His words were met with cheers of joy! Those strong Miao men all had happy smiles on their faces, and at the same time they mustered up the last strength to move forward. For a while, the team's speed accelerated a bit!
It’s not to blame that these Miao men are tired, it’s because they have too many things on them and in the car! Since most of the roads here are mountainous, there is no need for carriages at all, so they all use wheelbarrows to transport goods!
At this time, the trolley was full of goods, which was at least twice as much as the normal load! Therefore, the width of the goods is more than twice that of the wheelbarrow, and the height almost blocks the eyes of the person pushing the wheelbarrow! In other words, the man pushing the cart couldn't see the road under his feet. He relied on his strong arms and familiarity with the road to ensure that the cart didn't tip over!
What’s even more outrageous is that not only is the wheelbarrow filled with things, but the person pushing the wheelbarrow is also covered in packages! At least two are hung on each one, and at most there are five or six! The clothes on their bodies were repeatedly wetted with sweat and then steamed dry, and there were layers of salt flowers on them. It was obvious at first glance how far they had walked!
The only person in the queue who was not pushing a trolley and walking in front was also the person who just spoke, named Zai Jiayin. His mother is Han, and she married a local Bai Miao and gave birth to him, so he is half Han!
Moreover, his father's village is very close to where the Han people live, so he has often traveled between the two places since he was a child, and he speaks Chinese very proficiently! If you didn't look at the clothes he was wearing, you would have thought he was Han just by listening to his words!
Jiayin has been extremely smart and strong since he was a child! You always win when you fight with your friends! So he is very popular among his friends! The most rare thing is that after he grew up to be a teenager, not only was he still strong, but he also acted fairly, so he has become the leader of the young Miao people in several nearby villages! Those young people all believed in him and were willing to believe in him!
Because he often travels to places where Han people gather, he is much more knowledgeable than the Miao people in the mountains! So he found that many good things in the mountains could be sold at high prices in Han people's areas! So he came up with an idea, that is, the price can double or triple from the mountains to the plains. If it is sold farther away, can the price go even higher?
So the young Jiayin packed his dry food, plugged in his Miao knife and set out on the road of adventure. After some hardships, he met the son of a boatman. As a result, the two young people became good friends after meeting!
When the boatman's son heard about Jiayin's dream, he discussed with his father to pay for the mountain goods Jiayin brought and then sell them far away! Moreover, they have their own boat and can go down the Wujiang River! As long as it enters the Yangtze River, everything on the boat can be sold at a good price!
After the discussion, Jiayin immediately rushed back to the village. After being severely beaten by his father, he took his friends up the mountain to collect various mountain products, then dried them and sent them to Donglai Town.
At that time, everyone in the village was not optimistic about Jiayin's idea and thought that he would be completely deceived by the cunning Han people! But at that time, the patriarch made the final decision: "Let the children go make trouble! If it works out, there will be another way to make money in the village! If it doesn't work out, the children will have gained some knowledge! Anyway, they are all things from the mountains. You can find it with a little effort, it’s not worth much! As long as you keep the children alive, you can do anything!”
So Jiayin and his friends walked the mountain road for many days and arrived at Donglai Town. But although the boatman and his son tried their best to raise money, it was not enough to buy all the goods! However, the generous Cain entrusted all the goods to his friend and said that he would calculate the money when he came back.
So after the boat left, they waited here in Donglai Town for a long time. Just when Cayin thought he had been fooled, the boatman and his son came back! Not only did they come back, they also brought a large amount of salt, cloth, medicinal materials and other goods! Now it’s money that Jiayin owes the boatman and his son!
And so the business relationship that developed out of the friendship of the two young men was established! This business lasted seven or eight years, and Jiayin also transformed from a thin boy into a strong young man! The boatman's small wooden boat was also replaced by a larger sailboat! It seems that he is still making more profits than adding sound!
But Jiayin is not jealous, because he earned it through his own ability! And my good brother
I heard that the goods are twice as expensive as others, and the things delivered are cheaper than others! So Jiayin's family soon became the richest family in the village! Their cottage has also become the richest among the dozen or so cottages in the surrounding area!
Today Jiayin once again brought this small "camel caravan" into Donglai Town. Everyone in the town was familiar with him and greeted them when they came into town. They also responded enthusiastically to everyone.
They soon came to a small courtyard. Hearing the bustle of people outside the yard, the owner had already walked out. You can tell by looking at the host's headscarf that their family is also Miao.
I just heard this man say with a smile: "I knew you were coming as soon as I heard the sound! Push the car inside quickly! I calculated that you will arrive in the next few days, so I specially prepared good wine!"
Regardless of the heavy things he was carrying, Cai Yin gave him a warm hug first, and then directed the brothers behind him to push the cart in. Soon the carts filled up the yard, and even occupied the yards of the two houses next door before they were completely put down.
Only then did Jiayin put down all his backpacks and baggage with the help of his master, then formally gave him a hug and said, "Uncle Badan, I'm going to trouble you again this time!"
Badan smiled and said, "No trouble, no trouble! Your aunt went out to buy things and will be back soon. When she comes back, let her cook for you! You must be hungry!"
At this time, other celebrities in the town came over one after another, and everyone who saw Jiayin hugged him enthusiastically! Because of the existence of Jiayin, some of the mountain products they collect can also be sold at high prices! So when they came over, everyone was carrying large and small packages and baskets, which contained the goods they had accumulated in their daily lives!
So Jiayin accepted it one by one at the previous price. When the transaction was completed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief! At this time, the women from each family gathered at Badain's house with ingredients, chatting and laughing and started cooking! Tonight is destined to be a lively carnival night!
