husband in another world
Chapter 41
Shen Mo was stunned for a while and said, "You also think this is a good method?"
Butcher Wu should nod his head and said: "Of course, it can't be better, it's just wonderful. Brother Zhou, how did you grow your head? Thanks to you, you can come up with such a method."
Zhou Jingdao: "It's not that the heavy rain a few days ago caused the family to lose a lot of money for nothing. At that time, I was thinking that sausages would not stand up in this kind of weather. Instead of waiting for it to go bad, I would sell it cheaper. To the neighbors, they eat well, and I can also recover some costs. Unexpectedly, this move has become a failure for my Zhou Jing in the eyes of people with good intentions. This is not because of the duck business and several families in the village. The contract, among them, came to the door restlessly and forced me to buy his ducks with money. Although it was resolved in the end, I was holding a sigh of relief in my heart. I also felt that the stall business was too dependent on the weather. If the weather was bad, the stall would not be able to open. The income of the family was cut off, so I came up with such a method."
Butcher Wu said: "You are a blessing in disguise. However, Brother Zhou, if you really have money that you can't turn around, just say no. I can't help you, but you want to take as much as you want for pork, and I will give you the silver after you sell it." There is absolutely nothing wrong with my brother."
"Thank you." In addition to the ten catties of sausages sent to the restaurant, he still had three catties left in his back basket, and he took out half and handed it to Butcher Wu, saying, "I know you're welcome, I haven't eaten it for so many days, so I specially give it to you." You keep some."
The butcher Wu hurriedly took the money and wanted to pay it to Zhou Jing, but Zhou Jing refused to take it.
Butcher Wu said: "It's not good to always eat your food for nothing."
Zhou Jing smiled and said, "Where is it? You usually praise my business, I know it."
The two of them gave in to each other again before they bid farewell.
Before it rained, Zhou's family was busy from morning to night when they set up a stall. At the earliest time, they had to have dinner in the village before they could get home.Today, it was only about an hour after lunch, which is still too early according to the sky. I was seen by some idlers in the village, and rumors gradually spread.
"The Zhou family's business is no longer in business. Did you see that? They came back so early. It must be that the stalls were out of business and no one bought them, so they had to come back early."
"No way, I think if you can't sell it, you should stay until late. If it's sold out, you'll come back early, otherwise you might be able to sell a lot of food this afternoon."
"That's because you didn't see it in the morning. The Zhou family made a lot of sausages, and the floor was full of three big baskets. So it is said that it would cost seven to eighty catties, or a hundred catties. No matter how good the business is, it is impossible to sell them all in one morning." It is only because the business is too bad that no one buys it at all, and it would be a waste of time to continue there, so I will come back."
Everyone was chattering, saying everything.Those who are jealous, those who simply join in the fun, and those who are pure in nature, everyone insists on their own opinions and get together to talk nonsense.
Aunt Shen joined the crowd, occasionally asking a few questions, all related to the income of the Zhou family.Everyone gossiped and dispersed with satisfaction on their faces, but Aunt Shen walked home worried.
Wang Dali was feeding the ducklings, and seeing Mrs. Shen's worried face, he asked, "Mother, what happened?"
Aunt Shen sighed and said: "I'm afraid the Zhou family is really not doing well this time. I just went out and saw his family came back from the town so early. Everyone in the village said that the Zhou family came back because they couldn't sell their goods."
Wang Dali was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Then what should we do with our ducks? If they don't accept the investment of so much money, where can we sell them?"
However, Aunt Shen patted Wang Dali on the shoulder and hated iron and steel, and said: "Silly son, what time is this, and you are still thinking about this. I have already asked Matchmaker Wang to go to Zhou's house to propose a kiss to you. I gave her a lot of money, if Zhou Jing's business really fails, shall we refund this marriage or not?"
For a while, Mrs. Shen and Wang Dali hesitated and sighed.
The atmosphere inside the Zhou family was very tense. Although Shen Mo didn't complain about Zhou Jing, he was skeptical of Zhou Jing's decision and always felt that he would suffer a terrible loss.I was so worried all night that I couldn't sleep well, I tossed and turned until midnight and fell asleep vaguely.However, in the morning when Zhou Jing made any movement, he woke up startled, and slept soundly on weekdays, often asking Zhou Jing to prepare a meal and call him.
"You don't sleep for a while anymore. I heard that you slept very restlessly yesterday. Dreaming and talking in your sleep at night are all business matters."
Shen Mo said: "I'm not going to sleep anymore, and I can't sleep well even if I barely fall asleep, it's better to get up early and do things."
It took them half a cup of tea to get up, and Shen Lin woke up. He also had thick dark circles under his eyes, and he didn't sleep well.
Zhou Jing was in charge of making the soup and cooking the sausages.The two brothers, Shen Mo and Shen Lin, were in charge of making breakfast and bringing lunch to the market.
Every morning when eating, the Zhou family's dinner table was full of conversations or discussions about regular customers.Today's atmosphere was unprecedentedly low, Zhou Jing started a conversation, and Shen Mo answered intentionally, but he often answered in the wrong way, and he had something on his mind when he saw it.
The three of them hurriedly picked up their food, drove the mule cart to the entrance of the village, Wang Dali hurriedly chased after him, obviously in a hurry, pulling a shoe.
"Shen Lin... Shen Lin..." Wang Dali kept shouting after following the car.
When Zhou Jing heard the reins being pulled, the carriage stopped.
Shen Lin who was sitting behind the car jumped down and walked over.
"What did you call me?"
Wang Dali frowned, his attitude was very bad, and he seemed to ask: "Why didn't you call me, I heard that your house went out of business yesterday?"
Shen Lin was stunned for a moment before reacting.
"Sorry, I forgot to tell you that you don't need to come to help. A few days ago, my elder brother was not in good health, and my brother-in-law had to stay at home to take care of him. I was afraid that I would not be able to work alone at the stall, so I asked you to come and help. Now I After this period of cultivation, the eldest brother has recovered a lot, and the business at the stall can be done, and the three of us can definitely come over, so we won't invite anyone."
Wang Dali was very dissatisfied with this answer, and said in a cold tone: "Isn't it because your family's business is not good?"
Shen Lin was dumbfounded by the question, and then he couldn't help laughing when he thought that the villagers might have spread some rumors when they saw them come back so early yesterday.
"It's not for this reason, it's simply because there are enough people."
Wang Dali took a deep look at Shen Lin, the look in that look was very strange, it seemed to contain some kind of vague and ambiguous hint, and this hint should or must be known by Shen Lin, with obvious tacit understanding.
However, Shen Lin was at a loss. Monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't understand why he was watching Wang Dali's back gradually disappearing.
"Little brother!" Shen Mo called Shen Lin's voice in the car, and Shen Lin came back to his senses and jumped into the mule cart.
"What's the matter, what does Wang Dali want from you?" Shen Mo asked.
Shen Lin said: "It should be to ask why our family doesn't use him anymore. I told him that the three of us are enough."
"That's it? Then why do I see something wrong with your expression?"
Shen Lin pondered slowly and said: "Brother, I always feel that Wang Dali seems to have misunderstood something. Obviously I didn't do anything, and I avoided everything that should be avoided. I didn't even talk to him before our family asked him to work. I said a few words, but he gave me the feeling... as if I secretly admired him."
This time it was Shen Mo who was stunned, and said after a long time: "No way, didn't you have little contact with him before, maybe Wang Dali has that temper, and you think too much. Besides, Mrs. Shen of his family attaches great importance to incense, so she will definitely not be willing Wang Dali said about Shuang'er."
Shen Lin nodded and said, "Maybe, I hope."
Not long after setting up the stall in the town, the morning market started. Crowds poured in one after another, and the front of Zhou's stall gradually became busy. Zhou Jing then followed to collect money and introduce.In addition, the work and rest of the shops in the town are different from those of the peasants. They often have to wait for the morning market to disperse, and some restaurants have just opened, so even if they are anxious and wish to know the result of the trial sale immediately, they still have to wait.
The morning market dissipated, Zhou Jing carried the bamboo baskets and left, leaving the two brothers Shen Mo and Shen Lin guarding in front of the stall, a little absent-minded. Knowing that Zhou Jing would not come back so early, he couldn't help but look around.
Until the afternoon market dissipated, when Zhou Jing came back yesterday, and Zhou Jing was still missing, Shen Mo couldn't sit still.
He was so anxious that he turned around in circles and asked Shen Lin tirelessly over and over again: "Brother Jing, why hasn't he come back? Could it be that the results of some of the trial sales were not good, or he was bullying others. He said he didn't have it after selling it, that is. Don't want to pay us."
Just as Shen Lin was about to speak to persuade, a man with a busy face and a smile on his face came over at the entrance of the market.
Even though Zhou Jing laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, Shen Mo was half relieved. After all, he still had half of his heart hanging. He hurriedly asked, "How was the result of the trial sale?"
Zhou Jing laughed twice and said: "Very good, most of the restaurants only have one or two catties left, this is because our family has just launched Zhou Ji sausage, customers don't know its reputation yet, after waiting for a long time, more people know about it , with repeat customers joining, I believe our business will definitely get better and better."
"Three restaurants have already signed a long-term contract with me, agreeing to officially deliver the goods tomorrow, and the order quantity is the same as yesterday. There are also a few restaurants that plan to continue to try the effect of trial sales, but there is still a lot of money that should be paid to us. It's over."
Shen Mo almost jumped up happily.
"The capital came out, how much was thrown away, and how much was settled?"
Zhou Jingdao: "A total of two hundred copper coins were settled, and the sausages were only thrown away for a total of two catties, and the duck products were thrown away with some potato chips and seaweed buckle, which was less than half a catty."
"Really, that's great!" The heart that had been hanging all this time finally let go. "The restaurant can sell two hundred coins, and our stall can sell seven hundred coins, and the sum is two nine hundred coins, which is nearly three taels. The net profit is six hundred coins, which is 49 yuan a month. Two! My God, 49 taels!"
Shen Lin took a deep breath, "Isn't it true that no matter how well the land is cultivated by the people in the village, they can't earn what we earn a month in a year."
Zhou Jing smiled and said, "Exactly."
Shen Mo smiled happily, "We have been blessed by misfortune. If God hadn't forced this rain, we would not have thought of this step. It can be seen that there is no unparalleled road."
Zhou Jingdao: "Xiao Mo, you are right to think so, but the calculation is not right."
Shen Mo immediately became nervous, "Where did I make a mistake, can't we make that much money?"
"I'm not saying that you count too much, but you count too little! This is just the beginning. We have only signed contracts with these few companies. We will continue to increase the amount starting tomorrow. I still want to continue to promote. There is no need for more. The whole town As long as one of the dozen or so food shops on the Internet sells our food, then our family is really sitting at home and counting money."
Shen Mo didn't dare to calculate how much it was, and was dazed by the infinite possibilities of the future.
"Let's go, the rest are not for sale, and we have to send them to a few new restaurants that have agreed to try selling them."
This time Shen Mo was very happy, wishing that all the restaurants would try to sell his food for a while.
Seeing Shen Mo's smiling face on Yan Yan's face, Butcher Wu affirmed with a smile, "It's done."
"Well, it's done." Shen Mo said with a smile: "Today we have to add a lot, 150 catties of meat."
"No problem, I'll cut it for you." Butcher Wu said while cutting the meat quickly: "Brother Zhou, when you first came to discuss business with me, I thought of today. Swim in a dive."
Zhou Jing said: "Thank you, I accept your good words."
There was too much meat, and it was loaded on a mule cart by three men.
Zhou Jing suddenly said: "Our family hasn't eaten dumplings since I woke up, how about making dumplings today, it's a celebration."
"Dumplings?" Shen Lin swallowed a mouthful of saliva after repeating these two words.
The current life of the Zhou family is not only incomparable to the past, but even incomparable to the entire village.Because if you want to make up for Shen Mo, you must guarantee a meat dish, and this alone is impossible for the villagers, and they dare not think about it.But the Zhou family is actually already living this kind of life.
However, although the standard of living has improved, after all, it has only been a few months, and the belly of Shen Mo and Shen Lin who has been short of oil and water since childhood is still very scarce.Especially this kind of food that the villagers were willing to eat during the Chinese New Year.
Shen Mo was also very greedy, but he was more ashamed.He tugged at the hem of his bunt, and stammered, "I, I don't know how to make dumplings. It's not that I'm lazy, it's because no one has ever taught me how to make dumplings." He was deeply concerned about the fact that a pair of children can't make dumplings Yu Huai.
Shen Lin hurriedly explained for his elder brother: "It's not that elder brother doesn't want to learn it, but that when mother was still alive, elder brother was still young, and children were not allowed to do delicate food such as making dumplings. Leaked traps, spoiled things. Later, my mother was gone, and Wang Chunhua didn't allow us to start. During the holidays, I would burn two potatoes for my elder brother and me and drive them out. I was afraid that if my elder brother and I would make dumplings along I hid it secretly, and cooked and ate it myself. So it’s not that the elder brother is unwilling to learn, but that no one taught us.”
With just a few words, Zhou Jing could imagine the hardships that the little husband had suffered in the past.These people who have nothing to do with suffering will feel pitiful at most, but those who really care about others will feel distressed when they hear it.It is a kind of dull pain, a pain that slowly and slowly separates, lasting and fresh, every time I think of it, it is like a heart disease in my pocket, and I will never give up until it hurts a little bit.
Zhou Jing covered Shen Mo's hand, his tone was as gentle as water, and his pulse was tender.
"It's okay, Xiaomo. If you can't do it, I will, and I will teach you. No matter what you can't do in the future, I will teach you."
Zhou Jing's palm was scorching hot, it was really hot in the scorching summer, but this heat made Shen Mo miss him infinitely, and he was reluctant to let go.
He plucked up the courage to shake back his hand on the street, and hummed lightly.
Butcher Wu should nod his head and said: "Of course, it can't be better, it's just wonderful. Brother Zhou, how did you grow your head? Thanks to you, you can come up with such a method."
Zhou Jingdao: "It's not that the heavy rain a few days ago caused the family to lose a lot of money for nothing. At that time, I was thinking that sausages would not stand up in this kind of weather.
