Chapter 120
Jian Li stood on the court and raised her middle finger to the sky.
Fifteen thousand, and I have to run four laps around the playground!
The sports teacher handed Jian Li some water with a trembling voice: "Zhou Miaomiao just said her feet hurt... Thank you for your hard work!"
Jian Lisheng took the bottle of water without hesitation: "I am in the front, and I will win if I persevere to the end. Don't think I can get a place back."
The sports committee member quickly responded, "Of course! As long as you can finish the race, that's fine!"
It doesn’t matter if you can’t finish the race, as long as there is someone in the class.
Jian Li shook her arms and legs. She had been practicing boxing for a few months and her physical condition had improved a lot. But no matter how good her physical condition was, she didn't want to run fifteen thousand.
She hates all sports!
Cheng Yu, Song Tao, Lin Shuyao and Wu Feiran were sitting in the audience, each holding a popsicle and shouting "Come on Jian Li!"
After Jian Li moved her hands and feet, as the starting gun sounded, she fell into the middle and back half.
"Come on, Class 1!"
"Come on Class 2!"
"Come on, Jian Li!"
…
The 1,500-mile long-distance race was the last event, and Class 1 was definitely last this time. However, Cheng Yu and a few others in the audience shouted loudly, so everyone joined in the shouting.
In the first lap, there were ten participants in total, and Jian Li came in sixth.
In the second lap, Jian Li came in fifth.
In the third lap, Jian Li came third.
The fourth lap...
Cheng Yu was dazed and said, "Why do I feel like Jian Li is speeding up?"
Wu Feiran also excitedly grabbed Lin Shuyao beside him and said, "It's speeding up!"
Jian Li moved forward steadily, gradually surpassing the second place and getting closer and closer to the first place.
Lin Shuyao murmured, "Do you know that Jian Li is good at running?"
Song Tao burst into tears: "I thought she was a weakling. If I had known she could take first place, I wouldn't have run 3,000 meters!"
Jian Li steadied her pace and got closer and closer to the first place, just one body length away.
The other party obviously didn't want her to overtake him, so he started to speed up and increase the distance between them.
Kong Fei was more nervous than he was in the competition. He couldn't help but stand up to watch, and finally shouted loudly: "Swing your arms! Swing your arms!"
He could tell at a glance that Jian Li's arm swing was not wide enough, so when it came to the final acceleration, she was inevitably not as strong as the first place winner.
Jian Li seemed to hear someone shouting, her heart tightened, and she quickly adjusted her posture.
Kong Fei finally felt relieved when he saw Jian Li gradually surpassing the first place.
The basketball team student next to him scratched his head and said, "Dude, they are playing a game, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to call them baby?"
Kong Fei: ...
Jian Li crossed the finish line.
The students in Class 1 were stunned at first, but after they reacted, they rushed to the audience seats, shouting Jian Li's name.
"Ahhhh, fifteen thousand. First place gets five extra points!"
"We're tied with Class 2!"
"Kill Class 2!"
…
After finishing the race, Jian Li did not dare to stop and walked slowly outside the finish line.
Cheng Yu brought her a towel and water: "You are so amazing!"
The head teacher also squeezed in among the students and patted Jian Li's shoulder excitedly.
"Take a breath, and claim your prize soon."
Jian Li stood in first place and held up the championship medal.
…
With Jian Li's first place, the mood of Class 1, which had been quiet, suddenly became intense, and everyone seemed to be excited.
"There are two more events, one is pole vaulting, and the other is long jump."
“I must bring back a prize!”
Just one more point and we can surpass Class 2!
Everyone rushed to the two competition venues, and Class 2 also held their breath.
Kong Fei originally wanted to go back to class, but was pulled by his classmates to watch the excitement.
Anyway, Class 1 and Class 2 are destined to be the last and second to last, and everyone is curious about who will be the last.
Jian Li changed her clothes and squeezed to the front.
Lin Shuyao was signed up for the long jump event, and she nervously re-tied her shoelaces.
"Class 2, 1.99 meters."
Lin Shuyao has a lot of things to remind her.
"Jump over two meters! Just jump over two meters!"
Lin Shuyao closed his eyes and jumped forward.
"Two meters and one."
In the second jump, Lin Shuyao jumped 2.2 meters.
The referee counted the results: "Third place, Class 1."
Everyone cheered.
“We are not the last!”
In contrast to Class 1, Class 2 was in a depressed mood.
The sports meet is held once a year, so if we want to make a comeback, we have to wait until next year.
…
After the sports meet, the club’s award certificates came out.
Jian Li took second place.
With two certificates in her arms and a medal around her neck, Jian Li went home with her head held high.
Wang Mengmei wiped her medals and certificates carefully and said, "I should have asked your dad to borrow a camera."
Wang Mengmei looked at her daughter. Jian Li had been crying for hunger since she came back and was now wolfing down her food.
But for her own child, Wang Mengmei doesn't mind at all that her daughter eats in a rough manner.
This is her most proud treasure.
****
The sports meet is over and there are only about two months left in the first year of high school.
Jian Li was busy studying, and Jiang Rou also sent her a new contract. After she signed it, she started the monthly update task again.
Wang Mengmei bought her a Walkman, and Jian Li bought her a bunch of English tapes, and she practiced English by listening to the tapes every day.
Jian Li was practicing English that day, and halfway through she heard Jian Feng coming back.
Jian Feng did not come back alone. There was a lot of hustle and bustle outside. Jian Li could not help but open the window and call her dad.
"Dad, what are you doing?"
Jian Feng looked up and saw his daughter, and said with a smile: "Nothing, wait a moment, Dad will bring you something to see."
A heavy piano was carried in through the door by Xiao Shi and Xiao Meng.
Jian Feng wiped his sweat and asked his daughter for credit: "So, didn't you say before that you wanted to practice piano? Dad brought you a piano."
Jian Li's jaw dropped. "I was talking about practicing the piano, but that was a long time ago... Where did you get this piano?"
Jian Feng's eyes flashed with cunning: "My father brought it back."
Jian Li was going crazy: "Why did you accept this? It's so expensive!"
When she was young and ignorant, she always acted on impulse and asked for something when she saw others had it. At that time, Xia Liu was forced by her mother to learn piano, and she just said it casually.
"Take it back quickly!"
A piano costs at least several thousand yuan, so there are many things you can do with that money.
Seeing that his daughter was about to get angry, Jian Feng told her where the piano came from.
"It didn't cost that much. Your uncle Xiaoshi and Uncle Xiaomeng and I got to know a second-hand piano dealer."
Jian Li looked at Jian Feng doubtfully. Recently, Jian Feng always went out early and came back late. Sometimes he was not at home for several days.
Last time, Wang Mengmei had something to do in the store and called the grain and oil store, but Jian Feng was not there. Jian Li got up early in the morning, but sometimes she couldn't find Jian Feng when she got up. In the past month, she had been getting up by herself to exercise.
Jian Li said cautiously, "Dad, don't go down the path of breaking the law. Any business that makes money quickly is written in the criminal law!"
Jian Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Is that how you look at your dad?"
Xiao Shi and Xiao Meng also laughed.
"Brother Feng, Xiaoli feels sorry for you."
"When can I give birth to a daughter?"
"Tell her that we are doing a serious business."
…
Jian Li looked at Jian Feng, and Jian Feng smiled.
"How can I still deceive you?"
"Your uncle Xiaoshi and I have been collecting goods recently."
Jian Feng thought about it and thought that he'd better look for a solution in the old way. Coincidentally, Xiao Shi told him that many factories in the north had closed down this year and their products were distributed to the employees to pay their wages.
Jian Feng began to think about going to the north.
As a result, I didn't know until I went there that the situation there was very bad.
When Jian Feng went there, the coldest place was still frozen.
But the workers gathered around the closed factory to seek justice.
This situation is not just in one place, but in many places.
Jian Feng discussed with Xiao Shi and Xiao Meng and decided to collect a batch of goods there and bring them back to sell.
First, it was the bankrupt thermos and enamel factories, then some clothing and food factories...
Sometimes Jian Feng went with them, and sometimes he didn't.
Jian Feng sighed softly, and that sigh seemed like the helplessness gushing out from the depths of his heart and flowing on the tip of his tongue.
Only after going to the north did he realize how mild the closure of the cotton mills last year was.
In the provinces where a large number of state-owned factories have closed down, it is useless to make a fuss or to find someone. There are so many Xiao Guofu, but not every place has Director Qiu.
Jian Feng didn't want to tell his daughter about these bad things, so he just told her in general terms about his trip to the north to pick up the goods.
He collects all kinds of things, sometimes even second-hand furniture.
This piano was collected.
Originally it could have been sold for several thousand yuan, but when he remembered that his daughter had once said she wanted to learn piano, Jian Feng got excited and took the piano back.
Xiao Shi and Xiao Meng were in a hurry to go home, so Jian Feng sent them out and arranged the next time for the car to go out.
Taking a sack of dried goods such as hazel mushrooms from the cart, Jian Feng said, "Take it and divide it among you."
This time when he went to the North, he certainly would not ignore the business in the store. After Lin Hui made trouble last time, Kong Guorong took that woman away again, and now Jian Feng was still in charge of the store.
Jian Feng proposed to go to the north to collect dried goods, but Kong Guorong just gave him a few contact information and left him alone.
After Jian Feng went there, he discovered that there were really many good things in the north.
Hazel mushroom, Schisandra chinensis, Gastrodia elata, honey...
Jian Feng collected more and more things, including things that Kong Guorong needed and his own private work.
After Jian Feng tried it once, he discovered that these things were so easy to sell!
For example, Schisandra chinensis is processed directly after being received there, and is sold out within a few days after being brought back.
Honey was even more so. Jian Feng brought back dozens of kilograms of it, packed in small bottles, each weighing one kilogram. In less than two days, it was all bought out by Kong Guorong's regular customers.
Jian Feng's heart was pounding. He earned at least 30,000 yuan from this trip alone.
This is thirty thousand dollars!
Jian Feng discussed with Xiao Shi and Xiao Meng, and the three of them decided to take a trip to Qingdao next month.
The customers who bought honey were not short of money. Jian Feng asked them what gifts they gave nowadays, and most of them said dried seafood.
"And crabs. I heard that people in the south are reselling big crab coupons. They'd be great to give as gifts."
“Sea cucumbers and the like are also very popular.”
For those who really want to give gifts, giving simple tea leaves is too ordinary.
It would be better to give crab coupons or dried sea cucumbers, which are more unique.
Jian Feng kept all this in mind, and he gradually found his direction.
That is to make high-end dry goods gifts.
In fact, Kong Guorong's current business also includes such an area, but Kong Guorong's focus is still on grain and oil wholesale.
Jian Feng, however, believes that high-end food ingredients have a huge market.
He also came into contact with some wealthy people. Once people become rich, they no longer care whether the money is worth spending.
As for those mountain products that came out of the mountains, Jian Feng only wanted to ensure that they were good things that he had collected. As for whether the selling price was a few dozen yuan higher or lower, these people did not care.
Jian Feng told Wang Mengmei about his plan: "I want to resign."
