Chapter 51

Although the Wang family has a soft temperament, he is more able to look at his eyes and get into trouble than his eldest brother.

This time, Lin Baoru went to a grocery store in the town that looked inconspicuous. It is said that it is not remarkable, but there are many people in and out, and there are many well-dressed women and daughters-in-law who come to buy things.

Although her pig pancreatic soap has been renamed Soap Bean, it is not much higher grade because it has not been packaged. She thought about it, but now she was able to win. Sell it first, and then make money.

As for why she chose the shop in front of her, it was naturally because she knew in her heart that when she went to the big counter, she was afraid that people would not look down on her objects. You can go to a small shop, which sells badly and is not good for continuous cooperation, only this is not big, not small, and there is a business but not a top-notch grocery store is the most suitable.

When she went in, she first asked a guy to buy a few pieces of window paper, thinking that the New Year would be soon, and she also bought two big red pieces of paper to go home and cut window flowers.

There is no shortage of things at home now, but oil lamps and iron pots are still needed.

It's just that when she asks about the oil lamp, it costs ten yuan, and a small iron pot costs thirty yuan. In her hand now, even the twenty-four wen paid by a few companies to buy firewood, it is only one hundred and twenty wen, so she still has to save some money. So after some hesitation, she only bought an iron pot.

I don't know if it's because they are dressed decently and cleanly today, so the guys who came forward to greet them were a lot more enthusiastic.

"I wonder if my brother has soap beans for sale?" Lin Baoru asked with a smile.

The guy who had just rolled up the window paper for her heard this, and said with some doubts: "I haven't heard of soap beans, I have been working in the grocery store for several years, and I heard the shopkeeper say that the big boss brought some bath beans when he came back from the capital, which is extremely rare." ”

When Lin Baoru heard him say this, the smile on her face deepened, "Soap beans are the same thing as bath beans, but the price is cheaper and easier to sell." Speaking of this, she also paused deliberately, and said as if selling guanzi, "Today, the soap beans sold in the West Market are selling crazy, and I wonder what our shop should have." ”

When the guy heard this, his mind turned quickly, and he asked with a smile on his face, "Can the girl tell me carefully?" ”

They are grocery stores, and naturally the rarer the goods, the better, and of course it would be best if they could sell as well as the girl said.

Lin Baoru didn't hold it anymore, took a piece of soap beans from the basket on his arm and handed it over, "This is what I just bought, if I really want to think about it, why don't I give it to you?" ”

That guy is not stupid, seeing that she actually gave the soap beans, he understands that this thing is probably sold by the sisters in front of him.

He couldn't help but look at Lin Baoru a few more times, he had done it for so many years, but he had never seen someone as bold as her. A girl who has not yet married dares to show herself so much.

But seeing that she bought window paper and iron pot first, the guy didn't want to give a cold face at this time.

"The shopkeeper is not here these days, it's better to be like this, if the girl is willing, she will leave the soap beans on the cabinet first, and when our shopkeeper comes back, I will help you hand them over." The young man smiled and said, "You also leave a name, if the shopkeeper thinks it can be done, let him find you." ”

Lin Baoru nodded, she hadn't thought about negotiating a deal once. Life is not a book, and it is not so much smooth sailing. Sensei said that this guy left a line in his words, that is, he refused her when he died, and Lin Baoru didn't feel unacceptable.

She hugged Xiaoshan, took Cairu and Caihe out of the grocery store, thought for a while, and then raised her feet and went to the restaurant where she had eaten last time.

Soap beans, if they take the lead and operate a little, they may not be able to make money. Since she felt that she had lost her temper with Mrs. Liu, she was naturally willing to ask her first if she had business.

At this time, the business of the restaurant was bustling, but the guys at the counter saw that they were all wearing new cotton clothes, and the basket was also bulging, and the one in the middle was carrying an iron pot. So he did not delay, but hurried up to meet him.

"Do the girls want to eat, or do you want to rest?"

Lin Baoru saw his face, so he asked, "Is your shopkeeper here?" ”

The guy saw that she spoke generously and squarely, without any twist, and guessed in his heart that it should be the maid in the Liu family's house, didn't he want to bring a letter to the shopkeeper? As soon as he thought about it, his attitude became more attentive, and he hurriedly led the person to the empty table at the counter, and said in a loud voice: "Wait a minute, I'll let someone call the shopkeeper." ”

The shopkeeper who is busy in the backyard is a little strange, Mrs. just came a few days ago, why hasn't it been three or five days, and let people come to deliver the message?

However, he didn't dare to delay, and after a few words of advice to the back kitchen, he hurried to the front. When he saw the person coming, he said a few words of ancestral blessing in one voice.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant is considered to have come halfway, but it is not as important as the shopkeeper Liu of Buzhuang. In this way, he can become a person that Mrs. Liu values, and he can be regarded as having some thoughts and vision. Before, when Mrs. Liu brought this person to dinner, she had many differences with this person, and he had also heard that this was the young lady chosen by Mrs. ......

Thinking of this relationship, he naturally didn't dare to scorn Lin Baoru.

"If the girl wants to eat, why don't you go to the private room?" The shopkeeper asked with a smile on his face.

Lin Baoru didn't hesitate when she saw the person who was talking about things, and said with a smile: "Don't bother the shopkeeper, I'm not here to eat, but to get rid of the shopkeeper." ”

The shopkeeper of the restaurant had a smile in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, "You just have to say, but if I can do it, I will definitely help." ”

When Lin Baoru heard this, she was relieved. She breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and handed the only soap bean wrapped in oiled paper to the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and said: "This is a gadget I made, the most can remove oil and blood, if you wash your hands and face every day, it can also make the skin smooth and white." ”

"Girl, this is what you want to ......" The shopkeeper of the restaurant was a little unsure of what she meant, and hesitated, "Do you want to give it to Mrs. or ......?"

"I also bothered the shopkeeper to help ask Mrs. Liu's family has a shop that needs to sell this item. If you don't use it, it doesn't matter, just think it's my intention to let Mrs. use it rarely. ”

Lin Baoru said it well, and he said which one of the left and right might also be said, but he was not embarrassed. So the shopkeeper of the restaurant didn't bother to answer, anyway, it was just a gesture, if it was done in front of Mrs. Yu, it would be considered a long face.

After leaving the restaurant, Lin Baoru was completely relieved. Thinking that the sale in the West Market today is also a success, if the things can be sent into the shop for sale later, then there should be a considerable amount of income in a short period of time.

As for how long it will last, she doesn't have much hope. Now that she can save some money and live a lively life, she will be satisfied. If she could, she thought about repairing the roof of the thatched hut before the summer rainy season came, and then buying the land of the dilapidated thatched hut where she now lives......

When she went back to look for the Wang family and Lin Mancang, Lin Baoru also took a few small ones to a grain store, gritted her teeth and bought five catties of white noodles. She thought that she had to eat meat dumplings at home during the New Year, so she was ruthless and went to buy two catties of fat meat and a bag of bones.

The stall owner of the butcher shop is also a sincere person, looking at Lin Baoru's young age, he not only gave enough weight, but even added a few more bones with meat in the end.

Thinking that there was no fresh vegetable at home, Lin Baoru discussed it with Cairu and bought a cabbage. When making dumplings, you can add them to the meat filling to eat.

In fact, every household in Taoxi Village grows cabbage, but all the ones planted by the Wang family have been received in the cellar of the old house. When the family was separated, these trivial things were not assigned to the second room, so now Lin Baoru can only buy them again.

Fortunately, at the moment, cabbage is considered a cheap vegetable, and the mother-in-law who set up the stall has not opened for a long time, so when Lin Baoru asked for the price, it was also a lot cheaper. A large cabbage that was not spoiled at all was only paid by Lin Baoru.

At this moment, she didn't cover the hot copper plate in her hand, and she went to more than half of it. However, her current mentality is stable, the living cannot be suffocated by urine, and people cannot be defeated by the poor. As long as they are thinking about it, they can sell vegetables and do crafts, and they can have a project.

This time, Lin Baoru can be regarded as taking a few small ones to the set. Sensei said that he bought two flower head ropes for Cairu and Caihe, and Xiaoshan also had an extra piece of maltose in his hand.

On the way, they also met a lot of people from the same village, and they also met Li Zheng and Li Zheng's daughter-in-law. Li Zheng had already heard that there was a capable girl who sold firewood in Taoxi Village, and she was muttering in her heart, but now when she saw her, she asked casually.

Lin Baoru said vaguely: "It's also my luck that I figured out the soap beans that my father mentioned before, and I was originally trying my luck to see if I could sell them, but I didn't expect many decent people in the town to come and buy them." As she spoke, she looked at Lizheng's daughter-in-law, "If you don't dislike it, I'll send you a few pieces when you go back, and you can try it too." ”

She said, showing a little embarrassed, "It's not a good object, it's just my mother's heart, and my aunt doesn't dare to refuse." When my family was short of food, I still remember my aunt's kindness to bud rice noodles......"

Cai Ru and Cai He stayed by their eldest sister's side, although they were no longer timid when facing Li Zheng, but they were still a little uncomfortable pursing their mouths. The two of them nodded and whispered, "We also remember that Uncle Li Zheng and his aunt were good to us." ”

Even if Li Zheng has a lot of calculations, he is also a man from a peasant family, and he is very satisfied with the well-behaved appearance of several children. He remembered that the old couple of the Lin family boasted about Lin Youzhi in the sky with the big house, and then listened to the few small sincere words in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
