Early the next morning, Mom and Dad came out, one with two panda eyes. I don't know when the two of them discussed it last night.

"How's it going, Mom and Dad?" Seeing this expression, I estimated in my heart that things had become a ** success.

"Well, I discussed it with your mother last night, and I think this method is okay, insurance, and the investment is not large, or I will try it first." The old man replied with a pair of panda eyes.

"Then what are we going to do first, contact the goods first or go to Uncle Li to contact the loan first?" Zhang Lan asked.

"Let's contact the fruit first, and then go to your Uncle Li's in the evening to contact the loan." Zhang Zongjun sighed. It can be seen that the old man is also a little uneasy in his heart, and a little embarrassed, too, in the countryside in the eighties, after all, this matter is bold enough for anyone, Zhang Lan pondered in his heart, that is, his father is still young, less than 27 years old, he has not lost the momentum of young people, and he has more or less gone to high school, and he can be regarded as a highly educated and knowledgeable person in a place like the countryside.

"Okay, I'll go with you, whose house should we go to first? What kind of fruit are we going to ship this time? Zhang Lan asked.

"Let's go to Li Mingjiang first, his Jin Shuai and red banana are almost time to go."

Li Mingjiang is a good friend of his father, and he is the third uncle of Zhang Lan's newly married brother-in-law, this relationship has circled several times and made Zhang Lan dizzy, if it is calculated according to the efficiency, Zhang Lan should call Li Mingjiang the third grandfather, but according to the relationship that his father's side can't beat, this guy is his third uncle, and he didn't understand what was going on for a long time, and finally he was in a big idea of not suffering a loss - is it impossible to call his future cousin uncle and aunt? - Zhang Lan kept calling him uncle. He has some apple orchards at home, but they can't always sell for a good price.

"That's okay, you two will go to Li Mingjiang in a while, I'll go to the town to buy a scale and come back, you can't do business without a scale." Mom said.

"Well, go early and come back early, be careful on the road." Dad carefully advised.

"Got it, don't worry, you can't lose such a big person."

When he came to Li Mingjiang's orchard, Zhang Lan greeted him from afar: "Uncle Li is good." ”

"Okay," this guy looked at the orchard all day long, and he didn't see a person for a long time, not even a person to speak, and he was idle every day in a panic, and he couldn't see a person, and smiled happily, "Yo, isn't this our little genius, why do you have time to come to the uncle's orchard to play today?" ”

"Uncle, today my father came to discuss something with you, and I will come to rub some apples to eat by the way." Zhang Lan replied obediently.

"Hehe, this kid, if you want to eat apples, you can eat them, it's all your own things, you're welcome." Li Mingjiang replied with a smile.

"Mingjiang, I want to discuss something with you." Dad watched the big and young people playing lively, and quickly spoke.

"Oh, what's the matter? Zongjun, you say, what are you polite to come here? ”

"Well, well, I'd like to buy some apples from you." Zhang Zongjun blushed and had a thick neck, a little embarrassed to speak.

"What do you mean by that?" Li Mingjiang was obviously a little unhappy, "What do we have to do with it, if you want to eat some apples, just pick them directly, they are all your own things, and you still have to give money, isn't this burying people?" ”

"Big brother, don't worry, listen to me." Dad is also anxious, you see this whole thing.

"Okay, then let me hear what you have to say?" Li Mingjiang is still a little unhappy.

"That's the case, I want to transport some fruit out to sell, but I don't have any money for this acceptance, I want to get some apples from you first, and I'll give you the money when I come back after I finish selling." Zhang Zongjun felt a little embarrassed, and it seemed a little unreasonable to pull away other people's apples before the money was given.

"Come on, come on, sit down first, let's sit down and smoke a cigarette first, and talk slowly." Li Mingjiang didn't answer directly, but took out a few small stools from the small house watching the orchard, "Who gave you the idea of this." ”

"It's not our unlucky kid." Zhang Zongjun smiled bitterly and repeated last night's events as they were.

"I can't see it, this kid of yours is really smart enough." Li Mingjiang patted Zhang Lan's head and smiled, "Okay, this thing is easy to do, at first I was worried that you were going the wrong way, but since this is the case, I am relieved." You don't have to worry about money, you can give it when you have it, and I'm not in a hurry to spend it. ”

"That's embarrassing!" Zhang Zongjun was a little anxious, "My brother still has to settle the account, so let's go, I don't know what will happen when this trip is shipped out, if the business is good, I will give you 8 cents a catty, if it is not good, you will forgive your brother and give it to you at the price of 7 cents a catty last year, what do you think?" ”

"Don't do this, isn't this what I am taking advantage of?" Li Mingjiang was a little unhappy, "There was a guy who gave me 6 points and 5 points yesterday, if you want it, I can give it to you at this price." ”

"Big brother, what are you talking about, can we still make ourselves suffer, I am grateful if you help me like this, just do what I say, and then we brothers will be far away." Dad was also a little anxious, "That's it, big brother, can you calculate how many apples you can pick in this orchard now?" ”

"Well, then let's do it first", Li Mingjiang saw that Monarch Zhang Zong's mind had been decided, so he agreed, and thought about it a little, "Last year, I went down 12,000 catties, and this year I managed better than last year, and it is estimated that I can get 13,000 catties." ”

"13,000 catties," Zhang Zongjun hesitated, "Big brother, can you call the orchards in front of you too, let's discuss and get together 20,000 catties?" ”

"Okay, this is easy to do, this is a good thing" Li Mingjiang laughed heartily, "You wait a while, I'll call them." As he spoke, he headed for the other orchards.

"Son, isn't the 20,000 catties you just said on the road a bit much," Dad looked at Zhang Lan, and you hesitated a little.

"Dad, look, 20,000 catties is 10 tons, and they will be transported to Jinan, and there are millions of people in Jinan, not much," Zhang Lan replied.

"Yes. Hey, boy, I'm teaching you arithmetic pretty fast." Dad was happy again.

"That's, don't look at whose child I'm from." Zhang Lan slapped her father's ass without a trace.

"Well, that is." The old man was photographed very comfortably, and touched his shaved chin complacently, very proud that he gave birth to such a genius son.

After a while, Li Mingjiang came back with 4 people, and his father hurriedly stood up and hurriedly handed over the cigarettes, "Come on, brothers, smoke." ”

A few guys were not polite, they took the cigarette, lit the fire, swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog, looking like a pervert who had not seen a woman for several years, "This smoke is good," a few guys inhaled violently, "Good guy, Bailian's, where did you get it." ”

"Someone else gave it to me last time", Dad smiled, "If you like it, brothers, I still have a few boxes at home, and I will bring them to you next time, I don't smoke much anyway." ”

"That's a good feeling," the eyes of the one in the middle began to glow green, "This guy is much better than Daqianmen and Jinlu, then I'm welcome, don't forget next time." "This guy looks like a big smoker.

"Don't worry, I can't forget, you can take this box and smoke it first", he said and handed over the remaining half of the box of cigarettes in his hand.

"Thank you", the guy smiled happily, "You guys, no one is allowed to rob me." ”

"Hehe", several people laughed, "This guy is like this, he forgot his mother when he saw a good cigarette, you don't have to pay attention to him".

After laughing for a while, the smoker in the middle spoke, "Zongjun, Mingjiang told us about it on the road just now, this is a good thing to say, they are all from the villagers, if you don't help anyone, the four of us can give you an apple of about 100,000 catties, you don't have to worry about the money, just give it when you have it, we are not in a hurry." ”

"Okay, I thank you all here, I won't say anything else polite," Dad was a little excited, "Don't worry, even if I lose money this time, I will pay back everyone's money by smashing the pot and selling iron." ”

"What do you say, I don't know how to say an auspicious word when doing business", Li Mingjiang said, "Don't worry, I will give you all the apples in this orchard this year, rest assured, as long as I am here, your goods are indispensable." ”

"Hehe, it's not right," Dad was a little embarrassed, "Let's pick apples these days, I'll contact about the transportation, and on the day of departure, I'll invite everyone to drink." ”

"Interesting, don't worry, I'm indispensable when the time comes." Everyone laughed heartily, "Okay, leave the rest to us, you can get busy, it is estimated that it will be picked in two days, and I will inform you when the time comes." ”

"Okay," Dad was not pretentious, "then I'll go first, and we'll talk later." After saying that, he patted his ass and said hello and went home.

Seeing this, Zhang Lan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, or the simple and enthusiastic people in the countryside, which is like the city after the 90s, the relationship between people is indifferent to death, much more selfish, and less enthusiastic to help others, and in the end, even those who are righteous and brave are basically from the countryside.

When I got home, I just came back just in time for my mother to move the scale strapped to the back seat of the bicycle down.

"Wait, wait", Dad walked over quickly, "What's the hurry, can't you just move when I come back?" ”

"What's the matter? Do you want you to come back and move with me? Although my mother was ruthless, she had made room for my father to take a hand, and it was clear that she enjoyed her husband's relationship and thoughtfulness.

"How's it going?"

"It's implemented, 230,000 catties of apples." Dad smirked.

"Why are there so many?" Mom was shocked.

"Well, there are 130,000 catties in Mingjiang, and 100,000 catties in the orchards in front of him."

"Huh? Will it be a little more? "Mom was a little worried.

"No, a sheep is also herd, a flock of sheep is also herd, more is more."

"Well, that's fine, you just have an idea."

"In the evening, I will go to Li Yumin's to discuss the loan."

"Well, I'll cook early, then." Mom said and washed her hands and went to cook.

After dinner, my mother cleaned up the table, and my father said hello and went out with Zhang Lan.

"Son, you say, can this be done?" Halfway through, Dad thought about this business, and began to mumble in his heart again, unaware that he had regarded his one-and-a-half-year-old son as a little pillar of the family. It's no wonder, after all, whoever does business for the first time is hairy in their hearts, let alone people in the countryside.

"Dad, you see, now the country's policy has allowed some people to get rich first, which means that the state allows us to do this, and it is estimated that there will be more and more such things in a few years."

"Isn't this speculation?" The old man was still a little worried.

"Don't worry," Zhang Lan comforted her father, "How can this be regarded as speculation, isn't the country also transporting our fruits here to other places, the state can do this, and now that the policy is liberalized, of course private individuals can do the same." ”

"Oh, that's true when you think about it."

Zhang Lan couldn't help but slander in her heart: This world is really unfair, the state is called rational allocation of resources when doing business, and private business is called speculation; When the state digs up other people's graves, it is called investigation and research, and when private people dig other people's graves, it is called tomb robbery; The police uncle will immediately send you to the detention center and let you experience a 15-day tour of the detention center.

Fortunately, it got better and better, and a certain unscrupulous animal sighed in his heart.

After a while, it arrived. I pushed the door, and the courtyard door was pinned inside.

Dad shouted through the yard, "Is Yumin at home?" ”

"Who?" A female voice came from the room.

"I, Zhang Zongjun." Dad shouted through the courtyard gate.

Well, it's a bit of a love song across the mountain, but unfortunately the voice is far worse than Liu Sanjie, Zhang Lan thought evil in her heart, and she didn't care about being maliciously speculated that it was her father.

"At home, you wait a minute, I'll open the door for you." As she spoke, she heard footsteps in the courtyard, and then a young woman opened the courtyard door.

"Brother and sister, it's me." Dad greeted him warmly.

"Hehe, Brother Zhang is here, rare guests, please come in quickly." As he spoke, he walked into the house, looked at Zhang Lan who was held in Zhang Zongjun's arms, and smiled, "This is your genius son that day, our village has spread it all over the village, and it is a pity that our family is a boy, if it is a girl, we will give them a baby kiss." ”

"Then you and Yumin will have another girl, and then our two families will become relatives." Dad didn't show weakness and made jokes.

"No, just this kid is making a fuss, and if you want another one of these roofs, it will collapse." This one is not weak.

When he arrived at the door, Li Yumin greeted him warmly, "Rare guests, Brother Zhang rarely comes to my house, I usually go to your house." Come on, come on, get into the house. Saying that, he enthusiastically took Zhang Zongjun's hand and walked in, "Look at my eldest nephew, they are all so old, looking at the small body, I don't know that some people believe it at the age of three." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and beckoned, "Yuqin, quickly make tea for Brother Zhang." ”

"You're welcome", my father pushed again and again, "What's polite here, isn't it like going to your own home." ”

When they arrived at the house, the two sat down, and the tea was served, Li Yumin asked, "Brother Zhang, you rarely come to my house, is there anything wrong with this time?" ”

Dad was not polite, "There is something I want you to help with." ”

"Oh, what's the matter, tell me about it, I'll definitely help if I can." Li Yumin smiled.

"In that case, I want to borrow some money from you."

"This is easy to do," Li Yumin hurriedly added some tea to Zhang Zongjun, "You don't know, I still have the eldest half of the loan target given to me in our credit union, I am worried about this matter, you have done me a great favor." Say, how much? ”

"2000 bar", Dad took a sip of tea, "I plan to do some small business, but the capital is not enough, isn't this going to come to you for help." ”

"What kind of business, can you tell me about it?" Li Yumin was obviously a little curious.

"Hehe, I just want to transport some fruit out to sell, isn't there no way, the family uses money everywhere, you have to find a way to make money, the country did not allow it in the past few years, and now it seems that the policy has been liberalized, let's just do it, just support your family."

Li Yumin slapped his thigh violently, "Brother Zhang, you have a good idea, don't you know, the town government is also worried about so many fruits in our town, don't worry, there will be no problem, you can do it with confidence." It seemed a little difficult to say it, "That, Brother Zhang, I also have something I want to ask you to help with." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Zongjun was surprised, "How can I help you?" What's the matter, you say, our relationship, can I help if I can? ”

"Well, that's the case, Brother Zhang, can you borrow more?"

"Why? I did the math, 2000 is enough. ”

"This, he's like this, I still have a loan of 4,000 yuan for the task assigned to me by the credit union that has not been completed, and I was still worried about this before you came," Seeing Zhang Zongjun hesitate a little, he quickly added: "If you think you can, I can lend you the lowest interest rate allowed by the policy." ”

Zhang Zongjun was still hesitating, Zhang Lan hurriedly pulled his sleeve and motioned for his father to hurry up and agree. Hehe, the bank also has a time when it is begging for people in the back, and the banks in the previous life were all heifers riding motorcycles - cow X coaxed masters, which is as low as now begging for loans.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Zongjun nodded: "Okay, 4000 is 4000, but you have to give me the first point of interest." ”

Li Yumin was overjoyed, and hurriedly grabbed Zhang Zongjun's hand, and his excited voice trembled a little, "Thank you, Brother Zhang, otherwise I really don't know what to do, I haven't completed the task for two months in a row, if I don't meet the standard this month, the president should criticize me by name." Don't worry, I've assigned you this to do it beautifully. ”

Since this is already the case, Dad no longer hesitates, "Look at what you said, by the way, do you know anyone from the county transportation team, I plan to hire a car there." ”

"Yes, our president's brother-in-law is the captain of the county transportation team, this kid is good, I know him." He took a sip of water and asked, "When are you going?" ”

"Tomorrow."

"That's right, I'm going to the county for a meeting tomorrow, let's go together, I'll take you directly after the meeting."

"Okay, then it's decided, let's go together tomorrow. It's not too early, so let's go back first. ”

"Okay, then you should be careful on the road, I won't leave you behind."

"You're welcome."

On the way, my father asked Zhang Lan: "Obviously, it's enough for us to borrow 2,000, why did you let me borrow 4,000?" ”

"Dad, what a good opportunity to get closer to the bank, besides, even if you don't need to put the money at home, it's always better to be prepared. In the future, we will get bigger and deal with banks more often, and now we will have a good relationship with each other, right? ”

"Who taught you all this?" Zhang Zongjun is very strange, where did this son get so many strange ideas, why doesn't he look like a little kid who is more than a year old at all?

"Oh, you forgot I was a genius?"

"The genius of the fart shows that Lao Tzu is a good seed." There was a burst of smug laughter in the night.

Looking at his father, who was smiling very poorly, Zhang Lan wanted to go up and kick his feet hard, how much does it have to do with you, this is all caused by rebirth.
