Zhao Peng knew that Hu Li was not looking at him, but he still shook his head. His current problem was not something that could be solved with 500 yuan. He needed at least 50,000 yuan.

In later generations, it would be relatively easy to raise 50,000 yuan, but now it is 1998, when 50,000 yuan can buy a house, who would be willing to spend so much money for no reason.

There won't be anyone.

Zhao Peng also thought about going to the bank for a loan, but he had nothing to mortgage. Banks always lend money to people who already have money. People who have no money, especially at this time, want to borrow something from the bank.

A little money is harder than reaching the sky.

He could only conclude that only money can make money.

Well, since we can't seize this opportunity, we can only put it aside for the time being and conquer the next goal first. Although that goal also requires money, it is not too much, and it can recover a good income before the end of the year.

"I want to ask you something." Hu Li saw that it was already getting late, put away her homework, jumped to the edge of the bed and sat down, leaning over to look at Zhao Peng.

Zhao Peng looked at Hu Li's gentle eyes and suddenly reached out and flicked her forehead gently.

"Silly girl, I know, but how can I keep using your money? I came to this world just to be able to..."

Zhao Peng wanted to say that it was just to grow old with you and give you a better and happier life. But he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was not enough, so he changed the topic, "Just to be invincible in this world!"

"puff!"

Hu Li pursed her lips and smiled, "Zhao Peng, just blow it."

…

Half a month passed by in a blink of an eye. After repeated efforts, Zhao Peng now had a total of about 8,000 yuan in cash, including the deposits from the two egg sellers.

Within this half month, after some ideological struggle, my father wanted to try tea eggs.

Zhao Peng suggested that he try his hand at a small test and not cook too many eggs at first. If the taste is not very good, he can continue to adjust.

At the first market, Zhao Zhengzheng just carried two buckets on his bicycle, heated them with a small stove, and went to the market.

As a result, the eggs were sold out within two hours of being sold.

Rural markets are held in waves, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Although there are people between the two waves, there are relatively fewer people.

This is because if farmers have to work in the fields in the morning, they will definitely come back around 10 o'clock. After dinner, they will go to the market, which will naturally be around 13 o'clock in the afternoon. If they do not go to the fields to work in the morning, they will choose to come to the market early.

, go home early after buying enough things, and go to work in the fields in the afternoon.

When Zhao Zhengzheng went there, he happened to catch up with the morning market at 8 or 9 o'clock. There was a lot of traffic. The bucket of tea eggs was opened, and the fragrance could be smelled from a distance, which made people want to try it.

In less than 2 hours, he sold 200 tea eggs, priced at 1 yuan each. The cost price of the eggs was 0.15 yuan each, plus 5 cents for various seasonings, the total cost would not exceed 20 cents.

He earned 160 yuan.

When he was counting the money at the stall, Zhao Zhengzheng's hands were shaking. This happened to be his wages for 10 days on the construction site. Unexpectedly, he earned it back in less than 2 hours.

He couldn't help but regret a little, why he didn't listen to his son earlier. If he had started when his son first made the suggestion, he would not have made thousands of dollars in half a month now. This was based on the premise of not increasing the amount.

It seems that I need to listen to that guy's advice more in the future, reading may still be useful.

His recognition of Zhao Peng increased even more.

With successful experience, Zhao Zhengzheng made a large stove at home, bought a big pot, and started working hard.

At the second market, he made 500 tea eggs and they were all sold out by 3 p.m.

Zhao Peng and his father's money are calculated separately. This is the result of discussion between him and his father, because the two of them are doing different businesses. If the money is put together, it is inconvenient to calculate profits.

It's just that Zhao Peng provided his father's eggs, which was equivalent to taking part of Zhao Peng's profits away from his father. Zhao Peng found that his father had become much more lively since he had a way to make money, and he often hummed Xiao Qin opera while singing.

While working, my mother would help. The two of them were talking and laughing, and they were quite harmonious.

Zhao Zhengzheng earned 560 yuan from the two markets. He had already seen new hope in life. After Zhao Peng solved this matter, his status in his father's heart improved a lot, and he began to plan the second big thing.

It's April?, the time when many crops are sown. Zhao Peng's father is planning to plant more than three acres of land at home into millet, just in time to harvest wheat again in the fall.

However, he was strongly opposed by Zhao Peng, who suggested that he grow green onions.

This year, many green onions from Shandong Province were unable to be supplied to other provinces, which indirectly caused a rare shortage of green onions in Qingcheng, which was seriously insufficient.

People in Qingcheng like to eat onions very much. They make a cold dish called "Three Kings" almost every morning, which is actually chili, green onions and white radish cut into shreds. People in Qingcheng eat no more onions than people in Shandong.

There was little, so this year, when green onions from other places did not enter Qingcheng, the lives of people in Qingcheng became very unhappy.

Of course there are green onions locally, but most families only grow two or three rows of green onions, which is enough for their own consumption. There is not much that can be taken away. Rural people can still eat their own food if they have land, but people in the city can only grow it.

You can buy onions at high prices.

At that time, the price of green onions increased from the usual price of more than 1 yuan to a maximum of more than 7 yuan, and the supply was still in short supply.

My father originally thought that farmers could not be called farmers if they did not grow food, but he could not bear Zhao Peng's earnest persuasion, and finally agreed to plant all the more than three acres of land with green onions, and it was not ordinary planting, but with plastic film and corn.

Same as peanuts. This can moisturize the green onions very well and is conducive to the growth of green onions.

The growth cycle of green onions is very short. It only takes six or seven months to catch up with the high price period of green onions.

Zhao Peng calculated that one acre of green onions can produce up to 8,000 kilograms, so three acres would be about 25,000 kilograms. If you earn 5 yuan per kilogram, you can earn hundreds of thousands.

In fact, in my previous life, I was selling green onions in a vegetable greenhouse and made hundreds of thousands a year.

This is an almost guaranteed income, but Zhao Peng's ambition is not limited to his own three-acre land. He has been eyeing the fifty acres of wasteland near the ditch on his team.

In 1998, each production team in the village had some private land, which was originally intended to be allocated to people without land. However, if there were fewer people and more land, some land that was not in a good location would be left vacant.

This is the case with the land beside the ditch.

Loess Gao was originally a ravine. Less than a kilometer away from Zhao Peng's home, there was a large ditch several hundred meters wide. Both sides of the ditch belonged to two townships.

Close to Zhao Peng's house, there are fifty acres of land beside the ditch. Because there are no homes nearby and there is insufficient water beside the ditch, it cannot be allocated, and it has gradually become a wasteland covered with weeds.
