Chapter 112: Phone Number
At the beginning, Jiang Xin was simply afraid of getting herself into trouble, so she only dared to sell a little bit.
Now, with Lin Ye helping her set up the stall, Jiang Xin has fewer worries.
Moreover, even if she took out so much rice, Lin Ye would not ask her where the rice came from.
These past two days, Lin Ye had been the one setting up the stall here, so Lin Ye did not have the goods that Jiang Xin brought. Ask the nosy ones. Where did Jiang Xin get the goods from?
It was just a matter of asking Jiang Xin how much these goods cost, and then starting to sell them. Jiang Xin was very satisfied with this.
At least now, she has someone she can rely on.
With Lin Ye around, even if she sold more things, she was afraid that others would see her and become jealous and envious.
Now she doesn't need to care about all this.
Because she had an extra helper, if someone saw her buying rice at her stall and saw that the person setting up the stall was a man, they would not say anything.
After all, forestry doesn't seem to be so easy to bully.
So, after listening to the old man's words, Jiang Xin decisively decided to sell more rice to him.
Even though I have apologized for breaking the promise these days.
When Jiang Xin asked the old man how much rice he needed, her tone was unusually calm.
After hearing what Jiang Xin said, the old man's eyes instantly lit up. After all, these days, rice is a scarce commodity and it is a high-end product that cannot be bought even with money.
Here, most people eat two kinds of rice mixed together.
If we talk about people who just eat rice, there are simply too few to count.
He originally thought that coming to the market to buy rice was just to try his luck and see if he could find Jiang Xin again.
As a result, Jiang Xin opened her mouth and asked him how much rice he wanted. It was obvious that there was more than enough rice in the family's stock, otherwise Jiang Xin would not dare to ask.
The old man thought about it, then tentatively asked Jiang Xin:
"Hey, how much rice do you have in there?
"I need quite a lot. When I bought the rice that day, it happened to be a family gathering. After my relatives ate your rice, they all said that it tasted a hundred times better than the rice they had at home, so they all wanted to buy some."
"I calculated it before, and it would take about 800 kilograms."
"I just don't know if you have that much stuff in there. If you do, the more the better..."
When the old man finished speaking, his voice became smaller and smaller, and he no longer had any confidence.
After all, rice is such a rare commodity, and he asked for 800 kilograms right away, which was indeed a bit unreasonable.
If, if there are not so many, of course, it is not impossible to compromise.
Four hundred kilograms is also fine, and then the family can share it. It’s a little less, but at least it’s enough to eat for a while.
It's much better than having nothing at all.
After the old man finished speaking, it was Jiang Xin's turn to be shocked.
Jiang Xin was honest, she had not expected that this old man, who looked so low-key, would actually ask for 800 kilograms of rice right away. It would take him forever to eat this!
But on second thought, it's true.
If there are enough people in the family, and some are given to relatives, then wouldn't that amount of rice be needed?
Jiang Xin's face looked calm, but in her heart she was actually calculating how to get the 800 kilograms of rice out of the space and then transport it to the vegetable market.
This is true, and it is a bit difficult for Jiang Xin.
Maybe, maybe she could wait until she rents the warehouse, transport the rice from the space to the warehouse, and then call them to come and get the rice.
In this way, she and Lin Ye would save the trouble of moving the things.
Moreover, apart from anything else, even if she and Lin Ye could move these 800 kilograms of rice, it would still take a lot of effort.
It would be better to let them move the things directly to the warehouse. Then she would just collect the money and not take care of anything else.
Jiang Xin thought for a moment, thought a little, and then said:
"Well, I didn't expect you would need so much rice. I have some, but it will take some time."
"No, please give me your mobile phone number first. When the rice arrives, I will call you and ask you to come pick it up."
After Jiang Xin finished speaking.
She was suddenly stunned. She didn't know whether the old man's house had a landline installed. If not, where could she get a phone number?
But unexpectedly, after the old man heard Jiang Xin asking him for his phone number, he readily gave Jiang Xin a string of numbers.
After he finished speaking, as if he was afraid that Jiang Xin would not remember, he took out a piece of paper and a pen from his pocket, and very neatly wrote the row of numbers on the paper, and then handed it to Jiang Xin.
Originally, he had made plans for what he should do if Jiang Xin said that there was not enough rice.
But unexpectedly, Jiang Xin agreed immediately, saying that she just needed time.
So what if I wait a few days?
After all, as the saying goes, good food is worth a day. The rice sold by Jiang Xin is many times better than that in the supply and marketing cooperative.
He was just testing to see if there was any.
He didn't expect that Jiang Xin actually had so much rice. Of course, he couldn't wait and gave her phone number.
Jiang Xin was still a little confused when she received the phone number, but then she thought, although the old man was dressed simply, he looked very energetic, and with the pair of glasses on his eyes, he looked like a cultured man.
He must be a retired teacher.
The aura he exudes is simply unstoppable.
Jiang Xin guessed in her heart that this old man must have an unusual family background, otherwise he wouldn't have asked to buy 800 kilograms of rice, which was no small amount.
Even nowadays, when rice is cheap, 800 kilograms of rice added together is very expensive. Anyway, an ordinary family would not stock up so much rice at once.
So in this case, it is not surprising to have a telephone at home. After all, the conditions exist.
Jiang Xin took the note and put it carefully in her pocket.
