Reborn in Changbai Mountain, I rely on my divine eyes to dig ginseng and hunt
Chapter 198 Wild Vegetables on Sale
Shuiqin said, "Okay, I'll remember that. If she or her mother-in-law comes, I won't accept any of them. This person is notoriously heartless and a troublemaker. I charge 20 cents per pound for vegetables. Sorting, packaging, and transportation are all costs. The money I earn is hard-earned money, working from dawn to dusk. It's not easy for a girl like Xia Lian to drive a tractor to the provincial capital to deliver goods."
The female worker next to her said, "She should just tear her mouth to pieces and make her talk nonsense."
"No need to tear it up. We won't cheat her out of money. You can sell it to whoever you want."
That afternoon, hundreds of people came to ask about precautions. The prickly ash buds need to be graded, the good ones have a good price, the bad ones have a lower price, and the ones with serious insect bites cannot be collected. There are also precautions for dandelions and wild chives. Many people in the city now come from rural families. They ate wild vegetables when they were young, but now they work in the city and have no place to dig them. Now it’s good, there are people who specialize in selling wild vegetables to the city.
The next morning, women and children in Lijiatun swarmed up the hillside as if they were going to work. Hundreds of firecrackers were set off at the foot of the mountain early in the morning. It is said that this is to worship the mountain god and ensure safety. In fact, this is also scientifically based. Strong beasts such as tigers and brown bears will only run away when they hear the loud noise of firecrackers.
At lunch time, there was a queue at the purchasing point. Shuiqin arranged for everyone to sort the vegetables in advance. Don't mix the vegetables together, separate them. After selling the vegetables, each person also received dozens of rubber bands, which were circles cut from old bicycle inner tubes, used to bundle the vegetables. Once they were sorted, they looked neat and easy to weigh, and looked good to sell.
After weighing, you will be given a small slip, and then there is the accountant next to you. The cash box is full of money, all in small change, including notes and even a basket of candy. For example, if you sell a dollar and two cents, if you don't want the two cents, you can give a candy.
Niu Er's wife set out into the mountains early this morning, and she and her husband carried back more than 100 kilograms of fresh prickly ash buds. As long as people in the mountains are willing to endure hardships, they can earn some income throughout the year.
Li Niu Er said, "Let's go and sell it for money."
Niu Er's wife shook her head and said, "I just had an argument with Liu Xialian's mother yesterday. We can't let her make money. Let's go to Zhangjiatun to sell it."
Niu Er nodded: "Okay, just walk a few more steps, don't bow your head."
The two of them walked for more than an hour and arrived at Zhangjiatun. There were so many people selling mountain products. They waited for more than half an hour. The person who came to pick up the vegetables was Liu Qiuyue, Liu Xialian's second sister.
Liu Qiuyue looked at Niu Er's wife and said, "I can't afford to buy your vegetables. Don't put them in line. It will delay other people's sales."
The villagers asked, "What's going on? Why don't you buy her vegetables?"
"My second sister donated 30,000 yuan to build a school for the villagers, but she was so mean. She picked some wild vegetables and said my second sister was making dirty money."
Niu Er's wife was stubborn and jumped up and down, cursing, "If you don't want to take it, then don't take it. Zhang the butcher died, and we still got to eat the hairy pig."
Qiao's mother opened the door for Qiao, but Zhang the butcher was there selling wild vegetables. He was not happy: "Who did you say died? Come over here and tell me clearly."
Niu Er saw that he couldn't afford to offend him, so he took his wife and left.
"Wife, don't get angry with them. Let's go to Mang Village to sell them. Such good wild vegetables, how can we sell them?"
The two of them carried the wild vegetables and walked for a while. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived at Mang Village. There were many people in Mang Village. The one who collected the wild vegetables was Li Erlu's wife.
Erlu's wife was patrolling back and forth. She glanced at Niu Er and his wife and said directly, "The big boss has said that we will not collect your wild vegetables. We cannot afford to collect them and cannot make money from you."
Niu Er's wife was completely panicked and immediately tried to make friends: "You are Er Lu's wife, I am Niu Er's wife, we are both women, why should women embarrass women? Just accept it, we have walked 20 or 30 miles."
"Don't try to get close to me. You mean we are both wives of animals? Go away, don't delay my work, or I will cut you in a moment."
This is a collection point, and the profit is 2.5 cents per kilogram, which is quite high.
Niu Er was dumbfounded, and Niu Er's wife was helpless. They still haven't realized their mistakes and still feel that it is their duty for others to donate.
Niu Er was not convinced: "Don't worry, wife. I will take a donkey cart to the county town to sell it tomorrow morning. I guarantee that I will sell it at a high price, no less than 30 cents a pound."
"Well, my man is still the best."
Early the next morning, everyone else went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables. Niu Er took the village horse-drawn carriage, spent fifty cents to get to the forest farm, and then spent another fifty cents to get to the county town.
The morning market in the county town was closed, so I just found a place to sell at the entrance of a residential area for the whole morning. The price was indeed good, 30 cents per pound, but unfortunately there were too many people selling, so I only made 9 yuan in total, and the remaining 70 kilograms were carried back. After paying for travel and food, I still had 6 yuan left.
Niu Er's wife said, "Let's sell it to someone else. There is a family in the village that buys it."
The two went over and asked, and they were only given 1.8 cents. They had no choice but to sell it, because if they didn't sell it, the wild vegetable would go bad.
Niu Eryi thought: "This won't work. I'll ask someone to secretly help sell it to Liu Xialian. Then I don't have to go to the county town and go through all the trouble."
Niu Er's wife sighed: "It's all my fault for talking nonsense. I thought selling wild vegetables was easy. Who would have thought it would be so difficult? This is the only way. I'll sell it to her secretly."
Liu Xia Lianniang also realized it later. After all, everyone picked about the same amount of wild vegetables. If there were suddenly more, they must be helping others sell them. But she didn't care and just taught her a lesson.
In the evening, Liu Xialian was harvesting goods in the greenhouse. There were two trucks full of old thorn buds, a total of 5,000 kilograms. One was driven by Cui Ge, and the other was driven by Daya and Liu Xialian.
Judging from the weight, this new tractor can easily pull 2,500 kilograms, but the prickly ash is a warm substance and will heat up if there are more of them. Fortunately, it is cold now, so it can still be used.
The two cars went straight to the county railway station. The traffic was quite slow these days and was far inferior to that of the railway.
The tractor drove for more than two hours and arrived directly at the county railway station. Boss Yang was waiting at the railway station and was very happy to see the tractor arrive.
"Xia Lian, you are really capable. If it were someone else, they wouldn't be able to find two tractors."
Boss Yang has many connections and he directly arranges for the iron furnace to be transported to Dalian, Yingkou and Shenyang for sale. There are relatively few wild vegetables there and they can be sold for a little over 40 cents per pound, so everyone makes their own money.
My mother was not idle at home either. There was no problem selling the prickly ash and wild leeks, but the dandelions were only worth two cents when transported to the market, but there was a high loss and they were easily spoiled.
"Hurry up and put up a sign. We won't accept any more dandelions. If we continue to accept them, they will be fed to wild boars and pheasants. The merchants want less. Xia Lian is shy and only wants to help the villagers. She doesn't understand the cruelty of the market."
Shuiqin also hung a sign at the purchasing point, and asked Li Hu and Xu Xiong to drive a horse-drawn carriage to Zhangjiatun and Mangcun to notify everyone overnight.
