Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

Chapter 71 Don’t Die Too Early

In the evening, Li Youcai was soaking his feet at home.

Li Youjie hurried over and rushed into Li Youcai's house: "Brother, I saw it!"

"What did you see?" Li Youcai asked while wiping his feet with a sackcloth.

"It was Du Yong and his wife who were hanging out with those people. I saw it clearly!" After following them for three days, Li Youjie finally found out who betrayed them.

Li Youcai didn't tell Chu Xinyan about what happened in the factory these days, so as not to upset Chu Xinyan.

At this moment, Li Youjie looked indignant. In addition, Li Youcai had been going out early and coming back late these days, which made Chu Xinyan wonder if something had happened.

"Youcai, is there something wrong?" Chu Xinyan asked.

"It's okay, just a little business competition. Don't worry, I can handle it."

Li Youcai said it calmly, but Chu Xinyan felt that Li Youcai was not telling him the truth.

If it was just a small matter, Li Youjie wouldn't be so anxious.

"I just want to see if I can help you." Chu Xinyan said softly.

Since the day Li Youcai went up the mountain to catch toads, his business has been growing bigger and bigger.

He used to be a gambler who was despised by everyone, but now he has become a capable man who is praised by everyone in the team.

He also set up a factory and became its director.

Chu Xinyan feels this particularly clearly as she takes care of the children at home every day. Although Li Youcai comes home every day, he is still as nice to her and Duoduo as ever.

But I rarely mentioned things about the factory to her anymore.

Chu Xinyan didn’t understand whether the current situation was good or bad. She just instinctively felt that there seemed to be a gap between her and Li Youcai.

She felt like a useless housewife, doing laundry, cooking and taking care of children every day. She clearly wanted to help Li Youcai, but found that she seemed to be unable to do anything.

A sense of loss arises spontaneously.

"It's already very hard for you to take care of Duoduo and manage the family. Don't worry, I can handle the things outside." Li Youcai said with a smile.

"Brother, what should we do next? What ideas do you have? Can you tell me now?" Li Youjie asked.

Li Youcai raised his lips and said, "Baldy Chen is waging a price war with us simply to wear us out. He's figured our production costs are higher than his, so he wants to strangle us by the neck at 5 cents, and let us slowly bleed to death."

Li Youcai sneered and continued, "He can only use these little tricks to fight me. To call him my opponent is an exaggeration."

"Tomorrow, I will find a group of people to pretend to be peddlers and come to our place to buy goods. You sell all our ice cream to people with towels around their necks, and they will take our goods somewhere else."

Getting a bunch of people to buy your ice cream and then deliver it to other places? Is that a solution?

Li Youjie couldn't understand what the point of his elder brother doing this was.

"Brother, if you do this, we won't be able to sell our goods. Besides, the factory is still continuing production. This way, our inventory of goods will only increase, and the remaining money won't last long." Li Youjie said.

According to Li Youcai's method, the factory appeared to be selling goods, but in reality, both money and goods were transferred from one pocket to the right.

The goods did not turn into money.

But the raw materials still need to be purchased continuously.

As a result, the money earned by the ice cream factory during this period will not last long. It will be spent in ten days or half a month at most. Once the capital chain is broken, they will be really finished.

"Don't worry about anything else, just do as I say." Li Youcai said.

Li Youjie remained silent.

I tried to understand my brother's intention according to Li Youcai's thoughts.

Pretend to sell your own goods and then hide them. In this way, the goods will not be sold at a low price, and you will not suffer a loss.

Those peddlers who couldn't buy goods from them had no choice but to go to Chen Tuzi to buy goods. The more Chen Tuzi sold, the more he lost.

so···

Is this what Big Brother is planning?

Should I pretend to sell goods while letting Baldy Chen actually sell the goods and then I will lose money first?

"Brother, I understand! You set a trap for Baldy Chen. First, you pretend that we are also losing money selling goods, but in fact, you haven't sold anything at all. You force those peddlers to buy goods from Baldy Chen and make him lose all his money?" Li Youjie expressed his guess.

After hearing this, Li Youcai really looked at his younger brother in a different light.

It's really good that this guy can think of this so quickly.

"That's about right." Li Youcai nodded with a smile and continued, "Don't alarm Du Yong and his wife. They still have some use."

"Okay, I get it. I'm still the same as usual at the factory." Li Youjie also agreed with this point.

But Li Youjie was still a little worried. After all, they didn't know the financial situation of Chen Tuzi and his men.

Even if they succeed and drive all the peddlers to their side to suck their blood, if Baldy Chen survives and they don't have the funds to continue purchasing raw materials, they will still lose.

"Brother, I'm still a little worried. The money left in the factory is only enough to last for about 10 days. What if, I mean, what if Baldy Chen is not sucked to death, what should we do?" Li Youjie said.

"Don't worry about the money. I'll give you some extra money."

"As for Baldy Chen, the fact that he went to find Du Yong and his wife shows that his situation isn't good either. But I hope he can hold on for a while. If it ends too soon, it would be too boring."

Li Youcai calculated the production cost of ice cream very carefully.

Even if Baldy Chen didn't have any labor costs and saved a little more than his side, it would definitely be more than 5 cents. Now everyone has lowered the price to 5 cents. Baldy Chen just cut his veins with a knife and watched himself bleed.

What's more, Li Youcai had a trick up his sleeve that he didn't tell Li Youjie.

Now Li Youcai hopes that Chen Tuzi can hold on a little longer, and hope that he won’t fall down so soon.

"Okay, it's getting late. You should go back quickly and have some rest. You have to go to work tomorrow." Li Youcai ordered him to leave.

"I'm leaving."

"Sister-in-law, I'm leaving."

"Goodbye, uncle..." Duoduo called to Li Youjie in a childish voice.

Li Youjie pushed his bicycle back home.

Chu Xinyan hugged Duoduo.

She heard clearly the conversation between Li Youcai and Li Youjie just now. Their words were full of calculations and struggles. Although there was no swordplay, it was still full of danger.

Once again, she felt the difficulty of doing business.

Everything was not as calm as Li Youcai appeared.

Looking at Li Youcai.

He has to bear so much for this family, he must be very tired!

"Let me rub your shoulders and help you relax."

Chu Xinyan felt that she could not help Li Youcai, so the only thing she could think of was to give Li Youcai a massage to relax his body.

"Okay!"

The slender fingers gently kneaded Li Youcai's shoulders.

Comfortable···

Li Youcai flew up comfortably.
