Nongwomen's Spring

Chapter 156: Sending Business (4)
Seeing that Zhang Qian had been talking for so long, Liu Jun on the side was worried that she would slurp, so he brought the boiled water brought by Dahu's wife to her just now, and said softly, "After talking for so long, your mouth is dry, drink some water Moisturize your throat, let me handle the next thing."

Zhang Qian looked up at him, took the boiled water in his hand, smiled, touched the edge of the bowl, drank a few mouthfuls of boiled water, and listened quietly to the man next to him showing his budding courage. Zhang Dahu was talking.

"Mr. Zhang, our young couple came here today mainly because Zhangjia Village is the place where my wife was born. Otherwise, we wouldn't entrust you with this great business of improving the life of the whole village. There are some things that have passed through this village. If Village Chief Zhang doesn't want to participate in this shop, it's okay, according to the current prestige of our Liu Family Workshop, if we want to cooperate with other villages, any village can think about it."

Zhang Dahu glanced at Liu Jun, his deep eyes covered by his eyebrows. After careful consideration, Zhang Dahu raised his head after a long time, "I still don't know what business you entrusted to our village?"

"Raise ducks!" Liu Jun calmly shouted these three words.

As soon as Zhang Dahu heard the words raising ducks, his face immediately pulled down, he stood up from the stool with a bang, pointed to Liu Jun and asked, "Liu, you are not playing tricks on us, are you? How can you make money by raising ducks?" .”

"Who said that ducks are not worth money? You have raised them, and do you know how much a roast duck is sold in the town? Do you know this? If you don't know, please don't fart in front of me first, because you don't This qualification." Liu Jun asked Zhang Dahu sideways with a half-smile.

Zhang Dahu's whole face was green and white. He had been the village chief for several years. In this village, no one had ever dared to speak to him in such a contemptuous tone. This was the first time this happened today.

Liu Jun didn't look at Zhang Dahu's murderous eyes that shot towards him, his expression was calm, and he calmly met Zhang Dahu's eyes that were about to erupt.

"Since you don't know anything, just shut your mouth to me first. We can come here to hand over this business to you, which means we have enough ability to ensure that you won't suffer a loss." Liu Jun squinted coldly. Followed by Zhang Dahu and said.

The atmosphere in the hall was a bit overwhelming, Zhang Erniu looked at the two nervously, fearing that if they couldn't make sense and started a fight, who would he help?

"You two, if you have something to say, let's talk it out. Don't get angry, sit down and talk slowly." Zhang Erniu stood up, walked to Zhang Dahu's side, and pulled him to sit down in the seat just now.

The corner of Liu Jun's mouth twitched slightly, and he smiled silently, took a sip of the bowl of boiled water in front of him, and when he felt that his throat was not as dry as before, he turned his head and continued to look at Zhang Dahu, "Village Chief Zhang , Uncle Er Niu raises ducks, ask him, which one is more profitable than raising ducks or farming?"

Zhang Erniu didn't expect that Liu Jun would throw the question on himself. He was nervous at first, and then under Zhang Dahu's urging, he answered hesitantly, "Last year I raised ducks and sold them to Jun boy, and I made about 20 taels." All the money, just to treat the child's mother, was cheated out."

"What, 20 taels of silver, Zhang Erniu, don't you have someone else to lie to me?" Zhang Dahu was shocked when he heard Zhang Erniu's words. Even if you plant 20 taels of land, you can't earn 20 taels of silver.

Zhang Erniu's complexion became a little ugly. He is honest and right, but what he dislikes the most is that others suspect him of misbehavior, "Village chief, how can you say that, what you just said not only You have insulted me, Zhang Erniu, and you have insulted handsome boy, and I have always respected you in vain."

Zhang Dahu was stunned, and saw Zhang Erniu looking at him with unfriendly eyes, and then realized what he said just now, his old face flashed with embarrassment, and he said to Zhang Erniu in a low voice, "Brother Erniu, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It wasn't intentional, so don't blame it."

"Hmph... I can forgive you for the first time this happened, but if it happens again, I really won't forgive you." Zhang Erniu snorted coldly, watched Zhang Dahu teach a lesson.

Zhang Dahu just heard the amount of silver reported by Zhang Erniu, and his heart was moved. There are too many people in their village, and there is not enough land. Many young people have gone out to do odd jobs. If he really takes over this business, Zhangjia Village It is no longer a village without young people. In the future, it will be seen which village dares to bully Zhangjia Village at will.

"Cough... I can think about raising ducks for a while." Zhang Dahu said to Liu Jun with a blushing face.

Who is Liu Jun? Last year's business career had taught him to guess other people's thoughts through their facial expressions. Zhang Dahu's constantly changing facial expressions had already given him a good guess.

"Okay, I'll give you three days to think about it. If we don't receive any reply from you after three days, then I can only hand over this business to other villages." Liu Jun looked at Zhang Dahu and said.

Zhang Dahu nodded awkwardly, everyone chatted together for a short time, seeing that it was getting late, there were two little fellows at home and a patient waiting for them to take care of them, so he bid farewell to Zhang Dahu and others, the young couple just now Come out from Zhangjiacun.

The ox cart was walking slowly on the small road. Along the way, Zhang Qian would meet many married women who were going back to their natal homes.

Liu Jun, who was driving the bullock cart, turned his head and took a peek at the woman leaning behind him. Several times, he seemed to have something to say but didn't say it.

Zhang Qian naturally sensed the frequent movements of the people behind her. After the bullock cart walked for a while, Zhang Qian suddenly asked, "Sir, if you have anything to ask, just ask! You have been holding back all this time Isn't it uncomfortable?"

Liu Jun pursed his lips and smiled, and after a while, he slowly said what he kept in his heart, "Xiaoqian, do you have a bad relationship with your father-in-law and mother-in-law? Otherwise, why have you come to Zhangjiacun? Go in and see them!"

"Well, it's really not good, my husband, have I told you about my past?" Zhang Qian moved her buttocks, and moved her seat to the position where she was sitting shoulder to shoulder with Liu Jun.

Liu Jun, who was driving the bullock cart, was startled when he saw her sitting on the edge of the cart, and held her with one hand to prevent her from falling.

After supporting her for a while, Liu Jun was sure that she would not fall, so he nodded and responded, "I never said that!"

Zhang Qian carefully recalled the memories left by her predecessor, and slowly compiled them into words to Liu Jun beside her, "How should I put it, in the past 17 years, since I was sensible, they have treated me as a stranger Like people, if I want to be full in that family, I have to work, and if I don’t do enough work that they ask me to do, I will go hungry that day.”
