Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

Zhao Qin consulted and found that the doctor did not recommend that he be transferred to another hospital now. It would be best to observe him for two or three days and tie the splint first. If he was fine, he could go home and rest, and then remove the splint when the time came.

A bed was arranged, and Zhao Qin could only stay to accompany him.

"What would you like to eat tonight?"

"I won't eat noodles, wontons or anything like that. I'll see if there's any fast food. I'll order some fast food and buy a three-liang bottle of wine."

Zhao Qin nodded, went downstairs to fry two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, packed three boxes of lunch, and bought a bottle of Yanghe from the nearby canteen before going upstairs.

There were three beds in the ward, one of which was empty. The one in the middle was an old man. When he saw Zhao Anguozi sipping a drink, his throat was rolling up and down. He was obviously greedy.

"Uncle, why don't you have a cup too?" Zhao Anguo invited with a smile.

"Brother, please drink. My father can't drink." Before the old man could agree, his son flatly refused.

The old man looked at his food and became angry. He slapped his chopsticks on the bed frame and said, "I'm full."

Zhao Qin ate two boxes of lunch by himself. After he finished, Zhao Anguo also had enough to eat and drink. He put away the garbage and asked, "The tea has been poured for you. Do you want to go to the toilet?"

"No, if you're bored, just go out and walk around. You don't have to watch here all the time."

"Okay, then you rest and I'll go down and walk around."

He went downstairs to smoke a cigarette and told his elder brother about the situation. The elder brother told him not to rush out of the hospital and to listen to the doctor. There was no need to worry about Feng Ting going to sea.

After hanging up the phone, he got up and went to the supermarket outside to buy towels, toothbrushes and other toiletries for his father.

After buying the things and Zhao Qin went upstairs, the old man next to him was still losing his temper with his son. Zhao Anguo was a little embarrassed, as if he had caused the trouble by inviting him to drink.

"I want to smoke a cigarette." He said when he saw Zhao Qin coming up.

Zhao Qin got a cart from the nurse station, helped his father onto the cart, and pushed him to the elevator entrance.

"Can you tell me what you do now?" Zhao Qin handed him a cigarette and helped light it before asking.

It was nearly nine o'clock in the evening, the whole building was quiet, and they were the only two people at the elevator entrance. Zhao Anguo still instinctively glanced around, holding a cigarette in his mouth for a moment without saying a word.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Qin became a little suspicious, "Are you doing something illegal again?"

"What do you mean, I've never done it."

As if he found this sentence unconvincing, he added: "I was picking up goods at the beach more than [-] years ago. At that time, everyone was doing it. I thought that the law should not be punished."

Seeing that Zhao Qin was silent, he asked after a while: "Do you know Tianhuang Stone and Shoushan Stone?"

"You know, the first of the four major seal stones in our country is the provincial capital..." Zhao Qin was startled at this point, "Didn't I say that digging is not allowed now? You also said that you are not doing anything illegal!"

"If you want to listen, just shut up and wait until I finish."

"You tell me." Zhao Qin took out a cigarette and lit one for himself to prepare himself mentally.

"I used to work on a construction site with more than [-] people. When the construction site was over, everyone had no jobs. I happened to meet a person at this time and told me that there was something wrong with digging Shoushan Stone..."

Zhao Qin probably understood. Hearing that Shoushan Stone was in charge, his father brought a dozen people under his command who were willing to follow him.

I saved all the money I just received from the construction site and contracted a small water vein next to the village. All I did was pick up stones by the river every day.

"Our place is not a protected mine, and we do not use machinery, so it is not illegal." This is Zhao Anguo's conclusion.

Zhao Qin was speechless, what a crude scam!

Of course it's not illegal, because there are no Tianhuang stones there. Just like when you pick up things on the beach, if you pick up gold-rich ore, it's illegal if you don't hand it over, but what you pick up are just ordinary pebbles, so it's naturally not illegal.

"Dad, haven't you ever thought that there is no Tian Huang there?"

"Of course I'm not that stupid. I definitely need to do preliminary inspections. After arriving at the place, we picked up two pieces on the first day. At that time, someone was willing to pay 1700 yuan to take them away.

But we didn’t pay for the contract at that time, so those two stones didn’t belong to us. In the end, after some haggling, we settled on [-] yuan a year for two years, and the two stones became ours. "

Zhao Qin did not rush to make any further inferences. Fortunately, the money was not much. He asked again: "How long have you been working?"

"Six months."

"How many have you picked up?"

"I picked up a lot of them, and they were only worth a few yuan. There was one thumb-sized piece of the best quality, which sold for 6600 yuan. However, a few friends had family issues and wanted to withdraw their shares, so I gave the money to them."

"How many people are following you now?"

Zhao Anguo's face turned red. He had previously boasted that he had hundreds of people, "There are...7 more."

Zhao Qin suddenly laughed, adding his father to make up the Eight Immortals. They were all immortals!

No wonder I said that if you are efficient, you can make a lot of money. This is correct. If you really find a top-quality Tianhuang stone, you can really sell it for a good price. As for whether you can find it,

Just like buying a lottery ticket, this is theoretically possible.

Fortunately, the other party didn't just cheat them out of money. I think the river was the original mining slag area, and some of it would be exposed in the river after sorting.

My father is like this. He never believes in evil and insists on trying to get good luck, but his luck is often very bad.

"Can I quit?"

"Just kidding, there is still a year and a half left, and that's [-] yuan handed over to the other party. It's not just my money, but also my friend's."

"Dad, I assume that each of you has a labor cost of 40 yuan a day. For eight people, it is 320 yuan, which is 20 yuan a month. If you finish working for another year and a half, you will have to pay a small [-] yuan for labor alone.

Including your food and drink expenses, eight people will need 60 yuan a day, and another [-] to [-] yuan for a year and a half.

This account is easy to calculate. If you close the money now, you may save money. You will only lose half a year's labor and the [-] yuan. After two years of work, I guess you will all have to go home with your buttocks naked. "

The calculation was not difficult, but Zhao Qin couldn't understand why his father didn't do it.

Zhao Anguo asked for another cigarette and lit it, but this time he really remained silent.

Seeing this, Zhao Qin had to use the method he had thought of before, "Come back to your hometown with me. I have two suggestions. One is that I will register several companies soon. You can choose one to be the general manager. Everyone will respect you in the future." Mr. Zhao.

Second, I will find a way to get you a village cadre Dangdang, who will go to the village committee every day to sit, drink tea and brag. "

Hearing the first suggestion, Zhao Anguo's eyes lit up. If he could be a boss at home, not to mention scolding Fang Qiu, but at least he would be able to brag about his rank. Who would be willing to hang around outside?

Hearing the second one, he couldn't help but sneer, "You are the county leader, whoever says village cadres can do it!"

"Don't worry about it, I have my own way."
