Chapter 168: Is there something good?
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua looked at each other, their eyes filled with faint smiles. It just so happened that they were very embarrassed, and Dongzi's return was just in time.
Afraid that it wouldn't look good if they continued talking, and since the previous matter had passed, Ye Yaopeng hurriedly changed the subject and said to Ye Yaodong, "It's like this, eldest cousin said he has a way to make money and asked us to join him. We only need to put up the money, and we don't need to worry about anything. We get dividends every month."
"Right, I also thought that since we're brothers, of course I have to pull you along when there's something good. We can't let the fat water flow into outsiders' fields."
Ye Yaodong felt it was unreliable as soon as he heard it. And don't need to worry? If I put up the money, of course I have to worry. If you run away, won't my money go down the drain?
"With such a good thing, why didn't eldest cousin pull the second cousin along?"
"Of course I did. We're all brothers, and I won't favor one over the other. You guys see how much money your three families can take out, and I'll calculate it for you first."
As he spoke, he deliberately rolled up his sleeves, revealing the mechanical watch on his wrist that blinded people's eyes. It was already rolled up high, and he rolled it up again, looking proud.
"Under normal circumstances, if you invest 500 yuan, you can get about 25 yuan in dividends a month. If you invest 1000 yuan, you get 50 yuan, and so on. 50 yuan in dividends a month is equivalent to not doing any work and getting a worker's monthly salary. That's several hundred a year."
"Lying at home without doing any work and getting money, what a good thing. I also thought about our own relatives and calculated a bit more in dividends for you. You guys go back and discuss it with your wives, see how much you can raise, and try to raise as much as possible. I'm leaving tomorrow."
Who gave him the confidence that they would agree immediately? This sounded very unreliable. It was clearly bullying them for being country bumpkins who didn't understand, and having a greedy heart.
"Cousin, don't be in a hurry to calculate dividends for us. Why don't you tell us what business you're doing first?"
Ye Yaohong's eyes flickered, and he said with a smile, "Doing fabrics and such. It's just a lack of capital, so I want to find you guys to join in."
"Where is the shop? Why don't I go with you tomorrow to take a look?"
"Dongzi, you don't believe your brother? I'm going to the south, it's quite far. You have a bunch of work at home, it's not convenient to go back and forth. Better not worry about it. Leave it entirely to me to handle. I'll definitely give you dividends on time and won't let you lose money."
Uncle Ye also frowned and said from the side, "Ahong also wants to take care of his relatives. He is your own cousin, not an outsider. What else are you worried about? He also thinks that we're all one family and wants to give you a share."
【Honestly, I've been using Yeguo Reading to catch up on books recently. The source switching is great, and there are many reading tones.. yeguoyuedu is available for both Android and Apple.】
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua had just been blocked by them and couldn't speak, and they also put on a face of bestowing favors, just waiting there, waiting for them to take out the money.
This made them feel very uncomfortable, even though they were very tempted in their hearts. Not having to do anything and getting a salary at home, anyone would be tempted, but they were still very hesitant. After all, it was such a large sum of money.
Ye Yaodong deliberately said with difficulty, "Hey, to tell you the truth, I actually don't have any money. After all, we just separated the family. Eldest cousin, why don't you take me to work and let me earn some wages? Once I've saved enough money, I'll invest. Do you think that's okay?"
"Ah?" Ye Yaohong stared.
Uncle Ye also said angrily, "You've been able to forage for good things every few days for the past few months. Your mother said you dug several pearls from oysters, it's spread all over the village, how could you have no money? And the house was built with your dad's money, you don't need to spend any money."
I knew my mother had a big mouth and couldn't keep secrets. Middle-aged women love to show off.
Ye Yaohong frowned and tidied his clothes, and said with dissatisfaction, "See this outfit of mine? Envious, right? You guys can too. Invest for a year or a year and a half and you'll get your money back. Everything after that is profit. And you don't have to risk going to sea every day. I'm also kind enough to want to take you guys to make money. If you miss this village, you won't have this shop."
Ye Yaodong: "..."
He looked at him speechlessly, feeling that he was mentally retarded for talking to him for so long. He was hungry.
Looking at his flickering eyes and dishonest appearance just now, God knows what he's taking the money to do.
In his previous life, he only heard that he was doing business, but he didn't say what business he was doing, and it seemed that it only spread for a period of time, and later he didn't hear about it anymore. It's also possible that he moved into the county town and didn't associate with them, so I don't know.
However, logically speaking, this kind of person who loves to show off, if he did some business and made money, his parents would have long ago shouted it to the whole world.
"I have no money. Those few pearls are of poor quality and can't be sold for money. I'll invest when I have money and am well-off. Or you can lend me some first, and when I earn it, I'll pay you back, and by the way, invest?"
Ye Yaohong had no smile at this time, didn't pay attention to him, didn't even want to answer him, and looked directly at Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua.
"What about you guys? Invest 1000 yuan, and you get 50 yuan a month. That's 600 yuan a year. You'll get your money back in less than two years, and everything after that is a steady stream of earnings. The opportunity is rare. If you guys aren't willing, I'll look for someone else."
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua looked at each other and looked at Ye Yaodong.
Ye Yaodong shrugged. He couldn't make decisions for them, could he? What if they could really make money? What if they started complaining about him blocking them and not letting them make money?
Anyway, he had no money, he wouldn't participate, he firmly believed that there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world.
"We, we'll discuss it tonight."
"Ahong has to go to the county town early tomorrow morning and transfer to the city to catch the train. He doesn't have that much time. Such a good opportunity, you guys don't know how to grasp it and still have to consider it. There's something good delivered to your door, and you guys still..."
After Uncle Ye's nagging, Ye Yaodong was also annoyed. Can you force people to invest?
He said impatiently, "Of course we have to consider such a large sum of money. Isn't this a good thing? If it's a good thing, are you short of people to invest? Why do you have to insist on asking my eldest brother and second brother to invest here? We are all decent people, and business isn't always profitable. What business can guarantee steady monthly payments?"
"If you can guarantee that you will steadily give them so much money every month, then their behavior isn't called investment, it's called usury, and what you give is interest. Even if it's an investment, if you give the money and don't care about anything, where will they get the money if you say you lost money later?"
Uncle Ye didn't dare to make a sound after he said that.
The two brothers also realized it. Right, there's no such thing as steady money in business. And if you give the money and don't have to care about anything, and get fixed dividends every month, isn't that about the same as usury?
Ye Yaopeng hurriedly said, "We don't have any money either. The children are going to school, and the family's food and drink expenses are high. Eldest cousin, why don't you ask someone else?"
Ye Yaohong glared at them with an ugly face. "You guys don't know how to cherish it when something good comes to you. You deserve to live at sea and take risks for the rest of your lives."
"Everyone has their own aspirations."
Ye Yaohong gave him a fierce look, snorted coldly, and went out first.
"Don't say we don't take care of our relatives in the future."
Uncle Ye also left a sentence angrily and went out.
Ye Yaodong curled his lips. He didn't care to earn this kind of money. Who knows what he's taking the money to do?
"You guys won't blame me for blocking your path to wealth, will you?"
Ye Yaopeng shook his head hurriedly when he heard his words. "No, we just didn't know how to refuse. Uncle and the others said it one after another."
"Right, they kept saying that eldest cousin added a radio and a tape recorder to the family in the past few months, and even brought back a television today at noon. The whole village was shocked. I heard it cost more than four hundred yuan."
"So many appliances? Did he really make a fortune?"
I heard he went out in August, saying he was going out to find work. It's only been three months, right?
Nowadays, unless these small appliances are smuggled, supply and marketing cooperatives still need industrial tickets.
What can make a country man earn so much in a short time without much capital?
Ye Yaodong couldn't help but doubt.
Ye Yaohua said enviously, "Right, the whole village went to eldest cousin's house in the afternoon. It was so lively. I heard that big lump isn't cheap. Eldest cousin really made a fortune."
"Can that television be watched? Did you watch it?" Ye Yaopeng was also very curious. The first television in the whole village, very rare.
Their family didn't even have a radio.
"No, they said it needed to be installed. There were people in the room, so I came back after staying for a while."
Ye Yaodong touched his chin. "Then can we go to their house to watch television tonight? Will they give us a look?"
"Uh..."
"Forget it, let's go home for dinner."
It's just a black-and-white television, nothing to watch. It's been a few months since he was reborn, and he's long been used to sleeping when it gets dark, not sticking to mobile phones or short videos. This really couldn't attract him.
He was just curious and wanted to see how lively it was.
As soon as he returned home, he told Lin Xiuqing about what happened just now.
Lin Xiuqing's first reaction was the same as his.
"How could there be such a good thing? We have no money."
His eyes were filled with smiles. "Mm, I also said I had no money. Be low-key in the future. I guess they heard that we've made a lot of money in the past few months, so they're thinking about it."
There have never been any secrets in the village. How much he sold every day, how much he settled with Acai every few days, if the quantity is large, it will spread more or less.
So this life is different from the previous life. In the previous life, Ye Yaohong didn't come to the door to ask him to invest?
In his previous life, he was a poor ghost, and people couldn't avoid him in time.
I don't know if Ye Yaohong also went to be a smuggler.
I heard that ordinary smugglers nowadays can earn at least one or two months' wages of a worker every day, and two or three months for more.
Wealth moves people's hearts. If he also went to do it, it's not hard to understand why he suddenly made a fortune.
"What kind of thing is this? Saving some money at home and being reluctant to spend it, and still being thought about."
"It's okay, we'll just say we have no money, let him change to the next family to raise money."
"Mm."
Ye Yaodong took the opportunity to discuss with her the matter of asking someone to make longlines. After all, she manages the money, and the couple should discuss things.
"I don't understand things at sea. If you think it's good, then do it. I believe you."
She had seen his performance for so long, and she was convinced that he had much more sense now. If there was a better job, of course she would support him.
