Reborn Craftsman

Chapter 20 Father's Worries

When I got home, it was already [-]:[-] in the afternoon. Since it was midsummer, it was still dark.

However, the rumble of Liu Xing riding a Wuyang Honda motorcycle attracted all the busy family members, including the fourth uncle Liu Huaqing who was about to go back.

Among them, Liu Dageng looked at Liu Xing in surprise: "Why did you ride back the motorcycle of the wife of the tempeh shop? I heard that this thing needs to drink gasoline to move around. I'm afraid it will cost you a few bucks every time you go back and forth." Gas money, right?"

The implication is that motorcycles are something that rich people can enjoy, we poor people should not join in the fun, I am afraid that the money for eating will be burned by motorcycles.

"Dad, the gasoline at the gas station is only 500 cents a liter, which is enough for me to ride home several times. Besides, this motorcycle was lent to me by Sister Zhang. Isn't he afraid that I will be in danger when I go home late?" ?” Liu Xing patiently explained that there was no other way. At present, it cannot be said that he bought a broken motorcycle for 500 yuan without authorization. Although it was only [-] yuan, he was sure that his father would absolutely kill him.

After all, in the countryside in 1993, 500 yuan could do a lot of things.

Some daughters from poor families can even get married with 500 yuan!
Liu Dageng didn't know Liu Xing's thoughts, he looked at the sky and said: "Since I borrowed it, I won't ask, but we have encountered a problem in weaving the dustpan. Nanzhu consumes a lot, and I'm afraid I will go to the village tomorrow. Other villagers bought Nanzhu."

"Then go!" Liu Xing said.

Sister Zhang's soy bean shop is in great demand for dustpans now. If you don't seize this opportunity to make money at this time, you may never meet them in the future.

As for Nanzhu, there are several surrounding villages, enough for their family to produce 10,000+.

"But there is still one problem!" Liu Dageng looked at Liu Huaqing who was on the side: "I made a calculation with your fourth uncle before, and the net profit is very high for a dustpan of two yuan, excluding labor and materials, but in case The sister Zhang you talked about is suddenly gone, so the dustpan we hired to make and the bamboo we bought in large quantities will rot in the house?"

"What does father mean?" Liu Xing frowned.

Although he didn't like what his father said just now, the hidden worries and hidden dangers highlighted in it were true.

Buying a large number of Nanzhu requires money, whether it is tens of yuan or hundreds of yuan, once it is confirmed that all the risks will be borne by his father alone, and now he has hired someone to do the work.

Although Sister Zhang's current tempeh shop urgently needs the dustpan made by his family, and it is an unlimited variety, but can he 100% guarantee that things will not change in the next few days?Will suddenly not want his dustpan?

Even Sister Zhang said that the business of the soy bean shop is good, but I am afraid that the golden bean steamer will not be able to be used. At that time, let alone whether the dustpan he made can be sold, I am afraid that the soy bean shop will be closed It is estimated that the reason why my father has such worries is because he heard about the golden bean steamer at Mingchen Restaurant.

And if there is a contract, then all problems will be solved. At least it can make people feel at ease, knowing the real demand for dustpans in the tempeh shop.

But now that Sister Zhang has such a good relationship with him, how could she talk about the contract?
"Dad, you're worrying too much!" Liu Xing finally chose to believe Zhang Xiaoying after thinking about it for a long time: "Don't worry about buying Nanzhu! I'll be responsible for anything that happens."

"I'm afraid you won't be able to take responsibility at that time!" Liu Dageng said earnestly. In his mind, Liu Xing was still a child after all.

"Then what are you going to do? You don't plan to make dustpans without Nanzhu and the specific quantity?" Liu Xing spread his hands amusedly: "Now I finally know why you are so poor and can't make money, and you always go to Fear of wolves and tigers is like a frog in a well without vision."

Without waiting for his father Liu Dageng to refute, Liu Xing paused for a moment and continued: "Let me tell you the truth! Sister Zhang's fermented bean shop, you can buy five yuan per catty of fermented bean, which is higher than the price of pork, and what you don't know is , because Zhang Jie’s fermented soybeans have a secret recipe that other families can’t imitate, and the fragrance is unique, which are exported to other provinces. Our family’s dustpan is exactly what Zhang Jie needs to increase the production of fermented soybeans. At this time, you are afraid that Zhang Jie will not want it. Isn’t it a bit funny?"

"This……"

"This one……"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Dageng and Liu Huaqing's old faces were obviously red, even Zhu Meiling was a little embarrassed, they couldn't figure it out, how could the older they live, the better they behaved than a child!
But Liu Xing knew the reason for this, that is, in the countryside, they value money too much. After all, they know the taste of poverty, and they know that a penny and a dime are hard to come by.

In the past, as long as they had spare money, they would save it for a rainy day. This was not because they were frugal, but because farmers couldn't afford to lose money.

Once you lose money, the whole family will be over.

Because there are too many places to spend money.

Liu Xing and his family seem to have made hundreds of dollars in making dustpans in the early stage, but if they don’t want it later, they need money to buy bamboo and pay the fourth uncle’s salary. At that time, they will lose money, not just a little, but at least it’s good There are hundreds of dollars.

Therefore, Liu Dageng and Liu Huaqing's worries are correct.

Liu Xing is also right.

What is wrong is that the countryside has not yet developed in this era.

They can afford it, but they can't afford it.

This is the idea of ​​small farmers, and every household in Qingshi Village is like this.

As a reborn person, Liu Xing would not let such thoughts imprison his father. Seeing that no one spoke, he said, "Tomorrow is the [-]th. It's the day of the market. Why don't you all join in the fun and see how other people make money? Then go buy Nanzhu?"

"I'm not going to join in the fun, right?" Fourth Uncle Liu Huaqing said with a smile.

"You go too, and the wages will be paid!" Liu Xing said softly.

"Really?" Fourth Uncle Liu Huaqing couldn't believe it.

Liu Dageng didn't know what kind of medicine Liu Xing bought in the gourd, but he nodded cautiously in agreement.

Now what Liu Xing said in this family is equal to what he said. If he objected, he might still agree in the end. After all, not everyone can make such a big change in his family in a short period of time.

"That's fine, I'll come over early tomorrow morning!" Liu Huaqing happily reached out and patted Liu Xing's shoulder, turned around and left in a hurry.

"Liu Xing, what's so interesting about watching others make money?" Mother Zhu Meiling couldn't help asking.

"You will know when you go tomorrow!" Liu Xing smiled mysteriously, and after parking the motorcycle, he walked towards the third uncle's house.

"I want to go too?" Zhu Meiling stood there dumbfounded.

"En!" Liu Xing nodded without looking back.

Not only the mother is going, but also my younger sister Peanut and Liu Hang. They have stayed at this home for too long, and they don't know that the outside world is changing with each passing day.

"Liu Xing, where are you going?" Liu Dageng shouted at Liu Xing who was walking away.

"It's a small matter to go to Uncle Three!" Liu Xing waved his hand: "Don't worry about me, I'll be back soon."

"Understood!" Liu Dageng sighed softly, and after looking at the time restlessly, he picked up the coat placed by the window and went out.

There is no way, since Liu Xing said that he believes in the proprietress of the tempeh shop, then he must speed up the purchase of bamboo, and if it takes one more day to delay, it will be all money!
