Quickly wear it and get rid of his virtuous character
Chapter 431 Good Brothers 4
I bought some used books worth about five or six yuan today, and I made three or four times the money by just reselling them, which is equivalent to making back the money sponsored by my eldest brother. I also have dozens of picture books in my hands, which can be sold for another three or four yuan when the time comes.
The main reason is that university students are quite wealthy. Not only do the government cover their tuition and living expenses, but they even receive a subsidy every month. Their old books are sold at a low price, so there are quite a lot of people patronizing the books.
After selling most of the books, Su Tong packed up his things and rode to the recycling station, where he collected a large number of old books. After this transaction, he also knew what kind of books the college students mainly bought. In addition to some common world classics, some poems and the like were also very popular.
When he was rushing home with a lot of things on his back, he happened to meet Gu Xiangming who had just returned. When he saw him, he blinked his eyes with an expression of disbelief.
Su Tong now is no longer the sunny and sweet girl she used to be. As she has been walking under the scorching sun all the time and has stayed in the waste recycling station for such a long time, her whole body has become dirty and her face is covered with black and white spots. She might have thought she was a refugee from Africa.
"Where did you go?" Gu Xiangming asked with a smile.
Su Tong looked at the other person, not knowing whether he was truly righteous or just fulfilling his vanity for the sake of so-called accomplishments, but he was definitely not a good person, so he maintained a polite attitude.
"Oh, I've recently fallen in love with reading, so I went to the recycling station and bought some old books." Su Tong said as he wiped the sweat off his head. "Oh, Brother Gu, it's getting late. I should go back. Let's talk tomorrow."
"Wait a moment." Gu Xiangming stopped Su Tong, but did not say anything. He just looked at Su Tong's hand.
Just when Su Tong was confused, the other party spoke, "Tongtong, where is your milk? My good brother's sister is still waiting for your milk. You know their family is poor. The sister is skinny. She is obviously 7 years old this year, but she looks like a or -year-old child. It's very pitiful. Just think of it as a good deed. Don't worry, they won't forget you."
Su Tong was not opposed to doing good deeds, but the things he gave to the little girl did not end up in her stomach.
"Brother Gu, I almost forgot to tell you that my mother said the weather has been too hot recently and she was afraid that the milk would go bad, so she didn't order it for me and my brother.
I did raise objections, but my mother didn't listen to me at all. Brother Gu, if it really doesn't work, you can spend some money to buy some milk powder for the little girl. It's a pity that I have spent all my pocket money, otherwise I would have to sponsor a little bit."
Where does Gu Xiangming get the money? Basically, Su Tong sponsored him with part of the money, plus his own pocket money, and also some money sponsored by his younger brothers.
Gu Xiangming was really broke now, but thinking of the poor little girl, he said, "Okay, I'll figure it out myself."
Su Tong smiled. He didn’t know what the other party would come up with, but it had nothing to do with him. He rode his bike back happily.
When Mother Su found out that her daughter was selling used books at a stall, her first reaction was that her daughter was suffering, so she immediately took out two dollars from her pocket and handed it to her daughter.
"Just buy whatever you want. Why do you have to suffer so much? Your money is not needed at home." Mother Su grumbled, "It's so big out there. You'd better not get tanned as a girl, otherwise you won't be able to get married in the future."
Su Tong snorted coldly, then took out stacks of bills, "I don't want to marry a stinky man. Look at the money I made today. My goodness, I didn't expect that small business could make so much money. I just put in some effort to set up a stall, and I made more than 20 yuan today. If I can keep doing this, I can make 600 yuan a month, and more than 7000 yuan a year. Maybe one day I can become a millionaire."
When Mr. Su heard his daughter's words, he was so shocked that he put down the newspaper and asked, "Is setting up a street stall really that profitable?"
Su Tong nodded affirmatively, "Of course, old books are not expensive now, and many people are still willing to buy them. Besides, the college entrance examination has been resumed, and people have begun to pay attention to knowledge. Many families are willing to buy a few books to take home and read."
Mother Su still gave a few words of advice, "It's okay to set up a stall and do some small business, just treat it as training yourself, but don't expand it too much, the control in this area is still very strict now."
Su Tong naturally understood this logic, and he sold the few picture books he had bought that night, and he usually sold them at a price of 20 cents. An ordinary child would need at least one dollar to buy a new book in a bookstore, but now it only cost a few cents, and although the books were a bit old, they were still readable.
Su Tong has a pretty good relationship with the kids in this area. Before 8 o'clock in the evening, all the books he had were sold out. There was even a kid who planned to bring his classmates over tomorrow to buy a few more books.
Su Tong returned to his room and counted his money happily. Thinking about the big money he would make tomorrow, he was so happy that he could hardly close his mouth.
The next morning, without his parents urging him, Su Tong ran to the university to set up a stall after breakfast. He happened to meet some old men and women who were out for morning exercises. They were all intellectuals, so they followed them and bought several books, which earned him a lot of money.
The next few days Su Tong was looking for old books on the streets. After Su Yaoyang learned about this profitable business, he also started to do it with his sister, because his sister promised that as long as he helped sell the books, they would split the profits 70% to 30%, with Su Tong taking 70% and his brother taking 30%.
The unusual behavior of the Su siblings soon attracted other people's attention. When Gu Xiangming learned that they were selling old books, he also became interested, because he had been catching fish in the small river in the countryside during this period, thinking about giving the little girl some nourishment.
"Is selling old books really profitable?" Gu Xiangming suddenly had an idea. He asked other brothers to collect three dollars, and then went to the scrap recycling station to buy a lot of old books. Since he did not check them carefully the first time, most of the old books were incomplete. Although he made money, it was very little.
All things are difficult at the beginning. After the first experience, Gu Xiangming bought a large number of books again. This time, he asked a few younger brothers to sell the books in other schools. Then he asked the younger brothers to use their expertise to find a few classmates and ask them to help buy books. In this way, they made a lot of money.
After Su Yaoyang learned about this, he was so angry that he went straight to Gu Xiangming to confront him, "You are my brother, but you are trying to steal my business. It's not easy for us to run a small business, and we were hoping to make money to buy a TV. But you, my brother, are trying to steal my business. Do you have any shame?"
