Chapter Eighty-Three: Returning with a Full Load
Xiang Wan couldn't help but ask: "I heard that there are many matsutake mushrooms and bamboo sunflower ginseng in the mountains, are there also them in these villages?" ”
When the village chief saw the little girl who looked as beautiful as a New Year's doll, he couldn't help but smile kindly: "Yes, there are all these matsutake mushrooms, but the ginseng is not easy to find, and it is hard to find one for several years, the ginseng is in the deep mountains, and no one dares to enter it at ordinary times, so every year during the winter hunting, the village organizes strong laborers to enter the mountain, and when you are lucky, you can bring one out, and most years are not high." ”
Ginseng is a natural thing, and the longer it is grown, the better.
Xiang Wan is not disappointed, it is already an unexpected joy to have matsutake and bamboo sunflowers.
Xiang Wan nodded quietly to Yin Zhengjiang on the side.
Yin Zhengjiang then spoke: "We made a special trip from Beishi to drive a truck over, how to say that it is necessary to fill the truck to make this trip worthwhile, but I don't know if there are so many mountain goods in the village." ”
When the village chief heard that he was going to buy a truckload of mountain goods, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was ecstatic: "Some of them are not enough, but they can also be called to the mountains to find them, but there are not many of them in the village." ”
Yin Zhengjiang guessed that she wanted matsutake mushrooms more from the moment she took the initiative to ask Wan, so he nodded: "Then please trouble the village chief to arrange someone to go to the mountains to find matsutake and bamboo sunflowers, how about the price of three cents a catty?" ”
"Okay, okay, I'll arrange for someone to go to the mountains to look for it in a while, but I don't think I can find much of this kind of thing for a while, it will take two or three days, let's try to find some more back."
Seeing that the two didn't speak, the village chief was afraid that the two of them would have concerns, and he didn't want to fly away from the benefits of his mouth, so he hurriedly spoke: "That's the case, although there are many goods in our village, no one usually comes to collect them, and it costs too much to take those things home to make, so I don't have much to prepare." ”
Yin Zhengjiang nodded: "Then the village chief has worked hard to arrange these two days." ”
"It's okay, I have to thank you, no one has come to collect those things before, and I don't know if I can exchange money, oh yes, I'll go with you to see your car in a while, and then estimate how many mountain goods you can find."
Yin Zhengjiang smiled and nodded.
After that, the three of them walked towards the village committee, and the village chief smiled from ear to ear when he saw the big truck driven by Yin Zhengjiang.
Such a big truck, the village is rare all year round, I am afraid that it will take thousands of catties of mountain goods to be filled, thousands of catties of mountain goods, how much does it have to be!
The village chief didn't dare to think about it, and when he thought about it, he was afraid that he couldn't stop laughing.
After seeing the size of the freight car, he set a three-day time with Yin Zhengjiang.
Seeing that the two were leaving, the village chief hurriedly said: "If the two of you don't dislike it, just stay in the village, and it's troublesome to run back and forth to the town every day." ”
Yin Zhengjiang didn't have an opinion, it was the same wherever he lived, and turned his head to look at Xiang Wan to ask for her opinion.
Xiang Wan nodded slightly.
Yin Zhengjiang nodded towards the village chief: "It's troublesome to the village chief." ”
"Don't bother, you come all the way to the village to buy things, but also for the benefit of our village, it just so happens that our children are not at home during this time, just stay in my house, that is, the food in the countryside is simple, you don't dislike it."
Yin Zhengjiang said that he didn't mind, and thought about whether to go to the town to buy some snacks and biscuits for Xiang Guan.
The village chief first went to the field to call back his eldest son, told him that Yin Zhengjiang wanted to buy mountain goods, and then asked him to organize people to go to the mountains to find mountain goods.
After arranging the most important thing, the village chief took Xiang Wan and the two to their home, and introduced the situation in the village to Yin Zhengjiang as they went.
After arriving home, the village chief asked his wife to clean up the two empty houses, and then took the two of them to sit in the hall and drink tea.
Looking at the four or five tea leaves floating in the bowl, Xiang Guan Mian took a sip without changing color.
Most of the countryside is boiled water, and tea is a luxury for the countryside at this time, and the village chief can entertain the two with tea, which is already quite important.
Although he was used to drinking good tea, after drinking the bowl of bland and tasteless water in front of him, Xiang Wan was not unwell, but very happy.
For three days, he lived in the village chief's house, during which Xiang Wan followed the villagers to the mountains for a walk, Yin Zhengjiang was very uneasy, and he was by the side throughout the whole process.
When the people in the village first heard that someone was coming to collect the goods, they were all curious about who it was, so there were often men, women and children hanging around in front of the village chief's house, including children.
There is money to be made, and the people in the village are enthusiastic, and it takes three days to fill the back compartment of the truck.
The next place that was originally scheduled could only be stopped, and the two returned to North City with a full load.
Along the way, Xiang Guan was in a very good mood, because he was delayed for a long time when he weighed and paid in the morning, which led to a distance from Beishi at night, Yin Zhengjiang was worried about Xiang Guan's body, so he found a hotel to stop, ready to rest for one night, and set off early tomorrow morning.
The hotels near North City are relatively complete, and the environment is much better than the hotels in the town before.
Xiang Wan slept comfortably, and set off with Yin Zhengjiang to return to Beishi early the next morning.
"It's estimated that it will be noon when I get to North City."
Xiang Wan looked at the scenery along the way, and his face was full of demureness: "Then we will go back after dinner, Uncle Yin has worked hard these days, and he has been running around with me." ”
"No, what's so hard about it."
Xiang Wan smiled, and Yin Zhengjiang took care of himself along the way.
When the two arrived in Beishi, it was exactly twelve o'clock, so they simply went to the state-run hotel for lunch, and then Yin Zhengjiang drove home to Wanguan.
Fortunately, Xiang Xiong has already returned, and he can help move all the mountain goods off the car.
"Girl, don't move."
"Xiaoguan, you go and rest."
Xiang Guan was about to step forward to help move things, but was stopped by Xiang Xiong and Yin Zhengjiang.
The two men looked at each other and smiled, and then said to Xiong: "Girl, these things are heavy, don't move, it's not good if you flash your waist." ”
"Yes, Xiaoguan, you're tired these days, go and rest for a while."
Xiang Wan really wanted to say that he was not tired at all, but Yin Zhengjiang was the most tired driving these days.
"Dad, Uncle Yin, then I'll move these light ones, so that you don't have to make one less trip."
Seeing Xiang Wan's insistence, the two didn't say much.
It didn't take long for the three of them to move all their things into the yard, and Yin Zhengjiang didn't stay long, and drove back to find Peng Qingliang.
Xiang Xiong looked at the pile of mountain goods in the yard, and his face was full of disbelief: "You bought them all back?" What do you do with so many mountain goods? ”
Xiang Wan pretended to be mysterious: "I know a big boss who wants to buy these things, so I went to the countryside to collect a car and came back." ”
"And when does he need it?"
Xiang Wan thought for a while and said, "It's just these two days, Dad, have you and Uncle Deng gained anything from going out this time?" ”
At the mention of this, Xiang Xiongke was in good spirits, puffed up his chest and said: "I made a small profit of 80 yuan, which is enough for our father and daughter to live for a few months, and we may have to go out in two days, take advantage of your summer vacation to earn enough for your high school tuition and living expenses." ”
