69. Small changes
The rent of the livestock shed, under the influence of Hu Shanchuan, who "calculated the economic account", was finally set at 300 yuan a year, but the deposit was 1,000 yuan, and the lease contract had to be signed for five years at a time, which means that Xiao Zhengping wanted to rent the livestock shed, and he had to pay 2,500 yuan at a time.
Xiao Zhengping was able to come up with this money, but he felt that the entire branch committee was under Hu Shanchuan's control, and all the prices were proposed by Hu Shanchuan.
This made Xiao Zhengping very uncomfortable, so he didn't agree on the spot.
Of course, the most uncomfortable of them is not Xiao Zhengping, but his uncle Xiao Kunguo.
Xiao Kunguo is a stubborn person, both conservative and principled, from the perspective of the branch committee, of course, the more money Xiao Zhengping gives, the better, but Xiao Zhengping is his nephew, and he is about to get married, he can't help but think about his nephew.
And whenever he stood up to speak for Xiao Zhengping, those branch committees immediately grabbed the handle of their same surname Xiao and accused Xiao Kunguo of protecting his calves, saying that he wanted to help Pingzi "dig a corner of socialism".
After a meeting, Xiao Kunguo was tired and angry, he didn't bother to care about such a big matter, Pingzi didn't discuss it with himself, and after the meeting ended, he rushed home angrily with his hands behind his back.
The matter of the livestock shed has not yet been decided, and Xia Changyong has something to do again.
On this day, Xiao Zhengping and Chen Yan had just returned home with a cart of fungi, and they saw Xia Changyong's Jiefang brand truck parked next to the fork in the road to their home.
Since he and He Yongfu determined the way of cooperation, Xia Changyong has not been on the mountain, and if there is something, he will wait until the delivery time to bring it up.
This time, Xia Changyong actually drove such a big guy, Xiao Zhengping expected that something might have happened.
Xiao Zhengping told Chen Yan to send the mushrooms to the second uncle's house, and then got out of the car and walked towards his yard.
Xia Changyong didn't look like he was in a hurry, when Xiao Zhengping entered the hospital, the driver Xiao Li was sitting on a chair and napping, while Xia Changyong was playing with two cows in the livestock shed.
"Boss Xia, why do you have time to come to me today?"
Xiao Zhengping's voice woke Xiao Li up and almost fell off the chair.
"I can't sit down if it's okay? Not to mention, the air on this hill is fresher than in the city. ”
Xiao Zhengping opened the door of the house, moved three chairs out, and poured a cup of tea for each of them.
"I'm thinking it's still early before our delivery time, Boss Xia came to me with an empty car, I'm afraid it's not for the fresh air!"
"Okay, Pingzi, I won't talk nonsense with you, I'm here today, I'm going to take the car back."
Xiao Zhengping was shocked, "Take the car back?" Boss Xia, what are you kidding, I still have several tons of goods outside that haven't been pulled back! ”
Xia Changyong waved his hand and signaled Xiao Zhengping to calm down, "Don't worry, in fact, I'm as inexplicable as you, my old man suddenly asked me to take the car back, and warned me not to overdo it." On the way here today, I have been thinking that in addition to the supply and marketing cooperatives that do business with me, they are people from other places, and if they have any movements, they will definitely inform me, so this matter should be out of you. ”
Xia Changyong's words are very clear, someone sued about the car, and now his old man wants to take the car back, and the problem now is that he doesn't know who is suing.
"Boss Xia, you have to explain this, why is the matter on my side, even if the people around me want to sue, they don't know where to sue!"
"Pingzi, I can't help it, no matter what side of the matter is, the car must be taken back. You have made a lot of money these days, why don't you just take a break, as soon as there is a loosening on my side, I will send you the car immediately. ”
"You said it lightly, we are both light, what should people do in the mountains waiting for delivery? This time, we cheated people, what's the use of you sending the car back again, can they still deliver it to you? ”
"So what do you say? If the car is not taken back, I am afraid that the two of us will be in prison, and then this business will be completely yellow! Tell me yourself, do you want to go to jail, or do you want to take a break? ”
Xiao Zhengping is really anxious, doing business is about integrity, especially these poor people in the mountains, who value a person's reputation more than anything else. Now it's hard to build up the supply chain, and when the time comes, it's going to really pit people, and it's hard to build it again.
But Xia Changyong's words can't be ignored, and a fool can tell the difference between imprisonment and making money.
After walking around the yard twice with his head down, Xiao Zhengping made up his mind, "Your old man just asked you to drive the car back, and didn't say that he wouldn't let you receive the goods, right?" ”
Xia Changyong shook his head, "No, what's the matter, you still want to deliver the goods?" ”
"That's okay, you drive the car back, and we'll deliver the goods as usual, but you have to reduce the amount of each delivery to me, at least by half."
"That's no problem, I'm sure I'll have to use a small four-wheeler to receive the goods when the car drives back, the question is what are you doing here?"
Xiao Zhengping turned his head to the livestock shed, looked at the two fat and strong cattle and said: "Raising soldiers for a thousand days, using soldiers for a while, it is time for my forage money in the past two years to come in handy." ”
......
That's the way it is, there is a little inconspicuous change in everything, and eventually the quantitative change leads to a qualitative change, and it suddenly erupts and catches you off guard.
From Dai Xuemei no longer selling tofu because of an unhappy marriage, then Zhang Gouzi left, then the branch committee was blocked, and then Xia Changyong took back the car, things accumulated little by little, and finally disrupted Xiao Zhengping's overall plan.
As a last resort, Xiao Zhengping could only pull out the second uncle who originally roasted the mushrooms, and asked Zou Huaili to set up a rack car, and the three of them drove the three cars out to collect the mushrooms.
And the work of roasting mushrooms can only be done by the uncle, because the uncle still has to manage the flue-cured tobacco, and one person can't take care of the two stoves, so Xiao Zhengping's manpower can't be arranged at once.
On this day, Xiao Zhengping pulled a cart of dry goods to the yard of He Yongfu's house and told He Yongfu about his problems.
He Yongfu smiled after hearing this: "You, are you young, you can't see this?" Someone is trying to harm you! ”
"Can I not know that someone hurt me? But where do I have time now to care who is trying to harm me, I even collect a fungus and rotate on the shaft! ”
"So you're young, you don't have enough manpower now, but you can barely deliver the goods. But if you don't find this man, the devil knows when he will put you in the same league again! ”
Xiao Zhengping suddenly had a feeling of being stunned when he heard this, indeed, if he didn't figure this matter out thoroughly, he would have been kept in the dark, and he might be able to get away with it this time, but what about next time? Next time!
Thinking so, Xiao Zhengping said goodbye to He Yongfu, went straight to the post and telecommunications bureau, and sent a telegram to Xia Changyong.
