that you gotta have money
in order to make money?

:48:03
- I'll get some money.
- How?

:48:06
I'll get it.
:48:08
Look, don't get so near to me.
I don't wanna get all hot again.

:48:11
How much money could you get?
:48:13
CAL: What do you think I need?
:48:14
If you had $5,000...
:48:21
$5,000?
:48:23
It's a little different when you start
putting it into figures, isn't it?

:48:30
I know you wanna help your father...
:48:32
but a kid your age can't be expected
to put his hands on $5,000.

:48:35
Maybe if you could raise $100 or so,
we could let you have a little share.

:48:38
I don't want a little share,
I want the whole thing.

:48:41
CAL: I'll get $5,000.
WlLL: If you and Aron went in together...

:48:44
Aron ain't got nothing to do with this.
This is my deal.

:48:47
I'll get the $5,000.
:48:48
WlLL: What're you gonna do, borrow it?
:48:52
Yeah.
:48:54
All right. If you can borrow $5,000...
:48:57
I know a farmer who's got over 800 acres.
:48:59
WlLL: It's under cultivation.
CAL: All right. What do we do?

:49:03
If we can guarantee him 5 cents a pound...
:49:06
and make him a seed loan,
he'll plant beans.

:49:08
So will a lot of other farmers.
:49:10
Why, we can contract
all the bean acreage you want.

:49:14
[Cal laughing]
:49:15
CAL: That's it. That's great.
When do we start?

:49:19
CAL: How do you know the price
will go above 5, though?

:49:22
Did you read the newspapers
this morning?

:49:24
We're apt to be in war any minute.
:49:26
You know I got a contract
with the British Purchasing Agency...

:49:30
and I got a friend in
the Quartermaster Corps.

:49:32
Do you know
that we could sell all the dry beans...

:49:35
that we can find
at 10 cents a pound or more?

:49:37
That's what I want. That's it. See?
:49:41
CAL: How much will I make?
WlLL: Enough for what you want.

:49:51
