Chapter 183: Mushrooms After the Rain
On this day, the little couple just settled the account for the funeral team who came back from the work, and everyone thanked them one after another and left the Chu family's shop, only the last two stayed behind, it was the two brothers of the Liu family in Songjia Village, and the two brothers were the funeral team of the little couple who entered together, and they were pushing each other to come to Chu Yi at the moment.
"What's the matter with the two Liu brothers?"
The older brother of the Liu family scratched his hair and said, "Boss, our brothers have something to say."
"There's no outsider here, just say something straight."
The eldest brother of the Liu family looked behind him and saw that no one was passing by outside the shop, so he said with confidence: "Song Laosan of our village, boss, what is your impression?"
Seeing that Chu Yi didn't react, it seemed that he didn't remember this person, and the younger brother of the Liu family hurriedly added: "It's the day our brothers came to our shop to apply for a job, and they had to ask the boss to give you money every month, and in the end, they didn't succeed and left angrily!"
Speaking of this, the little couple still had some impressions of the man, and when they heard the two of them mention this person so mysteriously, they had some guesses in their hearts: "But what did he do?"
Hearing this, the two brothers nodded desperately and said, "That's right, Song Laosan's guy has never been an honest person, since he didn't come into our funeral team last time, he has always talked about something in the village since he went back, and he always sang for our funeral team."
"That's right, what else do you say that we are all brainless, and we don't even know if you play tricks, and you think you have picked up a treasure!"
Shen Luzhu glanced sideways at the fat son who was lying on the kang at this time, and the tanuki you were patting each other with one paw and one palm, and comforted the two of them and said, "Why listen to his villain's words, we really put the money in our pockets, it's a serious matter, just if he envies us."
The eldest brother of the Liu family nodded: "The boss lady is right, our brothers also thought so at the beginning, he Song Laosan likes to say whatever he wants, his mouth grows on him, and his hands and feet grow on us, can he still stop our brothers from earning money?" But recently, this thing is getting more and more wrong, a few days ago, this Song Laosan actually came to the door to find us!"
Chu Yi frowned slightly, this matter is a little strange, could it be that Song Laosan was really stupid enough to come to the door to stop the pair of Liu family brothers and prevent them from doing their work: "I went to your house?"
The younger brother of the Liu family said: "No, I went directly into my yard without saying anything, and said something shamelessly, telling our brothers to quit their jobs here and follow him in the future!"
The little couple looked at each other in shock, and before they could say anything, the elder brother of the Liu family hurriedly said, "Of course, how can our brothers agree!" If we really quit the work of our funeral team and follow him Song Laosan, then we will really lack our brains!"
"Our brothers really didn't take this matter seriously, they just thought that he Song Laosan was crazy with sheep, so he didn't tell the boss."
Shen Luzhu asked softly, "What did he do?"
"Yesterday we didn't have a job, our brothers were idle, so they ran to the back mountain to catch a rabbit or something, and when we rushed back, we happened to see that Song Laosan and Wang Jiang of our funeral team were in the same place, so our brothers quietly leaned over and listened, but boss, guess what, the two were negotiating the price there!"
The younger brother of the Liu family said angrily: "I guess I hid in the mountains because I was afraid of being seen, but it wasn't that I was bumped into by our brothers, this Song Laosan is really a dog who can't change his shit!"
Chu Yi asked, "Then they have negotiated?"
One of the people doing the work today is the one named Wang Jiang, but the young couple has never noticed the difference between this person and the past, and they have not seen the person come to mention the resignation, guessing that either the price has not been negotiated, or they just want to earn the wages for this job first.
"It shouldn't have been done, then Song Laosan scolded and scolded when he left, and said a lot of unpleasant things, but what he did was really disgusting, how could he really follow him Song Laosan if the price was right?"
"And that Song Laosan, it's not a good thing, he didn't succeed in finding the two of us, so he ran to find Wang Jiang again, and he didn't know who he had found in the middle, why did he recognize these people!"
「
Boss, boss, the two of us feel that this is not right, think about it, we still have to talk to you, even if we can't do anything, we should be careful. Then Song Lao Sansan has a grudge against you, so he deliberately picked the people of our funeral team to dig the foot of the wall, maybe he wanted to make us yellow."
Chu Yi said in a deep voice: "We know about this, and thank you two brothers for telling us."
"We just can't get used to the lack of morality that Song Laosan did, the boss and the boss don't think we're talking too much."
Shen Luzhu smiled: "We thank you too late, where can we hate you."
The Liu brothers said what they wanted to say, so they didn't stay longer, and left the Chu family shop after saying goodbye to the little couple, and the little couple also came to the time when they should close the door in the past, locked the door of the shop, and returned to their own yard.
There was still a while before dinner, the little couple simply returned to the room with a baby and a cat, Shen Luzhu put the fat son back into the shaker, and he leaned on Chu Yi and chatted: "I really didn't expect that the first person to compete with us for business would be that Song Laosan that day."
Chu Yi casually pinched the soft flesh on his wife's hand: "I really didn't expect it."
In fact, as early as when preparing for the trading of this funeral team, Shen Luzhu had already expected this kind of thing today, after all, this transaction was different from the previous paper money trading, there was no too high technical content, and it was not something original to them, and it was normal for people to learn to compete with them in a similar way.
No matter what the years are, ancient or modern, as long as you do something to earn money, there will be many people who follow the trend and compete. But this kind of thing, at most, you can only say that the other party has learned the means of making money, but so what, there is no law that stipulates, and this business can only be done by the first one who comes up with it.
Just like their family's paper money trading, yellow burning paper, and scattering money for nothing, but as long as a shop that does funeral-related business, there is no one that does not sell, people only know which one sells, which one sells cheaply and well, who can remember who was the first one in the first place?
So for this matter, the reaction of the little couple was surprisingly calm, as long as the other party did not use any despicable means to maliciously compete, they could all accept it happily.
In addition to the difference in price, the service consciousness and attitude of the long fight for a long time, if you can add some services or projects that others do not have, so that the competitiveness goes up, and you are naturally not afraid of no business to do.
However, there is one point, the little couple still very much agrees with what the Liu brothers said, that Song Lao Sanba is to hate them, so he deliberately disgusted people, and specially asked for people from their funeral team to dig the foot of the wall, but it doesn't hurt, if they really dig it up, they will recruit it again.
Song Laosan kept looking for the people of the Chu family's funeral team, in addition to being really a little dark and vindictive, he also had a dream of bringing business directly from the Chu family to him, but he made a loud calculation, but no one moved.
Failed to pry the corner of Chu Yixiao's family, Song Laosan could only retreat and began to recruit some other people in his own village to do it, he originally thought that this was a profitable business, as long as there was a person to work, he could live a life of counting money at home every day, but in the end he found that he didn't even have the silver to buy grave digging tools.
Although Song Laosan's plan was stillborn, not long after that, all kinds of funeral teams in nearby villages began to work in the village like mushrooms after a rain.
On the afternoon of this day, the Shen brothers came to visit their sister and nephew in the Chu family's old house, and the young couple simply did not open the shop, and the family set up a square table in the shade of the persimmon tree in the yard, drinking herbal tea and chatting.
As he was talking, Chu Ping pushed the door from outside the courtyard and walked in, saw the scene in the courtyard, was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I just wondered why you didn't open a shop this afternoon, cousin, it turned out that the Shen family brothers came!"
"I didn't have much business to do in the afternoon, so I stole half a day's leisure."
Shen Songjie beckoned to Chu Ping and said, "Brother Chu Ping came at the right time, come and have a cup of herbal tea and some pastries, we haven't been together for a long time."
It's chattering."
Chu Ping was not polite, and sat down directly: "It just so happens that I have nothing to do, I just came to tell my cousin and sister-in-law about the situation I just inquired about from the village next to me. In order to grab business, they pressed the price to a low price, and now there are several groups who can't hold on to the yellow, and besides, there are no good goods, and the male workers earn less, who can give you the strength to work, they are all lazy and lazy, so that some people's white things have been delayed, and the main family is said to have been making trouble in the village for several days, so scared that those people don't even dare to go out of the house recently, they really deserve it!"
Hearing this, Chu Yi looked at his wife and smiled a little proudly: "It's still Azhu smart, and he guessed everything, it's right for us not to follow the price reduction."
Shen Luzhu smiled a little embarrassedly, not that she was so powerful, but that she had experienced a market economy for a few years more than others.
Shen Songjie also boasted when he heard this: "My Luzhu seems to be really a business wizard, there is no idea of doing business that you have come up with over the years, and it is thanks to your sister, I really have a lot of light for my second brother!"
The Shen family's traditional Chinese medicine business and incense pill business are also doing well now, and the Shen family has to sigh every time they mention it, they used to be short-sighted, and Shen Luzhu's ideas were wild, but now it seems that his daughter is the smartest among the children.
Shen Chuanbai also nodded and said, "Luzhu is smart when he is young."
Somehow, the original small talk turned into a praise for Shen Luzhu's conference, as if he saw his wife's embarrassment, Chu Yi hurriedly changed the topic and said: "We recently launched a discount for hiring a funeral team to buy paper money, and the activity of giving away wooden tombstones is also good, and the business of the funeral team is now better than a while ago."
"It's Xianggong's tombstone carved well!"
In the countryside, there are few tombstones carved with a single stone, and most of them are carved with wooden boards, and even some perfunctory, and the ligatures are written instead of carved.
Carving a few words on the wooden board is quite simple for Chu Yi, so he simply added an attractive gimmick to the business of his funeral team, but he didn't expect the effect to be good.
Holding Shen Songjie, who was coaxing on the side, suddenly had a bold idea: "Luzhu Ayi, if you also move the business to the town and do a good job, there are many people in the town, and the income must be much more than in the village!"
