Chapter 33: Earn Your First Money
"No need."
Su Xintang hurriedly stopped the snatching: "It's just a little bit of a relative's small thing, and it's not heavy, I can take it myself, so I won't have to work hard Comrade Wu." ”
At present, we are at the lowest point of national reform, and the news in rural areas is seriously lagging behind, and the control over private scalping is more strict. Although what she brought was just a little rice cake, she was found by someone wearing a red armband, and it was a small matter to write a review, but it was a big thing if she was really arrested and paraded on the street.
This Wu Bingjian doesn't know how long he has been here, and how long he has been watching, he jumped out at this moment, I'm afraid he didn't have any good intentions!
Su Xintang was extra vigilant.
"Aren't you rushing to the market? Let's go along anyway, it's not hard. Don't call Comrade Wu Comrade Wu, it's weird, we are all intellectual young people who go to the countryside, it's good if you call me Brother Wu......" Wu Bingjian didn't give up, and stepped forward to grab the flat burden.
"Let it go!"
Su Xintang drank vigorously. Snatch the flat pole strongly, pick it up and leave.
Wu Bingjian didn't check it, and the basket was snatched away by Su Xintang, and he couldn't help but be annoyed.
But soon, he quickly caught up: "I don't have any other meaning, Xiao Su, don't worry, I won't go to the village to report you, and I'm not that kind of person." I just want to talk to you, connect with you......"
He chased Su Xintang and hurried away, holding an umbrella to block the rain above his head for Su Xintang.
"I said, no!"
Su Xintang's words were faintly warning.
This Su Xintang is really not in oil and salt!
Wu Bingjian stood still, staring at Su Xintang's distant back, his eyes flashing with a ghostly light.
Su Xintang shook him off and left quickly.
Before I went out, I encountered this roadblock, and it seems that this trip is not peaceful. She couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Even so, she had no intention of giving up the trip.
At the beginning, despite the opposition of her parents, she secretly followed Ruan Mi'er to the countryside, and all she had in her hand was the sixty or seventy gross bills she had accumulated over the years. In these years, it is already a lot of money for the vast number of laborers who earn more than ten cents a day and take two triangular dollars a day.
In his previous life, he was never short of money!
Even in the most difficult moments, with the secret help of her eldest brother, she has no shortage of money to spend. Later, she and Ah Fei got married, and Ah Fei never let her worry about money.
Later, the spring breeze of reform and opening up blew all over the land, she went to the sea to do business, and the companies opened one after another, and her daily life was not short of money.
But that's no longer the case!
She successfully escaped the persecution of Ruan Mi'er, but her eldest brother, who was supposed to come to help her secretly, did not show up for a long time, and her parents have not contacted her until now.
The little money in her hand was too little, and she was stretched thin.
These rice cakes are nothing, but they are the first steps she is trying to take!
It's hard to get started.
As long as she finds the right way, her money-making plan will definitely get off to a good start.
The rain seemed to be showing signs of abating, the sky was still dark, and the light of a flashlight was faintly shaking on the street where the market was rushing. Su Xintang hid in the alley and secretly checked the movement on the street.
To make sure that her surroundings were safe, she took a headcloth and wrapped her head around it, covering most of her face. He took out the basket he had prepared, filled it with some rice cakes, and hid the basket before he walked out.
There are a few hidden people on the side of the road, who are secretly making transactions.
When they saw her appear, they all looked at her vigilantly.
Su Xintang didn't speak, just followed the appearance of a few people, leaned into the corner, and silently waited for the customer.
The light of several flashlights flickered over the basket she was screwing, and soon, someone was coming.
"How did you sell it?"
The other party deliberately lowered his voice and changed his voice, only to hear that it was a man.
"Millet cake, two cents and two pounds, one pound of food stamps. If you don't want food stamps, it's three cents and two pounds. ”
Su Xintang has long understood today's prices, and now the supply and marketing cooperatives also supply rice cakes, which are generally sold for two cents and five pounds, and one pound of food stamps are required. At present, the price of rice is one dime and two catties, and one catty of rice can make two catties of rice cakes. She sells at a slightly lower price than the supply and marketing cooperative.
"It's expensive. Three cents a pound is about the same. ”
The other side is obviously also very aware of the price.
Su Xintang's heart was also three cents, so he naturally didn't say anything more at the moment: "How much do you want?" ”
"Bring me two pounds."
The millet cakes she makes are not big, about 16 per catty. The reason why it is so clear is that she weighed it before going out, and it is also the default number of everyone.
Su Xintang counted and packed 32 rice cakes, thought about it, and added another one.
"Two catties, give one more and count me as you."
The other party obviously knew the quantity, so he paid the money and left quickly.
It opened, and soon someone came over. Buy one catty, half a catty, two catties each, and soon, the bamboo basket that Su Xintang was twisting was empty.
She left in a hurry and filled another bamboo basket of rice cakes, but instead of returning to the place just now to sell, she changed the street and continued to sell. ran like this four times in a row, and finally bought all the rice cakes in her basket. At this time, the sky gradually began to lighten. She didn't go back, but went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
The outside of the supply and marketing cooperatives has long been crowded with people, noisy and shouting, urging the late salesmen.
"What's the noise? If you quarrel again, you won't sell it! ”
The salesman with a full shelf had a straight face, glaring at the people who roared the most with white eyes. The necks of those people shrunk, and they were silent and did not dare to speak again.
An old man who was over half white next to him hurriedly laughed: "Girl, we are also ...... Worry. There is a happy event at home, and I am waiting to take my things back to the stove. ”
"What's my business? Wait for the rush to use, you won't buy it sooner? ”
The salesman looked very bad, not only did not speed up the action of removing the door panel, but deliberately grinded, and only opened the door at eight o'clock.
The crowd flocked to the city and began to snap up various items.
Su Xintang also crowded into the crowd, watching everyone grab for a piece of soap and a pack of cigarettes. In this year, everything is limited by tickets, and if there is a shortage at home, and there is no supply and marketing cooperative, you have to wait until the next market to buy.
Su Xintang's goal is the rice of the supply and marketing cooperative. There was still a lot of rice at home, but she still bought thirty catties in one go, and the salesman frequently gave her a look, and even the food stamps she gave were checked several times.
"Comrade, give me two more pairs of cloth shoes."
If you want to say where Su Xintang was forgotten by her, it is naturally the cloth shoes.
She went up the mountain to do farm work and went down to the field to pay shoes, she came to ride Longpo for only half a month, and she actually wore out a pair of cloth shoes, which she never expected. After thinking about it, he weighed five catties of wool again, and then rushed back.
While hurrying, she silently calculated, although the rice cakes were sold for some money, she directly spent nearly fifty yuan on shopping. Looking at the further shrinking wallet, I can't help but sigh!
"It's hard to make money these days!"
Before he rushed back to riding the dragon slope, he had just climbed halfway up the mountain, but Wang Min ran down the slope: "Xiao Su, hurry!" Someone's coming to get you. ”
Su Xintang sighed in his heart, could it be that Wu Bingjian really sued?
