Seed dealers in ancient times

Zheng Jiang stopped to run errands to deliver the goods, and went to deliver the goods in Xinfulou himself after collecting the final payment on the main street.

The shopkeeper Xin Fu Lou was the first to place an order from him, and the sales were very good on the first day, and he doubled the amount on the second day.

After delivering the goods and getting the money back, he pushed the cart and continued to sell along the street.

"Little Master!"

Zheng Jiang stopped looking up and saw a well-dressed middle-aged man rushing towards him with a big belly.

"What would the master want?"

The middle-aged man answered irrelevantly: "Did you order Xinfulou's potatoes from you?"

Zheng Jiang didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "Exactly, what's the matter, master?"

"I'm the shopkeeper of the restaurant in front. I thought it would be okay to get some goods from you?"

The business took the initiative to come to the door: "Naturally, how much does the shopkeeper want?"

The middle-aged man ordered fifty copies in one go, and Zheng Jiang stopped to record the deposit as usual.

After tidying up here, before I walked a few steps, someone came to the door again. Down the main street, there were five food shops that ordered potatoes.

On the first day, Xin Fu Lou took potatoes and sold them very well, probably because they had tasted the sweetness, while other restaurants saw the wind, so they rushed to take advantage of the wind to order.

This saves him from publicity, he delivered the goods to other streets today, and he will know the effect when he sells them in the food store for a day, and there should be some repeat customers, so he can only process potatoes at home.

In this way, the profit can be doubled, and he does not have to go out to sell all day, he has changed from a small vendor to a supplier, but problems have also followed. Now the daily order quantity is already very large. People worked overtime to rush to deliver the goods today. If it is like this every day, I am afraid it will be unbearable. After all, there are still restaurants open during the day, and there are still not enough people.

He wondered if he could transfer Huang Jingyi back, but Qiushou had to let him pretend to be a rich man. If he stayed at home, he would inevitably bump into Cai Lin. It would be troublesome, and the house couldn't accommodate so many people for the time being. people.

Annoyed, it was already noon after Chu Xian left Brother Hui's yard, so he went straight to the restaurant, and the two ran into each other at the intersection of Wangmin Street.

Chu Xian stepped forward, and the two walked side by side: "How is business today?"

Zheng Jiang stopped his thoughts and said: "It's not bad, how did you come here, can you rest well?"

"I didn't get up until I had enough sleep."

Chu Xian leaned over to help Zheng Jiang stop the cart, and said with a smile, "I have something to ask Brother Zheng for help."

Zheng Jiang stopped to look at the people beside him, his brows were slightly tightened: "Why are you so polite all of a sudden, it seems so natural."

Chu Xian chuckled: "It's not a big deal, I wonder if Brother Zheng knows where to recruit workers, and if he can help introduce you."

"Who is looking for an errand?" Zheng Jiangting thought it was a big deal, and said amusedly, "Who has such a big face and wants our Mr. Chu to intercede."

"You have learned to make fun of me." Chu Xian said, "It's brother Hui. He quit his job and returned home. It's hard for my little brother to find a job. Now life at home is not easy, so I'll ask you."

There are indeed not many job postings posted on the bulletin board, and they mainly rely on referrals. There are also such referrals in the city, but they will charge some fees from them, and the introductions may not be suitable for errands. Who would spend this unjustly money if they had nowhere to go.

Zheng Jiang stops to walk around the streets on weekdays, but he can know some places that are recruiting without going to the bulletin board. , but it may be more difficult and tiring.

After thinking about it, he said: "Recently, I have an idea to recruit a worker for our family. Do you think it is feasible to recruit brother Hui? Now there are many restaurants that order potatoes, and the family is too busy."

"If you find it inconvenient, I can also recommend a job to brother Hui. You can make up your mind on this matter."

"It's up to you to make decisions about the big and small things at home, and now I have to decide how to do it."

Zheng Jiang said honestly: "After all, I am a little brother. I have to avoid suspicion. If I want to work in our house, at least I have to get the approval of my master."

There were smiles in Chu Xian's eyebrows, the words were obviously flirtatious, but they came out of Zheng Jiangting's mouth in a very serious manner. He secretly said in his heart that he didn't see that Zheng Jiangting knew how to avoid suspicion, and went to his yard every now and then. Jumping in, as time goes by, I dare to drill into the bedroom.

"Since you must listen to me, then recruit brother Hui, the left and right are close."

"It's all up to you. You pay him the salary according to the market price. You know what to do. You just tell him."

After receiving Zheng Jiang's words, Chu Xian brought the news to brother Hui in the afternoon.

There was an echo of the matter so quickly, Brother Hui couldn't believe it but couldn't hide his surprise: "Is this true? Brother Xian, don't you just pay me to work in the Zheng family just for favors."

"You think too much. The family is really short of staff right now."

After Chu Xian settled the deal with Brother Hui, Brother Hui went to Zheng's house to help the next day. What he did was to help out at the restaurant in the morning, deal with potatoes in the afternoon, and supervise the errands to deliver the potatoes to various places in the morning. to the restaurant.

Brother Hui used to be nimble and diligent, but when he thought of the hard-won opportunity, he was even more diligent in doing things. After having such an extra manpower, he really relaxed a lot.

In early May, Cai Lin invited Zheng Jiangting to visit the village and worked as a street vendor for more than two months, earning a lot of money.

After making money in the past two months, he started to buy bricks and tiles to transport back to the village one after another, and recruited a few villagers from the village to help lay the foundation for building the house, and now the house has been completed.

Zheng Jiang stopped to buy two strings of big firecrackers and some gifts for the new house, and then he took Brother Xian to the gate of the city and took a car to the village.

"What do you keep watching me do today?"

Chu Xian walked beside Zheng Jiangting, watching people stare at him from time to time, and finally couldn't help complaining after a few times.

It's getting hotter in May, and the clothes are much cooler. Today I'm visiting relatives and friends for dinner. Although it's in the countryside, Chu Xian still dresses up seriously out of courtesy.

After taking off his winter clothes, Zheng Jiangting felt that Chu Xian's girdle was a little tight, and the tight waist was really eye-catching.

"You don't have to dress up so grandly to go to the village."

Chu Xian glanced at him: "Where do you see the grandeur, you haven't seen me wearing new clothes for a long time, right?"

"I'll go back and buy a few more for you."

"If you don't waste this money, I'm still growing up, and I won't be able to wear new clothes for long. I wear old ones on weekdays. It would be nice to have two decent ones to wear out." Chu Xian said: "Brother Cai The house has been repaired, and we will soon be able to have a new house after reducing expenses.”

Zheng Jiangting secretly sighed that his little brother is really good at planning and living, and he will be able to manage the family well in the future.

"You can buy two fewer clothes now, but for now, let's go to the village in a horse-drawn carriage." The temperature in early summer is already not low: "When I go there in an ox cart under the sun, my head will get dizzy from the sun."

Chu Xian didn't refute this. Bullock carts cost two cents each, and horse-drawn carriages cost four cents each. After all, they are also businessmen, so they don't want to deduct a few cents.

When the two arrived at Yangmu Village, Cai Lin was waiting at the entrance of the village.

"Isn't it a banquet today? Why do you, the master, come here?"

Cai Lin asked the two to get into the ox cart: "The food for the banquet at home is prepared by a helper. Brother Lin will take care of it, so it doesn't matter."

Chu Xian did not intervene in the conversation between the two men, but only looked at the lush and excellent crops in the village. In the city, she heard that this year's season is good and the crops may have a bumper harvest. When she came to the village to see, it was indeed so.

Zheng Jiang stopped to notice his gaze, and also looked at the crops: "The rice and corn are growing well, and I haven't seen them being ruined by insects yet."

"The folks are very precious this year's crops. They chased mountain mice and caught locusts in the field every day when they had nothing to do. Of course the crops are growing well. Besides, if you look at the fields everywhere, they are full of crops, and the land that was left unused in previous years is full. planted."

Speaking of Cai Lin's face was full of brilliance, since the incident of borrowing seeds, the villagers have relied on him, selling potatoes and earning money to repair houses, everyone is more convinced that as long as he asks something, the village will not disagree.

The crops are thriving, not only the villagers and Cai Lin are happy, but Zheng Jiangting is happier than anyone else, the better the harvest, the more money he makes, and he can marry Chu Xian back home in a glorious manner.

The peppers have also bloomed and drawn out long strips. At that time, they will be able to develop their careers again, which is completely hopeful.

"arrive."

The three of them looked at the crops along the way, and soon arrived at Cai's house.

The old thatched courtyard has been built into a house with black tiles and stone foundations. The courtyard has doubled in size, not to mention that it is spacious and flat. All the ground is covered with bluestone slabs. In the future, it will be very useful for drying rice and corn. There is also a special cowshed next to the house to keep chickens and ducks.

According to this configuration, it is the best house in the village.

Cai Lin is very satisfied with his house: "Originally, I fed a dozen chickens and ducks, but today they are all used for cooking."

He pulled Zheng Jiang to stop and look around.

"That's right, it cost a lot of money to build the house, right?"

Cai Lin said: "It's nothing, it's nothing. Now the villagers in the village rely on me. Many people come to help when building houses. The cost of hiring people to do things in the village is not as expensive as in the city, and there are a lot of building materials. You can get them on the mountain by yourself. Here I am It all looks like 15 taels scattered."

"It's really affordable. If it weren't for the inconvenience of building a house in the city, I would like to buy materials to repair the house myself."

It costs five or sixty taels to buy a decent house in the city, and the money can be used to build several houses in the village, but the city does not have the conditions to build houses by itself, just like the villages generally cannot buy ready-made houses.

Although the village is affordable, he has not thought about it. After all, he has to do business in the city, and Chu Xian is not suitable for raising in the village.

The money he has saved now is almost enough for the house he saw before, and now looking at Cai Lin's new house, he can't wait to go back to the city to contact the owner of the house, and he paid the deposit earlier, and things are settled properly.

He hadn't told Chu Xian the good news yet, and after the process was confirmed there, he handed over the key directly to him and gave him a big surprise.
