Chapter 5 Chapter 4 Buying Short and Selling Short

Although I am determined to change the situation in front of me, it is only determined.I was like a headless fly, flying around, anxiously looking for opportunities every day, but idly waiting for the next day to come, thinking that a miracle would happen in the new day. However, the sound of the waves remained the same, and there was no miracle. Today, a distant relative of Zhou Yuan came to play at home. At first I wanted to avoid seeing him, but I couldn't find a reason, so I bit the bullet and chatted with him. I call him Lao Li, and he bought a slag removal truck to help remove slag at some earthwork sites.But he is not good at finding business, and the business volume is not too large.

I thought that I could contract some muck transportation business, and then contract it to him for transportation, and eat a little difference in the middle. This is equivalent to a broker, buying short and selling short. When I told Lao Li about this idea, Lao Li said that there was no problem, but at the same time emphasized that this business is not easy to do, and I need to be mentally prepared. If in the past, when I decided on a train of thought, I would carefully consider it, hoping that it would be safe before I acted. As a result, when I thought about it thoroughly, I either lost the opportunity, or the more I thought about it, the more afraid I became, and nothing was achieved in the end.

This time, no matter what happens, let's do it first and then talk, anyway, I am idle. I called my brother and said that I was going to work in the company.The younger brother naturally agreed.In this way, after three years of wandering, I finally started to "work". "Going to work" is a wonderful feeling. In the past, I always lied to Zhou Yuan that I went to work, but I never told her where I went to work.Now I really go to work, although it is almost the same as before, but I feel very solid.That said, I don't have to cover it up if someone gets to the bottom of it and asks me where I work.

In the past few days, I sat by the phone of the "company" with a yellow page in my hand, and I picked out the phone numbers of real estate companies, and then called them to ask if there was any muck transportation business. After making many phone calls, I gradually realized that in fact, all real estate companies are doing the same thing as me: buying short and selling short.Look for construction companies for civil engineering, and decoration companies for exterior wall decoration. The role of real estate companies is to take money from home buyers with their left hand, and then pay the relevant contracting companies with their right hand, and eat the huge price difference in the middle.

After a series of phone calls, either the person could not be found in the end, or the person had already contracted out the muck transportation. Nearly a month has passed, and today my younger brother complained that the "company" phone bill was too high, implying that I should take it easy. I care about my brother's opinion very much. After all, this company is supported by him alone. My brother, who is four years younger than me, lives by my brother. But I have no other way to choose, and I also think this is a good way. I decided to go directly to those earthwork sites to contact business.

In fact, I thought of this method at the beginning, but I had to take a car to the construction site. At that time, I often didn’t even have 10 yuan in my bag.Besides, how many construction sites can you go to in a day? I often ask my younger brother for money, and I am really ashamed to speak up. But now, that's all I can do. I once again described the prospect of this road to my younger brother, and said that the money we made would be shared equally between the two brothers, and I hoped that he would support me. My younger brother may have also seen the prospect of this, so he pooled 200 yuan for me.

I spent 10 yuan to print a box of business cards. The name of the unit on the business card was randomly chosen by me. It was called a certain muck transportation team, and I was the business contact.I made up my mind to use the 200 yuan to undertake the first business. Heaven pays off.Today, when the 200 yuan fund is almost used up, I really received the first muck transportation business. This is a school construction site. I negotiated with the contractor for 200 yuan per car, and I contracted it to Zhou Yuan’s relative, Lao Li, for 190 yuan per car. The entire construction site needs about 5 cars (Lao Li organizes the vehicles, each He will pay 2 yuan per trip), and each car runs about ten times a day, and it is estimated that it will take a month to pull the muck.

I made a budget, and I can earn more than 10,000 yuan from this business.More than 10,000, now, at the lowest point of my life, I dare not even think about it. On the day the business was negotiated, I made an exception and bought a pack of 8 yuan cigarettes as a congratulation. It is indeed more comfortable to smoke a cigarette worth 8 yuan compared with a cigarette worth 2 yuan. I told my brother the good news as soon as possible.My younger brother is also very happy, because since my younger brother was brought to City C from the countryside by me, he has never earned so much money. In the evening, my brother and I cooked two small dishes in his rental house, bought a bottle of wine, and planned our future while drinking.

I would like to contact other construction sites for rolling development while the construction site of the school is in progress.As for the transport vehicle, I asked Lao Li to help find it, anyway, he can also get benefits. If it goes well, we can mortgage a house in a relatively short period of time and bring our parents from the countryside to live in the city. I have been out for so many years, and I have never dared to think about buying a house.Because we had no house of our own and no money, when our relatives from the countryside came to the city, we either avoided seeing them, or simply entertained them outside.

But our relatives in the country thought we were doing well in the city. "Here, they all married wives from the city, so they must be doing well." Originally very poor, but was mistaken for the scenery, the pain in my heart, only I know.
