Chapter 426: Becoming a Capitalist
He Xidong parked the car and went around to the fruit store at the entrance of the community to buy two boxes of cherries.
My parents have bought other fruits and are ready to take them to Hejiabu to eat. He had the impression that his sister liked to eat these cherries, and now he was also a person with a small treasury, and he waved two boxes of cherries without blinking his eyelashes.
"I guessed that your brothers and sisters might come to buy this when they come back, Aunt Fu specially left two boxes of good ones." The proprietress of the fruit shop smiled and took out two boxes of newly arrived cherries from the warehouse, opened the lid of the box and showed it to He Xidong, "Look, look, the same price, the best quality, what's up?" Aunt Fu is kind, right? ”
He Xidong gave her a thumbs up and paid the bill with a smile. Before leaving, he stuffed Aunt Fu's grandson with a New Year's bag: "It's not much, it's auspicious." ”
"The top students of Beijing University are different." Aunt Fu quipped, picked up her grandson and asked him to say thank you.
The little fat pier narrowed his eyes, revealing two baby teeth, and shouted crisply, "Thank you, uncle." ”
He Xidong shuddered and corrected, "Why do you shout uncle?" Just call my brother, how old my uncle is, my brother is still young! After speaking, he pinched the little chubby face and carried two boxes of cherries to flash people.
The proprietress of the fruit shop hugged her bewildered grandson and laughed heartily behind her. As for the New Year's bag for his grandson, when it opens in the future, it will be the same for Lao He's family to get off to a good start. It's a neighbor and a friend, and it's a coming-and-going.
After such a delay, when he got home, he happened to hear his father talking about the causes and consequences of how Lin Shuigen's daughter would cooperate (hook up) with the person in charge of the wood art counter, and his precious sister's expression. It can only be described in one word: embarrassment.
"Poof......
He Xidong couldn't help laughing.
"Brother, are you back?" Only then did He Wei see his brother standing at the entrance, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the two boxes in his hand, so that it was convenient for him to change his shoes. "What did you buy?"
"Cheerilee. Don't you like to eat? Yuanyuan definitely likes it too. During the Chinese New Year, the fruit shop in Hejiabu didn't know if it could be opened, so I simply bought it and brought it. ”
At this time, He's mother poked her head out of the kitchen and waved at her son with a spatula: "What kind of cherries to buy, that thing is so expensive, and the taste is like that, it is better to eat apples." This box is exchanged for apples, and it can eat dozens of catties. Oops my oil pan ......"
He Mu interjected, and then turned back to the stove to stir-fry.
The brother and sister exchanged glances with a stifled smile. Quietly put the two boxes in the pile of New Year's goods that Ming'er was going to pull to Hejiabu. Anyway, my mother is chattering, and she won't force them to go back.
"Dad, go on." He Wei helped her brother put the fruit away and sat back on the sofa to listen.
Father He was drinking tea. was urged by his daughter. I almost choked. Originally, it was quite smooth, but even he didn't expect that he still had the potential to be a storyteller, but he was interrupted by his son and daughter-in-law, and his train of thought was interrupted, and he didn't know how to continue.
It was still He Xidong who rolled up his sleeves and came out of the storage room with a big mango. He took four small bowls and four forks from the kitchen and sat down in front of the coffee table. After peeling the skin, he cut the flesh into small pieces into small bowls, and at the same time took over the conversation and said: "Later, those two people were embarrassed and used our shop as a raft to develop their own business." Zhu Jitao contracted the counter for lack of funds, and the Lin family tightened their belts and took out their savings to pay for the ......"
"The Lin family is not afraid of meat buns and dogs, and there is no return." Yuanyuan was called out by He Wei to eat fruit, listened to a few words, and interjected to ask.
He Xidong sneered: "They are shrewd, of course it is risky to lend money to irrelevant people, but it will be okay to lend it to their own people?" Before borrowing money, Lin Jing's marriage was completed, and the New Year's wedding wine was opened. Zhu Jitao also promised that the order of the counter would only accept Lin Ji in the future, so he said that he was embarrassed. He Xidong despised the Lin family's approach to the extreme.
Although the antecedent was that Lin Jing misunderstood her parents, since she had doubts, why didn't she ask clearly? Isn't it shameless to rob people and business behind your back?
Of course, the more shameless one is the eldest cousin Zhang Yan. In this matter, she is really "indispensable".
At that time, in the Lin family, my mother was scolded viciously by Lin Jing, accusing her of breaking up other people's marriages in order to fulfill the happiness of her niece, and she would definitely not die well in the future...... I was immediately stunned, and when I figured out the situation, I was trembling with anger.
Fortunately, he brought his mobile phone, and while comforting his parents, who were so angry that their faces turned pale, he dialed the phone to Meilongqiao's aunt's house.
It happened to be Zhang Yan who answered the phone, yawning and looking like she had just gotten up. He turned on the speakerphone so that the Lin family could hear it. Sure enough, as soon as she asked a few words, Zhang Yan scolded angrily: "She dares to slap my husband, what's wrong with me lying to her for a few words?" She has the ability to come to me to settle accounts! And your mother and my second aunt, who always tell my mother all kinds of bad things about my husband, I really hate her! She's your mom and not my mom, what's so wide to do! What my husband has done before, he told me, and I forgave him, anyway, I just like him! Love him as a person! I'm not as superficial as you, I have conditions and conditions at every turn, what's wrong with bad conditions? What's wrong with making mistakes before? What happened to being in jail? If you really like someone and love someone, shouldn't you tolerate it? ……”
Get! There is no need to explain now, the Lin family also knows the truth.
Lin Jing covered her mouth in shock and anger, and finally made sense and apologized to her parents for this incident. The business that can be robbed can't come back, and in terms of the counter, Zhu Jitao went to the headquarters to sign the contracting agreement because he raised all the funds.
"This is a whole thing, it's really ......" Lin Shuigen's daughter-in-law Yao Meifang stood up with a smile and said: "Originally, if Xiao Zhu was here, the three of us could sit down and discuss it well, but Xiao Zhu flew to Kyoto, his hometown was in the north, and he went home directly to decorate the wedding room after signing the agreement, and he had to wait for the Lantern Festival at least when he came back." During this period, the supply at the counter can't be stopped, even if we break the contract, you see......"
Lin Jing almost cried, and also said: "I'm sorry, Uncle and Aunt He, it's all because I didn't figure out the truth, but now that the contract has come into effect, and my family's pomp and circumstance have been rolled out, the masters and apprentices below are going to come to work in the New Year, can you just forget it?" Oh. I'm referring to the counter business, the online store I turned around and asked people to change the page, and it was exactly the same as the design of your store before. It's also because I have anger in my heart...... Now that it's all clear, I'm not such an unreasonable person, our two families will go together in the future, and we will have to mention each other in the future, and please don't take Uncle He and Aunt He to heart. ”
is worthy of being a salesman, what he said makes sense.
He Xidong raised his eyebrows lightly. Try not to let the emotions of disdain leak out.
"And then you came back? That's too cheap for them too! After listening to this, Yuan Yuan jumped to his feet and shouted in his special voice during his developmental period: "Is it reasonable to rob people of business?" Say sorry and you're all right? Isn't it a head that grows above their necks, but a winter melon? What a strange idea! As they wanted, everybody ran to be robbers. If you get it, it's your own, and if you get caught, you can say sorry, you don't have to be punished, and you don't have to return what you stolen......"
He Wei handed him a tissue. Motioned for him to wipe his mouth. A personable young man. The corners of the mouth are stained with yellow mango stains and fried hair there, this image, tsk!
"Sister, aren't you angry?" Yuanyuan was suppressed by a tissue and died down.
"What's the use of being angry? There are many injustices in this world. He sat down on the sofa, rubbed the young man's head with a smile, and explained, "And the business of the counter." Even if they come back, we don't want it anymore. Let's remember. In the future, I will change to the high-end route, and I will not take on the work of small profits and quick turnover, which will save my father from being busy all day long, which is too bad for health. And who says that less business necessarily means less profit? Didn't the uncle call and say that there were many big bosses in Hejiabu who asked for a full set of handmade imitation furniture from the former dynasty? That's a full set in a big villa, like this kind of work, we can take a few orders a year, how can we have time to deal with counter orders. ”
"But how did I hear that your uncle asked you to take the goods at a guaranteed price, and there is not much left after the cost and salary, right? Maybe it's less than the counter order......" Yuan Yuan muttered halfway, glanced at He Wei cautiously, and quickly retracted his neck and stuck out his tongue at He Wei.
I didn't think too much about it when I said it, but after I finished speaking, I realized that his sister's uncle was not his sister's father's brother, and he said that his brother's was not in front of his brother...... Hiss! It's a two!
He Wei sneered, "You heard this last time my mother and godmother talked about this, right?" Obedient and not whole. ”
"What do you mean?" Yuanyuan was at a loss, what did he miss?
Father He said with a smile on the side: "Before the imitation of the furniture was launched, I made an appointment with your uncle, this kind of work is because the process is long, not according to the guaranteed price, but your uncle takes the commission, sells a piece of pick-up, a full set of custom-made, and then adds 10% of the net profit on the basis of the commission to him as a bonus after recovering all the payment." ”
"Whoosh!" Yuan Yuan slapped his forehead in a trance.
"This tone must come out, but don't worry, let's do our own things first. The carving master was pulled away by them, and the rest of Master Liu and Master Cao were four, Master Liu and his two sons followed us sincerely, Master Cao, I think eighty percent is too old to be too lazy to move. But it's good for Ken'an to settle down and stay in our house. But Dad, let's look for two more when the New Year begins, and it should be the class that takes over Master Liu and Master Cao, after all, they are old, and no matter how good their skills are, they won't be able to do it for a few years. ”
Father He nodded and said: "I have thought about this matter a long time ago, and Master Liu also gave me an idea, saying that it is the beginning of spring, in the name of recruiting apprentices, select a few young and active people to come to the factory to work, and find a few successors from it." I originally thought that those three were still young, so they wouldn't be out of gear now, who knows......"
"If you can be poached by the Lin family, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not be poached by other peers in the future, so this kind of person is better for us to leave early than late. This time it will be a test. While comforting his father, He Xidong distributed four small bowls of mango pulp to the family, and the share given to He Mu's mother was sent to the kitchen. Holding the mango core and gnawing slowly, he continued:
Lin Jing played a good abacus, not only robbed the business, but also fished the turtle son-in-law, but she didn't want to think about how high the maintenance cost would be if she grabbed this business. Now it is no more than three years ago, when the labor and timber have risen a year, and according to the samples and prices they supply to the counter, I don't think even the master's salary at the bottom may not be paid in full. Even if you are mentally prepared not to make money or even lose money in the first few months, what about the future? You can't work day jobs for the counter every day, right? Either the price will be raised, or the working hours will be reduced, and the quality will be reduced, but either way, it will touch the interests of the counter. If you want to put it aside, Zhu Jitao will pass with one eye closed, but now, he has contracted a counter, and the loss of the interests of the counter is equivalent to the damage to his interests, but anyone who has a little brain will not let the Lin family do this. In short, we should pay for the show. ”
After speaking, I was about to draw a tissue to wipe my hands, and saw the pearl friend lying on the upper of his sister's warm slippers, leaning his neck and eating mangoes curiously. He Xidong smiled evilly, pulled some flesh sticking to the core, and fed it to eat. The little guy rolled his tongue and rolled the flesh into his mouth, and in the next second, the whole dog's face turned into a sour ball, making everyone laugh.
He Wei took it from the upper of her shoe into her arms, nodded the tip of its little nose, and said, "Have you been taught a lesson?" Not everything can be eaten. ”
The little guy "wooed" twice, shrunk into He Wei's arms and refused to come down.
"Lustful dog! Walk! My brother will take you to drink water. Yuan Yuan laughed and lifted it up.
The little guy looked reluctant, and was finally dragged to the study by Yuanyuan to play.
He Wei's family laughed again.
Compared with the relaxation and happiness of the He family, the atmosphere of the Lin family at the moment is so depressed that it does not look like there are still four days before the New Year.
Lin Shuigen squatted in the corner of the wall and smoked a stuffy cigarette for a long time before he spoke: "This matter, our family is not authentic. Even if you misunderstand your Uncle He and Aunt He at the beginning, how can it be enough to apologize with your mouth, and the business at the counter is ......"
"Dad!" Lin Jing was not happy, and argued in a sharp voice: "Why do you say that? I didn't do this for the sake of my family, I wanted my family to earn more money so that I could get a bigger house in the future...... Look at our house now, three people are squeezed into 30 square meters, which is not as big as a living room in He Wei's house. After the year, if someone from Jitao's house came, he wouldn't even be able to move out a decent room to entertain guests. It's also carpentry, why do you and your mother have to work for them? And they are profiting from the fruits of your hard work? This is the exploitation of the working people by the capitalists! Besides, didn't He Ji also make a fortune from a small shop? At that time, when they started their family, I heard Uncle He say that it was only tens of thousands of yuan, Dad, you have a little backbone, okay? Don't always think that He Ji gives you this salary and thinks it's a lot, people sell the work you do, and earn several times your hard-earned money, do you know? (To be continued.) )
