In Liu Dayong's office, Zhou Yuan and Liu Dayong signed a long-term supply contract for building materials.
The first order was for 20 tons of cement and 20 tons of steel bars each. At that time, the price of cement was one yuan per bag, and the wholesale price was 20 yuan per ton. The wholesale price of steel was 1,180 yuan per ton.
Cement is not expensive, 20 tons cost only 400 yuan, but rebar is very expensive, 20 tons cost more than 25,000 yuan.
At that time, more than 25,000 yuan was a considerable sum of money. It could buy several houses in a general big city, and even in a city like the capital, one could easily buy a courtyard house.
This was Zhou Yuan's first pot of gold. He had no plans to buy a house for the time being, but planned to use the money for investment, and if possible, to take on a project contracting route.
Be a foreman.
At that time, contractors generally had to have money as a deposit, and many projects did not make much money at the beginning. After signing the construction contract, Party A only paid some material costs or paid a small deposit.
Party B needs to advance most of the money and can only withdraw the advance payment after the project progresses to a certain level.
All payments can only be settled after the project is completed and inspected.
Relatively speaking, during the entire construction period of the project, the contractor has to raise a large part of the funds on his own to promote the construction of the project.
So if you want to be a contractor, you must first be able to raise money.
Zhou Yuan now has his first pot of gold, although the amount is not large, he can continue to sell building materials and accumulate more funds.
The time stipulated in the contract is 5:00 p.m., delivery and payment will be made in person, and the payment will be settled in person.
So before 3:00, Zhou Yuan called six cars and waited in a deserted place outside the construction site. He originally thought it would be troublesome to load the cement and steel bars from the warehouse into the cars.
When I opened the door of the warehouse, I found that there were not only forklifts but also cranes. It was so convenient.
Before his rebirth, when he was selling building materials, he passed the forklift and crane operator licenses. Now that he has been reborn, he doesn't have the certificates, but the skills are still there, and the car he drove before is the same one he used to drive.
It is still very easy to operate now.
In just one hour, all the necessary items were hoisted onto the car, steadily, safely and smoothly.
Six large trucks pulled all the goods to Liu Dayong's construction site. Liu Dayong was very satisfied and immediately asked his men to unload the goods.
After unloading the goods and counting the quantity, he immediately took out the check, filled in the amount, signed his name, stamped it, and handed it to Zhou Yuan.
Holding a check for more than 20,000 yuan, Zhou Yuan was still a little excited.
Liu Dayong joked, "Zhou Yuan, you made such a huge fortune in no time. You must have made a lot of money, right? You should treat me to a meal."
"Uncle, I have something to do today. I will definitely treat you to a meal next time."
Zhou Yuan looked at the amount on it, then checked the signature and seal. After confirming that they were correct, he put the check into his pocket and smiled.
"Next time is fine, but I want a big meal." Liu Dayong patted Zhou Yuan's shoulder and laughed.
Zhou Yuan also laughed.
The brothers who had worked together before suddenly became more serious when they saw Zhou Yuan.
I was so envious of others because I had a check for more than 20,000 yuan in my hand.
Seeing everyone's eyes, Zhou Yuan suddenly realized that he had to leave quickly and find a place to stay where no one knew.
As a reborn person, Zhou Yuan knew very well how dangerous it was to carry a check of more than 20,000 yuan in 1985.
They say there are all kinds of birds in a big forest. There are nearly 200 people on the construction site. Who can guarantee that there are no people who are blinded by money and take risks?
Thinking of this, Zhou Yuan hurriedly said goodbye to Liu Dayong and his fellow workers, and while it was still early, he strode out of the construction site.
When he got to a deserted place outside, he patted his head and said to the system, "My brother is in danger tonight. You have to work with me to find a solution. Where should I stay?
You can't just watch me die in the wilderness and become a victim of money.
I just made my first fortune after my rebirth, and I haven't even had a single day of good life. I'm unwilling to let it be wiped out in an instant like this."
The system quickly popped up a menu in his head: "It's easy, just live in the warehouse. Hide in the warehouse you carry with you, and even the gods won't be able to find you."
Zhou Yuan finished reading the menu and was about to ask where the warehouse was when he suddenly found a door in front of him. The doorway was pitch black, but there was a light inside.
He slipped in and the warehouse door closed again immediately.
Zhou Yuan was very excited at first when he hid in the warehouse, but when he touched his stomach and found it rumbling, he started to panic.
Hiding inside is safe, but what can we eat? Forget food, there's not even water. What should we do?
If you hide in here for a long time, you will either starve to death or die of thirst.
It’s over.
What to do if you have nothing to eat or drink?
As I recall, my warehouse was full of building materials, there was no food, and only one bathroom.
Thinking of the bathroom, Zhou Yuan suddenly jumped up excitedly.
Isn't there running water in the bathroom?
If there is no food, at least there is water to drink!
Thinking of this, he ran to the bathroom in two steps, turned on the faucet and drank three big gulps.
“Wow, that feels great!”
Zhou Yuan suddenly discovered that tap water tasted so good, much better than the bottled water he drank before his rebirth.
After drinking the water, Zhou was planning to find a place to lean against. Since he had nothing to eat, he would move less and wouldn't be that hungry, right?
When he walked out of the bathroom, he suddenly found that there was a kitchen next to it. There was nothing in the kitchen, but there was a large refrigerator near the corner.
When Zhou Yuan saw the refrigerator, he became excited. He ran over and opened the door. Wow, that was so cool!
