Good luck every time

Li Er comforted the driver with a few words, and the two carriages arrived at the county government office.

Li Ruyi took the salt coupon and went to find someone to get the salt. Li Ershi wanted to talk to her but didn't have the chance.

Besides, the driver had been feeling very depressed these days, so after he finished talking about Zhao Laonian's matter, he started talking about how someone had taken advantage of him in the past few days.

They didn't stop talking until they reached the county government office.

Li Er was a bit shrewd, and he had met many people along with Li Ru, so he had some manners, and he listened very carefully to what the driver said.

This gave the driver an outlet for all the frustration he had been feeling these days.

Although Li Er was anxious, he also knew that now was not a good time to leave.

Li Shiwu helped Li Ruyi move salt, and loaded a thousand kilograms of salt onto the truck.

Two cars slowly came out of the county government office.

Li Ershi and Li Shiwu followed the cart, while Li Ruyi and the driver also led the donkey and mule.

The two cars drove around the city for fifteen minutes before arriving at the inn.

We have reached the edge of the city and the area is a bit empty. The street ahead is also wide enough to accommodate horse-drawn carriages.

Li Ruyi came over with the donkey cart and saw someone directing things in the carriage inn.

She followed the man into the yard.

The person who invited her in asked her.

"Are you going to live together?"

Li Ruyi shook her head.

"My eldest brother rented a house here, and I came here to deliver something."

The man looked at them and said nothing, then agreed.

"Then move forward and don't delay others from coming."

Li Ruyi looked in the direction he pointed. It was a mess over there, but she didn't mind and greeted Li Shiwu.

"Brother Fifteen, help me lead the donkey while I go and call for help."

Li Shiwu agreed and led the donkey cart inside. Li Ruyi quickly jumped into the corridor and ran to the boss's door and knocked on it.

As soon as she knocked on the door, it opened.

Half of the people in the room greeted Li Ruyi when they saw her coming.

"Hey! Li Er, you're here! Come over and rest for a while."

Li Ruyi waved her hand.

"No need to rest. I've delivered the salt. You have to come over and hold on. It was just brought back from the county government office, so it must be underweight."

When they heard that the salt had been delivered, all the idle men in the room stood up.

"Let's go!"

"Then go check it out first. Lao Liu, you guys wait here! Big brother hasn't come back yet, and someone needs to be in the house."

After they sold their dried meat, they still had a lot of money in the house, so they needed people.

Li Ruyi also understood this and hurriedly spoke.

"We don't need these people. Four or five people will be enough!"

Two people weigh it, and two people carry it into the house. It’s enough!

Everyone listened to her, eight people came out, and the remaining ten people waited in the house.

Li Ruyi brought people out, and the group of people was so large that those who were ready to take the two carts of salt in the yard immediately withdrew their hands.

They weighed the goods first, and Li Ruyi also included his own 100 kilograms of salt.

It was the same this time, with the sack lacking twenty pounds.

That sack must have weighed several kilograms, and they wanted 1,050 kilograms of salt, so Li Ruyi could only take back more than 20 kilograms of the 100 kilograms of salt he brought.

This was also within her expectations.

When they heard that the county government did not have enough salt, these people did not react. It did not matter to them whether the county government had enough salt or not. As long as Li Ruyi gave them enough salt, it was fine.

Li Ruyi first asked them to tie up the sacks they brought with them and weigh them.

Then they started weighing salt and pouring it in.

Li Shiwu and Li Er were squatting beside the donkey cart guarding the salt on the cart.

Li Ruyi led his men to fill the handlebar cart with salt first.

After filling, they will be weighed. Everyone from the village can count, but they are a little slow.

Li Ruyi wrote down the weight of each bag of salt and confirmed it with others.

After the last 1,050 kilograms of salt were weighed, Tian Laoer saw the remaining twenty-odd kilograms and asked Li Ruyi to weigh them as well.

Since Li Ruyi didn't need to deliver the goods, the remaining salt was rounded up to a total of 1,100 wen.

It was sold for fifty cents.

Although she lost more than twenty cents, it also gave Li Ruyi a lot more time. With this time, she could make a lot of money as a peddler.

Twenty or so cents is still a good deal.

There was some bad salt base left, but Li Ruyi did not give it to them. Instead, he put it in a small bag and gave it to the driver.

The quality of these salts is very poor and cannot be eaten without boiling them. Although there are about two pounds, there are a lot of sand and stones in them, and it is estimated that even one pound cannot be boiled out.

The driver didn't expect that he could get any extra benefits and was a little at a loss.

Li Ruyi had to wait here for the boss to come back to settle the bill, so she took the money and let the driver leave.

The driver felt a little embarrassed, and even more ashamed of his previous anger.

But Li Ruyi doesn’t know this yet!

She was just trying to be kind to others, thinking that since she had made some money now, there was no need to exploit others.

It costs a hundred coins for others to go to Sanjia Village, but this man only charges eighty coins.

It was obvious that the two sides had a tacit understanding in cooperation and to some extent they were family members, but the more familiar they were with each other, the less benefit they got. She found it strange no matter how she thought about it.

After sending the driver away, Li Er and Li Shiwu waited outside, and Li Ruyi followed them into the house to wait.

Li Er looked at the rickshaw driver's back and wanted to talk to Li Ruyi about Zhao Laonian.

He also wanted to ask Li Ruyi how he planned to deal with this person.

Several days had passed and he hadn't seen anything. His curiosity was almost eating him up.

However, Li Er never doubted that Li Ruyi would let Zhao Laonian go.

Counting all the people in the three villages together, the person who knows Li Ruyi best, besides Granny Ding and Han Shian, is probably Li Er!

Li Ruyi waited for a while before the boss, Hetian Twelve, came back.

The two men were visibly stunned when they saw Li Ruyi.

"How come you're so fast? We wanted to go forward to greet you."

When Tian Laoer saw the boss coming back, he went over and stopped him, and whispered to him about buying salt. He heard that the last twenty pounds of salt cost 1,100 coins. The boss nodded without any reaction.

Li Ruyi waited for the big boss and Tian Laoer to finish muttering before he spoke.

"I thought since they're weighing it here anyway, I might as well just bring the salt here!"

The boss patted Li Ruyi on the shoulder.

"Sure! That's very generous! I was thinking we could go with you, and you can use the money left over from the taxi hire to treat us to a meal!"

Li Ruyi laughed.

"No way! I'm ready to take you shopping, you have to use the money you save to treat me to a meal!"

Li Ruyi hired twenty strong men by himself, and twenty strong men hired their three half-grown children. No matter how you look at it, the latter is more reliable!

Besides, what can eighty cents buy for twenty-something people to eat?

I don’t even dare to order two meat buns.

The boss was just joking, but Li Ruyi's words really made him feel relieved.

"Okay! Then you have to help us save more."

Li Ruyi patted her flat little chest.

"Don't worry! Leave it to me! It's not time for dinner yet, let's go now! I came here by car, and there are too many things, just put them in my car."

After hearing this, the boss teased her on purpose.

"Oh! Brother Li is so kind that he is not in a hurry to get the salt money. He wants to help us first."

Li Ruyi was stunned for a moment, tilted his head, and spoke quickly.

"Then let's settle the bill before we set off!"

Seeing her clever look, everyone in the room burst into laughter.
