Before Feng Yu could explain, the dishes were already on the table. Because they still have to drive for 3 to 4 hours in the afternoon, Feng Xingtai only drank a bottle of beer and Feng Yu could only drink soda.
But both families had a good chat. If it were not for Feng Yu's reminder, Feng Xingtai would have already decided to marry his future in-laws.
Please, sister is only 19 years old and is still in school. Even if he wants to get married, he must wait until sister graduates from nursing school.
Feng Yu continued to pester Li Shiqiang at the table. But this time, he did not mention about Treasury bonds. He must first let Li Shiqiang believe that Feng Yu has a way to make money.
"What did you say? Uncle Feng has 20,000 Rubles in his bag? Are you kidding me? "
Li Shiqiang almost jumped up when he heard this news. This is a huge sum of 20,000 Rubles. It is enough to buy several houses the size of his house in Bing City.
Didn't Danying say that her family is only a 10,000 RMB household? How can she have so much money and still carry it with her?
"I am not kidding. Brother Li, you are working at the Post Office. There must be a lot of people who want to exchange Rubles, right? But to exchange at the bank, you need to apply and foreign exchange certificates. It is very troublesome and you cannot exchange much. I heard that if you exchange privately, the price will be much higher than at the bank. "
Li Shiqiang looked at Feng Yu: "You want me to find a private person to exchange at a high price for RMB?"
"Of course. Can you do it? This is my father's idea. He is too embarrassed to tell me. "Old Feng still does not know that he has been betrayed by his son.
Li Shiqiang heard this. Since it is Danying's father's idea, then he must do it. Anyway, he works at the Post Office and there are many people who ask him if they can get foreign exchange certificates. Although 20,000 Rubles is a lot, he can guarantee that he can exchange it at a high price within 3 to 5 days.
"Ok, leave it to me. I guarantee that I will exchange it at a high price for RMB."
"Ok, my father will give you the money later. This is a test for you."
Danying's father trusted him so much. How can he disappoint his future father-in-law? He immediately patted his chest and promised Feng Yu that he will be able to exchange all the money within 3 days!
Half an hour later, Feng Xingtai went out to roast the car. In this era, there was no antifreeze. If the car was not warmed up, it would not be able to start.
Li Shiqiang went to help, and Feng Yu also volunteered to go downstairs.
"Dad, can I discuss something with you? Can I use the money first? "Feng Yu asked carefully.
Feng Xingtai covered his bag with both hands and looked at Feng Yu warily. "What did you say? You little brat, do you know how to use money? Besides, what do you want the money for? "
"Dad, I heard from my teacher that the people in the city want foreign currency when they go abroad, but the bank can't exchange much. They will look for a private exchange at a high price. Brother Li works at the Post Office and has some connections. You can ask him to exchange 20,000 Rubles, and I guarantee that you will get more than the bank. "Feng Yu once again used his trump card to make money.
Feng Xingtai was greatly shaken by the negotiation in the morning. Unknowingly, he realized that his son had become so capable after going to school. If he can make more money, of course he wants to earn more.
"The Post Office also manages foreign currency exchange? How much can we get? "
"A few thousand RMB more! It's a few thousand RMB!" Feng Yu felt that his tone and expression were the same as when he had just entered the industry in his previous life, trying to convince clients to invest.
"A few thousand? Really so much? Rubles are much more valuable than RMB. Can Xiao Li help us exchange? If his family knows about this, will they think that we are greedy and will have a bad impression of your sister? "Feng Xingtai hesitated. Money is important, but his daughter's happiness is more important.
"Dad, Brother Li offered to help. I had casually mentioned to him about exchanging money at the bank, and he said that exchanging money at the bank will be a loss for us. Furthermore, his relationship with my sister is already settled. Uncle Li also said that he will visit us in two days' time, and he will bring the money over. "
Feng Yu tried to persuade both sides. Feng Xingtai hesitated for a long time and took out two stacks of Rubles wrapped in oiled paper. He asked Feng Yu to pass it to Li Shiqiang.
Feng Yu passed the Rubles to Li Shiqiang: "Brother Li, once this is settled, your relationship with my sister will be settled."
Li Shiqiang's face turned red with excitement. He kept the oiled paper and nodded his head. He is also afraid that Danying's father will change his mind. Where can he find such a beautiful and gentle woman?
When the car is almost cooked, Feng Xingtai took out a rope and set the car on fire. Feng Yu followed Li Shiqiang upstairs to call his sister.
Li Shiqiang's family came downstairs to send them off. They even took a lamb leg and placed it in the back of the car. Li Shiqiang's father forced Feng Yu to take 10 RMB as New Year's money.
After the Feng Family left, Li Shiqiang's father saw the oiled paper in his son's hands.
"What are you holding?"
"This is the money Uncle Feng earned from selling the bears in the city. Rubles, foreign currency. Let me help you find someone to exchange it for RMB. "
"Your Uncle Feng trusts you a lot. Go and exchange it these two days. We can bring it along when we visit him. Oh, how much is it? "Li Shiqiang's father is happy. This is a good thing.
"20,000 RMB!"
"How much?" Li Shiqiang's father asked.
"20,000 RMB."
"20,000 RMB. How big is the bear he hunted? 20,000 RMB is enough to buy our house. People in the farm earn more than us in the city. "Li Shiqiang's father sighed.
"So what? Our son is a city resident and is working in the post office." Li Shiqiang's mother did not look down on the Feng Family, but she still has a sense of superiority.
"It is 20,000 Rubles. Based on the exchange rate, it is around 80,000 RMB." Li Shiqiang added.
This time, Li Shiqiang's mother could not stay calm. Her lips trembled as she asked: "80,000 RMB? How many bears did he kill this time? "
"Mum, mum, bring this home. I will go out for a walk. Before the New Year, there were a few people who wanted to exchange for Rubles. I can go and ask them how much they want. "Li Shiqiang passed the oiled paper to his mother and went to look for people who wanted to exchange.
Li Shiqiang's mother hugged the oiled paper tightly and pulled her husband upstairs. She was afraid that there would be an accident. 80,000 RMB was a huge sum. She had never seen so much money in her life!
Li Shiqiang's position in the post office gave him a lot of convenience. In this era, the post office had many functions. At least, many people who looked for Li Shiqiang felt that Li Shiqiang was capable and could do things that others could not.
For example, there was a vice president of a company who was going to the Soviet Union to study next month. He wanted to buy some Soviet Union specialties for his wife and children, but he only had a small amount of foreign currency. His wife's nephew, who was also Li Shiqiang's classmate, had looked for Li Shiqiang to help him exchange some foreign currency certificates.
After an afternoon of hard work, Li Shiqiang managed to get 8,000 Rubles for 1 Ruble to exchange for 4.5 RMB. Tomorrow, he will bring the money to Li Shiqiang's house to exchange.
Three days later, Li Shiqiang exchanged all 20,000 Rubles for a total of 91,200 RMB. There were two times when the exchange price was slightly higher.
After completing his task, Li Shiqiang was very excited. Not only he had helped his partner's family to earn money, but others also felt that he was capable. But the only thing that troubled him was that there were still people looking for him to exchange Rubles. But he did not have any Rubles left. If only he had more Rubles.
