That evening, Hou Liang happily visited the hospital. Seeing Li Heng, he couldn't hide the joy on his face. "Dude, I made money."
He pulled out a bunch of colorful bills from his pocket, sorted them out and placed them on the table. "Dude, I'm going to ride my tricycle again tomorrow to sell them."
Xu Jing took the money and put it in his pocket. "Remember to take the drink bottles when you sell them this time. You can sell them as scrap later."
"I never knew you had a good sense for making money." Hou Liang sat on the bed and lowered his voice. "Isn't three days too little?"
"How long do you want to earn money?" The sports meet only lasted three days, and that was assuming the school teachers didn't investigate. School was a place for learning, and if someone under him reported him, Hou Liang's good days would be over.
Hou Liang's eyes darted around as he made up his mind. "Brother, come with me. Be my little brother, and I'll help you get rich."
"Come on, what are your methods for making money?" Xu Jing rolled his eyes. "Where are you going to sell it in three days? As a high school student, why are you thinking about this all the time instead of focusing on your studies?"
"I don't," Hou Liang said anxiously. "Hengzi, I'm not saying anything harsh on you, but you're even more timid than a rat. You need to look at the long term. With my qualifications, I can only get into high school at best. I don't even dream of going to college. Instead of wasting my time and youth, I'd better start making money as soon as possible."
"If you want to make money, fine. Just make me your big brother."
"What are you talking about, you little brat? How can I follow you when you have nothing?" Hou Liang pinched his hospital gown with a look of disgust. "When you recover, come help me. I'll split the profit with you 50-50, okay?"
"No." Xu Jing refused bluntly. "Those with different ideals cannot work together."
"Hey, don't beg me when the time comes." Hou Liang left in anger. He came in cheerfully, but left with a slam of the door and angrily.
Li Yumei, who had just entered the room, was completely bewildered. "Did the monkey eat gunpowder?"
"Don't worry about him, he'll come back and beg me." Xu Jing's lips curled up as he took out some money from his pocket. "Big sister, use this to pay for the medical expenses."
"Where did you get the money?" Li Yumei counted carefully, a total of 45. She was shocked on the spot, and pulled him and whispered: "Little brother, don't do anything stupid."
Xu Jing was left in a state of confusion. "Sister, what are you thinking? This is the money Monkey and I made from selling mineral water. It's from a legitimate source, so don't worry."
"You're really smart, little brother." Li Yumei praised him a few times after hearing this, and then said, "How do you make money when you're lying in bed?"
"It's a secret." Xu Jing said with a smile, "Okay, eldest sister, go and pay the money. Don't tell the other sisters about this, or there will be a big fuss. Especially fourth sister, don't tell anyone."
"Your fourth sister may be a bit of a nag, but she has a good heart. Okay, go to bed early. I'll go pay the bill."
Li Yumei was overjoyed. With this money, the frown that had been on her face for many days relaxed and she felt much more relaxed.
The money Hou Liang sent over three consecutive days was enough for Xu Jing to stay in the hospital for a month. When he was about to leave on the third day, Hou Liang couldn't help but say, "Hengzi, do you have any other ways to make money?"
He sold the empty drink bottles and made a few dollars. Although the money was not much, it was still a way to make use of waste.
Hou Liang couldn't sleep because he was worried that he would never get such a good deal in the future. He finally lowered his noble head for money.
"Do you have a yo-yo or something like that at home?"
"Of course I do." Hou Liang came over and chuckled. "What's your idea?"
"Calling you 'big brother' is so rude." Xu Jing slapped his hand away without hesitation and said, "Call me now."
"As long as you help me make money, you're my big brother, isn't it okay for me to call you big brother?"
"Be good." Xu Jing patted his head and said with a smile, "Isn't there a cartoon about yo-yos recently? Spread the word that you bought a genuine copy of 'xxxx'. There aren't many, just five. First come, first served."
Hou Liang curled his lips and said, "How much can you earn with just five people?"
Xu Jing held up a finger. "Ten yuan each."
"How much?" Hou Liang's eyes widened and he lowered his voice. "Isn't selling a pirated copy for ten yuan too much?"
"That's why they have to limit the quantity. Guess how much the genuine one will sell for? Fifty." Looking at Hou Liang's dumbfounded gaze, Xu Jing whispered, "Find the kind of people who are stupid and have a lot of money to scam."
"That's not a good idea." It's a bit unethical to cheat people out of money.
"Don't worry, the genuine ones are the same except for the anti-counterfeiting logo." People's copyright awareness is not strong at this stage, so he can do it secretly while people are still stupid. "Remember, do it secretly, don't let anyone find out."
"Okay, I'll give it a try." Hou Liang half-believed and half-doubted, he spread the word according to Li Heng's plan. And it turned out someone really fell for it. All five yo-yos were snapped up, and someone even complained to him, asking if he could bring more.
Hou Liang was worried for a week, but no one came to see him. He immediately felt relieved and went to the hospital ward.
After this battle, Hou Liang was completely impressed by Li Heng.
Seeing Li Heng get out of bed and stroll around, Hou Liang hurried over to help him. "Oh, how can you go out when you're not well yet?"
"I'm fine now." It was just excessive blood loss, not a terminal illness. The young man had a fast recovery ability, and he had taken a lot of supplements during this period to replenish his energy and blood.
"Boss." Hou Liang chuckled twice and said, "Do you have any other ways to make money?"
Xu Jing smiled but said nothing. Hou Liang was very tactful and took out a big unity note and put it in his hand. "Please, boss, please help me. I don't have any other aspirations, I just want to follow you and make money."
"Sure, sell stickers."
"Sticker?" Hou Liang was stunned.
"Yeah." Xu Jing was bored and watching TV, and he discovered a lot of TV shows that were all the rage back then. "Meteor Garden is a big hit, isn't it? Ask your dad about supply channels, and go to a printing shop and get them printed. Sell the big stickers for a dollar each, and sell them to your female classmates. Oh, and print some more photos of handsome guys, too. They say there are only 20, and the highest bidder gets them."
“Is this reliable?”
Xu Jing slapped him on the back of the head and said with a grin, "What do you think?"
"Just say it, can you please not do it?"
Xu Jing stuffed ten yuan into his pocket. "Count it as my share. If you buy the goods for me, we'll split it 40% to 60%. I'll get 40% and you'll get 60%."
"Hehe, the idea was all yours. How could I make such a big profit? Fifty-fifty, fifty-fifty." Hou Liang was determined to curry favor with him and his attitude was very humble.
"Boss, why are you still studying when you have such a good financial mind? Why don't you just make money with me?"
