Mrs. Zhang from the village came to the door of Lu Chengcheng's house and asked loudly: "Chengcheng, do you want to buy a sheep? I will sell it to you at a low price."

"Sheep?" Lu Chengcheng thought for a moment. Mrs. Zhang had several sheep at home, the kind of black goats. "Don't you raise sheep for banquets? Why are you thinking of selling them?"

Mrs. Zhang said, "One is enough for the banquet. We have four at home, so we can sell some."

Lu Chengcheng thought that he was going to host a banquet, so he could buy a lamb and roast it whole: "I'll go take a look."

Old Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, "Come with me to see the sheep at home. They are all tied up at home."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Okay."

As soon as he walked out of the door, Lou Shaotang came towards him. He was a little surprised to see Lu Chengcheng: "Chengcheng, where are you going?"

Lu Chengcheng said, "I'm going to look at sheep and buy one. Do you want to come with me?"

Lou Shaotang originally came to find Lu Chengcheng: "Let's go together."

So the two became three people and went to Mrs. Zhang's house together.

As I walked into the yard, I could hear the bleating of sheep, and there was a very strong smell of sheep in the air.

Lou Shaotang asked: "Cheng Cheng, why did you buy the sheep?"

Lu Chengcheng said, "I want to make a roasted whole lamb. I'm going to host a banquet for the management in a few days. I'll add a roasted whole lamb at that time. Can you and the old man come too?"

Lou Shaotang naturally wouldn't refuse: "Then I'll help you roast the lamb?"

Lu Chengcheng was surprised: "You can?"

Lou Shaotang curled his lips slightly, and it was rare to see him smile: "I once stayed in Mongolia for a period of time. I can roast it, and it tastes pretty good."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Okay, I'm still worried about who to find to bake it. If you can do it, then I don't have to find anyone."

Lou Shaotang nodded: "Leave it to me."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Then go pick one."

"Okay." Lou Shaotang walked to the sheepfold, took a look, and picked the fattest one, "This one."

"Okay." Lu Chengcheng said to Mrs. Zhang, "Weigh it."

"I'll go call the old man to weigh it." Old Mrs. Zhang called Old Mr. Zhang over, and then they weighed the sheep together.

Lu Chengcheng gave the money, then took the sheep back home and tied it in the chicken coop behind the house.

The chickens in the chicken coop have been moved to the chicken farm, so this place is left empty and used as a temporary shelter for the sheep.

Lu Chengcheng asked: "When is the best time to deal with the sheep?"

Lou Shaotang said: "If you want to eat it on the same day, kill it in the middle of the night, because it needs to be marinated and roasted, which takes some time."

Lu Chengcheng thought for a moment and said, "I'll treat you on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. You can choose a time to kill them. I'll cooperate with you."

Lou Shaotang said: "Okay, I understand."

……

Lu Chengcheng went to get some cherry tomatoes to feed the sheep and placed a basin of gourd water next to it.

The sheep simply abandoned the cherry tomatoes and turned to drink the gourd water.

Gourd water has an inexplicable attraction to animals. Sheep simply cannot resist it. In fact, not to mention sheep, even humans find it hard to resist.

The sheep kept drinking the gourd water and drank a lot. It felt like its stomach was full.

Lu Chengcheng whispered, "Use this to improve the quality of your meat. It will definitely taste better. Okay, you can slowly eat the cherry tomatoes. I'm leaving first."

She reached out and touched the sheep's head: "Okay, I'll go back first."

Yang didn't understand what Lu Chengcheng said. After she left, he lowered his head and went back to eating his tomatoes.

Grandma asked, "Chengcheng, do you want to entertain guests?"

Lu Chengcheng took grandma's hand and said, "Yes, I treated you last year, too. I'll trouble you to help me when the time comes."

Grandma said, "Okay, no problem. I'll help you when the time comes. As a grandma, it's my duty to help you."

Lu Chengcheng hugged her grandma and said, "Grandma is the best."

The two went back home together and discussed the idea of ​​treating a guest to a dinner. It was only a few days away on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, so it was time to start preparing.

After the discussion, grandma drove to the county town to buy things.

Lu Chengcheng watched her car go by and said, "Grandma is still strong despite her old age. She drives faster than young people."

……

It's the end of the year, and it's time to settle the final payment.

Lu Chengcheng came in person to collect the final payment. After all, this requires a lot of technical skills and it is difficult for ordinary people to complete.

Everything went smoothly at the beginning. After all, Lu Chengcheng's products were easy to sell and there was almost no pressure. All of them were sold out, and there was money, so the closing payment was easy.

In the afternoon, Lu Chengcheng met a person who was not very cooperative. This person was called He Hong. He opened a supermarket and took a lot of goods from Lu Chengcheng and sold them in the supermarket.

He Hong was worried that the items would not sell well, so she used the accounting method and would settle the bill with Lu Chengcheng after the items were sold.

It is human nature, and Lu Chengcheng also agreed to this way of cooperation, but now the other party is obviously unwilling to cooperate.

He Hong felt that Lu Chengcheng was a woman who was easy to bully and manipulate, so she didn't want to pay her: "The goods haven't been sold out yet, I don't have the money to pay you, I'll pay you next year."

Lu Chengcheng is not an ordinary woman: "I said that we will settle the bill today. You transfer the money you should pay to my account and send me a screenshot, otherwise we will no longer cooperate."

He Hong said, "Lu Chengcheng, I need to buy more than 10,000 goods from you every month. If you don't cooperate with me, won't you suffer a great loss?"

Lu Chengcheng said: "I don't know if I will suffer a loss, but you will definitely suffer a loss."

He Hong was quite arrogant: "How can I suffer a loss? At worst, I won't sell your goods anymore."

Lu Chengcheng said calmly, "Sure, I don't need you as a customer. Besides, if you don't pay me the final payment today, you will have to pay three times the penalty."

He Hong raised her voice in surprise: "What penalty?"

Lu Chengcheng said, "It's clearly stated in the contract. If you don't pay the bill on time, you will have to pay three times the penalty and we will no longer cooperate."

He Hong's first reaction was to ask angrily, "Are you setting a trap for me?"

Lu Chengcheng said, "Who set you up? Everyone's contract is the same. It's strange that I have collected so much balance, but you are the only one I can't collect. Are you trying to be a deadbeat?"

He Honghe didn't want to be known as a deadbeat: "What nonsense are you talking about? I just don't have any money. I can't pay the bill."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Then I can only use legal means?"

He Hong felt that Lu Chengcheng was really difficult to deal with: "Is it necessary to make such a fuss?"

Lu Chengcheng said: "You make it very difficult for me to manage you, so I can only do this."

He Hong still didn't dare to confront him, so she could only compromise: "Okay, okay, I'll transfer the money to you right away."

Lu Chengcheng hung up the phone. It would have been better if they had cooperated earlier. It would have been a waste of all his saliva.

After a while, Lu Chengcheng received the transfer from He Hong and then began to collect the balance from the next family.

The entire process of collecting the final payment was sometimes smooth and sometimes not, but with Lu Chengcheng's combination of soft and hard tactics, it was always successfully collected.
