Back to 1978: Getting rich starts with treasure hunting

Chapter 232 The affected pond fish

On the first day of setting up the stall, the goods were almost sold out by around 1:00 p.m.

Lin Shu invited everyone to have a meal together and then returned to the hotel to rest.

"Sister-in-law, if you two are not in a hurry to go back and rest, come and help me sort out these tickets."

When I left, the two black bags were filled with accessories, and when I came back, they were filled with a pile of money.

"Okay, we don't have the habit of taking a nap. Dabao has fallen asleep, so you can put him on the bed." Li Wan helped to untie Dabao and put him on the bed so that he could lie more comfortably.

The little guy was sleeping soundly on the bed, his little belly swelling up with his breathing. He was so cute.

After covering his belly with a towel, the three of them sat around the table and prepared to sort out the loose change they had earned that day.

After selling for a whole morning, those who bought in bulk usually gave large amounts of money, while some individual customers mostly gave small amounts.

Lin Gang and Li Wan both have experience in sorting out banknotes. They set up stalls in the provincial capital and every night after dinner, they would have a happy time sorting out and counting the banknotes.

First, they sorted out the whole Big Unity notes, and then cleaned up the change, sorting the amounts from large to small. One hundred Big Unity notes were tied together into a stack with rubber bands, and soon the three of them had sorted out all the money for today.

At last count, there were eight groups of the Great Unity Army, and the remaining two groups were from workers, peasants and soldiers.

"Little sister, here are ten bundles, which is nine thousand yuan in total. Adding these changes, it's almost a little over ten thousand, but less than eleven thousand."

"Lin Shu, is it so profitable to set up a jewelry stall? You earned more than 10,000 yuan in just this morning?" Lin Gang was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.

Lin Shu smiled and placed a bunch of workers, peasants and soldiers in front of them: "This bunch is a reward for the two of you. Thank you for your hard work in helping to set up the stall today."

Lin was about to reach out to take the money, but was stopped by Li Wan who patted him on the shoulder.

"Little sister, it's our duty as a family to help. You don't have to pay us."

"Brothers should settle accounts clearly. This money is what you deserve, so take it." When Lin Shu asks people to do something, she will definitely pay them if they make money. She doesn't have the habit of letting people work for free.

Lin Gang picked up the money and said with a smile, "You are right. Brothers should settle accounts clearly. Only in this way can brothers and sisters have long-term relations. We will accept the money. Thank you, Mr. Lin, for your generosity."

"Gangzi you!" Li Wan glared at him in dissatisfaction.

"Oh, my wife, don't underestimate Lin Shu. She is more capable of making money than both of us combined. Today is just a small test for her. There will be many more opportunities to make money in the future. Do you have to be polite to her every time?"

As he spoke, Lin Gang threw the money and said, "We can only feel at ease if we take this money from her. Don't worry, she made a lot of money today, 10,000 yuan."

Lin Shu rolled his eyes at him. "How can you earn 10,000 yuan and get back more than 10,000 yuan? There are thousands of yuan in costs."

This kid thought he was picking up money, but he made more than ten thousand a day.

"Not ten thousand, but five or six thousand." How could Lin Gang not know the cost.

Before leaving, he looked at the purchase price, and her purchase cost was about 5,000 yuan.

Lin Shu did not refute. He counted out twenty Great Unity notes and handed them to Lin Gang. "Please give these two hundred yuan to Xiaohui and Xiaoliu. They also helped today. One hundred yuan each is their reward."

Lin had just been setting up the stall for a few months and knew that making money was not easy. When he saw Lin Shu throw out 20 big unity notes, he said reluctantly, "They only helped for the whole morning. There's no need to give them so much, right?"

Don’t you know that the average worker’s salary these days is only 20 or 30 yuan a month?

Only give them a hundred for half a morning, don't whet their appetite.

"Give it to me when I ask you to. Don't look like you're hurting. You should be willing to spend money on your brothers. Don't be stingy."

Lin Shu insisted on giving each person 100 yuan. Money in Guangdong Province is easy to make as long as you have connections, but you also need a team.

Going it alone is usually prone to failure.

......

Xiaohui and Xiaoliu looked at the stack of money thrown in front of them and looked at Lin Gang in confusion.

"Don't look at me like that, both of you. This is not my money. It's the reward given to you by your CEO Lin. Thank you for your hard work this morning."

Xiaohui and Xiaoliu looked at each other.

Finally, Xiao Hui picked up the money and counted it, then asked with some embarrassment: "Gangzi, we only helped out for half a day this morning, isn't this too much for Mr. Lin?"

This amount of money is almost two months’ salary for them.

You don’t know that they only get paid 40 yuan a month working under Mr. Chen.

"I asked this for you, and she said that she gave it to you, so just take it, don't feel burdened." Lin Gang waved his hand at them, "I won't say any more to you, I have to go back and take a shower and rest for a while."

After the room was closed, Xiao Liu picked up the money thrown on his bed and counted it. "Xiao Hui, mine is also one hundred. What do you think Mr. Lin means by this?"

Xiao Hui put the money in his pocket, thought for a moment and said, "It should be a reward for our hard work. Since she is so generous and righteous, we should work harder tomorrow and put her interests first."

Xiao Liu felt more at ease after hearing his words. "Hearing what you said, I feel more confident. Otherwise, I would be nervous after taking the money."

Lin Shu didn't know what the two were thinking. The next day, they were obviously more active. At least as for the bags of goods, they both rushed to carry them without Lin Shu asking.

When they finished breakfast and arrived at the place where they had set up their stall yesterday, there were already several people waiting there.

"Boss, you are late. We have been waiting here for a while."

Lin Gang smiled apologetically: "Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. We basically come here at this time every day. Next time, you can come at a time you estimate, and you won't have to wait."

Several people spread out the flannel cloth and took out some of the goods and put them on the table.

Lin Shu smiled and asked the dark and thin man who was selecting jewelry in front of him, "From your accent, it seems that you are a local. Where are you going to sell the goods you bought from me?"

The dark and thin man put the accessories he had selected into the basket and replied, "We noticed you yesterday. Seeing that your business was so good, we thought of buying some goods from you today and selling them in other markets. If the business is good, we will continue tomorrow."

"Wow, you guys are really business-savvy. You came up with such a great idea in just one night."

The dark and thin man felt a little embarrassed to be praised, "Who told you that your business is so eye-catching? It was hard not to notice it yesterday."

Especially those people who purchase goods in the dozens or hundreds, or even hundreds, who wouldn’t be envious.

He does business by carrying money in his pockets, while these outsiders carry money in canvas bags. That's the difference.

If their funds were not limited, he would have wanted to buy two cloth bags so that he could use the canvas bags to carry the money after selling them.

If Lin Shu is a second-hand dealer, then they are third-hand dealers. They can't make as much money as they did yesterday with two bags of goods.

"Come and see, someone is selling fake goods here, selling fake goods to cheat people out of their money!"

This loud voice startled all the vendors nearby.

Lin Shu held Dabao in his arms and looked at the stall a few meters away. It was a street stall, and the stall owner had placed many old items on it.

The loud voice just now must have been cheated and came back to cause trouble.

Lin Gang trotted over to see what was going on, and came back a few minutes later. "Yesterday, that lady spent a thousand yuan to buy a bowl at that stall. When she got home, she found out it was fake, so she came here to cause trouble today."

Li Wan was shocked and asked, "What kind of bowl can be sold for a thousand yuan?"

"It's said to be from the Tang Dynasty. I wouldn't buy it even if it's ten dollars." Lin Gang and Li Wan had the same idea.

Lin Shu looked over at the quarrel. The aunt had brought three or four people with her today. It seemed that she was someone who could not afford to lose.

Buying old items is like finding a bargain.

If you pick up the right one, you win. If you pick up the wrong one, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck.

Maybe the stall owner didn't expect to encounter an unreasonable old lady who directly overturned his stall.

[System, are there any authentic old items on his stall? ]

[Host, this system is a herb collection system, not an identification system. You asked the wrong system. Also, this system has to remind you that you have been slacking off recently. It has been a long time since you went up the mountain to collect herbs.]

[You should know how busy I am during this period. I have to take care of the children and the store. How can I have time to go up the mountain? ]

[Host, slacking off is slacking off, don't make excuses. This system reminds you that now that the map has changed, there are many medicinal herbs unique to the south, you can find an opportunity to replenish them. ]

[I just wanted you to help me identify it. Don't take it too seriously.]

Lin Shu felt guilty. She hadn't been up the mountain for a long time.

system:【......】

Lin Shu didn't hear any response from the system, so he turned his attention back to the quarrel over there.

Now the quarrel has escalated and the two sides have started to have physical contact, with you pushing me and I pushing you.

"The money you swindled from me yesterday was my mother's pension money. You have no conscience and you even swindled an old lady's pension money. I'm here to make a statement today. If you don't return the money, I'll see you at the police station."

"Oh, fuck your mother! If you can't afford to lose, why would you go to the antique market?"

"You bastard, I'm going to beat you to death today!"

The aunt's son punched the stall owner, and a fight was about to break out at this moment.

The stall owner felt a pain on his face and two streams of hot blood flowed out. He reached out to wipe it and his palm was covered in blood.

See blood.

Any man with blood in his veins will fight back.

The stall owner called over the surrounding stall owners, who must be good friends, and they all gathered around to help, making the scene even more chaotic.

When Lin Shu saw that things were not going well, he quickly asked Xiao Hui and Xiao Liu to pack up their stalls and put all the accessories into bags to prevent passers-by from stealing them.

Li Wan was anxious when she saw Lin Gang surrounding her. She shouted at him, "Lin Gang, come back quickly! Come back!"

Why do you want to join in when others are fighting?

After a while, the original beating turned into an escape.

The situation took a turn for the worse, and Lin Gang, who had come to watch the excitement, was nearly knocked down on the curb by the crowd.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

"Wow, the knife is used!"

The onlookers moved out of the way in time and escaped the disaster.

Passersby who did not dodge in time were affected, some were knocked to the ground, and some were kicked.

Lin Shu noticed that the stall owner was holding a knife, and the person who escaped should be from the aunt's side.

The reason for the knife fight was that the people on the aunt's side robbed the stall owner's purse.

Seeing that the man dared to rob his money, the stall owner immediately drew his knife. Seeing that he could not catch up with the man who snatched the bag and ran away, the stall owner got anxious and the kitchen knife slipped out of his hand.

It came towards Lin Shu and the others like lightning, and she was so scared that she quickly pulled Li Wan down and hid under the table.

The kitchen knife fell to the ground not far from them with a clang.

It even scared the passers-by around and made them scream in fear!

Not long after, the stall owner ran up, picked up the kitchen knife, and chased after him.

Suddenly, this scene appeared on the road: a man was running desperately in front, and a man was chasing him desperately with a knife behind.

At the end, there were a few people led by an aunt and the stall owner’s friends chasing after them.

He ran and shouted, alarming all the passers-by on the road. Many of them stopped to watch without knowing what was going on.

"Everything should be okay now, right?" Li Wan was really scared. Everyone ran away and she squatted under the table, not daring to go out.

Lin Shu held Dabao in one hand and patted her hand with the other, "Go out, it should be fine."

"Mr. Lin, are you okay?" Xiaohui walked over, dragging a young man.

Xiao Liu followed behind him, and he also dragged two people with him.

"It's okay, what are you doing?" Lin Shu looked at the man they dragged over.

These people should be the vendors who were selecting goods in front of the stall just now.

"They loaded our goods but haven't paid yet. I was afraid they would run away in the chaos, so I grabbed them," Xiaohui replied.

"Young man, you misunderstood. We do business with integrity. How could we take the goods and run away without paying?" One of the men hurriedly denied it.

Xiaohui loosened his grip, "Okay, in that case, you should pay quickly, and we won't delay you from doing business earlier."

"Okay, okay, pay, pay."

Several vendors paid and took their goods away. Xiaohui asked, "Boss Lin, are we still going to set up the stall?"

Today's goods have not been sold out yet, so he means to continue setting up the stall and clear out the goods before going back.

Lin Shu looked at the table where the red velvet had been taken away during the chaos and now there was nothing on it, "Set it up."

Li Wan looked around for Lin Gang and found him still sitting on the curb. "Why don't you come over to help? Why are you sitting there?"

Lin Shu looked over and saw Lin Gang standing up with a sad face, one hand protecting the other, "Wanwan, my hand is scratched and bleeding."

Li Wan's heart tightened when she heard this, "Why are you so careless? Is it serious? Come here and let me see."

Lin Shu walked over holding Dabao. Lin Gang's palm was scratched and there was a lot of sand embedded in the wound. It was bloody and looked scary.

Seeing that his palm injury was not serious, Lin Shu said unhappily, "You deserve it! Let's see if you will join in the fun next time. You are more gossipy than us women."

Xiaohui also saw the wound: "Boss Lin, let Gangzi go to the hospital to treat the wound first. If it is not treated, I am afraid the wound will become inflamed."

"Okay, you and Xiao Liu can manage the stall here for a while, right?"

"We two can handle it, so leave it to us." Xiaohui nodded and agreed.

Lin Shu nodded and asked Lin Gang and Li Wan to follow. If she remembered correctly, there was a staff hospital not far from here.

Li Wan blew on his palm distressedly, and seeing him grimacing in pain as he walked, she asked, "Does it hurt a lot?"

"It hurts so much." Lin Gang had a painful look on his face, but he complained, "You said this person is so unlucky that even drinking cold water will get his teeth stuck. I just wanted to understand the situation of their quarrel, but I didn't expect them to fight.

Just do it, I didn't expect them to resort to knife tactics. It's true that when the turtle is down, the shell is also with it, and I am the innocent victim! "

"Okay, okay, let's go to the hospital right away to treat the wound and it will stop hurting." Li Wan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry and hurried to comfort him.
