I, Yan Jiefang, will live to 2025 in this courtyard house.

Yan Jiefang invited them in.

The second and third brothers brought stools for the two of them to sit down.

The eldest brother, Yan Xueqian, brought tea to the two of them.

Liu Yuyan took the tea, looked at the three children, and said enviously to Yan Jiefang and his wife:

"Sister, brother-in-law, you three children have really grown up. You all know how to help the adults with chores now."

Unlike my two kids, who are bad at studying and lazy when it comes to chores, all they do is hide in their rooms watching TV all day. It's so annoying!

Liu Ruyan asked with some curiosity:

"Isn't He Xiao learning to cook from his dad? I think he's doing quite well, so why do you look so disgusted?"

Liu Yuyan sighed:

"The kid said he wanted to buy a motorcycle, and I agreed. I told him I'd use some connections to get him a Happiness 250 for a little over 3000 yuan."

As a result, the child immediately put on a long face, looking disgusted, and insisted on buying an imported motorcycle; a cheap one wouldn't do.

At the very least, it has to be a Honda GL145. I've inquired about that car, and it costs around 6000 yuan, not to mention you need a lot of connections and you still might not be able to buy it. Sigh~

Sha Zhu's voice was muffled:

"This kid deserves a beating! He's never been disciplined before; he's been spoiled rotten!"

When Liu Ruyan heard the two of them talking like that, she didn't know what to say.

These were their family matters, and Yan Jiefang declined to comment, instead asking the two men why they had come:

"Big sister, what brings you here today?"

Hearing her brother-in-law ask this, Liu Yuyan finally remembered what she wanted to ask today:

"Didn't Zhu Zi used to work at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, where there was a factory manager named Li? He came to the shop for dinner yesterday, and afterwards he told us about a chance to make a fortune."

He said he goes to Tianjin to buy electrical appliances and then sells them in the mainland. He claims he can earn at least double his initial investment! But it requires a significant investment.

We don't know anything about this, we don't know what's going on inside, so we wanted to ask you, brother-in-law.

"You're the most knowledgeable and have the broadest perspective in our family; you might be able to understand some things."

After saying that, the couple looked at Yan Jiefang with some anticipation, it seemed that this money-making opportunity had tempted them.

These two can now earn 70,000 to 80,000 yuan a year, which is many times better than the average person.

But the desires in people's hearts are like a bottomless pit, which can never be filled.

In recent years, Yan Jiefang has been paying attention to all opportunities to make money, and he has also heard of many people who made a lot of money through smuggling in his previous life.

One of the women, surnamed Wu, even appeared on television.

It seems like she took off this year?

Therefore, although he wouldn't get involved in smuggling, he now knows quite a bit about it.

I have a pretty good idea of ​​the profit margin.

Li Huaide said that smuggling electrical appliances yields more than double the profit, and that's true.

Moreover, under normal circumstances, the profit margin of smuggled electrical appliances is 2 to 5 times, and for some in-demand categories, it can even reach more than 10 times!

He nodded:

"Boss Li is right, doing it this way can indeed yield more than double the profit."

Hearing this, the Sha Zhu couple were overjoyed, feeling that the door to wealth had been opened for them.

But Yan Jiefang's next words made their hearts sink.

"But doing this is called smuggling, which is illegal. If someone reports it and the police find out, a few years in prison would be considered a light punishment."

Hearing this, Liu Ruyan immediately took her sister's hand:

"Sis, please don't do anything foolish!"

Liu Yuyan was quite clever; upon hearing that this was illegal, she immediately had the idea to back out and quickly nodded.

"We're not getting involved in this anymore. We can make a good living running a restaurant."

Sha Zhu always listened to his wife; he did whatever she said. Hearing Liu Yuyan's words, he nodded in agreement.

"I never expected Factory Director Li to be so unreliable, trying to drag me into this mess. I won't entertain him next time!"

Yan Jiefang thought of something: It's really too difficult for private individuals to buy a computer in China now. Could he get one or two through Li Huaide?

If I get a super critical hit, could I get a supercomputer?

This is highly likely!

He immediately asked Liu Yuyan:

"Have you arranged a time for your next meeting with Li Huaide?"

Liu Yuyan was stunned for a moment.

"Oh? Oh, there's an appointment. He'll come to the restaurant to meet us tomorrow morning, and I'll refuse him then."

Yan Jiefang nodded and said:

"Okay, I'll go see him tomorrow morning. He's well-connected, so I can buy some special electrical appliances from him tomorrow."

Although they didn't know what appliances Yan Jiefang wanted to buy through Li Huaide, the Sha Zhu couple didn't ask.

It was getting late, so they stood up, thanked Yan Jiefang, and then turned to leave.

On their way home, the two of them felt a little relieved. Luckily, they had asked about it earlier that day, or they would have fallen into a trap.

In fact, Yan Jiefang had specifically looked into it and found that there is indeed an electronics street in Zhongguancun, where microcomputers are occasionally sold.

However, under normal circumstances, individuals are not allowed to purchase them.

Individuals need to be affiliated with an organization that has computer procurement authority to obtain the corresponding procurement quota certificate.

There's nothing that can be done about people like Yan Jiefang.

The next day, Yan Jiefang met Li Huaide, the famous "money-for-service" man from the courtyard, at the restaurant.

This guy is already quite old, but I didn't expect him to be so hardworking. He's quite a character.

Following behind him was You Fengxia.

There's no need to mention where her former boss went.

Li Huaide was also very enthusiastic when he met Yan Jiefang.

After all, he had just won four gold medals at the Olympics and was at the height of his popularity.

Although he was somewhat disappointed that the Saju couple hadn't participated in smuggling electronics, he didn't say anything.

Everyone has their own ambitions and different ideas, so it's normal for Sha Zhu to want to earn money steadily.

Yan Jiefang handed Li Huaide a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes:

"Boss Li, I have a question for you. Do you have any way of getting one or two computers?"

Li Huaide took the cigarette and paused slightly upon hearing Yan Jiefang's words:

"Microcomputer?"

Yan Jiefang nodded slightly:

"right."

Li Huaide shook his head slightly:

"I only have access to color TVs and television sets, but not to computers."

Yan Jiefang felt a little regretful, but still expressed his understanding.

He then said goodbye to the group and returned home.

A few days later, an official from the General Administration of Sport came to see him and told him about something.

A patriotic businessman surnamed Huo invited the athletes of this year's Olympics to visit Hong Kong in early October.

Yan Jiefang was also on the invitation list, and they asked him if he planned to go.

Hong Kong?

Go! We absolutely have to go!

I'll be relying on this opportunity to buy a computer!
