There is money in his pocket and he is not panicking. Zhang San calculates how many times he sells it and he can pay off the family's debt. Then he must thank the drugstore owner.
…
"Sanlang, thanks to you this time, I finally have the money to repair Dalang's house." Muramasa will come to Zhang San's house whenever he has nothing to do, hoping that Zhang San will make another batch of candies to sell.
"Muramasa, please drink some water first. The new wheat was just cultivated today and it's not time yet. I'll let my little sister inform you when it's done." Zhang San said politely.
Since there are few cattle in Datang, milk is even more difficult to obtain. There is no refrigerator, so even if fresh milk is obtained, it cannot be stored.
Counting on the cows in Muramasa's family, we can't make it on a large scale even if we are exhausted. Therefore, this toffee can only be used as a seasonal product, and most of it still relies on maltose.
"Muramasa, I have something I want to discuss with you in advance."
Now Muramasa was in awe of Zhang San. When he heard what Zhang San had to say, he sat up straight and asked, "What's going on with Saburo?"
"It's like this. I heard you say the other day that there are shops for us to book in advance. I wonder if we should find a few reliable shops in the county and let them become our distributors?" Zhang San said.
"Distributor? What do you mean?"
"This distributor is our fixed sales point in the county. We directly supply them with goods and let them sell them."
Hearing what Zhang San said, Muramasa was worried that Zhang San would not be able to use him in the future, so he pretended to be pitiful, "If you do this, Saburo, you won't leave me and go it alone in the future, right? You don't know that I've been running all the time for this business these days.
Broken legs."
"Haha, Muramasa, just put your heart into your stomach. I, Zhang San, am not an ungrateful person. You take such good care of my family, how could I forget you." Zhang San said sincerely.
Seeing that Muramasa was still worried, Zhang San had to continue to explain: "Muramasa, you may not know much about this distributor. Let me analyze it for you. You can only go back and forth to the county once after all your hard work.
, now is a new product on the market, so it sells quickly, but as we sell it for a long time, the sales volume may drop, so not only is it hard and troublesome for you to run back and forth, but the money you make is also limited. "
When Muramasa heard that this seemed to be the case, he continued to listen to Zhang San.
"After we find a few dealers, you will be responsible for going to the county regularly to deliver goods to these shops and let them sell on their behalf. Although the profits will be smaller than now, you will also be able to sell more
, in fact, we still make more money in the end, and it’s easier for you, right?”
"Sanlang, how do you get melon seeds in your head? You can think of such a good method. This method sounds wonderful, but you can't just kill the donkey when the time comes!" Muramasa thought to Zhang San.
I was very surprised by the distributor's approach, but I still wasn't reassured.
Seeing that Muramasa was still worried, Zhang San said a lot of reassuring words and hinted to Muramasa that these were just drizzle, and there would be more new things coming out in the future, all of which would borrow Muramasa's power.
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Muramasa went home happily. He praised Zhang San repeatedly, knowing that it was good to remember the old man, and repeatedly told Zhang San not to forget him if he had any good deeds.
After seeing off Muramasa, Zhang San sat in the yard, sprayed his injured leg with Yunnan Baiyao, and carefully put the medicine into the first aid box. This was the only bottle in the world, and Zhang San treasured it.
As soon as Zhang San put away the first aid kit, the courtyard door was kicked open.
"Is there anyone at home here to ask for a bill?"
Zhang San raised his eyes and saw standing at the entrance of the courtyard a big man with a big body, a round waist, a sinewy face, and as black as coal, accompanied by two very wretched-looking people.
"Who are you? You have to pay for the damage to my door." Zhang San came to the courtyard with a cane and was very angry when he saw that the small door of the fence was kicked open by a big man.
Seeing the limping Zhang San, the big man thought that he was really injured, and now he felt more relieved.
"Boy, your master owes me a lot of money. Today, Mr. Dog, I am here to collect the debt. Go and get the money. Otherwise..." the big man said viciously, and broke a wooden stick in his hand. He threatened.
The meaning is self-evident.
Zhang San already knew that his family owed money to the drug store, and these people in front of him looked like gangsters. As a good young man who grew up under the red flag, how could Zhang San be intimidated by a few bullies?
"Why didn't I know that I owed you money? Get out of here or I'll sue you for breaking into a house!"
"Hey, boy, you are so stubborn. Don't you know my dog master?" A tall, thin and wretched man next to the big man said.
"What are you, Mr. Dog, Mr. Pig? You haven't heard of it, get out of here." Of course Zhang San has never heard of it. Even if he has, he won't flinch. He must deal with these people more ruthlessly than they do, otherwise he will have to wait in the future.
Be bullied to death.
"Boy, sir, my patience is limited. Pay back the money quickly, or I'll demolish your shabby house." The big man, known as Mr. Dog, said angrily when he saw Zhang San scolding him.
"Stop! What are you doing?" At this moment, the little girl who was digging wild vegetables outside suddenly ran in from the outside, saw Zhang San surrounded by three people, and immediately shouted out.
Originally, Zhang San was not afraid of those scoundrels on his own, but now the little girl suddenly came back, which made Zhang San feel nervous.
"Oh, this little lady looks so pretty!" Mr. Gou suddenly became lustful when he saw the pretty girl. He touched his mouth and said lewdly.
"Master Gou, you...what are you going to do?" The little girl obviously knew that this ruffian was no longer as ferocious as before, and she was very panicked.
Zhang San pulled the little sister behind him and glared at the three of them: "Be honest, if anyone dares to bully my little sister, I swear that he will die without a burial place!"
"Just you? A cripple?"
Looking at the few gangsters who didn't take it seriously, they still approached and said obscene words, "Either you pay back the money, or you use this little lady to offset the debt, you choose one!"
When he came, he found out that Muramasa had made a lot of money selling milk candies for this boy named Zhang San in the county town. Naturally, he did not dare to make any decisions about Muramasa, but this lame boy could still be bullied.
"We don't owe you money!" The little girl showed her head behind Zhang San. Although she was scared, she still did not forget to argue her case.
"This is not your decision! What? You kid, you even risked the safety of your own sister for a few stinky money? I heard that you made a lot of money selling milk candies, but you still care about this little money?"
The two losers next to him were also helping and threatening.
Zhang San already understood at this time that the news about his money must have leaked out, making some cats and dogs become greedy.
I had been very careful and let Muramasa take care of it, but I didn't expect that it still attracted some people's attention.
Seeing that Zhang San refused to take the hard one, the dog owner also lost his patience. He waved his hands and asked the two losers to come forward and prepare for the hard one. He caught the girl first because he was not afraid that Zhang San would not give him the money.
Seeing the gangsters rushing towards her, the little girl backed away in fear.
Zhang San held a cane in his hand and stared at the rushing gangster with red eyes.
As a doctor before, he often studied human skeletons when he was in school to learn about the weaknesses of the human body.
Seeing the two grinning gangsters rushing up, Zhang San got angry, waved his crutch, and taking advantage of the careless moment of the two people in front of him, he hit one of them at the knee joint, and the person immediately fell down holding his leg.
Suddenly, he saw his accomplice beside him rolling on the ground holding his knees in pain, and another gangster hesitated for a moment when he extended his hand to the little girl.
Zhang San endured the pain in his leg and hit the crutch on the outstretched wrist of the ruffian with a wave of his hand.
"Ah" followed by a painful cry, another gangster held his injured arm with his other hand and screamed, breaking out in cold sweat from the pain.
Master Gou was shocked and angry when he saw his two men instantly losing their fighting ability, so he prepared to take action himself.
"What are you doing? You dare to come to our village, Gou Sheng?" At this critical moment, the village leader who heard the noise called the villagers and rushed to Zhang San's home with sticks.
Seeing so many people coming all at once, Mr. Gou secretly cried out that he was unlucky. Knowing that there was no way he could succeed today, he picked up the man who was lying on the ground and led the other man to retreat sideways from the villagers.
After walking out of the door, Master Gou said harsh words to Zhang San: "Boy, we are not done yet."
Seeing that the impatient villager had already raised the broom, he picked up the injured man and ran away.
