Chapter 114: Befriending

After Jiang County's help, there were so many families in Dafeng Village who showed kindness to them, and when they saw them coming back, they took the initiative to say hello: "Brother Gu, the stall is back, how is the business going today, it's quite prosperous, right?" ”

The one who asked was He Laoguo, who lived in the back village.

He Laoguo is sixty this year, with five sons and thirteen grandchildren in the family, and he is very prosperous, but he is poor, and now the whole family is still crowded in a dirt yard, living on the family's fifteen acres of land.

He dreamed of making his family rich, and when he saw that Qin Gu Luotian's tofu business was doing well, he wanted to have a good relationship with them. Thinking that Qin Gu and Luo Tian's family would be able to think of his family if they asked someone to help.

As for the revenge of the Lu family?

Bah!

His family is about to be unable to open the pot, and he is still afraid of the Lu family's revenge?

The third grandfather smiled: "It's okay, it's about the same as usual." ”

The third grandfather did not clearly say how the family's business was, but said: "Brother He, our family is collecting soybeans, three cents a catty, if your family wants to sell soybeans, you can sell them to our family, and collect as much as you want." ”

He Laoguo was shocked, he was originally squatting, he couldn't help but stand up and asked, "What Brother Gu said is true?" Do you collect soybeans for a pound? Don't lower prices? ”

Eh, these three cents a pound of soybeans is the price of the grain store's shipment, they sold it to the grain store, two pounds are only three dollars, and the price given by the Gu family is twice as high.

The third grandfather smiled: "Don't lower the price." ”

When He Laoguo got the exact words, he couldn't sit still anymore, and hurriedly said: "Brother Gu waits, I'll get soybeans for your house." ”

He Laoguo hurriedly entered his yard and shouted: "Da Miao, two Miao, three Miao, you rabbit cubs, hurry up and bring the soybeans at home to Lao Tzu and send them to your Uncle Gu's house." ”

The third grandfather and the others continued to walk towards the old house at the end of the village, and when they got home, they told the big guy about harvesting soybeans.

Chen was cooking spices at Gu Jinli's house, and knew that the price of soybeans in the grain store had risen, so he was so angry that he scolded the Tao shopkeeper: "I have long seen that it is not a good thing, looking like a dog, but in fact he is a profiteer with a rotten heart, specializing in eating the flesh and blood of our farmers, I bah, curse him to give birth to a son is not **, and giving birth to a daughter is a little woman's life!" ”

After scolding, he said: "It's not bad for us to collect beans ourselves, and we can also keep the price down." ”

She knew that the grain store only collected soybeans for two catties and three pennies.

The third grandfather said: "We are three cents a pound, and we can't lower the price, but we must be optimistic when we harvest beans, and we can't accept moldy or moth-eaten bad beans." ”

When Chen heard that he couldn't lower the price, he immediately lost interest, this can't lower the price, what else does she earn?

The third grandmother was also very angry when they heard about the price increase of soybeans in the grain store, but looking at the four hundred catties of soybeans that Luo's father Qin Sanlang picked up, they felt that this harvest of beans was not bad, at least they picked the things, and they had the final say on the price, so they no longer worried.

The third grandfather rested for a while, and He Laoguo took his eldest son, second son, and third son to the Gu family with soybeans.

He Laoguo went to the village chief's house to borrow a big scale, and at this moment he hugged the big praise and said: "Brother Gu, we sent the soybeans, how many catties do you weigh?" ”

The third grandfather said, "Let's take a look at the beans first." ”

"It should be, it should be, Brother Gu, take a look."

The third grandfather and Father Luo checked the three dan soybeans of He Laoguo's house, and saw that the soybeans were very dry, not moldy, and not eaten by insects, so they nodded and said, "The beans are good, let's call the beans." ”

He Laoguo hurriedly asked his three sons to weigh soybeans in big names.

"Third Uncle Gu, a total of three hundred and twenty-six catties." He Laoguo's eldest son, He Damiao, said.

After the third grandfather heard the weight, he counted the money and counted nine hundred and seventy-eight dollars for He Laoguo: "Here, this is bean money." ”

He Laoguo took the money excitedly, and his eyes almost reddened: "I have grown soybeans all my life, and this price is the best sale." Brother Gu rest assured, in the future, my beans will be sold to you, if your family doesn't want it, I will sell it to others. ”

No matter what other families think of Qin Gu Luotian's family, He Laoguo thinks that these families have real skills, which one of them can get acquainted with the county lieutenant and make friends with the county lieutenant's son-in-law?

Which escaper can make a living? Or is it this freshly lucrative livelihood?

He Laoguo had the heart to make friends with Qin Gu Luotian's family, so he said to the third grandfather: "Brother Gu, if your family collects beans, you have to pay attention to He Laosi and He Daqian, they are all famous shabby of the old He family, but you can't let them trap you." ”

The third grandfather also had the heart to make friends with an honest person like He Laoguo, so he asked the third grandmother to take out a plate of bean dregs cake and distribute it to He Laoguo and his three sons.

He Laoguo is an interesting person, and after reminding him of the reminders, he took the silver money, took his three sons, and went home happily.

Before leaving, he also said to the third grandfather: "Brother Gu, if your family needs to use a big name, you can go to He Sixteen's house to rent it, He Sixteen's family has a big name, as long as you give a penny, you can use it once." ”

Village Chief He's family doesn't need money, but now I don't know what Village Chief He's attitude is, whether he will help the Gu family, so it's better to spend some money and rent it with He Sixteen's family.

"Eh, I know, thank you Brother He for reminding me." After the third grandfather sent He Laoguo's family away, he stayed at home and waited to harvest the beans.

Gu Jinli took over from Gu Dashan and Gu Jinan to make tofu and let them go to the wasteland to work.

Before dark, there was another family in the village who came to sell soybeans, it was He Laoguo's younger brother's family, this family was also poor, sold a total of 400 catties of soybeans, took 1200 or 200 yuan, and went home happily.

In less than half a day, they collected 1,000 catties of soybeans.

Because of the soybeans harvest, after counting the money at night, the third grandfather did not divide the money, but said: "There are still people to sell soybeans tomorrow, and the money will not be divided first, so I have to stay and collect soybeans." ”

Chen's flesh hurt very much: "Uncle San, we have already collected 1,000 catties of soybeans today, which is already enough, don't collect it tomorrow, we can't use up so much." ”

Gu Jinli said: "This soybean must be harvested, and it must be collected in large quantities, and I am not afraid to collect tens of thousands of catties." ”

She explained: "Why does the shopkeeper dare to raise the price for us? That's relying on his grain store in the whole town, he monopolized the supply of soybeans, we didn't buy soybeans from him today, he was not in a hurry, but if he knew that after we collected soybeans, he would definitely be in a hurry, and then he would take action, use his connections, and start to collect a large number of soybeans. ”

"This Qingfu Town is so big, soybeans are limited, and we can't collect soybeans if we want to at that time, so we have to take advantage of the fact that the Tao shopkeeper hasn't made a move, let's collect more soybeans, so that we can win him."

This matter is just the beginning, and the shopkeeper Tao must have a follow-up move.

Several adults were explained, and although the Chen family did not get the money tonight, they still agreed.

Aunt Tian was timid, and asked Gu Jinli worriedly: "We are from outside, if the shopkeeper Tao encourages the people in Qingfu Town not to sell our soybeans, what should we do?" ”

Gu Jinli said: "There are no soybeans in Qingfu Town, we can go to the two nearby towns to collect them, if not, we can go to the county seat to buy them, this soybean is not a precious thing, this one is not sold, there are always other houses to sell." ”

In short, this is not a problem, and the shopkeeper feels that he is coaxing and wants to bully them.
