Chapter 57 Very helpless (recommended ticket for collection)
"Boss, I buy a lot of things, it's cheaper."
In front of the booth, a rough-looking male college student said to Lu Dong, "I'm from the School of Finance. I heard that you sell cheaper than the store, so I came from there."
When Lu Dong moved here, he posted a relocation notice, and from time to time, students from the School of Finance would come to buy things.
"Okay!" Lu Dong was not dead-headed.
The five-year-old male student asked tentatively, "Did you wipe off the fraction when you settled the account?"
Lu Dong has always done this, just when he saw Song Na coming over on a bicycle, he replied casually, "No problem."
Song Na carried two small woven bags on the beam of her bicycle, parked the car and moved down.
Lu Dong and Qiao Weiguo were both greeting business, and they didn't have time to help.
A farm girl who often works and can move down by herself without any help.
The male student who was five or three thick asked the price and chose a lot of things. He should not only buy it for himself, but also buy several pieces of one kind of goods.
For example, he took three boxes of essential oils, three boxes of soap and so on.
"Boss, settle the account." He handed the picked items to Lu Dong.
Lu Dong did a little calculation and said, "There are 64 in total, you can just give me 60."
The male student who was five or three thick said, "Is this account wrong?" Without waiting for Lu Dong to speak, he grabbed the goods and said, "Three boxes of air essence, 12 in total, 10 yuan after subtracting the fraction; 13 yuan for three boxes of soap, 5 yuan, remove The fraction is also 10 yuan; three plastic pots are 15 yuan, and the fraction is still 10 yuan, and…”
Lu Dong stopped him from continuing: "This classmate, according to your calculation, I can't do this business."
People can't look at appearances, so a man with five big and three rough, can be so calculating.
The five-year-old male student was unhappy: "Boss, it's a matter of words, let's talk about erasing the fraction."
This kind of cheap cleverness, Lu Dong has seen many times, knows how to deal with it, and said with a smile: "Classmate, 60 yuan, a two-way choice for business, if you think it is expensive, I can't force you."
The five-year-old male student muttered a few words, and finally took out the money.
took out a convenient bag to pack things, and before the boy left, Lu Dong handed him a plastic fan that cost 50 cents: "It's not easy for you to come here, I'll give you a fan."
The male student took advantage and immediately laughed: "Boss, you are righteous, I will come to you next time."
Lu Dong smiled and waved: "Okay, walk slowly."
Next to , Song Na spread two pieces of plastic sheeting, one with some walnuts poured on it, the other was temporarily empty, she was digging something out of the woven bag.
"You often meet people like this?" Song Na looked at the male student who was walking away.
Lu Dong would have no customers, so he walked a few steps over there and said, "Everyone wants to be greedy, it's normal."
Song Na took out a sunflower flower tray: "You are in a good mood, not like before."
Lu Dong said very naturally: "In the past two months after school, I have seen many people and things, and found that I was too naive, ignorant, and only making jokes at school."
Song Na picked out a large flower tray and threw it over: "Grow it at home, you can try it."
Lu Dong caught it, returned it, pointed to the plastic sheet she had just put on: "It's too big, just give me a small one."
Without waiting for Song Na's consent, he put down the big one, picked the smallest one, split it apart, gave one piece to Qiao Weiguo, and another to Lao Zhao, who sold sesame seeds in the east.
The raw melon seeds are not so delicious, in fact, they are fresh.
Song Na picked up a large walnut, threw it on the ground a few times, opened it, picked out the walnut kernel, and handed it to Lu Dong: "Try it."
Lu Dong took it and threw it into his mouth, it was a bit astringent, more sweet and fragrant.
"It's all grown by your family?" Lu Dong asked.
Song Na threw two walnuts to Qiao Weiguo and replied, "In the mountains, the yield of grain is low."
Qiao Weiguo looked at the hard-skinned walnuts in his hands, and at Lu Dong's walnut kernels, wondering why.
He gave Lao Zhao one walnut and put the other on the checkered brick, raised his palm with his fingers, adjusted his breath with luck, and slapped it down with a slap.
Snapped--
Qiao Weiguo's hand trembled a little, unlike what he expected, the walnut was as stable as an old dog.
Look at both sides, fortunately no one is paying attention, or you will be embarrassed by Shimen.
Sure enough, if you can’t get home with kung fu practice, you have to work harder.
raised the palm of his luck again, and slapped it hard.
Kacha——
Qiao Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief, and hid his hands behind his back and kept shaking. The walnut skin was too thick!
Recently, I followed Lv Dong to sell goods in the university town. The practice is a bit wasteful. I have to start early tomorrow, and my homework cannot stop.
It was almost noon, and people came out of the school one after another. The three booths were doing well. Needless to say, what Song Na sells is very common to rural people, but many students from cities are very curious, especially Sunflower flower plate.
"Walnuts are hard to open." A student said.
Lu Dong is right here: "The dormitory door is opened, and the walnut is stuffed in the crack of the door, just squeeze it open."
The student thought for a while and said, "It seems to work."
Lu Dong said: "Absolutely."
There is no professional walnut tongs, this is one of the relatively convenient ways to open walnuts, but it is not good for the door.
Lu Dong felt that the students would definitely not mind.
The students were looking for something fresh, and Song Na didn’t have a lot of things, and they sold quickly. After a while, she told Lu Dong, she simply dragged over the sunscreen, and continued to show up to help sell it.
Now everyone advocates one white to cover three ugly, not to the point where cosmetics don't even dare to say "bright white". Song Na's living example is here, and sunscreen sells very well.
When the stall was closed at 7:00, Song Na sold all the walnuts and sunflower flower trays that she had pulled. She could only get a hundred yuan, but she helped Lu Dong sell sunscreen for more than 400 yuan.
Lu Dong wanted to give Song Na money according to the business rules, but Song Na said nothing.
"Do you know how much I earned from selling buffaloes this summer?" Song Na said seriously: "It wasn't you who gave the news, I didn't even know how to catch it. Do you want me to give you money too?"
Lu Dong didn't say anything else, he planned to wait for Song Na to start school and give her a school start suit.
Mosquito repellent and toiletries are the main ones. As for sunscreen, Song Na probably won't want it, it doesn't work for her.
In the past few days, the day was fine, but it was cloudy in the evening, and today is no exception.
Lu Dong took the drag bucket back, and when he was about to reach the Liuwan intersection, there was thunder at first, and then the raindrops fell down, with a tarpaulin covering the drag bucket, so there was no need to worry about the rest of the goods getting wet.
The rain fell too fast, Lu Dong stopped and put on a raincoat, he was soaking wet, the heavy rain blocked his vision, and he slowly rode back.
When we approached the entrance of the village, there was someone riding a bicycle in front, it should be a woman.
Lu Dong passed by and glanced at him: "Gu Minglan? It's so late?"
The seventh uncle married diagonally opposite the door. The Li family of the village who married gave them a fan from Pacific Insurance last time.
Her target was Uncle Li who helped Lu Dong on the platform at noon that day.
Lv Minglan saw that it was Lu Dong, wiped the rain on her face, and said, "Someone in Liu Wan wants to buy insurance, I'll go check it out, I'll be back a bit late."
It is not easy to run insurance, especially in the following market, even in this era, the reputation of insurance is not good.
Ordinary people, if you want to make money, it is not easy to do anything.
Lv Minglan reminded: "Dongzi, it's raining heavily, be careful!"
"Good!" Lu Dong replied.
Lu Dong quickly entered the village and went north along Ji Street. When he passed by the door of Li Wenyue's house, Li Wenyue was standing at the gate.
Far away, he shouted: "Fujiko! Tokoko!"
Lu Dong rode his bike over and asked, "What's the matter?"
Li Wenyue stood on the edge of the rain and said, "I asked someone to ask. Tian Dabang called Pan Dongzi after he went to the south, and I asked for the contact information."
Pan Dongzi is also a nickname, Tian Chuanjie's senior year classmate.
Lu Dong said: "Give me the contact information, I will go to the brigade to make a call."
Li Wenyue was obviously waiting for Lu Dong here, just when he was about to give the paper in his hand, when he saw his like a chicken in soup, he simply picked up the umbrella next to him and opened it: "I'll go with you, you go first, I'll be there in a while. ."
Lu Dong nodded, and soon rode into the brigade's yard. The brigade's office was lit, and Lu Zhenlin and Li Wenyue, his second uncle, hadn't left.
After taking off his raincoat under the rain in front of the house, Lu Dong entered the house wetly, shouted, and said, "Third grandpa, I want to make a phone call."
"Call." Lu Zhenlin pointed to the phone on the other side.
In Qingzhao area, there are very few privately owned telephones in rural areas. The telephone and telephone charges are not expensive, but the expensive initial installation fee and landline fee can make people cry.
Lu Zhenlin and Li Wenyue and his second uncle were discussing matters. It seemed that Lu Zhenlin wanted to cut down and sell all the trees in the elementary school as a start-up fund for Lujia Village.
There are hundreds of big trees in the primary school, and there are dozens of trees that cannot be hugged by an adult. There are many high-quality elms and locust trees, which can be called the largest collective property of Lujia Village.
The two of them just had this idea, and they still need to plan.
Li Wenyue came over quickly, Lu Dong took the note and dialed the number on it, someone over there picked up quickly, and a chorus-like singing could be vaguely heard in addition to the voices of the people.
"Are you classmate Tian Chuanjie?" Opposite the southern accent, he heard a little surprise when he heard the identity of his classmate: "Wait a minute, I'm called Chuanjie."
"Chuanjie! Your classmate's phone number."
Soon, Tian Chuanjie's voice sounded from the receiver, and Lu Dong asked, "Cuanjie, how are you over there?"
Tian Chuanjie was very excited: "Fuuji, I came here to open my eyes, the money is so good! Really! You also hurry up..."
"and many more……"
Without waiting for Lu Dong to speak, Tian Chuanjie continued: "It's really good to earn, come here and I promise you to make a lot of money..."
Lu Dong reminded Tian Chuanjie several times, but he was interrupted without exception. Originally, he wanted to come back from work for Tian Chuanjie, but later it became Tian Chuanjie's passionate encouragement to go to the south to make a fortune.
Tian Chuanjie fell into a kind of frenzy and couldn't listen to it at all. Lu Dong said something, I don't know if he didn't hear it, or just ignored it, all of which were instilling in Lu Dong the idea of making a lot of money.
Lu Dong could only put down the phone in the end, and the paleness and powerlessness of his words were unmistakable.
Very helpless.
Lu Dong sighed and thought about it carefully, what else could be done?
looks like ten cows... no, the locomotive can't be pulled back.
Husband is trapped in, his wife is pulled in, his wife is pulled in by his wife, his wife is pulled in by his wife, and his wife is pulled in by his neighbor...
The manpower is sometimes exhausted, and he has nothing to do.
was thinking, when suddenly the lights went out and the power went out.
Power outages are very common when it rains. Lv Dong helped find the candles. When they were just lit, a call came in. The power supply company informed them that in the electrical buildings in several villages such as Lujia, Liuwan and Majia, the leakage protector burned out. , there may be a power outage for a while.
(At that time, it was called the power supply station, and it was called the power supply company. It doesn’t seem to be very sensitive? There is a story behind it.)
