Chapter 046 Call more people

"Xiaoyuan, what do you think about this matter?"

"Well... I think filial piety is more important," Tang Yuan looked at the person who deliberately asked the question, "Don't you think so?"

The Tang family's incident was a big deal, and most people in the factory sympathized with Tang Yuan. However, there were also a few people who liked to see the excitement and made trouble, and they always liked to deliberately say something to stir up trouble.

In response to this, Tang Yuan would always question the past, just like today.

As soon as she said this, everyone around her looked at the person asking the question, and she smiled and asked, "Do you think Tang Jianguo shouldn't be filial?"

It made the person blush.

But the onlookers did not stop talking.

"Liu Hongmei is the daughter-in-law, so she should be filial to her parents. After they got married, they really haven't been filial to her parents. Now that they are back, it's just the right time to make up for what they missed."

"Yes, children are debts, parents are love. Parents work hard to raise their children, and children should be filial. As for Xiaoyuan, when Tang Jianguo and his wife grow old, they will also be filial. Xiaoyuan, don't you think so?"

"Well, I will definitely be filial and give them food and meat every day," Tang Yuan said seriously, "and I will make sure they have enough to eat and clothes to wear."

Such conditions can be easily achieved when Tang Jianguo and his wife grow old, and it will be enough even if she only gives the minimum pension.

But when people around her heard this, they naturally confirmed her filial piety.

When the discussion started again, Tang Yuan bought today's supply of braised pork, picked up his lunch box and left without saying anything more.

As for whether Liu Hongmei can come back, it has no effect on her regret now.

Moreover, given the situation of the Tang family, the problem will not be resolved until Liu Hongmei and Tang Jianguo divorce. She will just have to wait and see what happens to them.

…

"Sister Fang!"

"Why are you here today?" Tang Yuan met Sun Feng at the door of the dilapidated house where the transaction was conducted. "What happened?"

"There is something. We need to go somewhere else to talk about it," Sun Feng said anxiously, "We can talk while we walk."

Tang Yuan nodded and followed Sun Feng away. After walking for a while, it was easy to understand the cause and effect of the matter from his confusing words.

The batch of weapons she and Sun Dong discovered did have some impact on the covert business, but the impact was not on the chickens and pigs raised by Sun Dong and Zhao Zhiqiang, but on the pigs raised by other people.

Before, Zhao Zhiqiang's group went their separate ways, and more than a dozen pigs were divided up, but not everyone could find a hidden place to raise pigs.

When the weapons were discovered, the troops searched everywhere in the mountains to see if there were any more weapons storage areas, but what they found were traces of pig farming.

Although the last few pigs were transferred in batches, two pigs were still found and confiscated directly.

"They were so scared that they dared not do it anymore, so they wanted to find someone to buy the pork. We had been in contact with them during this period, so we got the news the fastest," Sun Feng said. "Dongzi has already been decided, but the movement of that batch of pork would cause too much noise, so we were thinking about whether we could cooperate with you."

"How much pork?"

"Four pigs in total, 380 kilograms of pork."

As they were talking, Tang Yuan followed Sun Feng to the place, but it was not the direct transaction location, but a thatched hut nearby.

“That’s a lot.”

Sun Feng went out for a while and brought Sun Dong back. As soon as he entered the house, he said, "Those little bastards are really cunning. They saw that we were eager to get it and actually raised the price."

"What do you mean?" Tang Yuan frowned.

"They said that we can have pork, but we have to buy it all at once. Three hundred and eighty kilograms of pork, 70 cents a kilogram, a total of two hundred and sixty-six yuan. Where can I find so much money all at once?" Sun Dong said, squatting down and patting the ground.

"You want it?" Tang Yuan saw the excitement in Sun Dong's annoyance.

"If we can get this batch of meat and just sell it, we can make 20 cents per pound of meat," Sun Dong gritted his teeth, "we can make 76 yuan."

"But the prerequisite is that it can be sold," Tang Yuan leaned against the wall of the thatched house, "Why are you in such a hurry? Are you short of money now?"

Sun Dong raised his head.

"And now that you have it in your hands, can you sell it?" Tang Yuan asked again.

Sun Dong lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head: "Sister Fang means... But they can also sell it themselves. Now that the weather is cool, the pork can be frozen outside and it won't go bad even if it is sold for a month or two..."

"Then let them sell it. Three hundred and eighty kilograms, not thirty-eight kilograms. I won't take the risk." Tang Yuan looked down at Sun Dong. "Are you planning to sell it yourself?"

"Didn't we agree that..." Sun Dong looked at Tang Yuan.

"When did I say I wanted to sell this batch of pork?" Tang Yuan raised his eyebrows. "Actually, why don't you sell it yourself? You have the courage and the guts. If you sell 380 kilograms of pork, all the 76 yuan will be yours. Isn't that better?"

"But... I'm a little scared," Sun Dong's face changed slightly, "The black market is so strict now. If I get caught, I don't want to go to jail or be sent to open up wasteland."

Being sentenced at that time did not mean just sitting in jail, but also having to work on a farm to open up wasteland. As a prisoner, you naturally could not receive the same treatment as the educated youth, so your life would certainly not be easy.

Tang Yuan didn't say anything. He waited until he had thought about it for a while before asking, "Who do you think is more scared, you or them?"

As soon as these words came out, Sun Dong's face brightened instantly, and he jumped up excitedly: "Sister Fang!!!"

"You called me here without even explaining the situation clearly. My time is worthless?" Tang Yuan said, turning around and leaving the thatched cottage. "Where are the eggs today?"

"I have them with me. I thought the eggs would save me the trouble of walking around, so I'll get them now." Sun Dong walked out of the thatched hut quickly, took out a basket of eggs from the corner, and transferred the eggs to Tang Yuan's basket.

Tang Yuan left with a basket of eggs.

Sun Feng met with Sun Dong: "Dongzi, how do we deal with this?"

"Let them bid as much as they want. The weather is nice and the pork can be stored. If they like, they can sell it slowly," Sun Dong handed the empty basket to Sun Feng. "Take the basket back. I'll go tell them and I'll be back soon."

"Then we won't make the money?" Sun Feng was still a little reluctant.

"Sister Fang doesn't want to sell it, so you go and sell it?" Sun Dong asked him.

Sun Feng shook his head repeatedly: "I don't dare."

"I don't dare to do that either," Sun Dong spread his hands, smiling, "Whoever dares can go and sell it. Otherwise, they can just eat it themselves. It's only 380 kilograms of pork. If they eat one kilogram a day, they can finish it in a year."

Sun Feng swallowed.

Sun Dong smiled and patted him on the shoulder, then directly refused the cooperation.

They thought he said it on purpose, so they weren't panicked at all and asked him to think it over carefully.

"I've thought it over. There's too much pork. I can't go this route." After the refusal, Sun Dong felt relieved and planned to go back to focus on raising chickens.

His egg business is also doing well. He now lays at least 20 eggs a day, 600 eggs a month, and can earn 30 yuan.

Although selling pork makes more money, it also carries a greater risk. Selling 380 kilograms of pork only earns about 70 yuan. If divided among three people, each person only gets about 20 yuan. This is really not a good calculation.

Tang Yuan also felt that there was no need to take a big risk just to earn such a small amount of money.

She actually has no shortage of meat now. If she really wants to eat meat, she can buy it in Hong Kong. Even if she can make money from this pork, it will take a lot of effort to turn it all into bacon.

Sun Dong and Sun Feng still have a batch of frozen meat that has not been processed yet. It will take some time to slowly turn it into bacon. There is no need to stockpile hundreds of kilograms of pork at this time.

Tang Yuan took the eggs back home and went to the market early, where he sold fifty eggs.

Then I bought a piece of synthetic white cloth and a large piece of denim in the market here, and also bought two dollars worth of buttons in the market.

At that time, there were already a lot of chemical fiber fabrics or cotton blended fabrics in the Hong Kong market. This kind of fabric could not be bought in the game space and could only be bought in the market.

Fortunately, the prices of these materials are not very expensive.

In the following years, chemical fiber fabrics became particularly popular in the mainland, that is, Dacron fabrics, and such fabrics are now everywhere in the Hong Kong market.

After buying the fabric, she continued chatting with people in the market as she had done in the previous few days.

I went back home at lunchtime, selected shirt and jeans patterns in the game space, and made myself a shirt and a pair of jeans.

Then I made a set of long clothes and trousers out of thick cotton cloth, which I could wear when the weather was cooler.

…

"Xiaofang, come quickly. I have already knitted two and a half pieces," Shen Wenyu showed Tang Yuan the knitted sweater pieces. "I was very careful when knitting. It didn't get dirty at all. I thought it was difficult at first, but I didn't expect it to be that difficult to keep it clean. By the way, the leather gloves you gave me are also good. I really didn't freeze my hands when I knitted sweaters these days."

"Sister Shen's craftsmanship is really good," Tang Yuan looked at the knitted sweater for a while, and then asked, "Sister Shen, did you learn this craft from someone else?"

"Yes, I learned it from my second aunt. She is really good at knitting sweaters," Shen Wenyu said. "My second aunt can knit all the patterns I can knit. She can also knit patterns I can't knit. I tried several times but couldn't learn it."

"Sister Shen, is your second aunt busy now?" Tang Yuan asked her.

"No... you mean there will be more orders?" Shen Wenyu asked. Seeing Tang Yuan nodded slowly, he immediately showed excitement. "My second uncle passed away two years ago. My second aunt usually has nothing to do. She just washes clothes and mends clothes to earn some pocket money. She is good at this job, better than me."

"If possible, I'll come tomorrow and we'll meet here then." Tang Yuan thought the sweater knitting business was good. She could make some money as a middleman, and Shen Wenyu and others could also earn a little to supplement their lives.

As for Aunt Qian, there were still too many people in the kitchen, so unless there was really no one there, she would not go looking for Aunt Qian for the time being.

But Aunt Qian has a job, so she's not that short of money.

"Then I'll call my second aunt over tomorrow," Shen Wenyu agreed. "She can earn some money from her usual job, but it's not stable. It's better for her to do this job. Not only is it stable, but she can also earn more money. Then she can talk to me."

Seeing that Shen Wenyu had already begun to imagine what would happen after her second aunt came over, Tang Yuan said no more and went straight to find Xue Shiqi with the sweater she had knitted.
