Back to the 80s, I was a military wife and was pampered by a tough guy with a pure heart.

The flour millers knew that there were still many potatoes in their village that could not be sold, and they also needed a large amount of potatoes to make potato starch.

If the villagers agree to sell at this price, they can directly arrange for large trucks to haul potatoes to their village.

After other farmers in the village who also grew a large number of potatoes found out, they all approached Ye Ying and asked her to help them dispose of the potatoes they could not sell.

Ye Ying is of course very happy to help if there is a "price difference".

But after these people heard that the price sold to flour mills was only 1 cents per kilogram, one or two of them felt that they were at a disadvantage and quit.

In the end, only the old man's potatoes were taken away by the flour mill, and Ye Ying also made a small profit.

Although you won’t make a lot of money, it’s definitely easier than selling popsicles under the scorching sun.

She calculated that the potatoes produced by the uncle's five acres of land were about 7500-8000 kilograms. At a price of 2 cents per kilogram, the potatoes could be sold for about 1500 yuan.

Then she received a commission of 0.05 per kilogram, which meant that she could earn at least a price difference of about 8000 yuan for these nearly 400 kilograms of potatoes.

She was very satisfied with the income of 400 yuan from this trip.

As for the uncle, he could get a minimum of about 1200 yuan, which was actually very good based on the average monthly salary at that time, but the difficulty was that it was the entire income of a family of more than ten people.

It’s not that much of a loss, at most it’s just a little less profit.

Although the old man did not make much money from the acres of potatoes he planted on an equal basis, he did not let his hard work go to waste, nor did he become a big injustice.

Because his worries over the past few months have been resolved, the uncle always praises Ye Ying when he meets everyone.

Her reputation in Dayan Village also changed slightly due to this.

Ye Ying thought that the matter would just go away, but she didn't expect that someone would find her again a few days later and agreed to give it to her for [-] cents.

The person who came over was Li Ergou's cousin Li Hui. Their family also grew a lot of potatoes, even more than the old man.

When Ye Ying saw that the visitor was a relative of Li Ergou's family, she originally didn't want to talk to him.

But within a minute she changed her mind.

Although she doesn't have to deal with Li Ergou, she won't stay here for too long, so why bother with money?

Thinking of this, Ye Ying happily agreed and asked the flour mill to collect potatoes on the third day.

Li Hui's family has a large population. When he heard that potatoes would be harvested in two days, he mobilized more than a dozen distant relatives to help, and it took only a day and a half to harvest all the potatoes in the field.

Even though her family planted six acres of potatoes, when weighed, the yield was not as much as the uncle's five acres of land!

It seems that the old man put more thought into this.

Six acres of land can produce just over 6000 kilograms of potatoes.

Therefore, the price difference Ye Ying earns from this will be less than what the old man earns here.

But it doesn’t matter, it’s still a good income.

Before going to bed at night, Ye Ying counted carefully again and again. She didn't dare to go back to her hometown by herself. It took only a few days to earn enough for many people for a year!

After putting away the 700 yuan she earned, Ye Ying was so excited that she couldn't sleep.

The money came too easily, as if it was picked up.

But this was not over yet. On the next day, several villagers came to their door one after another, and they all said that they would accept this price for their potatoes, as long as they could all be cleared away.

They also said that they had sold off all the potatoes this season and would never plant them again.

Ye Ying couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this. The next day, she rode a 40-bar and ran more than [-] kilometers to the flour mill. She found the person in charge and asked him to arrange a truck to collect it.

After these few households sold out, others followed suit. In less than ten days, all the potatoes produced in Dayan Village were eaten by that flour mill.

The villagers were certainly not fools, and they would definitely know that Ye Ying "takes a commission" from it, but they all tacitly agreed not to mention anything.

They have also changed from the initial mentality of "I would rather rot in the land than sell at a low price" to "a little loss is a little bit, and a small loss is a profit."

In less than half a month, there were about 500 households in Dayan Village, and the potato output of 200 acres of land was about 250 tons, all of which were harvested by the flour mill.

Not only that, the person in charge of the flour mill also said that if the price is always sold to them, they will continue to collect, but the prerequisite is that the minimum required output of their factory can be guaranteed.

Therefore, Ye Ying told the village chief Wang Lijun about the matter and asked him to consult the people in the village.

If they are willing, he can come forward to sign a relevant cooperation agreement with the flour mill.

However, for the price of [-] kilograms, the villagers all expressed that they felt they had suffered a loss and were basically unwilling to continue growing potatoes.

After Ye Ying found out, she thought about it for two days and decided not to want the "price difference" of five cents.

Anyway, she has made a lot of money this time, and she will return to the county after the autumn harvest, so she cannot always live with the five cent difference.

It would be better to raise the price and try to promote cooperation between Dayan Village and the flour mill.

This opportunity for cooperation is not just once or twice. Once signed, it will be long-term, which is also a good thing for the villagers.

If no one in this village grows potatoes, and then they all start planting other crops, the end result will definitely be exactly the same.

If the supply exceeds demand, it will naturally not be sold at a higher price.

Therefore, after Ye Ying thought deeply, she took the initiative to find Wang Lijun.

She told him that the flour mill had increased the price to 2 cents per kilogram, and asked him to promote it to the villagers again to see how many households agreed.

Wang Lijun takes this matter very seriously. He is the head of a village, so naturally he is more concerned about the development of the village.

So this time he went door to door in person.

In the end, 20 households agreed, including the old man who said he would never grow potatoes again, and the Li Hui family.

As soon as Ye Ying looked at the list, she knew that they were a large-scale "real fragrance" site.

2 cents per kilogram, although it is cheaper than the price charged by the previous boss, but it is more stable.

They probably agreed after weighing the pros and cons.

However, 20 households should have 80-90 acres of land, and the output should be able to meet the needs of flour mills.

After it was finalized, Wang Lijun held a simple signing ceremony in the village on behalf of Dayan Village and the flour mill, officially starting the cooperation.

This can be regarded as the first long-term cooperation that Dayan Village has established with the outside world in a real sense.
