When Su He returned home, he saw Ye Chuanxiu standing at the door looking worriedly.
Su He walked over and said, "It's okay, just say a few words."
Ye Chuanxiu sighed and turned to work.
Even in the off-season, I still have to do laundry and so on. Housework is so complicated that you will never find yourself with nothing to do.
It's easy to find something to do.
Su Zhaohua went out with a big head on his shoulders, and he also had a restless character.
To say this, it is really a good advantage. It's a pity that my head hasn't turned around yet.
As expected, Su Mei came back quickly and didn't say much. She didn't say what she and Qian Rui had said.
But after coming back, Su Mei and Su He said: "When school starts, Qian Rui and I will have to repeat the class."
Su He knew that Qian Rui was ready to agree.
The reason why I didn't say it myself was probably because I was a little embarrassed.
Well, maybe you need to think about it a little more.
If you don’t speak up for yourself, there is still the possibility of regretting it.
Su Rong happened to come out. When she heard Su Mei's words, she raised her eyebrows: "Sister, you have failed the exam, why are you still studying?"
Su Mei's face darkened, and she looked at Su Rong with a strange expression.
Su He said: "Don't care what others say. You are naturally responsible for your own life. Just listen to the good things others say. As for whether you want to adopt them, you still have to see if they are sugar-coated bullets. As for other people's bad words, Just treat it as a barking dog. If you take everything into your heart, do you want to live a good life in the future?"
Su Mei was startled, then chuckled.
Su Rong pointed at Su He: "You!"
But Su He didn't care. If they really regarded themselves as a family, how could they say bad words to each other?
Su He and Su Rong did not deal with each other, and they had several conflicts.
The eldest sister has never done anything to make Su Mei feel sorry for Su Rong, and she has always taken good care of Su Rong.
It can be seen from this that Su Rong was raised useless since she was a child.
Su He didn't know why his parents doted on Su Rong so much. It was simply ridiculous.
Su He left directly, and Su Rong didn't vent her anger.
The next day, the village organized the distribution of public grain.
Su He did not go to the city. There were still too few shoes accumulated in the village in the past few days. Next time, he would accumulate more shoes and go directly to the city, where they would be sold out in no time.
The place where public grain is handed over is at the grain management office in the town.
But this place is not in Zhangshu Town, but on a mountain a little distance from the town.
Province J is very hilly and is actually just a small hillside.
Under the coordination of the uncle, Nanzhu Village got dozens of carts to transport the rice there.
This situation requires going back and forth many times.
Su He had never seen anyone handing over public food before, so he went with him this time.
Looking at a bunch of uncles and uncles pushing carts, not to mention, I'm a little tired.
This road is a yellow mud road, which is not easy to walk in the first place.
There were some potholes on the road, and it was often left sideways.
The most difficult thing is the uphill road.
An uncle was pulling in front, and several uncles were pushing behind. Even this was very difficult.
Going downhill was not much better, saving effort was a saving grace, but the uncle pulling the cart in front had to press the cart hard to avoid going straight downhill.
The cart that Su He followed was pulled by Uncle Zhibo.
As soon as we went down the slope, Uncle Zhibo smiled and said: "It's a bit expensive to go down this slope. Fortunately, He Yazi, you sold me a pair of shoes at a cheap price. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to bear it under my feet."
Su He said modestly, and then asked: "But, Uncle Zhibo, why don't we use oxen to pull the cart? Oxen are strong, so it won't be such a hassle."
Uncle Zhibo wiped his sweat and then said: "It's not that we can't, but we feel sorry for the cows. When the farming is busy, the cows are exhausted. It's better to let the cows rest more."
As soon as I arrived at Shanlan Village, I found that Shanlan Village was also preparing to hand over public grain.
Uncle Zhiba said: "Look, if every village is pulled by oxen, there will be too many buffaloes, and they will get together and fight easily."
If there are too many buffaloes, it will be easier for them to fight.
When the time comes, it's not something that one or two adults can hold back.
Grandpa's cart was right in front. Su He also saw the old village chief of Shanlan Village going over to joke with Grandpa.
For some reason, Su He saw them looking back several times. He felt that something might be wrong?
After crossing the bridge, we are almost near the hill where the warehouse of the Grain Management Office is located.
Uncle Zhiba shouted: "Work harder, this mountain is still a bit steep."
Su He didn't know why the Grain Management Office built the warehouse on such a hill.
Probably just moisture and flood protection?
Well, it should be due to ventilation.
In an environment lacking oxygen, plant cells are prone to anaerobic respiration, leading to food fermentation and spoilage.
We arrived at the place, but there were many people paying public food. Nanzhu Village was not the first to arrive, so we had to wait.
The uncle came over and said to Su He: "Just now, Lao Lin from Shanlan Village told me that he wanted to wholesale a batch of shoes at the shoe factory. Their village is also short of shoes."
This is a common problem in this era. A family only has two shoe tickets a year. If these shoes are worn a lot, aren't they easy to wear out?
Su He frowned: "How much does a pair cost?"
The uncle said: "Fifty cents."
Are you kidding me? Wanting a pair of shoes for 50 cents is like a dream.
Su He refused directly: "Impossible, my cost is more than this. He wants to rob?"
"You can't say that."
An old man's voice came. Su He turned around and saw the old village chief of Shanlan Village.
He came over and said to Su He: "Your raw materials are wholesale, so the price must be much lower. We also wholesale, so the price will naturally come down."
Good logic!
The problem is, these shoes are not worth selling now.
They cost only one yuan a pair, and they will be sold out in no time.
Then why should I sell it to you for fifty cents a pair?
And these are rubber soles. Although the cost is less than 50 cents, if I sell them to you for 50 cents, what will I make?
Su He said directly: "Then just bring a pair of shoes and a shoe ticket. Fifty cents is still not enough. Seventy cents a pair, bring a shoe ticket."
Chief Lin of Shanlan Village frowned: "If I have shoe tickets, can I come to you to buy them?"
Su He spread his hands: "But your counteroffer is too harsh. My cost price is not even enough. If I sell it to you, I will lose money. Then why should I still be in business? If you don't tell me, I still have to pay labor fees, and loss."
Village Chief Lin frowned: "I have calculated carefully, you should be able to make a profit. The cost of the canvas, rubber sole and sewing thread, even if it is labor, it does not cost so much."
Su He said: "Then your calculation is really good. No loss? I don't want to transport? I still have to order these things. If you can do it yourself, why don't you buy the materials and make it yourself? These shoes are so easy to make. It’s not difficult.”
Village Chief Lin thought to himself: "Nonsense, if I could buy raw materials, would I still come to you to buy them?"
Seeing that Su He refused to agree, Village Chief Lin said, "Don't forget, you have to pass by our village every day."
