Huo Junshan said again, "Yang Dasheng, your 30% share is too small. Why don't you just buy the goods and give me the cost price?"
"I'll make everything and bring it to you, then you can go and sell it. How does that sound?"
Yang Dasheng's face fell. Did Brother Huo look down on him?
"Brother Huo, I just want to be with you. I don't want to do it alone. I'm not confident doing it alone, and I don't dare to."
Huo Junshan was so angry he laughed.
He waved his hand: "Whatever you want!"
"Then let's split all the money we had before!"
The two men entered Yang Dasheng's courtyard, sat at the table in the courtyard, and took out all the money.
Huo Junshan counted the money; it totaled 2357 yuan.
The money for orders placed today that haven't been delivered is also here.
Yang Dasheng said, "Brother Huo, deduct the cost; you paid for the bottles and fruit."
Huo Junshan waved his hand: "The bottles don't cost much, and most of the fruit I got from the mountains, so let's not talk about the cost."
He gave Yang Dasheng 710 yuan directly, packed up the rest of the money, and was about to leave.
Yang Dasheng didn't know what to say. He knew that Brother Huo wanted to take care of him and was afraid that he would suffer.
Brother Huo always does this.
He had already decided that he would follow Brother Huo for the rest of his life to make money, to make a lot of money.
Besides Brother Huo, he couldn't find another friend who was so trustworthy and loyal!
Huo Junshan took the remaining money home.
When they reached the village entrance, many older women were playing there, and his mother was there too.
Aunt Niu asked with a smile, "Is that your third son? Did he go to the commune again to buy food for Ningning?"
Huo Junshan saw from afar that they took the opportunity of getting off the bus to put a piece of meat behind the seat.
He walked over to the group of people and picked up the meat, saying, "We're out of meat at home, I'm going to buy some."
Aunt Niu Er said with great envy, "Xiangyun, look at the men in your family, they all love their wives dearly."
Li Xiangyun smiled and said, "Ningning is more pregnant now, she needs to eat well, otherwise how will my grandson grow up and get fat?"
Aunt Niu sighed again, "Your family still has the fourth and fifth sons, but our Yan Hua is about the same age as the third son, and he's still unmarried!"
"Look how anxious you are. Your Yan Hua is so eloquent, what's the rush?"
"Tell me, is there any girl you've taken a fancy to? I'll be your matchmaker and I guarantee I'll find you a good wife."
The two of them often chatted and laughed together; they were used to it.
Aunt Niu Er shook her head.
"I can't control him. I've introduced him to a few women, but he hasn't liked any of them. He either thinks they're ugly or fat."
"well!"
Li Xiangyun could only advise, "This just means that Yan Hua's time hasn't come yet."
As the two were talking, Huo Junshan arrived home.
He smiled as he took the money out of his pocket and placed it in front of his wife.
"Honey, look how much money we made this time!"
Yun Ningyan picked them up and counted them: "So many?"
She never expected to sell so much after only going out twice!
The production speed is too slow to keep up with the demand.
Huo Junshan nodded: "We can do this job, but it's a bit slow. There are too few of us, and the canned food is too heavy."
"We can only take it slowly now. I'll try to find a peeler later."
Actually, he could do it himself if he had the necessary equipment and parts, but there's no electricity at home.
The two talked and made plans.
Meanwhile, Liu Hui had already arrived at her parents' home.
When her younger brother Liu Jun saw her return, he immediately greeted her with a smile: "Sister, why are you back? Did you bring any good food?"
Liu Hui brought back the can of food she hadn't eaten yesterday.
I wanted my younger brother to try it, and I also wanted to talk to him about selling canned food.
She wanted to join too.
Nobody ever complains about having too much money.
Upon hearing that there was something delicious, Liu Jun immediately opened the can and eagerly took a spoonful into his mouth.
"It's delicious! Where did you buy this canned food? It's not easy to find this kind of thing."
Liu Hui smiled and said, "Your brother-in-law bought it, so I brought a bottle back for you to try."
"But I have an idea. Aren't you looking for a job? This canned food job is pretty good."
“This bottle sells for three yuan and fifty cents. Your brother-in-law ordered more than a hundred bottles for the factory at once, saying they were for outstanding workers.”
"Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner, and he said he'd like to buy some more then."
"If we could make our own canned goods and sell them ourselves, wouldn't we earn even more?"
Liu Jun shook his head: "Sister, your idea is good, but I'm worried we won't be able to sell them!"
Liu Hui laughed and said, "How could we not sell them? With your brother-in-law around, we can sell as many as we have. Besides, your brother-in-law knows so many leaders, it won't happen."
She was very confident that her husband, aside from anything else, was well-liked and knew many people.
Upon hearing this, Liu Jun was also tempted and nodded.
"I think that's a good idea, sis. You can't let me do it alone. I've never done it before and I'm scared. You have to do it with me."
In his view, bringing his sister along was equivalent to bringing his brother-in-law along as well.
This provides greater assurance.
Liu Hui smiled happily.
It was as if she could already see a lot of money flying towards her.
The control from above is not as strict now.
The black market is always crowded, and the people there don't wait around to arrest people like they used to.
They all turn a blind eye.
That's why she dared to bring her younger brother along to do business.
The two of them agreed on this, and she left happily.
First, I went to buy fruit, and then brought it over to my parents' house to cook.
Their home is in a residential compound, where there are many people and many eyes. It would be bad if they were discovered.
She went to the black market and bought ten pounds of fruit: apples, pears (the only kinds available on the market right now), and bananas.
However, bananas are not suitable for canning.
She took some fruit and went to her parents' home.
The two of them started making canned goods in the afternoon.
Huo Junshan and Yun Ningyan started cooking after lunch.
He doesn't plan to go out tomorrow either; he intends to stay home and do more things these next couple of days.
We can sell them for a few days then.
This time, he prepared two pots at once, so he could boil them together and make more than a hundred bottles at a time, which would speed things up considerably.
The pot he prepared was very large; he found it in his spatial dimension. He built two large stoves in the space using mud bricks and also brought in a lot of firewood from outside.
He and Yun Ningyan peeled the fruit; the apples were the slowest, the peaches were a little better, and the oranges were the fastest.
He was worried that his wife would get tired: "Yanyan, you peel the oranges! I'll take care of the apples and peaches."
Yun Ningyan nodded: "Alright then! I'll peel the orange first, take my time, no rush."
The two of them sat in the space and worked.
