On the surface, Li Shiqiang made less than 400 RMB from this transaction. But many of the Treasury bonds were bought below market value. Li Shiqiang had made nearly 10,000 RMB.
Unfortunately, he had more money on hand. This nearly 10,000 RMB did not surprise Li Shiqiang much. This is the result of two months of hard work. He used 200,000 RMB and sat on the train for so long and only earned less than 10,000 RMB. He might as well help someone to exchange the maturing Treasury bonds. Less work, more money, and closer to home.
Furthermore, this round trip had cost them a lot of money. Li Shiqiang felt that there was no need to come again. If Feng Yu could get some foreign exchange, it would be better. Foreign exchange bonds were not easy to get.
There were very few people on the train back. Feng Yu and Li Shiqiang were sitting on the lower berth. In front of them was roast chicken, peanuts, etc. But both of them did not drink.
"Brother Li, let me calculate for you. When you help others to exchange Treasury bonds, the face value is only 5 RMB and 10 RMB, right? But there are 50 RMB, 100 RMB, 500 RMB, 1,000 RMB and 5,000 RMB in Treasury bonds. Why do you only get 5 RMB and 10 RMB notes? "Feng Yu said while tearing a chicken drumstick.
"I also don't know. It seems that when the face value is too high, people are not willing to sell." Li Shiqiang said and threw a peanut into his mouth.
"This is the money you earned from running errands. For 10 RMB, the interest for 5 years is 2 RMB. If you give 1 RMB more, people will be too lazy to go to the bank and sell it to you. But for 100 RMB, the interest is 20 RMB. Do you think people will be willing to give you 10 RMB for 20 RMB? "
Li Shiqiang said. "Then I can also earn 1 RMB. For 100 RMB, I will give 119 RMB." Li Shiqiang argued.
Feng Yu shook his head: "Do you know about capital? Do you know about cost? We must try our best to turn the money we have into living money and let the money flow. Originally, 11 RMB can earn 1 RMB. Now, you made it 119 RMB to earn 1 RMB. Although we can receive more Treasury bonds, do you think our profits have increased? "Feng Yu asked.
Li Shiqiang scratched his head. What Feng Yu said makes sense. But what Feng Yu said about buying and selling Treasury bonds in two places is not reliable. He worked hard to earn less than 400 RMB and he still needs to take leave. It is not worth it.
Feng Yu looked at Li Shiqiang's indifferent look and waved the piece of paper in his hand with the phone number written on it: "Soon, Bing City will be a pilot project to allow Treasury bonds to be traded freely. When Bing City is open to the public, you can make these calls. You will understand then. "
Feng Yu kept watch for the first half of the night while Li Shiqiang kept watch for the second half of the night. When Feng Yu woke up in the morning, it was already time to get off the bus.
This time, Feng Yu did not take the bus. Instead, Li Shiqiang gave him a free ride to the Post Office's bus. Although he had to make two turns, he was guaranteed to arrive before noon.
Back at school, Teacher Sun asked about Feng Yu. Feng Yu said that his relative had survived and his condition was getting better. He hurried back.
After school, Li Shiqiang stayed in the classroom and looked for Li Na to tutor him. He also taught Russian to Li Na and both of them made rapid progress.
After a week, Bing City also allowed Treasury bonds to be traded freely. Li Shiqiang remembered what Feng Yu said and dialed the number of Shencheng Hua Xia Bank.
"Hello, what is the current price of Treasury bonds? How much did you say? "Li Shiqiang's eyes widened and his breathing became rapid.
Li Shiqiang could not believe it and dialed the number one by one.
Rise, a huge rise!
Now, the price of 100 RMB Treasury bonds in Shencheng had become 105 RMB. It has only been a few days and the price of Treasury bonds has risen so much.
If Li Shiqiang brought 200,000 RMB Treasury bonds to the bank, he could earn 1,000 RMB. This is a good business and the profits are much easier than selling small denomination Treasury bonds!
Li Shiqiang immediately applied for leave from his leader and brought all his money to the nearby ICBC bank. He said: "I am here to buy Treasury bonds. I want as many as you have!"
"Young man, do you know how many tasks we have received this month? 100,000 RMB! How many more do you want? How many can you buy? "The bank president was also there and looked down on this young man who was arrogant because he had a little money.
Li Shiqiang did not care and said loudly: "Then I want all 100,000 RMB!"
"What did you say?" The bank president's hand that was holding the teacup trembled violently. The hot tea spilled on his hand but he did not feel it at all.
"I said I want all of them." Li Shiqiang said and put his backpack on the counter.
This time everyone looked at Li Shiqiang. Could it be that this kid is carrying 100,000 RMB in cash?
When Li Shiqiang took out 10 bundles of 100 RMB notes from his backpack, everyone in the bank looked at him with envy, jealousy and doubt.
"Those few windows are closed. Hurry up and come over to help count the notes."
In this era, money counting machines were just popular in banks and there were frequent errors. So most banks are still used to counting money by hand.
There were long queues at other places except for Li Shiqiang. Not only everyone was busy helping him, the bank president even came over personally to light a Teha cigarette for him.
"Young man, what do you do?" The bank president asked with a smile.
Li Shiqiang looked at the bank president warily: "I am in the leather goods business. I made some money and wanted to support the country. That's why I came to buy Treasury bonds."
In this era, to make money in the leather goods business, the goods must be shipped to the south. This kid must have just returned from the south. The bank president looked at Li Shiqiang and sighed at this kid's good luck.
10 minutes later, the counting was completed. Li Shiqiang also counted all the Treasury bonds and put them into his backpack. He hugged the backpack and left.
Li Shiqiang brought 200,000 RMB this time. He only bought 100,000 RMB here. He still needs to go to other banks to buy more.
Li Shiqiang went to another bank and once again enjoyed the admiring gazes of others. When he took out the 100,000 RMB notes, he immediately became the focus of everyone. This feeling is great!
Li Shiqiang took the train to Shen city alone. He remembered Feng Yu's words. He must buy a sleeper and a top bunk. This way, it will not be stolen easily.
Although there were very few people on the train, Li Shiqiang still resisted the sleepiness and did not dare to fall asleep. But in the middle of the night, he fell asleep.
When he was woken up by the train conductor, he was shocked. He saw that his backpack was still in his arms and the Treasury bonds were still there. He breathed a sigh of relief.
After selling all 200,000 RMB worth of Treasury bonds, Li Shiqiang casually bought a few buns and rushed to the train station to buy a return ticket. He did not dare to stay for a moment longer.
When he returned to Bing City, it was already night time. Li Shiqiang could not help but call Feng Yu's school number at the train station. 10 minutes later, when Feng Yu called back, he shouted excitedly: "Xiao Yu, the 100 RMB note has become 105 RMB. I earned almost 900 RMB on this trip. We are going to be rich!"
Feng Yu's relaxed voice came through the phone: "Calm down, Brother Li. This is just a small amount of money. In the future, we will be making a fortune! "
