"Thirty pieces." Huang Deqiao gestured, "That's my relative. I only want this much for the goods."
Thirty cartons and nearly three hundred packs of Daqianmen. Even the county supply and marketing cooperative couldn't produce that many at one time. It was indeed a large amount.
According to Huang Deqiao's price, the purchase price is only 20 cents per bag, and the selling price is 50 cents. If all are sold, you can make 90 yuan.
But it wasn't that easy to sell all three hundred packs of cigarettes quickly. Jiang Lin sat down on a nearby stool and said, "Brother, tell me, do you want to buy it with me? Or what?"
"My relative said this stuff is troublesome and needs to be taken all at once. I'm afraid I won't be able to sell it all. I can't finish it all by myself, and I'm busy with a lot of things to do. I'll take it and you sell it. We'll split it fifty-fifty." Huang Deqiao smiled. "Is that nice?"
He was just planning to sit back and reap the benefits while letting Jiang Lin do the selling and taking the risk.
Jiang Lin hesitated for only a moment before directly refusing: "No, even if I were to help, it would be reasonable, but with such a large quantity, I would have to ask my brothers for help. They also need to eat."
"So what do you have in mind? Brother Jiang, I'm very optimistic about you, so I came to you to talk to you about this. I didn't ask anyone else."
"How about this, you take ten yuan, and for seventy yuan you help me get the goods, and you don't have to bear any risks afterwards."
Huang Deqiao laughed twice, but didn't quite agree with this suggestion. Even if they made ten cents per bag, Jiang Lin could still make thirty. He could not make even five cents per bag by helping to get the goods.
"That's fine," Jiang Lin said, knowing what he was struggling with. "I don't want you to spend any money or take any risks. I'll just take ten yuan. It's not a small amount."
Huang Deqiao: "I know you want to sell it. Brother, there are several people in my family who need to eat. How about twenty? I won't be jealous no matter how much you make. Is that okay?"
"no."
Huang Deqiao was a very cunning businessman. Jiang Lin had met him several times, and giving him ten dollars was already a lot. Moreover, Jiang Lin had never met his so-called relatives, so he didn't believe that Huang Deqiao didn't take a commission from the sale price.
Finally, Huang Deqiao compromised: "Okay, come and pick up the goods in two days."
After finishing his talk, Jiang Lin went to the supply and marketing cooperative and saw some girls sitting together at a counter. He had an idea and walked over after they left.
The saleswoman at the counter was a young girl. Her eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Lin: "Comrade, are you buying something for your family?"
Jiang Lin nodded vaguely and asked, "What did the women buy just now?"
He was quite happy when he saw those female comrades leave.
"This," the salesman brought out a flat, round iron box, "is vanishing cream."
"Take two cans."
Even after selling something, the salary wouldn't change. The salesperson was concerned about Jiang Lin. Such a handsome man was willing to spend two bottles of vanishing cream. It would be a lie for the salesperson to say he had no other thoughts: "Is this for your sister? Or is it for your aunt?"
These days it's quite bold to ask someone directly if they have a partner, so the salesperson had to try it in a roundabout way.
Jiang Lin finished paying and said, "I bought this for my boyfriend."
The salesperson's smile froze.
Jiang Lin returned home with two bottles of vanishing cream. His grandmother called him over again and gave him a handkerchief that she had embroidered herself. It was a light blue silk silk with green dragonflies and pink lotus flowers embroidered on it.
"What's wrong?"
"To Su Zhiqing."
Jiang Lin also thought that the handkerchief was beautiful and matched Su Yuhe perfectly. He grinned and said, "Thank you, Grandma."
Before taking the cigarette, Jiang Lin went to wait for Su Yuhe.
There were many people at work, but today they were weeding the cornfield, so everyone was squatting. Jiang Lin found Su Yuhe, who glanced at him and then lowered her head to weed again.
This man was brave enough today and went straight to the field.
If Jiang Lin hadn't been unable to find Su Yuhe, he wouldn't have come here.
"Cough cough." Jiang Lin clenched his fist and put it to his lips and coughed twice. Seeing that Su Yuhe didn't react, he took out the things, put them next to her, looked around and left.
Su Yuhe couldn't see what was inside the thing wrapped in old newspaper. After the person left, she took off her gloves and opened it.
Wow, two bottles of vanishing cream wrapped in an exquisitely embroidered handkerchief.
Su Yuhe hummed, smiled, and carefully wrapped the things and put them away.
She had never thought that the handkerchief was embroidered by Jiang Lin's grandmother. She thought he had bought it outside. Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth drooped and she muttered, "I don't know how many women he has coaxed to buy even this."
After receiving something from someone, she had to reciprocate, so she made shepherd's purse and pork dumplings the next day.
She dug the shepherd's purse from the ground and spent a long time washing it before wrapping it.
The only work left to do in the fields was applying fertilizer and weeding. The tillage had been completed long ago, so Jiang Lin didn't need to come and help Su Yuhe with the work.
Su Yuhe ran to the fifth-level land on the next mountain to find him.
Jiang Lin was a little surprised that she came over and was stunned for a moment: "Why are you here?"
The fifth-grade land could not grow crops, so Jiang Lin, a strong laborer, was assigned to this place under the pretext of reforming him.
Su Yuhe said with a stern face: "I made a few too many dumplings."
Jiang Lin hadn't eaten anything she cooked for many days. When it entered his mouth, it tasted more delicious than anything else.
He didn't dare to speak much. While eating, he secretly glanced at Su Yuhe. The latter was looking at the scenery on the hillside and didn't notice that others were looking at her.
When they were almost done eating, Jiang Lin said again, "I'm sorry about what happened that night."
Su Yuhe looked back at him and said, "I forgive you."
Jiang Lin was delighted: "That dress..."
He was talking about the clothes Su Yuhe gave him that night.
"What clothes? I don't know."
Looking at Jiang Lin's surprised eyes, Su Yuhe suddenly laughed out loud after walking out of the field.
Jiang Lin thought that his anger would subside when she brought him food, but this gave him an even greater headache. He slapped the tree trunk with his palm. If possible, he really wanted to go back to that night and slap himself twice.
Su Yuhe cooked food in different ways and sent it to Jiang Lin, but she pretended to be stupid when Jiang Lin talked about clothes.
The place where the two met was changed to the fifth-class place where Jiang Lin usually worked.
Just after delivering something that day, she met Lu Jianrong. It was really a narrow road for enemies to meet. Su Yuhe rolled her eyes in her heart.
Lu Jianrong stood in front of her and said, "Yuhe, I've been looking for you for a long time. Where have you been?"
"Where do I need to report to you?"
"I saw it all. You went to meet that second-rate guy. Do you know what kind of family background he has? You went to be with a scoundrel!"
"What's the point? I'm better than you anyway." Su Yuhe sneered, "If you have time to stare at me, you might as well go sleep with your boyfriend."
"What are you talking about?" Lu Jianrong's face flushed. "How could you, a girl, say such things? You must have learned it from that scoundrel. Break up with him quickly."
Su Yuhe frowned: "Who are you to tell me this?"
"We're going to get married in the future. My parents and your parents have already agreed."
