Chapter 64
In the morning, Zhou Jiani went to Uncle Liu to borrow an ox cart.
Uncle Liu was training the two little mules. After not seeing each other for more than half a month, the two little guys had grown a lot stronger. When they saw her coming, they snorted.
"It's growing quite fast." Zhou Jiani approached tentatively, and seeing that the mule didn't show any stress reaction, she reached out and touched it.
It really is the good animal that the uncles and uncles praised lovingly at that time.
Uncle Liu now looked at the mules with a particularly loving look. He smiled and said, "They've grown quite a bit taller, haven't they? They both have good appetites and are easy to feed. They're also lively and active, so they're growing fast."
Zhou Jiani smoothed the fur on the mule's neck again and said with a smile, "Once we train them, our transportation will be even more advanced."
After chatting with Uncle Liu for a few words, Uncle Liu helped her harness the ox cart. Zhou Jiani hurried back to load her things, put on her new schoolbag, stuffed a woven bag in the bag to support it, and headed for the town.
She didn't dare to pick up the cowpeas and peanuts on the way. When she met Zhao Mei who came back, she chatted with her for a while and watched her leave. Then she looked around and put the things in the warehouse.
Letting the old ox walk slowly, Zhou Jiani opened a carton of milk and drank it, then started to tinker with her "mobile phone".
The last time I started a group, I made a net profit of just over a thousand after deducting the cost and handling fees. Now the balance in the piggy bank has accumulated to more than five thousand eight hundred.
I spent about ten yuan last night buying cowpeas and other things. I happened to have no money left, so I took out twenty yuan and put it in my pocket, then went back to the group creation page to start editing the information and taking more photos.
Most of them are groups that have already been opened. She just needs to slightly modify the previous information and add the purchase information she wants to send.
The traditional, large-capacity thermos is back again, this time with a retro tin model and the exquisite bamboo woven model we saw last time... The inner liner is excellent... (Looking for a large-capacity solar charger, a powered anti-wolf device, a mini spray bottle, and dishwashing liquid). Limited-time group buy price: 79.9/unit with lid.)
Homemade bulk dried cowpeas, re-clustered, boiled in salt water, and dried naturally in the sun. Anyone who's tried them knows the quality of these dried cowpeas; they're absolutely fantastic. (Looking for a large-capacity solar charger, a powered anti-wolf device, a mini spray bottle, and dishwashing liquid.) Special price: 29.8/500g.
The basket is back again... (Looking for large-capacity solar chargers, electric wolf alarms, mini spray bottles, and dishwashing liquid)...)
[Farmers are starting to sell peanuts, plump and full... (Looking to buy...), today's group buy price is 5.9/kg, limited time only.]
[Handmade DIY old cotton hair band, group post, 1.9/piece...]
Set the interval time and start sending red envelopes. Note on the red envelopes: If you have any purchase requests, please see the content!
Press OK and return to the group to browse the new items opened by other group leaders.
Micro pressure cooker, air fryer, mini fan...
If someone could start a group selling solar power banks, she could buy a mini fan. She doesn't need it now, but she can use it next summer.
But there's still a year left, so maybe she can get a solar charger? So she ordered a small fan first, took it out, and tried it on its own power supply. It worked well on all three settings, but she couldn't use it right away, so she put it away for the time being.
Disposable gloves are good to have. You probably won’t use them too often, so two boxes will last you a long time.
She continued climbing the stairs and found snail noodles. She had seen how popular they were in her previous life. A neighbor's daughter had given her a bag, and it tasted okay. But her stomach wasn't quite used to it at the time, so she thought it was something strange, so she never tried it again.
But it’s too late now, the snail noodles are sold out.
Although she missed the snail noodles, someone started a group buying instant noodles and sent it out in her group buying information.
A box of 24 packs from a certain brand, with eight flavors. Zhou Jiani quickly poked the '+' sign a few times, and only saw at the checkout that she had grabbed six boxes.
Taking advantage of this convenient moment, I received the goods in seconds and transferred them to the warehouse.
The dried cowpea chain game she set as the first one was scrolling across the screen so fast that it affected her climbing the stairs.
Zhou Jiani happily turned to the second group of green apples, which were interspersed in the group. She bought two batches of five pounds of apples. Seeing that there was no one in front or behind, she picked up the goods again, leaving one person to scan the rest into the warehouse.
I took out the thermos. The water in the thermos was poured in yesterday at noon. It was no longer hot. I washed the apple and started to chew it.
The apples are sweet and sour and taste good.
After eating, he took out a wet wipe to wipe his hands and put it in the warehouse for destruction.
While on the road, I paid attention to the information in the group, especially the red envelopes.
A group leader claimed the dishwashing liquid with a red envelope and said it would be available in the afternoon. No one has responded to the other three types.
I rushed to the town to pick up the package at the post office, looked in the direction of the supply and marketing cooperative, drove over to take a look, and saw that the big sister was there last time, so she didn't go in.
She also felt guilty, always feeling that the salesperson should remember her. She had bought a lot of things in bulk last time and even asked people about buying scraps of cloth. This time, she was too embarrassed to buy anything again, so she simply didn't go in. She drove to the state-owned restaurant, parked the ox cart there, said hello to Wang Liping, and asked them to help watch over the goods while she went to the black market by herself.
After bargaining, I collected a pile of miscellaneous tickets and bought a dozen eggs, five kilograms of rice, and five kilograms of flour.
Seeing a few people selling vegetables here, she went over to take a look. There were loofahs, eggplants, leeks and beans, all of which were quite fresh.
Zhou Jiani went out first to put away the rice and other things, and when she came back she took out the bag and put away all the vegetables.
He carried the items out again, found a corner, carefully observed his surroundings, and began to pour them one by one into the warehouse.
6 jin of loofah, 7 jin of eggplant, 10 jin of leeks, and 5 jin of beans, each weighing one jin.
Fresh vegetables cannot be stored, so they are sold out directly in bulk.
Create a new group after sending out red envelopes.
【A fresh vegetable garden series...】
After setting the content, I took a look at the things I had sent out before. The cowpeas, thermos, and peanuts were all sold out. There was still one basket left, and there were five hair bands at the end. The speed of the chain was not fast, but three were sold, and there were two left.
It doesn’t matter if you can’t sell all of them. You can start a group with five of them. This number is just to meet the qualifications for the group.
After looking through the group, Zhou Jiani found nothing she needed, so she went to the state-owned restaurant.
As soon as she entered the room, Wang Liping said, "You left so quickly just now that I didn't even have a good look at your bag."
He came over and took the bag off Zhou Jiani's shoulder, looked at it, and said, "Did you make this yourself?"
Zou Kai and the others poked their heads out to greet Zhou Jiani. The two pastry ladies really liked the hair bands Zhou Jiani asked Zhao Mei to give them. When they greeted her, they saw Wang Liping studying Zhou Jiani's bags. The two of them looked at the steamer, estimated the time, and could leave for a while, so they came out one after another.
"What good stuff has Master Zhou made?"
"Do you think this bag is pretty?" Wang Liping said, putting it on her shoulder. "It looks quite stylish with the neat stitching."
"It looks nice. Is there an extra cloth bag sewn on the outside?"
Not only were the two pastry ladies watching, but a nearby customer also said, "Hey, is this made of scraps of cloth? It's put together pretty well."
I also came over to take a look.
Wang Liping was looking inside and exclaimed, "Jiani, there's a small cloth bag in here? Did you sew a few more bags on top?"
Zhou Jiani smiled and said, "Just two, it's convenient to pack some small things."
"Can I make one like you?" Wang Liping asked.
Zhou Jiani nodded: "Just do it. If you think it's useful, try it out."
Wang Liping was so happy.
At noon, Zhou Jiani had the braised pork and rice combination. Wang Liping did not take the receipt, but took the initiative to tell her a piece of news: the meat processing plant would deliver a batch of canned meat in a few days. If Zhou Jiani wanted it, she would help save two boxes, at most two boxes.
Their internal staff have already been arranged.
Zhou Jiani nodded with a smile: "Yes!"
The kitchen also gave her a bowl of loofah and egg soup.
After eating and drinking, he drove back to the village, found Uncle Liu to return the car, and went to the test site to find Qiu Zeming with the opened package. On the way, he met Zhang Baosheng.
Zhang Baosheng smiled with wrinkles on his face and said, "Comrade Xiao Zhou, the county supply and marketing cooperative took the initiative to come to us to buy goods. Xiao Lu from our village supply and marketing cooperative brought people here. The village supply and marketing cooperative doesn't plan to join, but Xiao Lu wants to buy some for the town and other brigade supply and marketing cooperatives."
The town's purchasing agent was also in charge of purchasing for the supply and marketing cooperatives of each brigade. Someone found Lu Zhaoliang and asked him to purchase a batch of baskets from the Qianjin Brigade.
Lu Zhaoliang, who used to be arrogant and looked down on others, this time took the initiative to offer Zhang Baosheng a cigarette and proposed to purchase a batch of baskets.
But Zhang Baosheng didn't dare to agree. He had been working overtime to complete the order from the provincial capital, and he had not finished it yet. Moreover, after listening to Comrade Xiao Zhou talk about "diversion" last time, he was a little averse to other brigades.
When I heard that he wanted to help the town and other brigades' supply and marketing cooperatives purchase baskets, I didn't agree.
As for the one from the county, he feigned composure, saying he was too busy with orders to handle them right now…
Lu Zhaoliang smiled and said, "Don't you only have 200 baskets?"
What I mean is, it’s two hundred, not two thousand or twenty thousand. There’s no need to pretend that the number of orders is as endless as that of a large state-owned factory.
He is in purchasing, how could he not see that Zhang Baosheng had installed it?
Zhang Baosheng said unhappily, "We also have a storage stool!"
They understood the word "stool", but didn't understand it when it was put together.
He wanted to go to the processing workshop to take a look, but Zhang Baosheng stopped him out of guilt.
Because the only sample compiled by Zhang Laosi and his team has been taken away by Comrade Xiao Zhou.
After finally getting rid of the person, I was thinking of waiting for Comrade Xiao Zhou to come back to discuss it with her, but I happened to meet her on the way and couldn't hide my pride in telling her everything.
Even though they have already cooperated with the provincial capital, they still feel very proud when the county takes the initiative to come to them to purchase goods.
Zhou Jiani smiled and said, "Let's supply the county first. I'll take a batch of orders from the county and then go to the city after I return from the provincial capital. Before leaving for the provincial capital, Comrade Qiu and I will write and mail a letter to the plastic greenhouse experiment team. Let's take it step by step and proceed steadily."
"By the way, please go to the commune this afternoon and tell Director Zhai that if our processing workshop is to expand further, a small courtyard alone will not be enough. We would like to apply for a factory and ask what procedures and preparations are required. By the way, please also ask Director Zhai if Comrade Xiao Li is coming."
The location for the factory had already been chosen. Now was the time to quickly establish the impression of the factory before Director Zhai brought up the idea of diversion. Otherwise, she was worried that if Director Zhai mentioned it to Zhang Baosheng one day, he would panic and hastily declare that they wanted to build a factory. If the tone was not well-controlled, it would easily give the impression that she was offending the leader or deliberately opposing him.
Although they are indeed... well, already taking precautions.
Last time she just said it casually and it didn't count, so this time she asked the captain to bring it up seriously.
Zhang Baosheng hesitated and said with a bit of reluctance: "Are you really going to let him come?"
There was no more movement from the commune, and he was secretly hoping that Comrade Xiao Li would not come.
"Since the leader said that, he must have had this in mind. Captain, you didn't show any disdain at the time, did you?"
Zhang Baosheng smiled sheepishly: "Of course not."
He felt it was an honor and chuckled foolishly twice.
But now there is definitely some resistance.
"If the leader wants to make an arrangement, there's no point in resisting. We might as well take the initiative and show him that we value his work arrangements," Zhou Jiani said. "If the leader hadn't been joking, he might have already been going through the process in the past two days."
We have to find someone to replace Li Jingdang first, and we have to do the handover.
Of course, this was just her imagination.
But she still felt that Director Zhai would take this step.
Zhou Jiani said, "It just so happens that we have to arrange for people to take turns on duty in the processing workshop. If Secretary Li comes down, we won't have to let everyone take turns watching. We can arrange for Secretary Li to live in the processing workshop and watch over the materials and goods in the yard."
Zhang Baosheng: …
Comrade Xiao Zhou is really smart. He even arranged accommodation for Secretary Xiao Li, and it’s a great idea!
