learned that some medicinal materials purchasing merchants would reach a purchase agreement with the school in advance, and the school would assign tasks to the students, and after the holidays, they would collectively collect the medicinal materials and sell them to the medicinal materials merchants, so that the school could get a certain amount of income. As for the money The whereabouts of the school is nominally used for school construction, but it is not known where it is actually used.

The school priced this kind of medicinal material for the students at [-] cents, and the price the purchaser gave the school must be more than that. How much higher will be known only when the time comes to see the purchaser in person.Li Yan's plan is not to repurchase through the school. If he can really get a few thousand catties, which is about the same as the school's total, then he is fully capable of negotiating the price with the purchaser.This is a later story, and now the main thing is to dig more roots.

When Li Yan ran home, Li Wuchang was standing under the eaves with two gray rabbits in his hand, waiting for Wu Zhilan to get a woven bag to pack.

"Grandpa, are you strangling a rabbit?"

"Yeah, I just got off the set in the morning. When I came back, I took a look. Whoever thought about it would have two top things." Li Wuchang was very happy and satisfied with the harvest on the first day of going up the mountain.
