Return To 1990

One Hundred and Fifty Thousand

Lu Feng’s vision was extremely sharp. Although Ren Qianbo had only said a few words to him and he had already felt a sense of crisis, the truth was that his guess was correct.

Ren Qianbo’s factory not only made canned food, but also other food products. They mainly went to the supply and marketing cooperatives and commissaries. The advantage of this market was that it was more stable, but the disadvantage was that it was too stable.

In the past few days, Ren Qianbo had made inquiries about Lu Feng’s sales model. The hardest part was the food station. However, it was not a  big problem to spend a little effort and money.

The business was in full swing, and the production scale had stabilized. The profits had stabilized at 8,000 to 9,000 dollars. Lu Feng had promoted two people as supervisors, but he was still worried. He had to work night shifts every night.

After giving away the money from the packaging machine, Lu Feng already had 150,000 dollars in his hands. Counting the funds in circulation, it was close to 180,000 dollars. He had thought that 10,000 dollars was so far away, but he hadn’t expected it to be nearly 200,000 dollars.

In the evening, the day shift workers got off work and the night shift workers started to work. Big Head and Lu Feng had a meal break, and Lu Feng found that there were some people loitering around the workshop who he did not know what they were doing..

“Big Head, what are those youngsters doing here today?”Lu Feng asked.

“Asking about the price. Asking people what the price is and what the price is to supply.”Big-head put down his chopsticks and said doubtfully,” There have been a lot of people asking about us recently. Brother Feng, Zhou Hao isn’t even here to pull supplies anymore. He’s supplying for others. Many people who buy goods aren’t happy with the supply”

“Leave him alone!”Lu Feng waved his hand. In the end, Zhou Hao was just a partner. He could do whatever he wanted. Moreover, this guy had earned quite a lot. He had tens of thousands of dollars.

“You’ll be watching for Brother tonight. With Han Dong’s help, you don’t have to be too tired.”

“Brother Feng, if you have something to do, go and do it. I’ll just watch.”Big Head thought for a moment and said,” Zhou Jianguo and Sun Longbin were here again this morning.”

Lu Feng sighed. The two of them had come to look for him almost every day these past few days. They had helped Lu Feng so much because they wanted to get a reward from him. Now that he pushed them off again and again, the two of them were about to fall out with him.

So be it. The two people who had been used up would not cause much trouble.

“Ignore them. Even if they invite you for a drink, don’t go. Understand?”

Big Head nodded.

After eating, he entered the workshop. It was a busy place. There was a temporary cash register in the corner. The cabinet below was locked. In order to make it easier for him to pay the bill, Lu Feng had not touched the money.

The people around him were getting more and more chaotic. Lu Feng was worried about putting so much money here. He found a bag and opened the lock. Big Head was shocked when he saw the money inside.

He knew it was very profitable, but when he saw that the cabinet was filled with money, the visual effect was still very shocking!

Lu Feng quietly observed Big Head’s expression. It seemed like he was simply shocked by so much money. There was no greed, injustice, jealousy, or other more complicated emotions in his eyes.

“Big Head, do you think this world is unfair?””You’re doing what I do. I’ m even doing less than you, but the money is mine.”Lu Feng asked.

“Brother Feng, I didn’t do anything. It was all you. I’ ve already taken a lot. Compared to them, it’s much easier.”Big Head pointed at the hardworking workers and said,” Brother Feng, you’re someone who does big things. You earned all of this!”

Lu Feng patted Big Head on the shoulder and began to load the bag.150,000 was not a small amount, so he was very confident. Lu Feng looked at Big Head and said,” It’s just the beginning now. Look at the long term. Today is 150,000, tomorrow is 1.5 million,15 million. You believe in Brother Feng, he won’t mistreat you.”

Big Head nodded gloomily and said nothing.

Lu Feng drove home on his motorcycle. Jiang Xiaoyan had already resigned from her job at the restaurant. Lu Feng told her to stop working at the electronics factory, but she didn’t listen.

However, she was already much more relaxed. At the very least, she didn’t have to get up early every day. After paying off her debt, she was happy every day. Her days began to flow in a beautiful direction.

Lu Feng knocked on the door and Jiang Xiaoyan opened it. She saw the smile and surprise on his face.

“Aren’t you working the night shift? Why are you back?”

“Let Big Head watch. I miss you.”Lu Feng entered the room with a smile.

“What are you talking about?”Jiang Xiaoyan’s face turned red as she hit him. She looked outside and made sure that no one heard her words before she closed the door.

“Come here let me show you something.”Lu Feng placed his bag on the table.

“Keep your voice down. Duoduo is asleep.”Jiang Xiaoyan walked over and asked,” What?”

“Open it!”

“What? He’s just pretending to be a fool and he’s buying me something?”I’ve been telling you, don’t buy things blindly. Men buy things and don’t do pricing”

Jiang Xiaoyan opened the zipper of the bag as she spoke, and her words stopped abruptly. She stared at the things in the bag.

“This…”

“So much money?”

After she finished speaking, she hastily covered her mouth with her hand, afraid that there would be ears on the wall.

“Not much,150,000!”Lu Feng said calmly.

150,000, Not much?

Although ten thousand dollars wasn’t worth as much as it was in the early 1980s, whoever had ten thousand dollars was definitely a rich person. One hundred and fifty thousand yuan was so indifferent to Lu Feng.

“Where did you get so much money? You robbed the bank?”Jiang Xiaoyan anxiously said.

“I earned it. Didn’t I tell you I opened a factory?”Lu Feng saw that she was surprised and happy, and tears began to flow out of her eyes. He smacked his lips and said,” Don’t cry again. I promised you in my heart that I would let you live a good life.”

“I’m happy!”

Jiang Xiaoyan was a very traditional person, especially between men and women. However, during this period of time when she was with Lu Feng, she had already started to show some openness. At the very least, she wouldn’t be so outside. The two of them looked at each other and blushed.

Now that she was excited, she threw herself into Lu Feng’s arms and lifted her head to kiss his face.

Duo Duo didn’t know when she woke up. She lay on the bed and said,” Mommy, you’ re embarrassed!”

“Ah?”

Jiang Xiaoyan turned her head and sawlooked at her.. Her face turned red as she said bashfully,” Child, why aren’t you sleeping at night?”

Lu Feng reached out and touched her cheeks. He smiled and said,” It’s fine. You put the money away. I’ ll have to replace Big head later.”

“So much money, where should I put it?”Jiang Xiaoyan anxiously said.

Lu Feng looked at her and said helplessly,” Just leave it at the bottom of the bed. Tomorrow morning, we’ll go buy some clothes for our family.”

“If there’s a little money, it would start to drift. We have to save it up!”

Lu Feng didn’t say anything. He knew how important it was to dress. Everyone assessed people with their clothes. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have fooled so many people with his wedding suit.
