Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Rich and the Poor
"Why haven't the children come yet?" Mother Xu asked a little anxiously, if those people had come at this time in normal times, but there was no one today, it would be a little strange.
"Maybe something is delayed!" Tang Shiyu frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
Her heart is also very unhappy, and if she doesn't come, she has to say in advance that she has made a lot more braised pork now than before. If she sells it, she can do it alone, but to clean up the large intestine, Xu's mother will definitely not be able to finish it alone.
She ordered 300 catties of meat from Butcher Chen every day, plus all the pigs from him to the water. There are also two other pork stalls whose pigs are covered by her.
Getting all of this done is a big project. She is going to sell things, leaving Mother Xu alone, and she doesn't know what it will be like to be tired!
The most important thing in doing business is integrity, and she can now tell Butcher Chen that the key is that they have prepared things. If she doesn't want it now, who can they sell this extra meat to?
She had already told them that she would tell them a day in advance if she didn't need to. People can't stand without trust, and she can't break their trust for such a small benefit.
"Could it be because you gave Sanzhuang yesterday that they ran away with the money?" It's no wonder that Xu's mother was suspicious, she just gave Han Sanzhuang an advance yesterday, but today all four of them disappeared, and anyone would think so.
"No, that little money won't make the four of them give up their jobs, they must have been delayed by something!" Tang Shiyu directly shook his head to deny this possibility, as long as they were not stupid, they would not run away with that money.
Besides, as long as she goes to the government to report the case, where can those people flee to? The most important thing is that she understands that Han Sanzhuang is not the kind of reckless person, and the other three are a little out of character, but they are more afraid of their fists.
"Why don't you send meat to Chen Dahe later and let him pull some back?" Mother Xu asked with some hesitation, she was afraid that the two of them would not be able to keep busy, and it would be a pity to spoil things again.
"No, it's a big deal that we work hard today, if we let him pull it back, I'm afraid the extra few hundred catties of meat will not be easy to sell." The problem lies with them, and they can't make Butcher Chen pay for them.
She knew that Butcher Chen's two sons would go to collect the pigs the first day, and they would start killing them in the early hours of the morning, and by this time, the pigs had already been killed.
And the other two just send pigs to the water for them, but once she doesn't want it, what if people are annoyed and don't supply it in the future?
"Okay, it's a big deal to work hard today!" Now she earns almost three or four taels of silver a day, and Xu's mother doesn't want to give up.
"Mother, I'm going to sell braised meat first, you work alone and take it easy, don't exhaust yourself! And me, I'll be back when I'm done selling. They had already packed four buckets of braised pork on the cart as they spoke, but she was not at ease and explained again.
She knows Xu's mother very well, and she can endure hardships and is not afraid of hardships. Besides, with so much work on the other party's body, I am afraid that the other party will not show it on his face, and he is anxious in his heart.
"Don't worry, I know!" Mother Xu's heart warmed, during this time, her eldest lady really regarded her as her biological mother, and she was always afraid that she would bump into her, in fact, how could she be so delicate.
But she thought so in her heart, but she wouldn't say it, this was a piece of filial piety to the child. The main reason is that she feels sorry for the other party and is too tired, and she has to take care of her every day because of her business.
"Mother, don't listen to me, in case you are tired, I still have to take care of you, and then our business will not be able to do it, so the gains outweigh the losses, you know?" Tang Shiyu said another sentence uneasily.
If she didn't say this, she was afraid that Mother Xu would disobey her, how many times had she seen it. Mother Xu fought with her in order to do more work, and while she lamented the other party's naivety, she also sighed at the other party's licking feelings.
"Alright, let's go! I nag so much every day, and I don't know that I think the identities of the two of us are interchangeable. Mother Xu glared at her coquettishly, she was poked in the heart by Tang Shiyu, and she was a little annoyed.
"I have to leave quickly" Tang Shiyu hung the small satchel on her body, and hurriedly pushed the car away. Usually at this time, she has already set up the stall, and today she is still at home.
"Brother Tang is here, we thought you wouldn't be here today!" Quite a few people stood in her old stall spot.
"I'm sorry! Ladies and gentlemen, there is a delay at home. "Her place was reserved by the people on the side, it should be her strong wrist the first few times, which made the small vendors on the whole street look at her with admiration, anyway, no one dares to occupy her place now.
Whether it's in the market or on the docks, even if she goes late, she will stay there well. Regardless of whether people were afraid of her methods or other reasons, she habitually thanked the vendors on the side.
No matter what the reason is that people leave the position to you, if you don't appreciate it, they will definitely not be happy. She's here to make money, not to offend people, anyway, saying two words of thanks can make them feel more comfortable without spending her money, why not!
"Brother Tang, you sell it to them first, there must be a lot of things waiting for them to be busy at home, anyway, I'm idle and fine, I'll be fine after a while." The person who spoke was the middle-aged lewd man who bought her pig kidney, known as He Yuanwai, and I heard that the family conditions were good.
He doesn't come every day, mainly because he is afraid that someone will see it when he buys this thing, so he has an extra heart. Buy a little more at once, put it in a bucket and drop it in your own well, you can eat it for a few more days without spoiling.
Not to mention that this pig kidney, as she said, the effect is really good, as for the good, everyone understands! I also heard that the doctors in the city said that there were really precious medicinal materials added to it, so he would be more at ease when he ate it.
"He Yuanwai is really a good person!" The other people who bought braised pork praised him when they heard him say this. In the eyes of the world, when a poor person and a rich person buy the same thing at the same time, they subconsciously think that the rich man must buy it first, even if it is at the same price.
This kind of psychology is nothing more than the fear of the poor for the rich, even if the latter will not do anything to the former, this fear seems to be engraved in the bones of the former.
In fact, in the final analysis, it is the inferiority of the poor, the rich have what the poor want desperately, but the poor can't get it, and over time it will form a kind of inferiority.
He Yuanwai said a few words modestly, but Tang Shiyu smiled heartily, but did not pierce the other party. No matter what his intentions were, as long as he was his customer, she would care about the other party's face. Besides, does it have anything to do with her whether people pretend to be forced or not?
