Chapter 73: Domineering Liu Chunhua
"Uncle Wang, you prepare 50,000 pieces of goods for me, and I will come up and get them in two days. In order to have goods to sell after the start of school, Hu Mingchen made a special trip from his home to the street and used the public phone in the store to call Wang Zhan to book the goods in advance.
"Hehe, Mingchen, at the end of last semester, your order was 80,000 sheets, why has it dropped to 50,000 sheets now, have you become less courageous or do you think you can't sell it over there?" Hu Mingchen reduced the number of orders, which made Wang Zhan feel a little surprised.
"Uncle Wang, I'll tell you the truth, it's not that I'm timid, it's not that I can't sell it, the key is that my capital has become thinner. Hu Mingchen said helplessly into the phone.
"The capital has become thinner, you should have made some money, why did it become thinner all of a sudden, and you shouldn't have spent any money during the summer vacation. Wang Zhan asked suspiciously.
"Oh, that's hard to say, it's hard to say, I've made some money, and I don't dare to spend it, so I'll continue to do it when school starts. However, you also know that my family is not rich, no, two groups of people came to the door two days ago to ask for money, and I helped pay back more than 1,000 yuan. Although there are still more than 1,000 on my body, there is a branch that has other uses and cannot be taken out of all, so as a result, I can only reduce the number of goods I take. For Wang Zhan, Hu Mingchen still believes in him very much, so he doesn't hide it from him.
"Hehe, buy fertilizer and seeds at home?"
"That's not it...... I saved a little bit to buy ginger. ”
"Buy ginger, you buy ginger, did I hear me right?" Wang Zhan looked surprised.
"Uncle Wang, do you remember what I told you when you took me to the car? I believe that this year's price will be okay, so I decided to make one. Heck, Ben is too small, so he can only squeeze the purchase on the card side. To put it mildly, I still have to make a little money by selling cards to have the capital to collect ginger. I was going to charge a little more, but now it seems that it can only be halved. Hu Mingchen shook his head and said to Wang Zhan on the other end of the phone.
"So that's the case, are you really sure that the price of ginger will be good this year? Last year was miserable. ”
"I am confident, Uncle Wang, agricultural products are not the same as industrial products, agricultural products have a fluctuating pendulum effect, just because last year's price was not good, this year will not be bad, I have nine percent certainty. Hu Mingchen said almost categorically.
"This ......" Wang Zhan pondered for a moment, "Ming Chen, you are so sure, then I will help you, I will lend you the capital, do you dare?"
It is usually the person who wants to borrow money to ask others if they dare to lend him money, or beg others to lend him money. And now Wang Zhan not only offered to lend money to Hu Mingchen, but also asked him if he dared, which sounds a bit strange.
"Uncle Wang, hehe, look at what you said, what can I not dare. Only, I don't have anything to pledge to you. Hu Mingchen smiled and said.
"What mortgage do I want from you, if I want your mortgage, I won't mention it. Your personality and reputation are the best collateral, let's say, how much money do you have to do to be prosperous. ”
What Wang Zhan said was the truth, he was willing to lend money to Hu Mingchen, and he completely valued Hu Mingchen as a person. If it were a different person, not to mention that Wang Zhan would not take the initiative to mention it, and even if someone else proposed it, he would have to rack his brains to think of how to refuse the method and rhetoric.
In these years, many people are grandsons when they borrow money, but when they repay the money, they become uncles.
"How much...... This ......" mentioned the specific figures, but Hu Mingchen was not easy to speak.
This is too little, it doesn't help much, and it wastes Wang Zhan's heart. But if the number is too big, I am afraid that Wang Zhan will be embarrassed, so why have any other ideas.
"What? You don't know how much you need? Then you see this, two thousand is not okay? If it is not enough, you can say it, how about it?" Wang Zhan seemed to guess Hu Mingchen's embarrassment, so the good man did it to the end and took the initiative to help him put forward a number.
"Two thousand should be basically enough, very good, thank you Uncle Wang, I will pay you back as soon as I earn money." Hu Mingchen said immediately.
Hu Mingchen still has more than 1,000 now, and if he adds 2,000, there will be 3,670, not to mention how much he can do, but at least it is more than what Hu Mingchen prepared in advance, and it can definitely meet his expectations.
"It's basically enough, hehe, then when you come to pick up the goods in a few days, I'll give you the money." Wang Zhan smiled a little meaningfully.
What Wang Zhan really means is the three words "basically enough". These three words seem to be enough for 2,000 yuan, but it is only reluctantly. It's just that Wang Zhan just smiled, and didn't say that he wanted to give Hu Mingchen more money.
made a phone call to purchase goods, and as a result, even the capital of the ginger business was solved, and Hu Mingchen suddenly felt relaxed and arrogant.
Now that you have the money, of course you have to do a lot of work.
Seriously, before Hu Mingchen called Wang Zhan again, Hu Mingchen was still pinching his fingers all day long to calculate how to operate his money. Even Hu Mingchen had already planned to ask Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai to tell the people who invited them to help that their wages would simply wait until the dried ginger was sold. Only in this way can you save more money to receive the goods.
Now with Wang Zhan's help, Hu Mingchen feels very relaxed, but in addition to being relaxed, he also has a heavy feeling.
Wang Zhan is an outsider, a person who can be said to be not very relevant, but when he is in trouble, he generously and selflessly lends a helping hand. In contrast, his grandmother, his aunt, took the opposite action, not only did not help, but also pulled the back legs.
As the saying goes, there is no harm if there is no comparison, and in this comparison, Hu Mingchen will feel that a family will not necessarily do good things as a family, but outsiders will sometimes be more reliable and friendly.
Hu Mingchen has taken care of the order and cost here, but Hu Jianjun is looking for someone to help dig coal, carry coal and wash ginger, and it will be disadvantageous as soon as he leaves the division.
"Big brother, have you been busy these days, do you have anything to do?" Hu Jianjun went to Hu Mingyi's house, and saw Hu Jianye sitting and smoking on the floor of his house on the side of the road, so he walked over to him and asked.
"I don't have anything to do, just clean up in the ground, what, do you have something?" Hu Jianye asked after answering casually.
"I'd like to discuss something with you. ”
"What do you say, what's the matter?"
"If you are free, I want to ask you to help dig some coal, it will be autumn soon, my family's coal has not been dug yet, and it has not been carried yet, you see ......" Hu Jianjun was originally discussed, and the key wages had not been discussed, but he was buried in the ground and pulled the grass, and before Hu Jianjun finished speaking, let alone Hu Jianye's reply, the words were interrupted by Liu Chunhua.
"Hu Jianye, your brains, are you very idle? I'm pulling grass here, where are you bragging, do you want to clean up the vegetable field below you? Repair the house in winter, do you want to burn bricks? The ditch at the edge of the field is a little blocked, do you want to dredge it? I'm so busy all day long that my feet don't touch the ground, it's good for you to say that you're not busy, are you still a man?" Liu Chunhua's strength and pungency are not inferior to Zhong Ying, at home, Hu Jianye is basically pressed by Liu Chunhua.
"I can't take a breath, I don't say I won't do those things, but I don't have to be in such a hurry, I can take it one step at a time. In the face of Liu Chunhua's domineering, the restrained Hu Jianye's counterattack seemed so powerless.
"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, what are you doing in a hurry? You are a big man, I have to urge you and arrange everything you do, if I don't keep an eye on you, you can delay this year's affairs until the next year." You can't finish your own family's work, and you still want to help others, it's a bit out of breath!" The voice of the not tall, *, was not small, standing on the ground with his waist inserted, pointing at Hu Jianye is batch.
"Sister-in-law, I want to ask my eldest brother to help dig some coal, but do you need this? Do you think I asked him for nothing?" Hu Jianjun couldn't stand it anymore and said.
"Hmph, it's not for nothing, it's not for nothing, do you want to give back the money?" Liu Chunhua said disdainfully.
"Of course you have to give money, why don't you give money. You have you in your family, and who can take advantage of it. Hu Jianjun shot back.
"Hehe, your family is so rich, you don't have anything to eat, and you spend money to hire people, it sounds like a joke. I'm taking advantage of me, you make it clear, what did I take advantage of your family, you speak, you can't tell, don't blame me for speaking badly. Liu Chunhua sneered contemptuously and then threatened very unceremoniously.
No wonder Liu Chunhua has such a tone, the conditions of his family are indeed better than Hu Jianjun's family.
When the family divided the land, it was under Liu Chunhua's strong quarrel that almost all the better fields were obtained by Liu Chunhua and Hu Jianye, and Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai did not get any land, even if it was land, there were few close to home, but a lot of thin land was divided on the hillside far from home.
In addition, although Liu Chunhua is spicy and domineering, she is indeed a housekeeper and diligent worker, and the money that should not be spent at home will never be spent indiscriminately, and whether it is Hu Jianye or Hu Mingyong and Hu Xiangxiang, they are all under her control.
Therefore, compared with Hu Jianjun's family, Hu Jianye's family not only does not owe debts to others, but also has a surplus in side jobs such as feeding pigs, cows, and chickens every year. No, his house is better than Hu Jianjun's, but he is already considering building a new house at the end of the year.
"Don't blame you for speaking badly, when have you ever spoken well? Didn't you ask me to say that you have taken advantage of anything? Then I'll say, why does my family's land collapse into your family's land, and then it will belong to your family? But if your family's land collapses into my mother's land, and the one that falls down also belongs to your family, otherwise let Hu Jianqiang carry the soil on his own back, isn't this taking advantage? If someone else collapses your family, your family will benefit, and if your family collapses to someone else's house, it will also benefit your family, what is this?"
