With Mao Yuzhen's acquiescence, Han Chunlei no longer has to sneak away from home to fry jelly beans. Sometimes, Mao Yuzhen doesn't have to work, and she will help their sisters and brothers.

After a few more trips to change the jelly beans, Han Chunlei also slowly accumulated experience. Usually after frying the jelly beans that night, they will leave early the next morning, and the nearest villages will be able to rush back to Chaijiawu from Hongqi Village on the same day, and the distant villages will be able to rush home for lunch at noon the next day.

In the past month, he has carried his burden all over the villages around Changhe Commune and Puyan Commune. Han Chunlei continuously transported the rags exchanged for jelly beans to Cao Yougen's acquisition station in Hongqi Village, which also impressed Cao Yougen, he really thought that this half-sized son was just running a single gang to do a vote and finish the matter, but he didn't expect him to be able to hold on until now. Although this profession requires more money than farming and earning food, it is not something that ordinary people can do to carry the burden from village to village day after day.

Cao Yougen felt that Han Chunlei was a good young man, and he also wanted to win over Han Chunlei as a supplier, so he lost the tatters sent by Han Chunlei on the basis of the original price. even reminded Han Chunlei repeatedly in private to keep a low profile, be more restrained, be more hidden, and don't be reported by others and charged with speculation.

As for Han Chunlei himself, to be honest, if it weren't for the fact that his current strength and ability were insufficient, and he could only do this kind of errand-carrying business, he wouldn't have wanted to do this jelly bean for rags for a long time. He never knew what a cocoon was before, but now let alone a cocoon on his hands, even his shoulders were worn by the flat shoulders, and a thick layer of cocoons was formed.

But in the end, the deal went well, and it made money. Although the old lady Mao Yuzhen manages her money to the death, the living conditions of the Han family have indeed improved a lot. It used to be a thin meal, but now it is a thin meal in the morning and evening every day, and this meal at noon must be sweet potato mixed with dry rice, with less sweet potatoes and more rice.

Although I don't dare to say that there is meat in the meal, every three or two days, I can occasionally see a plate of spicy fried bacon or fatty meat soup on the table. The spicy fried bacon is very, very good, but in the eyes of the Han family sisters and brothers, it still can't compare to the fatty broth.

That fat broth poured on the dry rice, eh, my own mother and ancestor, Han Chunlei thinks this is the best food in the world.

Especially Han Chunfeng, he thinks that their old Han family is the entire Chaijiawu, no, the family of the entire Changhe Commune that took the lead in living a beautiful communist life.

......

As the days passed, the living standards of the old Han family slowly changed.

Even if the changes are not very conspicuous and extremely low-key, they still fall in the eyes of the villagers of Chaijiawu. The villagers of Chaijiawu have envy and jealousy, and of course, it has also triggered the pondering and deep thinking of some neighbors.

That night, Mao Yuzhen held an impromptu family meeting.

Because the old Han family has been quite smooth sailing for a month since they started the fried jelly beans for tattered business, but today they encountered the most severe test in the history of the old Han family.

That is, Han Chunlei went to Jiadi Village today to collect rags, and he actually returned with a halberd. This Jiadi Village is the birthplace of Han Chunlei's first jelly bean exchange for rags, and then almost all of them were exchanged for rags in other villages, waiting for the turn of Jiadi Village again, and it has been a month.

Han Chunlei thought that according to this rhythm, a month's time buffer was enough for the good people in the village to save up a bunch of broken things, and then he would go to the door to harvest again. It's called a virtuous cycle.

Who knew that this time I went to Jiadi Village again, and the reaction of the elderly, fathers, daughters and children to Jelly Beans didn't seem to be as enthusiastic as last time. In Jiadi Village, I shouted and visited the door, tossed a noon, and this time I brought out seven or eight catties of jelly beans, only exchanged for less than two catties, and only in exchange for half a basket of tatters, and it was the most cost-effective broken sandal toothpaste skin.

This bit of tatter is not worth a trip to Cao Yougen in Changhe Commune, so he took the jelly beans and half a basket of jelly beans that were not exchanged, and returned to Chaijiawu early.

In Mao Yuzhen's view, this is a very bad signal, which may make the Han family, whose life has just improved a little, decline again, and return to the previous days of eating and borrowing food, and living tightly.

I don't want to go back to those unbearable days!

This is not only Mao Yuzhen's voice, but also the voice of Han Chuntao and Han Chunfeng.

As for Han Chunlei, now he is thinking more about the countermeasures, the birth of a crisis, in addition to actively pursuing its antecedents and analyzing its consequences, but also actively dealing with the solutions.

"Mom, how much money have our family saved now?" asked Han Chunlei.

After returning from each transaction, Mao Yuzhen had to collect the money and keep it on her behalf. With money and food stamps at the bottom of the box, she feels like she has the whole world, down-to-earth!

Now hearing Han Chunlei ask this, she subconsciously covered her pants pocket and asked vigilantly, "What do you want to do?"

"Just ask, I've been running around these days, and I want to know how much money our family has saved. Han Chunlei said.

With the accumulation of experience later, the net profit of each trip is constantly improving, and Han Chunlei himself is the person who handles it, but he actually knows it in his heart.

Sure enough, Mao Yuzhen said: "Not counting those grain stamps, oil stamps, and cloth stamps, there are one hundred and eight yuan, four cents and seven cents saved." ”

More than 100 pieces...... On weekdays, there are three or five yuan, six or seven yuan, and I really don't care, but now I listen to Mao Yuzhen's report, and I actually save so much?

What is the concept of more than a hundred?

It is worth the third-level workers in the state-owned factories in the city who hold iron rice bowls, and they have almost four months' wages.

Seeing that Han Chunlei didn't speak, Mao Yuzhen said vigilantly, "I'll tell you, don't fight the idea of this money." Don't think that the old lady doesn't know that your sister and brother secretly cut off Hu behind my back, there are a few times when Chuntao goes to Zhangcun to run goods, you go to Jizhuang to run goods, and then you pay the money for running goods alone. Hmph!"

Han Chunlei: "......"

Han Chuntao lowered her head shyly, she has always been honest and responsible, this little bit of caution was still encouraged by Chunlei to be bold and courageous, and now she is seen through by the old lady and she is broken, so embarrassing.

Han Chunlei didn't feel embarrassed, and said with a pout: "The big heads are all there." My sister and I have to save some reserves, liquidity, don't we?"

Mao Yuzhen shook her head and said: "Anyway, don't think about the idea of beating me with this money, I'm still waiting to save some more money to build a new house! Build that kind of big house with red bricks, blue tiles and cement floors! Hehe, when the time comes, our family will be the first in the entire Chaijiawu, right?"

"Cover... Build a new house?"

Han Chunlei was a little surprised, but he opened his mouth and held back the words in his heart.

Although every dollar and every dime plays a vital role at this time, if you want to put this money on building a new house, I am afraid that this cost performance will be ...... But thinking about how hard it has been for my mother Mao Yuzhen over the years, especially pulling their sister and brother and three sons, although they are spicy and fierce throughout Chaijiawu, they still suffer a lot of grievances and white eyes in the final analysis.

At this time, my mother wants to build a new house, a new house with red bricks, green tiles and cement floors, she wants to let those who have bullied her, despised her, and looked down on her.

This kind of requirement, Han Chunlei is a son of man, can he say a word?

"Big brother, let's not talk about this for now. Let's talk about today. ”

Han Chuntao saw that Han Chunlei was stunned, and hurriedly lifted Han Chunlei's heel with her toes.

Han Chunlei snorted lightly and said to Han Chunfeng: "If you want to inquire about it, hurry up and tell our mother." ”

"Hmm, it took me a bag of fried jelly beans to get the news from Erzhuang and Mingwa. The two of them said that the old Wu family at the entrance of our village, Mingwa's fourth uncle's family, and the Yu accountant in the brigade all learned from our family to fry jelly beans for rags. ”

Han Chunfeng knocked jelly beans in his mouth, chewing them rattling and babbling.

The old Wu family, the fourth uncle of Mingwa, and the Yu accountant in Han Chunfeng's mouth, are all from Chaijiawu. Especially the old Wu family, which was the family that bought hens from Han Chuntao and Han Chunlei in private.

Hearing the old man say this, Mao Yuzhen's face instantly darkened, how could she not understand at this time? No wonder Chunlei would return home in his home village today, and come back early with most of the jelly beans?

Shameless!

What a shame!

Suddenly, she scolded, "These stinky and shameless people, follow our old Han family's ass to pick up cheap food." I said that Lao Wu Tou and Accountant Yu have been bowing their heads when they see me these days, and they are being thieves.

The more she scolded, the more angry she became, Mao Yuzhen stood up suddenly, rolled up her sleeves and was about to rush out of the door, "No, I have to find them to theorize and theoretical, it's shameless, I'll let the branch secretary comment on it, no, I'll go to the commune secretary, I'll go to the county revolutionary committee to complain !!"

"My mother, calm down!"

Han Chunlei hurriedly hugged his mother, kept giving Han Chuntao a look, and asked her to come over to help.

Good guy, really make trouble to the secretary of the commune, to the county revolutionary committee, so what's the deal?

These jelly beans are exchanged for rags and then sold for money, and they are sold to Cao Yougen, who is a speculator, can this kind of thing still be said with great fanfare? On weekdays, I can't wait to walk with my head down, where do we dare to beat gongs and drums to tell others: We are speculating?

It's really stiff, it's not just himself and the families in the village who are eating and hanging, but also Cao Yougen, who is touching the melon, and it is estimated that Zhang Xilu, the broker, will follow the food.

Han Chunlei hurriedly told Mao Yuzhen about the stakes, Mao Yuzhen was spicy, and the stakes were still understood, and when he heard Han Chunlei say this, he slowly calmed down.

However, this gas still can't be eliminated, especially the loss of income caused to the Han family, how can it be solved by eliminating the qi?

Mao Yuzhen snorted and panted, took the enamel jar that Han Chuntao brought her, and after drinking a few sips of cold white water, she asked angrily: "This matter is not over, it is not over, Chunlei!"

Thinking that she would never be able to earn so much money in the future, Mao Yuzhen's liver hurt......

"Fried jelly beans for rags, this is not our Han family's unique business, we do it, and others do it. Han Chunlei analyzed very rationally, "And the threshold of this industry is low, and it is easy to get started, they don't do it, and some people will follow suit in the future, and if we people in Chaijiawu don't do it, people from other villages will follow suit." It's a matter of time, I can't hold it back, and I can't stop it!"

Mao Yuzhen said angrily: "Is that it?"

"I can't just forget it!"

Han Chunlei thought about it, shook his head, and said, "Why do we have a nest and they come to live? ”

"Turn ...... Transformation, eldest brother, do you mean that the jelly beans are not dry anymore?" Han Chuntao was also taken aback.

Han Chunlei nodded, "I can't do it, once the stalemate continues, the competition will fall into viciousness, profits will be weakened, and in the end, no one will benefit." Therefore, we should make a proper and restrained fuss, and if we make a fuss, we will leave our hands and stretch out our hands......"

"Why do you leave your hand and reach out again?"

Mao Yuzhen looked puzzled, "I don't understand, who did you learn from these godly things?"

Han Chunlei was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, I have watched too many business war dramas, and you know it, old lady.

......

At this time, the three people in Han Chunfeng's mouth, Lao Wu at the entrance of the village, Mingwa's fourth uncle, and the big team accountant Yu, the three of them were wearing clothes and carrying flashlights in their hands, walking on the dark night road.

Late at night, the three of them jointly visited Han Zhankui, the party secretary of Chaijiawu Village.
