The people around also said that anyone who doubted it should just not buy it. They believed it anyway.
At this point, Lin Guoqing won.
Chen Chunhua had discussed this with him when they were slaughtering the chickens. Since the chickens were raised by farmers themselves, there was no question of whether they needed to be inspected or not. The best thing would be to see the live chickens traded, but conditions did not allow that now.
Slaughtering and cleaning the chicken is much more convenient for customers, but food safety is also a challenge. Chen Chunhua thought that someone would definitely raise questions, so she decided to deal with the matter all at once to avoid people causing trouble again and again.
They only need to explain it once. Later, anyone who questions it should provide evidence, or just don't buy it to avoid trouble.
Many people ordered chickens, and Lin Guoqing also honestly said that they didn't have that many old hens. The remaining chickens at home were basically six or seven months old, but they were also good chickens. They could choose to take them or not.
Most people still wanted it, but some people thought about it and didn't decide. Lin Guoqing didn't care either, because there were only a limited number of chickens.
Originally, we had 14 hens and three roosters, five pullets and nine pullets. Later, a dozen chicks hatched, not even two weeks old, so we don't count them.
We ate an old hen at home and just sold another one. If we want to sell the next one, we have to leave behind the four children’s pet chickens - Little Bad Guy, Speedy, Glutton, Little Yellow and Little White.
Lin Guoqing felt a toothache when he thought about this. Why did Lin Shumei want to monopolize two chickens by herself?
Anyway, with that being said, there were only seven hens left to sell. Chen Chunhua had specifically told him not to overdo it when accepting orders.
There weren't that many people buying chickens in one night, but he still received an order for 4 chickens and sold all the fish in the bucket.
I left a fish for Lao Shi. He packed his things with the meat coupons and the Mao coupons and ran happily on the way home. You couldn't tell at all that he was a man who hadn't slept all night.
Today's bucket of fish brought in about sixteen or seventeen dollars, and with the mushrooms and chicken, I have twenty dollars in my pocket now! I can get four chickens tomorrow!
Lin Guoqing felt that he had seen the tricycle waving at him!
It was just that Chen Chunhua was a little tired of butchering chickens at night. She even waited until after dinner to start working, fearing that Liang Shengdi might have evil intentions.
However, Mrs. Liang had indulged her craving for braised pork today, so she temporarily put aside her greed for the chicken and even helped Chen Chunhua pluck the feathers. Lin Guoqing squatted beside them and chatted with them.
"Hey, Chunhua, I think after we sell this batch of chickens, we can buy a tricycle. Then, whether it's seafood, poultry eggs, or vegetables, we can put them on the tricycle and ride them over. We don't have to carry them all the way with our backs exhausted, and we can't carry much."
Chen Chunhua smiled as she shed her hair, "You're right, but if you really take so many things with you at once, you'll either have to bring back half of them, or get caught on the way and accused of dumping them and selling them."
Judging from Lin Guoqing's behavior, he is no longer a small vendor. He is just about to go to the vegetable market to grab a formal shop.
Lin Guoqing grinned, "Then bring less, hehe. I think fresh fish sells pretty well too. From now on, we can sell fresh fish in autumn, fish balls in spring, vegetables in summer, and chickens and ducks in winter..."
He counted on his fingers, imagining the future, and then Liang Shengdi retorted, "You mean I have to spend half the year in the river?"
Lin Guoqing: ...No, he didn’t mean that.
…
The four Lin children had been very nervous about their pet chickens these past few days, fearing they would be taken away by their parents to be slaughtered. Although they occasionally cared for the newborn chicks, Lin Guoqing and Shen Chunhua had told them from the beginning that they were going to be sold. They should not cry and complain that they couldn't eat them.
So the most precious ones are still the original five, but fortunately, their parents don’t seem to have any interest in these five chickens. Chen Chunhua even slaughtered a rooster and didn’t take their hens.
There was no way. A customer insisted on having a chicken, but she said there were no hens left. Someone said a rooster would be fine.
Anyway, there were three roosters at home, so selling one wouldn't be a big problem. So I just slaughtered it.
Chen Chunhua and Lin Guoqing sat together and counted the money one by one. "Two hundred and five thirty-one, two hundred and five thirty-two, two hundred... two hundred and forty-nine... plus the money for tomorrow's eggs and mushrooms, it should be... three hundred and thirteen twenty-eight!"
"Three hundred and thirteen and twenty-eight yuan! Chunhua! We have three hundred and thirteen and twenty-eight yuan!" Lin Guoqing tried to lower his voice, but he couldn't suppress his excitement. "We can afford a tricycle now!"
Chen Chunhua was smiling so hard that her eyes were blurred. Today was the last day of October, and they had saved up 300 yuan, mainly thanks to the group of chickens.
"Yeah, don't you have to take a bus to the provincial capital tomorrow? Ask Ye Juncai if you can go back with him and buy it directly. Then you can ride the tricycle back."
"That's definitely how it's done!" Lin Guoqing nodded vigorously. After a moment of excitement, he suddenly became a little nervous. "I have to bring so much money with me. Will I lose it?"
Chen Chunhua glared at him angrily, "Are you not bringing it with you because you're afraid of losing it? Then you're not going to buy a tricycle?"
"No, I have to buy a tricycle."
"That's incredible!" Chen Chunhua felt that this man's brain seemed to freeze from time to time. "You should bring some more cloth and cotton coupons tomorrow."
Lin Guoqing didn't understand why he suddenly brought this thing, "What for?"
"Make clothes! Big brother! The Chinese New Year is just two months away, and there are so many people in our family! Shouldn't we start making clothes sooner?"
When the spring flowers bloomed in the middle of the month, I started asking Lao Shi to help me collect cotton coupons. Now I have exactly 10 kilograms of cotton coupons and about 15 meters of cloth coupons, which is a stack of miscellaneous items.
