040 The big scene in Lijiagou
(Thanks to my friend 08a, baby bear rewards and encouragement)
The corn purchase battle at Liu Fugui's family started. This is really a rare scene in Lijiagou for so many years.
As a mountain village, it is really difficult to find a wide and flat place. If you imagine that every family has a large courtyard like the northern plains, it will be even more impossible.
This area can be found in the entire Lijiagou, just near the foot of the mountain, so it is also shared by the entire village.
Some people say, why don’t you look down? Isn’t it flat when you reach the real foot of the mountain? In fact, it’s really not possible. This is a yard, and you still have to consider drainage issues.
The foot of the mountain is indeed flatter and spacious, but whenever it rains, the water will go there. If you dry the food, can you do it?
Liu Fugui was well prepared for the purchase of corn this time. Not only did he get cash from the bank, but he also bought two electronic scales. One was kept for future sales, and the other was bigger to make corn and sell pigs in the future.
The iron rack is easier to get. Just go directly to the repair department in the town to weld one, which is not much money. If you buy a ready-made one, it will be more expensive.
There were many people coming to see the fun, adults and children. They watched the corn pull over and weighed it and piled it aside. After collecting the family, Liu Fugui ordered the tickets.
Moreover, Liu Fugui doesn’t say that he will round it up for you directly. Even if he has an extra dollar, he will give you a ten-yuan ticket.
Although it is a small method, it can "buy" some people's hearts. Now it doesn't matter if everyone requisitions the yard because they collect corn, but what if it's been a long time? Then there's no way to keep it in the future, and there's any gossip.
"Brother Fugui, when will we call the corn-fighting person?" Liu Ping'an, who had collected the family and sat down to drink tea, asked.
"It's the day after tomorrow. Don't think that the collection is slow, the bid is very fast. People just count money based on time and cannot be wasted. If it weren't for the limited place, I would have wanted to wait until the collection is over before calling." Liu Fugui said.
Liu Ping'an nodded, "That's true."
"Dad, I'll give you food." At this time, Lele ran over with a plant from the side every day.
Liu Fugui fed a bunch of them, "I will give Lele the rest. Grandma gave her stewed meat at home. You must eat more at noon."
"Well, Dad, can I go over and play with them?" Lele nodded vigorously and asked as he looked at the children running and playing in the yard.
"Lele, it's not possible now, but don't worry, it's probably about next year. Then you can run and dance like them, okay?" Liu Fugui said coaxingly.
The little guy was a little unhappy, but he still nodded well and then sat on Liu Fugui's lap and ate every day.
Liu Fugui also wanted his daughter to play with the children so that he could be happy. But Lele's body is really not good now. The children get crazy when they play, and they are very worried that they will cause Lele's illness to be recurred.
The little guy is really well-behaved. Liu Fugui said he couldn't play for the time being, so he stayed obediently and ate every day.
He brought a truck of corn over again. Liu Fugui didn't need to do this job for the time being, so Xiao Ping'an took action directly. He is now Liu Fugui's number one subordinate, but he is still the co-commander-in-chief.
"Dad, can you continue to send it here later?" Liu Fugui asked Liu Changshun who was following the car.
Liu Changshun nodded with a smile, "There are six mule carts on the road behind, and the dog is riding a rabbit and running fast. I'll go to the town to buy some vegetables later. I've been in a hurry these days, and I forgot that today is October 1st."
"Okay, I forgot it, I was watching a little while in the city before." Liu Fugui said with a wry smile.
After living at home for a long time, he found that he seemed to have become a little lazy. When he was in Yanbei City, he could remember it clearly whether it was a week or a holiday. However, when he returned home, these things were a little blurred.
Seeing Liu Ping'an and his men unloading the car, Liu Fugui took apart a cigarette and threw it over a box of them. The rest were also placed next to it, and whoever came and smoked it.
Smoking is harmful to health, everyone knows this. But this time I called for help, and not only cigarettes, but also drinks prepared next to me.
It’s their business if they smoke. If you don’t prepare it, it’s your business. People will say you are stingy. And although it’s autumn now, the autumn tiger bites people even more and has to give you some drinks to quench your thirst.
These are actually trivial matters and can’t cost much money, but if you do it well, everyone is happy and have the energy to work.
"Fugui, are you really planning to get bigger?" Zhang Zhu, a childhood playmate, sat down and asked, asking.
"Zhuzi, I still want to ask you for advice, but I am afraid that you will misunderstand and dare not come to you." Liu Fugui said.
"You boy, aren't you? I just paid for it, and there's nothing shameful about it." Zhang Zhu said with a smile.
"What happened at the beginning?" Liu Fugui asked.
"Hey, it's because you don't have much experience." Zhang Zhu sighed.
"I thought less at the beginning, and if there were vegetables in the greenhouse, wouldn't we make money? But these people who do business are too fucked and can't even pay the price."
"In the middle of the night, I got up to pick vegetables and pulled them to the wholesale market with the stars. A bunch of vegetable vendors gathered around. Basically, the price they set was to determine the price. If you want to sell it a cent, you can't sell it."
"Later, I took it to the county again, which was similar to the town. The wholesale market there was bigger, but it was even more difficult to get along. Later, I got angry and took it. I felt that even if I made a profit, I felt that it was not worth it."
Liu Fugui nodded, "I really have to pay attention to this matter. Zhuzi, after all, you have been in this industry, why are you more stable?"
"Eggplant, beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, and only these home-cooked dishes are certainly made. However, although beans make money, they are too hard. They have to be picked at least once every two days. Even if they are older, they cannot be sold at a price." Zhang Zhu thought for a while and said.
"Brother Zhuzi, are there still people bullying the market these days?" Xiao Ping'an next to him asked curiously.
Zhang Zhu was happy, "This is not called bullying and dominating the market, it is a market trend. We are a small family with too few dishes, so we won't give you a price."
"This is normal. I will find a way out when the time comes." Liu Fugui said with a smile.
