Era: Village bully, so what if he can't get a wife?
Chapter 67 My Battle with the Tiger
"Brother, I'll round it up for you. The tiger is 18,000! Seven ginseng roots are 12,000!!"
"Exactly thirty thousand!"
"That's all the money I have!"
Blackie spread his hands, his face full of sincerity.
Lin Feng thought to himself, "He really is someone from the city. To be able to pull out 30,000 yuan in one go, he must be a tough guy."
In 81, the average savings per person was only 52 yuan, and the average wage per person was just over 40 yuan!
Thirty thousand yuan is equivalent to nine million yuan today.
At that time, one could buy three courtyard houses in Beijing.
Of course, Lin Feng also knew that this price was not Blackie's limit.
When doing business, you have to leave some profit for others.
"Brother Hei, that's the deal! We'll go with this price."
"However, I need some industrial coupons, industrial fuel coupons, coal coupons, and electromechanical product coupons..."
Lin Feng rattled off more than a dozen names in one breath.
These are all essential items for building a porcelain kiln.
For example, the blowers used in porcelain kilns could only be purchased by using industrial tickets plus money and pulling strings.
The diesel fuel used in the blower requires an industrial fuel ticket.
You need coal coupons to buy coal.
Even if you have tickets, you can only buy them in the name of the village!
Even if you go to buy them, due to the shortage of supplies, you need to use connections and spend money to get them.
Therefore, in the early 80s, making money in business was not only a matter of policy, but also a matter of resource scarcity.
State-owned enterprises are scrambling for electricity and coal; why should they give them to you?
Lin Feng needs a lot of votes, which puts Blackie in a difficult position, as he is not omnipotent.
"Bro, these tickets you wanted are a bit tricky to get!"
"There are many, but I need connections to get them."
Lin Feng didn't waste any words, holding up one finger, "Here's two thousand yuan for your service!"
"If you can get me what I need, you can take 10%."
Upon hearing this, Blackie's eyes lit up again.
Although he mingled on the streets, he controlled a large portion of the black market and underground transactions in Linjiang County.
Behind every transaction lies a vast network of relationships, bound together by shared interests.
Given sufficient benefits, the potential for growth is enormous.
That is, he encountered two mentally ill people, Su Qiuxin and Lin Feng.
They're trying to kill people right from the start! Who would dare play that game?! Only the most reckless would dare to do it!
"Okay! Haha, brother, just give me a list, and there's nothing I can't handle!"
The two, each with their own ulterior motives, discussed the matter for over an hour.
Lin Feng left with 10,000 yuan in his pocket.
The remaining 20,000 yuan needs to be used to purchase essential items for firing porcelain, such as blowers, ball mills, clay mixers, coal, etc.!
Before leaving, Lin Feng also stated that he would not rule out the use of equipment discarded by state-owned factories.
In this era, there were basically no channels to dispose of those obsolete devices.
Private individuals simply won't buy it; even if they did, it would be useless without the technology.
Other state-owned factories in the same industry have also eliminated a large number of their factories.
They're just going to gather dust in the warehouse!
If Blackie has the skills, he can even get scrap metal prices.
A win-win situation! Lin Feng saved himself trouble, and Blackie made money.
Besides, with the two boxes of treasures in the tiger's cave, he didn't care about this little bit of money.
......
Before noon, Lin Feng had already returned to the remote mountain village.
Having received the information, Lin Laowu and his companions waited in the courtyard early on.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Lin Feng return safely.
Well, except for Su Xiahe, who was so angry that she saw everything.
"You're back! Go wash up quickly!"
"I made something delicious for lunch!"
Su Qiuxin took the donkey cart, smiling brightly.
Su Xiahe snorted coldly and walked into the kitchen, ignoring Lin Feng.
The Lin family stood up with a smile, grabbed Lin Feng's arm, and asked him about what happened when he was alone in the woods.
Lin Feng told about the tiger, but kept the details of what happened in the tiger's cave a secret.
It's not that I don't care about Lin Laowu's family, but wealth is tempting, and testing people's hearts is the most foolish thing to do!
"Wow! A tiger! Brother Feng, you really hunted a tiger!?" Lin Xi and his brothers exclaimed in surprise.
"Of course it's true. I fought the striped tiger for three hundred rounds all by myself, with just a knife."
"Holy crap, Feng is awesome!"
"Yes, in all these years, I've only seen a tiger once, and even that was just a glimpse from afar. I was so scared I almost peed my pants."
"Brother Feng, take us tiger hunting again next time!"
......
"Sure! Sure! Next time, I'll show you what it means to catch a tiger with one hand!"
Just as Lin Feng was about to start bragging, his second senior brother came over and gave him a disdainful look.
Lin Feng immediately flew into a rage, "What! You're not convinced?!"
"Believe it or not, I'll fight you for three hundred rounds!"
"Hmph! Hmph!"
Just as the man and the pig were about to start fighting, Brigitte Lin walked in carrying food.
"Eat first! Stop bullying your second senior brother."
"If he's not happy, he needs to be taught a lesson!" Lin Feng glared at his second senior brother, then got up to wash his hands.
After lunch, Su Qiuxin gave Lin Feng the money she earned from selling meat that day.
After deducting the 500 yuan spent that day, there's still 6,000 yuan left!
Without wasting any words, Lin Feng took out three thousand yuan and gave it to Lin Laowu.
Lin Laowu dared not accept it.
"That won't do! We were able to hunt so much prey and find the ginseng all thanks to Second Brother!"
"We didn't put in much effort, so we can't ask for money!"
At this moment, the second brother perked up again, raising his head high with a smug look on his pig face.
His small eyes kept glancing at Lin Feng.
The meaning is clear: it contributed the most! It's a hero!
This made Su Qiuxin and Su Xiahe burst into laughter.
Lin Feng couldn't stand it and kicked him several times.
"Damn it, there can't be anyone in this house who's better than me... well, even a pig."
The man and the pig started fooling around again, and laughter filled the air.
After arguing for a while, Lin Laowu sat down again, finished a pipe of cigarettes, and spoke seriously.
"Xiaofeng, we didn't go home after we finished processing the game that day."
"We delivered the pre-arranged wild deer, several pheasants, and rabbits to the production brigade!"
"Lin Mancang and Lin Zhiqiang looked very unwell."
"They're openly and secretly complaining that there aren't enough prey!"
"If you come back, they'll probably be looking for you."
Lin Feng waved his hand, not minding at all, and spoke with a smile.
"It's alright! They wouldn't dare do anything to me now."
"They're even counting on me to build them a brick kiln!"
Lin Laowu squinted and pondered for a while, then looked up at Lin Feng, who seemed confident.
"It's good that you have an idea, but don't let yourself get taken advantage of!"
The five Lin brothers were completely confused.
Lin Xi, who couldn't keep anything to herself, frowned and said.
"Didn't we plan to build our own kiln? How did it become something they're building for?"
"Build it for them? We'll spend money to build it for the village? What's in it for us?"
Lin Feng smiled mysteriously, "You'll find out then!"
"Lin Mancang has been the village secretary for more than ten years, and he is not so easy to deal with."
Lin Xi wanted to ask more questions, but Lin Laowu hit her on the head with a pipe.
"With your brain, why are you asking such nonsense? Just listen to Xiaofeng."
Lin Xi could only sit down dejectedly, muttering, "Sister-in-law, the new clothes you bought me are covered in cigarette ash."
"What did you say?!" Lin Laowu glared.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi turned around and ran away, shouting, "I knew it!"
"You...you wait until you get home! I'll beat you to death!"
Lin Qingxia laughed so hard she bent over again at the sight of Su Qiuxin and Su Xiahe.
