Hanya Nan's face was gloomy. This woman spoke harshly. Lu Liangzhou was really unlucky to have such a sister. He hoped that the wheel of fate would still be the same as in the previous life.
She exhaled a breath and said simply, "Sister Mei Ying, you're right, I've given up. Let's not mention this matter in the future, okay?"
Lu Meiying nodded, "Didn't you take out all your things?"
"Well, they are all at the guest house."
"let's go."
Lu Liangzhou didn't want to see them at all, and Gu Mingtang didn't welcome them either.
The two children are not close to them.
There was no point in staying any longer.
Lu Liangzhou received a call from the guest house and found out that those people were gone. Although he was mentally prepared, he was still a little surprised.
He was short-tempered and for the first time in his life wanted to know what the woman had said to them.
After putting down the phone, Lu Liangzhou went to find Director Xu of the Logistics Department and wanted to buy a cart of firewood. If the logistics department had extra old newspapers, get some for him. He wanted to cover the wall.
Minister Xu agreed happily without asking, which made Lu Liangzhou secretly relieved.
Yes, everyone knows he is leaving, so who is going to put up the wall?
The spiced melon seeds were very successful.
Gu Mingtang grabbed a handful of melon seeds for the two children and asked them to sit on the Kang table to eat. He gave them some instructions and then observed them. Sometimes it is not just to say no contact. After all, you can't keep an eye on your children 24 hours a day. .
It is only right to let them learn to avoid risks.
The two children were obedient in this regard, and followed what Gui Mingtang said, not to chew with their teeth, but to peel them off one by one with their little hands. After peeling them off, they all handed them to her to eat.
Including Lu Hui, he also held up the first melon seed kernel peeled out.
His big eyes blinked, seeming a little shy.
Gu Mingtang was not polite and opened his mouth to eat. It tasted really good.
When Gangzi came to the Lingxi Brigade again, he was also pleasantly surprised when he tasted this kind of melon seeds. He had been working in the black market with his elder brother since he was twelve years old, and this was the first time he tasted melon seeds with this kind of taste.
Mingren are never allowed to speak secretly.
Gangzi asked tentatively, "Second Sister Gu, how do you plan to sell these melon seeds?"
"One dollar and six per catty, the lowest price. I don't care how much you sell it for."
"Ah?" Gangzi was shocked, "Is it too expensive? Who dares to buy it?"
Gu Mingtang asked back: "Do you really think it's expensive?"
Gangzi opened his mouth but said nothing.
"Commodities, if you think they are expensive, then you really can't sell them."
Gangzi said modestly: "Sister, what you said makes sense, but the price is really high. The fried melon seeds sold now only cost 90 cents a pound."
Gu Mingtang didn't mind that instead of calling her Sister Gu, she changed her name to Sister. "These are spiced melon seeds. They go through many processes. Just the various seasonings that we don't sell in Beihuang are very costly. And , the refined salt you need is not a small figure, I will give you one yuan and sixty cents, it is really the lowest price, if you can't accept it, I will sell it myself."
Gangzi hesitated. Although he was a boy, he also loved snacks. He seemed to want to eat these melon seeds after eating them?
Yes, that's what it feels like.
It leaves a fragrant mouthfeel and endless aftertaste.
He decided to settle the egg money and white lime money first.
This time there were forty eggs, and there were more goose eggs, twenty, and a few were broken. Gu Mingtang took them out and finally paid them according to the whole ones.
"Sister, just give me the white lime. To be honest, I was doing a favor for someone else, and that person's employer gave it to me."
"Can I give you three towels?" She had many more in the room, so this was the most common one.
"Okay." Gangzi agreed happily.
Gu Mingtang took out eight yuan and three towels, but still asked, "Your carriage is hired, and fifty cents will be deducted for the round trip. It seems that you can make one yuan difference in price for these eggs. Is it worthwhile to run like this in such a cold weather?" ?”
"If it weren't for the white lime, I would have come here on my legs. Sister, you are a great person. I won't hide it from you. Even if I can make fifty cents a day, in a month, it will only be fifteen yuan. Besides, I I’m just curious, sister, what good things do you have at home..."
Gu Mingtang's concept is still stuck on her prices before the apocalypse decades later.
But if you really want to pay for it in a real way, don’t underestimate the few cents.
Gu Mingtang took out a borrowed scale, weighed a pound of melon seeds, and placed it on a spotlessly clean reed mat. She had cut straw paper at home. She never went into an unprepared battle.
The two children came around curiously.
"Gangzi, I'm not hiding it from you. I said I sell melon seeds myself, not to bear the price with you. There must be only one in our county for spiced melon seeds. You see how I operate."
While she was talking, she had already divided a pound of melon seeds into ten parts, then wrapped them in cut straw paper and placed them on the kang table. "I went near the cinema and I sold a pack of melon seeds for two cents. Do you think someone would buy it?" ?"
Gangzi's eyes were bright, as if he had suddenly opened the door to a new world.
He blurted out, "Yes, there are people who buy such fragrant melon seeds for three cents." After saying this, he felt a little regretful. He would definitely buy it. Will Second Sister Gu increase the price?
Of course, Gu Mingtang would not raise the price on the ground. She kept some, and the rest, a total of fifty-eight kilograms, was wholesaled to Gangzi.
Gu Mingtang received a total of ninety-two yuan.
The remaining eight cents were wiped off directly.
The things were put in the bag, and then Gu Mingtang asked, "Can you help me put away a stove, the kind with a tube that is placed in the house for heating?"
Gangzi's heart moved, "Sister, I really know where it is. Didn't the textile factory in our county build a new batch of family buildings? The work was handed in at the end of the year. The houses are all heated. In the past, almost all the employees who lived in bungalows had them. A stove, you won’t need it after you go upstairs. If it’s really for sale, tell me a price you can accept, and I’ll bring it to you if it’s suitable.”
Gu Mingtang asked about the market situation and said, "You make the decision, I can trust you." He took a look at his mud wall and asked Gangzi to buy some old newspapers for her to plaster the wall during the New Year.
Gangzi happily agreed.
There was a horse-drawn carriage waiting outside, and Gangzi couldn't wait too long. Gu Mingtang sent him outside and found out that the young man's gloves were too torn, with several holes in them. How could they not leak?
I saw it just now. There were cracked wounds on the back of my hands. The exposed fingers were also red from the cold. They looked terrible.
"Wait for me." Gu Mingtang entered the room. She remembered that Lu Liangzhou once threw a pair of labor protection gloves at home. They were quite thick, but a little old. He put them in the cabinet after washing them, so he probably didn't want them anymore.
He handed the thick gloves to Gangzi, "This is... your brother-in-law's. Although it is a bit old, it is very warm. Don't dislike it..."
This teenager's face is always purple, either like fighting, or always beaten. He is worn and thin, and people are thin. They are shining with their eyes, with a stubborn stubborn.
