I am Xu Lingjun, who is full of love in the courtyard

Chapter 4 4. The first crossing

Xu Lingjun opened his eyes again, it was already the night of autumn 2012.

After getting up, without putting on his coat, he went to his kitchen and put the loach in his portable space into the fish pond.

Don't tell me, loaches that haven't been destroyed by chemical fertilizers and pesticides have extraordinary tenacious vitality, and they are still alive and kicking.

Xu Lingjun is a courier who comes and goes in wind and rain. He has been delivering couriers in the city since he graduated from junior high school. He has been doing this for three years.

Originally, this time, he was worried that his parents would be sad because all the fruit trees on the farm died, so he came to comfort them and asked for a few days off, but he was fired unexpectedly.

Originally, he wanted to go back and beg the boss, but now he doesn't plan to go.It just so happened that he didn't want to go, now that he had this golden finger, there was no need to deliver the courier anymore.

Although he is only 18 years old, he already has more than 3 deposits.This time I came back to replant the peach trees, and nearly 2 yuan was spent on labor, saplings and fertilizers.I bought a second-hand van to transport the goods, which cost more than 1 yuan.He was so poor that he only had 1 yuan left, which was only enough for food.

After putting some water in the fish pond, Xu Lingjun went back to sleep.

When I woke up the next morning, I made breakfast for my sister Xu Xiaolan who was in sixth grade.He put all the loaches in a big bucket, and drove to Xihong City with plastic bags and electronic scales.

Some people may be thinking, it’s just some loaches, and they can be sold at the farmer’s market in the town.It was a big mistake, the consumption power in the town was not enough, Xu Lingjun planned to sell it at a high price, so he had to go to the city to sell it.

Because he came early, he quickly grabbed a good stall at the outer aisle of Phoenix Farmers Market, the largest farmers market in Xihong City.

Xu Lingjun was originally a somewhat introverted person, but after three years of express delivery, he has become much more cheerful.Now I dare to set up a stall and dare to sell it. "The authentic wild loach in Hualin Mountain has 3 or 4 sizes. If you want to buy it, come and have a look."

At this time, a middle-aged woman who looked very shrewd came over with a vegetable basket, looked at Xu Lingjun, and said, "Boss, how do you sell this loach?"

"30 a catty is the same thing, there are a few eels in here, 50 a catty."

After hearing this, the middle-aged woman shook her head and left.

There are several supermarket chain brands in Xihong City, and the competition is fierce.Mr. Li, started from scratch and founded the largest supermarket chain brand in Xihong City, Liangpin Supermarket.

Feeling the fierce competition, he often came to various farmer's markets for research, which made him catch all the high-end wild fish resources in Xihong City.

Usually their company has a dedicated person in charge of this matter.He himself sometimes comes over to have a look.Today he happened to see Xu Lingjun's loach.

From the fish's activities, breathing, and appearance, he could tell at a glance that it was a wild loach.It is hard to see so many wild loaches of this size.

He hurried over and said to the young stall owner (Xu Lingjun), "Boss, are all your loaches wild? Why are they so big? Impossible?"

Xu Lingjun looked at him and said, "Boss, look at my loach. It's so active that I can't catch it at all. Let alone farmed ones, even wild ones are not so active. This is all from Hualin Mountain. The loaches raised in the high-quality water have not suffered much damage from chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Don’t think I’m a little more expensive than others, but my quality is also good.”

Mr. Li smiled and said, "Boss, what's the price of your loach? I think your two eels are so thick, they add up to one or two catties."

"This is the first time I'm selling loach 1, eel 30. Don't think I'm more expensive than others, but my goods are good. At this price, I feel that I've lost money."

After hearing this, a passing bystander woman said, "Don't buy it here, it's too dark, and the wild loach is only 20 a catty."

Xu Lingjun looked at her and said, "Auntie, you think it's expensive, so you don't have to buy it, but don't say that I sell bad products, and don't take a look at the quality of my goods."

The women onlookers wanted to argue about something, but they were interrupted by President Li, "Sister, you really misunderstood this little boss. According to my experience in running a supermarket for so many years, his loach and rice field eels are definitely the best wild products." .Ordinary people would definitely find it not worthwhile to buy, but for those rich people, he is willing to pay a higher price to buy it.”

After hearing Mr. Li's words, the women onlookers were still a little upset, but they left without saying anything.Maybe he is still calling Li always a fool in his heart.

"Boss, I want all of your loaches, and I will pay the price you said."

Xu Lingjun said in surprise. "Boss, there are more than 30 catties in it, and it may add up to 1000 yuan. Do you really want it?"

"There are never too many good things, please weigh them for me."

Xu Lingjun looked at the seriousness of the other party, it didn't seem like a fake.He is also well dressed and looks like a person of status.He said, "Okay." Soon, Xu Lingjun weighed out the weight, which was 32.3 catties for loach and 2.3 catties for eel.

"Boss, give me your plastic bucket, it will save me a lot of money."

Xu Lingjun was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "Okay."

"This rice field eel can also be poured for me."

"Okay." Xu Lingjun poured the rice field eel from the plastic bag into the plastic bucket again.Then he took out his mobile phone and calculated in front of Mr. Li, "...969 plus 115, the total is 1084, the boss will count you as 1080."

Mr. Li said with a smile, "Okay. Where's your payment code?"

Xu Lingjun clicked on his WeChat, and before he clicked on the payment code, he heard Mr. Li say, "Boss, please add me as a friend. Next time there is such a good product, I will want it again. I run a supermarket , not to mention how much you want, a few hundred catties can still be digested. Of course, if the quality is too poor, don’t look for me, no need.”

The two added WeChat and phone numbers to each other, and Mr. Li left with a plastic bucket.Xu Lingjun packed his things, went to the city and bought two sets of thermal underwear, two sets of sweaters, a good quilt, some socks, bought some fruits and vegetables, and went home.

回到家的他从网上订购了没有标识的10个简易孵蛋器、1000盒火柴、100个老式打火机、机械手表10个、老式闹钟1个、锁10把，苜蓿草、小白菜、大白菜种子各10包，以及《剪纸艺术》、《竹编艺术》、《柳编艺术》、《水果发酵与罐头制作工艺》各一本，又从隔壁镇上的集市买了铁锅一个、柴刀和菜刀各一把。

After a few days, everything ordered online was delivered to the town.Xu Lingjun drove to the post office of the unified courier point in the town, and took all his parcels.No, everything is ready, he is ready to cross.
