She originally thought that her suggestion would be approved by Yuan Fangguo, but unexpectedly she saw Yuan Fangguo shaking his head.
"Autumn clothes are a bit heavy, not as light as summer clothes. Although the profit is considerable, the consumption level in the rural areas below is not high. I thought, why don't we buy some mooncakes to sell."
When Li Chunli heard this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.
She nodded affirmatively. "Fang Guo, you're full of ideas. Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. We should buy some mooncakes to sell. Are you free these two days? Let's go to the nearby mooncake factories."
Yuan Fangguo told Li Chunli that he had no classes tomorrow morning and his afternoon classes were all after four o'clock, so he could go to the market for a while.
The two hit it off immediately.
This time, Li Chunli told him that she knew a fellow villager who had a tricycle, and they could borrow it for two days, and then she could treat him to a meal.
After chatting for a while in Li Chunli's store, several groups of students came to buy stationery. Seeing that she was also busy, Yuan Fangguo did not stay any longer.
The next day after having breakfast at school, Yuan Fangguo came to Li Chunli's shop. Li Chunli put on some light makeup, picked up her bag, and took him to the nearby mooncake factory.
Although the information in this era was not as fast as that in later years, they soon had an idea after asking around. Especially in a big city like Chengdu with a population of more than 10 million, it was relatively easy to find a few mooncake factories.
They decided to give up on the branded mooncake factories. Firstly, those mooncakes must be very expensive; secondly, the other party looked down on their small-scale business and had fixed distributors in the province.
"I think we can visit those new mooncake factories," said Yuan Fangguo.
"Fang Guo, what is your reason?" Li Chunli is the type of person who asks questions when she doesn't understand.
"My reason is very simple. The market for new mooncake factories has definitely not been opened up very well. They need guerrillas like us to open up the market for them. At the same time, their prices will definitely not be too high," Yuan Fangguo analyzed.
Li Chunli thought about it and felt that what Yuan Fangguo said made some sense. She couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
Hard work pays off. After searching for a while, they finally found a factory that started producing mooncakes last year.
When the factory sales manager heard that they were going to wholesale one thousand mooncakes to sell, they were very happy. Even when Yuan Fangguo bargained with them, they accepted the price proposed by Yuan Fangguo.
Each mooncake costs fifty cents.
However, they did not take the goods immediately, but only paid a deposit of fifty yuan.
The two parties agreed that they would come to pick up the goods at seven o'clock on Saturday morning.
After leaving the mooncake factory, Li Chunli took Yuan Fangguo to the fellow villager's home again.
This fellow is a thin man who mainly delivers goods to the clothing store on weekdays.
Yuan Fangguo took a test drive and became familiar with the performance of this gasoline-powered tricycle.
"You can use it on the weekend." The fellow villager said generously.
"I'll fill up your tank and treat you to a meal later," said Li Chunli.
"When you become a big boss in the future, introduce me to more business deals." The fellow villager joked.
Li Chunli smiled and said there was no problem.
After leaving her fellow villager's home, Li Chunli went to the clothing store to clear out the goods in the afternoon; Yuan Fangguo returned to school alone.
When they parted ways, Li Chunli, who had walked a few steps, suddenly called him and then handed him a key to her house with a serious look on her face.
"I saw you waited for me for quite a long time yesterday. From now on, you have the key and can come in anytime. If you leave something behind or take something out, just write a small note for me on the counter."
Li Chunli's action undoubtedly told Yuan Fangguo that she had basic trust in him.
Yuan Fangguo would naturally not let Li Chunli down for this trust that came from the emotional foundation of being a fellow villager. The two had talked a lot before, and he felt that Li Chunli was really a very good woman, and also a very difficult woman.
After returning to school, it was not yet time for class. After thinking about it, Yuan Fangguo decided to go back to the dormitory to rest before going to the classroom.
However, when he just reached the door of the dormitory building, he saw Gao Dapeng and Lai Xiaojun coming down.
"Where are you going?" Yuan Fangguo asked casually.
"The school's living allowance has arrived," Lai Xiaojun said. "It's already posted on the bulletin board. Let's go take a look."
Gao Dapeng nodded. He was very short of money right now and needed this living allowance to tide him over temporarily.
"When did this happen?" Yuan Fangguo was very surprised. He had never heard of such a thing.
"Wasn't it there when we filled out the form last time?" Lai Xiaojun said, "That was an important reference."
"Ah? No way." Yuan Fangguo was very puzzled. He had no idea about this matter at all.
He remembered to make it clear that when filling out the form, he wrote down the family's annual income as 700 yuan, which was considered very low.
"Let's go and take a look together." After saying this, Yuan Fangguo followed Lai Xiaojun towards the bulletin board.
When they arrived, a lot of students had already gathered around the bulletin board. These students were dressed very simply, and it was obvious that they were all from rural areas. Children from the city would not care about these things.
"I get a subsidy of 15 yuan a month." Yang Xuexiu spoke in a loud voice. Yuan Fangguo and the others heard his voice before they even got close.
"Xue Xiu, help me take a look." A petite female student couldn't squeeze in at all, so she said anxiously.
"You are 14 yuan, Chunhua," said Yang Xuexiu.
"Thanks"
After reading it, Yang Xuexiu was about to squeeze out of the crowd, but unexpectedly she saw Yuan Fangguo and the others.
"Gao Dapeng, you also make 15 yuan a month." Yang Xuexiu said.
15 yuan is the highest standard. If you live frugally, it should be enough for ten days' living expenses.
Gao Dapeng grinned and whispered thank you to Yang Xuexiu.
"Yuan Fangguo, you have 7 yuan."
"Lai Xiaojun, here are 10 yuan."
Yang Xuexiu told them the amount of their respective subsidies.
Yuan Fangguo glanced at Lai Xiaojun next to him and asked with a puzzled look, "Xiaojun, what is your family income?"
“12.
Yuan Fangguo was even more surprised this time. He stared with wide eyes and said, "That's not right. I wrote 700 yuan."
"No way?" Lai Xiaojun couldn't believe it. Yuan Fangguo's family conditions were not as good as Lai Xiaojun's, but Lai Xiaojun's subsidy was higher than his.
