92 A few shopkeepers rushed to buy goods
Along the way, Lin Qianqian kept reflecting in his heart.
I was so busy last night that I was distracted by a lot of things, and I forgot about the car.
Yesterday she refused to tell the villagers the secret recipe for making konjac tofu, and even if they went out to borrow a car last night, they might not be able to borrow it, but they would not be as passive as this morning.
Along the way, Lin Mingming kept asking: "Sister, where are we going to borrow a car when we get to the county?" If only this car were the one to deliver, today's goods would not have been delivered before the sun rises. ”
When the sun rises, it is the busiest time for the morning market, and if the goods are not delivered before then, the shopkeepers who order the goods will miss the morning market, and the business of the day will be greatly reduced.
Lin Qianqian was silent and did not speak, she pushed the car while calling up the system.
She searched the system for vehicle items and found that there were all kinds of cars.
She took a fancy to the donkey cart at a glance.
Yesterday, when Lin Mingming was pushing the stone mill, she thought that she would buy a donkey after delivering the goods today, and by the way, she would buy a donkey cart or carriage.
This is the good thing she mysteriously told Lin Mingming yesterday.
There are a lot of things that can be loaded and unloaded in the carriage, but no one in their family can drive a horse at present, and it is estimated that they will not be able to use it when they buy it back, or buy a donkey cart actually, when they do not deliver the goods, the donkey can also be pulled and milled, so that a person can be vacated to do other things in the process of konjac tofu, and the efficiency has been greatly improved.
She looked at the price of the donkey cart, a donkey cost ten taels of silver, and a flatbed cart also cost ten taels of silver, so that a donkey cart cost twenty taels of silver, which is not something that ordinary farmers can afford.
However, there are more than 300 taels of silver in her storage space, and she has been coming in non-stop in the past few days, and she will continue to come in in the future.
A donkey cart can carry about 1,000 catties, and now the daily order quantity can be delivered in one trip.
In this way, twenty-one cars are not expensive.
Lin Qianqian figured this out, and after deciding to finish delivering the goods, he quietly found an opportunity to buy the donkey cart.
The wheelbarrow entered the vegetable field, and several shopkeepers hurriedly greeted him with buckets.
When they saw that there was only one cart of konjac tofu, several people were dumbfounded at the same time.
"Before, what's going on? Why are there only four barrels of goods? Shopkeeper Sun asked while moving the bucket down.
He ordered 300 catties today, and there are only four barrels here, each barrel can hold about 50 catties, and this car is only 200 catties.
Could it be that someone in other vegetable farms ordered more goods, so the Lin family gave the goods to others first?
Shopkeeper Sun was so anxious that after moving a bucket, he was ready to move another bucket.
But Shopkeeper Fang, Shopkeeper Zhao and Shopkeeper Yao have long been dominating a bucket by themselves.
"Oh, Qianqian, why are there so few today? That's not enough to sell, huh? ”
"Yes, before that, I specially told you yesterday that I wanted to order 300 catties, but you promised it well yesterday, you can't give it to me less."
"Before, I had less stock of other vegetables, so I wanted to do this konjac tofu business wholeheartedly, you can't give it to me less, then our whole family will drink the northwest wind."
....
Lin Qianqian and Lin Mingming hurriedly explained.
"I don't have a car at home, after this trip, we will borrow a car and go back and pull it over." Lin Mingming was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and he put the rope around his neck and prepared to leave.
Lin Qianqian smiled and said to a few shopkeepers: "Don't worry, a few uncles, the konjac tofu has been ready, and I will send it later, today I only have one car, and I can't send so many at once, there are four barrels, fifty catties per barrel, one bucket per person, everyone will deal with it first, and after half an hour, we will send it again." ”
Shopkeeper Sun looked at the sky and hurriedly said: "Oh, I encountered such a thing, then you should go back and pull it over again, but you can't finish this car in one trip, I will say okay first, and all the goods pulled on the next trip must be given to me." ”
"Lao Sun, this is your mistake, the car of the former family can obviously only pull two hundred catties, and the goods delivered on the next trip will be given to your family, so the three of us don't do business, right?" Shopkeeper Fang immediately protested.
Wait a minute, it's morning market time, many people rush to eat breakfast and go to work, miss this hour, most of the day's business will be gone, can he not be in a hurry?
....
Several shopkeepers instantly blushed, and Lin Qianqian hurriedly said loudly: "Everyone, everyone, don't worry, I promise that everyone will have goods in half an hour, everyone will be busy first, let's go back quickly." ”
Now the situation is already like this, and several shopkeepers also know that it is useless for them to argue, and now they can only believe in Lin Qianqian, hoping that the goods can be delivered to them as promised, otherwise their business will not only be affected today, but also the flow of customers in the future.
"Before, Xiao Ming, go back quickly, we are waiting for you."
"Yes, yes, let's stop arguing, let's let them go back quickly."
...
Lin Qian answered, followed Lin Mingming and hurried back to the village.
Lin Mingming looked east and west as he walked, with a sad face.
Out of the vegetable market, Lin Qianqian pointed to a street at random, and said to Lin Mingming: "Xiao Ming, you push the cart back first, and I'll go find someone to borrow a car." ”
Lin Mingming looked at the street strangely, although the street was spacious, but because it was too early, many stalls did not come out, and he couldn't see what kind of business this street was doing at all.
In his memory, his eldest sister didn't know anyone who lived on this street.
He was confused.
But Lin Qianqian had already gone out of the way, and turned around to urge him: "Xiao Ming, go back quickly, after you get home, if I haven't gone back yet, you and your father will hurry up and send another car over." ”
Hearing his eldest sister's uncertain tone, Lin Mingming was sad to death.
His eldest sister has always been full of confidence and is very sure of doing things, but now that she is so unsure, he is starting to be afraid, afraid that today's goods will not be delivered, and after those shopkeepers are angry, will they not take the goods from them anymore?
They finally have so much silver income in a day, if it is gone, how will their family live in the future?
Lin Mingming stood in place and looked sadly at Lin Qianqian, who was slowly walking away.
Lin Qian walked a long way, and when he looked back, his stupid brother was still standing in place, looking at the sad face on his face, he was about to cry, as if she was going to die.
Lin Qianqian waved at him and motioned for him to hurry home.
Lin Mingming had no choice but to push the wheelbarrow and walk forward lonely.
At first, he was walking slowly, and as he walked, he suddenly thought of what his eldest sister said.
If the eldest sister can't borrow a car, then they can only use this wheelbarrow to deliver goods today.
They can send 200 catties in one trip, and those shopkeepers have a total of 800 catties, so how many trips do they have to send?
Lin Mingming couldn't figure it out for a while, but he knew that the next trip would definitely not be finished, and the more he thought about it, the more nervous he became, and the speed under his feet couldn't help but slowly speed up.
