80s beautiful work fine

Chapter 26 Chapter 26 [8 more]

In the evening and dusk, there are many rays of light.

Qi Ye had just borrowed an ox cart from the team, because there were too many folks who came to ask him to run errands, one basket after another, and he couldn't carry it with two hands.

However, the ox cart is not free to borrow. It is a public ox cart, and it has to be paid for by work points.

But Qi Ye has no work points. Since the spring of this year, he has been building his own house. By the end of the year, these work points will have to be paid for.

Cattle are an important productive force during spring plowing, so the ox cart costs one yuan a day to rent.

Qi Ye was very distressed, thinking about whether he could find a cheaper means of transportation in the town and rent it for a long time.

The folks are still surrounding his ox cart, exhorting me one by one.

"Qi Ye, mine is this basket, don't make a mistake."

"Qi Ye, can I get the money at noon tomorrow?"

"Qi Ye, don't break my egg, you should be careful."

Qi Ye was dealing with them one by one, when he suddenly saw Wang Hongfen walking over with a basket in his arms.

"Qi Ye, help me to bring some things to sell." Her loud voice is annoying to hear from a long distance.

Qi Ye frowned slightly every day, "The car is full, I can't take it with me."

Wang Hongfen stared, "What do you mean? Did you do it on purpose? I'm your aunt, you helped outsiders carry it, and you didn't carry it for me?"

Qi Ye looked at her coldly.

In his heart, she was no longer his aunt.

No matter how Wang Hongfen hopped, Qi Ye was indifferent, didn't even look at her again, and left quickly on the bullock cart.

Jiang Mo smiled and watched Qi Ye move the vegetable baskets filled with green vegetables and fruits from the bullock cart.

She curled her lips and counted, there were 26 in total, "I can earn two yuan and sixty cents."

Qi Ye lowered his eyebrows, "The bullock cart probably costs one yuan."

"It's okay." Jiang Mo smiled, "Look again, if there are so many baskets to bring every day, let's rent a carriage."

Horses are not productive and are cheaper than cattle.

Qi Ye nodded, and after discussing these trivial matters, the two walked into the state-run hotel.

Whether it's the waiter, the manager, or the chefs here, they all know Jiang Mo very well.

At first, all the arrogant waiters looked down on Jiang Mo, but now they all love to talk to Jiang Mo, asking her what color clothes go with what kind of shoes, what color head flowers look best.

The chefs didn't like Jiang Mo at first, they thought she was picky, and they always thought that their dish was unpalatable and that dish was not good-looking.

But later, after they improved according to what Jiang Mo said, their cooking skills improved a lot, the food became more beautiful and delicious, and more and more guests came here.

So Jiang Mo is now in this small state-run restaurant, and he can be said to be proud of the spring breeze, like a duck in water.

Jiang Mo said casually, and they bought all the vegetables on the ox cart.

Anyway, I buy vegetables wherever I buy them. Besides, these country dishes are fresh and tender, and the dishes are fried, and customers like them very much.

For the next two days, Qi Ye would receive two or three yuan for running errands every day when he went back and forth.

With so many households in the Xifeng Production Brigade, there are always fresh fruits and vegetables to be sent to the town for sale.

No matter how bad it is, you can go to Dafeng Mountain, plan and dig, and you can always get a big basket together.

Qi Ye and Jiang Mo discussed together and went to the town to find someone to rent a carriage.

It only costs fifty cents a day, which is more cost-effective than the ox carts of the production team, but the fodder for the horses must be obtained by oneself.

This is not a burden for Qi Ye, he has to go to the mountain to chop wood every day, and cut some fresh grass for the horse to eat, but it eats it happier and runs harder.

There is a carriage, which can hold more baskets, but Qi Ye finds that there are fewer people who come to ask him to run errands.

He was busy building a house on the homestead every day, and the things he collected were sent by everyone, and he didn't walk around the village, so he didn't know until Wang Chunhua told him.

Some people followed suit and started collecting money to run errands!

This person is called Zhao Dayong, and Qi Ye also knew him. They both grew up in the same production brigade, and they played together since they were young, but they didn't get so close to the Wang family brothers.

Zhao Dayong has a bright mind since he was a child. He is the best at imitating others, and he also likes to imitate others. When he was a child, he had a nickname called "Xue Ren Jing". Studious.

It's just that what other people like to play, he said what he likes to play, and wherever others like to play, he likes to go to play.

"This matter about Zhao Dayong is really unkind." But when he mentioned the matter of running errands, Wang Chunhua was filled with righteous indignation and sat on the stone, patting his thigh and talking.

Qi Ye was still immersed in sorting out the pile of rubble at the bottom of the pit, and had no time to talk, so he just listened to Wang Chunhua talking non-stop.

"You're just running errands. He's fine. He doesn't even have to work. He's got a carriage from somewhere, and he's picking up vegetables every day, and he's dragging them to the town to sell them!"

Anyway, they just hired someone to run, except for the few families that have a good relationship with Qi Ye, they are too lazy to come to Qi Ye's homestead now, so it's not the same to let Zhao Dayong take it.

Wang Chunhua pulled a long face, "He imitated your routes exactly! Why charge a dime for running errands for each basket! Why set a price, and you will pay 100 yuan for lying! You are really a good learner! No one is using their brains!"

Qi Ye pursed his lips and said nothing. He only collected five baskets today, and the huge carriage seemed empty.

The fifty cents he earned was exactly the rent of a carriage for a day, which was equivalent to busy work for nothing.

Back in the town, Jiang Mo really wrinkled her pretty little nose, and glanced at the carriage with distaste, "Why are there fewer and fewer cars?"

Qi Ye bowed his head and told Jiang Mo about the matter.

Jiang Mo raised her eyebrows. It's not surprising that someone would learn this trick. Whoever doesn't learn such a money-making thing is a fool.

It's just... hmph, the other party didn't seem very polite, he didn't even say hello, didn't come to thank him, and didn't come to pay the tuition fee!

Then, she will teach the other party what it means to be innocent.

Jiang Mo hooked Qi Ye's neck, "Squat down a bit."

Qi Ye thought she wanted him to carry her back, and obediently bent down, but Jiang Mo leaned closer to his ear and said a few words.

After finishing speaking, Qi Ye's dark pupils shook slightly, a little surprised, "But, if it can't be sold..."

Jiang Mo straightened her body, her voice soft and aggrieved, "Qi Ye, you don't believe me?"

These words seemed to be stepped on Qi Ye's heart, and he was so distressed that he quickly waved his hands and explained: "No, I don't."

Jiang Mo chuckled, "I see you are anxious and teasing you, I know you will believe me."

Qi Ye nodded heavily, and finally heaved a sigh of relief, wiping the sweat from his palms.

Jiang Mo narrowed her eyes, and there was a deeper smile in her eyes. She felt that it was cute and cute to play tricks on Qi Ye and see him rushing over her.

the next day.

Qi Ye chose another time at noon to go to the farmland where everyone went to work.

Unexpectedly, I met Zhao Dayong at the fork in the road.

Zhao Dayong had just collected things from a family, and he was holding a vegetable basket in his left and right hands, and he was grinning from ear to ear.

Recently he made a fortune!I don't know how Qi Ye came up with such a good idea, but it's a pity that Qi Ye was busy building a house and couldn't come to collect things, and everyone was too lazy to run, so he took such a big bargain!

Zhao Dayong was smiling, and when he turned around, he saw Qi Ye looking at him from a distance, silent and his eyes darkened.

The smile on Zhao Dayong's face froze on the spot. He was carrying two baskets, neither letting them go, nor leaving, nor greeting, nor pretending not to see.

All in all, very embarrassing.

Qi Ye withdrew his cold gaze, Zhao Dayong carried the basket, bit the bullet, and passed by Qi Ye.

He opened his mouth to speak, but swallowed all the words back, he was too guilty to speak.

The sun rose at noon, and it was still spring, neither too dry nor too hot. Everyone was eating lunch with the cool breeze blowing, chatting a few words in the fields, and it was the most comfortable time of the day.

Seeing Qi Ye, everyone just greeted them casually, "Qi Ye, why are you here again? We have asked Zhao Dayong to run errands in the town recently, and his legs are also fast... You are not angry when you look like this? "

"What's so good about Zhao Dayong running errands." Wang Chunhua was also there, and immediately retorted, "He collects things for one day, and then goes to the town to sell them for another day. It takes two days to receive the money! It's not like Qi Ye, I yesterday I got the money for the food given to him at noon today, hey, wouldn’t it be nice to have the money in my hands earlier?”

Wang Chunhua took a stack of bills from Qi Ye, deliberately counting them in front of everyone.

... Everyone felt that it seemed good that the money could be obtained in advance, or should they still go to Qi Ye?

However, Wang Hongfen was the first to object.

Qi Ye refused to help her send the vegetables to the town to sell from the beginning to the end, but Zhao Dayong came to collect them every time.

Obviously one is a nephew and the other is an outsider, this comparison makes Wang Hongfen so depressed that he can't say it!

She had already made up her mind. She was Qi Ye's aunt, and she asked Qi Ye to run errands. Could it be that he still had the nerve to charge her for running errands?Then you can save a dime every time!

But Qi Ye really became so shrewd recently, he just refused to accept her food basket!

Before Zhao Dayong started running errands, she went to the homestead where Qi Ye built a house several times to find her, but every time she got a bad nose.

Thinking of this, Wang Hongfen became angry!

In front of everyone, she began to speak ill of Qi Ye, "Zhao Dayong is called an errand runner! He came to collect it himself! Where is Qi Ye? He also asked us to send it to his homestead with a vegetable basket! He also I charge a dime for running errands, we are the ones running errands, how embarrassing!"

... Everyone felt, yes, anyway, they have to pay a dime, so why not wait comfortably for someone to come to their door?

It's not necessary to let Qi Ye earn this dime.

Qi Ye suddenly said: "From now on, I will charge a dime for a bamboo basket."

As soon as he said this, everyone was taken aback and realized.

Bamboo basket?Bamboo baskets are much bigger than bamboo baskets!Can hold more things!

Isn't that much more cost-effective than Zhao Dayong's?Zhao Dayong charges a dime for a bamboo basket!

Everyone thought about it, OK!Let's go to Qi Ye's place in the future.

When Wang Hongfen saw it, she became anxious. She would rather let Zhao Dayong make money than see Qi Ye make money.

She just wanted Qi Ye to come back in desperation and beg herself, not to go out to divide the family, to work for the Qi family, to hand in all the money and work points earned, as before.

Wang Hongfen gritted her teeth, and said in a loud voice: "What kind of bamboo basket! How can we have a bamboo basket of vegetables to sell? You're just trying to trick us into going to your place! If you really want to be cheap, why don't you have one?" You can charge five cents for a bamboo basket? Isn’t it the same?”

On this kind of matter, Wang Hongfen's brains have always been quick.

When she said that, everyone was confused.

That's right, a bamboo basket is so big, how can they sell so many vegetables, is Qi Ye fooling people?Why do you charge a lot for running errands?

At this time, Qi Ye cleared his throat and said, "Not only melons, fruits and vegetables, but also things that you don't need at home, wood, stones, broken copper and rotten iron, as long as they are useful, put them in bamboo baskets. I can sell it for you.”

... Everyone suppressed their heartbeat, so capable?Almighty sell?

You know, it is not easy to sell something in the bazaar.

There are all kinds of things, some are very cheap, some are of good quality, and some have a good attitude. No one has to buy things here.

Even the melons, fruits and vegetables that are eaten three meals a day, there are a lot of them sold in the bazaars. Qi Ye can directly sell them to small state-run restaurants, while Zhao Dayong relies on the bazaars to squat Only by being sweet and talkative all day can they be sold out.

Not everyone can do this errand job, let alone Qi Ye said that he can sell anything?

This statement is too far-fetched.

Wang Hongfen rolled her eyes and took a sip, "Qi Ye, you have been honest since you were a child, when did you learn to lie and brag? You even boasted that you could sell them all? In order to earn a dime for running errands, you Are you guilty of lying to these folks who watched you grow up?"

The relatives of Liu Juxiang's family also refused to believe it, and echoed, carrying a hoe, "It's no fun if you lie to others. What if you can't sell it? You don't charge for running errands?"

Qi Ye still said the same thing, "It will definitely be sold."

Liu Cuihua snorted, "You mean if you can't sell it, you still have to charge for running errands? That's interesting, your food looks too ugly, I might as well ask Zhao Dayong to run errands."

Many people nodded, mainly because what Qi Ye said was unreliable.

But despite this, those who have always been friends with Qi Ye, those who trust Qi Ye very much, and those who are half-believing and want to try, all sent bamboo baskets.

Put more than half of the fruits and vegetables in the bamboo basket, and put some unused things, anyway, it is not a loss if you can't sell it and bring it back, and it is more than the vegetables that cost a dime to pack in the bamboo basket.

All kinds of things are piled up in the carriage, and there is actually a whole carriage loaded.

In the evening, Qi Ye drove the carriage back to the town.

To be honest, even he himself didn't know how to sell this messy carriage.

But Jiang Mo said that he could sell out, so he believed her unconditionally and without reason, and was willing to use his character as a guarantee in front of the villagers.

Jiang Mo looked at the things on the carriage, but said nothing. After eating, the two of them took the carriage back to the small courtyard of the guest house.

After renting the carriage, they discussed with Luo Ping and vacated a small space in the backyard, where Qi Ye put a hitching post.

Every night, the horses eat grass, sleep and rest in this small corner.

The things on the board of the carriage were moved to their small single room on the second floor, so as not to be stolen.

This time, Jiang Mo didn't sell those melons, fruits, vegetables and eggs to the small state-run restaurant, but asked Qi Ye to move them there.

Qi Ye was full of energy anyway, so he didn't care about moving a few more times.

Just as he was carrying things, Jiang Mo was sitting in the small courtyard eating the Sophora japonica milk tea made by Luo Ping, guarding the unfinished bamboo baskets on the carriage.

Hong Jin is here again.

When he saw Jiang Mo, he frowned subconsciously as if he had seen a plague god.

He now fully understands that this woman is not easy to mess with, because if he messes with her, that terrible man of hers will deal with him.

Thinking of the pain of being pinched until his bones seemed to be broken, Hong Jin's eyes flashed with hatred and fear.

He didn't dare to bully Luo Ping at this time, but seeing Qi Ye busy moving things up and down, he remembered what Luo Ping said when he came back a few days ago, that this young couple seemed to be collecting things from those country people , and then go to the market to sell.

At the gate, Hong Jin looked at the pile of broken pots and jars on the carriage, as well as rusty axes, a pile of rotten stones, and wood broken into strange shapes.

Can these rags be sold?

No one will steal it on the carriage!
