68 Bought pigs, the train wagons were gone
A pig is a live pig, and the price is definitely different from pork, because live pigs not only have pork, but also pig blood, pig offal, pig bones, and so on.
Moreover, when others slaughter pigs, it is also profitable to sell meat.
Generally, the meat yield of pigs can be 60%~80%, and wild boars are relatively much worse.
Uncle Stick looked like a "stick child", he looked at his charming little daughter-in-law, obviously the latter was the head of the family.
There were two outsiders, Wang Yuan's father and son, present, and Aunt Stick'er also saved face for Uncle Stick'er, and said with a smile:
"If you are in charge, then we will sell pigs?"
"Sell, sell!"
Several people immediately left the house and came to the pigsty, the pigsty was really dirty, there was pig feces everywhere, and even in the winter, there was a smell wafting out.
"Hmph~"
A few pigs arched around in the pigsty, occasionally going to the trough to eat some food scraps.
Wang Yuan asked for two pigs, and Uncle Stick readily agreed, and the remaining pigs were enough for the New Year.
Following.
After eating early in the morning, cousin Wang Hu came to Wang Yuan to play, and the little girl knew that Wang Yuan went to Uncle Stick'er's house, he ran and jogged, and when he came to Uncle Stick'er's house, he found that there were some old men standing in the small courtyard.
Getting into the crowd, Wang Humeng shouted: "Brother, brother, get out of the way, my brother is inside."
Wang Shuai sneered: "The pig is inside, your brother is a pig?"
"Hahaha~"
Several old men laughed instantly.
"Hey~ Wang Shuai'er, are you itchy again? Wasn't enough to beat you up last time, was it? Wang Yuan was standing in the crowd and weighing the pig, and pulled a young man away.
Wang Shuai was choked and speechless, turned his head and left in a huff.
The people around instantly laughed again, looking at Wang Shuai's back as he left with disdain, they felt that this guy was too cowardly.
These guys around are just watching the excitement.
In this era, there were too few entertainment activities in the rural areas of Northeast China, and Uncle Stick's family selling pigs was a new thing, and it was also a little bit related to the interests of each family - if the price was high enough, they wanted to sell it.
The two pigs totaled 460 catties, and when Wang Yuan gave 368 yuan to Uncle Stick, the rapid breathing of the people around rang out.
368 bucks!
Who doesn't envy that?
Uncle Stick also knew that this money was annoying, so he hurriedly put the money roll in his pocket, and then smiled with both hands and a smile on his face, and if he couldn't see it, he didn't have it.
"Xiaoyuan, you are really rich! More than 300 yuan was given in one hand? ”
Hearing the shouts in the crowd, Wang Yuan instantly cried and said: "Which is the money I gave, this money belongs to that buddy in our city, I am an errand runner at best, and I can earn a few dollars of hard-earned money at a time."
"What are you lying to us for? We won't rob you of your money, cut~" Someone let out a suspicious sound.
"Believe it or not, but my buddy is a real cow, and running errands with him is better than farming." Wang Yuan's chin was slightly raised, and there were almost two words written on his face, "Dese".
He can't be blindly modest, explain, and low-key, the villagers are not fools, the more modest he is, the more people will doubt him.
He took out half a box of cigarettes in his pocket and distributed cigarettes to everyone one by one: "Come and try this cigarette, this is a good cigarette, and the big people in the city smoke this."
Maybe my buddy will still use people in the future, and when the time comes, I will call the big guys to go, rest assured, the treatment is absolutely good! ”
People's hearts are complicated, although the rural people are simple, but many times there are a lot of bad thoughts, they all live in a tunzi, and everyone can understand what the situation of each family is.
It turned out that although they were poor, everyone was poor.
Now that Wang Yuan's family has become wealthy at a speed visible to the naked eye, this has been hated by many people, or it has provoked many people to be unconvinced.
But Wang Yuan drew a cake and was willing to take everyone to make money together, and most of the hostility disappeared in an instant, although it felt a bit of a drop in running errands, but Wang Yuan, a "top student", was doing this, so what kind of face could not be saved?
Immediately, some people shouted:
"Xiaoyuan, if you have a job, look for me, be on call!"
"And me, you don't have to pay for food!"
"Haha, what if Xiaoyuan has to give you money, don't you want it?"
There are also people who are more shy and say in a low voice:
"Xiaoyuan, if you need help, you can call me."
……
The price of 8 cents per catty was very attractive, and immediately two more families sold pigs.
After buying a total of 4 pigs, Wang Yuan found another man in the village, Liu Weiguo, and asked him to put on an ox cart to help transport pigs to the city.
Liu Weiguo is in his 40s, with a slightly hunched back, wearing a black cotton jacket with patches and thick cotton shoes, and he is full of shabby and honesty.
Liu Weiguo was the one who just whispered, "If you need help, you can call me", when he heard that he was going to the city, his brain instantly buzzed.
There was helplessness and confusion in his cloudy eyes.
"Little ...... Xiaoyuan, do you have to open a letter of introduction when you go to the city? What is written in the letter, just write about selling pigs? ”
"No need for a letter of introduction, let's go, Uncle Weiguo, I'll follow you on a bicycle."
"Alright, let's go right away."
Liu Weiguo didn't want to be looked down upon by Wang Yuan, a young man, so he held back his courage and started to drive the ox cart directly.
Wang Yuan actually understood Liu Weiguo's hesitation.
The latter has never been to the city since he lived for half his life, and many people coaxed the officials in the city to be vicious...... So it's very normal to be afraid.
A few years after the disbandment of the production team, and a few years after I had an ID card, I was really strict before.
Wang Yuan rode a bicycle on the left, Liu Weiguo drove the ox cart on the right, and a few pigs tied to the car were humming and chirping.
Talking and laughing along the way, Liu Weiguo's worries dissipated a lot, and he laughed at himself: "When you get old, you become a blind streamer again."
……
After entering the city, looking at the neat streets, the low buildings on both sides, and the bicycles and cars running around on the street, Uncle Wei Guo felt very novel.
"Then how can the little iron cart run? It's so capable. ”
There is a yard behind the restaurant, which Li Shen rented to store sundries, and now he is putting 4 pigs inside.
Li Shen was very satisfied with the four pigs, and nodded frequently, and he would definitely make a lot of money by making pork into vegetables and selling them.
"By the way, Xiaoyuan, Zheng Lian was eating in the restaurant, and his sad face seemed to have encountered something difficult."
"Okay, then I'll go meet him."
Wang Yuan frowned instantly, the cash in his hand now is really about to bottom out, but as long as he can sell the pine nuts, he will immediately become a 10,000 yuan household!
"By the way, this is my Uncle Wei Guo, not an outsider, give my uncle a hard dish to eat."
"Don't worry, I'll arrange it."
Li Shen smiled and nodded with Liu Weiguo, the latter instantly felt very face-saving, and Wang Yuan did not ignore him, and the words he said made him listen very comfortably.
Walking quickly out of the small courtyard, he came to the main entrance of the restaurant after a little detour from the alley on the west side, and it was not yet fully enough to eat, and there were not many customers in the restaurant.
Zheng Lian sat in the corner, his brows furrowed and he didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't notice that the cigarette he was holding was about to burn his fingers.
"Uncle Zheng, Uncle Zheng...... Uncle Zheng!
”
"Oops...... it! ”
Zheng Lian, who came back to his senses, hurriedly threw away the cigarette butt, and blew his fingers with a whirring ~, but fortunately there was no big problem.
"Xiaoyuan, when did you come?"
"I've been here for a long time, and you haven't responded to calling you all the time." Wang Yuan sat opposite Zheng Lian, who didn't seem to have slept well, and his face was haggard.
"Tell me, what's going on? It can't be a pine nut thing, right? ”
"You guessed it right." Zheng Lian's tone was three points of despair, three points of helplessness, and four points of anger: "I don't want pine nuts, Xiaoyuan, you can find another buyer, hey~~~"
"Why, you made it clear."
"The train wagon is gone, I don't know which dog thing was robbed, it's really a slot......"
Zheng Lianqi's liver hurt, and he scolded for several minutes before stopping, causing the diners in the store to look sideways, not knowing why this old brother was so irritable.
When Zheng Lian's anger subsided a little, Wang Yuan asked what happened, and now the train capacity is very tight this year, and the main reason for long-distance communication is to rely on trains.
A freight car has a ticket, and having a ticket in hand means that in a specific transportation, this car is used by someone, which is very expensive.
Zheng Lian's ticket was obtained through an irregular channel, and now the ticket has been directly invalidated, but the money spent has not been returned.
But Zheng Lian also inquired, that is, someone took a fancy to his carriage, but as for who the other party was who gave him the news, he did not say in detail.
"Well, maybe...... I can get a train wagon. Wang Yuan groaned slightly, and then said slowly.
"Huh!?"
Zheng Lian sat up straight in an instant, and for a moment he suspected that he had heard it wrong, just relying on Wang Yuan, a rural baby!?
