Chapter 38 Innocence
The next day, it was sunny and the sky was bright blue.

Zhang Yunqi came to the classroom early to attend Chinese class.

The Chinese teacher of Class 168 is named Wang. He is an experienced teacher at the No. Middle School in the city and a graduate of the prestigious Sun Yat-sen University. He is considered a well-known figure. Whether he is on the podium or in front of the toilet bowl, he always looks very confident.

Zhang Yunqi felt that Mr. Wang's lectures were indeed lively and interesting. He spoke with a thick Jiangchuan accent and had two cynical moustaches. He never read from a textbook in a serious manner. He always acted like a boss and gave instructions and wrote inspiring articles in the classroom, often making the group of little idiots in Class 168 intoxicated.

However, halfway through this exciting and horizon-broadening class, Zhang Yunqi suddenly heard someone calling him outside the classroom. He turned around and saw it was Wang Guibing.

Zhang Yunqi immediately stood up and asked for leave from Teacher Wang, saying that someone from home had come. Teacher Wang waved his hand and told Zhang Yunqi to get out. He thought he taught well and never cared about students being late or leaving early. He looked like he had the overall situation under control.

Zhang Yunqi left the classroom and found a pavilion outside the school with Wang Guibing to chat. When Zhang Yunqi asked him if he still gambled recently, he waved his hand and said, "No, I don't gamble much."

Zhang Yunqi just listened to this kind of talk. He was not interested in Wang Guibing's personal life. He said, "I am going to buy 800 handheld computers this time. I want to ask you to join me. Are you interested?"

"How can we do it together?"

"You invest 10 yuan, I'll give you 11500 yuan, and I'll give you 800% dividend." Zhang Yunqi actually had 12000 yuan, and 500 handheld devices would cost yuan. He could make up the yuan hole by borrowing, but as a human being, one has to be honest. Without the channel provided by Wang Guibing, he would not be able to do this business.

Of course, he had another deeper idea in his mind. It was not feasible to do business alone. When the business became bigger in the future, he would not be able to do things like going to the market to purchase goods by himself. Now he wanted to bring Wang Guibing into the business. Once Wang Guibing became familiar with the ways of this business, he would be able to do a lot of things for him.

Wang Guibing obviously had a lot of thoughts in mind, so he didn't agree directly. After thinking for a while, he asked, "How much is the net profit of a handheld computer now?"

Zhang Yunqi said: "25 to 30 yuan. A 10% share means you can earn 2.5 to 3 yuan for every handheld device sold. You don't have to worry about the sales. All you have to do is go to Shenzhen to purchase the goods, and then wait for me to sell the handheld devices and collect the money."

Wang Guibing was quite tempted.

In fact, he knew that this business was a sure win.

He made 2.5 to 3 yuan per unit, so 800 units would make more than 800 yuan, which was more than double the profit. He didn't have to worry about the most troublesome sales issues. He just brought the goods and waited for the money. What kind of business could be better than this? But he also had his own concerns, and asked Zhang Yunqi: "How long will it take to sell all handheld game consoles?"

Zhang Yunqi said, "About two or three months. It depends on the sales of the handheld game console. If you are in a hurry by then, I can give you dividends in advance."

Wang Guibing was a little embarrassed and said, "It's not that I'm anxious, Xiao Zhang. I know you're a capable person and you're really kind to me. I'm not afraid to follow you, but I only have a little over a thousand yuan in my pocket, which is the remaining amount of the more than two thousand yuan you gave me before. How about this, you wait for a while, I'll go get some money to join us."

"Don't borrow from loan sharks."

"No way, I have a legitimate way to get money."

Wang Guibing stood up, waved his hand, and left in a hurry.

Zhang Yunqi returned to the classroom to continue his class. After lunch, he received another call from Wang Guibing in the boys' dormitory. He ran to the school gate to meet Wang Guibing. Wang Guibing stuffed two thousand yuan into his pocket. Zhang Yunqi asked Wang Guibing how he got the money.
Wang Guibing smiled and said that he had 1,400 yuan in his pocket and had won some money playing cards recently. In addition, the cannery still owed him more than 800 yuan in severance pay, which had been delayed for more than half a year. This morning he ran to the cannery director's office and made a big scene, and demanded the severance pay.

Zhang Yunqi suddenly thought of Li Yufei. He knew that Li Yufei's father was the director of a canning factory. Of course, this had nothing to do with him. He asked Wang Guibing, "Do you have the phone number of Shenglong Electronics Sales Department? Not Liu Zhiqiang's." "Yes, but we're not looking for Liu Zhiqiang this time?"

"No need to look for it, we will get it directly from the factory." It only costs 15 yuan to get the goods from the factory, but it costs 20 yuan to get the goods from Liu Zhiqiang, which means he takes a 5 yuan kickback for each unit. If he buys 800 units, it will cost 4000 yuan. Damn, 4000 yuan can be used for prostitution, and you can have sex with the same female students for a whole year without repeating it.

"Okay, I'll give you the contact number of Shenglong Electronics' sales department." Wang Guibing borrowed a piece of paper and a pen from the nearby store, wrote down a string of numbers and handed it to Zhang Yunqi. Zhang Yunqi asked him to go back and prepare. He would pick up the goods in Shenzhen tomorrow, and the payment would be directly transferred to Shenglong Electronics' company account.

Wang Guibing was a good man, tall and strong, and good at fighting, but he had a bad habit of gambling. He needed 12000 yuan to pay for the goods he was buying in Shenzhen. Zhang Yunqi was not so naive as to give tens of thousands of yuan to a gambler.

After Wang Guibing left, Zhang Yunqi ran to a public telephone booth on the street and called Shenglong Electronics Sales Department. After the call was connected, the customer service representative on the other end said kindly: "Hello, this is Shenglong Electronics Sales Department, I am..."

Zhang Yunqi interrupted her directly: "I plan to buy a batch of Tetris handheld games from Shenglong Electronics, the one priced at 15 yuan."

When he heard that it was a purchasing customer, the other party's tone became more friendly: "May I ask your name? Where are you from? How many handheld computers do you plan to purchase?"

"My surname is Zhang, I'm from Jiangchuan City, 800 units."

"So are you going to wire the money or come here in person?"

"money transfer."

“When will you remit the money?”

"Give me your company's account number and I'll transfer the money to it later. It should be in your company's account within three days."

Although remittances in the 1991s were not as convenient and fast as in later generations, the central bank took the lead in establishing the financial satellite communications network and the national electronic interbank system in . Most of the previous subpoenas and vouchers are no longer in paper form, but are sent thousands of miles away via an encrypted telegram.

Of course, in 92, most banks had not yet built internal networking systems, but large state-owned banks such as the Bank of China and the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China already had this remittance function, which shortened the time for funds to be in transit from more than a week to one or two days, greatly reducing the amount of funds in transit each day.

Zhang Yunqi said that the three-day payment was just for insurance, and he estimated that two days would be enough. He held the phone and said, "Also, one of my subordinates will go to Shenzhen to pick up the goods tomorrow. His name is Wang Guibing. He will contact your sales department at that time. You can contact him and give him the goods if it is correct."

The employee from Shenglong Electronics' sales department on the other end of the phone said, "OK, OK, please wait."

After a while, she reported Shenglong Electronics' remittance account to Zhang Yunqi. The two compared the information again. After Zhang Yunqi confirmed that there were no omissions, he hung up the phone and went to the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China to remit the money.
