Chapter 004 Inspiration
Until he returned to Qianyu Town, Chen Du still thought about the intentional or unintentional kind reminder in his mind.
"Xiao Du, stop thinking about it, ride a bike home." Chen Dakang glanced at a familiar figure on the corner of the street from afar, and seriously told his son, "Remember, don't let your mother know when you go home."
When he returned home, Yu Jinfeng naturally complained to his son, and Chen Du laughed and accepted it all.
During dinner, Chen Kedae brought a small chair, stood up and took off the red cloth with her own hands, and tried hard to unbutton the TV. Then she came back and sat on the raised children's chair facing the TV, and was eating while waiting to watch her favorite "Kuajaguaro".
"Drinking Wahaha, eating will be delicious!" Before the show started, a child's song came from the TV, followed by this advertising slogan.
Chen Du was a little shocked. He really didn't expect Wahaha to go to CCTV to advertise at this time.
Chen Kedai quickly shouted like a coquettish act: "Mom, my Wahaha."
"Here you come." Yu Jinfeng took out a bottle from the paper box, grinded it with a grinding wheel, broke the tip apart, inserted a straw, and handed it to her daughter who was eager to see it.
Chen Du said, "Mom, don't buy this again in the future."
Yu Jinfeng looked at him nervously: "Is there something bad inside?"
"Anyway, it is best for children to eat less of this kind of thing. Eat more vegetables, fruits, milk and staple foods such as natural foods."
Yu Jinfeng defended: "It is said on TV that it is purely natural, not only promotes appetite, but also improves immunity."
"Listen to me, that's right." Chen Du curled his lips and stopped slandering the products of the richest man who started. Nowadays, everyone has done this.
It’s a pity that a generation has been more or less harmed by these overwhelming and ubiquitous health products.
Wahaha, Sanzhu, Hongtao K, Life No. 1, Yansheng Baobao Liquid, he is good, I am good, Chinese bie (three tones) essence... and the famous brain idiot of the game maniac Mr. Shi Dongshan, said it wrong, Naobaijin...
There are three new mountains waiting for them in the future, and it is really not easy for this generation to live until old age.
"Xiao Dai, if you don't drink this in the future, I'll order you milk, okay?" He pinched his sister's little nose.
"I heard that the milk is white. After drinking it, the skin is white, the soap will become whiter, and it will become whiter after washing it." Chen Kedae clapped her hands and smiled.
Chen Du asked curiously: "Where did you hear this song?"
"It's on the TV." Chen Kedae pointed at the TV, "It's going to happen later."
Sure enough, after the end of "Kuajaguaro", a small advertisement appeared, which was from a children's soap factory in Beijing.
"Dad, I have an idea!" Chen Du slapped the table, scared Chen Kedae and looked at his brother aggrievedly.
"Xiao Dai is not afraid, it's not meant to you." Chen Du hurriedly coaxed her.
"This young man is fussing, come outside to talk." Chen Dakang said with a smile, got up and walked outside the house, lit a Bailiqun, and took a big mouthful of leisurely.
Chen Du, who came out, said depressedly: "Dad, I don't seem to be excited at all."
"Anyway, now that you say something earth-shaking, I'm mentally prepared." Chen Dakang vomited a smoke ring and looked at his son with appreciation, "You are really an adult. Dad is very pleased. He was even happier than when he was selected as a substitute teacher in Gengshu Primary School in 1974."
1974 was the happiest year in Chen Dakang's life.
Just after New Year's Day that year, Chen Dakang, who had a first-year junior high school education, was a worker carrying a grey sand bucket on a construction site in the outside town. At that time, the village party secretary rode for more than ten kilometers under the cold wind and called him back to serve as a substitute teacher at Gengdu Primary School, who had just resumed teaching.
It was also shortly after being a substitute teacher that Yu Jinfeng, who was just 20 years old, ran over from the other side of Taihu Lake with her household registration book and letter of introduction, and married him without hesitation. The two met during the Taihu Lake Silting Battle in 1973.
At the end of that year, the eldest son was born. Chen Dakang read a book of the family's "Book of Rites" and found the paragraph "Learn from learning, interrogating, thinking carefully, distinguishing, and practicing hard". He named it Duzhi. Later, when he officially settled in the household registration, he felt that Duzhi sounded a bit feudal, so he changed it to a single name.
As night fell, a hint of hot evening breeze blew on his face. It was warm, and the father and son stood in the night broken by the dim lights in the house, facing the dark mountains, talking happily.
"Secretary Hu asked us to find a daily chemical factory to sell mint oil, so we might as well do it ourselves!"
"What are you doing?"
“Make soap, mint soap.”
"Can you do it?"
"Isn't there an old soap factory in the town that has been discontinued? We will take it over and find a few old workers who are reliable in people and technology. We will spend a few days researching and mixing peppermint oil and adding some flavors. It shouldn't be a big problem."
"Can you sell it?"
"On this hot day, don't take a bath with mint soap too cool. It's sure that people who have used it want to use it."
"How do you know?"
"I... read this in the book." Chen Du couldn't say that your son had a little lover in his previous life, and he liked the bourgeois mood. He bought a bunch of Taobao ingredients at home and made soaps such as mint, roses, olives, etc. every day. Every time he didn't try a few new products, he wouldn't have sex.
"...Okay, just do it! I'll go to Ge Wen to ask about the situation tomorrow."
"How much money does the family still have?"
"It's a few hundred yuan, your mother has saved it. Didn't they promise to leave me 10,000 yuan as working capital today?"
"That soap factory must be bought with money, and it must be bought with normal market prices. The money is not enough." Chen Du frowned. He knew this factory, and it seemed that the money was definitely not enough.
"That broken factory is not worth much money, right? If it really doesn't work, I'll find a way to ask your two uncles to borrow money."
Chen Du curled his lips: "Buying a factory requires money, making soap requires investment, and subsequent packaging and sales cost all. How much can they borrow?"
"Then I'd better ask Ge Wen first. If he guaranteed it, he should be able to borrow another loan from the credit union."
"For the sake of 300,000, he will definitely be willing to guarantee it. You should borrow it hard, and the liquidity required by the factory in the future will be very worrying."
"We have to force him to do this?"
"Dad, he initiated the planting of mint. You built this refinery under his push. If you really can't give these 300,000 yuan, the farmers can go back to heaven. Even if you put the blame on you and put you in jail, he will still be scolded behind his back. You don't need to think about getting promoted within a few years. He is not knocked off. It's his background."
"He started from the point of his career to increase the income of the people. It would be difficult for him to do such a thing. Don't hold too much grudge in your heart."
"I don't care about your friendship. You can borrow too much. The soap factory doesn't have to suppress the price too much. You must buy the land together." Chen Du repeatedly cared about his father's fair trade. This was a plan for the future. He was afraid that this history would be revealed in the future and there would be no problem in the root of this first pot of gold.
"Don't worry, this is your own factory, your dad is not that confused."
"Then I'll wait for the result of your talk tomorrow. I'll go back to bed."
"Xiao Du..."
"Dad, there's something else?"
"Don't relax in the senior year and get into a good university."
"Oh, I know."
"Today in the town, what I worry about the most is not you. You have been strong since childhood. I believe you can survive. What I worry about is your mother and Xiao Dai... Now the family can have a happy meal together again. Dad, thank you."
"Who can distinguish between us?"
