Chapter 70 Chapter 69

Chapter 70 69 price increase, go to Yanjing

In a restaurant in the city.

Zheng Lian sat at the dining table and looked at Wang Yuan for about ten seconds:

"Xiaoyuan, do you really have a way to get train leather? What kind of way? Tell me."

"Uncle Zheng, you look down on people. Who doesn't know a few powerful relatives? You don't think I'm just an out-and-out little farmer, do you?" Wang Yuan said with a smile.

"Uh, no, how is that possible? Your conversation and way of doing things are different from many farmers."

What Zheng Lian actually wants to say is - since you have such a rich background, why do you still need to make money by delivering game to Li Hang's family?

However, he quickly rejected his idea, because many people do have backgrounds but may not be able to get the credit, because some big shots don't bother to help their relatives through the back door.

Because if you count them in detail, including all seven aunts and eight aunts, a big shot may have thousands of relatives, and it would be exhausting to help them all.

Zheng Lian felt that this was the case with Wang Yuan.

really.

Wang Yuan hesitated and said: "It's not certain whether it will work or not. Let's meet again tomorrow and I will tell you the result then."

"Okay, see you later."

After leaving the restaurant, Wang Yuan first went to the small courtyard at the back to find Uncle Wei Guo. He had four dishes and one soup with wine and meat. Uncle Wei drank it right away.

He felt that he was an honest farmer, but after entering the city, he actually asked city people to serve him wine and food without paying a penny, which was a big deal!

Of course, he knew that all of this was for Wang Yuan's sake, and he couldn't help but re-recognize the latter. This rural kid who had grown up watching him was so powerful!?

On the way back, Uncle Wei kept looking at Wang Yuan.

Wang Yuan rode his bicycle to the right of the bullock cart and soon left the city.

"Uncle Wei Guo, why do you always look at me? Is there dust on my face?"

"No, no, I have always believed that you can do it since you were a child! The little ones are all pointed upward, so it's really not bad! You can go to school, and it's not bad to do things by yourself!"

"Hahaha~ Uncle Wei Guo, I'm embarrassed that you praised me so much. I was just messing around."

"Your uncle and I are telling the truth. My knives are far behind yours. If you have the opportunity in the future, please take my knives with you, okay?"

"Okay, it must be done!"

One was driving a bullock cart and the other was riding a bicycle, and both of them laughed instantly.

Back at the entrance of the village, Wang Yuan gave Liu Weiguo 3 yuan. He took a ride with a man and an ox cart, so he couldn't use it in vain.

Liu Weiguo kept saying it was too much, but finally accepted it under Wang Yuan's insistence, with a cheerful smile on his face.

Naturally, he wanted money. His life was so poor, so how could he really think it was too much?

When she got home, the little girl clung to Wang Yuan, shouting "Second brother, second brother", and took charge of taking care of the children when her parents were busy.

My mother was sitting on the fire bed making cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles. The soles were too hard to stick in, so she used a thimble to push them in and used small pliers to pull them out.

Occasionally, I would also use a needle to score my hair a few times.

"Xiao Yuan, how much will it cost to use Liu Wei's country's ox cart?"

Wang Yuan held the little girl and sat on the edge of the kang, making the little girl giggle: "I gave you three yuan."

"How many!?"

Mom immediately put down her sewing.

The fat white cat was lying on her lap with his paws in his hands. He was instantly awakened by her voice. He lay down and curled up in a circle and continued to sleep. The sound of purring could be heard.

"You're a kid who just can't get by. You spend money lavishly. Besides, if you give me 3 yuan this time, how much will the employer give you next time? If you give less, people will scold you, you know, right?"

"I understand."

Wang Yuan smiled and said, of course he knows the principle of promoting rice and fighting against rice, but he also wants to help the villagers as much as he can.

Moreover, if you give me an extra dollar, the other person will say good things to you more. Then the living environment of grandparents, parents, uncles, aunts, etc. will be better.

In the evening, his cousin Wang Hu came to call him for dinner. It turned out that his third uncle had trapped two rabbits on the mountain. He even called Wang Yuan's parents and the little girl.

But the parents didn't go, only Wang Yuan and the little girl passed by, and he brought over a bowl of meat.

Sitting cross-legged at the kang table, drinking wine, eating vegetables, and chatting, snowflakes are falling outside and the cold wind is whistling; the warmth and joy inside the house make the cold and boring season less difficult in an instant.

After eating very late, Wang Yuan went home with the little girl in his arms. The little girl was yawning and feeling sleepy in Wang Yuan's arms.

After returning home, my parents were still awake.

Wang Yuan sat on the edge of the kang, teasing three little local dogs with his feet and said:

"Mom and dad, let me tell you something. My friends from the city want to take me to Yanjing to have some fun and gain some knowledge."

"What? Going to Yanjing?" My mother frowned instantly: "It's the Chinese New Year, why are you running around? Someone will sell you on the way."

"How is that possible? Even though I'm such a big living person, I'm not a fool."

"You kid just don't know the danger. What a mess it is now."

In the end, the old man smoked a dry cigarette and said, "It's okay to go there. I'll gain some experience and see the outside world."

My mother muttered: "What should I do if someone catches me? Isn't it better to stay at home?"

The old man frowned: "What's good? A friend asked him to go to Yanjing together, and he said - I won't go, I'm afraid of being betrayed. Why don't you make me laugh to death? You can't do it so embarrassingly.

thing."

My mother suddenly became sulky and sat aside without talking.

The next day.

After breakfast, Wang Yuan rushed to the city and saw an anxious Zheng Lian in the restaurant. The latter had been cheated out of a lot of money when he bought wood, and he urgently needed to make some more money.

Of course, he could also go back to Yanjing directly, but he was very unconvinced by the "failure to the Northeast" and felt that he had no face to go back.

"Uncle Zheng!"

"Xiaoyuan, how are you?" Zheng Lian came over anxiously, his eyes bloodshot, obviously he didn't sleep well last night.

"It's done!"

"Okay, okay! Haha, that's great! You're awesome, Xiao Yuan!" Zheng Lian patted Wang Yuan on the shoulder and laughed. He estimated that there was only a 30% chance that this would happen, but he didn't expect that it would actually happen.

"Ahem, but the unit price needs to be raised." Wang Yuan said Hao Ran. The price increase is more realistic. After all, according to Zheng Lian's idea, Wang Yuan should have paid a lot.

Finally, it was agreed that the price per kilogram would be increased by 5 cents.

Don’t underestimate this 5 cents. Multiplied by more than 30,000 kilograms, that’s more than 1,500 yuan! Quite a lot!

After another day of preparation, Wang Yuan and Zheng Lian got on the train to Yanjing, along with Li Hang and his cousin "Niu Yuanyuan".

Besides, besides—

The old green leather train set off, crawling forward little by little like an old turtle.

The dilapidated carriage was filled with a musty smell, the smell of feet and sweat, and it was noisy. Passengers wearing cotton-padded jackets came and went, making it very crowded.

Wang Yuan and the four of them sat opposite each other. He and Niu Yuanyuan sat on the south side, and Li Hang and Zheng Lian sat on the north side.

Zheng Lian didn't sleep well last night, so he leaned on his seat and fell asleep slowly. Li Hang was admiring the scenery outside the window, and Niu Yuanyuan was chatting with Wang Yuan in a low voice.

"Are there a lot of flying dragons in the countryside? I heard that flying dragon meat is super delicious, but it's a pity that I have never eaten it."

"Can one shot kill a wild boar?"



"Is the tiger really that powerful? You can kill him with just one shot."

This girl seemed to be very interested in hunting. She kept chattering to Wang Yuan in a low voice, and the latter patiently explained to her.

Niu Yuanyuan has been pampered since childhood, Xiaojiabiyu is innocent, has good looks and a good figure, and it seems good to have a beautiful woman to chat with all the time.

But slowly Wang Yuan came back to his senses and realized that this girl seemed to have a good impression of him.

In order not to embarrass his hometown in Yanjing, he specially borrowed Mengzi's new cotton-padded jacket. The clothes fit him very well and he looked much more handsome.

Coupled with the self-confidence between his eyebrows and his eyes, his speech is not babbling or full of swear words, but also well-founded and strict, which is indeed very attractive to little girls.

However, Wang Yuan knew that he had a fiancée, so he deliberately ended the topic and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

Niu Yuanyuan was furious instantly. She, a big girl, couldn't do anything to Wang Yuan, so she went straight to trouble Li Hang.

"Brother Hangzi, what delicious food did you bring in your bag? Take it out and eat it."
