Xiaowu's daughter-in-law was cooking in the evening, and Daliang's daughter-in-law was invited to help. This was a gathering of the younger generation, and the elderly rarely participated in it.
When they sat down, Yang Dongxu refused and sat at the main seat. After all, they were all of the same generation and there was no age difference between them, so it was natural for him to sit at the main seat when eating at Xiao Wu's house.
Then he sat in the second seat on the east side, and Da Liang sat below him. Xiaoliang and Xiaotao, who were not married, could only sit in the seats on the west side and where they received food on the south side.
The general at the table was the youngest, so he had a smile on his face, shouting "Brother, where is the wine bottle?" and hugged him to prepare to be the wine commander tonight.
Rice wine needs to be drunk warm to have the best flavor. Xiao Wu didn’t have any utensils to warm wine at home, so Yang Dongxu brought a small stove over. This is a tool used by Mr. Xuan, who has a relatively elegant accent, to sit in a rocking chair and make tea when he has nothing to do occasionally, listening to operas sung on the radio.
Now that he is here to warm the rice wine, I don’t know if the old man will hit him when he smells the smell of rice wine in his tea-making utensils and starts to live a little romantic life again.
The man was eating while the woman was cooking. The child was playing nearby, but Xiao Wu drove him to the kitchen and told him to go find his mother. After the dishes were ready, the men drank and chatted at the wine table, while the two women took their children to eat in the kitchen, and then went to the bedroom on the second floor to watch TV.
In rural areas, if there are many guests, it is common for women and children not to come to the table. At this time, no one talks about women's rights or discrimination, it's just that everyone is used to the rules passed down by the older generation.
"Xu Zi, do you think you can make money by receiving the goods?" We are all adults, and naturally we won't talk about the things we did when we were young at the wine table. That's because after three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, we feel a little dizzy and feel like we're trying to persuade each other to drink. , or laughing and cursing to reveal short-term things during the guessing game.
When we didn’t drink too much, we all talked about business.
"What kind of goods are you receiving?" Yang Dongxu picked up a peanut and put it in his mouth.
"It's convenient to take food or some local specialties from the countryside to the city. We have roads here and it's convenient. I think other people make a lot of money." Xiao Wu said.
"They should all be good, and they can make hard money. Our village has some respect in the ten miles and eight towns. As long as you collect grain at a fair price, you can do business. Is there a market for rural local products? Where are you going to sell them?"
"I'm going to deliver souvenirs to the supermarket. I think those things that are not valuable in our countryside, such as spring corn, are very expensive in supermarkets in the city." Daliang continued.
Obviously he should have discussed this matter with Xiao Wu before, after all, both of them now sell large trucks to travel long distances all year round. If a business in the same village makes money, it is easy for the whole village to do it.
However, compared to other villages where jealous brothers are jealous of each other, the atmosphere here in Yangjia Village is much better. Of course, the reason why the atmosphere is good is that business is easy to do now. You can get goods if you have a car. Even if there are more cars tied together, it is easier to receive business. When everyone makes money, the atmosphere will be much better.
"It's a good way. If you do this business, I know the people in the supermarket and I can say hello to you. As long as the goods are good, they will take it over.
However, our farm products are all seasonal, if you want to keep the business going for a long time. You can try to go south to contact bananas, and go north to contact other fruits. Or maybe aquatic products and seafood, so that there are goods available every season, and the cooperation with supermarkets can be more stable. Yang Dongxu said.
"This is a good idea." Xiao Wu and Daliang both nodded.
The best thing to do business is to do it for a long time. If we only sell some agricultural products in Chengwang City, the seasonality is indeed too strong. It is estimated that the business will only be one or two months per year. But if we look at the whole country, that year You can stay busy in all seasons.
"Be careful when running long distances. The roads are not repaired very much now. The road conditions are so bad that it is easy to encounter some unscrupulous people who block the road and rob. No longer keep your temper on your own territory." Yang Dongxu reminded.
Even in the era of surveillance everywhere in later generations, large trucks running long distances often had the gas in their mailboxes drained. Nowadays, the long-distance transportation environment can be said to be even wilder. Fights are commonplace, and many people die all year round. It is considered a peaceful year for everyone.
Can you imagine a group of people stopping you and brazenly grabbing goods? Many buses and coaches even force passengers to make purchases on the way, which is worse than some tour guides.
Why does everyone want to use train transportation? Safety plays a big role. After all, even the most daring and unscrupulous people don’t have the guts to rob a train, and there are basically no accidents when transporting by train. As long as the two ends are well connected, there will rarely be any problems.
"Understood, even if we go to other places to buy goods, we will first take the old road we used to run to see if there is any business. We will definitely not run around in the beginning." Xiao Wu said with a smile.
It's obviously not enough to run a transportation business if you're not very courageous. In addition to being very courageous, you also need to be able to get into trouble. If time allows, make a few more friends when traveling to a place. This way, traveling along the same route for a long time will not only save you worry but also make it safer.
People like Xiaowu are very suitable for running long distances. They are courageous enough, don't panic when encountering problems, are not afraid to actually take action, and can also drink and make friends. If you have the chance, you can find a sales job and be a good person.
But I don't know if the people in the same village are a little embarrassed, even though they all know that he is doing business outside. But few people asked him what he did, or asked him to introduce him to work.
It's strange for everyone to ask Yang Dongxu about this matter even if he opens his mouth to borrow money to buy a car.
As for why this phenomenon occurs, it is actually because college students are now very popular in rural areas or across the country. Therefore, in the perception of Xiao Wu or the whole village, the jobs of college students are high-end. Yang Dongxu needs to recruit people for business, so why should he start with a high school degree? If they didn't finish junior high school, they probably wouldn't be able to do that kind of work.
However, this single finger refers to a boy. After all, Yang Dongxu is a boy, so everyone thinks so. Relatively speaking, some people on the girl side have spoken.
The main reason is that both the older sister Hongying and the younger sister Dandan went to Yanjing to open clothing stores. Therefore, the clothing business is relatively familiar, and clothing factories are very suitable for girls. So there are currently several girls in the village working in Huaxiu.
For Yang Dongxu, a fellow villager, he said hello and asked someone to take care of him, but it was just a simple care. The master can teach more about work. As long as he has the ability, he will have more opportunities for promotion than others. However, all other aspects are treated equally. Even people in the same village maintain a certain degree of propriety in how they behave and do things, which is good for others and themselves.
We talked about business for a while, then drank and ate. The more wine we drank, the wider the conversation became. The joke that later generations said on the Internet: "Drink a little more, and you will be the one in Yanjing and Tiananmen Square" is actually very common at the wine table.
For example, after a few people drank and the taste became better and better, they started talking about the trivial things they did when they were young, and then talked about the development of Yangjia Village, then the development of Chengwang City, and then how to plan the province's economy and how to move forward the national economy. Walk.
Then he wanted to fight passionately, saying how accurate he was with a slingshot when he was a child. If he picked up a gun, he would definitely be a sharpshooter. Then he performed various charges and made meritorious deeds and finally became a general... Drinking a little more would no longer be a good thing. What happened to Jingcheng Menlouzi is about to leave the earth and rush into the universe.
Did you drink too much? It's a bit much, it makes me feel a little unsteady when I walk.
Are you drunk? No, I haven't vomited yet. Although my head is a little dizzy, my consciousness is still clear. What's drunk without going crazy?
...
There is a reason why good wine is expensive, for example, if you don’t have a headache when you wake up the next day. Yang Dongxu didn't know whether all good wines had this characteristic. Anyway, after drinking rice wine mixed with Wuliangye, he woke up early the next morning and his head was a little dazed, but it didn't hurt.
After washing my face with cold water, I felt energetic, although my head was still a little dizzy. However, after eating the millet porridge and eating two big steamed buns while eating vegetables, I basically felt completely refreshed.
"Don't run around today and go to the pig farm to help. It's the end of the year and the pig farm needs to sell a batch of big pigs to make pens for the little piglets. You can come over and settle the accounts." Still eating. Yang's mother arranged the work.
"I know." Yang Dongxu responded.
"Then I'll help too, mom." Zhou Ya said.
"You don't have to. You stay with Hongying at home to see if our family has anything ready. By the way, your dad won't listen to me. If you try to persuade him again, what's wrong with us living together as a family? It's not like that. It’s weird to live alone.” Yang’s mother said.
"If it stops for a while, it's okay to live at home. Asahi and I want me to stay in the village for retirement, so it's good to build a separate house. Let him and the old man live together first, and wait for the new After the house is built, let the two of them move to the new house." Zhou Ya knew her father's temper, so she had no choice but to explain and keep winking at Yang Dongxu.
"Let's build another house. Anyway, the wasteland in front of the pig farm is still empty. Let's build three large tile-roofed houses on the roadside and create a small courtyard. My father-in-law and Mr. Xuan are both restless people at first.
Open a small vegetable garden for them behind the house, and send them some of what they usually have to eat. If the fire is on, they will eat by themselves. If the fire is not on, they will be called home to eat. By the way, I’m going to call Auntie Dazzling Eyes over for help after the new year. "
"It's not like there's no one at home. Why did you ask Sister Hua to come over? How can you ask Sister Cui to guard a yard as big as Yanjing alone?" Yang Ma frowned.
"Don't worry if someone is watching you in the yard in Yanjing. Aunt Hua is here mainly to help with cooking and cleaning the house. There is nothing during the off-season. When the farming is busy, you have to take care of the pig farm and the fields for you and me. My dad can't even eat well.
Just ask Aunt Hua to come over and help you cook. Well... Aunt Hua also knows the tastes of Mr. Xuan and my father-in-law. When the time comes, she will be cooking for the whole family, and it will be convenient for the old man. If it's convenient, you can call your grandparents. "
"What are you calling them for?" Yang's mother rolled her eyelids.
Although the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Yang family has been relatively harmonious over the years, there are always bumps and bruises. So it's just a general family harmony. As for the eternal enemies of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, if they want to get along completely harmoniously and harmoniously, they probably won't be able to think about it with Yang Ma and Grandma Yang Dongxu in this life.
