52. Hunger marketing
Xiao was calmly waiting for Dai Xuemei to bring the tea, and when she saw that she wanted to sit down and talk to her, she quickly put down the teacup.
"Xuemei, I'll do some work for you."
After that, he walked to the tofu rack and looked at the pile of rack baggage in a daze.
Seeing this, Dai Xuemei walked over and introduced Xiao Zhengping to what things they were and how to use them one by one.
After getting started, the two started talking.
"I haven't thanked you properly for the last time you brought me down from the mountain."
"What's the matter, everyone was looking for you at the time, and I was lucky to find you behind my own mountain."
"No matter what, you brought me back, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have fed the bears."
"Brother Pingzi will laugh, you big person, you can't run when you see a bear? How can you feed the bears! ”
"Hey, Xuemei, everyone likes your tofu very much, why do you only sell it once in a few days? Is there not enough beans? ”
"Brother Pingzi, in addition to the long smoke on our mountain, we grow beans, if there are really no beans, I can exchange a piece of tofu for ten catties of beans, how can it not be enough!"
"Then why don't you sell it every day?"
Dai Xuemei lowered her head and smiled, "When I first sold it, I sold it every day, but I couldn't sell it every time, and when I came back, there were more leftovers, and my father and I couldn't eat it, so I had to throw it away in the end." Once, when my father was sick, I didn't sell tofu for several days, and then I went to sell it, and it was all sold out before I got out of Zhangshuya. Since then, I've been selling it every few days, and I've been selling it all out, and many people haven't bought it and ordered it from me. Brother, it's not strange for you to say, obviously I don't make as much tofu as I used to, but after selling it every few days, I earn more when I calculate the account. ”
Dai Xuemei was still busy telling Xiao Zhengping as if she didn't have much to do, but the more Xiao Zhengping listened, the more surprised he became, he didn't expect this little rural girl to play hunger marketing in this era.
The two were talking hotly, when Dai Dum suddenly came back with a bundle of firewood on his back.
Xiao Zhengping hurriedly stepped forward to help Dai Dumb unload the firewood, and explained that he had come to the door to thank him.
But Dai was dumb when he saw Xiao Zhengping this time, but he was not as happy as last time, he just smiled casually and went into the stove room.
At this time, Dai Xuemei's work was basically finished, and she began to cook after Dai Mu washed her hands.
During the meal, Xiao Zhengping tried his best to flatter Dai Dumb for a few words, who knew that Dai Dumb would not accept the invitation, every time Xiao Zhengping finished speaking, he just smiled casually, neither answering nor asking.
Gradually, Xiao Zhengping felt that Dai was dumb and had opinions about himself.
Before leaving, Dai Xuemei sent Xiao Zhengping to the door, and Xiao Zhengping took the opportunity to ask: "Xuemei, is your father not waiting to see me, is it where I offended him?" ”
Who knew that Dai Xuemei's face turned red after hearing this, and she hung her head down, as if she didn't dare to look at Xiao Zhengping.
"It's nothing, he just loves to figure out." Dai Xuemei replied.
"Foolishness? What are you wondering? ”
"Some people say nonsense, say ~~ say ~~ say that you have a crush on me ~~ my dad he ~~ he ~~"
Xiao Zhengping didn't even hear Dai Xuemei's words clearly, he only felt a "buzzing" sound in his head, and it wasn't until he walked out that the path to Dai Mu's house eased.
He should have thought that He Yongfu knew the people in the brigade, and after learning that he had a person in his favor, whether he was seeking the truth or asking casually, He Yongfu would spread the word about it. There are only more than 50 households in the brigade, and if one person knows, it means that the entire brigade knows, and naturally, Dai Dumb also knows.
......
Two days later, in the courtyard of He Yongfu's house.
Things went even more awkward than Xiao Zhengping imagined, starting from the scales, until Boss Xia handed over the money to He Yongfu, and the two did not say a word between them.
Xiao Zhengping himself was very happy with each party, and after saying goodbye to He Yongfu, he rode his bicycle and went to catch up with Boss Xia, who was waiting for him at the intersection of the return team headquarters.
"Brother Pingzi," it could be seen that Boss Xia was very happy, "I will send you the car in two days, and our brothers will make a lot of money in the future." ”
"That is, following Boss Xia, still worried about not making money? In the future, the younger brother will inevitably trouble you. ”
"Well said! Say! After handing over the goods, when you have time, I will take you to our place, and we can also go to the coastal cities to see how those places do business. ”
"Really, that's great, don't hide it from Boss Xia, I haven't even been to our county a few times in my life."
"Okay, this car is fully loaded today, I won't go to your house, you wait for me at home in two days, and I'll send you the car."
Just as Xia Changyong was about to get into the car, Xiao Zhengping grabbed him, "Boss Xia, wait, in fact, the little brother has something to trouble you now." ”
Xia Changyong was stunned for a moment, turned around and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Hey, I'm really embarrassed to speak, it's like this~~"
Xiao Zhengping told Xia Changyong about buying livestock and collecting mushrooms from beginning to end, thinking that he would not agree, who knew that Xia Changyong just touched his chin and frowned, and then immediately said: "Okay, two thousand two hundred yuan, I will send it to you when I send the car." ”
After speaking, Xia Changyong stepped into the car in two big steps, without any stops or hesitation, just like promising Xiao Zhengping to bring him a pack of cigarettes.
Looking at the smoke and dust left by Xia Changyong's little four wheels all the way, Xiao Zhengping couldn't recover for a long time.
Two thousand yuan in this era, is worth ten years of wages for an ordinary worker, and he doesn't want to lend such a large sum of money to an irrelevant person, is Xia Changyong trusting himself too much? Or does the rich man's world not understand it itself?
When he realized that a big problem had been solved, Xiao Zhengping smiled comfortably.
When they got home, the eldest uncle and the second uncle were at home, Xiuye was talking to them, and Xiao Zhengping thought that the two elders were here for Ye'er to start school at the end of the month.
Who knew that as soon as he said hello, he saw the uncle turn his head with a grim face, and his appearance was even more terrifying than when he told him to sell the mountains and forests.
"Xiao Zhengping, come over to me!" The uncle roared angrily, startling Xiuye.
Xiao Zhengping hurriedly put the bicycle in order, and then ran into the yard briskly - he rarely heard the uncle call his full name, and whenever the uncle called his full name, he must have caused a big accident.
"Uncle, what's wrong?" Xiao Zhengping was sincerely frightened, and kept looking for answers on the faces of the second uncle and Xiuye.
Xiao Zhengping asked himself that he was very well-behaved during this time, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, and the only thing that could make the uncle angry might be that he couldn't pay for the livestock.
Could it be that Hu Shanchuan went to find his uncle? But the uncle won't be so atmospheric?
tremblingly walked to the uncle's side, Xiao Zhengping hung his hands in front of him, like a child who had made a mistake.
"What's wrong? Did you tell someone that you were going to marry Dai Xuemei? I don't admit it! How do you let the girl live! ”
