Chapter 009: Confidence Increased
Su Wan opened the lid, and the fragrance immediately attracted other people who were going to work in the factory, and everyone gathered here.
Seeing that there were people watching, Su Wan was not stingy and gave each of them a piece to try.
The braised pig offal has long lost its unpleasant smell, and is replaced by a fragrance that tastes particularly good.
"Eighty cents a pound, right?" The first older woman who came over immediately said, "Big sister, give me three pounds first."
"Okay."
Su Wan immediately picked up the meat and poured out all the soup. He quickly weighed three pounds for his elder sister and gave her two more pieces of pig lungs and two spoonfuls of soup.
"Give me two pounds."
"I want one pound."
"I want five pounds, please give me more soup!"
It is really difficult to eat meat in this day and age. Eighty cents per pound is actually not expensive for people working in these factories.
The basic salary for people working in factories is around 50 yuan. There is a lot of work in the factories in Guangdong Province, and if the performance is good, you can get at least 80 or 90 yuan per month, and most people can get around 100 yuan. Skilled workers can earn 100 or 200 yuan a month. Meat coupons are limited, and the price on the black market is high, so it is very cost-effective to buy some cooked braised meat, and the braised meat is so delicious.
They can definitely afford the braised meat at 80 cents per pound.
There are three large factories here with more than 30,000 employees. She didn't have enough braised meat to sell and it was all sold out in less than half an hour.
Su Wan stuffed all the money into a black bag. He didn't know what time it was, but the working hours of the three factories were different, with a difference of about one and a half hours.
By the time others discovered it, it was already sold out.
Those who didn’t buy asked, “Will you still sell it tomorrow?”
"Come on, I'll sell it here tomorrow morning too."
Everything was sold out, and Su Wan was in a really good mood.
She made assurances to the others, while also wondering whether she should buy more to sell.
The stainless steel bucket Wang Bin bought for her had wheels. She was so tired that she just dragged the wheels and walked away. She planned to buy more ingredients for braised dishes and rock sugar, and buy two more stainless steel buckets. The three factories had different working hours, so she could sell here for an hour and a half.
Guangdong Province was the first place to implement reform and opening up, so rock sugar and aniseed are still relatively easy to buy.
She didn't spend the bag of change she had on her, and would count it after she got back. The money she had for buying things now was the same as the money she had used before. She bought a stainless steel bucket, which was three cents more expensive than what Wang Bin bought, and some aniseed, rock sugar and soy sauce for eight yuan. She also bought some liquor. After buying everything, she returned to her original place.
After waiting for almost three hours, Wang Bin and his friends finally arrived.
Su Wan smiled at them, took out four packs of cigarettes from his pocket, and handed two packs to each of them.
"I'm sorry to bother you guys lately. All the braised meat is sold out, but I left a bowl for you at home. Come over and get it later!"
"Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Wang Bin thanked her but still held the cigarette and said, "Sister-in-law, don't buy cigarettes next time. They are too expensive."
A pack of Daqianmen cigarettes cost 3.5 yuan, and they felt bad about holding them.
Su Wan smiled and replied, "Just this time, Comrade Wang Bin, did you buy any pig offal today?"
"Sister-in-law asked me to buy some pig offal and see if there was a pig head. There were 80 kilograms of pig offal, and I still got 8.5 yuan. Sister-in-law asked me to buy some pig blood, so I bought 20 kilograms and got 50 yuan. There were 21 kilograms of pig heads, and I got 6 yuan. The total was 15 yuan."
After Wang Bin finished reading, Su Wan took out another five yuan and gave it to him, "Keep ordering the same thing for me tomorrow. Thank you for your hard work!"
"Don't be polite, sister-in-law. Let's go back quickly!"
After putting the things in the back, the car quickly drove towards the troops.
After returning home, Su Wan brought the meat to Wang Bin. The first thing he did was to close the door and then count the money at home.
They were all just a few cents or a dollar, and she counted them twice to be sure.
Eighty-seven yuan and thirty cents.
After deducting the cost, she made at least 70 yuan.
Su Wan was so excited that she could hardly speak. Her fighting spirit was instantly high. She put all the one and five yuan coins into the box, prepared to cook some lunch and then continued to work.
She started washing the meat without even taking a break at noon.
A big pig's head surprised the sisters-in-law in the yard. What happened to Captain Chen's family? Why did they buy such a big pig's head?
But the people living next to her didn't have a good relationship with her, so they didn't come forward.
Su Wan didn't care what they thought. She washed from twelve o'clock to almost nine o'clock in the evening, ate something casually, and continued to braise the meat.
The next morning, Wang Bin and Xu Weiguo helped her lift the two large barrels into the car and headed towards the county.
Still going to the old place, Su Wan had a good reputation from the previous day, so there was no need for him to call out and a large group of people gathered around him.
The older sisters all said, "Xiao Su, your braised pig offal is so delicious. My husband asked me to buy a few more pounds today."
"Yes, my grandson ate two bowls of rice yesterday, so I have to buy an extra pound today."
"Give me five pounds."
"I want to buy more today, too. I want three pounds."
"Don't worry, everyone. Today's meat also includes braised pig's head, which tastes just as good as pork."
Su Wanlu’s meat is delicious and everyone trusts her.
Everyone was crowded around, and the security guards on the side came forward enviously and smelled it several times. It was really fragrant.
This time, it took almost fifty minutes and both large buckets of braised meat were sold out.
The cloth bag she made last night was bulging with money.
The security guard looked at Su Wan enviously and said with a smile, "You're doing quite well in business!"
"Thank you for letting me set up a stall here. I also packed a portion for you two. I hope you don't mind. You can take it home and heat it up and eat it."
She took a look yesterday and saw two security guards here, and there were still the same two today, so she thought that these two security guards should be on duty in the morning.
The security guard was a little embarrassed, "How can I feel so embarrassed..."
"Don't be polite, big brother. It's not worth much. I'll have to trouble you guys to keep an eye on it for me when I'm here."
The two security guards also understood what she meant. They weighed the braised meat in their hands. Although it was still juiced, it weighed at least three pounds.
"Don't worry, we'll definitely keep an eye on you."
With the security guard's words, Su Wan felt relieved.
She waited at the factory gate for three hours before Wang Bin and his men came and took her back to the army.
After returning home, Wang Bin and Xu Weiguo carried the pig offal, pig head and pig blood she bought to her door. Su Wan still served them a bowl of braised meat before closing the shop and calculating the payment.
This time, there were two big buckets, and he made a total of 128.6 yuan, which greatly increased Su Wan's confidence.
In two days, she earned two hundred yuan. Apart from the capital, she made a lot of money.
She made money every day after that. Twenty days passed in a flash. One day, she was counting money in the house when there was a knock on the door.
Knock knock knock...
The knock on the door startled Su Wan, who had just finished counting the money. He then said, "Wait a minute."
She opened the door and saw Chen Yuan, who had been out for 22 days, standing in front of her, his eyes full of confusion. "Why did you buy so much pig offal and pig heads?"
