The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

Soon, the supermarket was set up. Lou Xinyang helped find some suppliers, and with the various agricultural and sideline products that Liu Minghui brought out, the supermarket was opened for business.

"Xiao'e, Minghui, good luck with the grand opening."

On the opening day, Lou Xinyang came with his wife to congratulate.

"Brother, you're welcome. Sister-in-law, let's sit inside."

Xiao'e welcomed them both warmly.

"Drip."

At this time, a car stopped at the door and Wang Guohua got out of the car.

"Mr. Liu, the new store is opening, I'm here to take advantage of the good fortune."

Wang Guohua came over with two younger brothers, shook Liu Minghui's hand and spoke enthusiastically.

"Mr. Wang, you're welcome. Please come in."

Liu Minghui did not show any surprise at Wang Guohua's arrival. After all, the area nearby was their territory.

The gangs in Hong Kong Island now occupy their own territories and collect protection fees. They are not standardized and are in a mess. After all, Luo Yu has not yet established standardized management over them.

So even if Liu Minghui was not inferior to these people, he would not go back to offend the face of the Wang family father and son of the triad. They came to congratulate him, that was to give him face, so Liu Minghui must treat them well.

There were a lot of people watching outside. After all, it was the opening of a supermarket, so of course there were gongs and drums, and a lion dance team was invited to liven up the event, which attracted a lot of people's attention.

Liu Minghui smiled faintly upon seeing this. When they found that buying things here was cheaper than outside, they would basically come to him to buy things. Even the food, whether it was rice, noodles, meat or vegetables, was all taken out by Liu Minghui from the space. Not only was it of good quality, but it was also cheap.

This is of course a big attraction for people who live frugally.

"Tsk, you are really ambitious. This is just a vegetable market. There is everything there."

Wang Guohua turned around and smacked his lips and said, he immediately became interested in it, even though he had originally looked down on it.

"It's just a minor incident, not worth mentioning."

Liu Minghui said modestly.

Liu Minghui’s store was of course built in the style of later supermarkets, but the items sold were not as simple as those sold in today’s stores.

"Minghui, the time is up, customers are starting to come into the store."

Suddenly, Lou Xiao'e ran over and said, looking anxious and hurried.

"There are so many waiters in the store. They are all trained. Just watch them with peace of mind."

Liu Minghui said indifferently.

"This is not nervous, I'd better go and help."

Lou Xiao'e blushed and said unhappily, then ran to the cashier to help.

........................

Time passed quickly and it was already the golden autumn season. Liu Minghui, who was in Liujia Village, was looking at the crops in the fields and estimated that it was almost time for the harvest.

"Uncle, judging from the situation, it's almost time for the autumn harvest."

Liu Minghui followed behind Liu Wu and spoke with certainty.

Liu Wu walked in front with his hands behind his back, looking at the situation in the fields, and was very pleased.

"Of course, we have put in a lot of effort this year and taken good care of the food, so we shouldn't have to go hungry next year."

Speaking of this, Liu Wu burst into tears. The past three or four years have been very difficult for him. Many white hairs appeared on his hair because of all the worrying.

After all, he is the biggest in the village. No matter who is short of food, they will come to him from time to time.

"I still have to thank you, Minghui. If you hadn't bought several batches of food for the village, we wouldn't have survived until now."

As Liu Wu spoke, tears welled up in his eyes. He felt really sorry for Liu Minghui. In Liu Wu's opinion, it must have been Liu Minghui who put in a lot of effort to get it into the village, otherwise how could it be so easy to get it.

"What's the big deal? I grew up in the village. I can't just stand by and watch someone die."

As they were talking, they came to Liu Minghui's ancestral home, and saw that behind the few dilapidated old houses, a new group of houses had been built, and the area was much larger.

"Brother, here it is."

Liu Minghui came forward and shouted to Boss Liu who was directing the erection of the beams.

"Pay attention, be careful, a little bit to this side, okay, that's it."

After giving the instructions, Boss Liu saw Liu Minghui calling him, so he quickly packed up and ran over.

"Third brother, why are you back?"

Liu Zhiqiang's skin was dark, obviously from being sunburned, and his forehead was covered in sweat. Although he looked tired, his face was full of smiles.

"Brother, our family is building a house, so how can I not come back to visit?"

Liu Minghui said with a smile, then pointed to a place not far away and asked, "Where are our parents? Why aren't they there?"

"And what about our courtyard wall? Has it been demolished?"

I saw that the wall that had previously surrounded the outside of the courtyard was no longer visible, and only the ruins were left.

"Hey, it's not that there isn't enough dirt pile, so just tear down the wall and use it first."

Hearing this, Liu Minghui also understood that houses nowadays are built with homemade earthen bricks, not the red bricks that were used later.

It seems that the wall of the house was demolished in order to complete the work before the autumn harvest.

"That's right."

Liu Minghui nodded to show that he understood.

"We are cooking at home. You can go find it yourself. I will go and help."

After Liu Zhiqiang finished speaking, he went back to help. Everyone here was from the same village, and everyone helped each other. There was no such thing as money, but the host still needed to provide lunch, so Liu Zhiqiang said that his mother would cook at home.

"Uncle, let's eat here today. Come in and sit with me."

Liu Minghui pulled Liu Wu into the house.

"Mom, I'm back."

When Liu's mother heard this, she hurried out.

"Oh, the third brother is back, and you, his uncle, are here too. Come in and sit down."

Liu's mother was very happy to see the two of them and quickly brought them into the house.

"Mom, stop busying yourself, sit down and take a rest."

Seeing that Liu's mother was still busying around, Liu Minghui went out to persuade her.

Unexpectedly, Liu's mother retorted, "How can this be possible? The villagers are waiting for lunch. They are here to help us build a house, so we have to prepare lunch too."

In the kitchen, the eldest sister-in-law was also helping. Seeing this, Liu Minghui could only say nothing and turned to talk to Liu Wu about Liu Aiguo.

"Aiguo is now a formal employee. I found him a good master who is honest and sincere. He is just busy at work, otherwise I would have asked him to come back."

Liu Wu was also very happy after hearing this. It was also a matter of pride that his family had a worker with a stable job.

"It's all thanks to you. Let Aiguo work hard. There's nothing serious going on at home. Just come back at the end of the year."

At noon, Liu Minghui met Liu's father, who was also smiling and entertaining the guests.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone, eat and drink well."

Father Liu was talking to everyone while holding a glass of wine.

After meeting Liu Minghui, he asked some questions about Liu Dazhuang and his wife, and then said nothing more.

Liu Minghui stayed in Liujia Village for half a day and left in the afternoon, riding his bicycle back to the city.
