Chapter 15: Selling vegetables in the county

Finally, Lin Yue's vegetables can be harvested.

On this day, a family of five stood in the greenhouse, looking at the green and tender vegetables in front of them, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know where to start cutting.

"Dad, let's cut a bundle of leeks and send them to my grandmother's house, and pick a few more persimmons, my grandmother's favorite is tomato egg drop soup." Lin Yue said to Lin Chengzhi, who was stunned.

"Okay, well, cut, cut it, you can send it" Before Lin Chengzhi could recover from the green in front of him, he heard that Lin Yue was going to deliver food to the next door, so he nodded and said quickly.

"Chengzhi, there are so many dishes in this vegetable, I can't finish it for a while, after sending a few good ones, there is any surplus, you can go to Dongfeng County to sell it, and you can earn as much as you can." Liu Li turned her head and looked at Lin Chengzhi, who was standing stupidly, and discussed.

"Okay, get up early tomorrow morning, cut two baskets, and I'll take it to Dongfeng on my bicycle to sell it." After Lin Chengzhi finished speaking, he bent down and began to cut leeks.

After listening to the conversation between her parents, Lin Yue happily made a small calculation in her heart: two baskets of vegetables, if you sell them to a restaurant, you can earn 100 yuan, right? I don't know what the price of goods is now, I just remember that a piece of sugar was 1 cent at that time, and as for the rest, hehe, she was too young at that time to know.

Early the next morning, Lin Chengzhi had eaten early, picked up two baskets of freshly cut vegetables, and rode out on a car.

The bamboo basket full of vegetables was set on the back seat of Lin Chengzhi's bicycle, and before Lin Chengzhi set off, he wrapped it tightly with a rope several times, for fear that he would lose it halfway. One basket can hold about 50 catties, two is 100 catties, and carrying these two baskets in the back seat is simply too easy for Lin Chengzhi now.

Lin Yue thought of his father, who was already old in his previous life, and could only sigh at this time: Young is good!

When Lin Chengzhi went out, Lin Yue repeatedly emphasized to him that he must sell to the hotel, and then strive to negotiate a long-term cooperative deal. Lin Chengzhi nodded again and again, agreeing, he actually thought so in his heart. The restaurant has a large passenger flow, consumes more vegetables, and is relatively stable, and the price can be negotiated higher. Lin Chengzhi is doing business for the first time, although it is only a business to sell vegetables, then he has to take the first step.

After Lin Chengzhi arrived at the county seat, he looked at the few restaurants on the side of the street with closed doors, and he was a little hesitant and didn't dare to come forward and knock on the door.

Finally, when he walked to the door of the third hotel, the boss happened to send his friend out, and when he saw Lin Chengzhi pulling two baskets of things, he came over and asked curiously, "Big brother, what are you doing in this basket, it is covered so tightly, and it is strange and mysterious?" ”

Lin Chengzhi scratched his hair and said a little embarrassed, "It's home-grown vegetables, but they are fresh, and I am afraid of freezing on the way here, so I covered the basket with a quilt."

"Greens? Or is it fresh? Brother, you're not kidding? The boss asked in surprise. Lin Chengzhi hurriedly put the quilt on the basket and lifted a corner for the hotel owner to see.

"Brother, come, let's go into the house and talk" After the hotel owner saw the vegetables in Lin Chengzhi's basket, he hurriedly went to the restaurant. It's a lucrative business, and we can't let it slip away. The boss hurriedly helped Lin Chengzhi lift the basket off the bicycle, and the two of them carried the basket together and entered the hotel.

"I said, brother, how much are you going to sell these two baskets of vegetables?" After the boss took a closer look at the dishes in the basket, he found a free table, let Lin Chengzhi sit down, and poured him a cup of hot water.

"Boss, look at it, it's the first time I'm selling, and I don't know what the market is." Lin Chengzhi lowered his head and took a sip of water, said very truthfully, and then licked his lips that were chapped by the wind.

"Well, let's do it, I think brother, you are also a real person, I am also a real person, let's do real things, it's not easy for you to carry these two baskets of vegetables from afar, how about I give you two baskets of 6 yuan?" The boss slapped the table and said to Lin Chengzhi happily.

Lin Yue later learned that the price at that time was very low, and a pound of vegetables was only a few cents, so the price of 6 yuan given by the boss was already very high. A young man's salary is only about 30-50 yuan a month.

Lin Chengzhi didn't expect that selling something for the first time would be so smooth, and he couldn't believe it was true.

"Brother, do you have anything else at home besides these two baskets?" The boss asked tentatively.

"Yes, as many as you want!" At this time, Lin Chengzhi was already excited, so when the boss asked if there were any greens at home, he immediately replied.

"That's okay, then you can send me two baskets of vegetables every day" The boss got up and walked towards the counter, took out six one-yuan bills from the drawer, and gave them to Lin Chengzhi. Lin Chengzhi took it, quickly put it in the small padded jacket under the military coat, and then patted it with his hand. I thought to myself, this is the first time I have made money from trading, and I can't lose it.

Lin Chengzhi didn't stay too much in the hotel, said goodbye to the boss after taking the money, rode a bicycle, and went home with two empty baskets.

"Old girl, guess how much your father and I sold vegetables?" As soon as Lin Chengzhi entered the house, he happily shouted to Lin Yue on the kang.

Lin Yue was watching Liu Li knit a sweater at this time, and the sweater was finished immediately. She heard Lin Chengzhi mention selling vegetables, so she quickly moved to the edge of the kang, stretched her neck and asked Lin Chengzhi, who was drinking water in the outhouse, "Dad, how much, show me" Lin Chengzhi looked at Lin Yue, who was anxious, and then put down the water cup and entered the inner room, and took out six one-yuan bills from his arms.

"Huh? Why did it sell for 5 yuan, this is too little, I thought I had to sell it for 100 yuan" Lin Yue said a little disappointed, and his eyes no longer looked at the five one yuan.

"Money-hungry chick, do you know how much money your second uncle earned by working hard for a month, 20 yuan, your father and I earned six yuan just by selling vegetables today, this is still a day, I will deliver food to the restaurant every day in the future, and after a month, I will have old nose money"

Lin Yue suddenly found the truth. She forgot about her current standard of living, and measured it by the standard of living before she was reborn. Lin Yue thought about Lin Chengzhi's words just now, wow, then her family has almost 180 yuan of income in a month. Then, they saved up for another winter, tsk, what a huge sum of money.

In this way, Lin Chengzhi started the mode of delivering food to the county every day.
