Chapter 97 Blacklisted by the Food Processing Factory
After Lu Xiang confirmed again and again, the people from the food processing factory insisted on the price of twenty yuan per truck and refused to give in.
He also said, "As long as you can pack it up and take it away, you can get as much as you want." Lu Xiang gave him twenty yuan.
The man was very happy and in a good mood after taking the money.
Since that was the case, Lu Xiang and the others had no choice but to start stacking. Coincidentally, Fu Qinhui was there too. The two of them started to pile up. A normal tricycle wouldn't be able to fit more than a dozen bags of rice bran.
But after they set up the support points, they piled up layer by layer to a height of more than two meters.
Even people from the food factory came out to watch the fun.
Normally, even if someone used a tractor to load the bags, they would be lucky if they could load thirty or forty bags.
Among the nearby villages, only Baijia Village has a tractor. It is so precious that ordinary people have no chance to touch it.
The food factory took advantage of this rule and used to buy rice bran for one yuan a bag, so they could sell it at a higher price. This is the first time I have seen such a large stack!
But they packed a full fifty-four.
If you do the math, I feel so sorry for them.
The man who had just spoken wanted to regret it. But the words were already out of his mouth, and he could only watch with a painful look on his face as they loaded so much food onto the truck. His heart was bleeding!
After they left, the warehouse was already half empty. Moreover, the lower floors were filled with expensive feed such as soybeans and cypress.
Lu Xiang spent two dollars to buy fifty meters of thick hemp rope and tied it up carefully. She still had to pay attention to safety on the road.
They pushed the cart all the way back. With such a heavy cart, they couldn't even see the road ahead. Lu Xiang would run back and forth from time to time to look. Fortunately, there were few cars and people on the village roads.
Sometimes I meet enthusiastic fellow villagers who can help me out.
This was much heavier than I'd imagined, like moving a mountain. The sweat on Lu Xiang's forehead never stopped. Her clothes were soaked with sweat, wet and dry.
Finally they were almost at the village, but Lu Xiang's legs felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't move at all.
Lu Xiang said to Fu Qinhui, "Wait here for a moment. I'll go get my dad and the others to help."
Fu Qinhui agreed.
Lu Xiang immediately ran to the village and saw Fu Erge and Fu Dage. Seeing her in a hurry, they hurriedly asked what happened.
Lu Xiang asked them both for help.
Lu Xiang is now a celebrity in Dayu Village. When she moves, many people come out to join in the fun. When Lu's father and the others came out, they saw a mountain of feed in the distance!
Hurry over.
Many people came out, some pushing from behind, some pushing from the sides. Suddenly, things got much easier. Even the women who had come out to watch followed ahead, pointing the way!
They arrived at the pig pen and began unloading the large tricycle full of feed. With strength in numbers, they were able to unload the mountain of feed.
Lu Xiang wiped the sweat off her face and hurriedly thanked everyone.
The people who came out to help felt a little embarrassed by her thanks and said, "It's nothing."
There was also curiosity. Aunt Hong asked, "Xiangxiang, why did you buy so much?" The unloaded rice bran and bean curd filled another empty pigpen. This stuff wasn't cheap, so how could she buy it as if it were free?
Lu Xiang then told the story about the twenty-one cars.
When everyone heard this, they laughed and said, "They should be punished." The food processing factory relied on their ownership of the village brigade to demand exorbitant prices. They thought the villagers were honest and there was nothing they could do about them. This time they had a chance to teach them a lesson, otherwise the loss would be in vain!
But they don’t know how a small tricycle can carry so many things.
Aunt Hong said, "You guys are getting a great deal." A bag cost less than 40 cents.
Lu Xiang smiled. Aside from the effort involved in pushing these things, she felt quite happy. However, she could only take advantage of this once. She would probably be blacklisted by the grain processing factory.
Lu Xiang was exhausted, the sweat stuck to her body and made her uncomfortable, so she wanted to go back to take a shower and change her clothes.
After buying twenty yuan worth of grain and two meters of thick hemp rope, he only had twenty-eight yuan left. According to Liu Pang, the piglets had already been vaccinated at birth. With food and water, there was no need for anything else.
But the piglets are still small, so it is recommended that they boil the feed before feeding it.
Mother Lu has already started the pot and will feed them their first meal here soon.
Lu Xiang and the others had left, but the others were still gathered in the pigpen. It wouldn't be long before everyone in the village knew that Lu Xiang had bought so much staple food at such a low price!
When Lu Xiang returned home, if she hadn't always been fond of cleanliness, she would have wanted to lie down on the bed and take a nap. She was so tired that she couldn't even lift her legs.
Fu Qinhui soon followed him into the house.
Seeing that he was also sweating and his clothes were soaked, Lu Xiang felt a little embarrassed. Lu Xiang said, "You wash first?" She wanted to go out.
Although the two were already together, it was still a bit embarrassing to see each other naked in broad daylight.
Fu Qinhui said: "Let's go together."
This made Lu Xiang's cheeks even redder.
…
Feeling refreshed after taking a shower, Lu Xiang said, "Next time I'll get a metal pipe at home and make a simple shower room!" It would also save her from having to carry a basin of water into the house to take a shower every day, which always felt unpleasant.
Fu Qinhui said, "Okay, I'll go ask them how to make it later. I'll buy the materials."
Lu Xiang said, "I have money here." Fu Qinhui had received his last paycheck. He gave his mother-in-law fifteen yuan, and the rest was for the young couple.
The Fu family has never split up, it has always been this way. If we earn money together, why would we ask our mother-in-law for money?
But Fu Qinhui kept track of all the canned food and soda he bought for the family these days, and at the end of the month, he gave it to his mother-in-law, leaving him with only one dollar. Fu Qinhui gave it to Lu Xiang, but she didn't take it, so she considered it as money for Fu Qinhui.
He always thought about giving it to Lu Xianghua.
Fu Qinhui said: "It's not difficult to do this, but there seems to be no empty space at home." The surroundings have been built up to store some daily necessities and the like, so it seems very luxurious to free up a room for taking a bath.
Lu Xiang said: "If only we could separate."
The Fu family was already wealthy, and the house they built was quite large, but after the couple got married, they each had children. It was okay during the day when there were fewer people around!
At night, we have to make duck necks in the yard, and there are many people. The children have all come back and are running around, so the space becomes a bit narrow.
It was a bit hard to turn around, but the Fu family might not be willing to split up, and Lu Xiang and her family were the youngest. It was embarrassing to say this.
Fu Qinhui said: "It's not difficult."
Lu Xiang knew that Fu Qinhui didn't like to talk much on weekdays, but once he spoke, his words were meaningful.
Lu Xiang immediately said, "Do you have any good ideas?" She looked at Fu Qinhui.
Fu Qinhui said: "When you have children in the future, this place will no longer be able to accommodate you, so you can move out."
