Chapter 181: A teacher must have a name, and actions must be righteous
Qin Hengzhi didn't speak; he waited for Lu Qiao to continue.
Lu Qiao: "Let me put it this way. I plan to provide a paid platform for Hong Kong merchants. I will sign an agreement with them, the content of which is to guarantee that they complete a certain amount of sales."
"For example, I prepare to trade clothing first. A certain merchant prepares one million worth of goods, and I promise to sell them all, but he has to provide me with a certain amount of grain. The other party earns our money, but I earn the venue fee, contact fee, etc. But I don't need money; I need grain, and I guarantee it will be held once every year."
This was just like the trade fairs organized by individual industrial and commercial households in various places in the 1990s, where several large trucks formed a convoy, all loaded with clothing, because clothing was one of the most profitable industries in the 80s and 90s.
Moreover, this stuff had no shelf life and no safety hazards, making it easy to store, easy to transport, and basically having no loss.
Most importantly, the profit was terrifyingly high.
"It can't be exchanged for foreign currency, but it can be exchanged for grain." Qin Hengzhi was silent for a moment and asked: "How much grain can be exchanged, or are there any other benefits?"
Lu Qiao glanced at Qin Hengzhi: "For example?"
"For example, donations and the like. If you want to realize this concept of yours, we must ensure that a teacher has a name and actions are righteous."
Lu Qiao had also considered this problem.
If she wanted to walk steadily and not cause trouble for herself and her family, she couldn't do things that were easily criticized.
Currently, the domestic market was not open to the outside, and many people in Hong Kong didn't even understand the huge potential of this market.
They even thought that the common people were all in rags and impoverished, let alone that they might not have a penny in their pockets.
But in fact, most formal workers now had savings.
Everything was on a rationing system, and even if you wanted to consume, there was nowhere to go.
Unless it was the kind of family with difficulties, living beyond their means, and under great pressure, such as the initial Lu family because Xiao Si was sick and needed medicine, and the herbs were expensive, plus only Old Lu had a salary in the family, so it was relatively much more difficult.
But those with dual-income or multi-income families were different.
Lu Qiao said: "It will definitely be in the name of donation, but what exactly is needed for the donated materials, this depends on what is needed above first."
Qin Hengzhi nodded; thinking this way was no problem.
If the other party could exchange for materials we urgently needed, as long as it didn't involve matters of principle, everything could be discussed.
Only when the benefits obtained far outweighed the risks undertaken would there be people to support this matter.
Lu Qiao continued: "Given the current situation, the texture and style of the clothing must be according to our design, but I want to know now, how operable is this matter?"
Qin Hengzhi also said seriously: "Seventy percent."
Lu Qiao smiled. She believed Qin Hengzhi's words.
As long as she didn't touch that line, there should be no problem.
Lu Qiao couldn't tell Qin Hengzhi that the Dragon Kingdom was in a difficult situation this year, with reduced crop yields and tight material supplies, so if the food factory wanted to maintain itself, it must import grain.
Moreover, this test of hers wasn't a whim; she was planning very seriously. If it really succeeded, the benefits would be huge.
But she had the sunflower seed basket order following her now, so this matter wasn't very urgent either.
The matter of Liu Xia and Liu Yu was resolved very smoothly, and the couple Wang Cuilan also took their three children and returned to their hometown.
At first, Wang Cuilan was dead set against going back and insisted on seeing Liu Xia.
But the joint office began, and a group of people sat together with a telephone on the desk.
The receiver was placed on the table, and Zhu Dashan's familiar voice came from it.
That was their village head and also the brigade secretary.
He was considered the highest leader in the village and had a very high deterrent power.
He first took Zhu Dashan's family household registration and read it aloud to the people here.
There was no marriage certificate, and they weren't husband and wife. Liu Xia was an adopted daughter of the Zhu family, and her name was chosen randomly; she was called Li Shani. At the time, the brigade felt that the 'sha' in 'fool' wasn't easy to write, so she was called Li Dani.
The secretary proved that she was sold to the Zhu family by a famous trafficker back then. To tell the truth, Wang Cuilan didn't want to buy her, but at the time, their family lived at the entrance of the village, and the trafficker didn't want to take Liu Xia away, so he persuaded Wang Cuilan to keep the child. She was five years old and could wash diapers, watch the children, do laundry, cook, and do housework. When she got older, she could work in the fields. These words moved Wang Cuilan, so she spent one yuan to keep her.
From the day Liu Xia arrived, she started working. For eleven whole years, the child didn't have a single day of leisure.
As for the wedding ceremony and 'wife' talk, the brigade leader said that was just Wang Cuilan's own words.
Then it was the commune president, who proved on the phone that there was no marriage certificate and it was impossible to register the marriage.
Finally, the local Women's Federation told the Women's Federation here that the adoption relationship was not established, and they would immediately move Liu Xia's household registration out and mail it over.
The brigade secretary told Zhu Dashan to quickly take his wife and children back, otherwise all the work points at the end of the year would be canceled, and the family's homestead would be distributed to others.
The Women's Federation here also kindly persuaded her not to feel that the child was easy to bully just because her parents weren't around; it was illegal in the first place, and the organization couldn't let Liu Xia have contact with her anymore.
Lu Qiao very kindly told Wang Cuilan that, in fact, Liu Xia's biological father was still alive, but he was in prison and would return in twenty years. Then you tell me, where could he go if he didn't go home?
Moreover, from now on, whatever Liu Xia and Liu Yu do will be affected; it will be good enough if they can even be temporary workers, and they might not even be able to keep their house.
Zhu Dashan and Wang Cuilan really didn't know Liu Xia's biological father was in jail.
Twenty years, he would be old when he got out.
Who would care about him then?
Besides, this bad background would affect the children's future.
Her family was red and upright for eight generations of poor peasants; it was impossible to marry into a family with someone in jail.
Thus, Zhu Dashan and Wang Cuilan left neatly with their children.
The 516 side was very humane, gave Zhu Dashan fifty yuan, signed a severance agreement, and then properly sent them back to the Great Northwest.
Although Liu Xia was uneasy and apprehensive, she accepted it very quickly.
Mainly because no one here scolded her, hit her, or ordered her around.
Liu Yu gave his job to Liu Xia and temporarily went to logistics to clean.
The little boy was very smart. He went to find Lu Qiao, preparing to change his surname to Chai; after all, the siblings' today had a lot to do with Master Liu.
Relying on him to provide for her old age in the future was impossible.
But telling others this might not work, so he chose to tell Lu Qiao.
The result proved the little boy didn't choose wrong. Lu Qiao not only helped the siblings change their names to Chai Xia and Chai Yu, but also applied for primary school for Chai Yu, so he could go to school when the semester started.
And on a Sunday, Qin Hengzhi finally brought gifts to visit.
Actually, they were already familiar.
But this way of visiting was still a bit restrictive.
Qin Hengzhi wasn't as calm and composed as he had imagined.
Meng Xia looked at Qin Hengzhi and liked him more the more she looked. She thanked Qin Hengzhi for the tickets he gave and also said she was preparing to add a bicycle to the family next month.
Old Lady Lu was the same. If there were no accidents, Qin Hengzhi would be her first granddaughter-in-law's husband.
Oh my, just thinking about it made her happy. ===== CHAPTER 182 =====
