Chapter 107 Yangcheng
The train stopped in Yangcheng at eight o'clock in the evening. The two got off the train and found a guesthouse. After showing their ID cards and marriage certificate, they successfully checked into a double room.
After arriving in the room, Xia Wanyang looked around and exclaimed, "Yangcheng is really developed. Even ordinary guesthouses can compare to our best accommodation conditions!"
Zhang Shiye had been here many times in his previous life, so he naturally looked down on these things. He just kept urging people to enter the space, saying that he needed to take a bath after sitting on the train for three days.
Xia Wanyang certainly knew what he was thinking, but she had to accept defeat and there was nothing she could do.
After taking a shower, Zhang Shiye lay on the bed, looking at the reluctant little girl with a raised eyebrow, and couldn't help laughing, "Then forget it if you're just being reluctant. A forced melon is not sweet. Let's not make a bet next time..."
Xia Wanyang immediately changed her expression, "I'm not unwilling, I'm just a little tired!"
Zhang Shiye said nothing, waiting for her next move.
Xia Wanyang opened the bath towel with a blushing face and slowly got on the bed...
"Spit it out!"
Zhang Shiye put his hand to her mouth. Maybe it was because the quilt was too hot, but Xia Wanyang felt very hot. She spat out the contents of her mouth under the bed.
"Are you tired?"
Xia Wanyang nodded and said aggrievedly: "I'm so tired!"
Zhang Shiye looked at her expression with amusement, leaned over and was about to kiss the corner of her lips, but Xia Wanyang quickly pushed him away, "I haven't brushed my teeth yet!"
Zhang Shiye hugged her and pressed her into his arms, then kissed her shamelessly. Xia Wanyang was caught off guard, "Hmm..." As she opened her mouth, a tongue slipped into her mouth.
He kissed every corner of her mouth before letting the little girl go contentedly, "It tastes good!"
Thinking that he had to do important work the next day, Zhang Shiye let her go after making a fuss for half the night, and the two of them slept directly in the space.
Zhang Shiye opened his eyes early the next morning, gently took the little girl's hand off his abdomen, leaned over and kissed the corner of her mouth, and finally covered her with a quilt before getting up to wash.
At nine o'clock, Zhang Shiye returned to the bed, picked up Xia Wanyang and held her in his arms, "Little lazy pig, it's time to get up. We have to do some serious work later!"
Hearing about business, Xia Wanyang instantly perked up, "Why did you call me now? Come on, we can't do this tomorrow. We are here to do business, this is just nonsense!"
Zhang Shiye just smiled and said nothing, because no matter what he said, next time it would be the same...
The temperature in Guangzhou is suitable, the sun is shining, and the breeze is blowing. When they came here, both of them were wearing windbreakers, but now it seems that they only need to dress lightly like in the summer in the north. Xia Wanyang carefully selected a light yellow knee-length dress, which is light and flowing, showing her slender figure and elegant temperament. She matched it with a pair of white canvas shoes, which is simple and fresh. She let her long hair down and tied it up lightly with a yellow headband, adding a bit of playfulness and sweetness.
The two men came to the street and saw cars everywhere. The streets were very clean, and all kinds of inspiring slogans were hung on the buildings. Some small vendors were blatantly setting up stalls on the street. Businessmen in suits were walking hurriedly on the street, and their spirits seemed much more relaxed than those of people in the north.
"Honey, this place is so prosperous, it feels like Shanghai in the 1980s!"
"Like it here?"
Xia Wanyang nodded heavily, "I like it!"
Zhang Shiye patted her head lovingly, "Most of them are foreign businessmen who entered from Hong Kong City and then took the train to Yangcheng. If you like us, let's buy a house here. Anyway, we will come here more often in the future!"
"House? Can it be bought and sold freely now?"
"No, but can't you just not talk about buying or selling?"
After saying that, he took Xia Wanyang away. After taking several buses, they arrived at the suburbs of Yangcheng.
There are factories everywhere, producing textiles, steel, machinery, food, tea, watches, beer, etc. There is nothing you can't see, only what you can't think of.
Zhang Shiye spent 20 yuan to hire a local guide. For a whole afternoon, the guide took them to visit all the factories and explained the trading model.
Purchasing goods directly from the factory is the most direct, convenient and cheapest way. The market here is saturated, and it is unlikely to sell all the goods abroad, so every factory hopes to attract some brave and wealthy people to come and get the goods directly. Although it cannot be put on the surface, you receive the goods and I receive the money, and the payment is made. No matter what the follow-up service is, but it is cheap, even if there are some damages, it is a drop in the bucket.
How cheap are things? Take the watch, for example. The one Xia Wanyang is wearing was bought from the Shanghai Department Store for 1,000 yuan. Here, similar quality watches only cost 280 yuan, and ordinary watches only cost 70 yuan. The department store can increase the price by five times, and you have to pay for tickets. The black market can increase the price by six to seven times.
Xia Wanyang didn't say a word the whole time, just hugged Zhang Shiye's arm tightly. Yangcheng was much more open than their place, and no one would look down on them if the couple were to be intimate.
But she couldn't stop screaming in her heart. She had just visited a garment factory and saw men's and women's sweaters for only three yuan each. Not only were the styles novel, but the most expensive ones were only a dozen yuan each. If they were wholesaled at such prices, no matter which city they were sold to, she would definitely be making money!
The two did not return to the city. They had to start purchasing goods early tomorrow morning. It was inconvenient to run back and forth, and they also had to find a warehouse to hide their tracks.
It just so happened that the guide's relative had a dilapidated house for rent, so Zhang Shiye made the decision on the spot and spent ten yuan to rent it for ten days. After paying the money and getting the key, the two of them flashed into the space directly in the dilapidated house.
After dinner, Xia Wanyang counted out their savings. In addition to the passbook and change given to her by Zhang Shiye, there was also the money in the iron box that Xia Wanyang's mother gave her when she went to the countryside. However, since the two of them wanted to do something big, this amount of money was definitely not enough.
Finally, at Xia Wanyang's repeated request, Zhang Shiye carried out three large boxes. Each box contained 300 rolls of RMB, and each roll was worth 100 yuan. One box was worth 30,000 yuan, and three boxes were worth 90,000 yuan.
Seeing Zhang Shiye's frown, Xia Wanyang gently stroked him, "Zhang Shiye, why are you so clear about the difference? This money is used as our capital. We will put it back when we make money. You also saw how cheap those things are. In your previous life, your business was so big, you can't see the profit, right? Our 100,000 yuan will multiply several times. If we make money once a year, we don't have to wait until the reform and opening up. We have enough to spend. Why not use it when we have it ready?"
Zhang Shiye sighed, "When I didn't think about my past life, I felt that the few thousand dollars I made in the black market was already a lot. Now that I think about it, this little money is really not worth it. I know the opportunity is good, but when I think about using your dowry, I feel bad and feel incompetent!"
Xia Wanyang had no choice but to coax him: "Who said my husband is incompetent? It's up to you to buy the goods tomorrow. Then we'll go to the port city and walk around. We'll stop at a good place for a few days and sell some of the goods. When we go home, the small treasury will be full, all mine~~"
Although he knew that the little girl was comforting him, Zhang Shiye still felt very happy. How could he be so worthy to have such a good wife!
