Chapter 157 Difficult than imagined

Just as Liu Tingxiong patted the flying dust on his hands and was about to leave, Iron Hen hurried over. Seeing the empty stall on the ground, he hurriedly pulled Liu Tingxiong over and asked, "Where's your lotus root?"

Liu Tingxiong rolled his eyes at Iron Hen: "It's sold."

"Sold?" Iron Hen hurriedly turned to look at the exit of the vegetable market, and there was no ghost in his heart. Could it be that someone really bought it at the meeting just now?
Liu Tingxiong wanted to laugh when he saw the iron hen's expression, and he wanted to tease her, so he sighed deliberately: "I knew that lotus roots are so cheap, and I would have ordered more rice. Nearly 700 catties of lotus roots only cost 250 yuan. There is not enough fertilizer money!"

Sold 250 catties of lotus root for 700 yuan?The iron hen was dying of regret. If he had known that Liu Tingxiong's lowest price was 250 yuan, why wouldn't he offer 250 yuan?
In fact, the reason why Iron Hen turned back was that just now, a canteen ordered 1000 catties of lotus root from her for use tomorrow, and the price was not bad, three yuan and three catties, she suddenly thought of Liu Tingxiong's lotus root, and hurried over , who knew alas!The money in hand let it fly.

The iron hen really had the urge to slap himself, and as soon as he let go, he lost more than 1000 yuan, and he was really a two hundred and five.

etc! 250?Two hundred and five, the iron hen muttered, and instantly understood, and looked angrily at Liu Tingxiong's booth, there were no people there.

Hehehe!At this time, Liu Tingxiong was already on his way home.

It was almost five o'clock when Liu Tingxiong got home, and he kept thinking about the problem of selling lotus roots in his mind.

First: The most important problem is to dig lotus root.

The characteristic of lotus root in the mud is that the bigger the lotus root grows, the more it will dig into the hard mud. It can almost be said to stick to the hard mud in the paddy field, so you have to dig it by hand. It is really difficult, let alone digging slowly. If one is accidentally scratched by glass or tiles in the field, it will be a heart-rending pain. Naturally, it is impossible to dig lotus roots with an injured hand. Wouldn’t this mean that the golden age of selling lotus roots has been missed?

Second: It is the mud and yellow-brown rust-like stains on it. The mud can be washed off with a little water or two, but the rust-like stains on it can’t be done without rubbing hard. And if you don't wipe it clean, your face will be pockmarked, and you won't be able to sell it if you look at the difference.

And washing lotus root is a thankless job. If you wash it in broad daylight, it will gradually turn black after a while, and you can’t sell it until the next morning, so you can only wash it in the middle of the night. Everyone is in dreamland.

Third: It is the issue of selling. Although Liu Tingxiong is not short of money at all now, the mental power reward for selling is very important to him.

Judging from the situation of lotus root in the vegetable market today, the sales are stagnant. The first is that it is a little expensive, and the second is that the long-term operation of the vegetable seller has monopolized all the regular customers who eat lotus root. If you want to buy it well, you must open up word of mouth among the crowd. just work.

The fourth is the problem of transportation. Although I haven’t seen how my parents came here, but so many lotus roots must not be brought here, so I have to buy a tricycle or a small truck, but there is a premise for all of these. That is a driver's license!

He didn't want to be taken back to drink tea by the traffic police uncle for driving without a license.

well!These problems are all difficult, so let's lie down and relieve the pressure, maybe a solution will come.

As soon as I entered the gate, I was surprised that my parents should come back to rest and eat at this time, why is there no one?
At this time, Huang Er yelled "Aww" once or twice, and dragged Liu Tingxiong to look at the lotus root field.

Liu Tingxiong saw that his parents, Bai Xiao, Li Xin'er, and Hei Ji were busy picking and arranging lotus root in the field, busy in full swing.

Didn't the parents say they don't care about themselves anymore? Then they are.
Liu Tingxiong suddenly felt wet eyes, choked up, and ran over to help.

When we arrived on the field ridge, my parents had already put the lotus root in the dustpan, a load full of it, dripping muddy muddy water from time to time.

Dagen had seen Liu Tingxiong coming over a long time ago, without raising his head, he kept a straight face: "The lotus roots are sold out so quickly?"

Liu Tingxiong was startled, and felt palpitations when he saw his father's face, so he had to lie: "Well! I didn't sell a single section at first, but then I came to a cafeteria, and I sold them all at a cheap price of three yuan a catty."

"Three yuan a catty?" Dagen opened his mouth slightly, as if he didn't believe Liu Tingxiong's words, he sighed slowly and said, "I've been at the stall for a long time, and the highest price offered by the vegetable vendor is [-] yuan, and only the big ones are chosen. Did you ask for all three yuan a catty?"

Liu Tingxiong was ashamed. If he told him the actual situation, his father would probably give him a slap or two. One yuan and five catties was considered good, and the penniless iron hen would be bought for 100 yuan.

"Dad! My luck has always been better than yours! If you don't believe me, come with me tomorrow. The grocery store guy told me that I'll have more for these three days."

Dagen said "Oh", and I still believe what Xindao Gouxiong said, who has the luck to win the lottery if he dreams.

Turning around and not entangled with Liu Tingxiong, he shortened the rope of the shoulder pole, bent down to pick up the muddy lotus root, and left.

Liu Tingxiong felt strange at this time. Seeing the bamboo pole on his father's shoulders, the moment he got up, he made a "clicking" sound of breaking, but fortunately, the toughness of bamboo was better than he imagined. broken.

There are still two butts on the ridge, and Li Xiner and his mother's thin body will definitely not be able to match, so only Bai Xiao and himself will be left.

Who knew that Liu Tingxiong was stunned at the moment when he raised his shoulders. He knew that the weight on his shoulders was definitely not less than 400 catties. No wonder the bamboo pole made a "clicking" sound.

I feel powerless after just one or two steps. If I don't use mental power to cheat, my heart will be crushed to the ground.

Turning to look at the still Bai Xiao: "Bai Xiao, take the one beside you to the Luotan pier, it's time to wash your feet and eat."

Bai Xiao smiled bitterly, it's not that he hasn't tried it, he can't afford it at all, and he is not as good as Li Xiner when it comes to picking things.

Liu Tingxiong looked at Bai Xiao with a wry smile and said nothing strangely, and asked, "Why, it's too dirty! Or is picking lotus roots harmful to your special forces status?"

Bai Xiao had no choice but to bend down to pick.

Seeing this, Liu Tingxiong left, hehe said straight in his heart: It seems that the ancients are right, if you don't put pressure on you, you will have no motivation, Bai Xiao is such a person.

Who knew Liu Tingxiong hadn't reached the embankment of Luotan when he heard a scream of "ah" from behind, followed by the sound of "crash la la" things falling into the water.

Liu Tingxiong was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized that something was wrong, turned around with difficulty, and saw that guy Bai Xiao threw himself into the paddy field and turned into a drowned chicken, the lotus root was scattered in the field, and he was busy getting up quickly, but at this moment he That fair and handsome face has turned into a Bao Gong, darker than him.

Hehehe. Eat, eat, eat. Hee hee hee.
The lotus root field suddenly burst into laughter.
