"There are still fifteen days before the Chinese New Year. There will be three of us, two of you plus me. Let's get the goods first, and then sell them from village to village." Qin Zijin looked at Cheng Zhihao's worried expression, but smiled confidently.

Fireworks and firecrackers can definitely make a lot of money, and as for Spring Festival couplets, they are just a by-product.

That kind of thing doesn't make much profit.

"Go one village at a time?" Cheng Zhihao was completely shocked.

"Of course, many villages are like Shangao Village. It's very difficult to get in and out. It takes three or four hours to go to the town and back, and that's with ox carts. If there are no ox carts, and you have to walk there, it will take even longer."

"But if these things are sold in the village, they will definitely choose to buy them in the village. First, it saves the time of going back and forth. Second, the goods are the same and the prices are the same as outside. But psychologically, people always feel that they have made a profit." Qin Zijin smiled and explained to Cheng Zhihao seriously.

Cheng Zhihao's eyes lit up as he listened. He then slammed his hand on the table and shouted excitedly, "Sister-in-law, it has to be you! You're good at business! I think it makes sense. Let's do this. I know someone who sells couplets and other things wholesale. I'll go find someone to buy some tomorrow."

"Let's go today. What do you plan to do today?" Qin Zijin glared at him unhappily.

Cheng Zhihao scratched his head embarrassedly, "Are you so anxious today?"

"Of course. Once we have settled the issue of goods today, we can start selling directly tomorrow. The sooner we set up the stall, the sooner we can make money. If people go out to town to buy things, you will lose a customer, right?" Qin Zijin said seriously.

"Yes, then I'll go now..." Cheng Zhihao started to plan in a hurry.

"How do you plan to get the things back to the village?" Qin Zijin didn't stop him, but just asked lightly.

Cheng Zhihao paused and looked back at Qin Zijin, "No, I haven't thought about it yet."

"Go find Brother Daniu and ask him to help. By the way, ask him if he wants to do this in partnership. If he is willing to pay, then we can meet and see how much each party will contribute and how to distribute the money when the time comes." Qin Zijin looked at Cheng Zhihao and always felt that this guy was stupid. He didn't know how he made the money.

I guess it was just luck.

Maybe it’s because now is the best time to make money?

"Okay, I'll go find Brother Daniu now." Cheng Zhihao said and ran away like a gust of wind.

Soon Miao Cuicui and Zhao Daniu came to Qin Zijin.

As soon as Miao Cuicui entered the room, she pulled Qin Zijin and said, "Zijin, are you planning to get us to do business together? Are you sure?"

"We will definitely not lose money. As for how much profit we make, it depends on the situation." Qin Zijin patted Miao Cuicui's hand.

"Okay, then I'll make a bet with you. We don't have much money at home, and I can only take out 500 yuan." Miao Cuicui gritted her teeth and went for it.

He took out a cloth bag from his bosom, which contained a thick stack of money, including five-yuan, ten-yuan, and one-yuan and fifty-cent notes, all neatly stacked.

Miao Cuicui felt around for a moment before handing it to Qin Zijin. "This is the money I plan to use to send Gangzi to school next September. I'm giving it to you."

"Sister-in-law, don't worry." Qin Zijin patted Miao Cuicui's hand.

Then he put the money on the table and looked at Cheng Zhihao, "Tell me first, how many fireworks and firecrackers are there in that batch, and roughly how much they are."

Cheng Zhihao sat down next to him, his expression becoming more serious. "That batch of goods is quite large. I can't finish it all by myself. I plan to only take a portion of it, which is about 5,000 yuan."

"Our family can afford three thousand." Qin Zijin stretched out three fingers.

Tang Shen was a little surprised.

After all, Qin Zijin said last time that the family’s savings were only one thousand.

Now it has suddenly become three thousand...

However, Tang Shen had absolute trust in Qin Zijin, so he naturally didn't say anything.

"Three thousand?" Cheng Zhihao was a little surprised. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Sister-in-law, you are so open. I won't hide anything from you. I have saved some money over the past few years, and I have exactly five thousand to give out."

"Okay, then you get 5,000, I get 3,000, and Da Niu and the others get 500." Qin Zijin nodded and did a statistics.

Miao Cuicui was stunned when she saw Qin Zijin and Cheng Zhihao taking out such a large sum of money in one breath.

This is three thousand five thousand! Not three or five yuan!

If I lose...

Miao Cuicui didn't even dare to think about it.

"Haha, would you like to take me, an old man, to play too?" Tang Aiguo walked in from outside with a smile and asked.

"Dad?" Qin Zijin and Tang Can both stood up and looked at Tang Aiguo.

Tang Aiguo walked over and sat down with a smile. "Over the years, I've saved some money for Tang Shen. I originally intended to give him money to raise two children, but before I could give him the money, an accident happened. The money is still in the bank. It's not much, exactly two thousand yuan."

Qin Zijin and Tang Can looked at each other.

Finally, it was Qin Zijin who spoke up: "Dad, we can't take your money."

"Yes, Dad, you should keep the money." Tang Can also spoke.

"Listen to me, this money can be considered as my investment. If you make money, you don't have to give it to me. You two can keep the money. This is the money I save for my two grandsons. It has nothing to do with you." Tang Aiguo knew that Qin Zijin and Tang Can would not accept it, so he had thought of a set of excuses early on.

Qin Zijin and Tang Can were really speechless at this moment.

If the grandfather wants to leave some property to his grandson, can they stop him?

The money issue has been settled. According to the proportion of each person's contribution, Qin Zijin also agreed with Miao Cuicui and the others on the proportion of the money to be divided.

No one had any opinions.

As for those who helped with the work, such as Zhao Daniu who helped transport the goods, Cheng Zhihao who sold the goods, Tang Can and others, they were paid according to their work, and the daily wage was five yuan. Since they had to work a whole day, everyone had no objection to this.

After the money was in place and the division of the spoils was agreed upon, Cheng Zhihao went out with Zhao Daniu to buy goods.

Qin Zijin and Tang Shen were doing other preparations at home.

"Zi Jin, this is ten thousand yuan." Miao Cuicui still feels scared. Such a large sum of money would take a normal family several years to spend.

She spent all the money like this, and she always felt uneasy, afraid that if something went wrong and she lost money, then the money would really be wasted.

Miao Cuicui is a very honest and traditional rural woman. She knows nothing about doing business. At most, she can only sell some mountain products and make a little money. She really doesn't dare to even think about investing a large sum of money to do business.

"Sister-in-law, there is no gain without effort. Don't worry, I will definitely not lose money this time. Just wait to count the money." Qin Zijin was full of confidence.
