Chapter 6 Only with money can you be successful
"Hello, brother." Lin Jing quickly got off the tractor, shook his hand warmly, and quickly stuffed a pack of cigarettes into his hand.
"I'm sorry, brother, there is nothing we can do about this. My sister-in-law is pregnant with twins. The doctor in the town said that she will definitely have to do the surgery in the city. My brother and I have no other way to make money, so we can only Drag out the food at home and see if I can exchange it for some medical expenses."
It sounds a bit sympathetic, after all, who knows how much the surgery will cost.
Judging from the appearance of the two of them, they indeed looked like honest country people, not like the kind of people who cheat and show off.
The most important thing is the pack of cigarettes in his hand. Most people only give you one cigarette for anything they ask for, and the polite ones only give you two. But this person gave a whole pack of unopened cigarettes. The fat security guard put his hands in each other's sleeves. Put away the cigarette without leaving any trace inside.
He shook his shoulders and said, "Okay, I see it's not easy for you. Just drive the car a little over and don't block the road."
"Hey, thank you, brother." Lin Jing responded quickly, and then directed Lin Yun to move the car.
Most of the locals in Qi City built their own houses and kept vegetable cellars or places to store vegetables, and they began to collect vegetables in winter.
Most of the employees in the gear factory live in the tube building of their work unit. There is not so much space to store vegetables, but there is still a huge need to buy them.
Soon, family members of factory employees came out one after another.
Lin Jing had already taken out some of the vegetables on the tractor and arranged them neatly in categories. When she saw someone, she shouted, "Vegetables are being sold. Fresh vegetables are cheap. Come and take a look."
After shouting for a while, someone came over and asked, "How do you sell these potatoes?"
Lin Jing said: "Sister, all the vegetables at my house cost eight cents per catty, and dried vegetables cost three cents per catty."
Lin Yun was shocked, could he sell it at this price?
The other party also said: "Sister, your potatoes are a bit expensive. Clean ones on the market only cost eight cents a pound. Are they still stained with dirt?"
"There's a reason why they are expensive. These are the freshest. They were just picked out last night. Look, they are all still stained with dirt. Doesn't eating vegetables mean that they are fresh?"
It made sense, but the other party still hesitated.
"Sister, how many people are in your family?" Lin Jing asked.
The other party said: "There are only two of us, what's wrong?"
Lin Jing picked out a few vegetables and a handful of dried fungus, "I'll mix it for you. A family of two can mix it like this. Sister, you can buy a few eggs, cut a few taels of meat, and mix it with meat and vegetables. It won't be a problem to eat it for four or five days. How about giving you a dollar in total?”
Chinese cabbage and potatoes were weighed, and dried fungus was not cheap. You could eat it for four or five days for one dollar, but you could get a few more varieties. The other party didn't ask for weighing when he saw the amount, so he just paid for it.
It will be easier if someone opens it.
The gear factory's current income is not bad. The food and drink are not bad, if not too good. The ordinary vegetables from the field are fresh, and the local products can improve the taste.
"Sister, there are five people in my family, so please give me enough food for five days."
Lin Jing raised her head and glanced at her. The gear factory was where Zhang Guohua worked before he was laid off. She was familiar with most of the family members. She knew everything about them, but it wasn't difficult to coordinate them a little, and she would never let the other party feel that she was at a disadvantage.
In about an hour, a tractor-trailer of vegetables was sold.
"It's gone so soon?" The fat security guard naturally hopes that the brother and sister's business will be good, and it is best to come every day in the future.
Lin Jing naturally had to say a few nice words and gave him the remaining two potatoes.
"Are you coming tomorrow?" The family members behind who didn't buy anything looked regretful.
Lin Jing replied: "I will definitely not come here these two days. I will come here to sell in a few days."
Someone who bought vegetables in front turned around and asked: "Sister, do you have these at home? Do you have any eggs, meat, etc.? We just bought them all from you?"
Lin Jing smiled and said: "The eggs are too far away for fear of being damaged by the bumps on the road. The meat is only home-smoked cured fish and bacon. If you like it, you can bring some with you next time."
The man said: "Okay, if there is any fresh fish, I will get one for my aunt."
Lin Jing should be fine of course.
After packing up her things with a smile and cleaning the floor briefly so as not to cause trouble to others, Lin Jing left with Lin Yun.
"Sister, you are so awesome. We must have made a lot of money today." He didn't help much when he saw his sister selling vegetables. Now Lin Yun couldn't help but admire her.
Lin Jing gave him a contemptuous look, "How much does this cost? Look at your potential."
Lin Yundao: "Isn't that much? I just calculated it clearly. Today, the car was sold for eighty-six yuan and fifty cents. After deducting the cost, we can earn seventy-eight yuan for this trip, which is my uncle's monthly salary." I’m afraid there aren’t that many.”
He didn't expect that people in the city could make money so easily. He really came late.
Lin Jing secretly admired his mental arithmetic ability, but couldn't help but mutter: If he is so good at mental arithmetic, why do he always get plotted by others when gambling?
"By the way, the vegetables in this city are so expensive, do we pay a little less for collecting the vegetables?" Lin Yun asked with a guilty conscience.
Everyone in the village plucked each other several bags of vegetables for free, so Lin Yun didn't charge much for swiping his face.
Lin Jing said: "In business, these vegetables grown in the fields can't be exchanged for a penny, not to mention not everyone can get money by selling them. Most people lose money."
She also lived in the city in her previous life and knew some ways. Otherwise, if she dragged it to the vegetable market, she would definitely not be able to sell it out by now, and she would not be able to sell it at this price.
"Besides, even if the villagers know that there is money to be made here, would they dare to drive a tractor out on a day like this?"
Lin Yun is the only one in the village who has this ability.
"That's right, we have to freeze for several hours this time." A cold wind blew, and Lin Yun shivered all over. Being cold and hungry, he felt that this job was really not something ordinary people could do.
Lin Jing comforted her: "If you feel sorry for me, just give me more candies and cookies during the Chinese New Year."
Lin Yun nodded repeatedly, thinking this method was good.
Then, Lin Jing took him to have a bowl of mutton noodle soup to warm up.
Vegetables in the city are expensive, and the sheep noodle soup in the city is twice as expensive as in the city. Lin Yun muttered this while eating, which earned Lin Jing several looks.
Lin Jing frowned slightly, "Can't you be a bit promising?"
Lin Yun: "You can only be successful if you have money."
Lin Jing rolled her eyes again, "You can't make enough money, but your body is yours."
Lin Yun drank all the soup in the bowl but still felt pain in his body, "How about we ask mom to bake some pancakes to eat on the way tomorrow?"
"Absolutely not!" Lin Jing said firmly.
When I was young, I didn’t think that it would harm my stomach and intestines, and I would be waiting to be harmed for the rest of my life.
