When the uncle heard this, his eyes widened immediately: "Old Lin, do you dare to threaten us? Have you forgotten ten years ago..."
Old Lin laughed dryly. Ten years ago, because of Su He's second uncle's incident, Nanzhu Village gathered all the men and attacked Shanlan Village.
That time, although nothing serious happened, no one was killed.
But Shanlan Village knows that Nanzhu Village can fight.
He sneered: "Isn't there nothing I can do? We are poor."
Su He didn't interrupt. For such an elderly person, it was still up to the grandpa to deal with it.
The uncle snorted coldly: "Whose family is not poor?"
Village Chief Lin looked at Su He with his eyes, his meaning couldn't be more obvious.
The uncle pretended not to see it and said to Village Chief Lin: "Let's do this. Since you are so shameless to ask..."
Village Chief Lin wanted to refute, but the uncle said: "Do you still want the shoes?"
Immediately, Village Chief Lin stopped talking.
The uncle continued: "There are many marriages between our two villages. Since you have come to ask for help, I have to give you some face. Well, everyone is short of shoe tickets, so it is impossible to give them. Let's do it like this, I make the decision. Don't think about it for one dollar, but you can't say fifty cents. For this small amount of money, my grandson is right. In addition to the cost of the raw materials, he also has to run connections, open up links, and buy Raw materials and transportation back all cost money. You don’t object to these, do you?”
Village Chief Lin nodded. Although he didn't know the specific costs, what the uncle said did require costs.
Seeing Village Chief Lin nodding, the uncle said: "What's more, we have to pay the women in our village for handicrafts. Let's pay 80 cents for a pair of shoes. That's enough for me. You..."
Village Chief Lin licked his face and said with a smile: "It's still too expensive. We are really poor."
The grandfather laughed and scolded: "Come on. Your village is close to the town. The two bridges are not far from your village. The transportation is developed. It is much better than other villages."
Village Chief Lin wanted to polish it again, so the uncle said: "Let's do it. A pair of shoes is 75 cents, which can't be cheaper anymore. If you keep saying it, I won't speak for you."
After a pause, the uncle said: "Besides, don't say anything about our village not being able to pass through your side. If this matter becomes a big deal, it's your fault. If you agree, then you can get money in exchange for it in two days." . If you don’t agree, then it will be considered as my words were in vain.”
When Village Chief Lin saw his uncle like this, he knew that he had hit the lowest price.
Nodding, Village Chief Lin agreed: "Okay, I'll pick up the shoes in two days. But, can't you do it today?"
The grandfather smiled and scolded: "How can it be so easy to make shoes? You want a lot of them, and we also need time to produce them."
Village Chief Lin finally agreed, said a few good words, and then left.
Looking at the back of Village Chief Lin, the uncle said to Su He: "I decided to lower the price by 25 cents for you, do you have any objection?"
Su He shook his head: "How could it be? After all, we still make a profit. It also saves me the process of going out to sell. Besides, it's hard for us fellow villagers to fall out."
The grandfather nodded and said seriously: "The most important thing is that we have to pass by Shanlan Village. Don't offend us. In the past, it was not uncommon for villages to fight over land and water, and fights between villages. But this matter has become a big deal, and the superiors The leaders also have opinions. Now that you are self-employed, you are already eye-catching. If we make trouble again, we are afraid that the leaders above will have opinions on you."
But after all is said and done, the focus is actually on the road.
Nanzhu Village happens to be surrounded by two rivers and a mountain range. If you want to get out, you have to take a boat.
Otherwise, they all have to pass through Shanlan Village.
This is the lifeblood.
Su He looked around and saw that he was surrounded by his own people, so he whispered to the grandpa: "Grandpa, this is not an option. We have to build the bridge ourselves. As long as we can get outside, no If you need to go to Shanlan Village, you can ignore the many things that get stuck."
In the relationship between Nanzhu Village and Shanlan Village, although Nanzhu Village can fight, it is still at a disadvantage.
Otherwise, if you have to pass through other people's villages, you have to give some face.
The grandfather touched his head and said distressedly: "Do you think it's so easy to build a bridge? It's free to build a bridge? And the flood..."
At this point, the uncle was startled.
Su He laughed: "Really? Now is the best opportunity."
Uncle Zhiba was nearby and heard the conversation between the two.
Including the previous threats from Village Chief Lin of Shanlan Village, he had completely ignored them.
Now that he heard Su He's words, Uncle Zhibo's eyes lit up: "Dad, what He Yazi said makes sense. It just so happens that there is a drought this year. Isn't the river water declining? When the water is almost gone, we will organize the repair of the bridge. This bridge It must be repaired, otherwise we will get stuck in the neck every time. Not to mention grabbing the fields, we are also stuck in the water during irrigation. We are upstream, how can we get stuck in the neck?"
The grandpa was obviously moved. Su He struck while the iron was hot and said: "Moreover, we will build two bridges. One leads to the city, which can greatly reduce the time we take to go to the city. It only takes two hours to walk. One goes to the city. Over in Anxi City, we will open a market behind the village in the future, and the business will definitely be good."
The uncle patted Su He on the back of the head and said, "What are you trying to tell me? There aren't many self-employed people, and they still open a market. Do you think you can open a market if you want? That thing must be under the control of the state."
Just as Su He was about to retort, someone shouted over there: "Nanzhu Village, it's your turn."
The grandfather immediately organized people to move the millet over and prepare to hand over the public grain.
But Uncle Zhibo's eyes lit up: "He Yaozi, you are smart, can what you say really come true?"
Su He knew very well the principle of saving the country through curves. It didn't matter if the grandpa didn't agree. If the grandpa's son agreed, it would be easy to do it if he turned around.
Su He nodded and lowered his voice and said: "Uncle Zhibo, tell me, have you ever seen a self-employed person before me? Well, in recent years."
Uncle Zhiba shook his head: "I've definitely never seen it before."
Su He added: "Look, there are already self-employed people. In the future, there will be more and more self-employed people. Don't we need a place to do business? Let's set up a market, and those self-employed people will naturally come back to us."
At this point, Su He had a slightly different concept.
There are too many self-employed people and no place to do business?
You just need to go to the city, or to the county seat, it’s all fine.
Why do people want to come to your place?
Su He also has some plans for these. As for what they are, I won’t say more for now.
A staff member brought a very sharp object over, randomly found a bag of millet on the cart and inserted it into it, and a lot of millet came out.
This is to test the quality of the millet.
Su He didn't understand anyway, so he just waited and pushed the millet to the barn with Uncle Zhibo.
