Chapter 14 Being Generous
During lunch, Fang Mingche talked about his experience this time. He told me everything except the private delivery.
When his family heard that it was so hard and dangerous, they couldn't help but change color.
Their minds were still stuck on the long-distance drivers making money. As for the danger and hardship, they had heard about it, but not so specific.
Fang's father said, "Will you go next time?"
"Well, the most dangerous one is the one before the New Year. The New Year is the most peaceful, and the bandits also want to celebrate the New Year."
Fang Minghua sighed, "I only saw that Mingfeng had a lot of money, but I didn't expect that he had to sleep on the gas tank outside."
Fang Mingfeng is a long-distance truck driver on the surface. Now everyone knows how to make money!
His boss is in the black market, and there are no private businesses openly now.
He can do both black and white business. And this time, the police will turn a blind eye to the New Year's goods. Otherwise, nothing can be bought during the New Year, and the people will make a fuss.
Drivers like Fang Mingfeng can make some money by carrying goods.
Fang Jian, the eight-year-old nephew, said, "Uncle, that day someone punctured your tire with a caltrop, didn't you almost get into trouble?"
Fang Mingche nodded, "Of course not!"
If he really got into trouble, his entire fortune would definitely be robbed. Then it would be difficult for him to carry a debt of 700.
Even if he lived frugally, it would take at least three years to pay it off with his salary
alone. If he wanted to bring goods again, he would not have the opportunity and he would inevitably be afraid of encountering trouble again.
So, the profit is big, but the risk is also big. If you get into trouble once, you will have to pay for it for a long time.
Last time, my cousin and his brother-in-law lost part of the goods and compensated according to the proportion.
Unless, he ignored his cousin at the time and drove the car back.
If it really came to the point where it could not be saved, he would definitely drive the car to bring the goods back.
This is what my cousin asked for.
He estimated that if he went down, he would at most be beaten. But it should not be to the point where all nine drivers were killed.
As long as the goods and the car were saved, it would be fine.
Although he was a little drunk when he got off the car, he still considered the worst case scenario.
Fang Minghua said, "I heard that Mingfeng would bring goods to others privately every time he went to Guangzhou to make extra money."
"I don't know. I was guarding the payment for the goods at the hotel. He did go out during those two days. Besides, he was worried about being robbed on the road. Brother Mingfeng didn't seem to bring much stuff, and he only had things on his body. The empty space under the driver's seat was filled with the boss's goods."
Fang Minghua said, "You must not know it for your first time. But you can try it next time."
Fang Mingche shook his head, "It's too scary on the road, I don't dare. Even next time, who knows if there will be bandits who do the opposite?"
So, my cousin might not make as much money as I do this time. After all, he can make a steady income .
So the amount each time is a little less.
Besides, he also went to play with women, and the price is probably not cheap.
After eating, Fang Mingche gave his father and mother ten yuan each.
"Dad, Mom, this is the money for this year's New Year! I made some money this time, so it's more. Don't refuse, I'll go again after the New Year."
He was too lazy to push it back and forth with his parents.
If he gave the same as in previous years, when he was not around, his brother and sister-in-law would keep complaining in their ears, and his parents would listen to them.
Besides, he did make a lot of money this time.
In short, if he could do it again, many things could be solved with money, so he would solve them with money.
It can save a lot of unnecessary trouble!
Then he gave his nephews Fang Jian, Fang Kang and niece Fang Fang eight yuan each, instead of the four yuan he gave in previous years.
The eldest sister-in-law felt a little guilty. Including her five yuan, the brother-in-law had taken out forty-nine yuan.
So all the money was spent on this hard trip? Fortunately, they had to go there again after the New Year, and it was said that it was not as dangerous as this trip.
She discussed with Fang Minghua privately, "Let's give Yanyan a big red envelope this year."
However, they could only make do with the money given by the brother-in-law.
There are three people in their family, and there is only Yanyan in the brother-in-law's family. How come they earn all the money!
Fang Minghua nodded, "Give her nine yuan, and you can't skip the two elders."
However, they can't give the two elders money for the New Year. Everything in the family is in the hands of the two elders. Usually,
Yuan Shufen has to ask her mother-in-law for money to buy a bag of salt.
As for the New Year's money given by the brother-in-law to the children, it is just enough to pay the children's tuition.
In fact, she also wants to keep the money she earns, but she can't make much money just by earning work points.
There is no detailed account at home, but it is true that their family of five should have taken advantage.
If she can make more money in the future, it would be great to let her be the boss of the family.
Fang Minghua disagreed, "When can a farmer make money?"
"Then who told you not to study hard? You have the same father and mother, how dumber can you be than the second child?"
Fang Minghua laughed twice, "If I had a stable job, would I still look for you? I don't know how to look for the beautiful female educated youth from the city? She is educated."
After dinner that night, Fang Mingfeng and his father came to sit together.
Fang's father greeted his cousin when he saw him. This is his cousin, and they all have the same grandfather.
"Why is the third brother here?"
Fang Mingche's uncle said, "This time, we went out, thanks to your Mingche's cleverness. Of course I have to come to thank you! I'll also bring you some New Year's goods."
"That's as they should be. They went out together, isn't it for the sake of brotherhood? And Mingfeng also took good care of his brothers along the way. I heard that Mingfeng slept in the fuel tank for six nights. I'm talking about Mingche, why don't you know how to take a shift?"
Fang Mingfeng said, "He is a scholar and has no experience. I'm an old driver. I used to drive alone when no one took over."
But I didn't drive so far alone before. This is too far, and I have to take shifts!
As he was talking, Fang Mingche came back from outside with his daughter.
After just eating, the eldest sister-in-law quickly cleaned up the dishes and went to wash them.
His parents also said that he was tired after going out, so he asked him to take Yanyan out for a walk to digest the food.
This is because the money is paid in place, so the treatment is naturally good!
Fang Mingche saw the visitors and said, "Third uncle, brother Mingfeng, you are here."
Third uncle said, "Yes. Mingche, third uncle didn't expect you to be so calm at the critical moment. Come on, come on, sit down! Old Seven, you gave birth to a son like Mingche, and you can wait to enjoy the rest of your life. He will definitely do something."
Fang Minghua, who was standing aside and mixing water for his cousin, felt very upset.
Is he just mediocre?
Fang Mingfeng said, "Dad, Seventh Uncle, Mingche is going to take the college entrance examination to BJ. If he passes the exam, the ancestral graves of our Fang family will be filled with smoke!"
The New Year's goods they brought this time were quite impressive. It was mainly to thank the cousin, who was equivalent to saving himself.
In previous years, their family had never sent New Year's goods to the Seventh Uncle's house.
In addition, "My brother-in-law will come to thank you later. Your sister-in-law originally wanted to come with us, but she has several children to take care of at home. I will let her come with her brother later."
"You don't have to be so polite! I'll take his place, and I have income myself."
