Chapter 44 Liang Lizheng's Success
Xu Zhichun had nothing to say.
Because her aunt was working so hard, she couldn't say no to selling it.
By the way, she didn't even count how many stores she didn't buy from.
"Okay, three pounds then."
Xu Zhichun quickly sold out the shares of several other companies.
If the buyers didn't come, it would be impossible to sell. The three-day deadline had been announced, and everyone in the village knew about it.
This matter has finally come to an end.
Xu Zhichun breathed a sigh of relief.
When only the last piece was left, by chance, two families arrived at Xu Zhichun's house one after the other. Each family claimed that the piece belonged to them, and neither of them would give in. They argued and almost got into a fight.
Xu Zhichun was overwhelmed, so she proposed a compromise: divide the three pounds equally, with each family taking half. If anyone was not happy, then no one could buy the three pounds; she would not sell it.
The matter was resolved only after both families agreed.
The two families tried to persuade her to add another kilogram so that they could take two kilograms, but Xu Zhichun refused.
It’s not that she can’t afford the extra pound, but she just can’t tolerate their bad habits.
When this matter reached the ears of Liang Lizheng, Liang Lizheng couldn't help but curse, "You bastard!"
Zhichun was a weak young woman supporting a family, and no one took her seriously. He wasn't being conceited, but fortunately, Lao San and his wife, and Qi Tian and his wife, helped her, otherwise, who knows how this sweet potato and potato incident would have turned out.
He had watched these days with a cold eye. There were always those shameless people who insisted on coming to her house to make things difficult for her and asking for more. Wasn't it because they thought she was weak and easy to bully? If those potatoes and sweet potatoes were from her family, they would get what they asked for. Who would dare to be so unreasonable?
She gave a deadline, and it was not easy for him to interfere within the deadline. Besides, she herself held on and refused to give in, which was good.
Now that the deadline has passed, it's time to end this matter.
In order to prevent those who are still unwilling to give up and come to bother him again, he needs to come out and say a few words.
Liang Lizheng's gong once again "clang clang clang!" rang out in the village.
Just as they were preparing dinner in the evening, people from every household hurried out of their homes and hurried towards the big locust tree.
"What's the matter?"
"I don't know. Uncle Village Chief has been beating the gong too much lately."
"Just don't do anything bad."
"That's right."
When almost everyone was there, Liang Lizheng started knocking on the door loudly, "bang bang bang!" The villagers stopped chattering and looked up with their necks tilted and mouths slightly opened.
"Everyone be quiet. I'm gathering everyone today to talk about potatoes and sweet potatoes."
Is it something to do with potatoes and sweet potatoes? Everyone should listen carefully.
Liang Lizheng: "I believe many people have tasted these potatoes and sweet potatoes. Everyone knows they are good things, right?"
There was a burst of laughter from the audience, and everyone looked at those who had bought a pot of steamed sweet potatoes earlier.
Those people scratched their heads and lowered their heads, while trying to save face with stubborn laughter, but also felt a little embarrassed.
"Quiet!" Liang Lizheng continued, "This good stuff is not available anywhere else. Zhichun was lucky enough to buy it from two merchants from other places. She was also very kind, selling it to everyone for one penny per pound. If it were someone else, how many would do the same? This kindness must be remembered by everyone. Do you acknowledge this?"
Everyone's eyes subconsciously scanned the crowd and fell on Xu Zhichun, nodding one after another.
"Admit it, you have to admit it!"
"That's right, Zhichun is really kind."
"yes."
No one is stupid. Selling such a fresh and delicious thing for one cent per pound is clearly a way to take care of the villagers. Even the most mean-spirited person cannot say that Xu Zhichun is stingy and greedy.
Xu Zhichun never expected that the village head would do this. He was stunned on the spot. A warm feeling surged in his heart and his nose felt slightly sore.
To be honest, she has been very annoyed by this matter recently, and even regretted why she had to meddle in it.
Looking for trouble.
At this moment, hearing what Li Zhengbo said, feeling the grateful eyes of everyone, and listening to the words of recognition and praise, her mood became uncontrollably excited, her blood boiled, and she felt that she was okay again.
Xu Zhichun smiled and responded to the kindness of Liang Lizheng and everyone else, secretly laughing at himself in his heart: What a loser! How could I be moved so easily?
Let’s just say, there are still more good people in the world.
Liang Lizheng waved his hand and said, "A good drum needs no hammering. We are all sensible people. I won't say anything else. If anyone forgets what I said today, don't blame me for embarrassing him. One more thing, potatoes and sweet potatoes are new. I don't care what happens to them in the future, but this year, they are only allowed to be planted in our village. As for sweet potatoes, you can plant as many as you can at home. You are not allowed to give them to your parents' home or other relatives or friends, nor are you allowed to sell them for money. If anyone dares to betray me and let me know that I found a potato or a sweet potato vine in another village, I will find out who it is and then get out of Liangjia Village!"
"Have you remembered everything?"
Everyone was in an uproar.
Many women are secretly planning to send some sweet potato vines to their parents' home.
This stuff tastes really good! It can be seen that Xu Zhichun is not lying, and the production volume is probably really high. Who can not be tempted?
"Village head, my family is not doing well either, can you please—"
"No," Liang Lizheng said coldly, "Can't you still be sad about missing another year? Forget it, there's no room for negotiation."
Zhichun was kind-hearted and selling it to the villagers for a penny was like giving it away for free. But this was clearly a way for the village to make money.
This year, no outsiders are allowed to spread the news. Plant more, harvest more. Next year, when other villages find out, how can they not be tempted? If they are tempted, where will they find seeds? Of course, they will find them in their village.
When the time comes, we will sell them all together. We won’t make any dirty money, but we will definitely make some money - and others will be grateful if we make this money!
He is the head of Liangjia Village, so of course he has to consider Liangjia Village first.
Who would give away good things for free? Not even my parents’! If I wanted to give them away, I’d have to wait until next year.
Liang Lizheng thought to himself, next year, he might not be willing to give much away, at most he could sell it to his mother's family at a lower price.
Liang Lizheng couldn't say these words openly, otherwise if they got out, it would seem like he was deliberately plotting against the brother village, which would be embarrassing.
Liang Lizheng has always been prestigious in the village. Since he was so decisive and unquestionable, no one dared to challenge his authority and everyone agreed immediately.
Many smart people who understood Liang Lizheng's character vaguely thought of it and agreed loudly.
Who doesn’t want to get rich?
If you don't seize the great opportunity right in front of you, you will have no place to cry when you regret it.
Liang Lizheng glanced at everyone and said, "Alright, everyone go away!"
After Liang Lizheng said this solemnly, those families who had not bought sweet potatoes and potatoes before regretted it. As soon as Xu Zhichun arrived home, people came one after another.
Said he wanted to buy it.
