Chapter 54054 Chu Song's Bad Temptation
Chunfeng hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to take her people over. As they walked, she warned, "Alright, I'll reluctantly trust you. I believe you're here to do business together. But if you lie to me, I'll never let you go, even if I die!"
The cunning Chu Song ignored her warning.
The spring breeze led the way, and they walked further and further away, turning through one alley after another, and finally stopped at an ordinary house. She raised her hand and knocked on the door.
Three long, two short, and two long.
Soon, the door opened. It was opened by a middle-aged woman who was a little older. When she saw Chu Song and others, her face immediately turned pale.
Chunfeng explained, "Sister Yu, they came here to cooperate in business, so I brought them here."
"I don't know, I found the wrong person!"
Bang---
The door was slammed shut.
Even Chunfeng was turned away. She scratched her head, feeling a bit overwhelmed. "You can't blame me for this. Sister Yu doesn't believe you. She's been cheated before, so she's afraid of the ropes after being bitten once."
Chu Song imitated the spring breeze knocking on the door, three long and two short, two long, she shouted: "Sister Yu, if there is anything, let's open the door and talk it over. If you don't open the door, luckily I know a little bit of boxing, so I can only climb over the wall to get in."
Chunfeng: "..." When did she learn to knock on the door? Only once!
"Really not opening it? Okay, then I really want to climb over the wall, you won't call the police, right?"
Chu Song said this on purpose. It was obvious that Gu Yu would not call the police. She was more afraid of the police coming to her house than Chu Song.
After a few seconds, the door opened and Gu Yu said unhappily, "Come in!"
Chu Song smiled, but his smile made people hate him a little bit, "Okay."
As soon as he entered the room, Gu Yu started cursing, veiledly saying, "You foolish fool, you dare to seduce anyone? What did I tell you? Did a dog eat your brain?"
"You have to kill me to be satisfied? I can teach you ten thousand times but you still won't understand. I think you should just go home as soon as possible. I can't accommodate a big Buddha like you here."
Chunfeng lowered her head and silently endured the scolding, her eyes slightly red. She knew that Gu Yu was a person who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside.
Chu Song: "Okay, why blame the kid? Blame me if you want. Blame me for being too smart and calculating."
Chunfeng snorted. Although she was originally to blame, she was a little! Reluctantly! A little bit loyal!
"You think I don't dare to scold you?"
Chu Song moved a small stool to the yard, sat down, and then put his hands on his chin. "Okay, you can scold me now. After that, we will start discussing cooperation."
Gu Yu: "..."
How could she scold him like that?
She glanced at the three people coldly. Judging from their faces, none of them looked like bad people. She calmed down a little, knowing that since the three people had found this place, they would not give up.
"What business?"
Chunfeng quickly said, "They want to sell braised meat dishes. Sister Yu, you can try it. It's really delicious, a hundred times better than the ones in the restaurant!"
Xiang Baoshu let her taste a piece and said, "We mainly sell processed food that can be eaten directly. This time we are selling braised food. We should sell it again later, and then we will stop selling it in a short time. We will change it up, such as cakes and snacks, but don't worry, I can guarantee the quality."
Gu Yu's expression eased slightly, and after tasting it, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Chunfeng was not exaggerating, the taste was indeed good!
"You made this yourself?"
"Um."
"Everyone is selling grain, flour and cloth, but it's not easy to sell yours."
Chu Song stared at her, revealing a row of white teeth, and it was unknown what tricks he was planning. "So, choosing who to cooperate with is very important. You see, we didn't choose anyone else, but you because of this."
Gu Yu: “…I don’t deserve it.”
"you can!"
Gu Yu's mouth twitched. What had this brought her back? She glanced at the goods in the backpack and asked, "Are you planning to sell them by the portion? How much is one portion?"
Xiang Baoshu was about to answer when Chu Song said, "Forty-five cents a piece. If you sell a lot, you can make it a little cheaper."
Chun Feng was furious: "Forty-five cents?! That's too expensive, even though it's really delicious..."
"It's delicious, isn't it? If you had money, would you buy it?"
"If I had the money, I would buy it, but I..."
"Then we can just sell them to people with spare money." Chu Song didn't think too much about it. "These aren't necessities. Take my mother for example. She wouldn't buy them even if they were a penny cheaper. Besides, we don't need to sell them in large quantities at a small profit. We only have these, and the quantity is limited. We can't sell them to many people."
Just like luxury goods, they don’t cheat the poor out of their money. In such a big city like Huangxi, there are always rich people.
Gu Yu choked, realizing she couldn't refute her words. She thought for a moment, "Forty-five cents is still too expensive. Sell it to me for forty cents a piece, and I can help you resell it. As for how much it can sell for and how to sell it, you don't have to worry about it."
Chu Song was very straightforward, "Deal!"
Gu Yu was even more choked. At 40 cents per copy, she clearly had room to make a profit, but Chu Song agreed too quickly, which made her feel like she was at a disadvantage.
A total of fifty-six copies, twenty-two dollars and forty cents, minus the cost, the net profit was twelve dollars.
Xiang Baoshu calculated in her heart what she could get, and it was not bad. At least, the income would be enough for her to live a good life in the countryside in the future. But in order to cover up her tracks and prevent being targeted by interested people, she couldn't do too much each time.
Chu Song diligently helped Chunfeng move the braised food into the room. After everything was moved, he smiled and said to Gu Yu, "Sister Yu, we will be your long-term customers from now on. Don't worry, we will deliver it to you as soon as we have new things next time."
"Um."
"If you encounter any difficulties in the future, feel free to come to Luhua Brigade to find me. Just tell me my name and you will find me."
Although it was probably just a polite remark, after eating a few sweet dates in succession, Gu Yu nodded and laughed dryly twice, "Yeah, okay."
After handing over all matters, it was already noon, and the three of them went back after lunch. With the experience of the morning, Chu Song consciously climbed onto Fang Qingrong's body before walking for a while. After all, there were few people on the mountain road and there were more birds than people, so she didn't feel guilty.
When they got home, Ye Xiuzhi asked, "Why did you come back just now?"
"I was delayed on the way."
"Yeah, with you here, how can we avoid delays?" Ye Xiuzhi thought she was just dawdling on the road again, saying she was tired and needed a rest. "Have you two eaten yet?"
"Yes, I had a bowl of beef noodles in the city."
Ye Xiuzhi nodded. As long as she wasn't hungry, she was fine. She probably ate in the city before returning. "By the way, where's the pig's trotter I asked you to buy?"
Chu Song: “…”
Oops.
As soon as Ye Xiuzhi saw her expression, she knew she had forgotten. "Look, what's the point of raising you? Why don't you forget yourself?"
"I really forgot myself, and you should cry."
Ye Xiuzhi rolled her eyes at her.
"Aunt." Xiang Baoshu was also stunned. She didn't remember it and had completely forgotten about it. "It's my fault too. I forgot and didn't remind Xianxian."
Ye Xiuzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Forget it, if I didn't buy it, then I didn't buy it. Xianxian, you can pick up some sausages and give them to Xiao Lu. The men can't cook, so sausages are easy to cook."
"Why should I go? I don't want to."
"Then I'll go, and you take over my work."
Chu Song immediately shook his head: "I'll go."
Ye Xiuzhi was also used to her changing expressions like turning the pages of a book. She went into the kitchen and brought her a sausage, advising her, "Be more polite. He's so kind to you, like a real sister. Remember to invite him over for dinner tonight."
"Isn't he coming?"
"Silly boy, whether he comes or not is his business, whether you invite him or not is your business."
"I understand." Chu Song nodded, "Just a courtesy."
Ye Xiuzhi waved her hand, like sending away a puppy, "Hurry up and go. The sooner you go, the sooner you will be back."
Chu Song obediently carried the sausages out, but he didn't find anyone. There was no one at the educated youth site. Everyone had gone to work, and Lu Minglin, who was recuperating from his injuries, was not there either.
Chu Song turned around. The door was locked, so she couldn't even get in, and naturally couldn't deliver the sausages.
Why was she wandering around instead of recuperating? She had made a wasted trip. Chu Song returned with the sausages in his hand. Coincidentally, he ran into Lu Minglin, who was returning to the educated youth camp.
"Brother Lu!" Chu Song's mood improved, and he didn't have to make another trip.
When Lu Minglin saw her, he was startled at first, then he looked at her gravely and said, "Chu Song."
"Here, my mother asked me to give it to you as a thank you gift."
"Thank you for what?"
"You saved my second brother before. Is your arm better now?"
"Well, I'm feeling better, but I can't do any heavy work for the time being. I'm helping Uncle Chu with some tidying up."
Chu Song blinked innocently: "Let me see the wound."
Regarding her hooligan behavior, Lu Minglin asked: "...Do you really want to see it?"
"Can I see it?"
"Only my wife can see my body."
Chu Song: "Then I won't watch it."
Lu Minglin hummed softly, feeling a little disappointed.
"By the way, my mother asked you to come for dinner tonight."
"Okay." Lu Minglin agreed, "Sorry for bothering you."
Now it was Chu Song's turn to be surprised, "Are you really coming?"
"So it's just a courtesy. Don't you welcome me?"
Chu Song really wanted to say "what else?", but she held it back. Just come if you want, since it wasn't her who was cooking anyway.
She smiled perfunctorily, "Welcome, welcome."
Lu Minglin said, "There's no one at the Youth League Center right now. Would you like to come sit down?"
"Forget it, I have to go back..."
"I just bought a few bags of jerky, in different flavors."
Chu Song tried to resist bad temptations.
Chu Song failed to resist the bad temptation.
"All right."
