Chapter 12: Selling Flowers in the City
Courtyard.
Li Xueyang's words are still in his ears, word by word, sonorous and powerful.
Zhang Man next to her secretly admired, after two days of wandering, she also got to know Shanwan Village roughly, most of the young adults either farmed or went out to work.
In this poor and remote place, he is the only one who can have this kind of consciousness of making money and developing.
But getting rich is not just words, once you succeed, it will inevitably make a person's future take off, but if you fail, you have to pay a price.
But when the words fell into Li Daqing's ears, they became extremely harsh.
His face suddenly turned blue and white for a while, and he didn't know how to refute it, so he looked at Zhang Man as if asking for help.
I thought that there was a conflict between the two, and the leader from the city would definitely help him speak.
But Zhang Man waved his hand, and then smiled slightly.
"It's really nice to say, it's better like this, Uncle Daqing, you just let him try the tractor, I want to see what he can toss it into."
After making trouble for a long time, the tractor still had to be lent out, Li Daqing was suddenly a little unconvinced, but he was indeed a little surprised in his heart, Zhang Man would actually help the other party talk today, which made him a little unbelievable.
But as soon as the leader spoke, he naturally didn't want to save face, and looked at Li Xueyang impatiently.
"Since Leader Zhang has spoken, then I will give you the tractor!"
"Thank you, Uncle Daqing."
A smile suddenly appeared on Li Xueyang's face, and he also cast a little gratitude to Zhang Man next to him.
"But, we have to make a bet, if you sell, then I don't want to be a tractor administrator, if you don't sell, then you have to apologize to me at the village radio station, and give me fifty yuan, how about it?"
"Oh yes, there's one more condition you have to say yes."
"Whether your flowers can be sold or not, when you come back, you have to fill up the tractor's fuel tank for me!"
"Do you dare to bet?"
Li Daqing looked at Li Xueyang provocatively.
"Okay!"
"It just so happens that Miss Zhang is here today, so she will be a witness for us, and this matter is settled!"
If Li Xueyang dares to do this, then he must have this certainty.
50 yuan seems like a lot, but he has the confidence to give it without need!
"I'll go back to the house and get you the tractor handlebar, and you'll wait here for me."
Li Daqing returned to the house.
Li Xueyang looked at Zhang Man next to him, smiled slightly, and said, "Thank you for helping me speak this time, it's really thanks to you." ”
He has always had a clear distinction between good and evil, and he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to ease the relationship between the two.
What's more, after this incident, he felt that the other party's personality was not so bad, and it was indeed a good choice to be a friend.
What he didn't expect was that Zhang Man raised his chin slightly, snorted lightly and said, "I don't mean anything else, I just see that you are so confident and want you to recognize the reality." ”
Although Zhang Man was a little curious about Li Xueyang in his heart, he was not convinced
"The flower industry in the city is really good, but it has nothing to do with you."
"If the quality in the city is good, the sea will go, and this time I will let you go, just to let you recognize the reality, you can't sell this flower."
Her personality has always been like this, and it is difficult to convince her.
A woman's heart, a needle under the sea, he didn't bother to guess.
Li Xueyang just smiled and said, "Then you'll know when the results come back." ”
At this moment, Li Daqing just took out the tractor.
"You have to drive well on the road, and when you come back, you fill me up with oil, will you agree to that?"
A tank of oil for this tractor is not cheap, it has to be dozens of dollars larger!
In this era when the monthly salary is only more than 100 yuan, this is already a huge amount of money.
What's more, I only need to borrow it once, isn't this deliberately making things difficult for myself?
But if you want to say that you refuse, then you have to pull the skin for a while, Li Xueyang calculated the profit, and immediately took the tractor handle, and said: "Okay, I promise you!" ”
drove the tractor back to the door of the house with Zhang Man, Li Xueyang packed the flowers, and also notified his sister Li Jun, the brother and sister were just about to leave.
However, the next second.
But I heard Zhang Man's voice coming.
"I'll go with you!"
Li Xueyang was a little confused: "What are you going to do?" ”
"I'll see how you can't sell flowers."
After speaking, he kicked his legs directly and sat in the back row of the tractor.
Faced with such a stubborn character, Li Xueyang stood beside the tractor, smiled bitterly, and said: "I can let you go, but you also have to promise me something, after you get there, everything has to be arranged by me." ”
"Okay! I promise you! ”
Seeing that Zhang Man quickly agreed, Li Xueyang didn't want to say anything more.
After some twists and turns, things are finally back on track, and as for the bet he made with the other party, Li Xueyang was almost not very worried.
Chunlan, this is a flower that you don't have to worry about selling, it's a big deal to reduce the price a little when the time comes, and it's absolutely no problem to make up a fuel cost.
From Shanwan Village, there are more than ten miles of mountain roads, the road is rugged, and there are even several sharp turns, if you are not a foreigner, it is really frightening to drive in this place.
But fortunately, it's all cement here, which saved Li Xueyang's buttocks.
It took a full hour to finally get out of the mountain road, and then there was a national highway, which was built wide but there were few vehicles.
Li Xueyang thinks about it and knows that most people in this era are actually not very wealthy, and those who can drive a car are extremely rich people, and the number is naturally different.
Even the tractor that Li Xueyang was sitting on can be regarded as a relatively good means of transportation.
On this national highway.
Li Xueyang could even see horse-drawn carts and ox carts, which were very slow, driving on the side of the road, and they didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
Of course.
Li Xueyang also saw several of the same tractors, and the ones behind the other party were either some game, some special products, or some grain.
There is indeed no one as empty as Li Xueyang.
After all, for the consumption level of local people, the fuel money required for this trip to the city is indeed not a small amount.
So when a tractor enters the city, the things in it may be put together by several families, and their purpose is naturally very simple, that is, to take these things to the city to exchange for money.
The time has come to more than nine o'clock, the sun is shining, and layers of warmth are pouring into the body.
"The county seat has arrived!"
Li Xueyang turned around and shouted, and found that Zhang Man and his sister had fallen asleep leaning on each other, and after some shouting, the two woke up with sleepy eyes.
Li Xueyang chose a main road.
The upside is that the traffic isn't too low, and with the fact that it's all young people coming back this week, they're more likely to buy flowers.
"Work hard, work hard!"
"Li Jun, you set up the stall, Miss Zhang, you are responsible for moving the flowers down and setting them up."
Li Xueyang commanded in an orderly manner and pointed out a space.
Zhang Man next to him had just been disturbed and woke up in his sleep, and he was unhappy in his heart, and when he heard this at the moment, he was about to slow down.
Li Xueyang hurriedly shouted:
"You...... You promised me before, everything is under command, do you want to break your promise? ”
"Hurry up, now is the time for a lot of people."
In desperation, Zhang Man could only stuff his head and began to arrange flowers.
But the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, she was a dignified cadre, and she actually did these things, and she was angry.
"If you can't sell it, see how I humiliate you."
Li Xueyang was not idle, and wrote two words on the cardboard next to him.
Sell Flowers!
