Kou Xi has the right to speak in front of her father-in-law, definitely not because she dares to go against her step-mother-in-law, nor because her mother's family conditions are good. It's because Huo Dagui saw that Kou Xi could help his family to be well-off, and he believed in Kou Xi's vision of doing business.

Regardless of the strong opposition of Li Cuilian and Gao Liman, they insisted on preparing braised dried tofu, smoked dried tofu, and tofu bubbles. pulled his water tofu and dried tofu, a total of five varieties, loaded it into the family's old donkey cart, and led the reluctant Huo Lu to the market early.

Huo Dagui is also an open person in business, and he will be wiped off if he is three cents or two cents. There are people who don't know the goods, and he generously lets people taste them. In the end, because everyone thought it was a rarity, it was sold out before noon.

Li Cuilian was shocked by the first day, and she herself began to believe that Kou Xi's vision for doing business was really good. When the second market was opened, Li Cuilian also followed the donkey cart to help. My own tofu is still the best business, and the rest of the braised dried tofu is also a highlight.

Li Cuilian took a good look around the market while selling tofu, and found that people really sold everything. Even the pickles that are usually strange at home are bought, and the third time she went to the market, she took out the salted duck eggs that she had saved at home that she had been reluctant to eat. Unexpectedly, even salted duck eggs were bought, which made Li Cuilian have an idea, that is, as long as there is something for sale, someone will buy it.

In this era, resources are scarce, and many people have money in their hands but can't buy things. Kou Xi still remembers very clearly that one year his grandmother was about to die. Before he died, he wanted to eat a bite of watermelon, but in the winter, it was difficult for his uncle. In the middle of the night, I found Kodwang and asked him to find a way to get a big watermelon. No matter how capable Kou Dewang is, it is impossible to find fresh watermelons in the great northeast of the cold winter wax moon. In the end, I didn't know where to get the canned pineapple, which was a very rare object, and I braved the heavy snow overnight to send it to the old lady.

That's all because Kou Dewang has some ability to get it to eat, and ordinary people can't even think of it.

Now it's a good time, and people have a sense of doing business. And you don't need food stamps to buy things, so you can buy them, so there is a market.

Originally, he said that he would run in the market for two months and grope for it, but Huo Dagui only ran three times a month before discovering the benefits of catching the market. It's just that the old donkey at home is physically exhausted, and he can't toss for a long distance at all.

Huo Dagui knew the time of the market in several neighboring villages nearby, and he calculated that he could run many places a month if he was a little farther away. In some places, there are the first day of the first day of the new year, some places are the fifth day of the first month, there are also the tenth and fifteenth places of the first month, the eighteenth, and one place is the twenty-fifth to catch the market. In this way, you can go to the market six times a month, and the rest of the time you are ready at home.

"Old woman, it's really not okay to buy a three-wheeled one!" Huo Dagui twisted his goatee and discussed with Li Cuilian: "The family's money should be able to buy a tricycle, and with the tricycle, I can earn it back by leading Huo Lu to run a few more markets a month." ”

According to normal times, Li Cuilian absolutely disagrees. But now that the tofu business at home is so good, it's really inconvenient to have no car. It's just that Horu can drive a tricycle, and does that thing have to have a driver's license like a car?

"Who cares about that in the countryside!" Huo Dagui disagreed: "He can even drive on four wheels, what are you afraid of with a three-wheeler." It's just that I finally saved some money, and after buying three wheels, my house is almost empty. ”

"Hmph, isn't your eldest daughter-in-law always thinking about the two money in your pocket? It's a scare to split up today's family and tomorrow's family, this time I bought three wheels, and if I want to split up again, get out by myself!" Li Cuilian snorted, she actually agreed in her heart that it was not for this matter. Instead, he saw that Huo Lu could have something to do, and he didn't have to play money at home every day to make his father look down on him.

Horu likes to drive, and she's found out the last time Hoan came back in that car. The child's eyes were straight, and he kept thinking about trying it with his eldest brother. But Huo Anda disagreed on the grounds that he didn't have a driver's license.

Later, the senior deputy director of the grain depot drank high at home, but she heard that Huo Lu drove him back on four wheels.

If she buys a three-wheeled home, she will be the first in the neighborhood, and Huo Lu will work hard because of this car. Her good life is yet to come, and no matter how she thinks about it, it's a deal that won't lose money.

After calculating this account, Li Cuilian reminded Huo Dagui: "You have to calculate, there is only this amount of money in the family, don't smash your hands." ”

In the spring season, Huo Dagui led Huo Lu back from the city to a brand-new blue tricycle. This thing is not new in Hongqi Town, but it is still a very sensational among the neighbors.

Many nearby villagers came to see, and Huo Lu stood in the courtyard with his hands in his pockets and greeted these people confidently.

Li Cuilian had never seen such a radiant son, and she felt more and more that it was the right thing to do to buy a tricycle from her old book.

With a large amount of expenses at home, the pressure on Huo Dagui's shoulders is even greater. Every day before dawn, he called Huo Lu to get up and work, and ran the market six times a month to make noodles. Such hard days lasted only a month, and Horu couldn't hold on.

It's just that this person likes to brag because bragging has caused a lot of trouble for the family.

On that day, Huo Dagui's cousin's son married his daughter-in-law, and they begged Huo Lu to drive a tricycle to pick up his daughter-in-law. This kind of thing is not done in vain, Huo Lu can get a box of cigarettes at his mother's house, and the groom will also give him a red envelope of five yuan.

During the meal, Huo Lu saw that this table was full of relatives of his family. In addition to showing that he has a tricycle, he also opened his mouth to sarcastically say that he is not as good as his relatives. I can't afford to buy a house and can't afford to live in it, so I can only carry a hoe and work hard all my life.

After a few glasses of wine, people were dizzy and began to brag about how much money they made in the house. He even said that it would not be long before his family would buy a new piece of land and build a row of large tiled houses on the foundation.

That night, Huo Dagui went home to sleep, that is, at ten o'clock, he heard someone knocking on the door and calling him. When he put on his clothes, he saw that his family's firewood stack was on fire. My family is still at a loss, and I don't know how to sleep with a big quilt. If it weren't for the neighbors who got up in the middle of the night and found out, the consequences would be really unimaginable.

The neighbors woke him up and the neighbors around him, and everyone ran over to put out the fire. The noisy and noisy noise was raised in the second half of the night, and the fire of the Huo family was extinguished, and Hongqi Town returned to peace.

But the Huo family, who had just experienced a fire, didn't dare to sleep anymore. Kou Xi and Huo Xinyu sat on the kang, and both of them were a little afraid.

"Sister-in-law, why did our firewood stack catch fire? Do you think it was lit by someone else or by yourself?"
