Chapter 146: The Opposite
It was noisy, and the shouting and robbery in the market lasted for more than half an hour before it ended.
During this time, Liu Xing took Zhao Gou and Zhao Liang to hide in the rural cooperative to drink tea.
It wasn't until it was clear outside that the group of three walked out slowly.
Behind him, Yang Zhi sent it to the door: "Liu Xing, about Liu Siwen's robbery today, I estimate that the leaders above will definitely talk to us, what should we say when the time comes?"
"Truth be told, we didn't do it. Liu Xing turned around and looked at Yang Zhi with a smile.
Anyway, he is the one who said, don't do bad things, and are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.
"Okay!" Yang Zhi saw Liu Xing say this, and immediately nodded in agreement: "But don't worry, I'm absolutely fine here, and the leaders above the bank will definitely believe me." ”
"There's no problem with Director Wu and Director Tian on my side. Liu Xing didn't know what Yang Zhi meant in advance in his words, and he replied with a smile when his sword eyebrows were raised.
"That's good!haha......" Yang Zhi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he had this answer, and after waving his hand to Liu Xing, he went back to the rural cooperative.
In fact, the reason why he was so worried was because the law and order in the early 80s was very bad, and robberies and petty thefts were commonplace.
And if there are more such cases, a vicious circle will often be formed, that is, to take the money to open the knife.
This is not alarmist, but a fact in the seventies and eighties.
If the rich don't have a backing behind them, you can see how long they can jump.
Of course, we can't generalize from one side to the other, because some places have different policies and different atmospheres, and the results are completely different.
Liu Xing didn't need to think about it to know the inside story, but he didn't want to say more.
Instead, he took Zhao Gou and Zhao Liang to the shoe store.
As he walked, Liu Xing suddenly stopped. Looking at the mud on the ground on the street, he frowned.
"Boss, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Liang asked in a daze.
Zhao Gou was also a little puzzled.
Isn't it normal to have mud on the cement road on this rainy day?
"How many cleaners are there in our market?" Liu Xing did not answer Zhao Liang's words, but asked softly.
"Cleaner??" Zhao Liang was a little foggy.
"It's cleaning. Liu Xing explained.
"Oh...... No. Zhao Liang suddenly realized, and then replied directly.
"Then when you go back, you can recruit me four or five, and I will be responsible for the salary. Liu Xing walked towards the shoe store with his hands behind his back.
"It's not...... Why do you want so much cleaning?" Zhao Liang caught up with Liu Xing: "Isn't this a waste of money?"
"You know, like the concrete road under our feet, if we don't clean it, I'm afraid that there will be fewer and fewer people doing business in the market in the future, at least no vendors will be willing to come on rainy days. Liu Xing said the intention of recruiting cleaners.
"How can the mud on this road be cleaned!" Zhao Liang had a headache.
He thinks that Liu Xing is looking for something to do, and he is not fragrant when he deposits the money he collected in the bank a few days ago to eat interest?
"You are just superficial and ignorant, most of the mud on this street is brought from other trails, and some are washed down by the big water from the mountains, as long as the source is blocked, then won't all the problems be solved?" Liu Xing couldn't help but scolded: "If there is water in some places for a long time, then you must dig ditches to make canals, this belongs to the infrastructure of the market side, do you understand?" ”
If these infrastructures are not in place.
If the business of this bazaar wants to prosper, isn't that a fool's dream?
"I ...... I ......" Zhao Liang was speechless.
Zhao Gou is honest, he doesn't think as much as Zhao Liang thinks, seeing that Zhao Liang stopped talking, he asked Liu Xing with a smile at the moment: "Boss, no matter what you do, I support it, I just want to ask, the cleaner you are talking about, can my wife do it?"
"Is his illness cured?" Liu Xing asked with concern.
"It's been a long time ago, since I ate the pork knuckle you gave, I can go to the field to do farm work. Zhao Gou replied with a smile.
"Okay, go back and talk to your wife, if you think you can come tomorrow to clean the streets of the market. Liu Xing stretched out his hand and patted Zhao Gou's shoulder: "As for the salary, let's temporarily thirty yuan a month!"
I originally wanted to say fifty, but when I thought that the salary of Zhao Gou, Gouzi, Zhao Liang and others was only fifty yuan a month, I quickly changed my words.
It's not that he's black, but the infrastructure of the current bazaar, and there are many places to use money!
So where he can save, he naturally wants to save it.
When the market is on the right track, it's not too late to raise the wages of those who clean the market.
However, when Zhao Gou heard that there was so much money for cleaning, he was very happy.
Without waiting for Liu Xing to come back to his senses, he ran away, and ran away without a trace in the blink of an eye.
"This kid. Liu Xing smiled.
Seeing this, Zhao Liang on the side said: "Boss, my mother is also idle at home!
"She is very diligent and makes sure that the market is clean. After a pause, Zhao Liang added.
"Didn't you object to me hiring cleaners before?" Liu Xing asked teasingly.
"I'm a cheap mouth!" Zhao Liang couldn't help but slap himself.
Liu Xing looked at it and smiled: "Okay! Since you have this intention, then go back and tell your mother to go! But remember! Take money to do things, you can't cheat and play tricks, at least let those fixed vendors in the market have nothing to say." ”
"Got it. Zhao Liang nodded repeatedly.
"Go!" Liu Xing waved his hand.
Zhao Liang turned around and ran.
Runs faster than a rabbit.
Liu Xing was not in such a hurry, but walked slowly towards the shoe store.
On the way, he saw several business vendors getting together to chat about Liu Siwen's 20,000 yuan being robbed before, and he couldn't help but come over at the moment.
Seeing that it was a little foggy, he asked: "Is the big boss who was robbed gone?"
"I left early, and I took a tractor with Boss Zhang, who sold fir wood, to the Donghe Police Station to report the case. A balding vendor said.
"Report the crime?"
"Isn't this what it has to do with Boss Zhang, who sells fir wood?" asked Liu Xing puzzled.
The bald trader looked at Liu Xing and smiled: "Didn't you hear that the two out-of-town boys hired by Boss Zhang who robbed the big boss of the money?"
"Huh?" Liu Xing froze.
These two fools, since they have names and surnames in the bazaar, and they have work to do, what kind of money are they robbing?
If this is investigated by the police station, I am afraid that they will be caught soon.
With the seriousness of the case, as well as the criminal law on robbers in the early eighties, I am afraid that it will definitely be pulled out and shot.
"Oh! what's so surprising about this!" The bald trader looked at Liu Xing's appearance and smiled: "Actually, the rich big boss can't be a man, and he verbally insulted those two out-of-town boys, and he also showed off his wealth." ”
"That's it!" Liu Xing suddenly realized.
In this way, even if the police officers of the Donghe Police Station investigate, it has nothing to do with him.
Because from the words of the bald trader, it is certain that this robbery was purely caused by Liu Siwen.
Thinking of this, the hanging stone in Liu Xing's heart was put down.
After a few small talks with the bald vendor, he left.
After all, listening to too much of these gossip will affect his judgment.
As soon as he returned to the gate of the shoe store, Liu Dongju, who was busy in the kitchen, ran out and asked anxiously: "Xing Yanzi, do you know about Liu Siwen's robbery just now?"
"Yes. Liu Xing nodded.
"Then you hurry back, if you wait for the police from the police station to come, I will say that you don't know what happened. Liu Dongju hesitated and said what she thought in her heart.
"Sister, what are you afraid of, we are not afraid of shadows. Liu Xing shook his head, and after a few words of comfort, he walked into the shoe store.
Liu Dongju followed behind uneasily: "You kid, sister is for your good, you don't want to think about it, Liu Siwen just got money from you on the front foot, and the back foot was robbed, if anyone else, it will be said that you did it." ”
"What kind of logic are you? Liu Xing was a little speechless when he heard this: "Didn't you hear the neighbors say that this robbery was robbed because Liu Siwen showed off his wealth? I was drinking tea with Yang Zhi, a member of the rural cooperative, and I didn't know what the situation was." ”
Seeing that Liu Dongju was a little embarrassed by what he said, Liu Xinglian slowed down his tone, after all, he knew that Liu Dongju was doing this for his good, and caring about it would be chaotic, otherwise he wouldn't have an IQ that was not online: "Sister, don't worry, I'm absolutely fine." ”
"Yes, sister, don't think too much about Liu Siwen's robbery. Nai Xinru couldn't help but interject.
The reason why I called Liu Dongju's sister was because she was older than Liu Dongju.
Liu Dongju was a little relieved when she heard Nai Xinru say this, and was about to ask about the gossip that Liu Xing heard from the street, but suddenly she quickly covered her mouth and ran out.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" asked Liu Xing with concern.
"You don't know she's pregnant?" reminded Nai, teasingly.
"Huh?" Liu Xing was stunned, and after he understood, he hurriedly walked out with a smile: "Sister, you are too unauthentic, there will be another person calling me uncle soon, why don't you tell me?"
"Don't shout loudly, it's still uncertain!" Liu Dongju, who was vomiting at the kitchen door, couldn't help but say Liu Xing.
"Hahaha...... Okay! I'll be quiet. I don't know why, Liu Xing felt that all the troubles in his heart before were driven away by the news of Liu Dongju's pregnancy.
Now he can only be described in two words.
That's fun.
Liu Dongju was also a little happy: "Don't laugh, if you're okay, help go and see Xiao Budian, this naughty ghost hasn't been going to the house all day since Xiao Doudou came." ”
"Okay!" Liu Xing nodded: "I'll go to the market to have a look." ”
"When I found it, I called them back to take a shower. Liu Dongju looked at the sky and walked into the kitchen.
Liu Xing smiled and walked towards the street of the bazaar with his hands behind his back.
Before he walked five meters away, he was stopped by Nai Xinru, who was holding the account book: "Don't leave yet, you have to check the bills for the past two days to see if there is anything wrong." ”
"Don't look at it, I trust you. Liu Xing waved his hand: "It's you, are you still used to it here in my sister?"
"Well, get used to it. Naixin nodded repeatedly.
For her, when she was a girl in her mother's house before, she was not as good as Liu Dongju's house.
Except for Li Qing who occasionally came to disgust her, everyone else was very good to him, and even made her feel the warmth of home for a while.
And Xiao Doudou has also changed a lot, he has never talked to strangers before, and he is also very shy.
But now that I've eaten, I'm going out to play with Xiao Budian, and every time I come back, I'm very happy, and I have a lot of whispers with her.
Liu Xing couldn't help but smile when he saw Nai Xinru saying this: "It's good for you to get used to it, but I'll remind you in advance, with your ability, it's impossible to stay in the market for a long time to manage a small shoe store." ”
"What do you mean?"
"This matter is still uncertain, if nothing else, I will let you manage a bigger shoe store in a few months, are you willing?" Liu Xing looked at Nai Xinru and said.
"Yes, of course. "But the heart is like a reply.
"Then you go get busy!" Liu Xing smiled and walked towards the street in the market.
Nai's heart was like watching Liu Xing go away, I don't know why, my heart was warm and I wanted to cry.
......
The gate of Zhao Liang's house.
Guazi and Xiaodoudou, Zhao Jing and other children are sitting on the ground playing with mud.
That happy, that naughty, made Liu Xing, who came over, have a headache.
The reason for the headache is because the ground is full of muddy water!
This sits on the ground, not to mention dirty, but I'm afraid it's a little cold.
But these kids ......
Liu Xing didn't know what to say for a while.
Originally, he wanted to smoke a small meal.
After all, it's too naughty.
But when he thought of it when he was a child, he would have come by playing with mud like this at home.
After being stunned, he didn't put his ideas into action.
Because the scene in front of me is a small childhood.
If he forcibly destroys it, it will be a bit bad.
However, when Xiao Budian saw Liu Xing coming, he ran away.
Seeing this, Xiao Doudou also knew that he had made a mistake, so he pulled Zhao Jing and hurriedly followed.
Liu Xing was about to chase after him, but the next second he was stunned.
It turned out that on the street directly in front of him, a jeep blocked the way of Xiao Budian, Xiao Doudou, and Zhao Jing.
Because of the speed, I almost hit them.
"Whose kid is this!" After the jeep stopped, Director Tian walked out of the cab with a black face, and was stunned for a while when he saw that it was a small one.
I wanted to hug it up and comfort me for the first time, but when I saw the muddy water that didn't make a sound, I didn't do it in the end.
Liu Xing looked at Director Tian's embarrassed appearance, and couldn't help but smile: "Uncle, what kind of wind blew you over?"
"Don't mention it, it's not a case of Liu Siwen being robbed. Seeing that there were not many people on the street, Director Tian pulled Liu Xing and walked into the alley on the side: "I said that you kid can stop a little! That Liu Siwen reported to Lu Su that your shoe store sold shoes before and slaughtered them!"
"Yes, there is such a thing. Liu Xing did not deny it, but directly admitted it.
This made Director Tian a little confused, and after coming back to his senses, he lowered his voice and said, "No...... What do you mean?"
Liu Xing didn't answer for the first time, but asked Xiao Budian, who came with him, to take Xiaodoudou back with Zhao Jing, and then he briefly said what Liu Siwen and Lu Su did to him.
and the inside story of why it was robbed was also revealed.
Director Tian listened quietly, and after he understood, he was also unhappy for Liu Xing: "This Liu Siwen deserves to be robbed, and he owes him to doing such a backshit." ”
"By the way, isn't Wu Ju angry with him now?" Tian Jun couldn't help but ask.
"What do you say?" Liu Xingyi spread his hands: "He is now trapped in my house with his aunt, Sister Ding Lan, Sister Lian Fang, Secretary Yan, and Li Dawei because of the heavy rain! ”
"So, in this way, I came to this market today by mistake?" Tian Jun was a little flustered.
After all, if it weren't for Liu Siwen, I was afraid that the robbery would not have happened at all.
"Don't ask me about this, since you're here, it's natural to routinely investigate the case. Liu Xing looked at the sky: "By the way, Liu Siwen and Lu Su, did they say that this robbery was instigated by me?"
"Don't say it, when I went to the Donghe Police Station just now, I really said that, and finally I reprimanded me before I became honest. Tian Jun crossed his hands on his waist: "Since the ins and outs of the matter have been figured out, then I won't talk nonsense, and I will go to the rural cooperative to inquire about the situation first." ”
"Okay!" Liu Xing nodded.
"Let's go!" Director Tian turned around and walked out of the alley.
Liu Xing did not leave for the first time, but sent Director Tian away with a light smile.
The reason why he laughed out was thinking about Liu Siwen's current situation.
I'm afraid that Liu Siwen and Lu Su didn't expect that he also has a good relationship with Director Tian.
I want to sue and rake it, hehe...... This time, I'm afraid that I will lose my wife and lose my soldiers.
......
After returning to the shoe store.
The sky was overcast and it was raining again.
This made Liu Xing, who originally wanted to go back, have to stay.
Since the shoe store didn't have much business, he put on a hat and led the black calf along the street to herd it.
Seeing that his brother-in-law Zhao Dongkui was planting seedlings in the farmland on the side of the road, Zhao Geng and Li Qing were also helping, so they took off their shoes and rolled up their trousers and walked over, and also helped plant seedlings.
As for the black calf, he didn't care.
Because he knew that as long as the black calf was by his side, he would never mess around.
When Zhao Dongkui saw this scene, he smiled with relief: "Liu Xing, how did you handle the affairs of Hengshui Distillery and Zhongyi Distillery?"
"What else can I do with such a heavy rain?" Liu Xing straightened his waist: "Brother-in-law, do you know? The Donglong Reservoir burst its embankment, and the flood almost flooded the entire saltpeter village." ”
"Really?" Zhao Dongkui was taken aback.
Zhao Geng and Li Qing, who were planting seedlings, were also frightened.
But they knew that Liu Xing was definitely not lying, in the early hours of last night, there was also a big flood in the market, if it weren't for the good terrain of the old housing village, I was afraid that it would also be flooded.
"Why am I lying to you?" Liu Xing glanced at the black calf on the side of the road: "That Kang Jun's adobe house was washed away by the flood!"
"That's incredible. Zhao Dongkui shook his head when he heard this.
There is no house on this rainy day, and Kang Jun's family is going to suffer.
Liu Xing originally wanted to talk about the situation of the flood at that time, but Nai Xinru came running with an umbrella, and there was anxiety on his pretty face: "Liu Xing, it's not good, it's not good." ”
"What's wrong?" Liu Xing frowned.
Now Nai Xinru, it seems that there is still a lack of exercise!
Because the Nai Xin in his memory is like that, no matter what happens, he will not be shocked.
"The supply and marketing cooperatives posted a notice that starting tomorrow, all daily necessities bought and sold, including shoes, cigarettes, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, cloth, needlework, etc., do not need bills, and some daily necessities have been reduced in price a lot, among which all styles of shoes are nearly one dollar cheaper than before. But his heart said what he was about to say in one breath, and his voice changed because he was worried.
"Huh?" Liu Xing was stunned when he heard this.
This Xiao Li, it seems that in order to deal with him in the past two days, she has secretly invested a lot of money!
The price of shoes is reduced by one dollar, which is not possible in the past.
In other words, the current Xiao Li has finally realized the biggest drawback of the current business model of the supply and marketing cooperative.
If we do not carry out reforms, I am afraid that it will be difficult to survive under the policy of reform and opening up.
"Don't be in a daze! what should we do?" Nai Xinru reminded him: "Don't forget, the day after tomorrow is the day of the 18th market, and as soon as the notice of the supply and marketing cooperatives comes out, the business of our shoe store is only afraid that it will plummet."
"Yes, Liu Xing, let's also reduce the price of shoes! At least this has the ability to compete with the supply and marketing cooperatives. Zhao Dongkui on the side proposed in a panic.
"Brother-in-law, what kind of bad idea do you have!" Liu Xing couldn't help but say: "Our shoe store sells slippers and sandals, which are not the same style as the cloth shoes and running shoes of the supply and marketing cooperatives.
"Then what do you mean?" Zhao Dongkui scratched his head.
Naixinru is also confused.
If the price is not reduced, how can it compete with the supply and marketing cooperatives!
Liu Xing frowned and thought about it: "The supply and marketing cooperatives are now reducing the price of most of the goods, which is nothing more than wanting to quickly return the funds to avoid risks, and I don't want to play with them." ”
"Sister. Thinking of this, Liu Xing looked at Nai Xinru.
"Here it is!"
"If you do this, you should also write a notice, saying that the price of shoes in our shoe store will increase from tomorrow, and as for how much, I will not specify how much, and I will wait until the day of the 18th market. Liu Xing pondered for a while, and then said the plan to deal with it.
Now that summer is just around the corner, slippers and heel sandals are sure to be in short supply.
Although the price increase is a bit unauthentic, if you don't do it, I am afraid that the risk of reducing the price of the shoes of the supply and marketing cooperatives will not be perfectly avoided.
Therefore, the price must be raised, even if it is not a business, it must be a blow to the supply and marketing cooperatives.
Of course, the most important point.
His purpose in doing this was to reassure those customers who had bought shoes from his shoe store before.
Otherwise, the shoes I bought on the last market day, and it will only take a few days, and the price will be reduced by one dollar, who can stand it. I'm afraid that when the time comes, not only will it cause a lot of trouble, but also don't want to do business.
However, the supply and marketing cooperatives are different, they have long stopped taking these customers into account.
Otherwise, they would not hoard bills and buy and sell the daily necessities needed by the common people.
"This ...... Will this work?" asked Nai, worried.
"You just do it, why do you ask so much?" Liu Xing waved his hand.
"Okay!" Puzzled, Nai Xinru had no choice but to leave.
Zhao Dongkui saw that it was getting dark, and immediately said: "Liu Xing, you can go back first! You don't need your help to plant this rice, you just need to handle the business of the shoe store." ”
"Okay!" After Liu Xing finished planting the seedlings in his hand, he washed his hands and feet, put on his shoes and led the black calf back.
......
Supply and marketing cooperatives.
Although it was a rainy day.
But the gate is full of lights and a busy scene.
Xiao Li, with Xiao Yang and other employees, was cleaning up the goods on the shelves.
When they meet the villagers who come to see the excitement, they will enthusiastically serve hot tea and chat a few words by the way.
If a villager wants to buy something, they don't say the price at the first time, but points to the red notice on the wall: "Now you don't need a ticket to buy and sell daily necessities at the supply and marketing cooperative, as long as you have money, you can buy whatever you want." ”
The villagers were amazed by this.
Some even thought they were dreaming.
In order to test the truth of this statement.
They hurriedly took out the money to buy some daily necessities for the family.
It wasn't until the daily necessities were in their hands, and the prices were much cheaper, that they knew they weren't dreaming.
So, one to ten, ten to hundred.
At the gate of the supply and marketing cooperative, no less than 100 people gathered in less than half an hour.
Most of them have money in their hands, ready to rush to buy the daily necessities they need.
After all, no matter what, it is rare for supply and marketing cooperatives to be so close to the people.
It's rare to buy and sell items without bills.
Xiao Yang saw that Xiao Li had solved the situation of the cold business of the supply and marketing cooperatives with one move, and he was impressed: "My God! If this continues, then we are afraid that the goods we have hoarded will be sold out in the next two or three days!"
"You just know!" Xiao Li smiled when she heard this, and Danfeng had confidence in her eyes: "By the way, I heard Lao Yang say that Liu Xing's shoe store also posted a notice, you send someone to see what is written, this kid is not honest, we have to guard against it." ”
Now that the price of all the daily necessities of our supply and marketing cooperatives has been reduced, the shoes in his shoe store will definitely follow suit, and that announcement must be what it means, I don't need to read it to know. Xiao Yang replied disappreciatively.
"You're wrong. An uncle who bought salt couldn't help but stand up and said: "The notice posted on the wall of Xing Yanzi's shoe store shows that the price of shoes has not been reduced, but has increased. ”
"What?" Xiao Yang's eyes widened: "Price increase?"
"It can't be. Xiao Li was also dumbfounded: "Old man, are you sure you haven't seen dazzling?"
"I'm not old and dizzy!" the uncle said, then took the salt he bought and left.
"No! I'll have to see for myself. After Xiao Li thought about it, the more she thought about it, the more wrong it became, and after dealing with Xiao Yang, she hurriedly ran out of the supply and marketing cooperative.
When Xiao Yang saw this scene, he shook his head.
He really couldn't understand why Xiao Li was nervous like this when he mentioned Liu Xing.
......
The first chapter is delivered, asking for a subscription, a monthly pass.
