Rebirth 1988 Farming and Raising Children

Chapter 45 Insufficient Greed
After Jiang Ancheng flipped through these water-soaked lilies, he said mercilessly: "We don't accept these."

Luo Houzi, who was hiding in the dark, jumped out immediately and shouted at Jiang Ancheng: "Why don't you accept it? If you don't accept it, if you dare to fool us, I will smash your scale!"

Mother Luo yelled in a moment of excitement: "You bully others, remember to hate our kid, we all grew up together, you are the one who behaves like this!"

"You must give us an explanation today!"

Jiang Ancheng laughed, "Explain, I will give you an explanation."

He casually grabbed a handful of wild lilies in front of Luo Mu's eyes, pointed at the flower stem and said, "It's fine if the leaves haven't been shaved, but the flower stem is still so long, do you really think I don't know how to measure it?"

Luo Houzi jumped up and quibbled, "It doesn't matter if it's more or longer. You can sell it. It doesn't look good without leaves. It's two cents a catty, and it's so fucking fussy!"

Jiang Ancheng sneered, picked up the bouquet upside down, and threw it on the ground. Under the light, a wet water mark suddenly appeared.

The villagers immediately knew why Jiang Ancheng didn't accept him.

If you leave more leaves and longer poles, everyone will take advantage of it. However, if you put so much water in it, the original one or two hundred catties of flowers will suddenly increase by ten or twenty catties. That’s not money. ah!
Whose money is blown by the wind.

Especially the people in the mountains, they value every penny very much.

This is really outrageous.

Everyone pointed to Luo Houzi and Luo Mu and said, "Ancheng doesn't accept you, you deserve it."

"That's right, if you make a lot of money, An Cheng will lose at least a few cents. If it's too much, it will be several dollars, hundreds of dollars! You can't be too greedy."

"An Cheng collects wild flowers. Everyone makes money. It's a happy thing. Seeing what you guys do, I really don't feel ashamed."

Mother Luo's face turned red and white, and the son told her to just sprinkle a little so that no one would notice.

Who knows, he made a lot of things, and Jiang Ancheng did the same. He didn't even give face to his elders, and he insisted on speaking out in front of many people, embarrassing their mother and child.

But all the flowers have been brought back, and the family has made money, and they will make so much every day in the future.

Jiang's mother became anxious again, fearing that she might hit her hand, she forced an explanation to Jiang Ancheng: "It's all dew, and...and we fell into the pond when we came back, that's why there's so much water, Ancheng Ah, we didn't do it on purpose, you just accept it, you can count a little less."

Luo Houzi was still licking, "Don't worry about it, just shake it with water. Our flowers are the most beautiful here. He gave five cents a catty, and he took a big deal."

Everyone shook their heads, marveling at Luo Houzi's amazing face.

Jiang Ancheng wasn't used to them either, "Even if the water-soaked buds can bloom, the petals are wrinkled. You should go find someone else for a bargain."

Mother Luo slapped Luo Houzi a few times, and said flatteringly, "An Cheng, it's because he is ignorant. You are two years older than him, so don't argue with him. It doesn't matter if you count less. Let's go up the mountain. I almost fell on my head, so you just accept it, or if you don’t accept it, I will sit at the door of your house."

After her man died, it was really not easy to bring up her son. She often saw her going up the mountain alone to collect fungi to get medicinal materials and sell them in the city. She was more willing to endure hardships than men.

Seeing her crying pitifully, Jiang Ancheng hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's all a penny and a catty, and I'll take it if I want it."

Luo Houzi jumped again, "Your heart is darker than the crows in the sky!" Luo's mother was afraid that every penny and catty would be thrown into her hands, so she hurriedly stopped him and said, "We sell, sell, sell everything." She asked cautiously : "If tomorrow's flowers are good, can I accept them?"

Why do you think so much about making money.

It is not wrong to accept even the enemy's.

Jiang Ancheng nodded, "As long as the flowers are good, I will definitely accept them."

Luo Houzi disagreed, feeling ashamed, one penny was one catty, and after getting so much money, it was only a little over two yuan, and what to do with so much effort.

He stepped on the lily and said viciously, "Even if I use it as firewood, I won't sell it to you!"

"Snapped--"

Luo's mother slapped him bitterly, "Get lost!"

Luo Houzi looked resentful, pointing at Jiang Ancheng and leaving an old saying: "You wait for me!"

Luo's mother wiped away her tears, and said to Jiang Ancheng in a soft voice: "Ancheng, leave him alone, he can fart, help me calculate the money."

Jiang Ancheng gave Luo Mu two yuan and sixty cents, Chen Yufei helped the wet lily up, put a bucket in it to wake up the flowers alone, rescued it, and restored its quality.

Luo Mu's pile of lilies is beautiful in color and quite a lot.

If the settlement is normal, Luo Mu can get at least five or six yuan.

Unfortunately, greed is not enough, just take it as a lesson.

Brother Datang came back from the village next door, and when he got the news that the wild lilies could be sold for money, everyone went into the mountain, and he didn’t know the specific requirements. The wild lilies that were harvested were basically opened, or the big ones that were about to open soon bud.

This kind, Jiang Ancheng doesn't want.

Seeing the mother-in-law and the second sister-in-law laughing with the money, the sister-in-law in the lobby hurriedly winked at the brother-in-law and asked him to go to Jiang Ancheng to sell favors.

The eldest brother is an honest man, he doesn't want to embarrass Jiang Ancheng, and he can't stand his daughter-in-law's constant urging and nagging.

The children in the family are also eagerly waiting to sell flowers and eat candy.

He gritted his teeth, and moved up to Jiang Ancheng in embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "Ancheng, can we harvest those flowers?"

As soon as Jiang Ancheng raised his eyes, he stammered and said nervously, "No, it doesn't matter if you can't."

Jiang Ancheng walked over and looked around at their lilies.

The lobby sister-in-law was so nervous that she couldn't stop laughing.

The cold chain transportation of lily flowers will be divided into five grades, the first grade is completely in the shape of a bud, the second grade is slightly exposed, the third grade is half-extended petals, the fourth grade is all flower centers, and the fifth grade is fully expanded.

It's not that lilies with fully expanded petals can't be sold at a price. On the contrary, many customers like the delicate and beautiful blooms. It's just that they are in the mountains, and the damage is serious when they are transported out. If there is a slight bump, the petals will fall off.

Brother Datang, these flowers are basically around the fourth degree, the flower heart is all exposed, and the remaining flower bones are also around the third degree.

To be honest, he didn't really want to accept it, but if he shipped it out and sold it casually, he would definitely not lose money.

Pack a few bouquets in a special plate-tied style display, and these four-degree lilies are just right.

Jiang Ancheng said straightforwardly, "I'll take every penny."

The lobby brother showed joy, and the lobby sister-in-law coughed lightly, wanting the lobby brother to call Jiang Ancheng to raise the price again.

A penny is too little.

The flower bloomed well, and it took so much effort to take care of it, but the mushrooms were not worth the money. The lobby wife caught a look of pity in the eyes of the second sister-in-law, and her heart was extremely unbalanced.
