The Clever Wife of the 1960s Chapter 49 (Part 2)
"Of course not. The idler from so-and-so's family didn't sleep in the middle of the night and ran over to eavesdrop, saying that the thieves were very active. I heard it under the big banyan tree today!" said Dagui's wife.
"I knew that Zhang Si would definitely do it if he gave the money. There is a family in my mother's family who has the same situation. They treated him like a bastard after receiving the money." said Mrs. Han.
“…”
While they were talking to each other, Han Guobin had already arrived in Gaozheng Village.
Gao Zheng was not at home. He went to the fields with his wife.
But Gao Zheng's mother is taking care of the children in the village. Gao Zheng used to be a bachelor, but now he has two children.
Gao Zhengniang was very happy to see Han Guobin coming over and said, "I have saved a lot of eggs. I also collected eggs from the neighbors. They have all been checked and there are no bad eggs!"
"Sorry for the trouble, auntie." Han Guobin said with a smile.
"It's not a big deal. It's just a matter of shouting in the village." Gao Zhengniang said with a smile.
Thinking back, didn't his son go into the mountains to hunt with Han Guobin? He got a lot of money and helped the family pay off all the debts.
Later, I saved up money to buy a new pot for my family, and asked Han Guobin to buy it for me.
Also, Gao Zheng got married because he helped the other person buy a pot from Han Guobin. The other person was happy, so he introduced him to her.
Now the daughter-in-law is a hardworking one. She gave birth to two grandsons and a granddaughter. Gao Zhengniang is very satisfied.
Han Guobin weighed the eggs for her.
The price given to Gao Zhengniang was two cents higher. This was because she collected it from the village, so she would give her a better price.
The price of a pound of eggs increased by two cents, and I bought almost twenty pounds of eggs from Gao Zhengniang.
After calculating the money for Gao Zhengniang, she was very happy and said, "Take these over first, and you can have more next time. The new chickens we raised this year have grown up, so we won't be short of eggs in the future."
"I'm afraid I won't have time. I'll be busy later." Han Guobin said.
"That's okay. Let me know when you're free and I'll keep it for you then." Gao Zhengniang said.
Han Guobin thanked her and drove over to his mother-in-law's house.
Knowing that he was coming today, Brother Chen San refused to go to work.
Seeing that Third Brother Chen had not started working yet, Han Guobin immediately smiled and said, "Third Brother, are you waiting for me?"
He just had something to do with his third uncle, and he even brought the bicycle from home.
"I've been waiting for you, and finally you're here." Brother Chen San said with a smile.
"What's wrong?" Han Guobin asked.
Brother Chen San said, "Let's go inside and talk."
Mother Chen glanced at her son and asked her son-in-law, "Guobin, do you want to collect anything else besides eggs? I'll go to the village and ask for you."
"Excuse me, I want all the cucumbers, tomatoes, mushrooms and pickles." Han Guobin said.
When Chen's mother saw such a big car, she knew she didn't have to worry about whether she could take it with her.
Chen's mother went to the village to ask, and Chen Sange said while pouring water for his brother-in-law: "Guo Bin, how is my sister's business going?"
"That's great. Third brother wants to do it too?" Han Guobin asked.
"Think about it. You've done farm work before, so you know it's so tiring. I can't stand it." Brother Chen San said.
"Hanghang's mother is doing well selling buns. If you, third brother, want to go to the city, you can also open a shop and sell buns." Han Guobin said.
"I don't do that. I'm not good at cooking. Your sister-in-law only knows how to eat and can't cook. I just want to get some things from the village to sell in the city. Isn't there anything in the city?" said Brother Chen San.
"If there is nothing, what will the city people eat?" Han Guobin said with a smile: "Everything that is needed will be available, but this business can indeed be done. Even if we catch a few fish and bring them into the city, we can sell them quickly at four cents per pound."
"Yes, yes, I just want to transport these from the countryside to the city to sell!" Brother Chen nodded repeatedly.
"That's fine. Third brother, you can collect the things from people in our village and outside and send them over to me. Then you can sell them to me at a purchase price. I will sell them in my bun shop and you don't have to sell them yourself. What do you think?" Han Guobin asked.
"Then how much can I earn?" Brother Chen San looked at his brother-in-law and asked.
"That depends on how much goods you receive, Third Brother." Han Guobin said, "But I think it should not be less than this amount per day."
He pointed a finger.
"One cent?" Brother Chen San couldn't help but ask.
"Can I let you, my third brother, do it for one cent? One dollar as a minimum." Han Guobin said.
"Really?" Brother Chen's eyes lit up.
If you earn one dollar, that would be thirty dollars a month, which is a lot!
"Chickens, ducks, fish, meat, eggs, and cucumbers, tomatoes, cabbages, potatoes, etc., which are not rare in our countryside, are wanted by people in the city. You can transport them to the bun shop and let my wife sell them. You can make some money and my wife can make some too. We can make money together. What do you think, Third Brother?" Han Guobin said.
"Okay!" Brother Chen San's eyes sparkled. It turned out that what he was thinking was right. The city was in short supply of these things.
Han Guobin said: "Brother San, come out with me."
The two men came out of the house, and Han Guobin took the bicycle down from the truck bed.
Brother Chen San was surprised and asked, "You even brought a bicycle with you?"
"I will be busy soon and won't have time to go back to the countryside to collect eggs. I think you are a talented person, so I brought the bicycle to you." Han Guobin said.
Brother Chen San took a look at this unusual brother-in-law and said, "I think you really want to order me around."
"How dare I? You are my third brother." Han Guobin said, "If I don't send you a bicycle, will you carry the load and go to the city on your own two feet?"
Brother Chen San didn't say anything to him and said, "Okay, leave it to me. When are you busy?"
"I estimate it will be soon." Han Guobin said: "You can start sending them in three days later."
Brother Chen San confirmed the location with him and also asked for the location of his home, in case the bun shop was closed if they went there too late.
Han Guobin explained it clearly to him.
After the two of them finished talking, Chen's mother had already brought a lot of people over.
Han Guobin accepted all the things, calculated the money one by one, and then drove to Chen Sijie An Dabang's place.
The neighbors on both sides started to praise Chen's mother, saying that she had a good eye for choosing a son-in-law. Look at this little son-in-law, he is really going to be very successful.
I guess he’s almost becoming a millionaire, right?
"You old women just love to argue. The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes. If you can become a millionaire by selling those two buns, then the world will be full of bun shops!" Mother Chen rolled her eyes.
"That's promising." Everyone laughed.
Mother Chen chatted with them for a while before returning home. She saw the bicycle and asked in surprise, "Why did Guobin leave his bicycle at home?"
"Guobin's transportation department will be busy soon and won't have time to receive the goods, so he asked me to collect them from the countryside and deliver them over." Brother Chen San said.
"How much money did you want?" Chen's mother looked at her son directly and asked.
"What do you mean by how much money I asked for, mom? I am your biological son." Brother Chen San said.
Mother Chen looked at him and asked: "Do you want your nephews and nieces to starve?"
"Tsk tsk, that's exaggerated." Brother Chen San grinned and said, "I don't know how much Guobin gets for this job. Mom, you won't tell me, but I estimate it's not much less. And he comes here every week to carry so much supplies. If you add it up, I estimate he earns this much a month!"
He also raised a finger.
"How much?" Chen's mother raised her eyebrows.
"One hundred." Brother Chen San looked outside the door and whispered, "I guess my little sister is really going to get rich!"
It is definitely impossible to become a ten thousand yuan household so quickly, but he estimated that it would be soon possible to become a thousand yuan household!
A household with a fortune of 1,000 yuan is truly amazing. Many elderly people have saved for most of their lives, but only have a few hundred yuan.
"Let's talk about this bicycle." Chen's mother also knew what was going on and said.
"Guobin has been busy lately, so he asked me to collect and deliver the goods to the bun shop and pay according to the price. My younger sister and I have a good relationship, but brothers and sisters should settle accounts clearly and not be vague in the account book in order to maintain it for a long time. I will settle the accounts with my younger sister when I go there. Of course, my younger sister is not the kind of person who would be vague with me. She never suffers any loss in big things, so you don't have to worry about her, mother." Brother Chen San said.
Chen's mother laughed and scolded: "I don't know who he looks like, slick and slippery."
"He must be like my uncle. He's not slick, he's smart." Brother Chen San said, and then he went to get his bicycle and said, "I'm going to pick up my wife first. She's pregnant. Don't let her mother beat her when we go back."
"If her mother dares to hurt my grandson, I will kill her and destroy her business!" Chen's mother snorted.
