Chapter 96: Greed
In the guest house, Amy looked at the large pile of manure in front of her and was a little worried.
"You said that fertilizer is so hard to buy now, will someone come to rob us?"
Mingke counted the amount of fertilizer again, and after confirming that it was correct, he replied: "You don't have to worry about this, no one is so bold." ”
"What we should be worried about now is how to get this fertilizer to the train station tomorrow, because there are so many of them here and each bag is heavy, it is definitely not realistic to carry it by people."
Amy glanced at it, "Wouldn't it be better to find an ox cart and a few masters who can help?" I used to move - ahem, no, that's what I used to do when I was in Jiangcheng. ”
After completing the task of buying fertilizer, Amy was so happy that she almost told her about renting a house and moving to find a moving company.
But even though she changed her words in time, when she looked up again, she still found Mingke staring at her.
"What's wrong?"
Amy asked stiffly.
The corners of Mingke's mouth slanted, "Actually, I was curious yesterday about when and where you bought the brown sugar you gave to the salesman and that uncle, as well as those soaps." ”
"I ...... I bought it at the supply and marketing cooperatives before, but you were busy at that time and didn't see it. ”
Amy thought she was hiding it well, but she didn't expect Mingke to notice.
"Don't be so nervous, I'm just asking casually, you can say what you want, and don't say it if you don't want to."
"It's still what I said before, everyone in this world has secrets, it's normal."
Mingke asked the person at the guest house for boiling water, and stood by the door to breathe while drinking.
The people at the counter downstairs looked up at them from time to time, because they were a man and a woman, and they had not shown her a marriage certificate, so they could never stay in the house together.
Because of this, the door of the room they were in was always open, and many people saw the previous move of fertilizer here.
Among them, Ellie, who has no job but is unwilling to do housework at home, happened to see this scene.
When she found Amy, she followed them.
Elle is different from Amy, she has not gone to the countryside but has been living in Jiangcheng, so she knows very well how difficult fertilizer is now, and many people outside are willing to spend a lot of money to buy it.
So, when she saw dozens of bags of fertilizer, her eyes straightened.
"How much will it cost if I take it all out?"
Ellie hid behind her and counted her fingers, and she didn't figure it out for a long time, but she knew that it must be a big amount of money that she couldn't have imagined before.
At first, she wanted to rush directly to Amy and say, but when she saw that Mingke was still there, she didn't dare, for fear that she wouldn't be able to beat her by then, so she ran back to find Amy first.
Ai Lian is now a temporary worker in the factory, and it would be unruly for Ai Mu to continue to be a temporary worker, so she retired and took care of a large family at home every day.
As soon as she heard that Amy had gotten a lot of fertilizer, she didn't even have time to untie her apron and hurriedly followed Elle to the guest house.
As a result, when she arrived at the guest house, she saw Amy in a room with a man.
Ai's mother has always thought that her daughters will be born well, and when the time comes, she will find a working family to marry a good family to help the family, and now when she saw Mingke wearing coarse cloth clothes, she was suddenly angry, and she rushed up panting.
"What are you doing?"
She slammed the door shut, then yelled at Amy and Mingke.
Ellie, who followed behind, felt that it was a pity, if the door was left open, maybe Amy's reputation would be completely ruined, and the family would definitely not want this oil bottle at that time.
In this way, there is one less person in the family, and she will not always be urged by Ai's mother to bring Lu Ming back for dinner.
But how could Ai Mu let others see her jokes, plus she had other plans for Amy, of course she wouldn't make a fuss, so she closed the door as soon as she went upstairs.
The usher at the bottom saw that they knew each other, and they looked like elders when they heard this, so they didn't care, just let people listen outside and not fight when the time came.
Inside, Amy saw her mother and Elle rushing in, and she didn't even get up.
She looked at them with one hand on the table, a sneer on her face.
"Why, are you reluctant to let me go so you came to see me off?"
"I'm your mother, who taught you to talk to me like this, and are there any rules?"
Amy likes to hold everything in her hands, so Amy's tone now dislikes her.
However, after entering the door, her eyes were attracted by the piles of fertilizer piled up next to her, and she had no time to look at Amy.
"There are a lot of fertilizers, these are all treasures."
Ai's mother pressed her hand the bag, and her face was flushed.
After a few words, Mingke also roughly understood the relationship between Amy and Amy, so he asked unceremoniously at this time, "What are you doing here?" ”
Mingke's voice is very good, deep and low, and it is very pleasing to the little girl.
Coupled with his handsome and cold face, Ellie's eyes were glued to him as soon as she saw his appearance.
She pinched her fingers whimsfully and said shyly: "Of course my mother and I came to see Xiaomi, are you an educated youth in the same place as Xiaomi, why haven't I seen you before?" ”
"Hmph, what's the use of educated youth, if there is a stutter at home, who is willing to let their children go to the countryside?"
At this age, Ai's mother has long not believed in any love and love, but only depends on whether the conditions at home are good or not, and whether it can bring benefits to her family.
Although Mingke is good-looking, she knows that the conditions at home are not good when she looks at the clothes on her body, so she doesn't have a good face for Mingke after entering the door.
Elle was stunned by this, and her mind instantly opened up.
Although the person in front of her is good-looking, if the family conditions are not good, won't she have to suffer in the future?
At the thought of this, Elle suddenly came to her senses.
She took a step back to Ai's mother's side, and looked at Mingke with disdain and disgust in her eyes.
"That's right, what a good family to be with this oil bottle. Mom, I've heard that a lot of people want to spend a lot of money on fertilizer, and if we take it back, we can make hundreds of dollars. ”
Jiangcheng is also a big city, although it is still not allowed to buy and sell on the surface, but the income of people in big cities is high, and the family conditions are okay, of course, they are not just thinking about how to fill their stomachs.
Therefore, there is a lot of black market in this kind of big city, and there are all kinds of exchanges.
Recently, the most demanded fertilizer on the black market is fertilizer, which is priced at a very high price, and is willing to give tickets.
You must know that at this time, the average business leader is only 50 yuan, and a lively happy event in the city is only about 100 yuan, so when Ai Mu heard that she could earn hundreds, she immediately asked for someone to carry the fertilizer away.
However, before Elle could get out of the door, she was stopped by Mingke.
"Who allowed you to take these things away?"
Elle raised her neck vigorously, lowered her chin and said to him: "Millet is from our family, and of course these fertilizers are made by her, otherwise it will be cheaper for you, an outsider?" ”
"Also, I advise you not to take the opportunity to do anything to me just because I look good-looking, the toad wants to eat swan meat, I don't look down on a poor bastard like you."
As she spoke, she looked Mingke up and down with disgust on her face, and although she didn't look down on him in her heart, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
Because this person is so good-looking, it simply meets the imagination of all girls for their other half.
"I'm not interested in people like you. Also, these things belong to Mao'er Village, if you dare to take them, you will steal them, and you will enter the bureau, you can think clearly. ”
Mingke couldn't stand Elle's disgusting gaze and withdrew her hand and sat down on the stool across from Amy.
"Into the game? Ouch, you think I'm a three-year-old, huh? These are my daughter's things, I gave birth to her and raised her for so many years, isn't her thing my thing? ”
"Then how can I steal my own things? Xiaomi, you said it yourself, shouldn't these things have been given to me in the first place? ”
Ai Mu crossed her hands on her waist and glared at Amy with a sideways face.
Amy has two older sisters above and a younger brother below, so at home she is a transparent person who doesn't love her father and mother.
Even Ai's mother, who is a mother, doesn't have much memory about her.
But Amy vaguely remembers that every time Amy cried and asked her to hug her when she was a child, as long as she made the way she is now, Amy would be obedient and not make trouble.
So now she subconsciously made this move, thinking that it would make Amy listen to her.
And Amy did nod.
But before they could rejoice, they heard her say, "Take it, take it, it's here anyway." ”
"It's just that these are all opened by the director of the fertilizer factory, and how many bags are clearly remembered, if the villagers find that one bag is missing, you have to think about whether they will come to Jiangcheng when the time comes."
Ellie replied dissatisfiedly: "What if it's missing, just say that you lost it on the road?" ”
Amy's hand under the table subconsciously tightened, and her eyes became a little colder.
"And then?"
"And then you can do more work as compensation, right? It's a big deal to say something nice or something, you're all together anyway, can they still beat you to death? ”
Ellie doesn't care if Amy will be scolded if she loses something and goes back, she only has the word "money" in her mind now.
The conditions at home are not good, her mouth is too much to eat, and she often feels that she can't eat enough, and she can't buy the new clothes she likes, so she is not happy in her heart.
Now that she sees such a big opportunity to make money, how could she just let it go so casually?
Elle was fantasizing about her appearance in her new clothes, when an abrupt round of applause pulled her back.
"Good, good."
Amy slapped her hands as she stood up and walked up to Ellie.
"No wonder the second sister thinks so, I heard my mother say it last time during the Chinese New Year, you and that Lu Ming are running to get married, right?"
