After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it
Chapter 259 Liao Baojia Selling Vegetables
In previous years, when heavy snow blocked the roads, everyone stayed at home, warmed themselves by a weak fire, ate the minimum amount of food, and maintained basic survival needs. They would stay at home if possible.
There really is no way the whole family can afford a complete set of cotton clothes, so we can only endure this.
This year, Yushu Village is different. There are high-yield sweet potatoes, corn and other grains. The cellar is full, and it makes people feel safe just looking at them. When they have free time, they roast a few pieces and eat them. Their stomachs are always full, so they have the energy to work.
Everyone wears thick cotton coats and trousers when going out, and the children can go out to play. The whole village is filled with laughter, and the old people have their hands in their pockets, with tears in their eyes. This year is the most comfortable winter.
In the past, there were few people in the village, and the dogs didn't even bark, but huddled in their kennels, shivering.
Now the dogs in the village are all well-fed and waiting to be used to pull sleds. Every family wants to raise a few more dogs. Anyway, there is enough food and they don't need a lot of food.
When people have enough food and warm clothes, they will be in the mood to grow vegetables and bean sprouts. Every family can have more fresh vegetables on the dinner table and eat more than usual.
But ordinary people have too many places to spend money, and they still hope to exchange such fresh vegetables for money. In the future, their children will need money for education and getting married.
If I have food and money, and then build a new house, I will live my life without regrets.
After Shen Qingshan heard Shen Nanzhi's words, he returned to the village and told everyone the good news. The villagers were all very excited and asked, "I wonder how much it can be sold for?"
"Well, it's better to sell it for a few cents than to eat it, right?"
"That's right, especially the bean sprouts. One pound of beans can make ten pounds. Even if you give them two cents per pound, they can still sell for twenty cents, which is quite a lot."
"The green vegetables, shallots, garlic sprouts, and cilantro all grow fast. My family can harvest them all. There must be hundreds of kilograms."
Shen Qingshan pressed his hands to stop them from arguing. "No matter how much the vegetables sell for, it's all extra income. We'll be happy if it's more, and we won't complain if it's less. Nanzhi will definitely try her best to get benefits for everyone. Go home and take good care of your fields. We'll come to harvest the vegetables tomorrow, and you'll know then."
"The village chief is right. Nan Zhi is really the lucky star of our village. Fortunately, she is back, otherwise we would be like the people in Shimo Village, starving and freezing to the point of being unable to leave the house."
"That's right, let the Jiang family regret it."
"Don't mention that unlucky family. Why mention them on such a nice day?"
"That's right, they are not worthy of having anything to do with our Nanzhi."
……
In previous years, if the village was blocked by heavy snow, it would be impossible to travel. But this year is different. With dog sleds, we managed to create a road between the village and the county town, and the trip could be completed in just half an hour.
Liao Baojia has suspended the Malatang business. Everyone has suffered a disaster and certainly can't afford to eat. It's a good opportunity for him to do the business of collecting and selling vegetables. The financial opportunities provided by Sister Nanzhi will definitely be good.
He thought about what Sister Nan Zhi had said and felt a little worried. Shen Yanli asked, "Brother Liao, why do you look so miserable?"
"Sister Nanzhi said that one pound of vegetables can be sold for one hundred coins. Tell me, can it be sold? These are not vegetables, they are gold, right?"
Su Yanli said, "Why are you worrying about this? There's no need. Sister Nanzhi said it can be sold, so it will definitely work. Just do as she says."
"Okay, let's give it a try. If it works, we'll be rich."
Sister Nanzhi said that she would give him 10% profit per catty, which is ten cents. If he sold hundreds of catties a day, he could make one or two taels of silver. This money was too easy to make. He could earn so much just by running errands. Sister Nanzhi was really his sister.
This time they sent out three sleds and used nine dogs to pull the carts. They ran very fast. They were all good dogs.
When they arrived at the village, Shen Qingshan received them. Liao Baojia followed Shen Nanzhi's instructions and said to everyone, "Take the vegetables away first. We will settle the payment for today's vegetables tomorrow. After all, this is the first time, and we don't know if we can sell them.
In the future, when this route goes smoothly, the vegetable payment will be settled on the spot and there will be no delay."
The villagers said one after another: "It's nothing, just take it and sell it for money, it's all grown by ourselves, it's not worth much."
Some villagers were concerned about the price and asked, "How much can this pound be sold for?"
"Let's set the initial price at 100 wen per jin. If you can accept it, then we'll keep it at this price. If not, we'll have to lower it a bit, but it won't be too low. It's not easy for everyone to grow vegetables, and the firewood they burn every day is a cost, so it has to be taken into account."
"Hey, so many?"
"Not much left. It's hard to see a touch of green in winter, let alone juicy fresh vegetables. I won't say much. Hurry up and weigh them. I have to deliver them to each household."
"Okay, everyone, lend a hand and load the truck together."
After weighing the vegetables, he wrote notes to each family. They could come and collect the money tomorrow with the notes. It was the first time he harvested more vegetables than Liao Baojia had expected, more than 500 kilograms, half of which were bean sprouts and bean sprouts, which would probably be sold at a lower price.
Originally I thought the dogs wouldn't be able to pull so many dishes, but it turned out that nothing was wrong and they still ran very fast. Liao Baojia decided to give the dogs chicken legs in the evening.
Liao Baojia has always maintained good relations with the wealthy families in the county. From ice bowls to milk tea and spicy hot pot, and now there are fresh vegetables, which surprises the wealthy families. But when they hear the price, they frown, saying it is too expensive.
"Usually it's only a few cents per pound. We grow it on our own farm and don't charge for it. But now they're asking for so much. Even robbing someone is like this."
The housekeeper frowned, not daring to report to his master, how much does a pound of grain cost?
Liao Baojia said: "You can't say that. Look at the weather. It's winter and it's rare to see anything green, let alone juicy green vegetables.
If you think it's too expensive, you can have bean sprouts, which are 50 cents a pound, and mung bean sprouts, both at 20 cents a pound. Stir-fry the mung bean sprouts with a little vinegar. They are white, tender and crispy, and the smell is appetizing.
Stir-fry pork belly with bean sprouts and sprinkle some garlic sprouts on it, and the masters can eat an extra bowl of rice.
Please go and tell them. If they don't want it, we have to go to the next one. To be honest, Mr. Zhu, who runs the restaurant, said that they want a lot. I'm afraid they've bought it all, so shouldn't we go to the old customer first?"
The housekeeper thought so and said, "Then I'll ask."
Liao Baojia stuffed a red envelope, which was heavy with fifty cents. The housekeeper went in satisfied. After running around in such a cold weather, he should have some hard-earned money for drinking and having tea, right?
As expected by Liao Baojia, most of them would leave some behind, about one or two pounds of green vegetables, just for the head of the family to taste. However, a lot of bean sprouts were sold, but the bean sprouts were okay, as they were all sold out. After all, it was just a county town, not a prosperous capital, and there were no wealthy families who spent money like water. The reason why so many were sold was that Liao Baojia had good relationships with people.
