Chapter 675 I don't want to bother with her anymore
When the family gathered together for dinner in the evening, Jiang Xia said to Zhou Chenglei, "After my second brother moves into his new house, the telephone on the second floor will be moved directly from the balcony to his living room. This way it will be convenient for him to use the phone. I specially asked the staff to leave a long line."
Jiang Xia bought the rest of the bundle of wire, intending to pull it from the second floor to Zhou Chengsen's house when the time comes.
Tian Caihua was anxious after hearing this. Jiang Xia had just given her way of making money to the second room. She hurriedly said, "Second brother's house is so close to yours, how can he use a phone there? Just walk a few steps over and use the phone! Xiaoxia, please move the phone on your second floor to my room!"
Zhou Chengxin was annoyed when he heard this: "Can you not be so outrageous?"
He really can think of ways to take advantage of anything! Tian Caihua glared at him: "How am I being ridiculous? Isn't what I said the truth? The two houses are so close, is it necessary to move the extension there? It's different if it's moved to our house. If Xiaoxia needs help, I'll be there to help! And Xiaoxia, I've thought of a way to make money..."
Jiang Xia interrupted her: "Sister-in-law, our houses are a bit far apart, we can't do this..."
Zhou's mother: "Yes, the line is not that long."
Tian Caihua: "You can buy a telephone line and connect it! Can't you just extend it? I'll pay for the telephone line myself. A Lei can repair everything, right? A Lei, help me extend the telephone line."
Zhou Chenglei was peeling shrimp for Jiang Xia. After listening to the conversation, he said, "I won't answer it."
Jiang Xia: "Sister-in-law, our two homes are too far away. It would be bad if the people from the post office found out. They would fine us."
Their house and Zhou Chengsen's house are close to each other and share a wall, so it is not impossible to say that they are one family. Jiang Xia's house can be said to be the house where his parents live.
Moreover, the distance is only a dozen meters, so you can just pull the telephone line back.
But the straight-line distance between them and Tian Caihua's house was several hundred meters, so how could this be possible? Tian Caihua's request was too outrageous.
Zhou Chengxin: "Take it! Can't you just let your sister-in-law pay for the fine? She has money."
Tian Caihua: “…”
“Is this a fine?”
Zhou Chengxin: "What else? We are so far away, no one will believe you if you say you are a family. If you want to install a phone, we can apply for one. But if you install a phone, you don't have anyone to call, so what's the point? A Lei and Xiao Xia installed a phone because they run a factory."
People in the production team said that five out of ten calls from the production team were for Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei.
It is not good to always occupy public resources.
"Apply for it yourself? Spend so much money to install a phone? I don't even need to make a phone call in a year. Do you think I'm stupid?"
Alas, she began to regret not building the house here! It would be better to be next to Jiangxia!
Now all the benefits are taken by the second wife.
Zhou Chengsen didn't have to pay a penny to get a phone call! And the second child lived right next to Jiangxia, living in Jiangxia's house, and even the shipping was better than theirs.
She also wanted to move in and live with Jiang Xia.
Tian Caihua still didn't give up. The telephone was already installed. Would the people from the post office still come to her house?
She then said to Jiang Xia, "Xiao Xia, I have an idea for making money! From now on, if anyone comes to our house to borrow our phone, we will charge them for the phone call. We will charge an extra 20 cents per minute. If you don't have time, I can help you by moving the extension to my house. We will split the money we earn. You may not even have to pay for the phone calls in the future."
Jiang Xia shook his head: "Forget about making money from this. You can't make much money by relying on people in the village to make phone calls. If you open a small store in the city or town and install a few public phones, you can make a lot of money in the future."
Tian Caihua: "I don't have time to open a small shop in town, let alone in the city. I can only make money at home!"
Jiang Xia: "It's not practical to open it at home."
Tian Caihua thought of the good grandfather who made a lot of money running a small shop in the town, and couldn't help asking again: "Do you think you can make money by running a small shop in the town and installing a telephone?"
"Yes, and the profit is not less. It may even increase year by year. You may earn back the money you spent on installing the phone in one or two years."
Don't underestimate the speed at which a convenience store makes money. In a few years, when everyone has a pager, public telephones will make even more money.
Especially since their city is a future metropolis, it is developing very fast and has many opportunities. Every year, more and more outsiders come to work here.
When Jiangxia went to the train station, he clearly felt that the passenger flow at the train station this year was significantly higher than last year.
After hearing this, Tian Caihua was a little tempted. He might as well open a shop and ask her parents to help look after the shop, and they could split the profits equally.
This way, her parents wouldn't have to complain about being poor in front of her, saying that they didn't have money to build a house and that her younger brothers hadn't married.
She was asked openly or secretly to invite her elder and second brothers to go fishing at sea or help raise fish.
She dare not invite again!
Invite her parents and think of it as your daughter showing filial piety to them!
"So where in town do you think it would be best to open it?"
"Near the town bus station! Isn't that the busiest street?"
Jiang Xia thought that in two years the city's telephone installation fee would be raised across the city, and it would be more expensive than it is now, and even more expensive in the 1990s.
She reminded Tian Caihua: "If you want to install a telephone, then apply for it in the next two years and see if you can get it. If you wait two years, I think it will be more expensive."
In order to install the telephone as quickly as possible, Jiangxia installed the telephone in the name of a food processing factory and workshop, and the registration fee was more expensive.
Tian Caihua looked at Jiang Xia: "How do you know it will be more expensive in two years?"
Is there any inside information? Jiang Xia knew it from a book, but he couldn't say that, so he said, "Didn't the newspaper say last year that our city cooperated with foreign companies to introduce more advanced program-controlled switch equipment? You see, my phone is a program-controlled phone, and there is no need for manual transfer when making calls. It's just that it's still in the trial stage, which is the time for the new and old equipment to replace each other, so the initial installation fee has not increased. I guess in a year or two, when the equipment is fully built, in order to make back the investment money faster and build a larger telephone network, the price will increase."
Zhou Chengxin heard this and said, "Why don't we apply for a telephone as well?" so that Tian Caihua wouldn't try to use the extension at his fourth brother's house all day.
Tian Caihua refused outright: "What's the point of having a telephone at home? Who do you need to call? We haven't needed to make a phone call for ten years. What's the point of having one? Besides, if you want to make a phone call, will you break your legs or die of exhaustion if you walk a few steps? You are the only one who knows how to spend money!"
Zhou Chengxin: “…”
He was too lazy to care about this woman anymore!
Tian Caihua pulled Jiang Xia aside and asked him in detail about opening a convenience store.
Seeing that she really wanted to open a convenience store, which was indeed a way to make money, Jiang Xia told her her ideas and how to run it.
Here I come, this chapter makes up for last night~
