Chapter 178 Asking Mr. Xu to ask for help in selling walnuts
"Fuwa, long time no see!"
Bai Wei looked at the chubby Fuwa in front of her and pinched his little face with a smile.
Fuwa took out a White Rabbit candy from his pocket and handed it to Bai Wei.
"Sister, give it to you."
When Xiao Meng saw the White Rabbit milk candy, her eyes were immediately attracted.
She also liked to eat this candy, but in the He family, girls were not allowed to eat this candy at all.
"Okay, thank you."
Bai took the candy with a smile, turned around and handed it to Xiao Meng.
Xiao Meng was stunned for a moment, then finally took the candy with a sweet smile.
"Thank you, Master."
"Pretty sister, are you here to get your hair cut today? My grandpa is here! Let him cut your hair!"
Fuwa didn't mind Bai Wei giving the candy he gave her to Xiao Meng, but instead took Bai Wei's hand and walked into the store.
There are no customers in the barber shop right now.
Xu Sigui was sweeping up the loose hair on the ground with a broom. It looked like he had just had his hair cut.
"Grandpa!"
As soon as Fuwa called, Xu Sigui raised his head and saw Bai Wei walking into the store.
"Little girl! Come on, come on, sit down. It's been a month, and your hair hasn't grown much."
Xu Sigui looked at Bai Wei's hair and thought she wanted a haircut.
Bai Wei waved his hands, "Master, I'm not here to get a haircut today. I want to ask you for a favor."
In this county town, the only person Bai Wei knew was Xu Sigui.
"Help? What help? Just tell me!"
Xu Sigui smiled.
Bai Wei had saved Fuwa's life before, and the whole family remembers this favor.
"Here, old man, please try it."
Bai Wei took out the honey walnuts from the military cloth bag and gave one to Xu Sigui.
Xu Sigui took a look and saw the honey walnut in his hand exuding a sweet fragrance. He was about to eat it when Fuwa jumped up anxiously.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, I want to eat! I want to eat!"
Looking at Fuwa's anxious look, Xu Sigui smiled indulgently and handed him the honey walnuts in his hand.
As soon as Fuwa got it, he took a bite of it immediately.
The chubby little face chewed and chewed, and the dark little eyes lit up instantly, and the little hands clapped hard.
"It's delicious! So delicious! Grandpa, it's delicious!"
It can be seen that Fuwa really likes it. He poked his little hand, ran to Bai Wei's side, and asked in a low voice.
"Pretty sister, can I have another one?"
Bai Wei knew that Fuwa was a little gluttonous cat. Looking at his chubby little body, she knew that he liked to eat, and he was spoiled at home.
It's also because the Xu family is well-off. In this era, ordinary families really can't raise such a fat boy.
"Of course."
When Bai Wei opened the box, he originally wanted Fuwa to take a few more, but he didn't expect the little guy to only take one obediently.
"Thank you, beautiful sister!"
After getting it, Fuwa did not eat it himself, but ran to Xu Sigui's side and tiptoed to hand him the only honey walnut in his hand.
"Grandpa, you eat! You eat!"
Seeing this scene, Xiao Meng couldn't help but think of her younger brother.
He Chengcai has always been a person who only eats alone. In his world, the word "sharing" does not exist at all.
Although Fuwa is still young, he knows how to give the best food to his grandfather.
"Okay, Grandpa, try it."
Xu Sigui did not reject Fuwa's kindness and took the honey walnut and tasted it.
The crispy and crunchy taste is just right.
"How is this made? It's really delicious!"
He was reluctant to swallow it all in one gulp, and instead took several bites in his mouth before swallowing it.
"I made this honey walnut myself. If you like it, I'll give you a box."
Bai Wei handed over the honey walnuts in her hand.
Looking at the box of honey walnuts, Xu Sigui took it without hesitation.
Fuwa, who was standing beside him, looked at Xu Sigui with longing. He also smiled and gave Fuwa a handful of honey walnuts.
"Thank you, Grandpa!"
Fuwa put the honey walnuts in the small pocket on the front of his clothes.
The little guy usually likes to eat snacks and is spoiled at home, so we specially made a small pocket on the front of his clothes.
He carefully put it into his pocket, walked to a chair nearby, sat down, and started to eat with a smacking sound. His two chubby legs were shaking, and it was obvious that he was eating very happily.
"I didn't give you this for nothing. Just tell me what you want me to do for you. I will do whatever I can for you!"
Xu Sigui accepted Bai Wei's gift generously, knowing that she wanted a favor from him.
This little girl is smart and generous in her dealings with others. She is really likable.
What a pity...
She just has a lover.
Xu Sigui was thinking about Song Qinian who came with Bai Wei last time. That military officer was also a handsome man. If he hadn’t been married, he really wanted to introduce him to Bai Wei.
"Grandpa, these walnuts are wild walnuts I picked from the mountains. But I have a lot of them, a whole truckload. I want to take them to the supply and marketing cooperative to sell, but the quantity is a bit large, and I'm afraid they won't accept them."
Bai smiled.
These days, if you want to sell these mountain products, you have to take them to the supply and marketing cooperatives.
The supply and marketing cooperative accepts everything. If Bai Wei only had one or two bags of walnuts, that would be fine, but she had a whole truckload of them, and if they delivered them directly to their door, they probably wouldn't dare to accept them, for fear that she came from an illegal background.
If I could use some connections or find someone, this batch of goods could be sold.
"It's a bit much. How much is it?"
Xu Sigui asked curiously.
Bai Wei took the old man's hand, walked to the door of the barber shop and pointed.
The Liberation truck was parked on the side of the road, but from this angle, Shen Cuiyu was not visible.
"Master, that car filled up a whole carriage."
Bai Wei's words really shocked the old man.
"The whole carriage is filled with walnuts you picked?"
Xu Sigui couldn't believe it.
"Yes, I picked it."
Bai Wei nodded, and Xu Sigui pulled Bai Wei into the barber shop in a hurry. There was no one else in the shop, so the old man asked in a low voice.
"Little girl, tell me the truth, did you collect this load of walnuts from the village?"
In the 1970s, individuals were not allowed to trade.
This is speculation!
Bai Wei was also clear about this.
The reason why Xu Sigui asked this was because the quantity of Bai Wei's goods was really too large.
Although private business is prohibited, there are still some people who do business by purchasing mountain products from the countryside and then selling them to make a profit from the difference.
This is exactly what the old man is worried about!
