Chapter 478 Gao Yunshan Has Come Knocking
When Lü Hongliang heard Su Niannian say that, his eyes lit up, and then he grinned.
"I've got the people and the tricycle ready! We can start anytime!"
Lu Hongliang called two of his brothers over to help him, and just like with his previous business of braised pig offal in Long County, he paid them wages.
Actually, what Lü Hongliang thought was similar. Some of his brothers didn't want to leave their hometowns and wanted to stay there with their wives and children.
The two young men who came were both unmarried in their hometowns, and they still had brothers and parents at home. It was not a big deal for them to come out.
Su Niannian nodded upon hearing this. She planned to check on Jiang Fangyuan's condition later. If Jiang Fangyuan's condition improved significantly, the plan to collect scrap here could officially begin.
As for Jiang Fangyuan's hands... as long as he doesn't have to do any heavy lifting or physical labor, it won't affect him at all.
Jiang Fangyuan's job was simply to open her eyes and see if those things were valuable or not.
If Jiang Fangyuan's arm heals in three months and he is able to run this business on his own, then Lü Hongliang could offer him a different opportunity.
In this era, making money is still easy for Su Niannian.
However, it wasn't entirely legal and compliant; everything had to wait until 1978.
1978 was the year Su Niannian truly began to fully display her talents.
Thinking about it, Su Niannian couldn't help but smile.
The truck Lao Qian brought this time was bigger than the one in Long County, but it still couldn't hold all the stuff.
There are also certain restrictions on the weight that trucks can carry.
"We still need two trips," Lao Qian said to Su Niannian.
Su Niannian took a look and confirmed it was true.
"I'll go back with you on the first trip, and then you'll help me lock the side door after you've finished moving everything," Su Niannian said, handing the lock to Lao Qian.
Of course, you still don't need to give them the key, just the lock.
Old Qian nodded, very grateful that Su Niannian trusted him so much.
After the first truckload of goods was loaded, Lü Hongliang waited there while Lao Qian took Su Niannian back.
When they arrived at Mao'er Hutong, Lao Qian wanted to take Su Niannian home.
Su Niannian politely declined.
Old Qian knew that Su Niannian would definitely have something to do later, so since she wouldn't let him see her off, he said goodbye and they parted ways.
After leaving Mao'er Hutong, Su Niannian took a bus back to Baicaotang.
After unloading everything from the truck, Lao Qian left two of his underlings to watch over it before driving back to Su Niannian's warehouse.
On the other side, Lü Hongliang was waiting at the warehouse, smoking.
Then I saw a man looking through the bars at the side door next to the warehouse.
Lu Hongliang didn't know what the man was up to, so he threw his cigarette butt on the ground, shooed it away with his foot, and walked away.
"What's wrong?" Lu Hongliang asked.
Although this area is part of the urban area of Beijing, it is mainly a farming and animal husbandry area.
Therefore, there were hardly any people coming and going.
Is there something you need from this person?
When Lü Hongliang came over, the person outside the door looked him up and down.
"Brother, I'm looking for a girl, her surname is Su," the man said.
Lu Hongliang looked at the person who had come in. If she was looking for Miss Su, then it must be Su Niannian, right?
"Is there something wrong?" Lü Hongliang asked.
"Who is this Miss Su?" the man asked.
Lu Hongliang was stunned. He was in the yard of Su Niannian's warehouse, and this person came looking for Su Niannian.
Ask yourself who you are? Shouldn't you introduce yourself?
Thinking about it, Lü Hongliang felt that this guy was up to no good.
But since they came looking for Su Niannian, he couldn't afford to offend them.
"Just say what you have to say!" Lü Hongliang said, looking at the person who had come.
After thinking for a moment, the man told Lü Hongliang why he had come.
Lu Hongliang wanted to say something more, but then he thought that this was ultimately Old Qian's business.
I'm not as good at talking as Lao Qian, so I'd better wait for Lao Qian to come back before talking to this person.
Fortunately, Lao Qian's car returned shortly afterward.
The vehicle drove into the yard, and his underlings jumped out and immediately started unloading the goods.
Upon seeing this, the man seemed to understand quite a bit; these bags were clearly grain.
This is... Su Niannian found someone else to do business with.
As for my own side...
Old Qian also noticed the stranger, pulled Lü Hongliang over, and asked who this person was.
"The guy who did the deal with Xiao Su before, what's his name, Gao Yunshan?" Lu Hongliang said to Lao Qian in a low voice.
"Gao Yunshan?" I had indeed heard this name from Su Niannian before.
However, Su Niannian also said that the transaction did not go very smoothly.
Now that Su Niannian has made a deal with him, what business is it of Gao Yunshan's?
Thinking it over, Lao Qian headed towards Gao Yunshan, with Lü Hongliang following behind.
"Little Su said that you probably won't have many opportunities to trade grain with me anymore." Old Qian knew that this Gao Yunshan sold grain in the largest black market near Baicaotang.
He was considered the biggest grain merchant in the black market. They say that business rivals are enemies, so Lao Qian didn't have a good impression of this person.
"There's always a first-come, first-served order, right? I won't talk to you about that. Can I see Miss Su?" The matter with Gao Yunshan has been settled.
Those underlings who tried to plunder him have all been sent to the police station.
That means his private business dealings have been brought into the open.
He spent a lot of money to cover up his secret grain sales.
In the past ten days or so, although all the grain I had was sold, after deducting the money I spent, I barely made any money, and even lost some.
Because of the trouble he had, several people who had previously lent him money took back the money they had lent to Gao Yunshan.
Gao Yunshan urgently needs some high-quality rice to get his business running again.
Otherwise, I'm afraid they really will never recover.
Selling ordinary grain, earning only a few cents per pound, it's unlikely they'll ever be able to turn their fortunes around.
If we want to turn our lives around and make more money, we still need to sell this kind of expensive grain, which has a large profit margin!
Therefore, Gao Yunshan would come to this place every day to try his luck, because he didn't know where else he could find Su Niannian.
Hearing Gao Yunshan's words, and hearing him talk about first come, first served, Old Qian couldn't help but laugh.
Gao Yunshan was stunned for a moment when he saw Lao Qian burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Gao Yunshan asked, frowning.
"Brother, if you knew what 'first come, first served' meant, you shouldn't be standing here anymore." Old Qian said, reaching out to pat Gao Yunshan on the shoulder.
But Gao Yunshan avoided it.
Old Qian glanced awkwardly at Lü Hongliang, who shrugged.
"Alright, you can go now. Don't even think about this business with Little Su anymore," Lu Hongliang said.
