"I was deceived in business and lost more than 80 yuan. Li Xiulan said.

"What's going on?" asked my grandfather.

Li Xiulan told the matter 1510. It turned out that she saw that apples were easy to sell and the profits were high, so she went to the wholesale market, not the original one, and people looked at her and did not introduce anyone. The selling price is a little lower than the market, but it is much higher than others, Li Xiulan saw that the fruit was quite good-looking, and some made money, so she approved a few boxes. As a result, when I opened the box in the market, I found that the top was large and the bottom was small, and the taste was much worse, sour and astringent, and I couldn't afford to sell it at all.

If you are angry, you have to go to find it, and someone next to you will persuade: Don't go, it's useless to look for it, you are willing to fight, you don't see it, no wonder others, the price is also negotiated by yourself. They also secretly told her: They all have thugs. Li Xiulan's heart was extinguished.

In the end, Li Xiulan only sold the big apples at the top of the frame, and the small and sour wholesale price below could not be sold. After waiting for a day, Li Xiulan came back with a cart of sour apples.

It cost more than a hundred dollars, and only sold for more than twenty dollars. The rest is cheap and reluctant.

Hongyun looked at Li Xiulan's sad look and said, "Let's make jam, but I haven't done it before, let's try a few first." ”

Several people tried it, and the result was that Hongyun made the most delicious, sour and sweet, slightly astringent but more tasteful. She has always been biased, good at summarizing experience, careful, flexible, the key is a strong sixth sense, can guide in the right direction.

Others tried again, but it still didn't work, and it turned out that Hongyun came to make jam alone, because there were no handy tools, and it took a few days to make it, and the book must have no time to read.

Li Xiulan went to the market to sell it for a few days, let people try it, and the response was good, not only did she not lose money, but she also earned dozens of yuan.

Li Xiulan still wants to do it when she sees the situation, such a small apple is very cheap, if she doesn't buy it expensive, she will make more money. Grandpa stopped: "Xiaoli still has to read, she is so young, she can't be so tired." You see her eyes are blue, let's think of a way. ”

Hongyun studied at home with his grandfather, Hongfang went to school, Hongzongchao just came, he mingled with a group of children and went out to play, he was also seven years old, and he was ready to send him to school at the beginning of the new semester.

At nine o'clock, Wu Xiaofan came, saw that the grandfather and grandson were reading, and looked at it curiously: "Yo, it's amazing, where is the little prodigy?"

Hongyun heard that his tail cocked again: "Of course." "That arrogant little appearance makes people want to grasp and pinch. Wu Xiaofan also pinched it, it was soft, tender and smooth.

"Smack!" was knocked off by Hongyun: "Don't pinch your face, it will hurt." Grandpa pursed his lips and smiled.

chatted and chatted, and talked about what Wu Xiaofan was doing. It turned out that Wu Xiaofan's father was an educated youth, married his mother who lived in the countryside, and divorced his mother when he returned to the city and brought him back.

He has been running outside for the past few years, trying to earn money to bring his mother over to live with him. At the age of sixteen or seventeen, I went to Shenzhen, Guangdong, in addition to working part-time, I have accumulated a little experience, and I am ready to work alone, and now I am only 19 years old, just looking at Lao Cheng. If you lose, you should call your brother, Hongyun thought to himself.

The chat time passed unconsciously, and Hongyun listened to the chat while reading a book, focusing on two things, and passed quickly.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Li Xiulan came back again, covered in mud and bruises, and the car was not pulled back.

When Hongyun saw it, he exclaimed: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

When my grandfather heard that he looked up and saw his daughter like this, his hands trembled, and he was distressed: "Xiulan, what's wrong?"

"The vegetable market is full of fruit stalls, not easy to sell, no one bought in the morning, I pushed the car to the street, where there are many people, the city management does not let it be placed, the scale is folded, and the apple is lifted, trampled on rotten, and the car is pushed away. Li Xiulan said weakly.

"And what's going on with you?" asked my grandfather again.

Li Xiulan finally couldn't stand it anymore and cried: "I protected them from stepping on them, and they pushed me down." ”

Grandpa was very angry when he heard this. Straight trembling: "Is there a way to do this!" Hongyun saw that it was not good, and hurriedly gave his grandfather a good breath: "Grandpa, let's find another way to make money and don't let my mother go out." ”

Wu Xiaofan also scolded: "& amp; ％& amp;。 ”

At this time, the small merchants and vendors were very looked down upon, and in their previous lives, they were often ridiculed by their classmates because of their mother's fruit stalls. The law enforcement methods of urban management are also known to the people of the whole country.

Hongyun said: "Just go back and let my dad find someone to take out the car." I'm going to get water and wipe it for my mother. ”

My family didn't pay attention to how a child could understand so much, and Wu Xiaofan didn't have much contact, so his feelings were particularly obvious: "This is a child, it's an adult." ”

"My mother, let's raise ** in the spring, raise a few more, I heard that now feed feed, grow fast, three or four months to lay eggs. Hongyun said while wiping the dirt on Li Xiulan.

"You are so easy to raise as a chicken? You don't need money to feed it? You have to die more than half of it, if there is a plague and they all die, you will lose everything, and you have to raise them for so long, I don't know how many you can earn." Besides, who can eat that much chicken?"

"We asked my dad to find someone to see how to raise it, guide it, and sell it to the big city. With so many people in the country, how many chickens are there?" Hongyun persuaded again.

"If it's that easy, everyone will do it!" Li Xiulan still disagreed.

"I also don't think it's safe, the chicken plague will break out at some point, and then all of them will die, and people will be infected. My grandfather didn't agree either.

"......" Hongyun was helpless and continued to clean.

"Then let's plant fruit trees too, plant something different. My dad is from the agricultural industry, so there is a lot of information in this regard. Hongyun couldn't let it go, and suggested it later.

"Peaches, three apricots, four pears for five years, all the money has been invested, what have we eaten in the past few years? Besides, this fruit tree, whoever wants to pick it can pick it, and how much money can we sell for the rest?" Li Xiulan objected again.

"Then let's build a greenhouse, grandpa, you've seen Grandpa Gu's greenhouse, and you can eat summer things in winter. If you don't understand, you can ask Grandpa Gu. Hongyun came up with another idea, and took out alcohol to disinfect Li Xiulan.

"The grandfather Gu you are talking about is an old Chinese medicine doctor, is it Gu Kaiming's grandfather?" Wu Xiaofan said suddenly.

"yes. Hongyun blinked his eyes, "You also know Gu Kaiming?"

"Yes, they're all neighbors. Wu Xiaofan said in his heart, he has also fought!

Hongyun blinked again, there is a story! The eyes of the masses are bright.

"I'll call Xiao Gu to probe later. "Grandpa claps.

"I'll go!" Wu Xiaofan volunteered. He also wants to do business, but he has little money and no partners, so he will grasp every possibility.

Soon Gu Kaiming was called to Hong's house, and on the way, Wu Xiaofan had already told Gu Kaiming about the general situation, and even said that he was going to open a chicken farm.

Gu Kaiming was not admitted to university, he didn't want to study medicine, let alone be a worker, he just wanted to do business. His father was the director of the distillery, his mother was the head nurse in the hospital, and his grandfather also made up a lot of money after he was rehabilitated, and the family had a small amount of money. Grandpa Gu said that the boy has ambitions in all directions, so the family also tosses with him, and is ready to force him to work when he is too old to do anything.

The two came to Hongyun's house, Hongfang was already out of school, Li Xiulan was changing her clothes and cooking, and Hongmian was about to get off work.

My grandfather invited them to lunch together, and they were so focused on business that they were not informal. The family has a lot of New Year's goods, and her grandfather asked Li Xiulan to cook chicken, fish and pork.

The whole family is waiting for Hong Mianfa to come home.
