That night, Ye Beiping went to Wu Di's house and squeezed into a bed with his good friend.
"Beiping, have you figured out how to make money yet?"
"Um."
Upon hearing Ye Beiping's response, Wu Di immediately sat up and said, "Have you thought it through? Tell me quickly how you plan to make money."
Still half asleep, Ye Beiping struggled to open one eye and said speechlessly, "We'll talk about it tomorrow."
After saying that, he went to sleep.
He had already figured out how to make money.
It's just that I can't say right now. After all, in this era where even small businesses aren't allowed, there are opportunities to make money everywhere, and gold is everywhere.
Wu Di, who looked bored, muttered something and lay down to continue sleeping.
Early the next morning.
Ye Beiping went home briefly, told Tao Qiuyan he was going to make money, and then left.
Without waiting for Tao Qiuyan to ask any further questions, Ye Beiping left immediately.
"Mom, I just saw Beiping. Where did he go? Isn't he going to eat breakfast?" Ye Xiaoxin came out of the house, frowned, and asked in the direction where Ye Beiping disappeared.
Tao Qiuyan pursed her lips and said, "I don't know, he just said he wouldn't be coming back for a while."
"What?" Ye Xiaoxin was stunned for a moment, then immediately thought of the 5,000 yuan incident yesterday and said angrily, "That brat actually went to make money? 5,000 yuan is not five yuan, it's not that easy."
The mother and daughter sighed and whispered to each other for a while.
Hearing a noise from inside the house, he immediately shut up.
Su Xinyi was puzzled when she didn't see Ye Beiping at breakfast.
She found an opportunity to ask Ye Xiaoxin and learned that Ye Beiping had gone to make money.
Su Xinyi asked worriedly, "Did he say where he was going?"
"No." Ye Xiaoxin's attitude towards Su Xinyi has become much colder now. If her younger brother really gets into trouble over 5,000 yuan, then getting married is pointless.
Seeing Ye Xiaoxin's cold attitude, Su Xinyi could only purse her lips and go back to her room on her own.
But she was constantly worried about where Ye Beiping had gone.
county seat.
Ye Beiping and Wu Di strolled around the streets for a while, and Wu Di asked, "Beiping, is it really not called Monkey?"
He's asked this question countless times.
"It's no use calling now."
If Wu Di hadn't insisted on coming along, Ye Beiping wouldn't have even bothered to invite him.
First of all, without a letter of introduction, wandering around the county town like this is actually very dangerous; you might get taken away for re-education.
Wu Guangfa will have to worry again then.
"All right."
Seeing that Wu Di had stopped asking the question, Ye Beiping pointed ahead and said, "Go this way."
"Where are we going?"
You'll know when you get there.
The two arrived at the gate of a brewery. Looking at the sparse number of workers, Wu Di asked, puzzled, "Beiping, what are we doing at a brewery?"
Ye Beiping simply smiled at this.
In his past life, he remembered that Jiangshan Brewery's beer was oversold and expensive, which caused the factory to be unable to pay wages.
Many workers even ended up using beer from the factory to offset their wages.
The timeline is roughly around this time.
In the late 1970s, beer was not something everyone could afford; it was several times more expensive than soft drinks.
Ye Beiping believed that if he could help Jiangshan Brewery with its problems, he would certainly be willing to pay a substantial amount.
A few thousand dollars is just a drop in the ocean for such a large brewery.
“This brewery is about to go bankrupt. If we can solve their beer sales problem, we are guaranteed to make a lot of money.”
"What?" Wu Di looked at Ye Beiping in disbelief.
I never expected they were here to sell beer.
But......
Before Wu Di could even voice his doubts, Ye Beiping had already taken out a cigarette from his pocket and walked towards the gatekeeper.
Looking at the disheveled-looking man inside, he smiled and offered him a cigarette, saying, "Uncle, is business at your brewery not doing too well?"
Upon hearing this, the gatekeeper looked up at Ye Beiping, curled his lip, and said, "They haven't paid wages for three months. Do you think things are going well?"
His tone was full of resentment.
In this day and age, not receiving a salary for three months is a serious matter. Some people might not even be able to afford food, let alone go out and spend money.
The only advantage was that factories in that era had employee canteens, so meals were free.
Ye Beiping was very happy to hear this.
He was afraid that Jiangshan Brewery might not go bankrupt. As long as it was on the verge of bankruptcy, he believed he could definitely pull the factory back.
He offered the cigarette closer to the gatekeeper and said, "Uncle, if your beer isn't selling, why don't you look for other ways?"
"Another way?" The gatekeeper glanced at the cigarette Ye Beiping offered, his eyes lit up, and he took it and lit it. "Even the leaders can't do anything, what can we think of?"
He took a drag and exhaled a smoke ring.
Seeing that Ye Beiping was quite sensible, even offering him such expensive cigarettes, the gatekeeper said a few more words: "Young man, are you here looking for a job? I advise you to give up. Countless people here want to leave, but they haven't been paid yet, otherwise they would have quit long ago."
He sighed and muttered a few words, and you could tell that the gatekeeper was also quite resentful.
In response, Ye Beiping rolled his eyes and grinned, "Uncle, if I can solve your factory's sales problem, is there a reward?"
After all, he wasn't here to look for a job; what's the point of earning just a few dozen yuan a month?
