Rebirth in 1984, starting from beekeeping in the mountains

Chapter 70: Playing tricks? (Seeking follow-up reading)
Forcibly concealing his inner excitement, Liao San pretended to look at it again before saying to Fang Hongan, "It looks pretty good! But... it seems that there is a little too much honey this time!"

The ghost mouse relies on buying low and selling high to make a profit.

When receiving the goods, no matter how good the goods are, you have to bargain for them.

When selling goods, no matter how bad the goods are, you have to charge a high price.

There are many ways to lower the price when receiving goods, the most common one is to find faults in the goods.

Last time at Qianmaping Market, Liao San used Shui Mi as an excuse to suppress Fang Hongan.

But then he was slapped in the face by Fang Hongan.

This time, Liao San realized that Fang Hongan's knowledge of honey was far greater than his own.

It is also difficult to find faults in the goods.

So, I thought of making a fuss about the amount of honey.

The last time we agreed on it at the market, the price was 150 kilograms.

But right now, Fang Hongan must weigh at least 250 kilograms.

Liao San knew that, according to common sense, Fang Hongan would also want to sell everything at once.

After all, just through this experience of climbing up from Qianmaping, he had fully experienced how difficult it was to go to the market.

Just find a donkey cart, carry more than 100 kilograms and travel more than ten miles along the mountain road to sell it. After all the trouble, you can only get a dozen yuan more.

Considering the money for the donkey cart and the money for the glass jar, it is really not worth it.

Of course, with the experience of bargaining with Fang Hongan last time, Liao San also knew that the young man in front of him was a very willful person. He was afraid that if he bargained directly, Fang Hongan would turn around and drive him away, so he didn't say it too directly.

This is Fang Hongan.

As soon as Liao San said this, he knew what the devil was thinking. He sneered, "How much? Not much! Just over 260 pounds!"

"I'll sell you 150 kilograms, and I'll keep the rest!"

After saying that, Fang Hongan picked up the scale bar and weight prepared on the side and wanted to weigh the honey for Liao San.

"No hurry! No hurry!"

When Liao San heard Fang Hongan say that it weighed more than 260 kilograms, he became even more excited.

When Liao San heard that Fang Hongan would only give him 150 kilograms and the rest had to be kept, he immediately became anxious and quickly reached out to stop Fang Hongan.

"Brother An!" Liao San apologized with a smile, "Well... why are you still keeping more than a hundred kilograms? Are you going to sell it at the market? That's too much trouble!"

"I'm not going to the market to sell it!" Fang Hongan said casually, "I'm waiting for someone to come..."

Halfway through his speech, Fang Hongan suddenly looked as if he realized that he had accidentally let something slip, and quickly covered his mouth vigilantly.

Then he blinked his eyes and said, "I'll keep it...keep it! I'll eat it myself!"

"Someone is coming..."

Hearing these key words, Liao San's expression suddenly changed.

When he saw Fang Hongan's attempt to cover up his guilt, his heart sank, and the expression on his face froze.

More than 100 kilograms of honey for your own consumption?
What a liar!
and so……

It was obvious that he let the secret slip and someone came to collect it!
There is...someone!

Thinking of this, Liao San's eyes narrowed and he instantly thought of someone.

Last time……

The time when he bought the honey from Fang Hongan.

In fact, he was not the only ghost rat in Qianmaping market at that time.

One of them had a close relationship with him. His name was Pang Wang. He had shifty features and bad eyesight. He always wore a pair of glasses. People in the gang called him Pang Siyan.

Pang Siyan and Liao San entered the business at about the same time. Originally, they had a very close relationship. Whenever they encountered any information about receiving or shipping goods, they would share what they had with each other. They were considered a good pair in the business.

But later, Liao San discovered that Pang Siyan was a man without martial ethics. Not only did he often keep things from him, he also secretly tripped him up and tried to deprive him of the means to receive and ship goods.

Liao San and Pang Siyan parted ways unhappily and gradually drifted apart.

Last time at Qianmaping Market, Liao San discovered that Pang Siyan had also arrived at the market after he had harvested the honey.

At that time, Pang Si saw him collect the things and kept asking what he collected.

Afterwards, Liao San returned to the county town, and when he was selling honey on the black market in the county town, he was coincidentally seen by Pang Siyan.

At that time, Liao San produced dozens of kilograms of honey a day, which caused a small sensation in the black market.

Many people came to inquire about the method of collecting honey, and the most enthusiastic among them was Pang Siyan.

With the previous lesson in mind, Liao San would definitely not reveal Fang Hongan's method to others.

Pang Siyan was sent away, but then...

Then I heard that Pang Siyan also went to find honey.

At that time, Liao San didn't take it seriously, thinking that Pang Siyan was going to the market to find a way like he did before.

But now I think about it, it may not be the case at all.

With Pang Siyan's smart brain, he should be able to guess with a little analysis that the honey he collected was from Qianmaping Market.

At that market, Fang Hongan sold more than 100 kilograms of pork in retail sales.

As long as Pang Siyan went to Qianmaping Market to inquire, it would not be difficult to find out that Fang Hongan was from Shiwan Village.

Then, according to Pang Siyan's nature...

Thinking of this, Liao San didn't dare to think any further.

He stared at Fang Hongan closely and found that Fang Hongan had an awkward smile on his face as if trying to hide something, and he would touch his nose with his hand from time to time.

This situation is exactly the same as when he lied to others.

This made him more certain of his judgment.

There must be someone... who came to him during this period to buy his honey.

This person is also a ghost rat!

And... Liao San has sufficient reason to suspect that it is most likely the sinister Pang Siyan!
At this moment, Liao San's mood hit rock bottom.

He tried hard to force a smile: "Well... Brother Fang! There's no one else here, so let's not try any pretentious tricks! You're a beekeeper who collects honey, but you keep more than 100 kilograms of honey for yourself... If you tell this to others, no one will believe it!

If my guess is correct... maybe there are other ghost rats looking for you too?"

After saying this, he did not give Fang Hongan a chance to quibble, and said with an expression that he had seen through everything: "This person... should be - Pang Siyan!"

Seeing that Liao San had taken the bait, Fang Hongan was delighted, but on the surface he still showed his Oscar-level acting skills, still with an awkward smile on his face. He did not directly answer Liao San's question, but only muttered: "This..."

Liao San's face was filled with anger, and he deliberately provoked: "Brother Fang! This is not good enough! I am cooperating with you sincerely! Are you still hiding it from me? This is not very kind!"

"All right!"

Seeing that the time was right, Fang Hongan's expression immediately turned into one of being touched. He nodded and looked at Liao San sincerely:

"Yes! But... I don't know if he is the Pang Siyan you mentioned. He only said his last name is Pang! He didn't say his name!"

"Oh! He also wore a pair of... glasses!"
