Jiang Xiao had a very fulfilling life during the month from September to November before the holiday.
He seized any time he could study, and roughly passed the knowledge points of the first and second grades of the main subject of language and mathematics. There was no problem with the basic questions in the final comprehensive paper of the second semester, and this month's results also met Jiang Xiao's study plan.
At this time, Houlin No. 3 Middle School is not allowed to make up lessons, and the November holiday is a full seven days. Jiang Xiao has already planned how to spend his November holiday a week before the holiday.
He wants to make some money.
Jiang Xiao was stewing chicken soup in the kitchen that night, when she heard her mother's suppressed coughing in the living room.
Xia Wanwan's health was poor since she was a child, Jiang Xiao knew it. Grandpa's family is in the countryside of the next county town, and the family is poor. If there are good things, she will follow her older brothers and younger brothers first. Later, she was able to study accounting in a junior college because of her part-time work and hard work. The poor health is the fault of her congenital insufficiency. Later, I met Jiang Xiao's father, and he finally got better, but now he's not doing well. Her natal home was far away, and she felt that no matter how Xia Wanwan was doing, she didn't come to see the water splashed by her married daughter. Jiang Xiao didn't know her cousin very well, so she couldn't help her at all.
Part of her death at that time was due to overwork and partly due to heart disease, because of her dead lover and because of Jiang Xiao who was disobedient later. Recently, Jiang Xiao has become obedient and obedient, and she has been relieved a lot. Seeing that her expression has improved, most of her heart problems have been cured. At this time, there is still time to take care of her. She should not be seriously ill like in her previous life, but the root cause of the disease is still the same. If it exists, it needs to be taken care of, and frequent visits to the hospital are required.
After Jiang Xiao came back, she forced her to go to the hospital for a few times. She saw both Chinese and Western medicine, and came back with a lot of medicines, but the cost increased, and Xia Wanwan was reluctant to go. She kept saying that she was fine and called him Read well and don't worry about these.
Although the family still has income, the accounting work of the small company in the county is not busy, and the income is not much. In the past, when my father made a lot of money, the family did not save money. After all, the savings were limited, and the pension was cheated by the cousin Jiang's After walking for half the time, although the family still has savings, Xia Wanwan will not bear to see her illness continue like this. Jiang Xiao wants to go to university in the future, so he needs to prepare money for him, and as the old saying goes, half a child eats up my father, and at his age, there are too many places waiting to spend money.
It's not that she doesn't want to see a doctor or want to improve her health, but Jiang Xiao also knows in her heart that Xia Wanwan has a gentle personality, but she is stubborn when it comes to this.
After all, Jiang Xiao is a reborn person, and although the factory closed down before rebirth, his previous savings and income from investment and land sales are enough for him to live a prosperous life, and he can be regarded as a serious and successful person. Now he is younger and has limited resources. My main job is still studying, but if I have the opportunity, I can earn a little money.
After Ye Yingying reached a few deals with the girls in the next class, Jiang Xiao got on the line and asked those girls a few words.
Those girls knew Jiang Xiao. After all, Jiang Xiao was good-looking. When he smiled, his small canine teeth showed. He was a character that many girls in the school would secretly talk about behind their backs. Even the fact that his grades had plummeted was considered cool.
Who knew that this cool little Huya boy showed his iconic smile, but what he asked about was the bracelet on the school uniform, which was a little inexplicable.
"Since you want it, why don't you just buy the real thing? There must be bracelets that imitate the ones in TV dramas, right?"
The girls looked at each other in blank dismay, no matter when, those who follow the drama really want the same style in the drama, but...
"How can there be any for sale?" They complained, "I have searched all the small shops outside the door, and they all said that they have no stock."
"A friend of mine bought it. Her relatives brought it back from a big city, but it was very expensive."
Most of the students in the school are from ordinary families. They have some pocket money, but not too much. In comparison, it only costs one or two yuan to find Ye Yingying, which can be said to be very cost-effective.
Jiang Xiao went to some small shops at the door and some boutiques in the county before asking questions. There is no concept of online shopping these days, and the efficiency of the circulation of some small commodities is indeed very low. All popular items in small counties in the central part are lagging behind. Yes, not only girls' small boutiques, but also boys' toys, such as racing cars that have long been popular in developed cities, it is not uncommon to wait here in Houlin County for several months or even a year or two at night.
This is the beginning of the millennium. Even though the whole country will usher in rapid development in a short period of time, the channels for the circulation of goods and information are too narrow. The cities that have developed along the coast and the small counties in the middle are two different worlds.
There is a very important reason for the slow update of goods in the small shops in the county town. Their upstream channels for getting goods are basically fixed. Jiang Xiao’s father is a cart driver, and Jiang Xiao has a few uncles he knows. knew.
The purchase of small retail commodities will not travel long distances at this time. It is originally a small profit but quick turnover. If you travel far away, you will not be able to earn back the transportation fee. Their upstream market is basically a few large wholesale markets in the next county. They cannot go out of this city. When buying goods, they actually choose among the limited goods of dealers in the big market. It’s not that the small bosses don’t know what goods sell well, but some good goods have to be grabbed, and the lag is also very strong, and the upstream can’t get them. , They want to buy but can't buy it.
After Jiang Xiao learned about this, he went to ask the girls. He asked himself if he could bring some back, would they want them
"Just don't be too expensive," the girls in the next class thought for a while, and one of them whispered, "I want the hero's photo card, a plastic photo card."
Her words seemed to be a reminder, and another girl followed, her eyes a little bright: "I want it too, I want the male second, if you can really bring it back, many girls want it, really Yes, my sister really wants to buy one too, but the ones in front of the school are old and we want new ones.”
There is a target group and there is a gap in demand. Jiang Xiao also did a simple market research, and his thoughts became clear.
Before the November holiday, he found a colleague of his father.
Jiang Xiao's father is a very cheerful person. He had many friends in the past, many of whom were truck drivers of the same company. After his father's accident, he helped a lot, but the truck drivers are all busy, and each has a family, so it is not easy to communicate in real time. Take care, I am very grateful to help Jiang Xiao in difficult times.
Now when Jiang Xiao had the cheek to knock on the door, although the other party was surprised, he listened carefully to what he had said.
Jiang Xiao had always called him Uncle Ye before, and he was one of his father's best friends. He often ran back and forth on the transportation line in Huainan Province. Liujiang City, where Jiang Xiao stayed for a long time, is one of the most developed cities in Huainan Province. As a coastal province, a large number of production factories took root there. Until the time when Jiang Xiao closed his eyes in his last life, it was still one of the most developed industrial provinces in the country.
If you want to give Jiang Xiao's behavior an appropriate name, it should be a purchasing agent, a domestic purchasing agent under special circumstances.
But Jiang Xiao didn't have much money, he didn't save much of the New Year's money he received before, plus some pocket money he had saved up recently, and the money he borrowed from Ye Yingying, it was barely five hundred yuan, so he really had to make a trip by himself. Neither is enough.
Jiang Xiao's target group can't afford expensive things, so he has to find a way to reduce his own costs. He knew that Uncle Ye would make two trips to Huainan Province during the National Day, and he happened to go to the industrial park there to pick up goods, so he wanted to hitch a ride.
It is not a big deal for the driver and the co-pilot of the big truck to bring another passenger. It is also a trivial matter to help bring a package of goods. Just help.
It's just... Jiang Xiao is too young, this is not going out to play, he can take a car along the way, but the truck driver has to load and unload the goods, he is very busy, he has no time to take care of the children at that time.
"I'm not young anymore, Uncle Ye, I'm fifteen years old," Jiang Xiao looked at him, "My father is gone, I have to take care of my mother, you trust me, just help me this time."
He might be more familiar with the Huainan industrial area, especially Liujiang City, which is now a first-class industrial city in China, than Uncle Ye.
