Chapter 546: Lu Chen

Some of this year's new grain was still left in the granary, and the rest of the truckload was pulled into the mechanical mill that Lu Chen co-founded with his third cousin two years ago.

Recently, it has been raining continuously, and the countryside is cool and clean, and Mrs. Lu is a little happy, so she is not in a hurry to return to the city. After Lu Chen's condition improved, he was much more cheerful, and he was not as quiet as before, he often chatted with them at home, and never hid things outside.

Hearing that her son said that this year's harvest was not good, a considerable part of it would be left in the granary, Mrs. Lu was a little puzzled, and immediately asked: "This year's harvest is not very good, and the price of grain should rise, why do you still have so many shelves in the granary?"

Lu Chen was accustomed to seeing Uncle Zhang and Aunt Sun's way of getting along with each other in a small town, and he felt envious in his heart, so he tried to communicate and exchange more with his wife and mother. As time went by, I also developed the habit of discussing everything with my family. "The old people in Zhuangzi all said that the weather was not quite right this year, and they might be able to send water. ”

Mrs. Lu married into the Lu family and had never seen hair water for so many years, although she was a little frightened by this, she was not afraid. However, there was inevitably uneasiness in his expression.

"Don't be afraid, this is just speculation, no one can predict it, but the preparations that should be made must be done in advance, so as not to make things difficult at the end. ”

Unexpectedly, this speculation soon became a reality. The gloom of many days turned into rain, first thin, intermittent, and before people had time to enjoy the rare coolness after the heat, the rain suddenly poured down and crackled.

Lu Chen took his mother and wife back to the city when the rain showed signs of getting heavier. In the final analysis, Shiren has a very strong clan concept, and Rao is he has never been accustomed to his family's style of bullying the poor and loving the rich, but he has to admit that at critical moments, his family is always more reliable than outsiders.

After carefully taking care of the crops for more than half a year, seeing that it was time to harvest but encountered a downpour, even if there were a lot of early harvests like Lu Chen Farm, but in the end, there were still those who had a fluke mentality to grab the harvest in the future, which can be described as a heavy loss, and within a few days, the price of grain rose all the way as many people expected.

After Lu Chen separated from his family, in addition to the farm, a tea shop that his wife accompanied when he got married, and a mechanical mill in partnership with his third cousin, he also opened a grain store. The grain store is not big, in addition to selling the grain and edible oil purchased from the mechanical mill, it also buys dry goods and resells them to make a difference, because the quality is good, the price is appropriate, and the clerk has a good service attitude, and soon earns a good reputation in the city.

Looking at this situation now, there is no way to continue for a while.

"Other companies have raised their prices, so let's not raise them, I'm afraid we will attract hatred. "When Mrs. Lu got married, her mother's family accompanied several shops, although they were sold one after another in order to recuperate her son's body, but in the end, she also tried to run it, and she was very aware of the dirtiness between her peers. "I heard that Qian Dafeng sent his daughter to Liu Dujun's mansion and was accepted as his aunt's wife. The money basket has been staring at our grain store for a long time, and now that he has a backer, I'm afraid he won't just say a few sour words like before. ”

"That black-hearted money basket has long seen us like a thorn in the flesh, and it is the same whether we accept it or not. "Qian Dafeng has been controlling the grain market in the city before, Lu Chen is buying land to grow grain, and he is running a mechanical mill and opening a grain store, with a stable supply of goods, excellent quality and high-quality service, he forcibly tore off a large piece of meat from Qian Dafeng's hands, so how can he not hate? The two have already made a feud, and Lu Chen does not feel that there is still room for turnaround. "Let's win by word of mouth, isn't it self-defeating to follow the trend and raise prices at this time? Even if we sell out of inventory and close down, we can't make this black money with a clear conscience. ”

The son's attitude was resolute, and even if Mrs. Lu didn't agree with it in her heart, she didn't say much. I just secretly planned to take the time to go back to my parents' house and talk to my father about it, so as not to make Chen'er young and vigorous, and one was accidentally calculated.
