Chen Lishu smiled: "No, we have worked with this person before. He is the manager of the store. If it is not safe, I will definitely not be able to do it."
Wu Chunmei nodded after hearing what she said: "Okay, when it gets dark after dinner, I'll ask your dad to get some fabrics."
"What do you want me to get?" The two were talking and Chen Mantun pushed the door in from the outside. He was also very happy to see Chen Lishu back: "Lishu is back."
Wu Chunmei saw him coming in and asked, "Have you finished delivering the food?"
"I've finished the delivery and completed this task. I'm finally busy this year. Now let's wait for the distribution of food."
As he spoke, Chen Mandun patted the dust on his body, casually took off his hat and put it on the cabinet. After sitting down by the kang, he asked again: "What do you want me to get?"
"Lishu got some fabric back from the provincial capital." Wu Chunmei then roughly repeated to Chen Mantun what Chen Lishu said to her.
Chen Manyun nodded: "Okay, I'll go there when it gets dark."
"Dad, how was the team's harvest this year?" Chen Lishu asked as she thought of something.
Seeing her asking about the harvest, Chen Mantun put on a smile on his honest face: "This year is good. After paying the public grain, I guess each family should be able to get thirty or fifty kilograms more grain than last year."
Chen Lishu also smiled when she heard what he said: "Dad, after the grain distribution this time, let's start up the business of harvesting grain last year."
I made more than 200 yuan in just a few days before last year. Now that there are still more than two months until the Chinese New Year, I will definitely make a lot of money.
When she heard that she was going to resell food, her head suddenly turned into a rattle, and she waved her hands repeatedly: "Have you forgotten that you milked them last year? How dare you have such thoughts?"
Chen Lishu persuaded: "Dad, look at who is spending a good life just staring at other people's houses 24 hours a day? Besides, we are not collecting in our brigade, we just need to go further. Now I have rented a house in the town."
, Dad, after you collect the grain, you don’t have to go home and send it directly to me, and no one will be aware of it.”
She has a lot more money in her hands now than last year. She can collect more food and naturally earn more money.
As a result, Chen Lishu talked earnestly for a long time, but Chen Mantun was still unmoved, and even advised Chen Lishu in turn: "My daughter, life is very good now, and the house has been built. As long as your mother and I stay together safely."
If you go to work, you can get a lot of food at home, so why bother worrying about yourself? You must have made a lot of money by making clothes. Listen to dad, you can eat and drink enough as a girl. You and my uncle will have a baby as soon as possible.
That’s the serious thing.”
Chen Lishu's enthusiasm dropped a lot when she heard his words, but she still wanted to try her best to persuade: "Dad, there are six mouths waiting for us at home. How can we use the little food you and my mother shared in the team?
Besides, the younger sisters have to go to school when they grow up, so the family shouldn’t have much money now, right?”
Before Chen Mandun could speak, Wu Chunmei said from the side: "Can't I still take over work from you? I just need to make a small amount. Don't let your father be in danger. If your grandma finds out, she will cause trouble."
But what should we do? Let’s talk about Liyuan and the others going to school. If you can, go to school first. If you really can’t afford it, then you can only come down and work.”
Wu Chunmei has always believed that it is useless for a girl to read more books. She can find a good husband and gain some energy, as long as she does not behave like her, she will definitely live a good life.
"Okay, parents, I'll go back first." The cow couldn't be held down if it didn't want to eat grass. Although she was a little disappointed, Chen Lishu didn't say anything, got up and left.
When Chen Lishu returned to the Gu family, Gu Shoufu and Gu Xingguo also came back, and they all gathered around the big room to talk.
"Pigs don't want to grow meat when it's cold. It's a waste of food to drag them around. I think it's better to kill them early." Gu Shoufu sat by the kang and said to his sons.
"I agree with what Dad said." Gu Xingguo said.
Gu Xingmin and Gu Xingye also had no objections.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Gu Shoufu turned his head and looked at Chen Lishu who came in behind: "The third daughter-in-law is more familiar with the town. Next time you go to the town and ask about it, we will kill the pig as soon as possible if there is any profit."
Chen Lishu smiled and nodded: "Okay, Dad, I'll go find out when I get back soon."
Hearing that she was leaving soon, Li Xiulan frowned: "It's almost time to make dinner at this time, why don't we stay one night and go back to town tomorrow."
Chen Lishu smiled and shook her head: "I can ride a bicycle very fast. Besides, you have to keep your promise when you have already promised someone. It would not be good if the goods are not completed and the goods are not delivered by the time."
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Li Xiulan got off the kang and went to the outer warehouse to take out a cloth bag full of patches and handed it back to Chen Lishu: "Your sister-in-law and I took the time to pick it up in the mountains. They all said that eating this stuff will strengthen your brain. I see you
I always read and do some work, so I can go back and cook it all with Xingping as a snack."
Chen Lishu took the bag and opened it and found that in addition to chestnuts and melon seeds, there were many walnuts inside. She was immediately happy: "Thank you, Mom."
Chen Lishu then went back to her house to find two pieces of thick clothes and put them in her bag. She came out to talk to her family before riding her bicycle back to town.
It was already getting dark when they arrived in town. Chen Lishu glanced at the time and it was already past five o'clock. Gu Xingping must have finished her meal by now, so she didn't rush back and rode directly to the state-owned hotel to find Liu Yong.
"What brought you here, girl?" Liu Yong looked at her and joked with a smile, "If you come here a little later, I will get off work."
Chen Lishu smiled: "It seems that I came at the right time."
As she spoke, she glanced around the entire dining room. Only a young girl was cleaning not far away. Then she lowered her voice and said, "I came here this time to ask Brother Liu if you accept pork."
When Liu Yong heard that she was talking about pork, his eyes immediately lit up: "I knew that there must be good things coming to me, sister. Tell me, how much do you want to sell it for a pound?"
Chen Lishu smiled: "Brother Liu, how much do you want to buy it for?"
Liu Yong narrowed his eyes: "Sister, how many do you have?"
"About a hundred pounds." Because she was not sure how much meat she would keep at home, Chen Lishu only reported a conservative number.
Liu Yong's heart beat twice quickly, purely because he was so excited: "How about one dollar?"
Chen Lishu smiled and shook her head: "Brother Liu, you are not serious, the black market is now selling for 1.5 yuan." Although she has not been to the black market recently, she knows the previous price, which was about 1.23 yuan. Thinking about it this year, she should go there again.
It was a bit higher, so I just quoted a dollar and a half.
Liu Yong frowned when he heard her say one dollar and a half: "One dollar and a half is just a rare phenomenon. Besides, they all bought less. Only I, Fatty Liu, can eat so much at once. For the sake of other unnecessary trouble, sister, you are trying too."
It’s a worry-free thing, I didn’t dodge it at all for one dollar and three, what do you think, girl?”
