Riverside police

Han Yu finally broke his promise.

After attending the military congress of the military region in Jiangcheng, I didn’t bother to go to Lingchong Ferry to see Xiaoyu’s “first post on the Yangtze River”. Instead, I rushed to Yingchuang Port to pick up my senior sister, and then went to Bailong Port to pick up my dad. Mom, we then rushed to my uncle’s house in Linxi Village, Sanxing Town for dinner.

Han Yu went to primary school in the Linxi Village Primary School that has been merged, and went to junior high school in Sanxing Junior High School. He has lived here for eight years. Although Sanxing has changed a lot over the years, he is still very familiar with this place.

It’s just that grandma is gone, and I always feel like there’s something missing.

However, the whole family came back today not because there was some memorial service to be held after grandma passed away, but because my uncle and cousin had something important to announce!

Lao Han had been working on the boat for most of his life, and finally settled down. He felt that there was no need to worry about it as he got older.

Although the uncle is only two years younger than Lao Han, he looks at least ten years younger than Lao Han who has been through ups and downs in the past. He feels that he is "very young" and can still give it a try.

Luo Yanfeng listened to his wife at home, and listened to his two younger brothers at his parents' house. He didn't have any opinions, so he sat on the side and listened silently.

Han Yu and Han Xiangning did not dare to express their opinions, because their uncle and cousin actually wanted to go abroad for business. They had already applied for their passports and visas, and even booked their air tickets. They were planning to go to Romania in Eastern Europe in a few days. , I can’t even spend the Spring Festival at home.

"Yanqing, why don't you think about it again." Lao Han was still uneasy and lit up a second cigarette and persuaded: "The profits in the factory are very good and the business in the market is good. Why do you have to go abroad and live in an unfamiliar place?" , what if we lose?"

"Brother-in-law, don't look at the hundreds of people in the factory who are working enthusiastically from morning to night, but there is no profit. The market is getting bigger and bigger. As soon as the first phase is completed, the second phase is built, and the shops in the second phase are not sold out and they start again. In the third phase of development, there are more and more embroidery wholesale business owners, and the competition is becoming more and more fierce.”

As soon as my uncle finished speaking, my aunt who was very supportive of my uncle going abroad couldn't help but said: "Brother-in-law, if you don't believe me, go to the market after dinner. There are more people selling embroidery than buying embroidery." ! Last year, I could sit in the store for one day and still do two or three businesses, but now I can’t do one in three days.”

The Sanxing home textile industry emerged at the beginning of reform and opening up. At that time, every household hand-sewed pillowcases and even quilt covers, and then sold them from door to door.

Some clever and courageous villagers went to Donghai to set up a street stall in front of the Zhongbaiyi store on Nanjing East Road, carrying several large bags of pillowcases on their shoulders. Later, they went to Xichuan and Northeast China to run single gangs, purchased computer embroidery machines and even opened factories in the village, completing industrial upgrading.

Because of the good development of the home textile industry, Sanxing has become the richest town in Linghai and even Binjiang.

But Chinese people like to follow trends. When they see others making money in home textiles, everyone will follow suit. In order to increase fiscal revenue, the town and city have repeatedly expanded the Sanxing home textile market while encouraging home textile enterprises to expand their production and operation scale.

At the same time, we are recruiting businesses everywhere to collect rent from merchants in the market. While engaged in real estate, he built houses and sold them to foreign merchants who moved into the market.

There are more people in this industry, so it will be difficult to make money.

The business at home is no longer as easy as it used to be. Some people in the village have set their sights on farther places: going abroad, where there is a bigger market!

Han Yu remembered something and raised his head and said: "Uncle, I remember that in 1992, someone in the village took dozens of packages of goods to Moscow. What happened to that person? Did he make any money?"

"You are talking about Yu Xiangjian." The uncle picked up the tea cup and said with a smile: "He was bold. At that time, Russia was in short supply of daily necessities and the demand for textiles was great. It was just that it was his first time to go abroad to do business and he had no experience in the language. It doesn’t make sense either. The goods go out but you don’t get the money, and in the end you lose all your money.”

Although Lao Han didn't barge in, because the boat people had no homes on the shore, they used to call this place their home. He was very familiar with the situation in the village, so he subconsciously asked: "Are you talking about the director of the furniture factory in the village before?"

"Well, that's him."

The uncle smiled and continued: "Although he didn't make any money that time, he found that there were indeed business opportunities in Eastern Europe. After he came back, he regrouped and went abroad again. He didn't go to Russia again. He went to Romania and sent a container for trial sales. The goods sold out in less than a month.

Since then, there have been so many orders that he has been busy. He has opened up the market in Romania and established a firm foothold. All his relatives followed him and are now doing home textile business in Romania. I thought about it for a whole year and finally figured it out. Only by going to places that others don’t go can you make money that others can’t! "

Han Yu asked in surprise: "Uncle, how many people in the village have gone to Romania?"

"No less than a hundred, all doing well in Romania."

"How many more people want to go?"

"It's getting harder and harder to do business at home, and now everyone wants to go abroad to do business."

"If everyone goes, won't they get together again?"

"Don't worry, we Linxi people can endure hardships and love to stick together, but we don't get together. The ones who are engaging in vicious competition now are not our locals, but the foreign monks that the government has recruited over the years to attract investment." The uncle took a sip of tea and was full of pride. Said: "I have discussed with Luo Hao to go to Romania first. If the home textile market in Romania is saturated, we will go to Hungary and Poland around Romania!"

"Uncle, do you speak Hungarian?"

"Won't."

"What about Polish?"

"No, but we can learn. Yu Xiangjian is about the same age as me, and he is in the same home textile business. The only difference is that he sells goods to foreigners. If he can succeed, I may not be able to!"

The uncle is determined and full of ambition.

The eldest cousin Luo Hao really wanted to go abroad to see the world and make a lot of money. He couldn't help laughing and said: "San'er, actually my family went abroad to do business a little late. You have seen Party Secretary Cai. Party Secretary Cai went abroad to do business in 1997. Tell me." I definitely can’t believe that the money he earned from the first container shipped to Romania was something we couldn’t earn even after two or three years of hard work in our hometown!”

"Zhishu Cai went abroad?"

"you do not know?"

"I really do not know."

"Although he went there later than Director Yu, he is now doing business in Romania better than Director Yu. When he came back last time, my dad and I went to look for him. He said that he was looking for him during the day when he first went there. business, I learned the language at night, and quickly adapted to the Romanian environment, and now I have my own shop in Romania.”

"Then will he still be the village party secretary now?"

"Let's do it. He comes back every six months to deal with village affairs. The town and city are very supportive and encourage us to go abroad to find markets."

The town and city support it, and the village party secretary takes the lead. No wonder they all want to go abroad.

This was also the case when we were engaged in home textiles. Village cadres and township cadres took the lead in taking the risk of being caught and jailed for "speculation". Under their leadership, the current Sanxing home textile market was established.

It is conceivable that as they set their sights overseas, many people in the textile industry in Sanxing will go abroad to do business in the near future!

The village party secretary and the village's powerful man, Director Yu, are both in Romania and have established a firm foothold. Han Yu has nothing to worry about when his uncle and cousin go there. Besides, they are determined and the only thing they can do is support.

During the meal, in front of my uncle and cousin, I called the director of Binjiang Customs Linghai Office and asked him to take care of me. After all, it was impossible for my uncle and cousin to go abroad to do business with nothing, and they had to follow up next. They also ship to Romania, container by container.

They were very helpful and even introduced a reliable freight forwarder.

As for what happens to the family after my uncle and cousin go abroad, Lao Han and Han's mother will naturally come to help...

Back in Bailong Port, after taking a shower and lying on the bed, Han Xiangning said with emotion: "San'er, your uncle is so awesome. He didn't even finish elementary school, and he's already so old, and he still wants to go abroad. Follow him After a comparison, I found that we were really hopeless."

"It is said that times create heroes, but in fact, environment and atmosphere can also change people."

"What's the meaning?"

"That's Sanxing. Sanxing people are the best at doing business. If you work and live in Sanxing for a period of time, you will also be good at doing business."

"How about I resign and go to work like your uncle to do home textiles?"

"You'd better forget it. Besides, you need capital to do business."

"That's true. We are so poor that we have no money to do business."

When they talked about money, Han Yu couldn't sleep. He quickly got up and turned on the light, put on his coat, took out the tickets in his bag, then opened the drawer and found the reimbursement receipts and glue stickers one by one.

After calculating how much money to reimburse and filling out the reimbursement form, Han Yu got into bed and said with a smile: "I'm going to see Xiaoyu early tomorrow morning, and then go to Donghai from Taoming. You can help me bring the ticket to Minister Feng when you go to work tomorrow. Please help me reimburse you, Minister Feng, when you have time."

"How much?"

"Two hundred and seventy-six dollars."

"Is it reimbursed by the military division or by your regiment?"

"The work in the regiment is in charge of Minister Feng. I don't know whether it is sent to the military branch for reimbursement or reported in the regiment."

Although my junior classmate is busy attending meetings these days, he has not fallen behind in his studies.

Carry books with you wherever you go, and study by yourself whenever you have time.

Han Xiangning hugged his arm and asked distressedly: "San'er, are you tired from studying and are you under a lot of pressure?"

"I used to be very tired and stressed, but now I am not so tired. Judging from the current study progress, I estimate that I can graduate in three and a half years."

"You want to complete undergraduate and graduate courses in three and a half years?"

"I don't have to take all the undergraduate courses, but choose to take them. You Jiahuai helped me analyze that it is not difficult to get credits for many courses. I have some basics in English and professional courses, and it is not very difficult to learn. Mainly mathematics and The computer needs some work.”

"It seems I have to hurry up. Your full-time graduate student has graduated, and the part-time graduate student I am studying has not graduated yet."

"Is there a lot of work over there at the water law enforcement base?"

"Everything is difficult at the beginning. I have been busy and tired during this period. When work officially starts and everything is on track, I will not be so tired now."

Han Yu remembered something again and said quickly: "Ning Ning, I almost forgot in my busy schedule. One of my classmates is preparing for his graduation thesis. The research direction he chose is transportation management during the construction of key projects. Our tutor knows that Binjiang is undergoing When building the Yangtze River Bridge, he asked me if I was familiar with the leaders of the project headquarters."

Han Xiangning asked subconsciously: "Your teacher wants that classmate to come to Binjiang to do scientific research?"

"It's not about doing scientific research. I just want to come and see and learn, and I want to collect some information and data."

"I will ask the leadership of the headquarters tomorrow. The construction of the bridge is not a military project, and the management of water traffic during the construction period does not involve engineering technology. Anyway, it should have nothing to do with confidentiality. I don't think the problem is big."

"Let me thank you first on behalf of my classmate. If you really come, help him prepare a dormitory on the barge."

"OK."
