The middle-aged man shook his head: "It has been sold to someone else, and it belongs to others. No matter how high the price is, you can't go back on it."
"Hey, this ham is still on the pig, how can you say it belongs to him?" The two young people did not expect that the middle-aged man would act like this, and couldn't help laughing, "Besides, we are from the same village. After all, people have some kindness. They would rather sell to people from other villages than to us. What’s the point?”
"The truth is, if you promise others first, you can't go back on it. This is called integrity." The middle-aged man named Zhang Wei had a sense of righteousness in his words.
Zhang Xiaoyang was stunned when he heard this and decided to make this friend.
The two of them still didn't give up, so they didn't believe it. They didn't care about the fellow villagers or the money, so they tried to give a price: "He paid one yuan, and I paid one yuan and five cents."
Zhang Wei shook his head.
"One yuan for one, I'll sell it now. Your pair of hams weighs at least fifty kilograms, so you can sell them for five yuan more." The two of them seemed to be at odds with Zhang Xiaoyang.
This made Zhang Xiaoyang feel very uncomfortable and felt like he was being tricked. He couldn't help but watch with cold eyes and was not eager to bid.
If Zhang Wei wants to sell to two people, he won't fight.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Wei shook his head and didn't even answer.
The two of them looked at Zhang Wei with some will-o'-the-wisps, and said: "The most you can pay is one yuan and two."
"It's really not about money, it's about integrity. As the saying goes, money is like dung, but kindness is worth a thousand pieces of gold. No matter how much you offer, I will never break your trust." Zhang Wei's words made the two of them furious.
Zhang Xiaoyang couldn't understand it.
The two of them seemed to be mad at the gamble and said in a deep voice: "One dollar and a half, even if I lose money, I can't bear this breath."
"Okay, you can sell it to him. These two are sold as three!" Zhang Xiaoyang was stunned and looked at Zhang Wei and said.
"Yes, such a good thing, just sell it to them." The two people who came to help kill the pig also began to turn around at this moment.
"I won't sell it!" Zhang Wei also seemed to be on the hook and said coldly: "I won't sell it for even two yuan. If I sell it to this little brother, it will be his."
The two of them were so angry that they almost vomited blood. They never expected that such a person existed in the world?
"Okay, in that case, I promise to sell it to you." Zhang Xiaoyang had an idea and paid out 1.5 yuan. Even if he gave it to Zheng Bajing himself and cured it into old ham, he might not be able to earn 25 yuan in the end.
Two people: "..."
"That's your business. Anyway, I only charge you one yuan per catty. I don't care how much you change hands." Zhang Wei said expressionlessly, but Zhang Xiaoyang could see that this man was angry with him. Angry.
"Forget it, do you think it's really a mercenary thing?" Naturally, the two of them would not let Zhang Xiaoyang earn fifty cents without any trouble, but turned around and left.
Looking at the two people walking away, Zhang Wei sighed: "Let me tell you, these two people are completely disrupting the situation."
Zhang Xiaoyang didn't have much to say. He helped Zhang Wei and others kill the pigs, and stayed to eat. Then he weighed the ham and was about to leave. Zhang Xiaoyang suddenly said: "Uncle, let's do it. If you can buy it here, If you get a good ham, I’ll give you two cents per pound.”
"Forget it, little brother, I am not a business material, as you have seen." Zhang Wei refused immediately.
Really, Zhang Zhuan was right. He was not a businessman and his heart was not dark enough. Otherwise, why would he not have sold it to those two people at a high price?
Zhang Xiaoyang had no choice but to leave and look for another home if he had the chance. The top priority was to buy ham along the way, just to save gas money.
Along the way, more and more people were killing pigs, and some had already sold the hams to others. It wasn't until it was almost dark that Zhang Xiaoyang returned to Shili Village and purchased more than 500 kilograms of ham, which was quite a gain.
Oddly enough, when people watched him driving the tractor, they seemed to realize that he had a stronger foundation, and consciously or unconsciously chose to sell to him instead of those small traders.
Of course, there is another important reason: I think this young man is good-looking and makes a good first impression.
Before he entered the entrance of Shili Village, a woman blocked his way.
Although Zhang Xiaoyang felt extremely unhappy at this time, he still called her sister.
"Haha, brother, look, I said, you must be a great person, didn't I say it right? When I treated you like this, you can't be angry with me. You have to understand my sister's painstaking efforts. ." Zhang Xiao'e's smile was so fake and disgusting.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Xiaoyang's brows wrinkled unconsciously.
He didn't expect that Zhang Xiao'e had the nerve to stop him on the road.
"Hey, brother, my sister has cooked for you, let's go and eat together. In addition, don't rent a house anymore, just live in my sister's house. Although the house is a little smaller, just the two of me can do it. We can make do with living there for a few years, and when we have money in the future, we can build it bigger." Zhang Xiao'e smiled brightly, comparable to wild flowers in February.
"I appreciate your sister's kindness. I'm used to renting a house, so I don't need to trouble my sister to worry about it." Zhang Xiaoyang understood what she was planning, and naturally he wouldn't be fooled.
Besides, I was homeless at the time, so I came all the way to find her, hoping that she would take her in and give her a meal for the time being. She showed no mercy at all and wouldn't even let her in, let alone give her a bowl of water.
Now, seeing myself helping Zheng Bajin for a few small sums of money, he regarded himself as a brother, and he was so polite and wanted to let him live with her and eat with her.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
He couldn't help but smile and said: "That's it, I'll leave first, Brother Zheng is still waiting for me."
With that said, he got in line and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiao'e arrived in front of the tractor in one step, blocked the way, and said with a smile: "Brother, you are still angry with your sister. You really misunderstood your sister. If I didn't force you like this, you would be where you are today." ? You should be grateful to me!"
"I'm not angry with you. You're right. I really want to thank you. Without you, I wouldn't be able to see clearly the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and I wouldn't have met Brother Zheng. But, I really have something to do now, please let me open!"
Zhang Xiaoyang sneered and said.
He really didn't expect that his sister would be so shameless. He even blushed for her when he had such a sister.
"Brother, my sister is really doing it for you..."
"That's enough, I know." Faced with Zhang Xiao'e who refused to give up or get out of the way, speaking one brother at a time, saying it was for his own good, Zhang Xiaoyang interrupted her directly, fearing that if she continued talking, his heart would soften. , and believed her lies, "But, I have something to do now and I have to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the ham in the car smells bad, the loss will be great. Even if I sell you, I can't afford to compensate Brother Zheng."
As he said that, he suddenly hit the accelerator and looked like he was about to rush over.
Zhang Xiao'e was startled and instinctively took a step back.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoyang released the clutch and rushed past her.
Zhang Xiao'e gritted her teeth with hatred, but she still had a smile on her face. She chased him a few steps back, shouting as he chased: "Brother, do you remember? When you were young, your sister had one hand as big as her back, and she was like this The best person in the world for you!"
Zhang Xiaoyang had already gone far away, and the "rumbling" sound of the diesel engine drowned out the woman's scream.
