Chapter 25: The Best Sister-in-law (25)
In this way, she became a red mushroom buyer herself.
As for the price, it has increased by 20% to the purchase price of ordinary red mushrooms on the market.
The red mushrooms of my uncle's house are in better condition, and the selling price is completely reasonable.
This time I came to see my grandmother, and she brought the money by the way.
"Auntie, this is the money for red mushrooms. Don't tell me to eat, where can I finish eating so much, I helped you sell five catties. ”
Li Axiang refused to accept it at first, feeling strange and embarrassed.
The wild mushrooms picked up in the mountains are nothing more than spending some time drying them, which is worth it when the niece specially sent money.
But Xu Yin insisted on giving it, and said that she wouldn't accept it this time, and she wouldn't accept anything from their family after that.
"You kid!" Li Axiang glanced at her with disgust, picked up her apron and wiped her hands, and reluctantly took the money.
When I got it in my hand, I felt that something was wrong, and I looked down: "Wow! Why so many? ”
"It's not much, it's the normal purchase price in the city. Auntie, you must have been underpriced by those people before. Just press it a little, after all, they come to collect it, and the road fare, freight and everything will cost money, but if you press it hard, you save it, and I will help you sell it when you turn around. ”
Hearing Xu Yin say this, Li Axiang nodded.
As soon as the two were compared, she realized how cheap they were sold before, and they were simply cheaper than those black-hearted middlemen.
It's no wonder that every time those people come, they say "don't make money" and "if you don't do it, you have to take the freight to get in", in fact, if you really don't make money, why do you have to be so active every year?
They used to be stupid and didn't figure out the twists and turns.
"Thanks to you, otherwise we would still be in the dark." Li Ah said with a huff.
"No wonder they came to collect it this year, and I said that I would not sell it, but I would keep it and give it away, and they persuaded me for a long time. He also said to give me a price increase, as long as I don't tell other people...... Phew! The next time I see them, I will definitely expose their true colors! It's so hateful! How much has we been taken advantage of over the years! ”
Xu Yin patted her hand soothingly: "Auntie, next time, you and your uncle will come by yourself, without going through their hands." This matter is also very simple, organize a few people, and collect the idle mountain goods in the hands of the villagers before the gang comes to the door, and pick them up to sell in the city. Although it is not easy to go out once, it is certainly more profitable than collecting it at the door. If you contribute more and give more points, the villagers will not say anything. ”
The more Li Axiang listened, the brighter her eyes became: "That's right! A little bit bit, it's not cost-effective to pick it out and sell it, but isn't it too much to integrate? I'll talk to your uncle! Let him go to the branch secretary and say. Yin Yin! If this thing is done, you will be the hero of our Daao Village! Aunt Ming will make you air-dried rabbits to eat. ”
Xu Yin smiled and waved her hand.
She just came up with an idea, whether it works or not depends on the specific person.
Fortunately, the people in Daao Village are poor, but they are not lazy. Poverty is also due to the lack of fertile land and inconvenient transportation. You can't starve to death by relying on the mountains, but you won't be rich for a while.
Xu Yin's idea for them was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, causing a wave of ripples.
The village cadres feel that it is feasible, anyway, there is little fertile land in their village, and the autumn harvest is not very busy, so four or five families send a person to go to the city with the collected mountain goods, and there is the address of the dry goods market left by Xu Yin, so there is no need to carry the burden to wander around.
In this case, you can go down the mountain in the dark on the first day, find a small hotel in the county for one night, and get up early the next day to go to the market and sell it.
"My niece also said that matsutake mushrooms, bamboo sunflowers, and red mushrooms are more valuable than ordinary mushrooms, so everyone picks them out and puts them separately. Others, if you don't want to sell cheaply, it's best to classify them, fungus to fungus, mushrooms to mushrooms. The big markets are priced by category. Also, when the bamboo shoots are dried, a little bit of the old stalks, in short, the appearance is better, and the purchase price will be higher. ”
"Did you hear what Jin Xiong said?" The village party secretary stood on a big rock and asked in a loud voice.
"I heard you!"
"Done! Then do as he says! From now on, our mountain goods will not be sold to those people. ”
"It's definitely not going to sell!"
"They used to be cheaper!"
After the village party secretary finished speaking, he was about to wave his hand to end the meeting, when Uncle Geng suddenly remembered his niece's suggestion, and hurriedly added:
"Most of this year's mountain goods have been taken away, but it is still early to close the mountain with heavy snow, everyone can dry another batch out, it doesn't matter if the amount is not much, we should go to test the water before the year, I heard that the people in the city swept the New Year's goods before the New Year and swept it crazy, and it can be sold at a good price!"
When the mountain people of Daao Village heard this, they went into the mountains to collect mushrooms and planing winter bamboo shoots with great energy.
Occasionally, pheasants and hares are caught, made into smoked chickens and wind rabbits, and they are also planned to be sold in the market.
If you can't sell it, you can bring it back for the New Year to eat, anyway, I picked two baskets, and I don't care about this little bit more.
Xu Yin really didn't expect that his casual idea made Daao Village enter the daily life of mountain farmers in the early nineties who carried their burdens out of the mountains and became rich by selling mountain goods.
She was really a little restless during this time, because her sister-in-law's due date was approaching.
Although I was well prepared and chose to use the most positive response to resist the worst plan, I still worried about whether the plot would be too strong to reverse when it came to the most critical turning point in the book.
"Yin, why have you been distracted lately? Even if you get out of class, why are you distracted in class? It's all named by the old class, which is not like you. Is there something going on at home? ”
Tong Guihua noticed her abnormality, and couldn't help but ask after class one day.
Xu Yin held her cheeks, flipped through the pages of the book one by one, and spit out the distress in her heart with her tablemates:
"My sister-in-law is about to give birth, my brother is still in the army, and my parents ...... Alas, in short, it's quite uneasy. ”
"Hey, what's this! Are you going to pick her up when you go back this weekend? My mother has an acquaintance in the hospital, and she opened a ward in advance, what is more professional than the care of doctors and nurses? ”
Xu Yin actually has this idea, but she is afraid that her parents will not agree. went to the hospital three days in advance, and coaxed her mother for a long time.
"Then you say that you should have a prenatal checkup in advance, and now many pregnant women will go to the hospital in advance to do a B ultrasound or something."
Of course, those people were there to have sons.
Xu Yin's eyes lit up: "That's right!" I didn't think of giving my sister-in-law a prenatal checkup. Thank you, osmanthus! ”
After finishing the morning class, as soon as she put away her schoolbag, she pedaled her bicycle to rush home, and called her sister-in-law to pack her clothes and go to the hospital for prenatal checkup.
Sister-in-law Xu has always felt uneasy these days, and she didn't go into the house to clean up and change when she heard the words.
Xu Mu was not very happy with a straight face.
Xu Yin ran over and pinched her shoulders:
"Mom, you can rest assured at home, don't worry, there is me. I will report to my sister-in-law after she gives birth, and it will not be too late for you to go to the hospital again. Recently, the family has been tired of you and your father, and you are so old! ”
Mother Xu was very useful, but she didn't want to pay attention to her with a straight face.
The girl has become more and more assertive recently, and she can open a dyeing workshop with a little color, and she must be even more embarrassed if she gives a good face.
The sister-in-law came to the hospital, and Xu Yin paid according to the standard of maternal physical examination and accompanied her sister-in-law upstairs for physical examination.
It's a loss, otherwise she would really regret it for the rest of her life.
