Chapter 31 Inspecting the Market
There are a total of 312 people in Huangshi Village, including 16 elderly and sick people who cannot get out of the mountain village, 37 children and students who want to live in the school, and some people who are reluctant to spend money.
After discussing with the village cadres, they finally revised the travel method and divided it into two groups, one group went to the county seat and one group went to Haidong.
After the announcement of this policy, everyone is thinking about where they should go, there are not many people in the village who are willing to go out, they still have a sense of fear of the outside world from the bottom of their hearts, especially some older people, it is their dream to be able to go to the county seat.
With this difference in cost, most people said that they would just go to the county seat to see it.
Wei Qianyang actually understands their thoughts very well, it was not easy to make money before, but now it is not easy to make a little money, and they are all pinched to death, and no one wants to use the money for fun.
For everyone's choice, Wei Qianyang will not interfere.
The village cadres also carried out a division of labor, with the village women's director taking a large group of people to the county seat to play, and Wei Qianyang and Zhou Zhongshi taking other people to Haidong to have a look.
For the village cadres who did not go to Haidong, Zhou Zhongshi also convened a meeting with them, and told them about Wei Qianyang's possible purchase of subscription warrants, and those who were willing to buy could be helped by him with money.
What surprised Wei Qianyang was that there were really a lot of people who came to Haidong at their own expense, adding up to a total of sixty-five people, all of whom were young people, all of whom made some money this time and wanted to see the outside world.
Wei Qianyang divided the people into ten selected people to be responsible, and he and Zhou Zhongshi were in charge, a total of ten groups, one group is six to seven people.
Although Wei Qianyang estimated that there would be too much criticism in the county about their village's behavior, he didn't care anymore, and directly took people on the train to Haidong.
In fact, as Wei Qianyang guessed, their Huangshi Village has almost released a satellite, and the whole village has made money to play, which has never happened in the county.
Chu Zhengshan didn't expect Wei Qianyang to play this hand, so he could only smile bitterly, he returned to the county and talked to the old man on the phone, and told Wei Qianyang everything he said.
As for what the old man would do, he couldn't figure it out, so he could only wait now.
The villagers didn't know about the outside world, and this tour of the whole village made everyone more and more excited, and they all puffed up their chests in front of the people from other villages.
People who have never been on a train before are even more curious about what they see outside the window during the journey.
Everyone was probably too excited about this trip, and no one was willing to rest, looking out the window without blinking their eyes.
They chose a car with the least number of people, and now most of them are going south, and there are not many people to Haidong, and everyone is crowded into several connected carriages, except for people, everyone has a big bag, which contains all kinds of things to be sold.
Wei Qianyang also thought about it, this time I want to let everyone feel the feeling of going outside to sell, only in this way will they really integrate into the life of the outside world.
"Branch secretary, with so many mountain goods, can you sell them?"
Hearing Jiang Caiju's inquiry, Wei Qianyang said: "I don't know, I'll talk about it when I get there, anyway, these things are collected from the mountain, and they are also put away." ”
On this trip, air-dried mushrooms, pheasants, hares, bamboo sunflowers, lion's mane mushrooms, and some medicinal herbs were carried by everyone in a large bag.
Wei Qianyang didn't know what kind of situation Haidong was like during this time period, so he also felt unfamiliar with that place now.
"I feel like I can sell it. ”
Everyone started talking about it.
The green train in this era was really slow, and after a day of train rides, they finally arrived in Haidong.
As soon as I got off the train, I was shocked to see the lively scene, and the shock I felt when people who had never left a mountain village suddenly saw such a large city.
Wei Qianyang didn't have the same feeling. It's just that his feeling is still a little different from everyone, this is a Haidong that has not yet developed, and there are many differences from the Haidong that Wei Qianyang visited in later generations, Wei Qianyang tried to find some places in the past, but unfortunately it was completely different.
Everyone followed Wei Qianyang closely, and their eyes couldn't stop looking around.
Due to the large number of people in the group, many people along the way had their eyes on them.
Wei Qianyang was also helpless when he saw this situation, everyone was completely just some villagers who had never seen the world.
After all, Wei Qianyang was a person from here, so he didn't stop at the train station, and took everyone to find a guest house that looked pretty good.
The reason why Wei Qianyang decided to live here was to see that this was a guest house run by an old enterprise, and now that it is open to the outside world, the security is relatively better.
For the people in the village to sleep in the place is not too particular, this is a six-story brick building, there are one or twenty rooms, each room can live four people, more can also be squeezed together, Wei Qianyang learned about it only when he knew that the business of this guest house is not very good, basically can not live a few people, so he simply chartered 17 rooms, he and Zhou Zhongshi live in one, and the others live.
Now the house price here is five yuan per person, and a room is twenty yuan a day, and when everyone hears that the cost is 340 yuan a day, everyone opens their mouths wide.
"I thought I had a little money, but when I got here, I realized that my little money was not money!" a self-funded villager smiled bitterly, somewhat regretting.
Wei Qianyang knew: "That's why you should come out to see the situation outside, don't stay in the village and think that you are the best!"
"Zhishu, when are we going to sell something?" someone asked in a hurry.
"Don't worry, tomorrow we will go to the market first to sell the mountain goods or something, and then go to the strange stone exhibition. Zhou Zhongshi said at this time.
Wei Qianyang smiled and said: "I have learned about the situation here, and tomorrow everyone will be accompanied by the comrades from the guest house to the various vegetable markets to have a look, understand the price and then sell it, don't sell it cheaply." Wei Qianyang had already discussed with the waiters at the guest house, and asked them to take them to play, and the people they brought gave twenty yuan every day, and they were all very happy. In this regard, he naturally had to listen to Wei Qianyang's arrangement, and Zhou Zhongshi was obviously a little at a loss.
"So, what about our stones?" asked one of the villagers.
"Tomorrow I will take the people with stones to the strange stone exhibition to see what is going on. ”
Speaking of this, Wei Qianyang smiled and took some tickets and said: "We also have an advantage of living here, we don't need money to take a bath here, we can go to the bathroom, and we can go to the canteen to eat when we eat, which is cheaper than outside, these are meal tickets, and you can eat if you take them." So saying, he led the people out and found a place to bathe and eat.
"Secretary, everyone is stripped and washed!" a woman asked.
"Are you washing your clothes on?" a woman asked with a smile.
The women all laughed, and some of them did just mean to laugh.
Those lads hey hey straight music.
After Wei Qianyang asked the waiter to take everyone to the bathing place to wash it out, there was more laughter in his ears, and for these people in the village, the feeling of standing under the faucet in front of the public to rinse was also a new experience.
Some of the women were even blushing and whispering and laughing.
Wei Qianyang was really tired, so he took a shower and came back to sleep.
After breakfast the next morning, a few women from the guest house took the people from the village shopping.
After getting the money, the waiters were very enthusiastic.
Wei Qianyang also came to the place where the strange stone exhibition was located after asking, and it was very lively as far as the eye could see, and there were some foreigners here.
The people of the village who came with them were dazzled by the strange stones here, and they all looked at the prices marked there.
When Wei Qianyang found the people from the organizing committee to inquire about the exhibition and sales, the other party was polite, and when he heard that they were villagers organizing a group to participate in the exhibition, he was also curious, and praised them for this behavior, and even did not charge their money, so he assigned a place for them to display, of course, as long as someone needs it, they can also trade.
Wei Qianyang took a look at the location, it didn't look very good, and he could put things away. Of course, he also saw that there didn't seem to be many good stones in this exhibition.
His eyes swept over those merchants, and Wei Qianyang didn't know if his stone could be sold for a lot of money.
"Zhishu, our stones can't compare to them!" the villagers realized that they had thought a little simpler.
"Yes, their stones are all beautiful! ours is a little more beautiful with some tree roots as supports. ”
"Thanks to the branch secretary, without the decoration of the roots, our stones are no match for them. ”
Wei Qianyang said with a smile: "The focus is on participation, the stones we brought this time are still somewhat distinctive, I believe there are still people who like it, and we will bring them to the exhibition tomorrow." ”
Hearing Wei Qianyang's words, everyone also had some confidence.
Wei Qianyang didn't know what the final situation would be, anyway, the purpose of bringing everyone here was to let people know how their money came from, which could pave the way for him to make money in the future, even if someone came to check, he couldn't find anything.
