After a full night of sleep, Xu Ling woke up and continued to cultivate land, muttering to himself.
"If I had known that there would be endless land to cultivate in this life, I would have studied engineering and specialized in farming machines in my previous life."
He has been working day and night during this period and has cultivated eight acres of land.
Eight acres of land only occupies a corner of such a large space, which sounds quite small, but Gu Litian's family still has six and a half acres of land that both father and son are busy with. This shows how hard Xu Ling worked.
When he was tired, he would drink space spring water and eat dry food made for him by Gu Tao.
At dawn, Xu Ling loaded the vegetables into the car and pushed them into the city to Deyuelou. It looked like it was only eight or nine o'clock in the morning. Xu Ling planned to go home today. It was still early to take the boat, so Then he pushed a cart of cabbage and ran to the east city gate farther away to sell it.
Since it wasn't sold to another restaurant, Wang Shuanbao wouldn't be able to say anything even if he was caught.
It's a pity that such good cabbage is only sold to restaurants. As the New Year is approaching, the weather has cooled down, and the price of vegetables in the city has also increased. However, the price of Xu Ling's cabbage has not increased, and it is still nine cents per catty.
As soon as it was put on the market, the people went crazy and wanted ten and twenty pounds.
Within half an hour, Xu Ling's cart of vegetables was sold out. Some women who had not bought any vegetables were carrying baskets and asked anxiously: "Why are they sold out when I just went home to get a basket? Are you coming tomorrow?"
Xu Ling waved his hand sheepishly, "No, I'll go home tomorrow, next time!"
Everyone sighed and dispersed. Only the persistent woman caught up and insisted on asking Xu Ling when he would come again.
"There are many people in my family, and I need a lot of food. If that doesn't work, tell me which village you live in, and I'll ask my man to buy it from your house without you having to carry it."
Xu Ling couldn't laugh or cry, "My family lives far away."
"How far can it be?" the woman said anxiously. The farmers who come to the town to sell vegetables are not far away from the nearby villages outside the city.
Xu Ling'ao couldn't help but asked her where she lived and promised to send her to her home later. The woman told him and then left happily.
Before leaving, I didn't forget to tell Xu Ling, "I have a lot of people in my family. If you still have more, give me more. I won't waste your money."
Xu Ling ate a hot donkey blood noodle in the town, and then went out of the city to load a hundred catties of cabbage and transport it to the place the woman said.
When he went there, he discovered that the woman had really not lied to him. She actually had an escort agency in her home. There were two stone lions at the door, and a plaque at the door read "Xiang Family Martial Arts School." There was a martial arts studio in the front and an escort agency in the back.
Xu Ling pulled a cart of cabbage and knocked on the back door. The woman was explaining things to the servant at home. Seeing Xu Ling coming, she quickly asked him to bring the cabbage in.
He didn't have to worry about unloading the vegetables, and even the weighing was done with help.
The woman invited him to drink tea, and Xu Ling looked at her curiously. This was the first time he saw the escort agency, so he asked a few questions out of curiosity.
The woman acts swiftly and speaks differently from ordinary women.
"My man is the big boss here and the master of the martial arts school in front of me. Brother Xu, if you need escort for anything in the future, just come to our Xiang family. As long as you can remember me when selling vegetables, I will be sorry for you in the future. I have to work hard to feed dozens of men every day!"
It never hurts to have a few friends when you’re away from home.
Xu Ling promised the woman that when paying the bill, the woman would give him one, two and one hundred cents for the cabbage weighing more than 110 kilograms, which was one cent more than the market price. It was also regarded as Xu Ling's hard work fee.
After this trip, it was getting late. Xu Ling hurried to the dock to take the boat. When he passed by the wonton stall of Mr. and Mrs. Zhao, he gave them five prepared Chinese cabbages. Zhao Dalang wanted to give him money, so Xu Ling hurriedly Speed pulled the cart and ran away.
We got on board with an empty car and had another sleepless night.
On the third day of his trip, Xu Ling made a net profit of seven and a half taels of silver, and spent another three taels of silver to buy things needed for his family. After putting the things into the space, Xu Ling pulled another cart of cabbage.
After stopping at Lijiazhuang, Li Dayong also sells cabbage very well. He does not have a car like Xu Ling, so every time he goes to town, he can only put it into a bamboo basket and carry it on a pole, loading fifty or sixty kilograms at a time.
The next day, Li Dayong changed his strategy and stopped selling in bulk. He cooperated with a restaurant in Qinghe Town to provide special dishes for people.
Sure enough, as Xu Ling said, there were several restaurants that offered higher prices. He did not sign a separate deed with any of them, and he did not sign a separate deed with any of them, and he did not decide who would pay for it and how soon it would be sold to whom.
Is this good or bad? I would like to remind Li Dayong that there should be a limit to the price increase, so as not to annoy those who open restaurants. If you can open a restaurant in a town, you must know a lot of people. If you are dissatisfied with Li Dayong, you may secretly stumble. Also a possibility.
Li Dayong was so frightened that he agreed repeatedly, "If you hadn't told me, how could I have thought of this!"
Mrs. Li also told her son to listen to Xu Ling and not to be greedy.
Li Dayong sold cabbage to a restaurant for 11 cents per catty. When he bought it from Xu Ling, it cost six cents per catty. He made a net profit of 500 cents when selling a hundred catties.
It's already a large amount.
Xu Ling took Li Dayong's food payment and left him a cart of cabbage. The next time he comes out, he probably won't know how long it will be.
After leaving Lijiazhuang, Xu Ling took back the cart and drove lightly, much faster.
When he returned to Lianhuawanzi, it was still dark. As soon as the villagers saw him, they greeted him: "Xu Ling, are you going to do business again?"
"Ang," Xu Ling pulled the car and said with a smile, "I'm back."
"What a hard worker!"
When Xu Ling walked to the road outside his house, he saw that more than half of his new house had been built, and the villagers were putting up beams on the house.
As soon as Xu Ling came back, the family members were delighted, and they quickly asked Xu Ling what happened on the road.
Xu Ling asked his younger brothers and sisters to move the things in the car into the house.
Mrs. Xu muttered: "Why did you buy so many good things again? There is almost no room for them in the house!"
Xu Ling brought home two more pieces of cloth and bought some bacon and sausages.
"It's almost the Chinese New Year, why don't everyone in the family have new clothes? I can wear them all year round, and I'm not afraid of waste."
As soon as Xu Ling came back, Gu Tao went to the kitchen to work, and soon brought out a bowl of omelette noodle soup for Xu Ling to eat first to warm up.
Xu Ling squatted on the threshold holding a bowl, eating while responding to Mrs. Xu.
He makes money just to make his family live a good life. If he doesn't spend the money, why would he go out and work so hard?
Gu Litian was almost used to his son-in-law's behavior and only made a few remarks.
"When you are away from home, who knows when you will need money. My family can't afford that much money to help you, so you have to provide yourself with snacks and save some money."
In order to avoid causing trouble, the Shanghui family sold land to raise money.
Xu Ling responded with a smile, knowing that Gu Litian was doing this for his own good.
He had already paid back the money the Gu family paid to save him, and also gave him four taels of silver as a supplement. Gu Litian didn't intend to take it at first, but Xu Ling persuaded him to give him more snacks to find out who wanted to sell land in the village. He wanted to give it to The family buys several acres of land.
Even if Gu Litian doesn't want to accept the money, other members of the Gu family are willing to accept it.
They were very kind to Xu Ling, so there was no reason why they should not accept this small amount of filial piety money.
