Getting rich in chronology

From the moment the first piece of clothing was sold at the train station, things got out of hand.

Chen Yu bought this kind of blue and white pinstriped blouse in bulk at a garment factory, priced at 18 yuan for five pieces.

The same style is available in Xingcheng Department Store, with a retail price of 20 yuan and [-] cents.

The Shen family has never done business, and they can sell at most two home-grown eggs, each of which is priced according to the size of the market, and they are familiar with it.

I didn't understand the clothes, so I had to ask Chen Yu.

However, Chen Yu didn't know the price of the local clothing market, but it must be a little higher than the retail price of Xingcheng Department Store, after all, it had to be transported.

Specifically how much to sell, Chen Yu's suggestion is to let them inquire first to see how it can be sold at a good price. Anyway, they only have about [-] pieces of clothes, so they won't be overstocked, it's the difference between earning more and earning less.

He feels that these differences have little effect. For the first time, not losing money is progress.

But the entire Shen family can treat the sale of these 32 pieces of clothing as a major event. After Chen Yu returned home, the old man specially called a meeting to discuss how to sell the clothes at that time.

In the car, they discussed the pricing issue several times. Finally, they boldly proposed a short-sleeved sea soul shirt like this one for 23 yuan, and they would not sell it if it was less than 23 yuan.

Of course, it would be better if you could sell more.

After getting out of the car, the first person to ask about the clothes appeared. Shen Fengshou, who was stopped for questioning, puffed up his chest and said proudly: "I bought this from the provincial capital next door. We don't have this!"

He doesn't know if there are any in the city, but they definitely don't have them in the county.

The person who asked the question was also a young guy. He was not dressed as rough as ordinary boys. It could be seen that he had been carefully groomed, and his hair was even sprayed with hairspray.

"I haven't seen it in the city." The young guy looked at the Shen family's model team enviously. He was not surprised by the trousers. He had a pair of them at home, but he really didn't have any clothes.

Second Aunt Shen watched from behind, an idea came to her mind, she pulled Aunt Shen and gave her a wink.

Before Aunt Shen could react, she took two steps forward and pulled Shen Fengshou's arm impatiently: "Let's go, we still have to drive."

Shen Fengshou carried a woven bag with a zipper on his shoulder. This was specially found by Chen Yu to pack their luggage. There were several of them. The one Shen Fengshou carried on his shoulder was stuffed with 32 pieces that were going to be sold. clothing.

When Second Aunt Shen was pulling him, she "accidentally" caught the zipper of the woven bag, and opened the bag wide open, revealing the clothes inside.

Shen Fengshou was taken aback, if something was lost here, his master could turn his head off!

Regardless of what others said, Shen Fengshou first put down the bag, checked it carefully, and made sure nothing was lost before he was about to zip it up.

"Hey, brother, why do you have so many clothes here?" The young man who had just stopped Shen Fengshou for questioning saw the blue and white stripes protruding from the inside of the luggage bag, and it was clearly the same clothes as the person in front of him .

Just as Shen Fengshou was about to answer, he was stepped on by his aunt, and his second aunt stepped on his foot, without changing his face, he said: "We brought this for relatives and friends, it's rare to go to other provinces, the train ticket is only a few dollars , everyone, don’t ask us to bring some fashionable clothes.”

The rest of the Shen family don't know why, isn't this clothes sold?Why did it become a gift for relatives again?

On the contrary, Mr. Shen and the others were thoughtful, suppressing the quick-talking juniors, and letting Second Aunt Shen control the field.

"Auntie, how much did you pay for each of these clothes?" The young man came to ask Second Aunt Shen sweetly.

Second Aunt Shen looked him up and down, with a defensive face: "What's wrong?"

"Just asking." The young man said with a chuckle, "I want to buy one too, let me inquire about the price."

"Oh." Second Aunt Shen nodded and said, "It's not expensive, more than 20 yuan a piece."

The young man's eyes lit up, the price is okay, his brother bought a pair of jeans before, and they were bought from other provinces, and it cost 30 yuan, but it ruined him.

"Twenty?" He couldn't help asking.

Second Aunt Shen rolled her eyes, she didn't answer in a hurry, and said hesitantly, "Do you really want to buy it?"

"What? Auntie, how many do you have?" The young man said very well.

Second Aunt Shen touched the bag that Shen Fengshou was carrying: "There are a few more..."

"Auntie, sell me one, so you don't suffer any disadvantages. I'll add money to how much you paid for it!"

The Shen family: "..." This is what the cat said, please.

"How much do you add!" Second Aunt Shen didn't hold back this time, showing a bit of a money-losing smile.

"How much did you pay for it?" Although the young man liked the clothes, he didn't want to be taken advantage of.

After some calculations in his mind, 28 yuan was the highest price, and he would not buy it if it exceeded this price.

Second Aunt Shen hesitated for a moment between lying and telling the truth, gritted her teeth, and quoted the real price: "Renxingcheng Department Store sells all kinds of clothes, one piece is 20 yuan and [-] cents, if you sincerely want it, Give me some money, and I'll sell it to you."

Because they were so lively, there was already a circle around to watch the fun, and immediately a young man shouted: "I'll add two yuan to you, and sell it to me!"

22 yuan, which is still [-] cents less than the reserve price they negotiated, so it can't be sold.

Second Aunt Shen immediately replied: "If you don't sell it, I might as well take it home and give it to relatives and friends."

The guy who asked the price first was going to add two yuan, but seeing that Second Aunt Shen was not happy, she was afraid of making people anxious, so she hurriedly said: "Auntie, don't listen to him, you just need a train ticket How much is it, add two yuan to sell it to him, and still lose more than half of the ticket price, it’s not worth it.”

"Yes, that's not true." Second Aunt Shen agreed, "You're still a young man who can talk, and if you quote the real price, Auntie will sell it to you."

She thought very clearly. She didn't know how much to sell, so she asked the buyer to quote. If it was lower, she would not sell it. If it was higher, it would be better, and there would be standards later.

Young man: "..."

This is very embarrassing. If the report is low, I am afraid that the aunt will be angry and will not sell him, and if the report is high, he will feel distressed.

Adding two yuan was rejected immediately, adding three yuan?Three yuan is a lot, and the worker's wages are a day.

He suddenly remembered that when he mentioned the ticket price just now, the aunt looked distressed. It would cost more than eight yuan to take a bus from their city to the next provincial capital.

Thinking of this, the young man suddenly realized that the fare was more than eight yuan, and he paid half of it, so it should be fine, right?

If he buys it by himself, he will have to add more than 30 yuan for the ticket to the original price, which is almost [-] yuan, which is not worth it.

Buying it in the hands of this aunt, only half of the ticket price is used, and the rest is given by the aunt, which is equivalent to earning more than four yuan!

After the self-logic was perfected, the young man said excitedly: "Auntie, I sincerely buy it. The price is 25. You sell me one!"

Second Aunt Shen opened her mouth wide, and the rest of the Shen family were also dumbfounded.

This sells for 25?They didn't raise the price, so they raised it to 25?The price of this dress will increase by itself!

"Okay, okay?" The young man finished quoting the price with confidence, but the seller didn't respond, and he was a little confused. Is this not satisfied?

"Okay, okay!" Second Aunt Shen patted him on the shoulder: "Auntie sees you as a straightforward person, so I won't bargain with you, so you take 25."

She patted Shen Fengshou: "What are you doing in a daze, take out the clothes for this comrade to pick out, just right, there are still a lot of clothes now, and we have all kinds of clothes."

Hearing what she said, the young man also had a feeling of taking advantage of it.

Shen Fengshou put down the bag in a daze, and watched helplessly as his second aunt's eloquent tongue coaxed the boy into looking like he had picked up a big deal, and happily picked out the number that suits him in the bag.

He didn't react until the money was received.

With this first, immediately there is a second and a third.

Someone tried to negotiate the price, but Second Aunt Shen refused without hesitation. Since it can be sold for 25 yuan, why sell it for 24 yuan?quit!

There are so many people at the train station, and their 32 pieces of clothes are really not enough to look at. After the first piece was sold, it was less than 10 minutes before the rest were gone.

Second Aunt Shen still remembered acting for a while, and yelled a few times: "If you don't sell it, don't sell it, the rest is for others!"

It’s okay if you don’t shout, but when you shout, people who were hesitant don’t hesitate, and they are all sold out.

Those women's floral tops cost a few dollars more than the men's ones, and they were all sold out.

The people who didn't buy it in the back were very disappointed. They didn't even spare the ones that Shen Fengshou and the others had already worn, and asked them if they would sell them.

25 dollars!

I was almost shaken, but thinking about it, it was a gift from the cat, with a heart, and they sold the clothes for money, which didn't seem very good.

Also, they sold it, but the others didn't. When we go back together, the brothers wear new clothes and are envied by the big guys. Can they show off that I sold the clothes with money?

No, it cannot be sold.

A group of people squeezed out from the crowd at the train station. Shen Anmin held the money in his pocket and never relaxed while touching the money. The Shen family members were all around him, protecting him tightly.

In fact, there are many small vendors in the train station, not only small vendors, but also small gangsters who collect protection fees.

If Second Aunt Shen was selling clothes here alone, someone would have come to "extract oil".

But who told her to bring so many people with her? With the physique of the Shen brothers, when the gangsters come, it's not sure who will snatch who.

So they took the money and left the train station safely.

I found a secluded place and counted the money, a total of 780 four yuan.

Mr. Shen watched them count the money, counted it right several times, bit the cigarette pot and said, "Go, go to the post office now and send the money to the cat."

Holding the money in his hands, Shen Anmin said in a deep voice, "No cat, he... he wants me to use the money to build a new house for your second elder."

It was him, a worthless son, who made a child as young as Mao'er think about building a house for his family.

Mr. Shen raised his head in surprise: "Did the cat really tell you that?"

Mrs. Shen has already called out: "Why is my cat so filial, I can't have it, how can I let him build a house for us with a little doll..."

Shen Anmin nodded vigorously: "It really means the cat, he said..."

Shen Anmin tried hard to recall his son's words at that time: "He said that you two have worked hard for half your life, and you should enjoy the blessings. Let me use the money to build a better house and install the electric lights. Also, he also said that if you don't want it, He asked the school for leave and came back to build a house."

"You can't ask for leave!" Grandma Shen said urgently.

Her grandson is No. 1. What are you doing when you come back from leave? It's too late to study.

"Then this money..." Shen Anmin wondered.

Mr. Shen knocked on his son a cigarette pot: "When you promised to help the cat hide it from me and your mother, why didn't you think it would be difficult now?"

Shen Anmin lowered his head and didn't speak. It was rare for his son to ask him to do something, so he had to do it.

"Take it." Mr. Shen made a final decision: "If the cat wants to build a house, then build it. The boss is not here. In front of your brothers and sisters, let me make it clear to you that the cat paid for this house. , whether he wants it or not, the house belongs to him, and you are not allowed to have any opinions."

"That's for sure, we all know it in our hearts."

"Father, who do you look down on? How can we take advantage of the younger generation?"

Old Man Shen glared at Shen Anxing: "You take off your clothes before you say this."

Shen Anxing smiled hippie: "This is my nephew's honor to me, don't take it off!"

After the words were clear, old man Shen said to Shen Anmin: "Even if you want to build a house, the money is too much."

When they build a house in the countryside, that is to say, they pay for materials. The workers are all acquainted in the village to help, and the host just takes care of the meals.

In the case of the Shen family, they don't even need to hire someone else's house, they can be built by their own family.

For the cost of construction materials alone, even to build the best brick and tile house in the village, two or three hundred yuan is enough.

"Oh, the cat gave me two pictures." Shen Anmin slapped his forehead and took out two stacked pieces of paper from his pocket. Two houses were drawn inside, one was a two-story building and the other was a small farmhouse. hospital.

He commissioned someone to draw this, and he has no experience in this field, but he has seen a lot, and he probably knows what kind of room planning is more comfortable to live in - this is the homeowner's own years of experience so that he can remember it.

"Mao'er said, this picture is for our reference, just look at it if you think it is useful, and if you don't need it, just follow the way we used to build a house. It all depends on how comfortable you and the elders live."

"My cat is really careful." Grandma Shen is now talking about Chen Yu, and she can't praise her enough.

"Father, this building is great! It's a building!" Shen Anxing's eyes lit up, he had never lived in a building.

"What are you talking about, what are you talking about, is this for you to choose? This is my grandson's honor to me and your father." Grandma Shen sprayed unceremoniously, but Shen Anxing didn't let it go down.

The other juniors also looked at it eagerly. Although the small courtyard looked good, it was not as good as a building.

Mr. Shen asked Shen Anmin: "What do you think?"

"What the cat said, I listen to you." Shen Anmin said in a dull voice.

Mr. Shen rolled his eyes angrily. If it wasn't for the cat being your son, I wouldn't bother to ask you.

"In this case, let's build a building." It seems to be an understatement, but in fact, Mr. Shen is also very fond of it. This is a building, the only one in the whole village!

The son of his old Shen's family built a building for the family, what a prospect!

"Okay, the building is good." Grandma Shen touched the blueprints. Cultural people are different. It's really interesting to draw a picture before building a house.

Because they carried a huge sum of nearly 800 yuan, the Shen family members were cautious all the way. Shen Anmin, who carried the money, never let go of his hands sticking to the money.

Going all the way back, needless to say the sensation caused by the same clothes.

Second Aunt Shen was heartbroken: "It's all money!"

She now feels that it is not that difficult to do business. If there are still clothes, she can sell them here again.

As for this, when someone asked about clothes, Second Aunt Shen didn't ignore them because they were out of stock.

They said that they went to visit relatives and brought some clothes to their relatives. As soon as they got off the train station in the city, they were blocked by people. They insisted on buying clothes and bought them for them.

When the people in the county heard it, they rushed to ask for it in the city. The clothes must be good!

And look at what people are wearing, fashionable and stylish!

There was a fellow villager who happened to know Aunt Shen, and it was a pity that her family was in good condition, with only two sons, and the youngest son was about to marry her. If she could have such a dress, how decent she would be when she went to the girl's house!

It's a pity that the people in the city snatched it all up. The people in the city have a bad eye, and it's not a good thing. They all want it very rarely.

This fellow villager had just asked what Aunt Shen and the others were doing, and heard that Shen Chunlan (Aunt Shen) and her nephew bought all the things on them, and couldn't believe it!

It would be nice if her nephew didn't ask her for new clothes. How could she buy new clothes for her married aunt.

There are so many people, at first glance, they are all wearing brand new clothes, all new clothes!That nephew is too generous, isn't it true that the Shen family is poor and only a bunch of bachelors are left?Where did such a rich nephew come from?

Chen Yu will always come back to visit relatives in the future, he is so promising now, there is nothing he can't say.

Aunt Shen gave a general account of the experience of this trip, she knew what to say and what not to say.

Hearing this, the fellow villager was stunned. Shen Chunlan had an older brother who went to an educated youth's wife, and later the daughter-in-law ran away and took the baby away. She vaguely knew about it.

After all, it is this kind of gossip that spreads the fastest in the countryside.

Who would have thought that child would have such a great future? Shen Chunlan can say that it was all the child's own future. The child is smart and studies well, and the school is No. 1 in the exam. It is a good school in the city!

She is good at reading and can make money so much. If she hadn't seen Shen's family wearing new clothes with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed Shen Chunlan's words.

Believe it or not, the car was in town soon.

It's close to home from here, just walk back. Mr. Shen sent his eldest daughter to go home, so as not to have to come back later.

After leaving the town, Aunt Shen parted ways with the rest of the Shen family. Aunt Shen's family was still in a village behind Shangkanzi Village, which was called Xiakanzi Village after climbing half a mountain.

I don't know if it's because of bias, or because the name was not chosen well. It has always been poorer than Shangkanzi Village, and the Cao family is still considered a wealthy family in Lower Kanzi Village.

The Shen family returned to the village, far away, before entering the village, old men and women who were enjoying the cool under the big tree at the entrance of the village saw a group of people approaching.

A naughty doll ran to take a look, and exclaimed "Wow", "The Tiger King is back!"

Hu Niu waved her hand reservedly, this is her little brother, and some people called her a tigress, and she beat the city into a pancake.

"New clothes!" The sharp-eyed children shouted immediately when they saw the new clothes on Hu Niu's body.

The new clothes worn by the rest of the Shen family were naturally discovered too, so conspicuous, how could they not be seen.

The old men and women, as well as the villagers who heard the news and ran over to watch the fun, asked questions in one go, all of them curious and envious.

Didn't it mean that the Shen family gave Shen Laosan a baby who was brought to the city?Why did you come back dressed so brightly?

The Shen family was surrounded, and all their heads were raised high.

Grandma Shen laughed so hard that her eyes disappeared, and she talked to her old sister loudly: "All the cats bought for us were bought by him!"

"Hey, this doll is filial and treats our relatives well..." Everyone believed this, and they couldn't help but believe in these new clothes.

"Then Liang Fengxia is not a thing..." The old lady scolded, and the villagers were filled with righteous indignation. It was too much to have such a mother.

"My clothes look good? It suits me? Why are you talking nonsense? Hey, I said no. My cat insisted on buying it for me because it was right for me. Tell me, why am I an old woman wearing new clothes? What a waste, my cat is just too filial and sincere."

Filial piety, true filial piety.

No one in the village disagrees with this statement. If Shen Maoer is not filial, there will be no children in the village who are filial.

"Want to touch it? Come on, touch it, this is the material of the city..."

Grandma Shen was surrounded by the old sisters, and the rest of the Shen family were not too far behind.

The old men looked at the new coat and new shoes on the old man Shen, and their eyes were red with envy. Why doesn't he have such a good grandson.

They were all barefoot. If they didn't go out in summer, they would either wear straw sandals or simply go barefoot. It was too hot to cover them with cloth shoes.

This old man, what are you wearing!

"This one?" Mr. Shen bit his cigarette pot, calm and calm: "It's the sandals that people in the city wear in summer. It's nothing, but it's more comfortable than straw sandals. It's really expensive. A pair costs a few dollars. How about you?" It is uncomfortable to say that I stepped on a few dollars, I might as well wear straw sandals."

Old men: "..."

You take off your shoes if you feel uncomfortable, we don't mind!Stinky show off!

The young people's side was even more lively. Some of the brothers who had a good relationship with the Shen family had already pounced on them, and some directly asked them to take off their clothes for themselves to try.

This is the time to test whether the relationship is deep or not. You must have a really good relationship before you are willing to take off your new clothes and give them a try.

The rest of the Shen family who were not selected were just regretting not being able to go for a walk in the city before, but now they are really envious to death.

But no one said any harsh words, the people were selected by Mr. Shen, and he wanted to choose strong and capable ones. He didn't bring all of his own grandchildren, but only three.

I can only blame them for their lack of physical fitness, so let's see which one is better, and find a way to borrow the new clothes for two days to wear them with style.

Anyway, thinking about the money Shen Anmin was carrying, Mr. Shen sent his two grandsons to see Second Aunt Shen off, and everyone else went home.

Only Huniu was left as a little doll, surrounded by more dolls, scrambling to hear her talk about the city, their mouths drooling.

Probably hereditary, the little girl surrounded by her had the same expression on her face as Mr. Shen, but she was a little immature.

"There's nothing good in the city. We eat meat every day, all kinds of meat. My brother Mao'er bought a lot of them. I can't finish them all. I'm tired."

Children: "Wow!"

"What? Have you all eaten meat? The meat in the city is of course different. Have you ever eaten Dongpo meat? It's so tender that it melts when you sip it. Have you ever eaten fried meat? It's bigger than your basin. oil, then put the meat in and fry it, and take it out until it is fragrant, and take a bite..."

Huniu couldn't help sucking her saliva, but found that the sound of sucking was loud, and it turned out that all the children were sucking.

Huniu: "..."

"Cut, I don't know much." The little girl wiped the corner of her mouth and took out a few candies: "Look, there are also candies, which were also bought by my brother Maoer. I couldn't finish them all, but my brother won't let me eat too much." Too many, saying that I am afraid that I will damage my teeth.”

The children couldn't believe it, how could eating sugar damage their teeth? Sugar is the best thing.

"Anyway, what my brother said, he must be right!" Huniu said aggressively: "If you still listen, you are not allowed to say that my brother is wrong, otherwise you will not be allowed to listen, and I even went to the cinema to see it." What about movies, I'm going to talk about movies!"

"Listen, listen..."
