Chapter 41 Makes Money

Liu Mingfang led the way, and his uncle Zhang Meiman rushed to the Hongyun Hotel, and Boss Chen had already set up the carriage and waited. Ming Fang told Boss Chen not to forget to bring the money, and seeing the other party nodding, the three of them got into the carriage and went straight to Hejia Market Town.

When he arrived at the gate of the grain station, it was nearly nine o'clock, Ming Fang took one hundred and ten yuan from Boss Chen, and asked him and his uncle to wait at the door, and she went in first.

Inquired and found Wang Erzhu's office, Wang Erzhu knelt on the desk to read the documents, saw that Ming Fang really came, asked her to bring enough money, and led her to the accounting room, the female accountant collected the money and issued the invoice, and neatly handed over the two lists to Ming Fang.

Wang Erzhu pointed to the front row of warehouses and told her to pick up the goods in the No. 3 warehouse.

Ming Fang thanked him, ran to the gate, beckoned his uncle and Boss Chen to drive the carriage into the grain station, and went straight to the No. 3 warehouse, where several people were already busy weighing and carrying grain.

It was his turn, Ming Fang handed over one of the couplets* to the weighed man, who was in his fifties, glanced at the list, inserted it into the iron drill on the side, and commanded them to carry the sack to the pump scale, one person lifted it aside, Boss Chen and Zhang Meiman moved ten sacks neatly, and the man waved his hand and said okay.

The two hurriedly lifted them up to the carriage. The man said with a calm face that he didn't forget to return the sack back to the grain station, Mingfang nodded and agreed, she took out two boxes of cigarettes from the supply and marketing cooperatives from her pocket and stuffed them into the man's hands.

"Thank you, master!"

When the man's fingers were plucked and weighed, Ming Fang noticed the yellow of the person's index and middle fingers, and knew at a glance that this person had a history of smoking. Sure enough, the man took the cigarette, smiled on his face, and said that he would come back in a day or two.

Mingfang followed the carriage and walked out, and saw Wang Erzhu standing at the door of the office and waving at her. Mingfang ran over.

"Thank you, Director!" Ming Fang Zhenfang thanked.

"Haha, little girl, you saved my brother's life, what am I doing here!" Wang Erzhu looked very arrogant, and he looked decisive.

Ming Fang tentatively added: "Director, can I buy more?"

"Oh, how much more do you want?"

Ming Fang had already calculated, and when she returned to the Hongyun Hotel, the other party paid, and she made a net profit of 260 yuan, plus the 30 she took from home, and she had a full 290 yuan in her hand!

"Another thousand catties, okay?"

Wang Erzhu glanced at the gate of the courtyard, and another carriage came in, with a smile on his face: "This time this station is only 5,000 catties, and I will give you 600 catties at most." You see, here is another grain cart, and it is estimated that it will be over before it gets dark. ”

Ming Fang saw that Director Wang agreed, and jumped so high with joy: "Director Wang, remember to tell me about this kind of thing in the future, anyway, I am in the town almost every day." School gates, health centers, supply and marketing cooperatives, and socially run factories are just these places. ”

Wang Erzhu smiled and nodded. Mingfang ran away.

When I went back, the carriage pulled the grain, Boss Chen shook the whip, Mingfang and his uncle followed closely on foot, arrived at the Hongyun Hotel, unloaded the car, Zhang Meiman helped Boss Chen pour the wheat into several large vats in the back room of his house, the proprietress had a flowering face, smiled and took out two hundred and ninety yuan and handed it to Mingfang.

Mingfang took the money: "Boss Chen, I'll discuss something with you, can you borrow your carriage for me to go to Hejiaji again, and I'll give you three yuan to rent a car?"

Such a good thing, Boss Chen didn't look at his wife's face this time, and immediately nodded in agreement. Mingfang was not ambiguous, and immediately took out three yuan and handed it to the woman.

Ming Fang and Zhang Meiman drove the carriage to turn around and go to the grain station. Ming Fang was afraid that he would not be able to catch up, so he urged his uncle to hurry up along the way, and it was almost twelve o'clock when he arrived at the grain station, Ming Fang ran to the accounting office to pay the money and issue invoices, and the man who saw the warehouse had closed the warehouse door and locked it.

Mingfang called the master from afar, ran over, the man saw that it was the little girl just now, looking at the face of the two boxes of cigarettes, he didn't say anything, reopened the door and weighed, Mingfang and his uncle carried six hundred catties of wheat into the carriage.

When I got out of the grain station, it was already noon. Mingfang touched her pocket, two hundred and ninety yuan, six hundred catties of wheat cost eighty-four yuan, rented a red carriage cost three yuan, and she still had two hundred and three yuan in her hand.

The food has arrived, this time Mingfang is not in a hurry to rush back, after running for a long time, her stomach growls early, and there is money in her pocket when she goes to the restaurant, but she doesn't want to delay her efforts, Mingfang went to the roadside fire stall, spent two dimes to buy four fires, and discussed with the old man who burned the fire, and the two drank some hot water.

Ming Fang grabbed the medicine according to the prescription and sold 600 catties of wheat to Guoli Restaurant at a smooth profit of four corners and five cents per catty.

In this way, she made four hundred and forty-six dollars in one day!

In the second half of the morning, the weather was much warmer. In front of the supply and marketing cooperatives on the north side of the road, Mingfang saw several men and women selling eggs, brooms, and straw, all of which were self-produced by farmers. Many people from nearby villages came to buy the items they needed, but they didn't see anyone taking care of them, and it seems that the national policy has been relaxed.

It's still early, and Ming Fangxin said that since he rented a carriage, he had to make good use of it. She bargained for two dollars to wrap the straw, and the seller, an old man, took the money and was so happy that he helped carry it to the wagon. Mingfang looked up and saw the big words "Develop the economy and ensure supply" on the walls on both sides of the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, and couldn't help laughing. The heart said, how good is the country's policy to develop the economy and ensure supply. People in this era never dreamed that one or two decades later, there will be rice and white noodles, and melons, fruits and vegetables will continue all year round.

Mingfang asked her uncle to watch the carriage outside, and she went in by herself.

Zhang Meiman held the horsewhip and looked at Mingfang's small back, in a trance. Ming Fang's series of quick movements dazzled him, and his brain couldn't turn around. While he was worried that his niece would do this, he would be punished and asked someone to check and be punished, while he was greedy to earn money. You know, what he lacks most at the moment is money, and he can't pay five yuan for his mother's medical treatment!

Mingfang first found Li Shanling, she couldn't go to her grandmother's house empty-handed, but she had neither meat stamps nor food stamps in her hands, with Li Shanling's help, Mingfang spent a triangle in front of the non-staple food counter to weigh two catties of pork, and bought a catty of Jiang rice noodles and a catty of sugar cubes, and the salesman wrapped it for her.

Mingfang browsed at the agricultural and sideline products counter, bought two taels of celery, spinach, and leek seeds each, asked the salesman to wrap them, she came out, and drove the carriage back to the village with Zhang Meiman. Entering the house startled Zhang Meiyu, and asked where the carriage came from, Mingfang told her that it was borrowed, and saw a cart of straw, Zhang Meiyu was even more surprised, and while moving down, she asked her daughter what she wanted so much straw for.

There are more and more stalls in the town, and seeing that the end of the year is coming, Mingfang has found another business opportunity.

Ming Fang put the grass and straw in the matching room first, and told Zhang Meiyu to turn out the ground on the west side of the greenhouse until the root of the west wall while she didn't have to work.

"This place is frozen, isn't it easy to turn over?" Zhang Meiyu looked at the open space to the west. The sun was shining on her face today.

My brother was obviously preparing for the final exam, and he couldn't delay his study, but he didn't see him come out, so he probably went to Fang Yuan again. Mingfang looked at Zhang Meiman: "Uncle, I took my grandmother to my house for medical treatment, how about you come and help me turn over this piece of land?"

On the way to transport food, Mingfang carefully asked about her grandmother's condition, Zhang Meiman said that the old lady's right arm and right leg could not move, her mouth was crooked, and she couldn't hear clearly, she judged that she should have suffered from cerebral thrombosis, which is what people call hemiplegia. If the treatment is timely and appropriate, it may be possible to recover, but this will take time, not three or two days to see results. Therefore, Mingfang proposed to take the old lady over, otherwise, it was five or six miles away from Zhangjiazhuang, how could she have the energy to run every day? Besides, it was not convenient for her to carry out treatment for her uncle's family.

Zhang Meiman is in the prime of life, and the croppers work all year round, this little work is nothing, he nodded immediately.

Ming Fang and Zhang Meiman entered the house and drank a bowl of hot water each, and went to the town to return the carriage of the Hongyun Hotel. Ming Fang followed Zhang Meiman and hurried to Zhangjiazhuang.
