Chapter 35 Moving Out
Ruan Fu heard what the other party said just now, but she didn't want to pay any attention to it at all. She came here to do mulberry leaf business to make money, not to quarrel with others every day.
Besides, Ruan Lanxiang has no brains at all. She is now focused on buying mulberry leaves at a high price just to show her power. But she has no idea that she has already reached an exclusive agreement with the knitting factory and other people's mulberry leaves cannot be delivered.
In other words, the more money Ruan Lanxiang invests now, the greater the loss will be later.
Old Mrs. Ruan has always valued money more than her life. Ruan Fu wanted to know whether she could bear it when all the money was lost.
Thinking of this, she also put up a paper sign next to it, which still read that mulberry leaves were five cents per pound.
Someone came over carrying a basket, then hurried away, complaining before leaving, "Girl, you won't get good mulberry leaves like this. The ones next door are six cents!"
Ruan Fu smiled and didn't explain much.
Unfortunately, Ruan Lanxiang was not the type to quit while she was ahead. When she saw Ruan Fu was silent, she thought that she was afraid of her.
He sneered, "Some people, once they make a little money, don't take others seriously. You'll end up crying someday."
Ruan Fu glanced at her and decided not to indulge her.
"Aunt, selling mulberry leaves does make money, but if no one buys them, they'll just be garbage. I'm afraid the blow will be so great you won't even be able to cry."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Ruan Lanxiang thought the other party didn't want to get rich, and her face darkened with anger. "Little bitch, do you think you are the only one who can sell it? I tell you, I will go to the textile factory tomorrow too. Since they accepted yours, they will definitely take mine too. If you don't believe me, let's wait and see!"
"Okay, then we'll see."
Ruan Fu smiled coldly and was too lazy to talk any more.
In fact, she has made a lot of money recently. If she really wants to compete with the other party, she can just raise the purchase price. However, price fluctuations can easily make villagers suspicious. If they really think they have made a lot of money from the price difference, it will be more troublesome.
There are a lot of mulberry leaves around Lotus Village. No matter how much money Ruan Hongxing is willing to spend, it is impossible to collect them all. If she spends more time, she will definitely be able to collect 100 kilograms.
"People charge six cents a pound over there, and you charge five cents here. Who would be willing to sell to you?"
Aunt Hu came over with a sarcastic tone.
She had been jealous of Ruan Fu's money before, and now that she had the chance, she was ready to mock her.
Ruan Fu refused to give in at all and immediately retorted, "Auntie, my price has always been this. If you don't want to sell it, you don't have to. There's no need to give me orders."
Aunt Hu didn't expect this little girl to be so ignorant and was immediately furious.
"Sister Fu, you are a good person. I will sell you the mulberry leaves."
A tender female voice sounded. The little girl's name was Yaya. She had been picking mulberry leaves for herself since Ruan Fu's first day in this business.
Ruan Fu patted her little head and stuffed a piece of candy into her hand, "Thank you, Yaya."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people around him reacted immediately.
"And me, Sister Fu, your candy is so delicious, I'll give you mine too."
"I have it too, I have it too, Sister Fu, don't forget me!"
The people who spoke were the Boy Scouts who had picked mulberry leaves for Ruan Fu before. The children were so kind that Ruan Fu felt warm in her heart.
"Okay, okay, I want all your mulberry leaves. Take your time."
Aunt Hu snorted coldly, "What's so great about it?"
The next second, she saw her dog, Gou Dan'er, also secretly trying to give mulberry leaves to Ruan Fu. She immediately became furious, walked over, snatched the basket, slapped him twice on the butt, and scolded him harshly, "Are you stupid? You have to sell things to such a black-hearted person!"
After saying that, he glanced at Ruan Fu and strode towards Ruan Lanxiang.
The goose got beaten for no apparent reason and started crying out "Wow".
Ruan Fu couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she peeled a piece of candy and stuffed it into the other person's mouth.
"It's okay. I won't sell Sister Fu this time. There will be another chance next time."
She knew that people like Aunt Hu only cared about money. When Ruan Lanxiang refused to accept the money, she would probably turn to her for help. She would not be nice to her then.
Ruan Fu had a good reputation, so even though her price was one cent lower than the other shop, she still managed to collect all the mulberry leaves for the next day, it just took a little longer.
Chen Qiang came to pick up his niece at the agreed time.
As soon as I arrived at the village entrance, I saw Ruan Fu weighing mulberry leaves, paying for them, and busying herself non-stop.
He couldn't help but marvel at it. The last time he saw Ruan Fu was at her mother's funeral. The little girl was so young that she didn't even know how to shed tears.
In the blink of an eye, she has grown into a capable young lady and has learned how to do business.
He sighed sincerely, "Afu, if your mother could see you like this, she would be so happy."
Ruan Fu looked up suddenly and her face immediately broke into a smile when she saw the person coming.
"Uncle!" She immediately jumped over with a smile, "I have packed my luggage and can leave today."
"When I came here, your grandma was still nagging me, saying that she must take you back today." Chen Qiang saw the bicycle in her hand and looked a little puzzled. "Where did this bicycle come from?"
Ruan Fu blinked. "I borrowed it. I recently delivered mulberry leaves to a knitting factory, and a friend found out and lent it to me temporarily."
Chen Qiang was secretly shocked when he heard this. In this day and age, who would lend such an expensive bicycle to someone so casually? How wealthy must the other person be?
Where did Afu meet such a person?
My niece is so beautiful, could she have met someone with ulterior motives?
Ruan Fu had no idea of Chen Qiang's worries. She smiled and urged, "Uncle, let's go."
My grandmother's home is more than two hours' walk from Lotus Village. When I was a child, my mother often took me back to her home.
Ruan Fu remembered the general direction. Seeing Chen Qiang pushing his bicycle in the opposite direction, she hurriedly asked, "Uncle, are we going the wrong way?"
As soon as she said this, she found it a little funny. How could someone get the direction of their home wrong? There was only one explanation.
"Uncle, have you moved?"
Chen Qiang nodded, looking very happy.
"I made some money working as a bricklayer a few years ago. Now I live with your grandmother on the outskirts of the county town. Come on, your grandmother is looking forward to seeing you."
Although the two families didn't visit each other often, Ruan Fu had heard some news before.
My uncle got married a few years ago, but the woman had a miserable life and died of a terminal illness a year later.
So he lives with his grandmother now. I thought he was still in his hometown, but I didn't expect him to move near the county town. It seems that he has made a lot of money in recent years.
I have the impression that my grandmother takes great care of her granddaughter.
In her previous life, when she married Lai Da, her grandmother held her hand with tears in her eyes.
"Afu, your mother passed away early, and your grandmother was unable to take care of you. You have suffered all these years."
No matter how great the grievance was, it was over. Now Ruan Fu could not wait to see her real relatives.
