Return to the 80s, from touching loaches to becoming the world's richest man
Chapter 72 Buying Tickets
It was almost noon when Lu Hai returned to Ping'an County. Since there was not much food at home, Lu Hai still had to go to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Yang Huaiding, who had been working as a ticket scalper at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, went straight to greet Lu Hai when he saw him.
"Brother Lu, I found the motorcycle ticket you asked me to find earlier."
Lu Hai didn't expect to hear such good news as soon as he arrived.
No wonder Lu Hai was so excited. It was really annoying running around all this time.
If I had a motorcycle, it would be so much more convenient.
And having a motorcycle makes it convenient to go to the city if there is an emergency.
The most important thing is that it makes it convenient for me to travel back and forth between villages.
But then Yang Huaiding's face suddenly fell again, "However, Brother Lu, this person holds the ticket tightly, knowing that this is a rare thing, so the price is a bit high."
When Lu Hai heard this, he immediately asked curiously, "How much did he charge?"
"It cost fifty yuan." Yang Huaiding replied.
When Lu Hai heard this, he also understood Yang Huaiding's dilemma.
After all, I had bought so many tickets before, including meat tickets, sugar tickets, grain and oil tickets which were relatively rare tickets, but all of them added up to only thirty yuan.
A train ticket now costs fifty yuan. Even if he works as a ticket scalper, he has never seen such expensive tickets!
You have to know that such a ticket only means that you are eligible to buy a car, it does not mean that you own the car, and you still have to pay a lot of money in the end!
Lu Hai originally thought that the other party offered a price of several hundred yuan, but after hearing the price, he was stunned at first, and then his tone was filled with disbelief.
"so cheap?"
"Ah?" Yang Huaiding thought he had misheard, "Brother, are you kidding? Fifty yuan for a ticket, is that cheap?"
Lu Hai nodded strangely, "It's really cheap..."
However, Lu Hai reacted quickly.
Yang Huaiding had not experienced the following few years, so naturally he did not know the value of the train ticket.
Although motorcycles have existed for several years, not many people know about them, and the production volume is not large, so naturally they are not as well-known as bicycles.
But Lu Hai knew that in the following years, as people's horizons broadened, train tickets became more and more expensive.
At the most expensive time, tickets even sold for two or three hundred yuan each.
The main reason is that tickets are too scarce, so when one appears, there is basically a scramble to get one.
Some scalpers even buy tickets for 200 yuan and still make a profit in the end.
It may sound incredible, but just think about the premium paid for top luxury cars in later generations.
Today, the status of motorcycles is equivalent to that of sports cars in the country in later generations, so it is understandable that there is a premium.
In his previous life, Lu Hai often went to the village, so he naturally bought one. He remembered very clearly that he spent a full three hundred yuan to buy the ticket from a scalper.
Although the income of the people across the country began to grow in the 80s, the three hundred yuan at that time was not as valuable as the three hundred yuan in the early 80s, but compared with the current fifty yuan for a bus ticket, it was still very cost-effective.
Then, Lu Hai took out a hundred yuan and handed it to Yang Huaiding, "Then please buy the ticket for me. The extra fifty yuan is your reward. After all, you have done a lot of work for me this month."
After all, over the past month, he and his brother-in-law had often asked Yang Huaiding to run errands, but Yang Huaiding had never mentioned any remuneration. Even if he had no credit, he had worked hard, and he could not treat him unfairly.
Then Lu Hai continued, "In addition, the purchase of mountain products can also be put on the agenda. You can bring as much as you receive to my house every day, and then I will settle the bill for you."
"I'll give you a price difference of five cents per pound based on the previous price."
Yang Huaiding was immediately delighted when he saw this, as he had been thinking about this business for a long time.
After all, if he helps Lu Hai collect 1,000 kilograms of mountain products a day, he can earn 50 yuan.
Although you may not be able to catch that much, it is no problem for one person to catch dozens of kilograms of seafood in an afternoon, but it is not the case with mountain products.
However, Yang Huaiding estimated that it would be no problem to produce several hundred kilograms a day.
This is definitely better than being a scalper yourself!
"Okay, thank you Brother Lu, I'll go buy the ticket now." Yang Huaiding took the money and didn't act pretentiously. After all, his intention in helping Lu Hai was to make money.
It's good that both sides get what they need.
"Yeah." But before Yang Huaiding left, Lu Hai reminded him again.
"But you have to remember not to reveal your cards right away. Haggle first."
"Don't worry, Brother Lu, I understand!"
Looking at Yang Huaiding's departing back, Lu Hai shook his head and walked into the supply and marketing cooperative...
