Chapter 8: Tricky Issues

The mother-in-law persuaded again, saying that a woman's family, no matter how capable and rich she is, also needs a man's shoulders to lean on.

I said no.

The mother-in-law said, don't say it too early.

I'm speechless.

My mother-in-law said again, she won't drag me down, and when Meimei graduated from university, she went to Feng Wei and said that raising children to prevent old age, he Feng Wei couldn't ignore her. also said that Mei Mei went to college, and Feng Wei, who was his brother, had to take care of it.

I asked my mother-in-law if she didn't want me to stay at Feng's house.

My mother-in-law said that she didn't want to trouble me, and it was their Feng family who was sorry for me. After saying that, he went out.

I was going to say the 100,000 yuan given by Feng Wei, but I felt that the money was very dirty and didn't open my mouth.

I don't think I will know about my divorce, and the people in the village will not know about it.

But that day, Sister Li and I went to work in someone else's greenhouse to earn money. Sister Li trained me, what a stupid woman, she said she would leave.

I said early to leave and early to be liberated. He asked her again how she knew.

Sister Li said that Brother Li said that he had seen Feng Wei, and now he was angry, relying on that rich woman, he began to contract the project and do the work of installing doors and windows.

I listened to the unbelieving wrinkle.

Sister Li asked me if I went to the provincial capital and saw the high-rise building that Brother Li and they built? It was completed immediately, and it was Feng Wei who led a group of people to install doors and windows.

I laughed, he Feng Wei is a welder, and he can do other jobs.

Sister Li pounded me and said, you, you are still a literate person, I know that in this society, you can do anything if you have money.

Not to mention that the woman Feng Wei is good at, who runs a hotel and a beauty salon, is that kind of person who should not be underestimated, and knows a lot of people with their heads and brains.

I think it's incredible that the kind of woman who doesn't do anything can still know someone who has the power. Shake your head in disbelief.

Sister Li reprimanded me again, saying that if it was her, she knew that Feng Wei had climbed a rich woman, and she must have a house and a car, and she would only give up if she needed a sum of money.

I said I wanted to be disgusting.

Sister Li scolded me, saying that when I was forced to go home, I would know that the money was good.

I said I wouldn't have that day!

These days are the season when the cucumbers in the greenhouse are on the market, and the villagers pick the ripe cucumbers in the morning, frame them and wait for the previous boss Hu to collect them.

Boss Hu is tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a square face, and a loud mouth.

He is very honest in his life and work, never does anything on the scale, never delays the payment, and settles on the spot.

Therefore, the consciousness of the villagers is that they only grow vegetables and do not worry that no one will want them.

When an hour passed today, and Boss Hu did not appear, the villagers in the greenhouse were like ants on a hot pot, and they talked about it, saying that Boss Hu was not trustworthy, did not come to collect, and did not say a word.

At this moment, the villagers forgot all the good things that Boss Hu had done before, and complained.

I'm in a hurry! What can I do?

I had the courage to call Boss Hu, and no one answered for the first time. There was no one to pick it up, and my heart was pounding, and I hesitated to fight again.

But if you don't fight, what will happen to the twenty or thirty baskets of cucumbers of this villager?

I was bold again, and I got through. I asked, is it Boss Hu? The other party responded for a long time, saying that she was Boss Hu's daughter-in-law, and Boss Hu had a heart attack and left.

"How so!" My shout was met with strange glances from the villagers.

Sister Li saw my hand shaking with the phone and asked me what happened?

I said that Boss Hu had a heart attack and left.

Suddenly, the women who were talking about it quieted down, and they all wrinkled their faces with blank expressions.

Sister Li said what should I do? Our men are out there.

I don't have a man now, and in my future life, I will be the breadwinner of the family, and some time ago, I will sell fruits in the provincial capital for a few days, and I know a little bit.

"Today's cucumbers, Sister Li and I drove to the city to sell them!"

The crowd opened the pot again, and someone asked: Xu Yan, are you okay? Xu Yan, how much do you charge? Is it cash?

I said let me try, how much Boss Hu charges, I will pay as much as I want, I can't give everyone cash today, come back to give everyone okay.

Most people said yes, and a few people didn't say anything.

Sister Li felt that I was also good for everyone, and yelled angrily: "Xu Yan has relieved our worries, why are you still stunned?" Scaled. ”

The crowd began to act, and I kept an account for everyone, who and who weighed. One by one, one by one, one by one, basket loading.

Huaihe Village is located at the junction of urban and rural areas, and it takes more than ten minutes to drive into the city.

On the way to the city on the tricycle, Sister Li, who was sitting next to me, chattered, this is more than 20 baskets, can you sell it?

I said that the retail sale is guaranteed to be sold out, so let's go to the vegetable market to wholesale and approve it.

Sister Li smiled and asked me, do I understand?

I said try!

She glared at me angrily, this is a few thousand yuan of goods, can you try it? What if it doesn't sell?

I said why I couldn't sell it, Boss Hu was also the purchase price, and people still drove to the shed to collect it, and they still made money.

Sister Li argued that Boss Hu has been working for many years, has experience, and has customers.

I said that once I was born and twice cooked, I worked for a while, and I didn't mix in the market. Maybe we can be bosses too.

Sister Li glanced at me and said that I was like a woman in charge.

I was muttering in my heart, it was all Feng Wei's bastard.

When entering the wholesale market, people also charge three yuan.

Sister Li muttered that there is a charge for entering the door, and she will rob the money!

I laugh that this is the city, this is the regular market, not the countryside.

Looking at this market, which covers an area of thousands of acres, with cars coming and going, and thriving business, I drove in with confidence.

The market is so big, there are three greenhouses, the car of wholesale vegetables is set up, there are whole vehicles of leeks, greens, peppers, tomatoes, rape, etc., the voices of people are boiling, the scene is hot, talking, paying, loading and getting on the car, are happy.

In order to find a place to park, I went to find a place and asked Sister Li to guard the car.

From one end of the greenhouse to the other, the wholesale vegetable trucks are one after another, with trucks and four-wheeled vehicles, echoing back and forth.

And in the middle of the passage of twenty or thirty meters, people ride tricycles, electric tricycles, come and go, endlessly.

It just so happened that a merchant who wholesaled cabbage was leaving. I walked over and asked if I could put it here.

When people saw that I was a living person, they said that this was his stall, and he was leaving, and he would give twenty yuan.

I listened and asked if there was a charge here!

People glared at me, if you want it, if you don't want it, you will give it to others.

I was hesitating when a man pulling a cart of tomatoes came over on an electric tricycle and asked the man if he was leaving? Somewhere he wants.

When I saw this posture, I shouted that I wanted it, and took out twenty dollars and gave it to the man.

As soon as Sister Li and I removed the plastic sheeting on the car, a little daughter-in-law pushing a tricycle asked how much the cucumber was.

I said two yuan a catty, Sister Li pounded me, and sold it at the purchase price!

I whispered that on the first day of today, I should familiarize myself with the experience of marketing.

The daughter-in-law said she wanted four baskets.

Lifting the basket from the car, I realized that I didn't pull the scale.

My eldest brother, who gave twenty dollars, was about to leave, and I begged him, and his scale was borrowed for me.

He said that he could use it, and he had to pay ten yuan for rent.

I scolded angrily, why are you like this, you want money for everything.

He ignored me and picked up the board, I thought he was leaving, and said okay to give you ten dollars.

He smiled at me and shoved the scales over.

When I passed the scales, I asked him why he hadn't left.

He said do you have this? As he spoke, he pulled the calculator out of his pocket.

My face turned red and I said I had paper and a pen.

He smiled and didn't say anything. Look at my stupid appearance when I weigh the scales, he taught me and Sister Li. While teaching, he also asked me if it was the first time I had done this.

Sister Li should be yes, yes.

I'm afraid I owe him a favor, so let him go shopping.

He actually joked, saying that he was afraid that when he came back, the people would be gone, and the scales would be gone. After saying that, he laughed.

I ignored him and took the little daughter-in-law's money.

When the little daughter-in-law pushed me into the car and left, she asked me if I would come tomorrow.

As soon as I heard this, there were repeat customers, and I was happy to say that I came.

She praised me again, saying that my cucumbers were fresh and cheap, and that she could make money by pulling them.

I nodded happily and watched her go.

When I turned around, I saw the man looking at me, and my face turned red and I didn't know what to say.

People didn't care, they asked me how much I charged, and I said two dollars a catty. After listening to it, he trained it, saying that I don't have a problem with my brain, so I will collect it for two yuan and sell it for two yuan.

I said I grew it myself.

He glared at him and said, I know what you planted yourself, but if someone else takes it away, you will sit and rest or do other things if you are not at home.

He really made sense, and I pouted and nodded.

Sister Li also complained, saying that I didn't listen to her, and I didn't know what to think.

I said the first day! Pull a regular customer.

The man laughed and said that this is a wholesale market, you sell this today, you sell that tomorrow, and the small traders here come from six or seven morning markets in this city, and there are many!

Just a guy asked how to wholesale cucumbers, and the man preemptively said, two pieces of five pounds, his own greenhouse, just picked.

The young man was very happy and said that he wanted eight baskets.

After the scales, the man asked the merchant when he helped the young man move the basket, where to sell, and he could sell eight baskets in the morning.

The vendor guy is real, saying that in the morning market, the flow of people in the morning market is particularly large, and the sales depend on the volume, as long as the stall is made, some money is earned.

Shocked, Sister Li and I looked at each other.

The man was about to boast when two more vendors asked for cucumbers. The two of them had to walk twelve baskets.

There were still three baskets left in the car, and I packed up the things in the car, and Sister Li chatted with the man.

Sister Li asked what the man's name was? How old is the child?

The man replied that his name was Ren Peng and he had no children.

Sister Li said that she lied to her, the man laughed, he really had no children, he just got married and divorced, Chinese New Year's Eve this year.

Sister Li asked again, don't you want to find it?

The man said that he didn't want to get married after being hurt once?

It just so happened that another one asked for cucumbers, and they asked for two baskets. As soon as I heard that there were two baskets to go, and there was still one basket left, I was in trouble.

The man told the vendor that if he wanted three baskets, he would earn two and five pounds, two pounds and twenty-one pounds, and four pounds in the market.

When the vendor heard that it was a good deal, he happily agreed.

The twenty-five baskets of cucumbers that I was worried about were finally distributed. I helped the man carry the scale, and I paid him ten dollars.

He didn't answer, smiled and said it was a joke, and stuffed the previous Ershiyuan into my hand, and drove into the car to leave.
