My 1979

During dinner in the evening, Liu Laosi kept urging him to drink. He was afraid that if Li He was not careful, he would teach Li Long a lesson on the spot. Otherwise, he would not be able to behave inside and outside, and he would be ruined no matter what. reputation.

What's more, it will be impossible to get along with Li Long from now on.

However, Li He didn't say anything from beginning to end. He just chatted with a few people about family matters.

In this way, Liu Laosi breathed a sigh of relief.

Li He probably had a hidden thought in his heart and wanted to drink some boring wine. There was no need for Liu Laosi and Li Long to raise the glasses. He drank one glass after another, and a pound of liquor went down like that.

When I went to bed, I took a pot of hot water from the stove and soaked my feet. No matter how much he drank, he was not so confused that he asked his sister-in-law to get him water for his feet.

After washing my feet, I fell asleep in a side bed that had been laid out long ago.

We got together early and saw that Li Long was going to the scrap station, so he suggested that we go and have a look together.

Li Long said, "I'll go check the account and be back in a moment."

After his scale grew, like Liu Laosi, the waste station hired four people to specialize in sorting and packaging garbage. He did not necessarily need to go there in person every day. He only needed to manage the accounts and schedule transportation to and from the provincial capital. Can.

There are different recycling manufacturers for scrap plastic, scrap copper, and scrap iron. These manufacturers must be contacted and dispatched in person. Neither he nor Liu Laosi is stupid enough to hand over customer resources to others.

Li He ignored him, got on the back seat of the motorcycle, and urged, "It's mainly because I want to buy something on the way and go to He's house later."

"Then take a seat." Li Long thought about it, this is really what happened. Several people had already agreed to go to He's house last night.

"Ride slowly." The car sped out suddenly, startling Li He, "The road is slippery, be careful."

Not far away, Li He smelled the peculiar smell coming from the waste station. It was still winter.

The nearby wasteland was rented by Li Long. It was a large area that looked like an abrupt hill, with messy waste piled on the ground covered with cinder ash.

The list of scrap stations is very wide in terms of classification. There are special scrap iron stations, non-ferrous metal stations, waste paper stations, waste plastic stations, or household appliance stations.

But here in Li Long, everything is complete, including waste paper, plastic, iron blocks, and all kinds of mess.

Li He walked around in a circle, not specifically going to the right corner. He just casually lifted the raincloth, looking here and knocking there.

It's rare to find an old TV set. These days, no one is willing to throw away home appliances. Even if there is something broken, they will repair it and turn it into a second-hand one.

He said to Li Long, "In the future, when you encounter things like refrigerators and washing machines, you have to take them apart and sell them. Only by taking them apart and selling them can you make money."

Li Long laughed at Li He's ignorance, "You won't find many of these things in a hundred years. Why don't you dismantle them? If someone gives them to you, just take them. Save a few more, find someone to repair them, and sell them second-hand." .”

"I mean in the future." In just a few years, with the rapid development of the economy, home appliances will naturally face a major phase-out. That is where the real profit of the scrap industry lies. If the parts inside are dismantled and sold, they will be worth too much. .

Even if you don’t understand home appliances, even the most inconspicuous waste plastic bottles can make a lot of money. The profit of a waste mineral water bottle is indeed not high, only a few cents, but the volume is large, and a net profit of hundreds of thousands of yuan a year is not new. If it is large-scale, it can make millions in net profit a year, which is almost like fun.

Li He just reminded Li Long that he didn't really care whether he actually made money or not.

Finally, he walked to the corner on the right and inadvertently lifted the raincloth on it. As Liu Laosi said, there were copper-clad cables, rails, manhole covers, and even transformers. The whole corner was piled high.

"Where did these come from?" Li He couldn't help but ask.

Li Long said nonchalantly, "I got it."

"Collected it?" Li He still held back his temper. If Li Long had been fifteen or sixteen years old, he would have gone up to it. "Do you know you are selling stolen goods?"

The manhole cover disappeared;

The tricycles and bicycles parked in front of the house are missing when they wake up;

Electricity and communication facilities are frequently stolen...

Where have all these manhole covers, cars, wires, and cables gone?

They were all moved away by the hard-working working people!

Where did you move to?

A scrap yard, of course.

Scrap copper costs more than five yuan a pound, which is certainly worth the risk for many people!

Seeing that Li He's expression was wrong, Li Long hesitated for a moment and then said, "Brother, I'm just collecting scraps. Don't be so scary."

Li He sighed, "You don't understand the law, do you? Do you want me to educate you? It's enough to harbor, transfer, and acquire you to betray you for three years! Who gave you the courage to do this?"

Li Long bravely said, "It's not as serious as you said. It can be such a big deal. I'm not the only one here. Some of them have been doing it for more than ten years. They're all good. Besides, I have friends in the police station. It's okay." , don’t worry.”

He is almost thirty years old, how can he be poked in the face like this, not even his own brother.

"If you still think of me as your brother, deal with it immediately, and don't accept me again in the future. I'm your brother, how can I still harm you?" Li He hasn't spoken to anyone so patiently for a long time. , if this wasn't his brother, he would have kicked him directly. "Besides, aren't you doing this just for a little money? If you are really short of money, I can give it to you right away. Okay?"

"Okay, you can sit down for a while." Li Long returned to the room, called out a worker, took out the account book, and the two began to reconcile the accounts.

After checking the accounts, he pointed at the pile in the corner to several workers, and then several workers began to get busy, packing and pressing the bundles.

Only then did Li He realize that Li Long had finally listened.

If he really couldn't listen to the advice, and he couldn't be beaten or scolded, he could only spend money to cut off Li Long's access to the scrap station, and let Li Long keep his money and become a rich man.

The two brothers rode to the county department store together.

Today's county department store is no longer the original county department store. It has changed its name to Bian and has become completely private.

Bian Mei came over and welcomed Li He into the office, made him a cup of tea, and said with a smile, "Li Erhe, are you good? Are you back for the Spring Festival?"

If anyone else had asked her, she wouldn't have asked, but she knew that Li He's parents, wife and children had not been brought back, so it was unlikely that they would come back to celebrate the festival.

Li He smiled and said, "It depends on the situation. Is your business doing well here?"

"Let's make it work. I borrowed a lot of debt." Bian Mei pointed at Li Long, "If you don't believe me, ask your brother, he is still my creditor, and I still owe him more than 200,000 yuan. Hey, this pressure is really big."

Li He smiled and said, "I'm not here to hear you cry about poverty."

Bian Mei said with a smile, "I heard from Da Zhuang and Liu Laosi that you are engaged in real estate in Shenzhen. If you have any suitable project introductions, you can immediately recruit a team of people to guide you wherever you go!"

Li He smiled and said, "I have several projects on hand, some big and some small. Will you take on the big one or the small one?"

Bian Mei said, "Yes, you look down on me. If I want to do something big, it must be big. Tell me what kind of project it is."

Li He cleared his throat and said, "There are several big ones. One is to install an elevator for the Himalayas, the other is to build a guardrail for the Pacific Ocean, and the third is to install a roof for the Atlantic Ocean. Which one do you want to take?"

Bian Mei was stunned for a long time before she reacted and punched Li He angrily, "Okay, I'm serious with you, how dare you make a joke!"

"Hey, spare your life! Spare your life!" Li He hid sideways for a moment, then said with a smile, "Seriously, my brother will send his child to Shenzhen after the new year. If you have a chance, you go with him, and I will introduce someone to you, no. Job."

After Li Pei and the others started school, Li He planned to ask Li Long to send them there, and he did not plan to come back to pick them up in person.

"You didn't lie to me?" Bian Mei didn't believe it.

Li He said, "How dare I lie to you? I must be serious this time."

"Then it's settled, I can definitely recruit a lot of people. Do you believe it?"

"You must believe it!" The local area is one of the five largest sources of migrant workers in the country, and the best thing about it is the people. So Li He had no doubt that Bian Mei could attract people.

"Then it's settled. I'll go find you then, but you can't let me go." Bian Mei smiled again and said, "Anyway, you can introduce me to me. Whether or not we can negotiate is my own business. It's still your business." I owe you a favor. Oh, by the way, don’t leave at noon, let’s go have a drink.”

Li He waved his hand, "Not this time, maybe next time. I'll treat you to dinner in a few days. I'm just here to buy some things and go see someone."

Bian Mei stopped forcing and said with a smile, "Whatever you want, I'll have someone bring it to you."

Li He stood up and said, "I will choose whoever has the hands and feet. You can do your own thing."

After saying that, he and Li Long went directly to the mall to buy things.

He didn't care what Li Long bought, he just chose some baby products, from milk powder to clothes, and threw them into the basket as soon as he saw them. However, he only recognized one kind of milk powder, which was Huishan. At his strong request, the milk powder for Lao Li's children, including Li Lan, came from this factory.

Li Long only bought some cereals and nutritional supplements, and was puzzled by how many bags of baby products his brother packed. Not only did he hear his sister-in-law complain about his brother, but he never bought a bag of milk powder or even a diaper for his child. , simply ignore it.

Why are you so enthusiastic about buying these things now?
