Chapter 39 Procurement
"Well, I'll ride our bike in a while, you buy some of it, and I'll take some of it home, and I'll ride it fast and without effort. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Anyway, it takes about twenty minutes to ride a bicycle back and forth, it's a big deal to have a few more round-trips, you and Weiwei will wait for me at the Zijin Road Grain Store after buying some of them", Lin Aiguo thought about it and said to Guan Lanfen.
"Well, patriotism can only work hard for you", Guan Lanfen reluctantly agreed, and it could only be like this.
After discussing, the family went out, Lin Aiguo pushed the car, Guan Lanfen led Lin Caiwei, although something unpleasant happened in the morning, but it couldn't stop them from starting a business.
"Patriotic, let's do a good job, buy a tricycle when we make money, and never suffer that kind of anger anymore", Guan Lanfen saw that Lin Aiguo was a little depressed and comforted.
"Yes, Dad, in the future, our family will build a house, a big house, a house bigger than my grandfather's", Lin Caiwei also said on the side, gesturing with her hands.
The words of his wife and daughter made Lin Aiguo understand, yes, if he can make a lot of money and buy a tricycle at home, he will never suffer from that kind of bird gas again, especially letting his wife and daughter suffer with him, which is the most uncomfortable for him.
Thinking of this, he was suddenly full of unprecedented enthusiasm and anticipation for doing business.
When people met people they knew along the way, Lin Aiguo was ridiculed for the scratches on his face, thinking that Guan Lanfen scratched them, and persuaded the eldest man to let some women, and the husband and wife fought at the head of the bed and closed the end of the bed.
Guan Lanfen's face darkened when she heard this, and Lin Aiguo also looked embarrassed and bitterly smiling, only Lin Caiwei was secretly laughing on the side.
Guan Lanfen, who can live, visited all the shops that buy grain in the small town, Lin Caiwei doesn't care, but when she sees her father on the side, she is almost depressed, and she secretly laughs at a small town, so she can't stand it, men are really afraid of accompanying women to go shopping, and when he goes to the city in the future, especially in big cities, he can bear it.
After shopping around, Guan Lanfen chose one of the stores called Xiong Datou Grain Store to buy it.
"Boss, we buy more, can we have less?", Guan Lanfen bargained with the shopkeeper.
As soon as the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately said with a sad face, "Big sister, you go and see which one of the same quality in this town has the cheapest price of mine, and if you give you less, I will lose money."
When Guan Lanfen heard this, she felt a little embarrassed, so she didn't say anything more, and concentrated on picking up the things she wanted to buy.
The ingredients needed to make eight-treasure porridge are longan, red beans, millet, red dates, black rice, barley, peanut kernels, sugar, glutinous rice, wheat kernels, mung beans, fortunately, although this shop looks small, the things are very complete, Guan Lanfen weighed five catties.
She remembered that there were still a lot of peanuts needed for peanut porridge, so she asked the boss to weigh five more catties of peanuts, and glutinous rice also weighed five catties more.
Lin Aiguo locked the bicycle outside, followed Guan Lanfen and didn't speak, just followed around to see if these rice or anything were good.
Guan Lanfen looked at the boss without blinking, and then wrote down the price of everything in the notebook, and then calculated it a few times with a calculator, and finally it was two hundred and forty-eight yuan and seven cents.
Lin Aiguo was stunned to see it from the sidelines, it was so expensive, and he followed his wife out to buy something once before he knew that it was not easy to be in charge, and the money from selling vegetables last time was almost spent.
Just as Guan Lanfen took out her wallet and was about to pay, Lin Caiwei stopped her, she said with a smile, "Uncle, my parents buy so many things to prepare to sell porridge, do you see if you can give a nine-percent discount, if I want to sell porridge in the future, I will buy from you, this time it is to test the water, buy less, and in the future, business will be good, I will buy more, do you say this is the reason?"
The shopkeeper was already a little unhappy when he saw that it was a child talking, but after listening to what Lin Caiwei said, he thought about it for a while, obviously moved, but he looked up at Guan Lanfen and said, "Big sister, does what you say this kid count?"
"Count!", Guan Lanfen was stunned, obviously she didn't expect this one, she didn't speak, this time it was Lin Aiguo who answered.
"That's okay, I'll give you a nine-percent discount, remember to come to my small shop more in the future", hearing the man who was the head of the family speak, the boss agreed very happily, and quickly picked up the calculator and pressed it.
"After a nine-percent discount, it's two hundred and twenty-three yuan and eight cents, I'll give you a whole number, a total of two hundred and twenty-three yuan will be charged to you, remember to buy these things in the future to patronize me more", the shopkeeper happily counted the whole number, and did not forget to tell Lin Aiguo.
"Hey, okay, boss, you're interesting enough, we'll identify your family in the future", Lin Aiguo said with a hearty smile.
Guan Lanfen also nodded and thanked the boss, it was the owner of the store who remembered Lin Caiwei, and praised Lin Aiguo and his wife, "Your daughter is amazing, she must be a talent in the future, and you two are blessed people."
"Where, where, my daughter is sometimes a lot of ghost ideas and clever", Lin Aiguo heard people praise his daughter, and said modestly no, but his heart was happy, thinking, my daughter is smart, give me a long face.
"Alas, if my stinky boy is half as smart and sensible as your daughter, I'll burn high incense," he said, thinking of his mischievous son, and sighed.
"When a boy is young, he should be mischievous, lively, and honest, and it will be good when he grows up," Guan Lanfen took over and said.
"But no, brother, you just wait to enjoy your son's wealth", Lin Aiguo said with his wife.
Sure enough, hearing this, the shopkeeper smiled and gave another pound of jujubes. After all, what parent doesn't like to hear others praise their children.
"Alas, brother, what are you awake about? My surname is Lin, my name is Lin Aiguo?", Lin Aiguo asked with a smile.
"My surname is Xiong, my name is Xiong Dacheng, I am thirty-five years old this year, look at you younger than me, you can call Brother Xiong in the future", Xiong Dacheng said briskly.
After a while, the two of them called each other brothers, and Guan Lanfen, who was watching, shook his head, man.
It wasn't until Guan Lanfen interrupted that they stopped talking about the two brothers, and Lin Aiguo said to Xiong Dacheng, "Then Brother Xiong, I'll put these things here for you first, I'll come over and get them later, and we have to go to the vegetable market to buy some things, so it's not convenient to take them." ā
"Okay, then what's the problem, you go, put the things here with me, and you can put a hundred and twenty hearts", Xiong Dacheng patted his chest and said.
"Hey, then thank you Brother Xiong", Guan Lanfen thanked.
Out of the grain store, Guan Lanfen pulled Lin Caiwei towards the vegetable market, and said, "I know that there is a family that buys potatoes that are good and cheap, and I often go there to buy them, go for a walk, and go to her to buy them."
So Guan Lanfen learned and put it into practice, and brought out the words of Lin Caiwei's obedient grain store, and sure enough, she bought a bag of potatoes of more than 100 catties at a cheaper price, which was only 38 yuan.
sent Lin Aiguo to send the potatoes home, and the mother and daughter went to Lin Caiwei's grandmother's pork stall and weighed five catties of pork belly and a few big bones, of course, the bones were given by the grandmother to her mother.
Lin Caiwei and her mother searched for many spices to find all the spices they needed, but they were a bit expensive, a total of fifty-three yuan, although she was distressed, Lin Caiwei gritted her teeth and still paid, how could she receive the goods without paying.
"Oh, Mom, I have to buy three large aluminum pots, which are used for cooking and serving porridge, as well as disposable lunch boxes, which I need for potatoes and your porridge, as well as plastic spoons, this can't be forgotten", Lin Caiwei patted her head and thought of this, and said to Guan Lanfen, she can forget it even if she writes it down in the list, and she also serves herself, which is not good, and she will change it in the future.
Then it was easy to find for a while, and finally bought it all, and it cost another one hundred and sixteen, Guan Lanfen was in pain, and she was even more motivated, so she rushed to work hard if she couldn't waste the money.
With these purchased things, the mother and daughter waited for him at the place they had agreed with Lin Aiguo before, and after waiting for more than half an hour, people came.
"Look at what you're anxious about, we'll be fine when we wait a little longer", looking at her husband sweating profusely, Guan Lanfen was very distressed, but she didn't have a good breath on her lips.
"I'm afraid you've been waiting for a long time, the sun is so big, it's not good to get sunburned", Lin Aiguo enjoyed his wife's gentle wiping and said with a smile.
"It's up to you!", Guan Lanfen glanced at her husband, her heart was sweet.
Three pots are stacked on top of each other, and various spices and disposable lunch boxes are placed in the pots and secured to the back seat of the bike with a rope. Lin Aiguo left first.
Lin Caiwei and her mother held hands, bought some fruits, lo-mei, and a few popsicles, and then slowly walked home.
