Chapter 12 Dead Man's Money
After Men San'er left, Nan Yi answered Liu Zhen's question just now.
"The main purpose of selling college entrance examination guides is to create a relatively level playing field for unprepared educated youths; of course, I also want to make some money."
As Nanyi said, the topic suddenly changed again, "However, as long as you remember the first half of the sentence, you will pretend that you haven't heard the second half. Alas, my sense of justice has no place to rest!"
"???"
Liu Zhen's mind was full of confusion. Since she fainted, she found out why her brother was running further and further in the evil direction?
Hey, never mind, anyway, my brother is very good to me.
Liu Zhen struggled for a few seconds, and then continued to attack the braised pork. She only picked fatty meat to eat.
The fat and greasy fills the entire mouth, and the greasy taste hits the taste buds, so happy!
After dinner, Nan Yi ran to Xian Yaodong's place.
"Uncle Xian, the field has been idled, and the members have to go out to do side jobs. I have a job there, can you help me find some reliable members to do it together?"
"What kind of work will you have there?"
"Print, print the guidebook for the college entrance examination."
Xian Yaodong lowered his voice and said, "You don't want to live anymore, this is speculation."
"It's not so exaggerated. Every link is in the name of the unit. On the surface, there is no problem at all. Only the final sale link may cause trouble. But, Uncle Xian, it is like this. Next month, a thief will come to Wenchangwei , Our college entrance examination guidelines will be stolen.
The school that entrusted printing to us sees that we farmers are pitiful, so we won't let us pay. When we heard that we didn't need to pay, we didn't take this matter seriously.
As long as no one is targeted for investigation, nothing will happen. Even if someone targeted them, caught a thief and took the stolen goods, and didn't catch them on the spot, at most they would criticize and educate them.
But here, we are only developing sideline business, and we are farmers who don’t know a lot of Chinese characters and have only attended literacy classes. "
"You, Shanzi, you have a set of tricks." Xian Yaodong scolded with a smile: "Tell me, how do you calculate it?"
"One piece for me, one piece for you, and one piece for the brigade."
"Where's Ben?"
"I'm already out here."
"Where did you get the money?"
"There are people behind me."
"Is it reliable?"
"reliable."
"I told you, something really happened, Wen Changwei and I will take it out, and the board will hit you on the head."
"Can."
"Then do it."
"good."
...
two days later
Xian Yaodong was in charge of sailing the boat, and Nanyi was doing the preparations there.
Before, the two of them had already figured out what to do, and today was the day they started working in Shenfeng Bay.
"Nanyi, we've arrived. This is the only area where the most people have sunk." Xian Yaodong stopped the boat and said when the boat reached an area.
"Okay, Uncle Xian, you wait on the boat, if I shake the rope, you will pull me up."
"Okay, be careful, if you don't want to catch it, forget it, your life is the most important thing." Xian Yaodong said worriedly.
"Don't worry, Uncle Xian, I'm sure."
Nan Yi put on the periscope and diving boots on himself, leaned back and plunged into the water.
The water in Shenfeng Bay is not deep, the deepest point is only a few meters, and there is still a trench. The location where Nanyi dives is only a little over five meters.
However, the waves here are not small, and there are torrents and undercurrents below. No wonder most of those who fled here cannot persist.
After a person drowns, they will sink first, and after a period of time, the microorganisms in the body will ferment, and the person will rise again. And the sea water here is flowing, and there are not many carrion corpses that Nan Yi saw below.
He didn't care about the naked corpses, but looked for traces of plastic sheeting and oilcloth in the sand beside him.
People who escaped would basically wrap their valuables in waterproof tarpaulin plastic sheets and tie them to their bodies with ropes. After a long time, the rope has long been rotten, and it is unlikely that the things are still on the side.
Nanyi groped for a long time, finally found a plastic wrap, and opened it happily... I went there, only a few rotten clothes, and a few Hong Kong dollars that had been soaked.
Bad start!
With a slander, he threw the package away and continued to grope.
Almost three hours.
At this time, Xian Yaodong was waiting anxiously on the boat.
Every few minutes, he would listen to the windpipe he held in his hand to see if he could hear the sound of breathing out.
Fortunately, he could hear the sound every time, which made his heart that jumped into his throat be pressed down again.
"It's been three hours, why hasn't this bad boy come up, I'm really anxious to death."
Snapped!
A fish suddenly hit Xian Yaodong's face, his body became unstable and he almost fell into the sea.
"Uncle Xian, how is it? Is this fish fresh enough?"
"Bah, bah, bah..." Xian Yaodong spat hard, his mouth was open just now, and the dead fish tail slapped his mouth.
"I said Nanyi, don't tease your Uncle Xian, come up quickly, the sea is cold, come up and drink some ginger soup to keep you warm."
Nan Yi lay on the side of the boat, using his hands and feet together, he climbed onto the boat.
Clap... bang!
Nan Yi untied the diving bag from his waist and threw it at Xian Yaodong's feet.
"Uncle Xian, you can see for yourself."
Xian Yaodong squatted down hastily, untied the tie rope on the top of the diving bag, pinched it at the bottom of the bag, shook it twice, ding dong, ding dong, everything in the bag fell out.
"Hey, this harvest is not small, 15 small yellow croakers, 30 Yuan Datou, hey... Nanyi, which country's money is this, I haven't seen it before, and there is a woman's head on it."
Xian Yaodong unwrapped a well-wrapped square of oilcloth and took out the coins inside.
"British pound, according to our exchange rate, one piece is worth more than two yuan in RMB, but it can be exchanged for more than seventeen Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong."
"Don't mention our exchange rate, just to fool people. Bah... 1, 10, 25, 35... 50... 115. Nanyi, let's send it. Here are 115 sheets of the British pound you mentioned, with a denomination of 10 yuan Bar?"
Nanyi took a pound from Xian Yaodong and looked it over carefully. It was issued in 1963. The pounds issued in the 1960s could flow into the country, and the amount was so large. It seems that the poor man who died had a very good family thick.
"Don't get too excited. This money stopped circulating four years ago. It's a little troublesome to change it. You have to go to the Eagle Countryman's bank to change it."
"Trouble is fine, as long as it can be exchanged for money."
Xian Yaodong said it doesn't matter, and continued to take stock of Nanyi's harvest.
"Nanyi, it's been issued. There are 1,150 pounds, 714 US dollars, 4,500 Hong Kong dollars, and more than 2,000 yuan in banknotes, 15 small yellow croakers, and 30 Yuan Datou." Xian Yaodong shouted excitedly after counting.
"Uncle Xian, where is this? There are still a lot below. I came up first because I was afraid that you would be worried. I will go down again in a while, and bring up the ones I have already looked forward to."
"Don't rush, don't rush, take a break and drink ginger soup to warm your body."
"Um."
Nan Yi rested for a while, then went down again, Xian Yaodong drove the boat back to the shore, stuffed the diving bag into a basket, and the two walked towards Xian Yaodong's house in hiding.
"Nanyi, make it clear. There is no British pound on the second trip, but there are 1043 US dollars, 5425 Hong Kong dollars, 10 small yellow croakers, and 2 large yellow croakers, RMB 1900.
Our total harvest: GBP 1150, USD 1757, HKD 9925, small yellow croaker 25, large yellow croaker 2, RMB 3972.32, a total of 37 Yuan Datou. "
Xian Yaodong rubbed his hands, looked straight at the things on the table, "How do we divide?"
Nan Yi thought for a while and said, "Send the pound and the big yellow croaker to the opposite side, and exchange them for Hong Kong dollars directly, and we will split the rest in half."
"Yuan Datou is also divided?"
"Also, but Yuan Datou is worthless now, let's put it away for now. In the future, we will decide whether to sell it or not when the price rises."
"OK."
Xian Yaodong divided the things into two, and pushed one to Nan Yi, "This is yours, Yuan Datou, you share one more."
Nan Yi took it, counted 1800 directly from the RMB, and pushed it back to Xian Yaodong.
"Uncle Xian, this is the end of the house. I'll let you go first. Don't hand it over to the brigade all at once. Pay it slowly month by month. Just say it was money sent from my family."
"Yes, I don't know about this." Xian Yaodong happily lit a cigarette for Nanyi, "It will take some time to get the money in pounds and gold. Do you want Hong Kong dollars or RMB?"
"Fifty-five, half Hong Kong dollars, half RMB."
"Let me say it first. I will ask someone to exchange it. Others will definitely charge an intermediary fee. It may be five points to ten points."
Nan Yi nodded, "No problem, Uncle Xian, help me get some pork, I want a front foot, and get me two pairs of kidneys, I'll make soup for Zhen'er."
"It's easy to say, do you want pig whips and pig tails? These are good things that the pig killer has kept privately."
"Forget about the whip, Uncle Xian, you can keep it for yourself, and get me two pig tails."
"Success, I'll bring it back for you tomorrow afternoon."
"How much?"
"If you don't have any money, treat it as Uncle Xian's invitation to you. I'll ask for it next time, and I'll mention the money."
"Alright, thank you, Uncle Xian. Tomorrow, I will rest for a day to recover my energy. There are still a few places I am looking forward to. I saw a piece of emerald. I am not in a hurry to fish it. The day after tomorrow, if the weather is good, we will go to the Go get it."
"Success, you can do the planning, and I will do the logistics for you."
Going into the sea to fish for gold, Nan Yi didn't keep anything private, he got as much as he got, and he didn't deceive Xian Yaodong by pretending that he didn't know how much.
This is not Nanyi's style of doing things.
If he wants to take advantage of his partner, he will take advantage of it in the open and use his strong IQ to crush the other party, instead of relying on such dishonesty and petty theft.
...
Time passed slowly in the plain.
After that, Nan Yi and Xian Yaodong went to the sea several times, and the last time, the harvest was only a few hundred yuan.
The two summed up and announced the end of this business.
One day, watching a few people in the water struggle to swim to the other side from the shore, and watching a few of them sink, Nanyi lit a credit lighter that he found from the bottom of the sea.
"Don't worry, when there is a chance, I will help you find your daughter and give her a piece of glory and wealth."
In the oiled paper bag where this letter is located, there is the biggest harvest that Nanyi brought back from the bottom of the sea. He thought that if he used other people's money, of course he had to fulfill his last wish.
Taking advantage of the night, I burned some ingots and tinfoil to comfort the souls of the dead in Shenfeng Bay.
Taking out the harp from his trouser pocket, facing the sea breeze, Nan Yi faintly played the song "Farewell".
Outside the long pavilion, beside the ancient road, there are green grass and green sky...
