After returning home, Chen Xia began his own plan to make money.

His operation method is actually very simple. The grain harvest in the countryside has been bumper, but farmers dare not take it out to sell it on the market. If they want to sell it, they can only sell it to grain stations.

However, the purchase price of grain stations is very low. Yuezhou has always been an agricultural area. It can be said that grain stations are not short of grain, and they have to transport a large amount of food every year to earn the difference.

So their purchase price is very low, and only 7 cents are given per pound of rice.

However, after purchasing the grain station and processing the grain factory, then putting it on the counter of the supply and marketing cooperative, the cheapest pound of grain is sold for 10 cents and 5 cents, while the better fine grains are about 10 cents and 8 cents.

The profit of supply and marketing is quite considerable.

Another point is that people in the city don’t just need to buy food with money, but they also need food coupons.

So many times, grain coupons are even more expensive than grain. A grain coupon can be exchanged for several kilograms of grain. On the black market, a kilogram of grain coupons can be exchanged for three or four yuan.

Chen Xia thought that if he bought rice in the countryside and then took it to the city to buy it, he would take out 20 or 30 kilograms every time, even if he was caught, it would not be considered a speculative one, right?

And the difference between this will definitely make him full.

As for where to sell it?

This is even simpler. Isn’t my elder sister Chen Chun going to college in the provincial capital? She can take advantage of the summer vacation to visit her sister and then secretly sell rice in Lin'an City. No one can find out that it is not.

To realize his plan to make money, he must first get the tacit approval of the captain Chen Yigen. Chen Xia decided to discuss with him.

"What? Are you going to buy rice? Chen Xia, isn't your family's food enough? I can give you a few bags."

"No, Fourth Grandpa, I want to buy a lot of rice, and I want as much as I can. Then I borrow the rice mill in our village for use. I only have rice, and I will leave all the remaining rice bran to the brigade and let the brigade dominate it."

Chen Yigen feels that his brain is a little too small.

"Wait, are you saying you want to buy rice from the entire village? Chen Xia, why do you still have water in your mind? Why do you want so much rice? Can you finish eating three of your family?"

Chen Xia looked dark, but now she likes to say that her mind is in the middle of her mind at any time.

Chen Xia walked out the door, looked at no one around, closed the door again, then came to Chen Yigen and said softly:

"Fourth Grandpa, I tell you this, you can't tell others that this is actually what the Fourth Academy wants. President Gu and Secretary Zhang knew that I was from a rural area, so they wanted me to help raise some food, so that they could distribute it to the employees of the Fourth Academy. Now there is not enough food, which will affect the work."

When Chen Yigen heard that it was the Fourth Courtyard, he felt relieved and nodded quickly and said, "Oh oh oh."

"But it is against discipline for the Fourth Academy to purchase grain. They don't have so many grain coupons to purchase at the supply and marketing cooperative, so I entrusted me to purchase a batch of grain quietly. The rice in the grain station costs 7 cents per pound, but they are willing to add 2 cents or 9 cents per pound. In this way, the employees of the Fourth Academy have food to eat, so we farmers can make some money, right?"

Chen Yigen slapped his thigh, "Oh, this is a good thing, I support you. This year, the grain harvest is bumper, and many people are worried about not being able to finish eating, and they can't exchange a few dollars. OK, then you can collect it."

When Chen Xia heard the captain hooking up, she couldn't help but feel a little funny and guilty.

"Fourth Grandpa, there is still a difficulty in front of me. The Fourth Hospital quietly purchased grain but did not dare to touch the money in the hospital's account. What they meant was whether I could buy it first and then sell it to the employees before giving it to me. Now the money I bought is not enough, it is only more than 900 yuan. Can you borrow 1,000 yuan from the village account first?"

Chen Yigen glared at the ear and taught a lesson: "Now you know you have no money? You are not happy if you want to save some money a few days ago. It's okay to lend you money. I'll make the decision, but you have to pay it back in time."

"Grandpa Fourth, can you trust me, or the credibility of the Fourth Hospital? I can only collect more than 10,000 kilograms of grain for more than 10,000 yuan. There are so many employees and family members of the Fourth Hospital, and each person is less than 10 kilograms. Are you afraid that these workers will not have money to give us?"

Now Chen Yigen was completely relieved. It’s a big hospital that more than one thousand yuan is nothing.

So, it was immediately circulated in Qingfeng Village. Chen Bingkun's second son had to purchase a large amount of grain, which cost 2 cents more than the grain station per catty.

Now the villagers have no agreement. This year is the first year of a bumper harvest. Everyone has surplus grain, but what farmers lack the most now is cash.

There is always the first one to eat anything.

The Lin family of Chen Guo was close to Chen Xia. In the evening of that day, Guo Lin came quietly and grabbed Chen Xia and asked:

"Xiaoxia, do you really want to collect food?"

"Auntie, it's true. You can pay 9 cents per pound. You can deliver the goods with one hand. And I only need 20,000 pounds to be limited. If you want to sell it, hurry up."

"Okay, this sentence is enough with you."

So, the "Chen Family Grain Station" opened in the brigade rice mill warehouse. Guo Lin's wife was the first to sell 400 kilograms of rice, and got 36 yuan from Chen Qiu on the spot, making Guo Lin's wife smiled happily.

Chen Yigen sat next to him. Today he was here to hold Chen Xia's battle, for fear that he would make mistakes in his busy schedule and that it would be a bad thing to cheat the villagers.

Seeing Guolin's wife's appearance, he quickly cleared his throat, "Go away after taking the money, keep it confidential, and don't tell anyone outside the village."

There is the first one and the second one. In just two days, 20,000 kilograms of rice were purchased. In fact, it was only 10 tons, and it could be transported away by a cement ship.

After purchasing the rice, Chen Xia gave a salary of 3 yuan a day and asked a few villagers to help him thresh the rice in the rice milling farm, and all the white rice were prepared in bags.

While Chen Xia was busy grinding rice, the third grandmother quietly grabbed Chen Xia, "Big grandson, are you collecting eggs?"

"Egg?" Chen Xia thought this was a good thing and she had no worries about selling it. "Grandma San, do you want to sell eggs?"

"Yes, I'm not raising some hens. At that time, your fourth grandfather didn't dare to care about me. He used to sell an egg to the supply and marketing cooperative for 6 cents. You said, can you give me more? I'll sell it to you."

Chen Xia thought, if this egg is taken into a big city, it will definitely be a hot item and will not lose at all. "So, then I will charge an egg for 8 cents. What do you think?"

"8 points are good, 8 points are good. It's really my eldest grandson. I'll bring it to you right away." The agile figure when the third grandmother left was really unaware that she was 76 years old.

In less than half an hour, Grandma San came back and carried a large basket of eggs in her hand.

Behind her, several old ladies from the same village were also following her, and they also carried a basket on them, covering them with a piece of rag.

"Second, we have all heard that you give your third grandma 8 cents an egg. We have eggs, and we have them all. Today, we have sold them all to you. You can't stop collecting them."

So with the insistence of several old ladies in the village, Chen Xia collected more than 300 eggs.

Then one night, Chen Guolin used a cement ship from the village to quietly transport the rice to a river port near the Fourth Courtyard.

When the cement ship turned around and left, Chen Xia shook his hand and received the more than 10,000 kilograms of rice at the Space Hospital.

Looking at so many white new rice, Chen Xia smiled like a little fox.

When he got home, Chen Xia asked Chen Qiu and Chen Dong,

"Do you want to have a big sister? Let's go to Lin'an to see my sister and take you to a big city for a walk?"

How about it? What else can it be done? Of course, the two children agreed with each other with both hands and feet.

They had only heard from their elder sister that Lin'an was so prosperous, with cars everywhere, wide roads and traffic lights in the middle of the road.

There are everything in the shopping mall, there are dozens of candies alone, and there are also cool and comfortable popsicles.

Which child can withstand such temptation?

However, it was not easy to go far in this era. Chen Xia first went to the village to publish a letter of introduction, proving that the three children were visiting their sisters in the provincial capital and there was no suitcase at home, so Chen Xia had to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a wicker box.

Just when everything was ready and the three of them were about to go to Lin'an the next day, my uncle didn't know where he heard the news, and he must follow him to the big city to see his "great-girl" as well.

No matter how his father taught him, the young elders were still rolling around in Chen Xia's yard to act like a rogue.

When Chen Xia saw it, he quickly stopped the angry little grandfather, squatted down and said to his uncle who was rolling on the ground:

"Okay, I'll take you there, but you have to listen to me when you take you there, otherwise you will be thrown into Lin'an and you will be arrested as a blind man and go to the labor camp."

In this way, another member of the Lin'an tour group was added.

The little grandfather was very helpless and quietly stuffed 10 yuan into Chen Xia. The money was the money he had just sold rice, but it was gone before it was heated up. He felt so distressed that his grandfather didn't have any good food.

At this time, you have to transfer to Kezhen when you go to Lin'an, either take a long-distance bus or take a train.

Because there were many children in this tour group, they unanimously decided to take the train.

Kecheng Railway Station has only one waiting hall and one ticket gate. Adult tickets to Lin'an are 2 yuan and children's tickets are 1 yuan.

There are no high-speed trains, no high-speed trains, and there are only green trains. The steam engine locomotive runs at a speed. Chen Xia is a little suspicious that riding a bicycle is faster than a train.

After the three little guys got into the car, their butts were like oiling, climbing up and down on their seats, looking at the scenery outside the window, and then strolling around the carriage.

Even the toilet on the train was fun, and it was so amazing that it could flush.

In this way, amid the noise of the children, I finally arrived at Lin'an Railway Station after two hours.
Chapter completed!
