844: Make good use of ocean space
Xu Ying was very happy to receive Yu Jiahui's support. He looked at the piles of banknotes in front of him and said to Yu Jiahui:
"Old man, when I make money, I will buy you antiques and a courtyard house."
Yu Jiahui laughed when he heard this and said jokingly:
"Hey, from now on I'll rely on you to support me. I'll listen to you in everything. Who lets you make money?"
Xu Ying rolled her eyes at Yu Jiahui:
"Tsk, even if I don't make money, you still have to listen to me?"
"Yes, yes, our family will always listen to you!"
The two old men and women were in the house imagining about their twilight years. Xu Ying looked forward to the future as if she had a second spring in life, imagining herself bringing home large sums of money.
It’s exciting just thinking about it.
After making a plan, Xu Ying divided the money into three parts and took out 650 to return to his daughter. The money used to buy mountain products in Northeast China was all from Xiaoye, and now that he had earned money, he wanted to pay it back.
He took out another 700 yuan and prepared to deposit it in the bank. If Yu Jiahui happened to come across an antique he wanted to buy one day, he could withdraw the money at any time to buy the antique.
The remaining few dozen dollars in change are kept for household expenses.
The old couple has basically no savings these days.
Food, clothing and other daily expenses are all expenses at home. The children are growing up and need to eat good food, such as eggs, fish, meat, milk, etc. As long as they can be bought, we try our best to ensure that they do not go short of food. Food alone costs a lot.
In addition, Yu Jiahui often bought some ancient coins, calligraphy and paintings, and jade for his home in recent years. Yu Jiahui bought a lot of those messy and broken things in the eyes of others, including old screens and old furniture from a hundred years ago, and even carved windows removed from ancient houses.
These things may seem like worthless junk to others, but Yu Jiahui thinks they are very valuable. As long as he happens to come across them and can afford them, he will buy them.
Some things can't be placed at home, so we put them on the yacht.
So the old couple has hardly saved any money over the years and basically lives paycheck to paycheck.
Sometimes if you buy a few more things in a month, you might end up going hungry.
Seeing that he bought a lot of things, Yu Xiaoye guessed that he didn't have much money left, so he would take the initiative to stuff money into his hands.
Although his daughter would advise him that collecting antiques was a serious matter and that money should be spent when necessary, Yu Jiahui always felt that it would be embarrassing to take money from his children.
Wouldn't it be better if the old couple could start their own business and earn money, and buy antiques with their own money?
So Yu Jiahui also supports Xu Ying in pursuing career and making money.
As for himself, he will remain in the machinery factory for the time being. After all, his job is a guarantee and he cannot give it up easily.
At present, the business of the whole family is still in its infancy. We cannot all take risks. It is safer to leave one person behind to stabilize the situation.
In this way, he can attack or defend. If one of the entrepreneurs fails, at least he, as the head of the family, still has a job to ensure food and clothing for the whole family - of course, this is the worst-case scenario. Given their family's current situation, it shouldn't be that bad.
After making a preliminary business plan, Xu Ying didn't wait for her daughter to come over. The next day, she handed all the housework to Cuihua. She took advantage of lunch break to go to Peking University and Tsinghua University to discuss the matter with Yu Xiaoye.
Xu Ying has become accustomed to discussing all matters at home, big or small, with Xiaoye, especially the use of space for business, which requires her daughter's consent.
When he arrived at Peking University and Tsinghua University, the school was on summer vacation, but Yu Xiaoye still had to do research in a scientific research group. The research laboratory was in the teaching building of the Chemical Engineering Department.
After finding out the location of the Chemical Engineering Department's teaching building, Xu Ying waited at the stairs.
After school, the students in the research group came down the stairs, and Xu Ying saw the young and beautiful Yu Xiaoye in the crowd.
Before she could call her daughter's name, Yu Xiaoye saw her, was stunned for a moment, turned away from her classmates, and walked towards Xu Ying:
"Mom, why are you here? Did something happen at home?"
"No, no, don't worry. I just want to discuss something else with you. Come on, let's go out and talk. I'll treat you to dinner today."
Yu Xiaoye was originally quite worried, but seeing Xu Ying's energetic appearance, it didn't seem like anything had happened at home, so he felt relieved:
"What's the big deal that made you come all the way to the school to see me?"
"Of course it's a good thing."
After hearing what Xu Ying said, Yu Xiaoye was completely relieved.
The mother and daughter came to a small restaurant opposite the school and sat down. Xu Ying took the initiative and ordered two bowls of mutton soup noodles and two cold dishes.
Seeing her mother's audacity in spending money, Yu Xiaoye asked with a smile:
"Mom, what's the good news? Tell me quickly."
Xu Ying didn't say anything first. He took out a wrapped handkerchief from his pocket and quietly handed it to Yu Xiaoye:
"Bao, this is the 650 yuan I earned from buying mountain products in the Great Northern Wilderness. I'm giving it to you."
"Mom, keep this money. I don't want it." Yu Xiaoye pushed the money back to Xu Ying. Then he thought of something and asked, "Hey, did you sell those mountain products?"
Xu Ying looked very proud:
"Yes, I sold them at home. I sold them all in a few days and made back my money with interest. I'll return the money to you. I still have more than 700 yuan in my hand."
"Sure, Mom, you've made a lot of money."
"Hehe, so your dad and I don't lack money. You keep this money and pack it up quickly. There are a lot of people here, so don't let anyone see it."
Yu Xiaoye knew her mother wasn't being polite to her, and it wasn't convenient for her to push around in the restaurant, so she took the handkerchief.
"Okay, I'll keep the money for now. If you need it again, just tell me."
Seeing her daughter put the money away, Xu Yingcai told her about her business:
"Xiao Ye, let me tell you, after making money this time, I now know how to make money. It turns out that doing business is not as complicated as I thought, and it earns much more than working honestly in a factory.
Now you all have your own careers to be busy with, so I thought, I will do some business in the future. I will not do anything else, just do the
What do you think of the fish business?
This is my plan. I will tell my family that I am going out of town to purchase goods, and ask you to bring me to the space. I will stay in the space to work, and then you can do whatever you want. I won't affect you.
In a few days, when I have almost all the fish ready, you can bring me out. I will then sell the fish and pretend that I imported it from out of town. This way, no one will suspect anything, including your eldest brother, second brother, your second sister-in-law, and the neighbors. Do you think this idea is feasible?"
Yu Xiaoye didn't expect that her mother, who had been doing laundry, cooking and taking care of children at home all these years, suddenly became career-oriented and wanted to do business to make money. It really surprised her.
"Does my dad know what you're thinking?"
"I know, I know. I told him about it first, and he supported me in doing so. That's why I came to discuss it with you. What do you think? Is it okay?"
"Of course!" Yu Xiaoye was pleasantly surprised, "Actually, this ocean space of mine has been vacant for all these years without being properly utilized, which is indeed a bit of a waste.
But I am too busy to take care of so many things, and I am also afraid of arousing suspicion. However, the situation should be much better in the next few years. Mom, if you are not afraid of trouble and are not tired, you can develop my space with my dad. My dad is also willing to do this.
And your uncle-in-law also likes fishing, but he has never found a place to show his talent. If you really want to do it, we can help you."
