Chapter 46

"elder brother".The little girl yelled childishly. She was wearing a bright red jacket, which made her face blush, which was indescribably cute.

Su Keyan smiled and said to Lianzi: "That's my mother and my younger sister, and the one in the sedan chair in front is my grandmother."

Lianzi nodded and said, "Then you go back first."

She glanced at the sedan chair again. The sedan chair in front was closed tightly.Looking at the one in the back, Su Keyan's mother was watching the two children approaching with a smile, her face was so gentle that Lianzi couldn't help but develop a good impression of her.

Su Keyan said goodbye to Lianzi, and walked towards his mother together with Su Kewen.

Lianzi watched them go, and got into the bullock cart herself.Liu Jingren yelled and slapped his whip on the cow's buttocks, and the bullock cart creaked and returned along the way it had come.

When I got home, it was time to make dinner.Yang put down her things, washed her hands and went to the kitchen.Added firewood to the stove, stewed the big bones, and cleaned up pasting pancakes and cooking vegetables.

Lianzi's family is eating, and shopkeeper Zhang's is also eating.The only difference is that the food on the dining table of the shopkeeper Zhang's house is many times richer than that of Lian Zi's house.

But despite this, Zhang Zihe still lost his temper because he didn't eat peanut snacks.

One of his playmates showed him some pastries from home, and was very mean, and only gave him a bite.Who is Zhang Zihe?How could he tolerate such a thing, he immediately asked the cheapskate where he bought it, and threatened that he would directly buy the dim sum maker home.

When I heard from the manager Wang in the shop that it was Lianzi's family, I was very distressed and insisted on going to Liujiazhuang tomorrow.After being drunk by shopkeeper Zhang, he stopped crying.

Shopkeeper Zhang was also thinking about this matter. He heard from Manager Wang that they were all sold out before noon, which seemed to be a good sale.

All the things in her family were handed over to his shop for sale in the past, why now they set up a stall to sell them?

This shopkeeper Zhang is really not sure, but what he can be sure of is that if they can cooperate, then he will have another big profit.

After the meal, shopkeeper Zhang also made a decision, the money cannot be left for nothing.

The next day, Lianzi had finished her breakfast and was just about to go out to look at the fields. Unexpectedly, she only heard a sound of horseshoes, and a carriage covered with a blue cloth stopped at the door of her house. The driver was an unfamiliar boy. .

It's really strange, in the village, even donkeys are not common, let alone horses, let alone, they are still parked in front of their own houses.

Lianzi knew that there must be something important, so she hurriedly called Yang Shi and Liu Jingren.

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Yang was washing the dishes, when she heard Lianzi calling her, she hurried out of the main room to see what happened.

In a short time, a person got off the carriage.

"Niece Lianzi, long time no see."

The person who came was none other than Shopkeeper Zhang.

When Lianzi saw it was him, she probably guessed his purpose, but still greeted him with a smile: "Yes, why did shopkeeper Zhang come in person?"

Shopkeeper Zhang waved his hand with a smile, shook his head and said, "Zihe insisted on eating the dim sum made by your family, so I just happened to drop by to see what kind of dim sum it was, which made him not even eat, and made a big fuss .”

"Hey, what did shopkeeper Zhang say? It's just for fun, and I can't do it." Yang came out of the main room, smiled and let shopkeeper Zhang go in and sit down.

Shopkeeper Zhang was also polite, went straight into the main room, and sat down on a low stool.

Mrs. Yang poured him a bowl of boiling water, and said apologetically, "Don't be disgusted, there is no tea at home, so I can only drink some hot water to relieve the cold."

Shopkeeper Zhang repeated "Where" in his mouth, picked up the bowl, blew lightly, and took a sip along the edge of the bowl.

"This is the dim sum made by my family, take it back to Zihe." Lianzi took out a bag of dim sum left at home.

Yang also followed suit: "Yes, this was made earlier, there is only so much left, if you still want to eat, I will send it after I make it."

Shopkeeper Zhang waved his hand, and said seriously: "Where can I trouble you to send it?" He said, opening a corner of the oil-paper bag, "Well, it's really delicious, no wonder the kid insisted on eating it, and he couldn't get angry if he couldn't eat it. It's like something."

Mrs. Yang hurriedly said modestly, "vulgar things are not worth mentioning" and so on, and by the way, she asked shopkeeper Zhang to drink water.

Shopkeeper Zhang drank some water, chatted with Liu Jingren and Mrs. Yang for a while, and then turned back to the dim sum. It didn't look like he was passing by at all.

"Sister Liu, how did you make this? It's so fragrant." Shopkeeper Zhang asked Yang.

Mrs. Yang hurriedly laughed and said, "Oh, shopkeeper Zhang, you really flattered me. It's either something rare, or it's made with peanuts grown in your own field."

Shopkeeper Zhang disagreed: "Where's the flattery? It's really good."

Seeing that Yang Shi just smiled and didn't speak any more, he asked Liu Jingren, "How is the sale?"

Liu Jingren smiled honestly: "It's not bad."

Shopkeeper Zhang had already guessed that it must be selling well, and Liu Jingren said it was okay, so it must be very good.

He laughed twice, stroked the sparse beard on his chin, waited for a while, shook his head and sighed: "It's not easy, it's not easy to set up a stall. When my father was born, he started from selling roasted seeds and nuts. At that time, it was really not easy." His face was serious, as if recalling the difficult years before.

"Well, yes, at the beginning, everything was not easy." Lianzi continued.

Based on what she knew about shopkeeper Zhang, she was probably about to fall into a trap.With a simple temperament like his parents, I'm afraid he will be caught in a few words.

Shopkeeper Zhang nodded and said "Yes", after a pause, he said, "Why don't you put this dim sum in my shop and sell it, and then we'll pack it carefully, and I'm afraid it won't be a problem to sell it for eighty yuan a catty."

Since he came to the door in person, he must have found out the price. Knowing that Lianzi's family set up a stall in the market, it only sold forty yuan a catty, and he doubled it in one fell swoop.

After he finished speaking, he waited for the family to reply. Unexpectedly, neither Liu Jingren, Yang Shi, nor Lianzi, who had the most idea, would say anything.

Shopkeeper Zhang was a little confused, and then he thought about it, and said, "How about we split the money from the sale fifty-fifty?"

Finally came the point, the [-]-[-] share is indeed the highest share, at first glance she doesn't suffer, but Lianzi still has her own ideas.

Yang did some calculations in her mind, and divided it fifty to five, that is, she could get forty Wen per catty, which was the same as the money she earned per catty when she set up a stall to sell it.

But she didn't agree right away, and it wasn't once or twice to discuss business with shopkeeper Zhang, and she also had a little understanding of his character.

Shopkeeper Zhang saw that the family was still silent, and said again: "I see that it is really not easy for you to set up a stall in the market, but if you put it in my shop and sell it, you can still earn so much money, how much trouble have you saved? You don’t have to get up early and late to go to the market, and you don’t have to sell it yourself. If you’re busy, I’ll send a car to pick up the goods, and you don’t need to deliver them yourself.”

After he finished speaking, there was still no response, and he laughed a little awkwardly: "We have known each other for a year, and our friendship is not shallow."

That is to say, shopkeeper Zhang is only responsible for packaging and consignment sales, and doesn’t care about anything else. He doesn’t care about raw materials or production, just spend more than ten yuan per catty on packaging, and he can get half of the profit. .

Lianzi smiled bitterly in her heart, this is the difference between having a shop and not having a shop, this is the difference between being famous and not being famous.

"That's right, shopkeeper Zhang," Lianzi said.

Shopkeeper Zhang saw that someone had finally spoken, and he was the one who had the right to make a decision, so he immediately listened carefully to what Lianzi had to say.

Lianzi continued: "We wanted to trouble you at the beginning, but to be honest, my family only has two acres of land, even if we planted peanuts, it would only be two acres. Originally, we planned to make the most of the peanuts produced in the field. Yes, I don’t plan to do this for a long time. Our family is here in Liujiazhuang, and our ancestors have been farming for a living, so we still have to focus on land, so we didn’t bother you.”

Hearing what she said, shopkeeper Zhang couldn't be sure whether Lianzi was refusing or wanted to take the opportunity to raise the price.So she followed her words and said, "I have a lot of peanuts in my shop. If you don't have enough peanuts, you can go to my place to get them and give them to you at the purchase price."

"Thank you, shopkeeper Zhang, for your kindness, but for the time being, my family only plans to use up the peanuts produced in our field and stop making them. After the new year, I also want to buy a few more acres of land. I will be busy then. "Lianzi refused again.

buy land?Both Liu Jingren and Yang looked at Lianzi, when did they say they were going to buy land?

Lianzi smiled at them. Although she hasn't said anything yet, it will be a matter of time before she buys land. Just two acres of land is not enough.

"Oh, that's it." Shopkeeper Zhang nodded, and Nian Xu thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "How about this, as long as you do it, send it to my shop, and I promise to help you sell it well."

He still didn't give up, and wanted to persuade the family again, because in his opinion, this matter was not only beneficial to himself, but also beneficial to Lianzi's family, but Lianzi still refused.

If it is said that when she first went to the Jishang to sell it, she was not very sure about it, but now, the market for this dim sum is so good, she has long been determined not to rely on shopkeeper Zhang to sell it.

If we talk about cooperating again, it really saves a lot of worry and effort at that time, but at the same time, we also put the "Zhang Ji" logo on these dim sum.

In the short term, this is indeed a beneficial method for both parties, but if it takes a long time and something happens, if Lianzi wants to withdraw, it will be tantamount to cutting off a source of income for shopkeeper Zhang. How can it be so easy to say? Withdraw immediately.And as long as she manages it well, she will definitely save more and more money. When the time comes to open a shop in the town by herself, won't she earn much more than she does now?

So, this time, no matter what, she will not cooperate with shopkeeper Zhang again.

Shopkeeper Zhang saw that the persuasion was fruitless, and he had no choice but to give up.In order to avoid embarrassment, I chatted about some homework.

"These girls in your family, I like them at first glance. People say that girls are a blessing, and I think it's true." The shopkeeper Zhang talked, and then he talked about the children.

Lianzi only thought that he was talking politely, so she didn't interject.On the contrary, Yang Shi said: "Where is it?

"Hehe, I heard from Zihe that all the girls in your family are doing well." He continued, "Zihe often comes to your house for dinner. It's really troublesome."

Mrs. Yang clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Hey, what are you talking about? How much food can he eat from his family's family? Besides, my family is poor, and there is nothing good. He doesn't dislike me. I'm already very happy, but don't say that it's not troublesome."

Shopkeeper Zhang nodded and smiled, and then said after a while: "Zihe will be nine years old after the new year, and he was enlightened when he was five years old. I want him to take the children's exam in the next year."

"That's a good thing, that kid Zihe is smart, and he's sure to be able to pass." Yang followed suit.In fact, she really likes Zhang Zihe, children, who doesn't have a weird temper.Besides, when Zhang Zihe saw her, his little mouth was so sweet, and when he came to eat at home, he would take the initiative to help light the fire and wash the dishes.Although I can't do it well every time, it's rare to have that kind of heart.

So Yang continued: "After passing the Tongsheng Examination, you will be selected as a scholar, a Jinshi, and a champion. Then you can wait and enjoy your blessings."

Shopkeeper Zhang was also amused by Mrs. Yang's words. Of course, his own children are willing to hear compliments from others.

At this time, his face showed a kindness that Lianzi didn't usually see.

Zhang Zihe would also take the child's exam the year after next, she remembered that Su Keyan also said that he would take the exam the year after next.I just don't know how they will do in the exam.

But Lianzi was very sure in her heart. She hoped and was very sure that Su Keyan would succeed.
