Chapter 32
While everyone was queuing up, Zhang Ze hurried into the room to greet everyone to get busy, and asked his elder brother to get the scale. He moved the square table for eating in the courtyard to the center of the courtyard, and then went to the room to get a clean notebook and pen.
"Sister-in-law, let me tell you how to record." Zhang Ze wrote the name, weight and price on the first line of the notebook. "Just follow what I wrote and register here, it's very simple."
He Xiaojuan hurriedly responded, picked up a pen and sat nervously behind the table.It was the first time for me to do this kind of work. If I put a big tea mug in front of me, it would be more like an accountant in the village. He Xiaojuan thought it was quite beautiful.At this time, Zhang Aidang also brought the scale, and stood beside the square table with old man Zhang.The old lady was standing next to them, staring at them arrogantly.
Zhang Aidang was extremely nervous being stared at by his mother, and was sweating profusely before he started working.Seeing that everyone was ready, Zhang Ze opened the door and let the people at the door go in one by one.
The first person in line happily carried a pole, and walked in with envious or jealous eyes from the people behind. "Aijun, look at my family's jujubes, I've picked the best ones and sent them here. Don't worry, I won't fool people. And these peanuts are all good."
"Okay, let's take a look." After Zhang Ze finished speaking, he took a small step back and it was the turn of the old lady and old man Zhang to appear. After all, they are considered elders in the village, and it would be best for them to check.
The old man Zhang and the old lady checked very carefully. After all, this is their own factory, and the one who received bad money and lost money was his son.The two of them pulled the jujube layer by layer into another frame to look at, and picked out all the ones that they thought were bad.After all, both of them are veterans of farming, how can they escape their eyes, Zhang Ze feels more at ease with them, after all, he is really not good at this point.After the two checked, they began to weigh.
"50 catties of red dates, 20 catties of peanuts, and 15 catties of black sesame." Zhang Aidang said loudly.
He Xiaojuan hurriedly picked up a pen and wrote it down. She knew most of the people in the village whose family they belonged to, so there was no need to ask for their names.Zhang Ze calculated the price, counted the money and handed it over.
"You count it, and we will be irresponsible to say that the money is not right after you leave the yard." Zhang Ze likes to put the ugliness first, so as to save time and confusion.
The man nodded his head to express his understanding. Isn't this the same way in business? He still understands this truth.
"I know, Brother Aijun." The man took the money, rubbed his thumb on his tongue and started counting, a total of 30 yuan and 8 cents, a lot of money.He laughed a few times, still feeling like he was not enjoying himself, and wanted to count again, when someone shouted from behind.
"I said Dazhu, have you finished counting yet? The ones behind us are still waiting."
"That's right, Dazhu, take the money home and count it slowly, it's blocking us, you're delaying things." The man's tone was reproachful, but there was a mocking smile on his face.After all, everyone can understand that it is not easy for villagers to make money, so it is okay to be cautious.
Da Zhu blushed when he was told, he apologized and smiled a few times. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll just get out of the way." After speaking, he picked up the pole and went to the side.
The second person stepped forward. It was Wang Dazhuang, the son of the village chief.Zhang Ze gave him a polite smile and nodded, just as a greeting.
"You take the money." After weighing it heavily, Zhang Ze handed over the money.
"Hey" Wang Dazhuang excitedly counted twice and left happily.
After harvesting for a while, the red dates and peanuts were harvested a lot, but the black sesame beans were too few, far from enough, Zhang Ze felt a little worried.At this time, a big brother came up, wearing a gray gown, his chiseled face was tanned, he was carrying a shoulder pole, both frames were full.There was a woman beside her, and there was a frame on her back, which was equally full.
"Brother Aijun, look at the things in my house, they are definitely the best." The man let out a silly smile after he finished speaking.
Zhang Ze had a little impression of this person, he was from the east of the village, and he was as honest as his elder brother.The family situation is also quite difficult. His mother is not in good health and cannot do heavy work, but his wife and he have 5 children at once, and the burden on the family is not small.The couple are the first to go to the field every day, and they don't go home until they can't see them. They have cleaned up the land at home very well, and even his old man is full of praise.
"Shuanzi, I really don't have anything to say about you." Old man Zhang couldn't pick out any bad ones after looking through them, presumably he had already picked them out at home.
The old lady also nodded.
Seeing that it was all over, Zhu Zi and his wife Zhang Cuilan breathed a sigh of relief.
"22 catties of red dates, 18 catties of peanuts, 30 catties of sesame seeds, and 15 catties of beans." Zhang Aidang quickly agreed, and He Xiaojuan also jotted it down in his pen. Zhang Ze paid, and the three cooperated very tacitly.
"Your family grows quite a lot of black sesame seeds." Zhang Ze said, it would be good for other families to have 10 catties.
"My mother is not in good health. The doctor said that eating this food is good for my health, so I grew more." Rural people don't have much skills, they only have the strength of their body, so it's nothing to grow a few things.He grows black sesame seeds not only for his own family, but also for money in the county, and for some Chinese medicine sellers.It's all right now, someone collected it at the door of the house, and I don't have to run so far in the future, it was really a mistake.
Shuanzi took the money and didn't leave in a hurry, but stood aside and counted happily.Zhang Cuilan was also very happy, but she looked a little absent-minded, and glanced at Zhang Ze to the side from time to time.
"Daughter-in-law, it's 40 yuan, 3 cents and 4 cents." With so much money, Shuanzi excitedly shared it with his wife.These things at home can be regarded as sold, and he feels that the burden on his shoulders has also been lifted, and now his whole body is much more relaxed.
"Daughter-in-law, let's go home and buy some meat for the children. Let's go." Life at home is not good, and they rarely eat meat. Anyway, some oil and water is also good.
Zhang Cuilan's expression was tangled, she pulled Shuanzi's sleeve and did not move. "Did you forget what I told you yesterday?"
Shuanzi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.Look at my memory, why did I forget such an important thing.He gave his daughter-in-law a naive smile, hurried to Zhang Ze and asked softly, "Brother Aijun, do you still accept black sesame seeds?"
Zhang Ze was puzzled, didn't he just finish talking about his family?He subconsciously replied: "Collect it." There are few people growing black sesame in his village, and he was afraid that he would not harvest enough.
Zhuzi rubbed his hands excitedly, "Well...my wife's natal family still has a lot of black sesame seeds, there must be one..." Zhuzi looked at his wife.
"More than 20 catties." Zhang Cuilan quickly replied.
"Yes, yes, do you want more than 20 catties?"
"Yes, you can bring it to me tomorrow, it's still the price."
"Xing" Zhuzi responded readily, and was grateful to Zhang Ze.Seeing that the matter was finally settled, Zhang Cuilan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled easily.His natal family is also having a hard time this year, so she can help a little.
Zhang Ze collected the goods all afternoon, and there were enough red dates and peanuts. It was the black sesame seeds, and there were too few beans.Zhang Ze told the big guys who were still queuing up, let those who have these two kinds stay, and those who don't can leave, and they will be collected later.
When the people in the back heard that they had received enough, they sighed bitterly and asked Zhang Ze when he would receive the goods next time, or if it was at this price.
"The price will be the same soon, so don't worry." Zhang Ze is sure that the sales of that batch of candy will not be bad once it goes on the market, and he will only ask for a lot more in the future. "Whoever has black sesame seeds and beans can bring them up, or if someone's relatives have some, they can also send them to me. The price is the same."
Everyone stopped complaining when they heard that those who were still frowning just now picked up their poles and walked home one after another, and they all dispersed after a while.Except for a small group of people who want to sell things, there are also some idlers who stay.With his hands in his trouser pockets, he dangled in front of Zhang Aijun's door, looking in from time to time, looking extremely dishonest.
"Aijun, your family collects so many things, you have to sell them for a lot of money." Er Mao stretched her neck and looked in greedily, looking at the things in the yard and the bulging satchel on Zhang Ze's body, her eyes were very hot .
The expressions of the people around the door changed when they heard this, and they moved to that side, wanting to hear it too.
"Hey, just earn some hard money." Of course he won't say how much he earns. Zhang Ze asked his eldest brother and his father to quickly pack up the collected things and move them into the house, so as to save some malicious people. People pay attention to themselves.
"Hey, don't be humble. You have opened a factory here. It's a big business. It's not the same as us mud legs. You can't look down on us as soon as you get rich, everyone said, right?" See Zhang Ze didn't tell him, and Er Mao pulled the big guy with a hippie smile and booed.
"Yes, Ai Jun, we are all in the same village. Don't worry, we will not tell others." Someone said.
"Hey, are you two out of your mind? How much money my family earns is none of your business. How much money my family earns is my family's fortune." Zhang Ze didn't say anything, but the old lady opened her mouth first, pointing at Ermao and blasting .
"Ermao, last time I saw that you came back from the county town carrying good things, big and small. Did you get rich somewhere?"
"I... When did I make a big bag and a small bag?" Er Mao looked around in a panic, afraid that others would hear.
I was already very careful last time, so I let someone see it again.
"Hey, what are you pretending for me?" The old lady said disdainfully, "What's wrong, I'm sorry to say where I got rich. Tell me about you, everyone is from the same village, you can't patronize you alone. Don't worry Tell me, I promise not to tell anyone else."
As soon as the words fell, the people around covered their mouths and started laughing.
Isn't this what Ermao said about the Aijun just now, and now the old lady has returned it to him.
Ermao couldn't hear it, his face was flushed and he didn't speak.
It's a joke, can he tell it?That was the money he won in the black gambling house in the county seat, if the villagers knew about it, it would be fine.
"Auntie, you can't do it, I'll just say it casually." Er Mao looked aggrieved, as if someone bullied him.
The old lady rolled his eyes at him and smiled, "That aunt just said casually that you wouldn't be able to."
As soon as these words came out, Er Mao's face turned green, and he couldn't pretend to be wronged anymore.With a frustrated expression on his face, he walked away dejectedly.
"Tch, who is it, you can't see others are good."
The author has something to say: No matter how humble I am, I want to collect it...
