Chapter 98 Opportunities are reserved for kind people
Li Ye cycled half a circle around the county town, feeling that he had nowhere to go, so he simply left the city and drove to Shuangliu Town.
The potholed rural roads seriously restricted the speed of the Xingfu 250. Li Ye rode the thirty or forty miles of road for half an hour.
Today is the day of the big gathering in Shuangliu Town. On the river beach outside the town government, thousands of people from all over the countryside and neighbors gathered bustling.
Li Ye asked Han Chunlan to come here to get sesame candy the day before yesterday, but he didn’t know where to set up a stall now.
Li Ye's motorcycle is very eye-catching, and it hasn't even reached the big market yet! He saw Jin Peng waving to him by the river.
Li Ye drove over and stopped and said, "You came here in person?"
Jin Peng joked: "I can't do what your boss Li Ye ordered me to do. Come and take a look?”
Li Ye shook his head and said: "I told you not to take it too seriously, just treat them as a normal relationship."
Jin Peng said: "I know, I know, I asked Xiao Qiu to keep an eye on them, help you look at their Deep and shallow, lest you be deceived.”
Li Ye said unhappily: "How could I be deceived?"
Jin Peng smiled and said nothing more. The Han family's affairs had been rumored in Qingshui County for several months, and now they have calmed down. You Does Li Ye remember to eat but not to fight?
. . . . . .
Han Chunlan got up very early today and pushed the cart to Shuangliu Town with her husband Niu Dali.
Although what Li Ye said the night before yesterday was childish, the couple could only listen to it and believe it.
The father-in-law died early at home, and her husband Niu Dali was the only son raised by her mother-in-law. The couple had to shoulder all the burdens by themselves, without any brothers or sisters to help.
When I got married, my father demanded a lot of money as a bride price, but the Niu family paid for it with nothing left. Just after the famine was over, this bad luck happened again. .
If she, Han Chunlan, doesn't want to do it again, should she let her two children also eat bran pharyngeal vegetables?
Go all out and make money.
When the couple arrived at the Shuangliu Town Market, it was only four or five o'clock. It was just dawn, but there were already many people taking up space to set up stalls.
Han Chunlan turned around and found that there was only one young man who looked like selling sesame candy.
He rode a very rare human-powered tricycle with several large baggage piled on it, as well as two large sacks.
Outside the sack, there was a handful of sesame candy. I ate it while looking around. It didn’t look like it was for business.
Han Chunlan walked over and asked: "Brother, are you selling sesame candy?"
The young man glanced at Han Chunlan and asked directly: "What's your last name?"
Han Chunlan was stunned for a moment and replied: "My surname is Han, what is your surname?"
"My surname is Qiu."
After the young man finished speaking, he took out a large steel scale and said: "Here. , help him.”
Han Chunlan quickly helped him lift the scale and weigh the two large sacks on the ground.
“It’s two hundred and two jins in total. I’ll give you two hundred jins and sign your name.”
Xiao Qiu took out a piece of paper and asked Han Chunlan to sign it.
Han Chunlan only went to elementary school. She carefully read the words on the note twice before confirming that it was a credit note.
The two hundred kilograms of sesame candy were given to her on credit, and the price was 50 cents.
Han Chunlan took out the handkerchief that contained the money and said, "Brother, I don't plan to pay on credit. You count."
Xiao Qiu raised his head: "Do you want it?"< br>
"."
Han Chunlan was stunned for a long time, and had to lower her head and said: "Yes, yes."
She signed the credit note, called her husband Niu Dali over, and handed over the candy Just load the cart and leave.
Xiao Qiu stopped them: "Huh? Isn't there a stall here? Where are you going?"
Han Chunlan smiled and said: "Brother, you have set up a stall here, what are you doing? If we can still grab business here, let’s go somewhere else.”
Xiao Qiu said: "No, this small business will be transferred to you in the future, and I will switch to other businesses."
"Small business?"
Han Chunlan was puzzled, but she was very Soon we saw what Xiaoqiu’s “big business” was.
Xiao Qiu unpacked the baggage on the tricycle and showed off the colorful skirt, as well as the straight shirt and trousers.
In addition, Xiaoqiu also took out a large photo and hung it in a conspicuous place of the stall. It looked like it was taken to be a document with an official seal on it.
Niu Dali couldn't read official seals, but those floral skirts dazzled him. He just felt that if his wife could wear a floral skirt, it would definitely look very good.
"What are you looking at? Why don't you quickly open the stall and prepare to shout?"
Han Chunlan turned her head away from the floral skirts and urged her husband to set up his stall and wait for the customers to come. .
She was very nervous, afraid that no one would talk to her, afraid that she would not be able to make any money, and that she would be working in vain.
But the situation was better than she imagined.
In the summer of 1982, people were still poor, but a few cents was no longer something they couldn't afford. Sweets, in this era, have a powerful destructive power on foodies of all ages.
Many folks who come to the market will also Spend three to five cents, bring a big bag of snacks to coax the children, and show respect to the elderly.
Three to five cents may seem inconspicuous, but small business is all about accumulating little and making more. When it was about time to leave, Han Chunlan felt that her pocket was full of money. .
Although most of them are in the form of cents or bills, banknotes, even steel coins, can give people a sufficient sense of security.
"Dali, how many kilograms did you sell?"
"I didn't count! I was too busy to count."
"You idiot, you don't know how to read. Do you want to see how much sugar is left?”
“Oh, there is one bag left, add half a bag”
Han Chunlan quickly calculated in her head several times before she figured out that she had sold it. I bought sixty or seventy pounds of sugar.
If you keep doing this for a long time
[Li Ye is really not lying. He said he would make a thousand a year, but he really can make a thousand! 】
"Dali, what do you think we are looking at?"
Han Chunlan happily shared her joy with her husband, but found that he always looked at the clothing stall next to her house.
The couple made money today, but compared to Xiaoqiu’s clothing stall next door, it was nothing.
Ever since Xiaoqiu opened his stall, business has never stopped.
A group of people surrounded his stall. You wanted one piece and I wanted one piece. They were very reluctant to accept the money.
During the busiest time, Han Chunlan even asked Niu Dali to come over and help to maintain order, otherwise he would feel like he was about to be robbed.
Seeing that Xiaoqiu is almost sold out now, Niu Dali is lying if he says he is not greedy.
Han Chunlan kicked her husband hard.
"Dali, you have to be down-to-earth and do your duty. Don't look at the height of this mountain. We haven't figured out the business of sesame candy yet! What else do you want to do?"
"I'm not greedy, I'm not greedy. .I just want to buy you a dress. If you don’t buy it, it will be sold.”
Niu Dali explained nonchalantly, as if he was aggrieved as a child who made a mistake.
Han Chunlan said angrily: "Why do I need a skirt? Can I work in that skirt? You are thinking about useless things. Hurry up and yell at me. We will settle the bill with others after the goods are sold out."
Han Chunlan was not sure about the money she owed others. She would pay back as much as she could pay back today.
But when the show was over and she wanted to pay back part of the money first, Xiao Qiu refused.
"These two hundred catties are given to you on credit. I will pay you in cash next time I purchase the goods. In addition"
Xiao Qiu threw a dress to Niu Dali: "Thank you, brother, for your help just now." My favor, this is for my sister-in-law, don’t dislike it.”
“This can’t be done, this can’t be done.”
Niu Dali took the skirt quietly, but insisted on paying. .
The three people pushed and pushed, and finally Xiaoqiu took three and a half yuan.
"Brother, the cost of your skirt is only three and a half yuan?"
"What? Are you tempted?"
Xiao Qiu blew out a smoke ring and seemed to be smiling. He looked at Niu Dali with a non-smiling look.
Just now Xiaoqiu was selling skirts, but they cost seven or eight yuan a piece.
So dark.
Niu Dali Qiu kept saying, "No, no, no, I'm not greedy. Don't worry, brother, I'll keep it a secret for you."
. . . . .
After the gathering, Xiao Qiu rushed to the river a few miles away and met Jin Peng and Li Ye.
"Brother Peng, I've seen it, and I feel that the two of them are okay, kind-hearted, not greedy, and warm-hearted, but I can't guarantee it in the future."
"Okay, go about your business!"
After Xiao Qiu left, Jin Peng asked Li Ye: "What should I do in the future? Develop your aunt into a wholesaler?"
Li Ye said calmly: "Just wait and see what happens. Opportunities should be reserved for kind people and those who know how to be grateful."
"Yes."
Jin Peng touched it The hair on the top of my head reached my head, and I began to think in my mind.
A kind person, a person who knows how to be grateful, isn’t that the kind of person I am?
Hey~
Lao Feng will code the words after hanging the hanging bottles tomorrow, and will add more in the evening. I hope everyone can support me.
