Chapter 9: A lot of money (the first two more ask for recommendation votes)
The weather after the snow was unusually cold, and almost no one was frozen outside.
Walking around the village, there are only three brick houses, and there are flatbed trucks in the yards, and the whole body is made of wood, only the axles and wheels are iron and rubber.
Lin Mo knocked on the door of the first brick house.
"Go, go, borrow a quilt and don't have it." A bearded man who looked like he was about fifty years old opened the door and said impatiently.
Seeing the young man in front of him, he was not from the village, "What are you doing this young man, what are you running blindly on a snowy day?" ”
Lin Mo bent down and nodded, got straight to the point, and said, "Uncle, I want to rent your flatbed truck for it, you can tell me a price." ”
The bearded man looked at the two quilts on Lin Mo's back, and his eyes suddenly lit up, what is the most valuable thing to say in this weather now, that is, warm quilts, those who have come to his home to borrow quilts in the past two days have been sent out several times by himself.
"You're renting a flatbed to transport this quilt to town?" The bearded man asked.
Lin Mo smiled slightly, knowing that he couldn't hide it from him so obviously, after all, those who could live in a brick house in the village were a bit brainy.
"Exactly."
"Young man, look, there is no such thing as a lease in this world, and I will definitely not worry about it if I give it less, in case you don't go back, right, otherwise I will buy the bedding on your back, and it will save you from going to town." The bearded man said.
"How much."
"I won't cheat you, a quilt is 20 yuan, although it is a little cheaper than the town, but it saves you from running to the town, it takes more than ten kilometers to go to the town from here, and you will be tired to death by carrying it yourself, and no matter which one you ask, it is impossible to rent a flat car, and it is unrealistic to buy it."
The bearded man and Lin Mo talked eloquently, and they felt that they were too good.
"I'll buy it."
"What?"
"I said I'll buy the flatbed."
"Young man, you just have two quilts, and you can buy a flatbed truck and don't die."
"Uh-oh."
The beard was covered at the time, "oh oh" what the hell.
However, this bearded man reminded himself that since he couldn't rent it, it was better to buy it directly, and he didn't just have these two quilts.
"How much does it cost to buy your flatbed?" Lin Mo asked.
"40 yuan, no bargaining."
"Uh-oh."
Lin Mo turned around and left after speaking, this kind of flatbed truck has seen a lot on the construction site, the two of them grunted 10 axles, 10 wooden boards plus processing fees, the cost is less than 20 yuan, and the net profit of 5 yuan is a huge profit in the village and town, this bearded man actually said the price of 40, it is really pork blindfolded.
It is said that Murakami can't afford to eat pork either.
"Don't go, young man, it's a long way from town, and it's not easy for you to count you 35."
"Slow down, slow down, for the sake of our fate, I'll give you 30."
"25, give you 25, 25 ah you."
......
Lin Mo strode forward, he had already left the village, now his physical strength was not bad, there was no problem at all with the two quilts to carry to the town, and when the time came, just buy axles and wheels in the town, because there are still discarded wooden slabs in the living area, and when the time comes, it will be fine.
After noon, Lin Mo had already arrived in the town, and the township market was a simple collection of grocery stores and vegetable markets.
There are only two grocery stores in the whole market town, and compared to the countryside, there are still a few people walking around on the roads of the market town, and there are more than a dozen brick houses.
Lin Mo first entered a grocery store, because the wooden board in front of the grocery store said that the futon was 70 yuan, which was 20 yuan higher than the usual price, which was obviously deliberately raising the price by taking advantage of the cold, and the weather could really freeze people to death.
The owner of the grocery store sat on the counter, drank boiling water, glanced at Lin Mo, and said, "My Lao Wang's grocery store has a fair price, I don't know what you want to buy, young man." ”
"How much does these two bedding recycle." Lin Mo pressed the quilt onto the counter.
Lao Wang took out a ruler and picked up the quilt brought by Lin Mo, and sighed twice, "This quilt is very old, give you 30." ”
Lin Mo smiled at the owner of the grocery store, "I see that the bedding sold in your shop is not new, the boss is really a good businessman." ”
Lao Wang laughed, "Good scolding." ”
"Gone." Lin Mo hugged the futon on the cabinet and prepared to go to the second grocery store.
"Wait, I like to do business with smart people like you, give you 40, and the price on the other side is also this price, I can't spoil the market." Lao Wang said.
"Okay, okay, I'll talk about it after I finish reading, if it's really this price, I'll come back."
Lin Mo left without looking back, shopping around, listening to him alone, even if he said it would not change Lin Mo's plan.
Another grocery store "Old Money Grocery Store"
Entering the store, the layout is similar to the other side, but what puzzles Lin Mo is that there is no quilt in this store.
The boss was still sitting on the counter, fiddling with the abacus in his hand, with a mustache and a felt hat, and a little fat man next to him who looked to be twelve or thirteen years old, eating peanuts.
The owner of the grocery store is also a celebrity in the town, the owner of this grocery store has a lot of money, lost his wife at an early age, and has been alone with his son who is a little mentally imperfect.
When the boss saw Lin Mo coming in, he hurriedly greeted him, his smiling face was about to squeeze out his eyes, and he grabbed a handful of peanuts, and the little fat man looked at it with a resentful face...
"Hello, hello, I'm the owner of the old money grocery store, I have a lot of money, I don't know what you need, little brother." Qian Duoduo said and stuffed the peanuts into Lin Mo's hand.
'That's a lot of money, it's a good name.' ’
Lin Mo responded politely, "There is a lot of money, the boss has a lot of money, that is your son." ”
"Little brother has good eyesight, that's my son Qian Teduo." It's a lot of money, ha.
"Huh... Ha... Ha... Chant do. Lin Mo's smile gradually stiffened, and he thought, 'Then your grandson doesn't have to be called a money thief.'
"By the way, Boss Qian, you see how much my two futons are worth." Lin Mo asked.
"You should have been to the other side, with my understanding of Lao Wang, he will open until 40." Qian Duoduo smoothed his mustache with his thumb.
"And how much can you drive?"
"It's already the limit for me to drive 40, and when I get to the other side, the one surnamed Wang may be able to add a little." Qian Haoduo said.
"Oh? There are also those who do business and send customers to other people's homes. "It's a lot of money, but it piqued my interest.
Qian Duoduo sighed, and his face suddenly became a little heavy, "You see I don't have a quilt in this shop, because I sell it for only 50 yuan, like yours, these two quilts are already a little old, and I will sell them for 42 or 43, I don't make money for quilts, I can freeze to death one less in this era, who would have thought that this year is unusually cold, all the quilts in the shop are sold out, and I don't know when the goods will be available next time, but it is cheaper than the black-hearted dog on the opposite side." ”
