Chapter 29: A Little Test
Bu San is not a veteran of the rivers and lakes, the pork sales he took over, day by day more and more popular, "Xu Yidao" came to help every night very late before going home, only two days, Tiancheng pigsty suitable for slaughtering pigs all sold out.
The year is coming, the demand for pork in the market is growing, Tiancheng's pigsty can no longer meet the demand, for Bu San, the old Jianghu can not be missed, his small abacus has long been wishful thinking, originally said to sell the pork will be settled with Tiancheng, but Bu San is clear, once the meat is settled, the following business can no longer be maintained.
"Big brother, I've been very busy in the past two days, slaughtering at night and selling meat during the day, and I haven't paid you the money, I'm really a little embarrassed!" said Bu San who finished selling meat at noon that day and found Tiancheng who was busy cleaning up in the pigsty. "Then you see if I can delay this meat for two days, how about it must be settled before the holiday?" Bu San asked this question, but also mentally prepared, he knew through friends that Tiancheng is also an enlightened person, this thing for Tiancheng, can be said to be a gesture, as said on the rivers and lakes, cooperation with successful people, that is to help themselves succeed, cooperation with Tiancheng, will definitely make yourself successful, he, the old Jianghu, with his half-life experience of reading countless people reminded himself, this time will not look away.
"Don't you see this is polite? I don't know what Bu San is like? It doesn't matter if it's early or late!" Tiancheng's kind words still made Bu San sound very comfortable.
"I really have something to discuss with you today, you see that the next few days are the most critical days before the holiday, and the pork sells better than the previous two days, so if there is no pork to sell at this time, it is simply a big loss. Bu San already had a bottom limit in his heart, and deliberately pretended to ask Tiancheng to test it.
"I really haven't thought about it, besides, the place is in the village, if you want to use it, then you can invite our village secretary Mu to have a meal, my household goods, if you want to use it, don't break it!" Tiancheng said very sincerely.
Tiancheng lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then looked up at Bu San: "It's difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, I don't know where the pigs you are going to come from next?"
"I have been prepared, Lao Xu has already provided me with some channels, there is a Li Village thirty miles away from us, and a pigsty built like you, he has adult pigs there, I want to pull his pigs here to slaughter, so that I can meet the needs before the holiday!" Bu San said with confidence.
"If there is a way, I can really help with this matter, although you use the place, if there is anything that needs to be solved by me, you just have to say it! I can't help a lot, a small favor can still help!" At this time, Tiancheng also felt that Bu San in front of him was not an ordinary person's thinking, and he would be a person who would do big things in the future.
Bu San has Tiancheng's words, the original hanging stone in his heart is considered to have fallen to the ground, he did not look at the wrong person, and thought: "I Bu San has broken into the rivers and lakes in my life, and I have met a lot of people, and I really haven't been as refreshing as Tiancheng.
Bu San came back to his senses: "Okay, you are busy first, and I will also go to busy mine!" said and walked towards the wheat field, he had to find a car to go to Li Village as soon as possible to pull pigs, so as not to miss the slaughter at night.
Bu San's Yangzhuang is five or six miles away from Xiaowangzhuang, usually riding a bicycle for twenty minutes, on this twenty minutes of the journey, for today's Bu San, are obviously a bit long, he knows, he is racing against time, time waits for no one, he can't wait to fly to the village immediately, the Taishan brand of the big wheel bicycle let him ride "rustle" When he arrived at the entrance of the village, he felt that the clothes on his body were sticking to his body, he didn't care so much, he didn't go home, but went directly to Sun Xiaochun's house where there was a tractor in the village. This Sun Xiaochun is also a celebrity near and far, he worked as a defaulter puller at the commune tractor station in his early years, and after the joint production contract responsibility system, he did not go to work, but played at home and became his own tractor. His tractor was originally purchased by the brigade to buy means of production, perhaps because Liangma had its own Bole Xiang, and it happened to be in the hands of Sun Xiaochun when it was contracted, and now Sun Xiaochun used it to pull sand and stones and other building materials from neighboring counties, and I heard that he also made a lot of profits.
When he knocked on Sun Xiaochun's door, Sun Xiaochun's son Sun Zhiqiang was the only one at home.
"Where's your father?" asked Bu San hurriedly.
"He went to the second master's house to play cards!" Sun Zhiqiang was a ten-year-old child after all, and he couldn't see Bu San's ups and downs, so he glared at Bu San and replied.
"If you go and call him, just say that I have something urgent to find him!" Bu San knew that he couldn't call him himself, and pulling someone out of the rural card field would cause everyone's disgust.
Sun Zhiqiang answered, and trotted all the way to the second master's house without closing the door.
Bu San felt that time was indeed a little waiting, he looked at the sun in the sky, and then looked at the shadows on the trees, estimating that it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. This cart has not yet been implemented, and if the pigs can't be found, the slaughter of the night will be ruined.
Just thinking about it, it was Sun Xiaochun who he was looking for who turned from the mouth of the alley, and he hurriedly greeted him: "Brother, I'm disturbing your card game!" At this time, Bu San couldn't help but say a polite word.
"It's okay, I'm in a hurry!" Sun Xiaochun looked at Bu San, who was sweating profusely, and said with concern.
"Hey, don't mention it, I'm in a bit of a hurry and need your help now, this favor is not in vain, can you help me transport a few pigs from Li Village in the afternoon?"
"Is there a cage?" As soon as Sun Xiaochun left the table, he guessed that this old brother's urgent matter was to use the car, in fact, it was not the first time that Bu San used his own car, and he was happy to serve him.
"No, how do you see this?" Bu San only then noticed that the details of the pig transportation had indeed not had time to be thought about, so he asked the old driver for advice.
"Without a cage, how can I transport a big live pig in my cart?" Sun Xiaochun seemed to be talking to himself, as if he was saying to Bu San.
"Let's bring more ropes, tie them up, and put them in the trunk!" Bu San felt that this was the stupidest way, but there was no better way than this!
Sun Xiaochun felt that what Bu San said was not unreasonable, such a simple thing, as long as you want to do it, there is a way, not to mention just a few pigs?
"Okay, how many?" asked Sun Xiaochun, who immediately thought that his trunk could accommodate a few lying pigs.
"Not much, five heads at most!" Bu San said with five fingers stretched out with his right hand.
Sun Xiaochun didn't say anything, went directly into the house, lifted off the straw covering the tractor in the yard, and without saying a word, picked up the rocker and began to warm up the tractor.
Bu San was busy picking up the rope commonly used in Sun Xiaochun's car and throwing it into the trunk.
With a puff of smoke coming out of the tractor's chimney, the tractor's roaring motor began to roar.
The two have nothing to say, they all have a common goal, that is, to pull the goods back as soon as possible, Sun Xiaochun is very clear about this with many years of experience in the car, as long as the car is out, it is to deliver the goods safely to the location as soon as possible.
When Bu San and Sun Xiaochun drove the car to Li Village, it was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon, the pigsty was far away from the village, about two miles of more than the road, the two listened to the village to follow the leader said, this pigsty turned out to be a messy stone gangzi, the year the Japanese devils entered the village, there killed several anti-Japanese guerrillas, and then it became a place where people threw some dead cats and dead dogs, people are in awe of it, now this pig uncle Yuan Lao Wu was shot there by the Japanese, so after liberation, everyone did not dare to go, this is not the implementation of the responsibility system, Yuan Lao Wu took the initiative to use this place to raise pigs, the village secretary pushed the personal favor, did not expect that this place really made pig wealthIn less than a year, this pig has grown fat, and it is really gratifying.
The two drove to the pigsty and stopped.
"Five, five!" shouted the village leader into the pigsty.
"Who!" With the voice, a middle-aged man wearing a ** hat came out of the small room next to the pigsty.
"Isn't this Ergazi?" the middle-aged man beckoned.
"Old Five, I brought you two to find you today, saying that I want to buy pigs. The leader known as Ergazi responded.
"Okay, I have to invite you to dinner!" As he spoke, Yuan Lao Wu shook hands with Bu San and Sun Xiaochun one after another: "You guys pull it now, let's take a look!" Yuan Lao Wu then asked.
"Pull it now, you see how many we can fit, just a few heads. Bu San looked back and pointed to the tractor parked behind.
"At most, there are only four or five heads, and I can't fit more. Yuan Lao Wu felt that something would happen if the car was loaded too much, so he said a little vaguely.
"Then add one more head and pack six heads!" What about the price?" asked Bu San a little uneasily.
"The price is right!" Yuan Lao Wu hurriedly said.
"In the first year of this year, I haven't raised so much, the people who come to pull the pigs are all people from the food station, I haven't sold it to a person yet, you are the first, the price will not exceed the price of the food station, you know the price, I don't need to say more, just according to their price, you can pull it if you think it is suitable, the first time you pull it, let's give you some discounts when we settle the account!"
Bu San nodded, when he came, he was always thinking, coming here is not long money is to burn high incense, I didn't expect to take the initiative to give himself some discounts, in this year's joints, I feel that it is a pie in the sky to be able to pull pigs, and now Yuan Lao Wu took the initiative to propose a discount that surprised Bu San.
Between people, from each other to recognize that familiarity sometimes only needs one thing or a move, so many years, Bu San's view of people stays on things, if this person does things to show a large measure, then Bu San concludes that this is a great talent, the great talent here is not to see its level of knowledge, what is important is the measurement of this person, although it is the first acquaintance with Yuan Lao Wu, but from the word "preferential" just now Bu San concluded that this Yuan Lao Wu can make friends, is a friend on the scene, and doing things is by no means a lewd villain. A person who is calculating, no matter how open-minded will not be open-minded, how can a person who is not open-minded be sunny, how can a person who is not sunny become a big thing, even if it becomes a big thing, it will also lead to a catastrophe. This is Bu San's shortest philosophy of life, and it is this simple philosophy of life that has benefited Bu San to this day.
Bu San followed Yuan Lao Wu into the pigsty, picked six pigs and rushed to another empty circle, and then rushed into the cage, weighed, and got on the car, for Yuan Lao Wu and Er Gazi, they were all familiar with the road, and the pigs were loaded into the car cleanly, just in case, Yuan Lao Wu also took out a set of nets, covered the top of the car box, and firmly tied the knot on the car box.
Although it is easy to say, in practice, it took four people a full two hours. Bu San saw that the sun had slid to the roof, if he didn't hurry up, I was afraid that he would have to walk at night, Bu San, who had finished settling the account, saw that Yuan Lao Wu had let go of the fraction, and felt in his heart that this Yuan Lao Wu was by no means a person who loved money like his life, otherwise he would not let it out so much.
Bu San ordered the money, this money should have been for Wang Tiancheng's pig, delay for three or five days, you can borrow money to make money, take it in a proper way, he firmly believes that if the money is used well, he will give birth to money for himself immediately.
When the tractor started on the way back to Xiaowangzhuang, Bu San felt relaxed, as if he saw the fortune brought to him by this Spring Festival, and couldn't help humming the nondescript tune that he only hummed when he was happy:
It's New Year's in winter,
Every household gets a new look.
The village sang a festive song,
Brother and sister burst into tears.
