Chapter 23
"Fool" Lu Jin put the treasury bills he just received into his bag and left the bank.
She didn't know that after she left, many customers in the bank were still discussing her, that something was unreliable when she heard it, and it was really a fool to buy it.
Unexpectedly, I saw two fools all at once. Of course, the most foolish of them was Lu Jin. Not only did she buy the bank's bonds, she also took the two hundred from others!
Isn't that throwing money in the water? Sooner or later there will be a day when she will cry! Everyone shook their heads and thought.
Lu Jin walked out of the bank with a bag full of treasury bills. Of course, she didn't just throw the money into the water to play with her kindness. Because the treasury bills had just been issued, the government was also testing them, so the first batch of treasury bills was the shortest term. The kind that only has three months and has a short turnaround time is actually very suitable for prudent investments.
But at this time, people don't know. First, they have never been exposed to any investment methods. Second, everyone's family is not rich. Who dares to bet on this?
From the uncle just now, she can also see that most people still don't agree with this bond. There are definitely not a few cases like the uncle's family. In addition, there are many people who are forced to buy by the unit, so there should be a lot of these people. Now, she still has a little money left, why don't she take this opportunity to make a small sum of money?
She counted the money on her body, and there was less than 2,000 left. If she subscribed at the bank, she could only buy it at the original price, but if it was privately traded, those who held treasury bills would sell them as soon as possible, even if they gave a discount. very willing.
With her movement just now, people who have ideas must be moving soon. Today, there are so many people in the bank. She doesn't believe that all of them are here to do business. The spending is not enough, how can there be so much spare money to deposit in the bank?
Because of this thought, she walked extra slowly. Sure enough, within two minutes, someone called her from behind.
"Wait little girl!"
Behind him, several men and women trotted to follow, as if they were afraid that she would run away. Seeing that she was still there, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Little girl, do you still accept that coupon?"
"I wanted to accept it, but I didn't. So much money." Lu Jin said with a surprised expression.
"We have it too. It's the same as the one from the bank. The unit asked us to buy it. If you want it, we'll give it to you at a 20% discount. It's much cheaper than buying it at the bank!" They said anxiously.
Lu Jin said with a look of embarrassment: "But I really don't have so much money, and you have a lot of people. If I want him and don't want yours, that's not good."
"Little girl, you want mine, mine is less. It doesn't cost much."
"Why do you want mine? I'll give you a 30% discount. I'll give you a 30% discount."
"Then I'll give you a 30% discount!"
... .
They quarreled and quarreled, and finally ran into a bad guy, and no one wanted to let it go, otherwise the money would really become a piece of white paper and rot at home, and it would be good to get back some money.
She just wanted to lower the price a little bit, and she didn't want them to quarrel on the street like this, so she quickly said, "Everyone, stop arguing, I have all you have!"
"Really?" As soon as she heard her words , the crowd suddenly quieted down, and turned to look at Lu Jin in surprise: "You want it all?"
She nodded and said, "I really can't bear to see everyone arguing over this matter. Fate, I can accept it all, but everyone knows that I have insufficient funds, so I can only give you a 30% discount. If you want, we will pay the money and the coupons."
"Yes!" Everyone nodded hurriedly. It is a surprise for them that people are willing to accept it, how can they dare to say more?
In this way, Lu Jin spent all his money and got back a bunch of bonds. Someone asked her where she lived, and asked her if she could still collect it tomorrow. .
Although Lu Jin told them that she was staying at the guest house, she also solemnly said that she did not have that much principal to buy other treasury bills.
Although those people nodded and said a few words in their mouths, but by looking at them, they knew that they didn't pay much attention to them.
But he said that after Xie Yi separated from Lu Jin, after thinking about it, he went back to the tax bureau. At this time, it was actually lunch break, but because there was too much work, many people were working overtime. Surprised: "Why did you come back? Didn't you finish your work today?"
"Anyway, I have nothing to do, I have done the rest of the work well, I will go back soon after I finish it." Xie Yi said lazily.
What he said really made others feel sour and hated. Why is the gap between people so big these days?
The immersed Xie Yi is even more efficient. In one afternoon, he has finished the work for the next two days. If this goes on, he will be able to complete all the tasks of this business trip tomorrow, and he will be able to go back the day after tomorrow.
He was thinking about whether he should go to the leader here to say goodbye tomorrow, and when he saw that the leader had walked over to him, he warmly greeted him, what did he feel comfortable with here, and how was their environment here? Ah...
"Very good, leader, everyone takes good care of me." Xie Yi replied.
"Then do you want to stay?"
Every year they borrow a lot of people from all over the country to help. In fact, the leaders can't remember who is who, but Xie Yi caused a sensation on the first day he came. It was because of his ability. It's stronger, even more powerful than the veterans who have worked here for decades. Even the leaders who haven't paid much attention to it have heard about it.
In the afternoon, he made a special observation and found that this young man was indeed outstanding. He couldn't help but love his talents and wanted to keep people. Originally, he was full of confidence. okay?
People who have seen the prosperity of big cities are generally attracted, so the leaders are still very confident about keeping Xie Yi.
Before it was replaced, he would really be tempted, but now he refused without even thinking about it.
"Why?" The leader was surprised.
"Because people have concerns, they can't go too far." Xie Yi said, although that person was not enlightened and young, he was willing to wait.
Seeing that it was almost time, he was afraid that Lu Jin would wait for him, so he said hello and went back first.
As soon as Lu Jin returned to the guest house, he walked into the corridor when he saw Xie Yi next to him open the door immediately and greeted her, "You're back?"
"Well, how did you know it was me?" Lu Jin looked a little surprised. Asked him, she didn't speak at all when she came back!
Xie Yi smiled and didn't speak. In fact, it was because every time there were footsteps in the corridor, he would open the door to take a look.
"Have you eaten? I bought some snacks. Would you like to try them? There are sugar-fried chestnuts, fried buns, xiaolongbao, and various cakes..." Xie Yi counted them all over. quite tempting her.
Lu Jin really took the bait. The dishes here are on the sweet side, but the dim sum is delicious. I didn't enjoy it at all yesterday. Now that I heard Xie Yi bought so much food, she swallowed her saliva unconsciously. His eyes lit up and he said, "Then I'm welcome."
Xie Yi opened the door to let her in. After she came in, he opened the door wide, took out all the food, and said, "This is what I just went to buy. , I remember you liked eating it last night."
"I didn't expect you to be so careful." Tang-fried chestnuts, xiaolongbao and raw fried dumplings were still steaming, and the sight of them made people's index fingers move, and she ran around for a while. In the afternoon, I was really hungry, so I ate all the food on the table.
"Thank you." After she finished eating, she sat there to eliminate the food before talking about today's events, "By the way, I spent all the money."
"What did you buy?" Xie Yi asked in surprise , she really doesn't look like a person who spends a lot of money, that's several thousand yuan, and it's all spent so quickly?
Lu Jin said, "I subscribed all my money for treasury bills."
"Treasury bills?" Xie Yi repeated, but he really didn't expect Lu Jin to buy this.
"Yes, don't you look surprised?" She was ready to be questioned, how could she expect him to be so calm, as if he hadn't heard anything.
"To be honest, I'm still a little surprised. How do you know that the country has issued treasury bills? As far as I know, the country has stopped issuing treasury bills for more than 30 years." Xie Yi asked curiously.
"It's also a coincidence." Lu Jin told him everything that happened in the afternoon.
After listening to what Lu Jin said, he nodded in agreement and said, "This is indeed a safe investment method." And it was probably the first time to restore bonds, so the profits looked good.
"Yes, the period of this batch of treasury bills is only three months. I think it is quite cost-effective, so I accept them all." Except this time, the issued treasury bills are basically five to ten years, and the period is relatively long. .
Xie Yi was not worried about money, just worried that her private transaction would be at a loss, and asked, "Is it alright to transfer treasury bills privately?
" , she was still impressed.
It's a pity that the country will only open a treasury bond trading venue in 1988, otherwise, not to mention ten thousand yuan households, she can even have a net worth of one million yuan with these.
After filling his stomach, Lu Jin went back to his room very contentedly and fell asleep early.
The next day we came together, and when she opened the door, she saw that there were many people blocking the door, and when she saw her, they all surrounded her with excitement and asked, "Girl, I was introduced by Lao Zhang/Lao Li/Lao Zhou yesterday. Are you accepting treasury bills?"
Lu Jin: ...I dare not listen to the people she said yesterday.
"Sorry, I won't accept it today, everyone go back!" Lu Jin shouted loudly.
"Don't, girl, we've come all the way here, so 60% off?" The people present kept saying around Lu Jin.
Lu Jin only felt that she was going to be squeezed to death by the crowd. No matter what she said, she would be drowned by the crowd in an instant. Fortunately, Xie Yi heard the movement and immediately opened the door to rescue her.
Thinking that this would not work, she took a breath and shouted again, "Everyone, listen to me! If I could charge it, I would definitely accept it, but I really don't have that much capital, so I don't need to lie to everyone.
" People don't believe Lu Jin's words, but that's not the case, mainly because most people think that they can get several thousand yuan at a time, and people who are willing to buy these papers are usually not encountered. Grab it, instead of letting the paper sit like this at home, it's better to get back some of the principal, and don't lose everything by then.
"When we beg you, girl, please be kind and collect our coupons. Our family can't open the pot, and we're just waiting for this money to buy rice!" At this moment, some people began to cry and become poor.
Xie Yi also understood the whole story. Seeing those people pestering Lu Jin might as well, he simply said to her: "Otherwise, you can take it, and I will give you the money."
Lu Jin thought about it and said, "Okay, then take it as I borrowed it, and I will return it to you with interest in three months."
With the funds provided by Xie Yi, she took all the treasury bills from everyone present, watching the people who sold the bills with satisfaction After she left, she counted the treasury bills she received, because this time it was a 40% discount. With the ones from yesterday, she already had nearly 10,000 treasury bills on hand.
Lu Jin, who originally just wanted to earn some small pockets along the way, didn't expect to almost turn himself into a million-dollar household.
Relying on this time, three months later, she successfully exchanged treasury bills into RMB, and earned a few thousand dollars. In exchange for wages, she had to work for several years, and it was quite easy to earn this money, just like picking it up for nothing. She also returned Xie Yi's money to him with interest.
And those who sold the treasury bills to Lu Jin saw that other people who didn't sell them got the principal and interest three months later, which together was enough for their salary for a few months, and they regretted it again, waiting for the next year. They bought it, but found that there is no such short-term one anymore. The shortest time is five years. This time, they were persuaded to quit. After such a long time, who knows what will happen?
This is a later story, but after collecting those treasury bills, Lu Jin went to buy some souvenirs and souvenirs for her parents, and planned to go back on the fourth day.
Before she came, I heard that Xie Yi was on a business trip this time for a week, so she thought about saying hello to him, or she would go first, but just after she finished speaking, she heard him say that his business was finished, and she could go back with her .
So fast? Although she was a little surprised, she didn't know much about it. She just thought that they were already busy. Since they were going back together, she bought his ticket by the way.
What she didn't know was that Xie Yi's visit this time really broke the record for the fastest return journey for secondees. When he left, the leader here was reluctant, but everyone had their own aspirations and couldn't force them to stay.
The way back went smoothly. It was already evening when they got home this time, so they went home first, and then went to the unit to report on the next day.
In the evening, Lu Jin went to bed very early and didn't even eat dinner, and only woke up the next day to recover.
Knowing that she will be back today, the people in the power supply bureau are very surprised. She has only been there for a few days, four days or five days? This completes the task? In the past, the procurement department's business trips were as fast as a week or as slow as a month.
And this time she went to Shanghai, a place she didn't know well, not to mention asking them to buy, they were afraid they couldn't even find the factory, but Lu Jin completed it all within a few days?
Even Director Xu couldn't believe it. He had been working for decades, and he was quite knowledgeable, but when he heard that Lu Jin not only completed the task, but also didn't spend a penny, he was still shocked. Mouth, jaw dropped.
"You say it again? You said you didn't spend a penny this time out?" Bureau Xu asked again in disbelief.
"Yes, I told people that they will bring the machines over in a few days." Lu Jin nodded and said.
"You shouldn't have been deceived, you bought some of the poor quality, right?" Xu Ju asked suspiciously.
"People don't want my money, so what are they cheating on me?" Lu Jin laughed and said.
This is true, even if the quality of the goods sent is not good, then they will not suffer, Xu Ju thought.
It was not only Bureau Xu who had the same doubts. Other colleagues in the Power Supply Bureau wondered if Lu Jin had been deceived since they found out that Lu Jin had bought a batch of generators without spending a cent.
A few in the purchasing department are even more determined. Others don't understand, don't they understand? What is the price of the generator? How could there be so much cheap food for her?
"I used to be very arrogant. After going out this time, did I suffer? I see how arrogant she is, would she dare to take our life?" Liu Liqiang said gloatingly, "Let's go, let's go and comfort others, so that she is not a little girl. Hiding in the corner and crying alone."
Lu Jin had just finished reporting to Bureau Xu, and when he arrived at the office, he saw Liu Liqiang and Sun Chunrong standing in front of her desk.
"Yo, the hero is back? I heard that you brought a batch of generators for free this time? Some people have to be careful when they brag, there is no need to blow such a lie that can be broken with a poke. How crazy, now you know what's going on?" Seeing her coming back, Liu Liqiang sneered immediately.
"It seems that your purchasing department really has nothing at all, otherwise why are you so idle and run out when you see time?" Lu Jin said. "
You!" Liu Liqiang said angrily, "You think you have something amazing, and going out is just a joke, why don't you give you a batch of generators for nothing, only brainless people will do it. Believe it!"
"It's true or not. When the time comes, you'll know it at a glance. I'll allow you to be the first to see it, so that your ignorant brain can gain insight." Lu Jin smiled instead of anger, and turned to him. said.
"Okay, I want to see what you are capable of, and don't blow the bullshit." Liu Liqiang obviously didn't believe she could really do it.
Joke, when he went out before, when he didn't have to run and break his leg, he had to give gifts to accompany others to drink, and finally he could buy it at a slightly cheaper price. She, a little girl, actually said that she bought it in three days? Don't want money yet?
Then he will have to make fun of her again!
Three days later, the generator arrived.
Because almost everyone in the bureau knew that Lu Jin had purchased a batch of generators without spending a penny, but they didn't believe it much. So the day the generators arrived, everyone in the bureau was alarmed, and they all came out to see.
They saw a large truck parked in front of their unit, and a master got out of the car and shouted at the crowd at the door: "Lu Jin, who is Lu Jin? I'm Director Wang of Shanghai Dingli Generator Factory. Sent to send generators."
Oh, it's really sending generators!
Naturally, someone had informed Lu Jin long ago, she hurried down, and after signing for the receipt, the master opened the cargo compartment at the back, only to see a dozen generators neatly placed inside.
There was a commotion in the crowd.
"It's really a generator! It looks like this, it's quite new."
"It's hard to say, maybe it's the old one and the new one?"
"I don't look like it. He just reported his name!"
...
Liu Liqiang was of course in the crowd, and he was still standing in the front, waiting to see something before mocking Lu Jin.
Unexpectedly, the facts were completely different from what he imagined. The moment the cargo compartment was opened, he looked at more than a dozen brand-new generators, and he forcibly held back what he wanted to say.
Lu Jin saw Liu Liqiang at the front at a glance, she hadn't forgotten how he yelled in front of her two days ago, and now she saw him and immediately shouted at him: "Brother Liu, you didn't say you should take a good look before. A generator? I'll give you this opportunity, come and help the master to lift the generator down, so you can get a good feel for the quality of this thing up close." Just as
he was about to refuse, he heard Lu Jin continue: " A real man just does it, but if he is a man, he can't say no!"
Liu Liqiang: ...
in full view of the crowd, he didn't even dare to say a word, and went up to help the master lift the generator down.
The machine was very heavy, and after lifting it for a while, his arm seemed to be broken. There was no way he could do it, so he slipped away quietly.
However, he did take a close look at it, so he was even more angry. These generators are really brand new, and there is no trace of modification or rebranding!
Maybe embroidered pillows are useless at all! He silently comforted himself.
Such a big news of course, Bureau Xu also came out. When he saw the machine, he kept saying good, and looking at Lu Jin's eyes was like picking up a treasure. At first, he didn't believe that she could do it. Fast and good!
It is not a problem to put the machine here. The truck driver was in a hurry to go back. She told Xu Bureau and found another truck to deliver the machine to various units.
Because she didn't spend any money this time, after discussing with Bureau Xu, the generator this time was given to all units as a friendship from their Power Supply Bureau.
It's a free gift. Although Bureau Xu agreed, it still feels distressed. After all, the benefits of their unit are not very good.
"Although this money is not easy to earn, we can't give it away in vain. Since we want to give it away, we must give it away with great momentum and let everyone know. I heard before that experts from the province will come to inspect and select civilized units?"
Lu Jin's words were like a hammer, and it made Ju Xu's thinking clear at once, and he immediately said: "You young people are still very broad-minded, if you don't say I haven't thought of it yet, then I'll leave it to you to handle this matter. "
Civilized units don't seem to have any practical use, but this kind of illusory honor is very useful sometimes, at least it can be listed in front of higher-level units, and their units have never been able to do anything before. Therefore, it has never been rated as a civilized unit. If they can be rated as a civilized unit this time, they will definitely be among the best in the assessment at the end of the year!
The more Bureau Xu thought about it, the more he felt that Lu Jin was really capable. Not only did he have strong professional knowledge, but he could always think of places that others could not think of. Being a cabling in the circuit area is a bit underpowered...
