Chapter 65: Hiding a knife in a smile
The peasants face the loess with their backs to the sky, and all year round they count on this surplus grain. If you can't get enough money, it's harder to buy a soap or a new pair of shoes than to climb to the sky.
"Zhang Youfang, you can't stop people from talking. The horse widow opened her mouth, and someone immediately said: "That's right, we have a total of just such things, of course, we will sell it to whoever gives the right price." ”
Seeing that everyone was very interested, Zhang Youfang couldn't say anything more, and snorted coldly: "Okay, then tell me, what price are you gaving?"
"I'm giving you the same price. Xu Zhinian smiled, Zhang Yujiao immediately rolled her eyes - the price is the same, so what is the competitiveness?
"But as I said before, we are buying in packages, that is to say, in addition to soybeans, we also want other unsalable grains, and the price has risen by five cents per catty!"
"What?" this time, everyone was not calm.
Xu Zhinian's words were like a thunderclap on the ground.
In the 80s, when grain was sold from the peasants, it was about a dime, and the second-class grain could only be sold for a few cents, and a pound rose by five cents, which was too tempting for everyone!
Moreover, Xu Zhinian said that it is a package purchase, that is to say, while the price of soybeans is maintained at three times, other grains can also be sold at one time!
"Xu Baoya, are you talking about it, don't look back and play with us. Han Laosi, who had sold black pork to Xu Zhinian before, shouted.
"Of course counting, I don't represent myself, I represent Xiangyang Grain and Oil Store, and you all know that our family has a relationship with Xiangyang Grain and Oil Store. ”
Xu Zhinian added the word "related", and everyone exchanged glances, affirming this relationship.
"Since it is Xiangyang Grain and Oil Store that wants to buy it like this, there must be no mistake. The horse widow was immediately moved: "I will register first, and I will move all the food to the brigade." ”
As soon as she took the lead, the others also made a quick decision, loading the trucks one by one, carrying the sacks, and seeing that they were about to leave.
Zhang Youfang couldn't sit still, slapped the table and shouted: "You people, you really see the money, didn't you just say that you will sell me all the soybeans at three times the price?"
"Uncle Zhang, don't worry, if you can pack it, I won't rob you, everyone is a relative, besides, I'm a junior, how can I let the elders rob it, don't be angry." ”
Xu Zhinian's voice was soft and weak, like a marshmallow, and every sentence sounded thoughtful, and his attitude was humble and polite.
But only those who have suffered her losses know that she is a knife in every word, and she is talking about her with a needle hidden in her smile.
Seeing Xu Zhinian pretending to be innocent again, Zhang Youfang was so angry that his liver hurt, and he didn't want to take advantage of her.
The new hatred and old hatred are counted together, and he will never allow Xu Zhinian to win again.
So, he slapped the table and shouted: "I'm also packing, isn't it just more miscellaneous grains?
At this time, Wang Fengqin still maintained a trace of sanity, pulled the sleeve of the oil mill, and said: "His father, you want to collect the grain of the whole village, how can our family have so much money?"
Zhang Youfang gritted his teeth: "Why not? It's just selling houses and land, I borrowed debts, and I also collected all this grain!"
Zhang Yujiao felt that what she said was too high-spirited, so she grabbed her father's arm and said, "Dad, I support you, anyway, our family has a place, and we have food hoarding, maybe we can make a lot of money next year." ”
Earn a fart!
Xu Zhinian couldn't help but laugh.
A bumper crop for three years, these three kinds of grain are in a state of oversaturation, and next year there will be a new crop of grain, with new grain, who will buy old grain?
Besides, Zhang Youfang is just an oil mill, and it is not a serious grain and oil store, the location is in the countryside, and every family has rations, who is idle and has nothing to do to buy from him?
If there is not so much demand, how can we talk about trading volume?
And their warehouse is their own broken warehouse, how can this kind of storage conditions be the same as the warehouse of other people's professional grain stores?
By next year, they might all grow hair!
Xu Zhinian understood everything in his heart, but his face looked very lost, he looked at Zhang Youfang with begging eyes, and said softly: "Uncle Zhang, don't force me so much, you see, I contracted this matter, and I told the manager of the Xiangyang store, if you take it all, how can I explain it? Looking back, in the eyes of the manager of the Xiangyang store, isn't I just a little girl who doesn't talk much? Maybe, because I messed up, my brother's marriage can't be negotiated......
The more Xu Zhinian spoke, the more aggrieved he became, and his eyes turned red.
But the more she is like this, the more proud Zhang Youfang becomes.
If he still had a trace of hesitation just now, then now, he wants to crush Xu Zhinian's belief that he is more firm than his belief that he is a pure master.
"Hey, doing business is doing business, and I'm not a living Lei Feng, why should I let you, I've already collected some of this grain in the brigade? ”
Xu Zhinian smacked twice aggrievedly, nodded and said, "Okay then... Anyway, it's all a family, and you say that I will receive the same. ”
Xu Zhinian turned around in a gloomy way, and at an angle where others couldn't see him, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
......
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Zhinian only received one-tenth of the original plan's grain, many of which were because of "sympathy".
Xu Zhinian secretly wrote down these friendships, and she also wrote down Zhang Youfang's hatred.
can't complete the task, which can make the people of the old Xu family anxious.
Especially Xu Zhiqiu, he was afraid that he would lose his trust in Li Xiangyang and affect his image in Li Xiangyang's heart, but at the same time, he felt sorry for his sister, so he didn't dare to say a word of reproach, for fear that his performance would put pressure on his sister.
The whole family was anxious, but they were all holding back, Xu Zhinian saw it in his eyes and warmed his heart.
On the morning of the sixth day of junior high school, she got up from the bed early and stretched her waist greatly.
"Today is the day to hand over the grain, eldest brother, you first take these things you have collected and go to the errand, tell Uncle Xu, give me two days, and I will continue to deliver grain to him tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. ”
"Ah, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, Baoya, don't talk big, let's admit our mistakes to Uncle Li directly, now that the grain in the village has gone to Zhang Youfang's house, where are you going to collect it?"
