Gu Changmu and a group of brothers are doing very well in Beijing, but he is not satisfied with the status quo and has been looking for new business opportunities.
That day, he learned an important piece of news from his father: goods from coastal areas sell particularly well after being shipped to Beijing.
This made Gu Changmu's eyes light up, and he decided to personally take people to the coastal areas to investigate. If there really was an opportunity for development, they could engage in this industry.
Gu Changmu immediately took action with his brothers.
They first found the street office, obtained relevant certificates, and then embarked on a journey to the coast.
Along the way, everyone was full of anticipation, hoping that this adventure would bring unexpected gains.
On the train, they met some middlemen.
Although the management was strict at that time and these traffickers did not reveal much useful information, it was obvious from their expressions and words that their income was quite considerable.
This made Gu Changmu even more convinced that his judgment was correct and that there must be huge business opportunities waiting to be explored in the coastal areas.
Before leaving, Gu Changmu specifically called Yue Yue to inform her of the purpose of the trip.
Yue Yue knew that he was a man who was not willing to be lonely and was brave enough to venture out, so she said softly: "I like seaside cities very much."
Gu Changmu silently remembered this sentence in his heart. He secretly made up his mind that after arriving at his destination, he must buy a few properties in the coastal city.
This way, not only can they come here anytime to enjoy the beautiful sea view, but if the business goes well, these properties can also become their base.
In Gu Changmu's heart, Yue Yue always occupies a special place.
He understood Yue Yue's yearning for a better life, so he wanted to work hard to realize her wish. He was also confident about the future business prospects.
Yue Yue looked at Gu Changmu seriously and said, "You must be careful and cautious, and not be careless."
Gu Changmu nodded, agreeing with Yue Yue's opinion. He knew that Yue Yue was right. If they didn't pay attention to details, it would be easy for others to find out.
Sure enough, when they arrived at Guangshi, they saw many new and interesting things that they had never seen before and aroused their great interest.
At the same time, Gu Changmu keenly noticed that the environment here was gradually becoming more relaxed. This change made him more convinced that his plan was feasible.
They bought a lot of new things in Guangzhou, which cost them a lot of money. Thinking that the price of these products would increase several times when shipped to Beijing, he gritted his teeth and continued to buy some new products.
In addition, they also hired a professional fleet to help them transport the goods. Because Gu Changmu knew that if they acted alone, they might encounter various dangers on the road. After all, professional matters should be left to professionals.
Therefore, Gu Changmu decided to let the two brothers return to the capital with the convoy and arranged for others to meet them in the capital. He and several other brothers stayed here to investigate the real estate market in Guangzhou.
Nowadays, the housing prices in Guangzhou are very low, and Gu Changmu took the opportunity to buy several high-quality properties. Among them is a small Western-style building by the sea. He imagined that when Yue Yue came here, he could enjoy the sea breeze and watch the sunrise and sunset with her. What a comfortable life that would be!
After Gu Changmu finished his inspection, the remaining few of them took the train back to Beijing. This trip was really tight and fulfilling!
They returned to Beijing a whole day earlier than expected and rested at home. They arrived around ten o'clock in the evening.
I saw a group of people going there to pick up the new products they had carefully selected. The scene was very lively.
The next morning, the sun shone brightly on the streets and alleys. They couldn't wait to start selling their new goods in the alleys, textile factories, cotton textile factories and other places.
The new products were selling like hotcakes! The exquisite electronic watches, in particular, were selling like hotcakes, and demand was so high that they couldn't keep up with supply. In just two days, the hundreds of watches they'd ordered were sold out.
Not only that, other high-quality goods such as radios were also very popular and sold out just as quickly.
This attempt brought them great rewards and they made a lot of money.
After tasting the sweetness, they continued to go to Guangzhou many times, each trip brought in a considerable income. As the business grew bigger, their wealth gradually accumulated.
The days passed one by one, and finally in September 1977, the Ministry of Education of China held a national college entrance examination work conference in Beijing and decided to resume the national college entrance examination that had been suspended for 10 years, and select talents to go to university through a unified examination and admission based on merit.
On October 21, 1977, major Chinese media outlets announced the resumption of the college entrance examination and revealed that this year's college entrance examination would be held nationwide one month later.
This news was like a bombshell, causing an uproar across the country. The educated youth from all over the country seemed to be ignited with the flames of passion, and their excitement was beyond words because the college entrance examination was finally resumed!
This news quickly spread throughout the Qingshan Brigade, and the educated youth suddenly realized how wise it was for Yue Yue and the others to prepare for the future and preview the high school textbooks in advance!
So they flocked to Yue Yue's house, eager to borrow her textbooks and copy down the knowledge in them for their own review.
However, the entire brigade had more than 20 educated youth, but only a handful of textbooks. Faced with such a situation of too many people and too little resources, everyone knew that it would be a long time before they could use these precious textbooks.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
