Chapter 15
This year, it is really expensive to send telegrams, and a word is 3.5 points. Jiang Yao tried to be concise and to the point on the premise of explaining things clearly, but still got 20 words. In the end it took seventy cents to send the telegram.
Lu Che rushed to pay the money, and it was hard to push it in front of the postal staff. When he walked out of the post office, Jiang Yao said, "You can't let you pay for this telegram. I'll give it back to you now."
"No." Lu Che insisted on giving it himself, "You provide the seed source, and I will pay the telegram, which is very reasonable."
"..." Jiang Yao couldn't refute what he wanted to say, so he could only suggest: "In the future, we will cooperate with the vegetable work. You should pay the telegram money first, and then deduct it after the settlement."
"Okay." Lu Che didn't hesitate now, and readily agreed.
From a landlord-tenant relationship to a business partner relationship, they are no longer strangers along the way.
As long as she thinks that the Lu family's vegetable garden is big enough and there are many factories in the county, Jiang Yao is full of confidence in this road to wealth. However, she was still uncertain, so she asked Lu Che: "The factories in the county are all state-owned units. Will they look down on our private business?"
"Of course not." Lu Che was quite confident in this point, "I have delivered firewood to the state-owned factories in that area for several years, and every canteen director is worried about buying vegetables, let alone vegetables, if there is meat, they will dare to Take it. Anyway, it can make the factory workers eat and eat, even if they do their jobs well, they don’t care where the ingredients come from.”
With his words, Jiang Yao was completely relieved.
All the way back, they talked from the planning of the Lujia Caiyuanzi to the plan to deliver vegetables to the factory canteen in the future. Only then did Jiang Yao know that although Lu Che was a firewood delivery man, he was familiar with the canteen purchases of the county state-owned factory.
With his communication skills, it is no wonder that business will be smooth sailing in the future.
Because of the good conversation, the journey back seems to be shortened. When he was about to reach the entrance of Qingyuan Village, Lu Che returned the things to Jiang Yao and asked her to take it back by herself, and then went to the production team to pay and record centimeters without looking back.
"Do you need to draw a line so quickly?" Jiang Yao murmured in a low voice, then returned to Lu's house with her things.
Two days later, the Qingyuan production team ushered in the day of food distribution.
After accounting, each member can share 100 catties of grain. This is raw grain. The yield of rice is 60%. After the rice is milled, each person will actually get 60 jins. There is still half a year before the final weight. After conversion, it is 10 jins of rice per person per month.
These days, people's labor and consumption are large, and these ten kilograms of rice are obviously a drop in the bucket.
This time, the educated youth can also participate in the distribution of food, including Jiang Yao, who has been here for three months. Anyway, the grain is settled in centimeters at the end of the year, and if the centimeters are not enough, money is used to make up for it.
Even if there is not much food distributed, it is a festive day for distribution of food, and every household queues up outside the granary early in the morning.
Jiang Yao was also pulled over by Lu Qing early in the morning. She said, "Let's report the numbers together later, let Lu Che all pick them home, and give you your 100 pounds."
"Okay, thank you." Jiang Yao replied with a smile.
When they arrived, there was already a long queue in front of them. But they were not in a hurry, because Lu Che went to pick up firewood for the rice noodle factory early this morning and didn't come back so early.
Everyone followed the people in front and slowly moved forward, but there was only one woman who was chatting with people everywhere beside the team.
This woman, Jiang Yao recognized, was Zhao Pengfei's cousin Chen Shuanglian, a well-known shrew in Qingyuan, but the smile on her face did not stop today, it was really strange.
Soon, Jiang Yao learned the reason from the conversation with the previous woman.
It turned out that the current tractor driver Lu Zhisen in the team was the son of Chen Shuanglian. She took this opportunity to ask Lu Zhisen to help the commune members with the tractor to transport the food home, and use the publicity to gain goodwill.
Hearing that there is such a cheap price, many members rushed to post a smiley face to Chen Shuanglian, but there were also some who disliked her, saying that she was shameless, and they had to pick her back no matter how hard she worked.
Of course Lu Qing would not join in the fun. Chen Shuanglian looked down on her background and would definitely not help her luck. But with Lu Che there, there is no need at all.
When there were two households left, Lu Che came back.
The Lu family's pair of bamboo baskets can hold 200 catties of grain at a time, and all the grain can be picked up with just three round trips.
When picking the third round, Lu Qing and Jiang Yao also went back with Lu Che.
When they were about to reach the door of Lu's house, there was a "bang rumbling" sound from behind. Without looking back, I knew that this was Lu Zhisen driving a tractor.
"Hey, bastard, the tractor is here, hurry up and move aside." Lu Zhisen shouted.
Jiang Yao and Lu Qing both walked to the side of the road when they heard the sound. As if Lu Che didn't hear it, he still walked steadily forward one step at a time.
"Lu Che, don't be angry with them, let it go." Lu Qing advised.
Lu Che didn't respond, and continued to walk forward quickly.
Lu Zhisen saw that he didn't mean to give way at all, but he was angry, so he speeded up, and when he passed by him, he scolded: "A good dog doesn't stand in the way, you are not a good dog at first sight."
As soon as the voice fell, the "bang rumbling" sound suddenly stopped.
Lu Zhisen was dumbfounded, and when he reacted, he realized that the second-hand car had fallen to his knees again.
When the chain fell off at a critical moment, Lu Zhisen was ashamed and angry, and a few villagers on the road who were picking food all laughed happily when they saw it.
"It must be that some people are too arrogant, even God can't stand it."
"That's right, I used a public tractor to sell favors, and I thought I was amazing."
"What's so great about being able to drive a tractor. If it breaks, you don't have to ask Lu Che to fix it. There is a tractor that you drive yourself and repair it yourself.
"..."
Everyone said something to me, and Lu Zhisen was so angry that he pointed at the villagers on the road and cursed.
Lu Che glanced at him, without any pause in his footsteps, he directly carried the food back to Lu's house.
Jiang Yao and Lu Qing looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh. It's just that Jiang Yao laughed and Lu Qing was snickering. She was used to being low-key and didn't want to be held revenge by anyone.
When Lu Che put the last two load of grain into the warehouse, the small granary that the Lu family devoted to the grain finally piled up into a small valley.
"There are a lot of people going to the production team to grind rice recently. I'll pick it out next week when there are fewer people, and then I'll carry the rice to your kitchen." Lu Che said, standing opposite Jiang Yao.
Because he had just finished his work, he was sweating profusely, and the exposed wheat-colored skin was slightly red. It was obvious that they were at least half a meter apart, but she seemed to be able to feel the heat on his body, making her feel that she was getting hot too.
"Okay." Jiang Yao couldn't help lowering her head, Lu Che glanced at her jet-black hair, and went out.
Lu Qing and the old lady had to organize the food so that they would not be eaten by the damp or the rats. Zhou Yang and Zhou Xin were helping out and had a great time.
Jiang Yao stayed for a while and couldn't help, so she went out.
As soon as she walked to the door of her room, she heard someone calling Lu Che outside, and when she went out, it turned out to be Lu Zhisen.
Lu Zhisen had a stinky face, but when he saw Jiang Yao, a beautiful provincial capital, his face immediately became much better, and he asked, "Jiang Zhiqing, that... Is Lu Che here?"
There was no expression on Jiang Yao's face at first, but when she remembered that he scolded Lu Che just now, her face suddenly turned cold, and she looked at him with contempt.
Lu Zhisen clearly felt her disgust for him, and couldn't help but feel ashamed for his hot face sticking to his butt, "What's your face?"
Jiang Yao sneered, "What kind of thing are you, what kind of face do I look like?"
"You..." Lu Zhisen was completely irritated, and when he was about to scold someone, Lu Che came out of it and asked blankly, "What's the matter?"
"Go and fix the tractor for me." Lu Zhisen said with anger.
He fiddled around for a long time just now, but the tractor still didn't respond, so he had to pull himself up to find Lu Che, otherwise he would have to be scolded by Lu Dazhou when he went back. Therefore, seeing Lu Che at this moment is like seeing a savior, and there is no time to care about Jiang Yao.
"Okay." Lu Che didn't say much, but when he was about to go out, Jiang Yao stopped him, "Lu Che, such a person is not worth your help."
Lu Che looked back at her, "The tractor belongs to the production team, not him. I'm helping the production team repair it."
I don't know if it was Jiang Yao's illusion, but she always felt that Lu Che's expression and tone at this time seemed to be coaxing an ignorant child, and she was this child.
"Oh." She replied without saying a word.
When Lu Che went out, Jiang Yao went back to her room. When she was idle and bored, she found the dry goods sent to her by Jiang Zhen to see if she could find a way to get rich.
Every time she saw a piece of dry goods, she wondered if she could make something and sell it. When she saw a big bundle of jelly, she suddenly had an idea.
She immediately took out a pen and paper and began to settle the account. When she listed the various costs, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." She shouted, the door was pushed open the next moment, she looked up and saw Lu Che standing outside the door.
"Is something wrong?" Jiang Yao looked surprised, she couldn't wait to tell him this idea.
Lu Che gave a "um" and said, "It's a man's business to teach a guy who doesn't know what to do. Don't be brave next time."
Jiang Yao was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was talking about Lu Zhisen. In the past, Lawyer Jiang would have thought that this man was a dog and a chauvinist, but now he feels protected.
"I see." Jiang Yao responded obediently, then waved to him, "Come here, I have something to tell you."
"What's up?"
"Sit down first, I'll tell you slowly." Jiang Yao handed the piece of paper she had just written to him, and said, "Isn't there a market in the county in two days? I can see it can be placed at the entrance of the theater. The stall. My brother sent me some jelly last time, and I was thinking about making it into jelly and selling it at the entrance of the theater. "
"Look at my calculation, one catty of jelly grass and three catties of rice can make 80 catties of jelly, and the sugar water needs two catties of white sugar. All the costs add up to about two yuan plus two catties of sugar tickets. One bowl The jelly is about half a catty, we sell it for 8 cents a bowl, and we can make a profit of 11 yuan after we sell it all."
"What do you think? Would you like to sell it with me?" At the end, Jiang Yao's tone couldn't hide her excitement.
Lu Che read her cost calculation carefully, and finally raised his head to look at her, "Will it be too expensive for a bowl of eight cents?"
"Of course not, the people who go to the theater are basically young men and women who are talking about their partner." Jiang Yao said, and unconsciously leaned in front of her and said, "I ask you, if you go to see your partner. Movie, on such a hot day, are you willing to spend eight cents to buy her a bowl of jelly?"
When the words fell, Lu Che's eyes with her suddenly became hot, and Jiang Yao gradually couldn't stand it. Just when she was about to leave, she heard him say, "Don't say a bowl of jelly, I'm willing to give it my life."
"Plop, plop, plop..." Jiang Yao heard her thunderous heartbeat, and at the moment when her heartbeat was about to spin out of control, Lu Qing's voice came from outside.
She woke up like a dream, and the moment she stood up, Lu Qing had already walked to the door of her room.
"You two are here!" Lu Qing was a little surprised.
Jiang Yao hurriedly explained, "I'll discuss with Lu Che about going to the market to set up a stall to sell jelly in two days."
"Oh." Lu Qing didn't suspect him, he walked in and dragged her and said, "I heard that a duck girl arranged by the commune to raise ducks in our team was scolded by a bastard more than a month ago. It seems that you were drugged. That evening."
The author has something to say:
Xiaomi: Hey, hey, pay attention to your eyes, be subtle.
Lu Che: If you are more subtle, you will not be able to have children.
I know everyone is in a hurry, but I think their relationship develops naturally. But don't worry, we're about to smash the paper window!
