Chapter 245: Rebirth Eighty (4) Second Watch
As the weather gets warmer, the variety of wild plants in the fields also increases. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhu Yao followed the little girls in the village to dig wild vegetables and feed the rabbits at home every day. After the beginning of spring, Zhu's mother also bought a few chicks to raise at home, and Zhu Yao carefully fed these things every day, expecting them to grow up quickly and sell them for money.
Money! In her previous life, Zhu Yao was still in school and didn't worry about money at all. Even in the previous tasks, she rarely worried about money. The most important thing is that she is small now, and no one believes anything. That's what bothers her the most.
Like the last time she went to the town with the fat man, she was thinking about getting something to sell in the town, but the original owner was small and didn't think about this aspect at all. As for her, she has just passed through, and she is very unfamiliar with this era. So she vaguely mentioned it to Zhu's father and Zhu's mother, but was reprimanded by Zhu's father and Zhu's mother.
It turned out that in the countryside at this time, most people's thinking was still stuck in "the working people are the most glorious!" ".
Therefore, for the next two months, Zhu Yao has been in a boring life of digging wild vegetables and feeding rabbits and chickens. It wasn't until the weather really warmed up that Zhu Yao was inspired by the popsicles who walked the streets and alleys.
In the countryside at that time, where was there a refrigerator. Even refrigerators in big cities are not yet widespread. When it is hot in the summer, there are people who use wooden boxes and boxes of popsicles to walk around the streets and alleys. That's what kids love the most. Zhu's mother occasionally buys one for Zhu Yao to satisfy her hunger, but the eldest sister and second sister don't have it.
When the weather is hot, the seedlings in the rice fields are not alive after they are planted. Farmers who have been busy for a spring can hide at home and rest. Zhu Yao has short arms and can't ride a bicycle, so he definitely can't do the job of selling popsicles. But she thought of a way to pull her eldest sister to do it together. There is no bicycle at home, but the fat man has it at home, and the fat man's mother can't ride it yet, and only the fat man rides and plays every day. After Zhu Yao said to the fat man, he exchanged the price of two popsicles a day for the fat man's relaxation.
In addition, Zhu Yao took out the private money of the two of them as start-up capital with the eldest sister and the second sister.
After everything was ready, Zhu Yao took advantage of her young age to set out a wholesale place from the popsicle seller, and then worked with her eldest sister.
The wholesale place is the county seat twenty miles away from Zhujia Village. On the same day, Zhu Yao and her eldest sister set off with the stars in the sky when it was still dark. Due to the unfamiliarity of the road, by the time I arrived at the county seat, it was already noon.
The two of them took out the bread from the cloth bag, and ate it with cold water.
The county seat is not large, and popsicles are the most popular thing at this time. So as soon as the two inquired, they got the address of the wholesale.
For the first wholesale, Zhu Yao and the eldest sister didn't dare to ask for more, so they only filled the bottom of a box and hurried back.
From the county seat to Zhujia Village, you have to pass through a lot of villages on the way. Zhu Yao didn't have the kind of twisting of others, and when she saw the village, she shouted at the top of her throat. In this way, all the way down, before returning to Zhujia Village, their wholesale popsicles were sold out.
The two sisters had money in their pockets, and they didn't dare to delay too much, so they rushed home. By the time I got home, the sky was full of stars.
The fat man stood at the entrance of the village and waited for them, and as soon as he saw Zhu Yao, he asked Zhu Yao for popsicles. Zhu Yao took out the two specially left for him from the box, and he went home satisfied.
As soon as she pushed the courtyard door, Zhu Yao saw Zhu's father, Zhu's mother and second sister all sitting in the courtyard anxiously waiting for the two sisters.
This time, because they used the private money of the eldest sister and the second sister, Zhu's father and mother didn't say anything. What's more, business is not so easy to do, it's not that I don't have confidence in my own children, but that business in this era is really not good. The two waited for their children to come back and cry to themselves, but Zhu Yao poured out a handful of money from the cloth bag.
The eldest sister put the car on the wall, washed her face, came over and said to Zhu's father and mother with a smile: "Dad, Mom, you have a business experience." In the future, I think our family will live on the third sister. ”
Zhu Yao scratched her head embarrassedly, and said with a smile: "The eldest sister will talk nonsense, and I don't earn this money alone." I wouldn't have earned it without you. ”
Zhu's father and mother looked at the pile of money on the table, and their hands trembled with excitement. They really didn't expect it, but they just played it as a child, but they didn't expect it to really make money.
After counting, excluding the principal of the eldest sister and the second sister, they earned three yuan a day today.
In this era, three yuan is really nothing, but in that era, pork was only eight cents a pound! The greens don't cost anything, and even the seeds of the greens are collected at home and used next time.
Therefore, it is conceivable how excited Zhu's father and mother were when they learned that Zhu Yao and they earned three yuan a day. Regarding the sisters' behavior, Zhu's father and mother originally had a skeptical attitude and a disapproving attitude, but now that they really saw that they had made money, they changed their mentality. Zhu's father took the initiative to reinforce the place where the wooden box was placed, while Zhu's mother went into the kitchen to make cakes for the two sisters.
In the early morning of the next day, with the stars in the sky again, Zhu Yao and the eldest sister rushed to the county seat again. With yesterday's experience, the two of them entered a little more this time, and sold all the way back, and when they rushed back to Zhujia Village, they also sold almost enough. Zhu Yao looked at the few remaining sticks at the bottom of the box and decided to leave them to his family to satisfy their hunger.
After eating Zhu Yao's two popsicles yesterday, the fat man has been thinking about it today, and after eating dinner at home, he will go to the village entrance to wait for Zhu Yao. When Zhu Yao saw him, he took out three popsicles from the box with a smile and said, "Oh, today's popsicles are delicious, I left you an extra one." ”
The fat man took it, tore open the wrapper, took a big bite in his mouth, and sighed with satisfaction. He said vaguely: "Today my mother asked me about the foreign car, and I said that it was borrowed by my friend, don't say that you missed it when you turn around." ”
"Hey, I'm awake." Zhu Yao responded crisply, and then rushed home with her eldest sister.
Zhu's mother has finished cooking, and the family is waiting for the sisters to come back for dinner.
As soon as he saw Zhu Yao and the eldest sister coming back, Zhu's father took the initiative to take the foreign car and helped put it next to the wall. The second sister set up the dishes and chopsticks and waited for the meal to start.
Mother Zhu deliberately fried an extra dish today, although it is the most common beans in summer, Zhu Yao and the eldest sister, who had been running around outside for a day, ate very happily.
