Every village would have one or two "village guardians." They were often simple-minded and foolish, yet kind-hearted.
The older generation often said that village guardians came to th...
The two went to the bank first and deposited the money.
After Chen Dazhuang got married, he also opened a savings account in the bank, and now he has become a low-key millionaire.
, 6600 per person for two people.
Chen Wang deposited 6,000 yuan into the bank, and his bank balance reached yuan. He planned to take the remaining 600 yuan back with him.
There is actually more than a thousand pocket money at home.
These days, many families only have a few hundred yuan in savings.
After leaving the bank, it was almost 12 o'clock, and the two hurriedly rode their bikes to the purchasing station.
The purchasing station had just closed for business, and Master Wang was explaining something to an employee.
"Master Wang, let's go and have dinner."
Chen Wang shouted from the doorway.
"Okay, here I come."
Master Wang agreed with a smile, gave his employees a few instructions, and then walked quickly towards the door.
The three of them walked to the supply and marketing cooperative and just happened to see Xu Meijuan coming out with her father.
After everyone arrived, they chatted and laughed all the way to the restaurant that Xu Meijuan had recommended.
The proprietress brought the menu and Chen Wang handed it directly to Xu Meijuan and asked her to order.
"Master Wang, Director Xu, would you like to have a drink together?"
Chen Wang looked at the two of them and asked.
"Then drink some."
Master Wang nodded with a smile.
"Can."
Xu Tiancheng also nodded in agreement.
"Give us two bottles of your best liquor!"
Chen Wang said to the proprietress beside him.
The proprietress agreed with a smile on her face and took out a pen and paper to write down the dishes Xu Meijuan ordered.
Xu Meijuan ordered six dishes and a soup, looked at everyone and asked, "That should be enough, is there anything else you want to eat?"
Master Wang, Xu Tiancheng and Chen Dazhuang all shook their heads.
"I want some fried peanuts. Do you have braised beef?"
Chen Wang asked the proprietress.
"some."
"Then give me another plate of braised beef. That's all for now."
"Okay, the food will be here soon."
After writing it down, the proprietress hurried to the kitchen.
Xu Meijuan picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea for everyone.
"Awang, I haven't seen you guys recently. Xiaojuan said you guys went to the city to sell crayfish. I could only buy crayfish from other shops at the market, but unfortunately none of them taste as good as yours."
Xu Tiancheng said with a smile.
"There's no other way. If we don't want to get into a price war, we can only go a little further to the city."
"You are right. The cheapest price of crayfish in the market some time ago was as low as 80 cents per pound."
"Eighty cents? That's not much profit."
"Yes, you don't know, after you left, there were more and more people selling crayfish in the market, and the competition was fierce."
"Crayfish? I've bought and eaten them before. Was this something you made, Awang?"
Master Wang looked at Chen Wang in surprise.
Chen Wang smiled and nodded.
"That's why they haven't come to the purchasing station in the past few months. They have been selling crayfish. They must have made a lot of money."
Xu Meijuan pushed a cup of tea in front of Chen Wang and said with a smile.
Chen Wang smiled, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.
"Old Wang, you may not know this, but they sold it for 3 yuan per pound at the beginning, but it's really delicious."
Director Xu said with a smile on his face.
"3 yuan per pound? So expensive? Awang, you guys know how to make money!"
Master Wang looked at Chen Wang in surprise.
"Scarcity makes things valuable. I know there will be people who will take over my business, so I just want to make as much money as possible and then move on."
Chen Wang grinned.
A few people were chatting and laughing, and soon the proprietress brought over two bottles of wine, as well as two side dishes: braised beef and fried peanuts.
Chen Dazhuang was a little confused about the topic, so he took a bottle of wine, opened it and poured wine for everyone.
Xu Meijuan doesn't drink, so she asked the proprietress to bring her a bottle of soda.
"Come on, Director Xu, Master Wang, I toast to you!"
Chen Wang raised his glass to toast.
Seeing this, Chen Dazhuang quickly picked up the wine glass in front of him.
"Thank you, cheers!"
"Let's go!"
Master Wang and Xu Tiancheng raised their glasses and clinked them with the two men.
The cups were all small wine glasses, and everyone just tilted their heads back and drank it all in one gulp.
After a glass of wine, everyone showed an expression of enjoyment on their faces and picked up their chopsticks to eat the food.
The meal lasted from 12 o'clock to 2 o'clock in the afternoon and cost a total of 12.6 yuan.
Of course the food alone wouldn't cost so much, and the two bottles of wine are not cheap.
After finishing the last two bottles of wine, Chen Wang suggested adding another bottle, but Master Wang and Director Xu both declined.
Both of them can drink a lot, but they still have to go to work in the afternoon, so it would not be appropriate to get drunk.
The group separated outside the restaurant.
Master Wang and Xu Meijuan returned to the purchasing station.
Chen Wang and Chen Dazhuang went to the supply and marketing cooperative with Director Xu to buy some things.
Following the list given by his wife, Chen Wang bought everything. Finally, he bought some kiwi fruit for the little girl, as well as some common fruits such as apples and bananas.
After packing the things into sacks and tying them on the bike, Chen Wang said goodbye to Director Xu, and then the two rode their bicycles home.
…
…
When he arrived at his doorstep, Chen Wang stopped his bike.
"Awang, are you going into the mountains tomorrow?"
Chen Dazhuang asked loudly.
"I'll take a few days off and talk to you later. You can go if you want!"
Chen Wang responded.
"All right!"
Chen Dazhuang nodded helplessly and rode away on his bicycle.
Chen Wang pushed his bicycle into the yard.
