"Yuemin, I bought my radio for 180 yuan. I also sold an old coat at home for 200 yuan.”
Zheng Tong said to Zhong Yuemin as he took out the money from the sale.
"Yuemin, my radio is broken. I sold it for only 50 dollars, but I bought my general oil. The other party offered 200 dollars, so I bought a total of 250 dollars.”
Yuan Jun passed the money he bought to Zhong Yuemin.
"Not bad. The two of you together have 450 yuan. With my 350 yuan, we have 800 yuan.”
Zhong Yuemin said with satisfaction when he heard the money Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong had sold.
"Yuemin, is this much money enough for us to buy fishing nets?”
Yuan Jun asked Zhong Yuemin.
"It's enough, but I want to buy a hundred-meter-long fishing net, so this money isn't enough. I went to ask today, and a hundred-meter-long fishing net costs 1,000 yuan. The fishing net is very strong, but it needs to be reserved. I plan to see if I can save up money to buy a two-hundred-meter-long fishing net.”
Zhong Yuemin answered Yuan Jun.
"The fishing net is so long. If we really catch the fish, how are we going to pull them up? "This net will weigh at least a few thousand pounds. There are only a dozen of us. On average, each of us weighs a few hundred pounds. Coupled with the resistance in the water, this net will weigh at least tens of thousands of pounds. We need a car to pull the net up, but the key is that we don't have a car.”
Zheng Tong had heard Zhong Yuemin say that he wanted to buy a fishing net that was 150 to 200 meters long, so he gave Zhong Yuemin a lesson.
"You're a bookworm. If we can't borrow a car, we can borrow a cow! Can't we just borrow a few cows from our hometown to help us pull the fishing net? At that time, if we give some money to our fellow countrymen, would we be afraid that no one will work for us?”
Zhong Yuemin rolled his eyes at Zheng Tong.
"In my opinion, Yuemin is still the smartest. He's much better than a bookworm like Zheng Tong.”
Yuan Jun said disdainfully to Zheng Tong after hearing Zhong Yuemin's suggestion.
"You two stop talking. Go and inform the others to come to my place for a meeting.”
Seeing that Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong were about to bicker, Zhong Yuemin hurriedly interrupted them and asked them to inform the others to come to his house for a meeting.
"Alright, I'll inform everyone to come to the meeting now.”
Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong immediately responded to Zhong Yuemin.
After Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong left, Zhong Yuemin sat on his sofa with his legs crossed. He kept thinking about what he was going to do after he earned his first sum of money.
Soon, he realized that the first thing he would do after earning money was to buy antiques.
At this time, not many people knew what antiques were. In their eyes, they were all useless things, especially bronze ware. Many precious and rare bronze ware were smelted into copper, including the precious and rare Xuande furnace, as well as many precious bronze ware of the Western Zhou Dynasty and various dynasties.
Of course, there were also Zhang Daqian's paintings. In 1968, Zhang Daqian was still alive. Zhong Yuemin wanted to buy all of Zhang Daqian's paintings. When his collection became popular, how much would these paintings be worth?
Zhang Daqian's paintings were worth more than 100 million. Even his ordinary paintings were worth tens of millions. If he bought hundreds or thousands of paintings at this time, how much would they be worth in the 21st century?
Apart from Zhang Daqian, there were also paintings by Xu Beihong, Qi Baishi, and the others. The prices were very low during this period. Zhong Yuemin had already thought of buying antiques after he earned money.
Ten minutes later, Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong arrived at Zhong Yuemin's house with more than ten stubborn masters.
"Yuemin, everyone is here. Tell everyone!”
Zheng Tong said to Zhong Yuemin.
"Everyone, I called you here today to make money from fishing. Zheng Tong, Yuan Jun, and I sold the radio and some other things in our house today for a total of 800 yuan. However, this money is not enough to buy a fishing net. I want to buy a fishing net that is 150 to 200 meters long. If I buy a 150-meter-long fishing net, it will cost 1,500 yuan. If I buy a 200-meter-long fishing net, it will cost 2,000 yuan. I still need 700 to 1,200 yuan. So I called everyone here today to ask all of you to go home and buy some things to raise money as soon as possible, such as the radio at home or selling the school to raise money. After we earn money, we can sell new ones. We can get back our capital in three days at most.”
Zhong Yuemin took out 800 yuan and said to everyone.
"Yuemin is fine. Just wait for us.”
When everyone heard Zhong Yuemin's words, they agreed without thinking.
These stubborn masters were masters who wouldn't even feel sorry for their children. Even if their own adults found out, they would at most be beaten up. Would they be afraid of being beaten? If he was beaten up, he would stay at another friend's house for a few days and still go home.
Of course, they only made up their minds after seeing Zhong Yuemin take out 800 yuan. Even Zhong Yuemin, Yuan Jun, and Zheng Tong had sold their own things to raise money. How could they not sell their own things to raise money?
