Siheyuan: After becoming a traitor, first let the Huai Ru River overflow its banks.

Li Jianjun quickly took out the acquired casing from his bag, then began to remove the old casing and replace it with this nearly new one.

Suddenly, a nearly new radio appeared in front of Yan Bugui.

This radio not only looks great, but also produces exceptionally clear sound.

"Uncle, take another look. This is a Panda 506 radio, which cost 127 yuan in 58. This radio would cost at least 90 yuan now."

Yan Bugui nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"That's right, you're absolutely right. This radio is really unaffordable."

Yan Bugui had long wanted to buy a radio, but he could never save enough money. With his monthly salary of just over 30 yuan, it was already difficult to support his whole family, let alone save any money.

"Oh, Jianjun, I wish I had a radio like this."

Yan Bugui held the radio in his hands, reluctant to put it down.

He never imagined that Li Jianjun's cost price for such a radio was only 11 yuan.

But Li Jianjun wanted to resell it for him, but he wouldn't sell it for less than 60 yuan.

After all, Panda brand radios were a big brand back then.

"Uncle, give me the radio. It's all cleaned up; could you find me a buyer?"

"I'll set a price of 60 yuan, no radio ticket required. That's 30 yuan cheaper than the market price."

Yan Bugui certainly understood this principle.

"Jianjun, sell it to me, but make it cheaper, how about 40 yuan?"

Yan Bugui's eyes darted around as he plotted something in his mind.

"Uncle, you must be joking. This radio is brand new, as you can see. There's just some oxidation and rust inside. I'll polish it up in a bit, and it'll be practically brand new."

"I definitely won't sell it for 40 yuan. Uncle, you're really good at bargaining."

"I don't need radio tickets, this price is already very favorable."

A single radio ticket could stump countless people.

Dozens of people were vying for radio tickets; this is no exaggeration. The leaders were quite troubled when allocating the tickets, but eventually came up with a method of drawing lots, which was both fair and avoided offending anyone.

Yan Bugui teaches at Hongqi Road Primary School. There are sixteen teachers in the school, and his unit only gets one radio ticket a year.

Yan Bugui wasn't lucky enough to get a radio ticket.

"Jianjun, look at you, can we talk about it again? How about I add two yuan to the price? Just sell it then."

Yan Bugui fully utilized his meticulous searching skills, which directly annoyed Li Jianjun.

"Uncle, don't add one or two yuan more. I won't sell it for 60 yuan, not a penny less."

"If you don't have money, then find me a buyer."

Li Jianjun didn't have time to waste words with him, and instead started working on another radio.

The other radio had a different problem than the first one. Li Jianjun checked it carefully and found that it couldn't receive a frequency signal.

It was obvious that the tuner was faulty. Li Jianjun took the radio apart and fiddled with it for a while.

Surprisingly, the radio started playing sound.

This made Yan Bugui extremely excited.

"Jianjun, when did you learn this skill?"

"But it's strange, the radio started making sound as soon as you put it in your hands and adjusted it."

Li Jianjun replaced the radio with another nearly new shell, instantly transforming the radio from a piece of junk into a nearly new one.

However, this radio is a Plum Blossom brand, and Li Jianjun still priced it at 60 yuan.

"Uncle, if you can't afford it, just leave the radio there."

"Anyway, I'm not worried about selling them."

Just then, a neighbor came over for a visit, and like Yan Bugui, he also took a liking to the radio at first glance.

He took it and tried it out; it was practically indistinguishable from a brand new one.

After inquiring about the price, the 40-year-old man bought it directly upon hearing that no radio ticket was required.

"Jianjun, I'll take this radio. I'll go get the money for you right now."

Yan Bugui was extremely envious as he watched the man hurriedly ride his bicycle to withdraw money.

A short while later, the man arrived at Li Jianjun's house with the money.

"Jianjun, here's 60 yuan. Count it."

Li Jianjun took the money, counted it roughly, and handed the radio directly to the middle-aged man.

"Okay. Cash on delivery."

"If you encounter any problems with this radio later on, feel free to come to me. Repairs are free."

The middle-aged man was overjoyed; even if he bought a new radio and it broke down, it would be very difficult to find a repair shop.

Many people can only sell their broken radios to scrap yards at low prices.

With Li Jianjun's words, they felt much more at ease.

In just a short while, Li Jianjun made a fortune of 50 yuan, which was equivalent to half a month's salary.

Chapter 237 Yu Li visits

This scene stunned Yan Bugui. He worked hard every day, bending over to go to work, and only earned 30 yuan a month.

Li Jianjun tinkered with the old radio and sold it for 60 yuan. Although he didn't know the cost price, he conservatively estimated that he would make a profit of 30 or 40 yuan.

In the time it takes for someone to fart, he's earned a month's salary. Where can he go to seek justice?

Yan Bugui was itching to try it.

"Jianjun, how about letting my son Jiecheng learn how to repair radios with you?"

Li Jianjun was truly impressed. Yan Bugui was such a cunning schemer; he had once again set his sights on him.

However, Li Jianjun was no pushover either; he wouldn't teach someone such a skill for no reason.

As the saying goes, "Teach your apprentice well, and you'll starve."

However, he thought about it again and came up with another idea.

“It’s fine to have your family learn this craft from me, but let Yu Li come and learn from me instead. Jie Cheng’s mind is a bit too rigid.”

Whether it's Yu Li or Yan Jiecheng, they're all family members; we shouldn't let the good stuff go to outsiders.

Yan Bugui quickly grasped this idea.

"Okay. I'll go home right away and have Yu Li come over and learn from you."

Yan Bugui ran away as fast as he could.

This wasn't Li Jianjun trying to seduce Yu Li; it was just that he felt it was a bit unfair to teach a grown man like that.

But Li Jianjun didn't expect that Yu Li would arrive at his house one after the other.

Yu Li is Yu Haitang's older sister. She has been married to Yan Jiecheng for just over a year and they do not have children yet.

After Yan Bugui returned home, he rushed to Yan Jiecheng's house, where Yu Li was also there.

Yan Bugui explained the whole story to Yu Li, and Yu Li was naturally willing to learn it.

After marrying into the Yan family, Yan Jiecheng only did odd jobs. The whole family relied on her father-in-law's meager salary and lived a very tight life.

"Dad, have you talked to Jianjun about it?"

"It's all arranged. Li Jianjun is at home now. You should go over there quickly."

Yan Jiecheng was somewhat puzzled.

"Why don't you let me learn from Li Jianjun? I'm a man, so I can learn faster."

Yan Bugui rolled his eyes at him.

“Li Jianjun said he thinks you learn things too slowly.”

"Lily, you should pack your things and go over there quickly. I'm worried someone might take advantage of the situation."

Yu Li changed her clothes again before heading to Li Jianjun's house.

Behind him, Yan Jiecheng was filled with envy, but he didn't realize that his actions were tantamount to sending his wife to Li Jianjun's bed.

Li Jianjun was sitting in his chair at home, leisurely listening to a radio program, when he heard footsteps outside.

Is Jianjun at home?

Li Jianjun recognized the voice as Yu Li's and quickly responded.

"Here, come in."

Yu Li walked into the house and saw Li Jianjun lying on his back in a rocking chair, leisurely smoking a cigarette.

There was a radio next to her, playing a broadcast program.

And the angle from which he was lying was perfect for a pillar to reach him...

Yu Li, being a married woman, naturally wouldn't make a fuss like a young girl.

But the scale still startled Yu Li.

This young man is quite young, but the scale of this operation is...

"So it's Sister-in-law Jie Cheng, come in."

Li Jianjun greeted Yu Li, then sat up.

"Brother Jianjun, I heard from my dad that you know how to repair radios. Could you teach me?"

Yu Li got straight to the point, staring enviously at the radio next to Li Jianjun.

The casing looks 90% new, and the sound is crystal clear.

Nowadays, not many families in the entire courtyard own a radio; only one old man has one.
