Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 13 Preparation ()

It was mid-May. At this time, Lu Jiayao, Lu Jiahui, Lu Jiacheng, and Lu Chang were all sitting together at Lu Shaohua's home. If others knew, they would have thought they were having a family meeting.

"Brother, please say something. Go find Brother Xia Weng as soon as possible." The whole family was sitting in the living room and no one spoke. Finally, it was Lu Jiahui, who had the most generous personality, who spoke the first word.

"Third brother, don't be anxious. We haven't even figured out how to transport it yet. Why go looking for Brother Weng? You know what kind of person Brother Weng is. He will do what he promised." Lu Jiayao said while still sitting there calmly.

It would be a lie to say that Lu Jiayao was not anxious, but he could still sit there calmly and talk easily. This was all because of the "genius" at home, so he could be said to be not anxious at all.

"Brother, don't tell me. Lao Wei, you are a college student, so you tell me what to do. The lychees are ripe. If we don't buy them now, we won't be able to buy even the residue, let alone go to Shenzhen to explore the market." Lu Jiahui looked at Lu Jiayao and felt extremely depressed. So he passed the problem to the college student at home.

Lu Chang felt even more depressed. This question was like a ball that had been kicked around and finally landed on a college student like him. He rolled his eyes and suddenly seemed to remember something. He then said, "Xiaohua, it was you who came up with the idea of ​​shipping the lychees to Shenzhen. Now that the lychees are ripe, what do you think of shipping them to Shenzhen?"

(I feel that this whole family is good at playing football. If they were allowed to play football, they would have made it to the World Cup long ago.)

Lu Shaohua had long guessed that the family would eventually ask about his transportation, so he simply said, "It's impossible to hire a car now. Not to mention the high transportation fee, even if they have the money to hire a car, they are not willing to go such a long distance. So, we can just send a car, and it's very cheap."

"Send a car?" The four Lu Jiayao brothers asked in unison.

"That's right, we're going to send a car, and put it on a bus heading to Shenzhen. We just need to discuss it with the bus driver and give him some money." Lu Shaohua didn't keep anyone in suspense and directly told him the plan he had already thought of.

"Haha, you are such a smart kid. Even your uncle, a college student, couldn't solve the problem, but you solved it." When Lu Jiahui praised Lu Shaohua, he did not forget to use his youngest brother as a reference. Lu Chang, who was sitting next to him, rolled his eyes. If he were asked to think about it, he would not have thought of sending lychees on the bus.

"Okay, the transportation problem has been solved. I will go to Brother Weng's house and talk to him. Then let's prepare for the acquisition." Lu Jiayao also thought that this method was good, and the stone in his heart was relieved. He hurried to Weng Zhangkun's house to contact him.

"Wait a minute, Dad." Now that the transportation problem has been solved, the personnel going to Shenzhen have not been solved yet. Since the family finally sat together, they had to solve all the problems before doing other things. In addition, he had to go with him. If his father didn't let him go, he had to find a way to persuade his uncle to tell his father to let him go. After all, he had talked with his uncle for so long before, just to shock his uncle and make him feel that he was not simple. In this way, if his father didn't agree to his things, he would go to his uncle and let his uncle talk to his father, and then he would have to agree even if he didn't agree. But why did his uncle agree? This is something you have to ask Lu Chang, who is a college student!

"what happened?"

"Dad, who are you going to arrange to go to Shenzhen?"

"Need I say more? Your third uncle, fourth uncle, and youngest uncle are all here. I'll be alone at home." Lu Jiayao looked at Lu Shaohua as if he was a fool.

"Sure enough, they won't let me go." Lu Shaohua thought to himself, and then objected: "This arrangement won't work."

"Why not? How do you plan to arrange it?" Lu Jiayao originally thought that this was an easy matter. Three of the four brothers would go, and he would be responsible for purchasing the lychees at home and then transporting them to the bus station and loading them onto the bus. However, from Lu Shaohua's tone, he knew that he did not agree.

"My third and fourth uncles can take the first batch of lychees to Shenzhen, but my youngest uncle can't. He has to stay at home to buy lychees. After all, he is a college student and has a good reputation, so it is easier for him to buy them." Lu Shaohua knew the market price of lychees outside. In 85, most lychees were exported and not many were sold domestically. But if their family transports the lychees to the special economic zone of Shenzhen, they will probably sell out quickly.

"Well, that makes sense. Then let your uncle stay at home to do the purchasing. After all, it's easier to deal with a college student. As for your going to Shenzhen, that won't work. You're so young, why would you go there? You can't help, and you'll just cause trouble." Lu Jiayao was firmly opposed to Lu Shaohua's plan to go to Shenzhen. Although he thought his son was smart, he was still young after all. His little cleverness was not enough to go to a "big place" like Shenzhen.

Lu Shaohua didn't expect his father to be so resolutely opposed. He looked at Lu Chang with aggrieved eyes, and it was obvious that he was asking Lu Chang for "advice".

Lu Chang, who received the look, didn't know what Lu Shaohua meant. In fact, he also felt that if he stayed at home, Lu Shaohua would have to go to Shenzhen with him. The reason why he was so convinced by Lu Shaohua was due to the long talk last time. Now Lu Shaohua was a complete adult in his heart. And from Lu Shaohua's words and gestures, he knew that he was not simple, so going to Shenzhen with him would only benefit him and not harm him. So he said seriously: "Brother, let Xiaohua go with you. He thinks quickly and it will be helpful if he goes."

Seeing Lu Chang's serious expression, Lu Jiayao smiled bitterly in his heart. Could he say no? Of course not, he could only nod helplessly. "Okay, follow me, I'm going to Brother Weng's house." After saying that, he walked towards the door.

"Dad, remember to ask Uncle Weng to copy the address so it will be easier to find when the time comes."

"understood"

……

In the next few days, Lu Shaohua's family became busy again. Lu Chang went out to discuss the transportation of litchi with the bus driver, Lu Jiayao went to find some people who could weave bamboo frames, and Lu Jiahui and Lu Cheng were responsible for cutting bamboo and weaving frames for others.

This time Lu Shaohua was not idle. In addition to exercising in the morning, he went around the nearby villages to see which village had a higher yield of lychees so that it would be more convenient to purchase them. In two or three days, he visited almost all the lychee orchards in the town. If it weren't for his nearly a year of exercise, his body would have been exhausted.

That night, the whole family gathered together again at Lu Jiayao's house. After everyone sat down, Lu Jiayao asked, "'Laowei', have you discussed it with the driver?"

"Yes, it's all discussed."

"Third brother, fourth brother, how many days will it take to weave the bamboo you cut?" Lu Jiayao asked Lu Jiahui and Lu Jiacheng again.

"It's enough for more than ten days." Lu Jiacheng, who seldom speaks, replied.

"Well, let's start purchasing lychees tomorrow afternoon. Let's first purchase a dozen baskets and ship them out for trial. If the market is not good, we won't purchase them." Lu Jiayao announced when he knew that everything was ready.

Although Lu Shaohua could go to Shenzhen in a few days, when he heard Lu Jiayao's announcement, although his expression was still as calm as usual, he was shouting in his heart: "Shenzhen, I'm coming."
