Chapter 139
On the way home, Lin Shu sat in the back seat and hugged Gu Jiu's waist, and asked curiously: "What did you just talk about with the brothers? Or was it about starting a company?"
"Yeah." Gu Jiu looked ahead and carefully walked around the small potholes on the road.
Lin Shu didn't know how their discussion went, "Gu Jiu, I don't know how your discussion went, but I have a suggestion, are you willing to listen to it?"
Gu Jiuxiao Question: "What suggestions do you have? Let me hear them."
Lin Shu thought for a while and said, "Through my observations yesterday and today, are some of your brothers descended from cadres?"
Gu Jiu was surprised at Lin Shu's careful observation, "It seems like your eyes are It’s quite sharp, indeed, there are several families where the parents are the leaders of the work units.”
Lin. Shu snapped his fingers pretending to be proud: "That's right."
"You don't want their parents to use their power for personal gain, do you?"
Lin Shu raised his fist and beat him on the back. After a moment, he said angrily: "Who do you think I am? Am I that kind of person?"
"Uh!" Gu Jiu snorted, "Shu Shu, you are trying to murder your husband. Beat him so hard."
Lin Shu snorted coldly, not bothering to pay attention to him. How much did she use? Don’t you know how powerful it is?
"I was wrong, wife. I shouldn't talk nonsense. Please tell me your suggestions."
Lin Shu was not really angry. Hearing his resignation, the corners of his mouth turned up. "The Chinese New Year is coming in more than two months. , No matter which city there is, there is a shortage of supplies. You said that at the end of the year, are all units having a headache to provide benefits to their employees? "
Gu Jiu nodded, "Well, you are right, what next?" br>
Lin Shu: "But each place also has its own specialties, such as the three northeastern provinces, dried mushrooms, pine nuts, hazelnuts, walnuts, fungus, etc. These dry goods may not be worth a few dollars there, but if they are shipped to us Come on, the price is definitely affordable and it’s very popular.”
“The three northeastern provinces are too far away from us, so there shouldn’t be much profit after shipping and labor costs.” Gu Jiu estimated in his mind. one time.
"You can make money, it just depends on whether you are greedy or not." With that, Lin Shu revealed his second step plan, "Every household has to visit relatives to give gifts during the New Year. If We package these dry goods in separate bags and put them in gift boxes before giving them as gifts. Is it more than one grade? Can’t the price be compared with the dry goods in the normal market? "
For example, a pound of pine nuts may cost two to three yuan per pound in the market. If it is packaged in a gift, A gift box of two kilograms may be priced at eight to nine yuan.
For another example, if you put pine nuts, melon seeds, peanuts, hazelnuts, etc. into a gift box, dry goods that originally cost only three or four yuan can still be sold for eight or nine yuan after being packaged in a gift box.
This is the same as respecting Luo Yi first and then respecting people.
The person giving the gift does not care whether the items in the gift box are worth the price. What he cares about is whether the gift box is of high quality and has dignity when he takes it to visit relatives.
Just like in later generations, a few packages of biscuits were put in a gift box, and they were taken out thinking that there were at least two kilograms of biscuits, but it turned out to be only half a kilogram. What about honey? Two bottles of half a kilogram of honey were also put in huge gift boxes. They looked eye-catching when they were put out, but in fact they were full of frivolous things.
Of course, people in this era pay attention to affordability. They don’t need to go too far. At least they think that two pounds of pine nuts can be made into one pound and sixty ounces, making the gift box affordable and valuable.
Gu Jiu's eyes lit up instantly and he asked happily: "You mean when we come back from outside, we will make it into a gift box and sell it to various units? Let the unit make this gift box for welfare at the end of the year? ”
"Smart, my men are pretty smart, not bad."
The corner of Gu Jiu's mouth twitched, "."
When I got home, except for the people who went to work, most of the children who went to school were back. , the house is very lively.
It’s a good thing that my family hired a nanny, otherwise I would be so worried that I would be bald just cooking for the family.
Gu Jiu carried half the basket of fruits into the kitchen. Before the nanny could wash it, several children who followed him snatched the basket away and rushed to wash the apples.
Not to mention, when a large family lives together, it seems that there is not enough food for everyone, everyone is rushing to eat, and everything tastes delicious.
Lin Shu felt the most obvious. Every time she ate and watched the children devouring their food, she felt that her appetite was not much better. From yesterday to today, she had not experienced morning sickness much, and she also ate half a bowl more at each meal.
Lin Shu saw that the second sister-in-law Li Ling was busy with the nanny in the kitchen today. She rolled up her sleeves and wanted to help, but was pushed out by Li Ling.
"I really don't need your help here. I've been shopping outside all afternoon. I asked Lao Jiu to accompany you upstairs to have a rest. I'll call you after dinner."
Gu Jiu took a bite of the apple and asked with a smile: "Did you get kicked out?"
Lin Shu grabbed his hand and took a bite on the apple he had bitten, "You are so bad. , obviously seeing my second sister-in-law pushing me out, she still wants to come Ask, are you asking for a beating?"
Gu Jiu put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Since the second sister-in-law wants you to rest, I will go up with you."
After that, he took a bite. Apple, just raise the apple to Lin Shu's mouth.
Lin Shu pushed away in disgust, "Don't let me eat your saliva."
"You just bit my apple. You didn't dislike it the first time, but you disliked it the second time. How can you be like this!"
"Is it too late for me to dislike it now?" Lin Shu rolled his eyes at him.
Gu Jiu chuckled: "It's too late. If you get on my pirate ship, don't even think about escaping."
As soon as he returned to the room on the second floor, Lin Shu started looking for clothes to wash up. .
"Why don't you rest for a while before you go?" Gu Jiu wanted to lie down on the bed, but before he could sit down, Lin Shu stopped him.
"You've been running outside all afternoon. How much dust have you collected? Why don't you wash up and change into clean clothes before lying on the bed?" Lin Shu rushed the person to the round stool next to him.
Gu Jiu made a gesture to get up and said with interest: "How about I go take a shower with you?"
"What a beautiful idea!" Lin Shu picked up the soft pillow next to him. Hit him.
I made him soak in the bathroom for two hours last night. How could I let him succeed today?
Waiting for Lin Shu to wash up, then Gu Jiu.
When Gu Jiu came out, he saw Lin Shu sitting at the small round table counting money.
"How did you get so much money? Are you rich?"
Gu Jiuzi wiped his hair and stared at the neatly arranged banknotes at the table, his envy was palpable.
"Mom gave me the gift money for our wedding banquet and the list of gifts. What do we do with so much money?" Lin Shu didn't seem to notice his expression and asked.
Gu Jiu didn't answer and asked: "How do you want to deal with it?"
"What do you think about investing?"
"What do you want to do?" Gu Jiu was a little surprised. After all, they both saved their money when they were in the county town. They didn't expect to come to the provincial capital. , she will first think of investment.
“What do you think about buying a house and waiting for the appreciation in value?”
When he heard her words, the first thing Gu Jiu thought of was not the investment appreciation, but more, “You I bought a house because I wanted to move out, but I didn’t want to live with my dad. Mom, they live together?”
“Don’t think nonsense, I just want to increase my value.” Lin Shu quickly stopped him. If his parents-in-law heard this, I don’t know how sad they would be. Instigated Gu Jiu to move out.
"But these days, few people really want to sell their houses. They don't even have enough room to live in their own homes, so how can they still sell their homes to takeaways." The provincial capital is more short of housing than the county town. If everyone's living area is really calculated, it is not as comfortable as living in a small county town.
