After this incident, Lin E became completely famous in Shanglin Village, and Lin Jianqiang and his wife didn't even dare to breathe in front of her.
Lin Yi was also very obedient and clever.
With Lin'e in charge, the funeral went relatively smoothly.
In the evening, Lin Yi brought his family and Lin E's family back to Nanyu.
Everyone was a little unmotivated.
The four children sensed that the atmosphere between the adults was not right and did not dare to make a noise. Even Xu Jian and Xu Kang, who had not seen their parents for a long time, did not dare to be too presumptuous.
"Dad! I still find it unbelievable that my second uncle beat his own son to death? This..." Lin Ying sat down on the bench with his eyes wide open.
Lin Yi rubbed his brows tiredly and smiled bitterly. "I am glad that I don't live in the village, otherwise they would stare at me. Jianqiang came to me just now and said that he doesn't want to rent our house anymore and wants to move back home."
Lin Ying was stunned for a moment before she understood. "That's right. Jianguo is gone, and he's the only son of the second branch. Plus, his second uncle has been arrested, so it's unrealistic for the couple not to go back."
"If you don't want to rent it, then don't. Our family doesn't need this little bit of money. It also helps us cut off contact with my second uncle." Lin Qin said expressionlessly.
To be honest, Lin E felt bad when she heard her two nieces rejecting Lin Zhi's family, but she was the one who dealt with Li Lian, the psychopath, personally, so she could understand the sisters' actions.
They talked for a while, and after the men finished their shower, Lin Qin and the others also went to take a shower and change clothes.
The next day, everyone did what they were supposed to do.
Just two days after Lin Qin returned to school, Zhao Qingyue came to her house.
"My dear schoolmate, I asked you to buy seafood and other ingredients as I said before. I am here now!"
Lin Qin glanced at the student union officer next to Zhao Qingyue and showed her signature warm and polite smile, "President, how much do you plan to buy? What are you going to use it for?"
Zhao Qingyue did not hide it and said directly: "Next week our school will have a social gathering with other schools. It happens that the leaders from the provincial capital are coming over, so the reception will all fall on our student union.
The boss of Bao Canteen was well-informed. He sent over a list of ingredients early on, with the prices clearly marked. Look for yourself, river shrimps are 2.5 yuan per pound, oysters are 2.6 yuan per pound, and carp is 2 yuan per pound. Even the cheapest vegetables cost 40 or 50 cents per pound. Isn't this bullying us because we have never bought vegetables before!"
Lin Qin was also horrified after reading it, "Didn't you report this price issue to the cafeteria owner?"
A boy next to Zhao Qingyue frowned and said, "We complained, but he was arrogant and said that they were helping to run errands, so it was reasonable to charge him some hard work fees. If there was no vegetable market near our school, we would not have been controlled by him."
The Normal College is on the outskirts of the city. This area is full of schools and there are a few shops outside. It is far from the residential area, and it is impossible to find a vegetable market nearby.
Most of the students in the school don't have bicycles. If they want to go out of school, they have to take the bus to the city and back. Which one doesn't cost money? Normal students don't spend money to wander around. It's really difficult for them to find a vegetable market and bring back enough food.
Zhao Qingyue grumbled indignantly, "If the labor fee was reasonable and the food he gave was decent, we wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. But the ingredients he gave us are not fresh at all.
Let me put it this way, half of the baskets of ingredients were inferior products. When we went to argue with him, he disappeared and reappeared after the event. By then, there was no evidence, so he could deny it. This kind of thing happened more than once or twice, and I have also reported it to the school leaders.
But that person is a relative of a school leader, so all he has to do is make some connections, and say a few nice words and the matter will be over. But in the end, we are the ones being blamed!
This time I have made up my mind not to use his stuff, let's see how he takes advantage of us!"
Lin Qin was a little surprised. "President, I don't think you are a person who acts on impulse. Since you know that the cafeteria owner has connections behind him, it's okay for you to quietly find another supplier. What if the other party makes things difficult for you and takes away your position as president?"
"He dares!" Zhao Qingyue clenched her fists angrily.
Lin Qin shook her head helplessly, "President, calm down, this is not how it should be done. You don't have to ask the canteen owner to buy the ingredients, but you must do it flawlessly so that the other party can't find fault. For example, if there is a leader in the school who is easy to talk to and supports you, you can go to him to get the approval document for the purchase of ingredients.
Wait for the approval from your superiors before you go to purchase ingredients. Even if the canteen owner finds out and makes a fuss afterwards, you can push the leader out. If the school later insists on asking the canteen owner to help purchase ingredients, you can give the job to some students with connections.
If the canteen owner continues to sell inferior products as good ones, those students will not tolerate it, and if a big fuss happens, it will have nothing to do with you."
Zhao Qingyue is not stupid to be able to sit in the position of Student Union President. She looked at Lin Qin deeply with a complicated look in her eyes, "It is our loss that you didn't come to our Student Union."
Lin Qin laughed. "I am just a little older and have more experience, so I am not responsible. So, wait until you get the approval documents, and then I will take you there in person. You can decide what ingredients and how much you want."
After seeing off Zhao Qingyue and his group, Lin Qin calmed down and continued to study.
Within two days, Zhao Qingyue had gotten the job done.
As promised, Lin Qin personally took them to Wenjun Seafood Wholesale Store.
Lin Yi happened to be there too.
There are many people buying goods in the store, and everyone can see and hear the prices, so there is no possibility of raising prices.
It also makes Zhao Qingyue feel at ease.
After this trip, Zhao Qingyue and her friends won’t need Lin Qin to lead the way when they come here on their own in the future.
Zhao Qingyue and his group saw that everyone was buying baskets of goods and couldn't help but exclaim, "They are here to purchase goods!"
Lin Qin smiled and said, "Otherwise, why is it called seafood wholesale? We don't do retail business here. We mainly sell seafood. Seniors, please see what you need. The other vegetables are in the fields. If you want any, my dad will go back and pick them for you."
Everyone's eyes lit up and they immediately looked at the seafood and asked the price.
With Lin Qin's reception throughout the process, things went very smoothly and the money spent was more than ten dollars less than Zhao Qingyue had expected.
Zhao Qingyue was happy, but she scolded the canteen owner again.
Lin Qin went back to school with them and no longer cared about the student union's affairs.
It was Ge Qiuyue and the others who told her what happened next after they came back from the student union.
"Aqin, you don't know that the cafeteria owner went to the student union this morning and made a scene, saying that the president went back on his word and ordered food from him but then regretted it, causing him to lose a lot of money, and he insisted on asking the president to compensate him.
It was the first time that the president had met such a shameless person and he was furious. Fortunately, with the approval of the school leaders, the canteen owner was slapped in the face in public and left angrily. Before leaving, he made threats and everyone heard it.
Do you think this will affect the president?" Ge Qiuyue looked worried. (End of this chapter)
