The four people sat down around a square table. Cao Shujie took out two bottles of blue and white Fenjiu. Cao Jianhua knew from the package that the wine was not cheap. On the contrary, Cao Shuchao, who had little experience, really couldn't see the reason.
After unscrewing the bottle cap, Cao Shujie filled the glasses for his father, Cao Jianhua and Cao Shuchao, and finally poured a glass for himself.
"Uncle Hua, Brother Chao, how about trying this wine?" Cao Shujie said with a smile.
Cao Jianhua also asked him how much a bottle of wine cost?
Cao Shujie chuckled: "It's not very expensive. I bought it for my dad when I was working in Beijing two years ago. I kept it without drinking it. It should taste good now."
"It costs more than two hundred yuan a bottle, right?" Cao Jianhua asked.
He runs a supermarket and has a vague idea of the price range of this wine?
Cao Shujie just smiled and didn't say much, but Cao Jianhua knew that he probably guessed right.
My view of Cao Shujie was different again.
Cao Jianguo pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "Brother Jianhua, Shuchao, you guys should eat more. Eat some vegetables first to satisfy your stomach. Drinking alcohol directly can easily ruin your stomach."
What he said was true. The four of them moved their chopsticks, each picked up a chopstick of their favorite dish and stuffed it into their mouths.
Half of the dishes on this table were brought over by Cao Jianhua.
There was wine, and after drinking one glass, the atmosphere was in place. Cao Jianhua hesitated in his heart for a while, and then said: "Brother Jianguo, Shujie, to tell you the truth, I have been feeling very uneasy recently, and I haven't been able to sleep well."
Cao Jianguo has also talked with his son about the market price of pigs and piglets in the past two days, and he doesn't seem to know anything about it.
Hearing Cao Jianhua's bitter tears, Cao Jianguo felt inexplicably emotional. He held the wine glass and said, "Brother Jianhua, don't think about anything tonight. Let's have a good drink."
"Brother Jianguo, drink!" Cao Jianhua then picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Cao Jianguo, and then drank the wine in one gulp.
It was more like he was depressed and was drinking to get drunk.
Cao Shujie shook his head at his father, indicating to drink less.
Cao Jianhua's current state is actually not suitable for drinking and is prone to accidents.
Fortunately, Cao Jianhua's drinking capacity and taste were both good, and he was not knocked down by two glasses of wine.
He put down the wine glass, picked up the tea cup and drank half of it.
Cao Shuchao couldn't drink enough, so he was responsible for the chores. He held a thermos bottle next to him and poured water for the other three people in time.
There is a saying called "Remembering the bitter and thinking of the sweet". Before Cao Jianhua started breeding, his family had hundreds of thousands of savings, which was definitely huge for Caojiazhuang.
Coupled with the fact that his comprehensive supermarket has been continuously generating income for him, he should have been the most enviable family in Caojiazhuang.
However, since the breeding started, Cao Jianhua's family has undergone earth-shaking changes. The good old days are gone forever, and now he is exhausted. At this moment, he only has two words in his heart: "Regret."
At that time, I really should have listened to the advice and not get involved in unfamiliar industries. I thought I was very capable, but in the end I found out that I was anything but.
Looking in front of him with blurry eyes, Cao Jianhua picked up the wine glass again and gestured to Cao Shujie, Cao Jianguo, and Cao Shuchao with their wine glasses: "Brother Jianguo, let's drink another one."
"Brother Jianhua, drink slowly. There is still plenty of wine. Let's talk first, drink some tea and eat something. Don't leave your stomach empty." Cao Jianguo advised him.
Cao Jianhua also listened to the advice, put down his wine glass, and sighed.
Cao Shujie always had a question in his mind. He asked: "Uncle Hua, I have never understood why you suddenly want to do farming when your supermarket is running well."
This is not common sense.
Hearing Cao Shujie's question, Cao Jianhua sighed and said: "This is all my fault for being soft-spoken. I heard that fellow Cao Jianyou said that you were building a pig pen over there and were planning to raise a large number of pigs. I thought that breeding would be an easy job.
In addition, the price of pigs has indeed been rising this year, and I also have some spare money, so I just wanted to invest it and make more money. Who knew that after I got in, I discovered that this was a fucking trap!"
But investment is one's own business, and Cao Jianyou cannot be blamed for this matter.
Cao Shujie frowned when he heard this statement. He asked: "Uncle Hua, this Cao Jianyou you are talking about is..."
"He is the one who works for you with Uncle Zhenggang." Cao Jianhua said.
Cao Shujie finally figured out what was going on, and immediately felt that this matter made people laugh or cry.
Cao Jianhua actually invested hundreds of thousands just by hearing a few words from others. What was he thinking at the time?
Thinking of this, Cao Shujie asked him: "Uncle Hua, when you were planning to start raising pigs, didn't you do any market research?"
"Market research?" Cao Jianhua nodded: "I know, supermarkets usually sell pork. I also went to the market to inquire about it. The price of pigs has been rising since last year. It has been rising for a long time."
Hearing his explanation of "market research", Cao Shujie felt powerless. With such an attitude, could he really make money in an unfamiliar industry?
Thinking of this, he was very curious about the supermarket that Cao Jianhua had been running for so many years. He couldn't sit still even if he was like this.
Then he asked: "Uncle Hua, have you ever encountered any bad times in the years you have been working in the supermarket?"
"When things don't go well?" Cao Jianhua nodded and said without even thinking about it: "If I want to talk about this, I can't finish it in three days and three nights."
He said: "When I first started working in the supermarket, it was not going well and I suffered a lot."
While talking, he asked Cao Shujie: "Shujie, you know, old and outdated things cannot be sold. In order to buy some new things, I rode a motorcycle for 70 or 80 kilometers to the wholesale market in Qingyin County across the Yellow River to purchase goods.
, sometimes I would ride my motorcycle to Pingyuan County to buy goods in the middle of winter. The road back then was much more difficult than it is now.”
"But don't tell me, the fresh gadgets brought back from the wholesale market in Qingyin County and Pingyuan County are easier to sell and more profitable than the goods bought in Qingshi Town." Cao Jianhua thought of his young days and felt that every day seemed like yesterday.
.
When Cao Shujie heard what he said, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Uncle Hua, you see, you have been through so many things before, but you have still survived. I think you will have no problem this time."
"Haha!" Cao Jianhua laughed and said: "Shujie, you don't need to comfort me. In fact, I know in my heart that since the price has dropped, it will definitely fall again, and it may fall below 30 next month.
It’s 300 yuan per kilogram. As for the rest, I don’t think about it. I will continue to raise these 300 pigs, no matter what. I plan to find a good price to sell them before the Spring Festival, so that I can maintain my capital by then.”
After drinking until around nine o'clock in the evening, Mengmeng was already sleepy and went to bed. Cao Jianhua was also a little unsteady on his feet. Wang Yuelan said to his son: "Shujie, go see your Uncle Hua off."
"Well, Mom, you don't need to worry about it. I will definitely send it home." Cao Shujie said.
His father, Cao Jianguo, also went to bed.
Cao Shuchao also said: "Shujie, why don't I go and deliver it."
"I'm fine. Brother Chao, you should go home. My aunt still needs someone to take care of her." Cao Shujie and Cao Jianhua, who was walking tremblingly, were about to go out.
Who would have thought that before they even went out, Daha and Erha started to scream, and Cao Shujie turned to look at them: "You want to go out for a walk?"
"Oh!" Daha's voice immediately became softer and he shook his head, as if he really understood what Cao Shujie said.
Wang Yuelan didn't know what to say: "Shujie, where are you going to walk your dog in the middle of the night? Tomorrow morning."
But who knows that Daha and Erha are not happy. They continue to bark and pull on the leash and run back and forth, as if they feel uncomfortable when they calm down.
When Cao Shujie saw them like this, he quickly said to his mother Wang Yuelan: "Mom, go get me a flashlight. After I drop Uncle Hua off, I will take them to the orchard for a while and then come back."
"Oh, Daha and Erha are really sad." Wang Yuelan was so angry that she wanted to kick them.
But there was no other way. Cao Shujie took Daha and Erha and walked out with Cao Jianhua.
Before they even went out, the two German shepherds also started barking "oh oh".
Wang Yuelan complained: "You can take it away together."
"Hey, you four dogs are really going to find work for me." Cao Shujie kept scolding, but he was not slow to untie the dog leash. He led the four dogs out and walked north with Cao Jianhua.
At this time, the street lights in Caojiazhuang were still on, and several people on the street gathered together to chat.
When they saw Cao Shujie leading four dogs and walking with Cao Jianhua, and smelling the smell of tobacco and alcohol on their bodies, they knew they must have been drinking together.
When they saw the two people and four dogs walking further north, several people pointed at their backs and started chatting.
"What do you think happened to Cao Jianhua and Cao Shujie?"
"Who knows, we poor people should stop caring about others and think about doing some business to make a fortune."
"You only have this little income, look at them, they are doing big business, they invest hundreds of thousands at every turn, how can they not make money!"
"That's right. First of all, you have to be brave. Unlike us, we have to think for a long time even if we spend thousands of dollars, what can we accomplish?"
Cao Shujie didn't know what they were discussing behind them. He and Cao Jianhua came to the door of his house. After watching Cao Jianhua wandering into the house, Cao Shujie led the four dogs and continued walking north.
He planned to go to the orchard on the mountain to see how the calves were eating and whether he wanted to give them a midnight snack.
Next year, I can only count on selling these cows and freshly planted strawberries for money.
After coming up, Cao Shujie felt the cold wind blowing in waves. He was still a little drunk, but now he was sobered by the cold wind.
After opening the door and leading the dog in, Cao Shujie locked the gate on the wire fence and turned on the lights in the orchard. For a moment, it was as bright as day.
After the four dogs came here, they started barking wildly. They couldn't hold it back at home.
Seeing them like this, Cao Shujie smiled, let go of the dog leash, and said to them: "Run away, don't damage the fruit saplings, or I will break your dog legs."
Hearing what Cao Shujie said, the four dogs were startled. As they ran forward, they had to look at the surrounding fruit saplings, fearing that if they were accidentally damaged, they would have to pay with their lives.
Cao Shujie walked towards the calf. When he got there, he saw the calf standing up in a panic under the bright light.
But after seeing Cao Shujie, they lay down on the ground and stopped moving.
When Cao Shujie saw this scene, he also thought it was quite funny. He pointed at the cows and shouted: "Whether they are eating grass or not, hurry up and grow meat."
"Oh woo!"
Cao Shujie was about to go in and spread some fodder for them when he heard a sudden call from a distance.
Cao Shujie was just wondering when he heard the barking of three other dogs, one after the other. He wondered what he had discovered.
Thinking in his mind, Cao Shujie trotted towards the four dogs. As he got closer, he realized that they were surrounding a puppy and trying to scare it.
This dog looks dirty and ugly
He turned around and looked around, but he couldn't see anything wrong.
A doubt lingered in his head, how did this puppy get in?
Looking at the dirt on the puppy, a thought suddenly flashed in Cao Shujie's mind: "Could it be that it got in by scratching the dirt on the ground?"
When he thought of this result, Cao Shujie became a little uneasy. Is this a big loophole in the orchard?
He said to Daha: "Daha, ask where it came in from?"
I didn't have any hope at first, but who knew Daha would actually go and ask.
"Oh woo!"
Daha barked and started communicating with the puppy.
Not to mention, this trick is very effective. After the two dogs, one big and one small, stopped squeaking, the little dog, covered in dirt, turned around and led them in the same direction.
Cao Shujie took a look. Over there was the old orchard area. Cao Shujie's heart skipped a beat.
He thought to himself: "Could it be that it was not repaired last time and the dog opened it?"
But something's not right either.
That time, Cao Jianqiu and Cao Shubao, their uncles and nephews, came in blatantly to steal kiwi fruits and planned to sell them at a high price. But now there is no fruit in Cao Shujie's orchard, what else can they steal?
When he arrived at the barbed wire guardrail, Cao Shujie realized that he had guessed correctly. The puppy had really dug a hole under the barbed wire guardrail.
It is small in size, and there is a little space between the barbed wire guardrail and the ground. With the size of a puppy, it is really no problem to get through.
This is easier to deal with.
Cao Shujie walked over and filled back the soil it dug up with his feet. Seeing this dirty little native dog, Cao Shujie began to think again, where did it come from?
But after thinking about it, I didn't think of anyone in the village who had raised such a small number of puppies.
"What kind of breed is this?" Cao Shujie simply stopped thinking about it. He stretched out his hand toward the puppy and thought about taking it back. Who knew that this puppy was afraid of strangers? It snuggled next to Daha and Erha, and unexpectedly
Avoid Cao Shujie.
This amused Cao Shujie. This dirty-looking puppy was really interesting.
