Chapter 60: It's Not Easy
Choosing what type of rice they wanted, they began to ask Su Chengqi to weigh the rice. The rice has not yet dried, and they can't wait, for fear that someone will rob them of their share.
Wang Lung stood by and watched them weigh the rice, "Before you can do it, you will weigh it, isn't this a loss?" ”
"Ten catties of rice, a few catties less than dried in the sun. Are you stupid or not? ”
"Don't buy so much, your family has less land, so you can't use so much."
They said to Wang Lung: "It's my own talent that is so cheap, if I buy it for you, I will sell it as seeds." I don't know how much money has risen. No one is stupid. ”
The Su family's rice is so small, if you don't grab it, it will be gone. Although they don't need so many grains, they can't stop them from having relatives.
The father-in-law's family and the grandmother's family have to send some over, and the three families together will spend more than a dozen catties of grain planting. At this time, I don't want to ask much, and when I come to ask, it's the most shameless to not be able to take it out.
The high yield is popular, and the fragrant rice type is also popular.
They are all from Dongquan Village, and the village chief has a few people with them, eyeing him. The reason of not arguing with the locals made Wang Lung dare not rob hard.
I can only stubbornly talk and persuade the villagers. I hope they will show mercy and leave some for him.
Wang Lung was horizontal, grabbed the bag and packed it with his own, and occupied hundreds of catties, if he came to rob, he would open his teeth and claws to bite people.
It's okay to ask about boiling fertilizer at any time, but this matter of selling grain seeds, there is no such shop in this village, and of course the villagers of Dongquan rush to come.
The copper plates were stuffed to Su Li and Su Zhang, and they received the money softly.
Su Lingyu watched the excitement on the side and admired Wang Lung's expression of jumping feet.
An hour and a half passed, and finally the money was calculated and the incident with the villagers was dealt with. Su Chengqi came to Wang Long, smoking, and tried to say a few words.
"It's useless for a good brother to take possession, there really is no rice to sell you."
Wang Lung patted the rice under his body and occupied, "You can sell these to me." ”
"My three sons love fragrant rice, if I sell you, I won't want to enter the house today." Swallowing saliva and moistening his throat, he said hoarsely, "The reason why the villagers don't rob you anymore is because they said in advance that they would leave me as much as they wanted." Their eyes were poisonous, and they could see the remaining amount at once. Brother Wang, you still missed the calculation! ”
Wang Lung jumped up from the bag and punched Su Chengqi, "Good guy, I am like a brother to you." I take care of you everywhere, but you make things difficult for me everywhere. ”
"The relatives in the family said early that they would eat the fragrant rice grown by your family. The last time we met, I knew it in advance, and now it's okay, you make money and go home, but you leave me aside. Is there still a person like you who is unrighteous and unjust? ”
Wang Lung waved his cuffs, eager to cut off his robe with Su Chengqi.
Su Chengqi hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "Good brother, good brother, don't be angry." It's not much, but it's ......."
"Yes, good brother. I don't want more, you give fifty or sixty pounds to me, and I will pay you the price of seeds. Wang Lung didn't smile on his face, but there was a little triumph in his eyes.
"This ...... It's not okay. Su Chengqi peeked at San'er and saw San'er staring at him. He is a little entangled, on one side is a good three sons, and on the other side is a brother. What should I do? What a dilemma.
Su Lingyu helped her mother calculate the copper plate, "Brotherhood is sometimes a life-saving straw, sometimes a life-saving poison." Brothers who only care about themselves and don't think about others, don't do it. ”
I don't know who I said this sentence with. It's like talking about Su Chengqi, and it's like talking about Wang Lung.
Wang Long, who came and went in the wind and waves, naturally heard the meaning of these words. But he didn't want to admit that he was the one who didn't think about anyone.
"San'er said it so well, a brother like your father really can't make friends. You still know me. ”
She was obviously talking about you Wang Long, when did you say that she was a cheap father?
This king dragon is like a snake and a fox, can borrow a stick to climb up, and is very cunning.
Pour the copper plate in your hand into the money bag and listen to the sound of the copper plate crashing. She looked at Wang Lung, "Why?" ”
"Why are you so persistent? Merchants value sincerity and trust, and you would rather use affection to blackmail you to get fragrant rice. Why is that? ”
The words of the three sons of the Su family made the three pairs of six eyes all look at him, and the situation under his control was reversed in an instant. The fragrant rice that should have been obtained is now afraid that there will not be a single grain.
Su Shan has the highest status in the Su family, and in addition to this, Su Chengqi is the highest. Su Shan is often not at home, and with Su Chengqi's trust, he can get what he wants in the Su family.
If you can't find a convincing reason, I'm afraid that you will lose Su Chengqi's trust. The good things produced by the Su family are afraid that it will be difficult to buy.
Wang Long and Su Chengqi explained: "I won't tell you anything, General Sun will come to Liangguan City in a few days. I, Liangguan, the head snake in the land, had to come forward everywhere to find good things and curry favor with General Sun. Your fragrant rice, since you take it to the Central Plains, can also be sold at a good price. It is best to curry favor with General Sun's relatives. ”
Wang Lung was deeply stunned, "Brother Su, I'm sorry just now. ”
Su Chengqi quickly stopped and didn't let Wang Lung go to the end. "Don't say this, don't say this. You have a problem, I can understand it, and I will give you a few ...... How hard is it to have a few pounds? ”
He wanted to say dozens of catties, but when he saw San'er's black and white eyes, his softened heart gradually hardened, and dozens of catties turned into a few catties.
"The amount is small, and it is too embarrassing to send it. Forget it. Wang Lung's tone revealed loss.
"Twenty or thirty pounds of you, you can't do any more." Su Chengqi said.
"I have good sorghum wine at home, I don't know if you need it, Uncle Wang? Freshly planted rice beans can also sell you. ”
Before Su Lingyu's words fell, he met the eyes of his cheap father.
She hooked the corners of her mouth and replied to the cheap father with her eyes: If you dare to sell my rice, I will sell your wine.
"That's good, but I'm afraid you won't want to sell it. The last batch of soybeans you sold was very popular. It was wrapped in a circle by the eastbound tofu line. "His people made a fortune when they changed hands.
The beans and cereals produced by the Su family are sold as seeds, which is not an exaggeration at all. Whoever buys it and plants it says it's good.
Although the sorghum wine at home is not brewed by San'er, the old lady listens to her. She let it be sold, and the old lady helped sell it. So he still has wine to drink?
What a grudge-holding little lady!
Su Chengqi went to get the cloth bag and weighed twenty catties of fragrant rice and Wang Long. With apologies: "That's the biggest amount." Mr. Su Chong's side, I still need to send some over, and there is not much left. Wait for me to expand the planting in the fall. Before the Chinese New Year, you will definitely be able to get a good face in front of General Sun. ”
Thirty catties became twenty catties, so San'er wouldn't sell his wine indiscriminately.
Drinking wine depends on the face of the little lady in the family, is it easy for him to be this father? It's not easy!
In order to eat a mouthful of fragrant rice, you not only have to work hard to farm, but also have to fight with cheap dads. Is she easy?
It's not easy!
