Chapter 9 Buying Rice
This year, my sister is going to junior high school, and the tuition fee is not expensive, but because she wants to come to the town to go to school, she must live in the town, rent a house, and live for living expenses, which is a lot of expenses.
Swallowing and sighing, she bypassed the watermelon stall and got into a grain and oil store she frequented.
"Yo, Xiao Yao is here. ”
The proprietress is called Ma Cuiping, who was originally a girl from Ma Jiawa, according to the villagers, it was a good life for the family, and she married to be the proprietress on the streets of the town.
After all, it is a village, although she is not a relative, but she is a good person, knowing that Ma Tianyao's family situation is not good, every time Ma Tianyao comes to buy something, she will happily give less than five cents, or give more concessions on the scale.
"Sister Cuiping, are you busy?"
"I'm not busy, what are you going to buy today?"
"I want to buy a bag of rice!"
"Okay, wait a minute, sister will bring it to you. ”
"There's no rush. ”
The two laughed, and the proprietress went to help get the rice.
At this time, an old Santana was parked outside, and a young man with glasses got out of the passenger seat, and then he took out a white pouch from the back seat.
Pushing his glasses, he seemed to be slightly nervous, and Ma Tianyao obviously saw his Adam's apple moving up and down several times.
The man stopped for a moment by the car outside, as if determined to die, and then entered the grain and oil store with the white pouch.
After coming in, this person's courage seemed to have run out, and he was at a loss when he stood in front of the counter, he looked at Ma Tianyao who was standing next to him, and Ma Tianyao also looked at him.
"Hehe, that ......"
"I'm not the boss. ”
Ma Tianyao smiled awkwardly, and pointed to Ma Cuiping, who bent down behind the counter to find her the cheapest rice.
The man's face immediately turned red, and his embarrassed hands grabbed the placket of his clothes, like a soul with nowhere to put it, and looking at his age, it seemed that he was only in his early twenties.
"Ahem, hello boss. ”
"Don't. ”
The man finally mustered up the courage to speak, but unfortunately, Ma Cuiping, who was rummaging through cheap rice, didn't raise her head and replied, she seemed to know what the other party was here for.
"The owner...... We...... We can supply this rice first without charging money. ”
This seemed to be his killer move, and sure enough, hearing this, Ma Cuiping immediately stood up and raised her head.
The man seemed to feel that there was a play, and immediately opened the plastic bag in his hand excitedly and began to introduce.
"Boss, this rice is very good, this is our factory ......"
Obviously, Ma Cuiping didn't care about this issue, so he was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
"You say...... Can this rice be distributed for free?"
"Uh...... Yes, we have just promoted, all you need to provide a business license and proof of identity, you can distribute the goods for free, and then settle this batch of money when you sell the next batch of goods. ”
"What's the offer?"
"Twenty-two, ten pounds!"
"The price is not expensive, but the quality is ......"
"You can rest assured about the quality, let you sell it first, if you can't sell it, we will pull it away next time! ”
"Okay, you give me a few bags, I'll sell them first. ”
"Okay, thank you, then I'll give you ten bags first?"
"Okay. ”
The man is obviously not a salesman, the business is negotiated, and he forgot to introduce his name, and this kind of small grain and oil shop is not a big company, they only care about the price, no one cares whether you are produced by a regular company, whether there is a formality certificate.
What's more, it is a sales model that distributes goods for free first, anyway, it doesn't cost money, and it doesn't do it in vain.
This person took out ten bags of goods from the trunk, and after negotiating business with this side, he seemed to have confidence, and went directly to the grain and oil store opposite to talk.
After the person left, Ma Cuiping explained to Ma Tianyao with a smile.
"Hehe, this kind of salesman, can come many times a day, by the way, Xiao Yao, the kind of rice you want is gone, the rice is too rough, the people who buy it are not good, we have been busy recently, and we have not bought it recently, or you will take this bag, you also heard it just now, the purchase price of twenty-two, I will give it to you at the original price, go back and try it." ”
Ma Tianyao frowned and took it, and whispered his name.
"I'm so fragrant...... Sister Cui Ping...... The name of this rice is too serious......"
"Hey, you don't care if it's serious or not, anyway, it's three yuan cheaper than your original kind of rice, even if it's bad, it's probably better than the one you originally bought. ”
"That's right, then I'll buy a bag and try it back. ”
She took the rice and put it in the bamboo basket, and went out on her back, she just saw the man from the trunk of the car to the grain and oil store opposite, and said in her heart that the temptation of this free is really great, and it is simply invincible.
As for whether this rice is good or not, it doesn't matter, anyway, she will get out of the spell of white porridge when she goes back at most twice.
Carrying rice home, when I got home, my sister had already woken up, and sure enough, Shi Xiaoxiao was still snoring.
Uncovered the quilt, aimed at Shi Xiaoxiao's buttocks, and slapped him hard, Ma Tianyao felt that most of the anger in his stomach disappeared in an instant.
"Oh, what are you doing......"
"What are you doing? You don't even see what time it is? I've come back from the meadow town, and you're still sleeping? Say, do you want to go out and pick up the rubbish, or stay at my house?"
"Nonsense, sister's temperament, sister's breasts, can you pick up the rags? Of course I'm staying at your house!"
"Then get out to the kitchen and help!"
"Gotcha!"
Shi Xiaoxiao got up with a smile on her face, and didn't forget to shake the two lumps of meat, and the angry Ma Tianyao rolled her eyes and went out.
When I arrived in the yard, I saw my sister Ma Tianrou squatting in front of the dying cactus in the corner of the wall and talking to herself, and suddenly the fire came up.
"Rourou, you've been squatting for half an hour, are you talking to the cactus about your life ideals?"
Unexpectedly, Ma Tianrou turned her head in surprise.
"Ah, sister, how do you know? Come and listen, the cactus said that it is dying, let me pity it, and water it again......"
"Neurotic! It's exactly the same as Shi Xiaoxiao, I want to be angry with me, isn't it! Hurry up and brush your teeth and wash your face, and go to review and read!"
"Oh!"
Ma Tianrou got up aggrievedly, then squatted down and said a few words to the cactus, and then reluctantly went to brush her teeth and wash her face.
When he came to the kitchen, Ma Tianyao washed rice and cooked, it was still white porridge today, and as soon as it was boiled in the pot, Shi Xiaoxiao came to the side and complained.
"Why is it white porridge again, no matter how delicious it is, you can't eat it all at once......"
"Come on, come on, give me 100 yuan, and I'll go to the town right away to buy you meat and vegetables!
Hearing the money, Shi Xiaoxiao immediately smiled awkwardly.
"Hehe, let's drink white porridge, I'm poorer than you now, and I can't afford to pay the phone bill. In fact, white porridge is very good, at least it is better than picking up rags. ”
After saying that, I consciously went to take out the garbage.
