So, he asked in a somewhat stiff tone, "Didn't we agree on this? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
Zhou Rong knew Feng Huacheng was angry, so she quickly tried to persuade him, "Don't be angry, I just received a letter from my neighbor, she said as long as we really love each other, my parents will definitely agree.
We just need to show our sincerity and gain their approval, rather than getting married first and forcing them to approve of our marriage.
He also said that a marriage without the blessing of family members is doomed to be unhappy, and you don’t want our marriage to be unhappy, do you?
Feng Huacheng didn't expect this to happen, so he asked unwillingly, "Didn't your neighbor write to you before? Why did you suddenly mention this? Could it be that your mother wanted to use this method to delay us?"
Zhou Rong was stunned for a moment. She wasn't really sure that it was her mother who asked her to write it, but she had been influenced by Wang Yue's thoughts, so she said hesitantly, "No way? But if it was really my mother who asked my neighbor to do this, doesn't that mean that there is still hope that my mother will forgive me?"
After all, Feng Huacheng was only a half-baked poet, and his mind was not so meticulous, so he didn't expect to get himself into trouble.
He knew that he would not be able to get married for a while, which made him feel unwilling.
However, as long as Zhou Rong was still here, they would be able to get married sooner or later, so he forced himself to calm down.
So he quickly said sincerely, "You have come to Guizhou for me. I just want to use marriage to express my loyalty to love. Since you think you can wait for a while, I will wait with you."
Zhou Rong was so moved that tears came to her eyes after hearing this. She quickly said, "Don't worry, I'll write a few more letters to my brother and my younger brother recently, asking them to help say more good things to my parents. Oh, and my neighbor, our two families are next to each other, so you can ask his mother to help persuade them."
Feng Huacheng originally wanted Zhou Rong to stop writing to Wang Yue. He was worried that the more he communicated with Wang Yue, the more affected he would be. But after listening to the second half of Zhou Rong's words, he felt that it seemed to be true, so he didn't say anything.
……
Wang Yue didn't know what Zhou Rong would do after receiving his letter, but he was busy preparing for marriage. However, if he wanted to get married, he needed to solve the housing problem.
The current layout of the educated youth site is simply not suitable for two people to get married. Considering that they will need to live in that village for at least eight or nine years, he feels that the housing problem must be solved.
The old village chief had known for a long time that Wang Yue was going to marry Zheng Juan, but there were really no other abandoned houses in the village, so if they wanted to get married they could only build a house.
Although we are now in an era where we earn work points together, each family’s house is not built with collective help, and each family has to pay for it with their own money.
If you want to build a house, an adobe house costs less than fifty yuan, and a brick house is about 100 yuan. For a three-room house like the one at their youth educated camp, two adobe houses would cost a little over yuan, and a brick house with a courtyard wall would probably cost over yuan.
Although Wang Yue's parents are both working, they cannot come up with so much money at once. After all, the house they have in Photon Film has only been built for a few years.
It is equivalent to building a new house just a few years after they paid off their old debt. Most families really cannot afford it.
Of course, the most important thing is that we will have to move back to the city in the future. It is not appropriate to build it in the countryside, and it will be a waste if it is not done well.
So Wang Yue’s parents suggested building two adobe houses that would be big enough for two people to live in.
After all, in their opinion, going to the countryside would only last for two or three years at most. Instead of throwing so much money into the village, it would be better to buy some furniture and bring it back.
But Wang Yue knew that he might have to stay there for about ten years, so he had to make himself comfortable.
Wang Yue hesitated for a moment and did not continue to ask his parents for money. He planned to do some business in the black market, so that he could earn some money, at least to buy the house.
But what's the point of making money?
Wang Yue knew quite a few prescriptions, but those things were useless now and no one would buy them.
He hesitated for a long time, but decided to go to the black market to see what could make money in this era.
Zheng Juan originally disagreed. She was not good at expressing her emotions. She just grabbed Wang Yue's arm with her little hand and said worriedly, "Can't we not go? It's too dangerous!"
Wang Yue was almost persuaded by this gentle look, but he was immediately motivated.
He turned around and held Zheng Juan's hand, and said very seriously, "Now things are getting more and more serious, and we don't know how many years we will stay here, so if we want to get married, we must have a house.
I also know that doing business in the black market is dangerous, but my requirements are not high. I will stop as long as I make enough money to buy a house. What do you think?"
Seeing that Wang Yue still wanted to insist, Zheng Juan said with some embarrassment, "But if you get caught, you might end up in jail."
Wang Yue couldn't help but smile, then waved his fist and said proudly, "You also know how agile I am. If I want to run away by myself, isn't it easy? If it really doesn't work, you can sew a hat for me that only shows my eyes, so that no one will know who I am."
After listening to Wang Yue's description and imagining that kind of hat, Zheng Juan couldn't help but laugh.
But after she laughed, she couldn't stop Wang Yue, so she could only remind Wang Yue, "Then you should be more careful. It's better to make money slowly, but you must ensure your own safety."
Wang Yue nodded quickly, and then pretended to be very helpless and said, "I'll go around first. If I can't find a suitable business, maybe our wedding will have to be postponed."
Zheng Juan shook her head and said nonchalantly, "Didn't you persuade your childhood sweetheart Zhou Rong? As long as we are still together, it's okay to get married later."
Wang Yue didn't expect that he would end up getting in trouble by helping Cai Xiaoguang to deceive Zhou Rong. He quickly changed the subject and said, "What's wrong? Are you jealous?"
Zheng Juan couldn't help but blush, she avoided the question and said, "I'm not jealous, I'm not worthy of you, your childhood sweetheart is more suitable for you.
I can’t even imagine what my family would be like without your help.”
She had had a nightmare more than once. In the dream, Wang Yue was not there to help her, and because she was worried about her family, she did not go to the countryside to work as an educated youth.
As a result, the street did not assign her a job, and she could only rely on paper boxes to subsidize her life. Her family was so poor that in winter, she didn't even have a pair of clean pants.
Therefore, she especially cherishes her current life. Not only does she have a considerate and caring boyfriend, but her mother also has a job, and the family has suddenly gotten out of the predicament.
Chapter 142 Black Market!
Jichun, the black market in the north of the city,
The black market is certainly not a market held in the dark, but a market that is not seen in the light.
The market in the north of the city is located in a network of criss-crossing alleys, and its location is uncertain.
People who do business here are sneaky in everything they do, like vigilant mice ready to escape at any time.
Just like the small vendors in today's society, they are wary of the urban management officers who may appear at any time.
Wang Yue took a rough walk around here and, with his keen intuition, discovered that many people seemed to be strolling around, but all had their own trading purposes.
Some people sold their meat coupons and industrial coupons, then bought some grain coupons to buy miscellaneous grains and go home to fill their stomachs.
Some people have money and food coupons, but cannot buy industrial coupons or other coupons, so they will spend a lot of money to buy them.
However, most of the businesses are related to grain. Of course, except for a part of them who actually take grain, most of them just want to exchange for grain coupons.
After observing it, Wang Yue felt that he could resell some grain and make some profit from the difference.
He knew that Cai Xiaoguang had acquaintances who could allow him to buy grain with just money, so he could sell it for a lot of money.
Wang Yue had already figured out how to do business, and had originally planned to walk around a bit to confirm which business to do. However, he didn't expect to see Shui Ziliu and others in the alley by chance. In order not to attract their attention, he left temporarily.
……
Jichun Machinery Factory
When Cai Xiaoguang heard the guard say that his old classmate was looking for him, he guessed it was Wang Yue, so he quickly asked the guard to let the person in.
When he saw Wang Yue, he first poured a glass of water for Wang Yue, and then said enthusiastically, "Wang Yue, your method is really effective. Zhou Rong is not in a hurry to get married now, and she keeps urging Bingkun to help speak well of her.
I have to thank you. It seems that Zhou Rong and I may still have a chance. You have to keep up the good work."
Wang Yue looked at Cai Xiaoguang's excited expression and wanted to say that he could only stop Zhou Rong temporarily and it was impossible to dissuade him all the time.
But Cai Xiaoguang was very happy at the moment, and Wang Yue also wanted to take the opportunity to do something of his own, so he pretended to be helpless and said, "Then I wish you good luck. I just hope that Zhou's father and mother will forgive Zhou Rong later, and I will write a few more letters."
After hearing what Wang Yue said, Cai Xiaoguang hesitated and said, "This is not good either. Zhou Rong will be very miserable."
Wang Yue had a frown on his face. He knew that even if he talked to Cai Xiaoguang about Zhou Rong for three days and three nights, the guy would not get annoyed. He didn't have that much to do.
So, he frowned and said, "I will do my best for Zhou Rong's matter. Xiaoguang, I beg you to do something for me."
Cai Xiaoguang was stunned for a moment, and could only stop talking helplessly. His IQ instantly took over. He looked at Wang Yue with clever eyes and asked uncertainly, "What's the matter? Just tell me, I will definitely help if I can."
Wang Yue didn't beat around the bush and said seriously, "I want to get married, but I don't have enough money, so I want to sell some things to make money. Can you introduce me to someone in the flour mill? I want to buy some cheap rice and noodles and resell them."
Cai Xiaoguang was startled. He understood what Wang Yue wanted to do, so he quickly looked outside and said in shock, "Why do you want to do this? If you catch us, we're done for."
Wang Yue saw that Cai Xiaoguang was very worried about him, so he shrugged helplessly, "I don't want to either. I've asked around. To build a house in the village, even if it's made of mud bricks, it'll cost at least 100 yuan. I want to build a brick house, so it'll cost about 300 yuan, right? Otherwise, can you lend me some money?"
Cai Xiaoguang rolled his eyes at Wang Yue and said unhappily, "I can lend you thirty or fifty yuan right now, but you want three hundred yuan directly. How can I have so much money?"
Wang Yue knew that he couldn't borrow money, so he pretended to be pitiful and said, "So, I have to use the little money I have to try to make money. Otherwise, can you think of a way for me?"
Cai Xiaoguang hesitated for a long time, and then said awkwardly, "It's harder for you to ask me to recommend you a job than this. This is like handing someone a favor."
Wang Yue felt that it was almost time to get to the point, so he asked tentatively, "Xiaoguang, how about this? Don't say it's cheap, just introduce me to someone who can buy unlimited quantities as long as I have the rice and flour coupons. Of course, if I can buy a small amount, I don't need coupons, that's fine too."
Seeing that Wang Yue had made up his mind, Cai Xiaoguang said helplessly, "Since you said so, I will introduce one to you, but you don't have a ticket, so you can't buy much."
Wang Yue was not a greedy person, so he quickly assured her, "Don't worry, I will definitely not let you make any mistakes."
Cai Xiaoguang knew that Wang Yue was always reliable, so he chose to believe in Wang Yue in his heart.
He immediately gave some instructions and took Wang Yue to meet Li Xun, the director of the flour mill, and then left without staying there for long.
After Cai Xiaoguang left, Li Xun asked tentatively, "Wang Yue, right? What is your relationship with Cai Xiaoguang?"
Wang Yue looked at Li Xun's expectant eyes and knew that this was someone who wanted to establish a relationship with Cai Xiaoguang, so he pretended to be very enthusiastic and said, "Xiaoguang and I are classmates and we have a very good relationship. Otherwise, why would he introduce me to you?"
After hearing what Wang Yue said, Director Li immediately became enthusiastic. He asked happily, "How much rice and flour do you want to buy? I'll ask them to arrange it for you right away."
Wang Yue waved his hands quickly, pretending to be very uneasy and said, "I have money, but no tickets. I just came to ask Brother Li to take some food that doesn't require tickets. When I find the tickets, I will come back to buy better rice and flour."
Seeing Wang Yue say this, Director Li was stunned for a moment, and then asked uncertainly, "Are you sure you can get the ticket? If not, you can buy less flour each time and don't need the ticket."
Wang Yue was in a dilemma. How long would it take him to earn enough to buy a house with just the food he had?
So, he said embarrassedly, "I have thought of a way, but it will take longer."
Director Li immediately understood what Wang Yue was thinking. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you planning to do this for a long time?"
Wang Yue quickly shook his head and said firmly, "Xiaoguang is my buddy, and you are his friend, so I can't cheat you.
I just needed money to get married, so I wanted to save some money to build a house for my wedding in the place where I worked as an educated youth. "
Director Li saw that Wang Yue was not being polite to him. He thought about it carefully and said seriously, "I don't think you can make much money from this. It's easy to get into trouble if you always carry grain to the black market. Why don't you just trade the bills?"
Wang Yue didn't expect that Director Li would tell him this idea, so he asked curiously, "Director, what do you think is the solution?"
Director Li looked around and closed the door of his office. Then he said seriously, "It's like this. Our bills are counted and submitted once a month. Other factories do the same.
I got news from other factories that they also set aside some tickets and let their friends sell them to exchange for tickets.
Of course, when we need to check the tickets at the end of the month, you have to find a way to get me the full amount.
You know what I mean? "
Wang Yue understood it immediately. It meant that he could just go and sell the food coupons directly. He would not touch the actual food, but would only exchange the coupons for others. This way, even if he saw someone, it would be easier for him to run away and it would be relatively safer.
However, Wang Yue also understood that this was probably Director Li's way. He had already started to do so, but Director Li didn't mind having Wang Yue to help him make money.
If it weren't for Cai Xiaoguang's help in introducing this opportunity, Wang Yue might not have gotten it.
Wang Yue quickly agreed and thanked Gai sincerely. He discussed the time of dividend distribution and ticket repayment with Director Li and prepared to start doing so.
……
In fact, reselling tickets in this way is really profitable, because everyone who goes to the night market to resell tickets wants to complete the transaction quickly.
If the bills can be bought and sold quickly, and then used to buy food, why would people exchange them directly for food, and they would be easily caught by patrols?
Although Wang Yue has never been a policeman, he has been in the underworld and has some observation skills. He has not been to the black market, but through observation here, he can tell who wants to exchange food coupons or food in the black market.
It was precisely because of this ability to observe people's words and expressions that he only spent half a day, and by the time he returned to the village, he had earned more than 20 yuan, and even had a lot of various bills in his hands.
Wangjiatun, Youth League Center
Liu Hui and Zheng Juan had developed feelings for each other. When Zheng Juan was cooking, Liu Hui asked hesitantly, "Juanzi, after you get married, are you going to move out?"
Zheng Juan didn't stop her movements and said nonchalantly, "If you want, we can still have dinner together, but we won't sleep together at night."
Liu Hui hesitated for a moment after seeing Zheng Juan say that, and then asked seriously, "Are you planning to build a house? Have you chosen a place?"
Zheng Juan thought of Wang Yue's plan and said helplessly, "I've talked to the village chief and he plans to set up a separate yard on the vacant land next to our educated youth site, so you don't have to worry about food."
When Liu Hui saw Zheng Juan frowning, she thought of her, Jia Ming and Xu Zhiqiang's guesses, and asked uncertainly, "Sister Juanzi, is the money you have for building the house not enough?"
Zheng Juan didn't expect that Liu Hui, such an innocent girl, could actually see it, so she said without hiding anything, "Yes, Wang Yue is busy with this matter."
Seeing that Zheng Juan did not hide her intention, Liu Hui was very happy. She looked around, then quickly took out a handkerchief from her pocket and stuffed it into Zheng Juan's pocket.
Chapter 143: One brother, three gangs!
Liu Hui met Zheng Juan's surprised eyes and said in a low voice a little embarrassedly, "My parents left me this much money, and I've spent it. I don't need it for now, so you guys can use it first."
Zheng Juan paused as she was stirring. She didn't expect that her friend, whom she had only known for less than a year, would take out all his belongings just to allow her to get married smoothly.
She didn't expect that after following Wang Yue to the village, she would meet only good people. She was very moved, her eyes reddened, and she said anxiously, "No, you..."
