Chapter 95. The Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce is meeting!
After hearing what Li Wencai said about the arrival of Jie Chen and his mother, Zhao Youcai knew that the two of them were going back to their hometown in Lingnan to show off. Zhao Youcai, who was worried about not being able to go to Lingnan, had the idea of giving Jie Chen a ride.
As for the reason to persuade the minister, Zhao Youcai had his own idea.
"Jie Chen and Sister Lao Sun are here?" When Li Laowu heard the news, he hurriedly tied the horse to the elm tree outside the tent and said to Zhao Youcai: "Second brother, my family just arranged for them to come to my house to eat in the evening.
Okay?"
What Li Laowu said was exactly what Zhao Youcai wanted. Tomorrow Li Wencai was going to kill a pig for a treat. Zhao Youcai didn't care about the stuttering one, but he couldn't blind Li Wencai.
Therefore, even if Zhao Youcai wanted to leave, he would have to eat the butchered vegetables before leaving tomorrow. In this case, the mother and son of the Jie family would have to stay overnight in Yongxing Brigade.
Li Laowu's family is treating guests, which can be used as a reason.
When the three of them entered the house, Mrs. Jie Sun was scolding Jie Chen.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Jie Chen hurriedly looked into the outer room and saw Zhao Youcai coming in from the outside. Jie Chen hurriedly stood up and called: "Uncle."
"Hey." Zhao Youcai responded, and Jie Chen greeted Li Laowu who was following behind.
Zhao Youcai entered the room, and greeted Mr. Sun and said, "Sister Sun, why did you arrive here before? Is it cold?"
"Oh, mom, don't mention it, brother-in-law." Xie Sun waved her hand, pointed out the window, and said, "The old car was broken down halfway again, otherwise we would have arrived earlier."
"Why is the car broken down?" Li Laowu heard this and asked from the side, and then heard Jie Chen reply: "There is something in the engine that doesn't work well."
"Then it needs to be repaired!" Li Laowu said, but Xie Chen said: "Ask me Brother Li, he said that it needs to be overhauled and needs to be replaced. Don't you wait for their team to believe it?"
"Then what do you have to wait for?" Li Laowu tapped Jie Chen's arm with the back of his hand and said: "The cars and tractors that our team collectively repaired the day before yesterday have everything. Why don't you ask?
Xiaofei goes."
The Xiaofei mentioned by Li Laowu was Tao Fei. Hearing this, Xie Chen said: "I went there just now, but he didn't stay home."
After saying this, Jie Chen added: "Second Uncle Tao didn't leave home either."
"They went to Dongji today to deliver things." Li Laowu said, "You can wait until they come back in the evening."
"Ah?" Jie Chen was startled and said, "That won't work, Fifth Uncle, we have to leave right away."
"Why are you leaving?" Li Laowu said: "My family is hosting a treat tonight. If you catch up, you can eat here."
"That's right." Li Wencai, who had secretly glanced at Xie Sun, withdrew his gaze and said to Xie Chen, "How about staying here for one night and eating the butchered pork before leaving tomorrow."
"This..." Jie Chen looked at Jie Sunshi. Today's Jie Sunshi is different from before. She can no longer keep her with the mere slaughter of pigs and vegetables.
But before he could understand what Sun said about leaving, Zhao Youcai said: "My lord, listen to you, Mr. Li and the others. You and your mother will stay for one night before leaving. After that, let Xiaofei give you the car."
Gu. How about if you continue to mess up the road and lose access to the village in front of you and the store in the back?"
After hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Jie Chen looked at Jie Sun and asked, "Mom, how about we leave tomorrow?"
Mr. Xie Sun was also afraid that the car would break down halfway. If it hadn't been for the broken car, they would have arrived at Yongxing long ago.
Seeing that Mr. Sun nodded, everyone was very happy.
…
Zhaojia, Yong'an Village.
Zhao Jun and others gathered in the east room, and Wang Meilan presided over the preparatory meeting for the first general meeting of shareholders of Zhaojia Commercial Bank.
The meeting was attended by women from various families, as well as Zhao Jun, Wang Qiang's uncle and nephew, and Xing San, who was invited by Wang Meilan.
Finally, Yang Yufeng hurried over with the little bell.
In the morning, Yang Yufeng was still at Zhao's house, but she was worried that Zhang Yuanmin would be at home alone, so she didn't even have lunch at Zhao's house.
As soon as the two of them arrived, almost all the people attending the meeting were gathered. Wang Meilan picked up a small plastic notebook and handed it to Xiao Lingdang along with a pen.
Xiao Lingdang had a serious face and solemnly took the pen and notebook from Wang Meilan with both hands.
Due to the shortage of talents, Wang Meilan hired classmate Zhang Lingling as the accountant of Zhaojia Trading Company.
The accountant doesn't need to be so professional, nor does he need to use the debit and credit accounting method, because not only can the little bell not know that thing, but these people can't understand it either.
Wang Meilan is very simple with Xiaolingdang. She only needs to calculate how much to spend and how much to earn so that the money can be matched.
Little Lingdang sat on the small bench neatly, spreading her notebook on her knees.
Not only does she hold the position of accountant, she also has to write meeting minutes.
There is no way, who makes her the best at writing among the seven families.
As a top student at Yong'an Primary School, Xiao Lingdang can write blackboard newspapers and has also learned the standard format for letters and meeting minutes.
Amidst the rustling sound, the pen left neat handwriting on the paper.
Below the preparatory meeting for the first general meeting of shareholders of the Zhaojia Chamber of Commerce, the date of the meeting is January 12, 1988.
Further down is the venue of the conference. In order to show the wealth and wealth of Zhao's Chamber of Commerce, Xiaoling Ding wrote: East Gate on the first floor of Zhao's Chamber of Commerce.
Then there are the people attending the meeting, who are the people in the room, just write them down one by one.
For those who were absent from the meeting, Xiaolingdang wrote the names of five people: Jie Sun, Jie Chen, Zhang Yuanmin, Li Baoyu, and Li Ruhai.
No need to ask about the host of the meeting, it must be Wang Meilan.
And Wang Meilan held this conference not because she was full.
After the conference started, Wang Meilan directly took out the two fox skins that Zhao Jun had collected and announced that the Zhao Chamber of Commerce would officially begin the business of purchasing furs from today.
Fox skins, badger skins, weasel skins, sable skins, and lynx skins are all within the acquisition scope of the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce.
In order to enable better business development, Wang Meilan proposed that Xing San and Li Ruhai be responsible for external liaison work.
Xing San is mainly responsible for contacting the old mountain dogs he knows and asking them to sell the furs they hunt in winter to the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce.
For the convenience of those old mountain dogs, Wang Meilan also promised to go into the mountains and come to buy the furs they hunted.
Suddenly being assigned a task, Xing San couldn't help being startled. The old man clicked, clicked his eyes, and put out the Shilin cigarette butt that was burned to the butt of the cigarette in a simple ashtray made from a can, then opened the lid of the teapot and picked up the tea.
Tank took a sip of Maojian.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing that Xing San did not say a word, Wang Meilan just assumed that he had acquiesced. Even Xing San was incorporated, not to mention Li Ruhai.
As the saying goes: There are thousands of people in a family, but one person is in charge.
These days, in rural areas and forest areas, the head of the family has the final say. Whoever is the head of a family has the final say, and the rest of the family must listen to the head of the family.
On the surface, Li Jiaming is headed by Li Dayong, but in fact... Anyway, Jin Xiaomei stated on the spot that his Li Ruhai will definitely work hard and do a good job diligently.
After hearing what Jin Xiaomei said, Xing San pursed his lips as he put down the teapot, thinking that he had to express his position, and immediately said to Wang Meilan: "Brothers and sisters, don't worry, I will talk to them when I go up the mountain tomorrow.
Those old mountain dogs can’t be repaired, but they can have a lot of big skin and yellow leaves. You’ll have to prepare some money when it’s over. In the beginning, people can’t give us things on credit.”
Most of the old mountain dogs don't have guns. Even if they have guns, their age, skill, and eyesight can no longer keep up with the prey.
Therefore, the old mountain dogs usually use a clamp to clamp yellow leaves or large pieces of skin.
The yellow leaves are fine, but the big ones are expensive. Those things cost 1,800 yuan a piece, and you can't buy a few for 10,000 yuan.
But this didn't bother Wang Meilan. She said to Xing San: "Yeah, brother, I know that. Don't worry, it'll be fine if we open it and close it."
As soon as Wang Meilan finished speaking, Jin Xiaomei expressed her position again: "Sister-in-law, my family is on holiday tomorrow, so I will let him out... No."
"Hahaha..." Jin Xiaomei's slip of the tongue made everyone laugh out loud. There are many mountain mice and yellow-skinned mice in the forest area. The chickens, ducks, and geese at home will be penned in the shed at night, and then let out the next morning.
The process of finding food, penning chickens, ducks, and geese and letting them out is called scattering.
"I'll let him out..." Jin Xiaomei changed her words but it was wrong. She hurriedly added: "I'll let him out and look for Wei Tie and Mrs. Sun."
"Okay, Xiaomei." Wang Meilan said with a smile: "Brother Xing is in charge of those in the mountains, Ruhai is in charge of the family area, and there are also those who run in the mountains like Shiliba Village."
"Second Aunt, what are we doing?" Xu Chunyan asked.
"Yes, sister." Zhao Ling also asked, and Yang Yufeng next to her nodded.
"We all have work, and no one can run away." Seeing how enthusiastic everyone was, Wang Meilan pointed out the window with a smile and said: "Tomorrow we will clean up the shed of my house and Xiaomei's house first, and then we will build a few shelves to store things.
.”
The original plan was to build a dozen wood-carved corrugated sheds next to the new house, but it was winter and there was no way to start construction. Besides, no one lived there, so Wang Meilan wanted to pack up her current sheds.
As soon as Wang Meilan finished speaking, she saw Yang Yufeng raising her hand high.
This is someone who understands the rules and knows how to abide by the order of the venue.
"Feng'er, tell me." Wang Meilan called her name, and Yang Yufeng stood up and said: "Old aunt, her father told me about my bell. If you are not in a hurry to sell the skins, the uncooked ones must be cooked with ashes, and the ripe ones must be inside.
Apply a layer of dust.”
"Well said!" Wang Meilan praised Yang Yufeng, raised her hand to signal Yang Yufeng to sit down, and then said: "We will take back the big skin, yellow leaves, and greyhound skin. If they are not ripe, we will cook them with ashes. They will cook slowly.
I’m not afraid at all. If you’re familiar with it, we don’t have to worry about it. Anyway, in the coming spring, Uncle Zhao will be transporting wood, so we’ll sell it all with him.
If that's the case... the skins we save must be cooked by Feng'er as Feng'er said, and we have to apply another layer of dust, otherwise there will be bugs in the dog days."
It’s humid and muggy during the Dog Days, so leftover rice and leftovers may become sour after being stored for a long time. Some dry foods may grow hair, mold, and even insects if stored improperly during the Dog Days.
If the skins are not kept properly in Futian, one skin will be infested with insects, and hundreds of them will suffer.
But the Zhang family has a secret technique for cooking leather, which is to use plant ash to cook leather. Plant ash is a very powerful thing. It can be used to treat wounds, and it can also prevent moisture and insects.
In some places in the Northeast, people start drying vegetables as soon as the beginning of autumn. Some people like to dry cucumbers by cutting the whole cucumber into hob pieces, rolling the ashes and then drying them in the sun.
The main purpose of rolling this plant ash is to prevent insects from growing. Moreover, the cucumbers dried by rolling the plant ash will turn out to be emerald green after being washed with water.
Everyone responded one after another, and Wang Meilan said to Zhao Jun: "Son, let's go down to the mountain during the next two days and sell all the bear bile that should be sold to the warehouse. Whose shares should be given to whom? After that, they still have to buy shares.
"
At the end of the story, Wang Meilan herself was happy.
In this transaction, except for the old lady, the other six families contributed money, and then the shares were divided proportionally.
"Mom, you have to prepare a sum of money in the next two days." Zhao Jun said to Wang Meilan: "I bought those two fox skins today and gave that man sixty yuan. This guy's eyes are all red in the countryside.
Yes. I guess there will be a lot of people bringing fox skins tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
"Well done, son!" Wang Meilan praised Zhao Jun and said: "There will be a man who will be rewarded heavily!"
"Yeah!" Zhao Jun nodded with a smile. The two women always thought that what they said was right, and the people around them didn't notice it.
Only the little bell that recorded it suddenly felt something was wrong when it came to the word common man.
If this was Li Ruhai, he would have screamed on the spot. Xiao Lingdang knew what was good and knew not to expose this matter in public. Moreover, this child really wrote "there must be a man under the heavy reward".
"Son!" At this time, Wang Meilan said to Zhao Jun: "How do you fix those old air guns? When are you going to sell them? That costs a lot of money."
"Mom, sell it right away!" Zhao Jun smiled and said: "When the Xishan gang beats the fox, they will have money. Let's ask who is willing. If he agrees, he will
I'll deposit seventy yuan here, and then we'll get him an air rifle, which we'll rent to him.
He is holding an air gun and is about to shoot a gray skin. Let's take the skin. After ten and a half months, let them take the air gun back to us and give them the 70 yuan that should be paid.
But if they want to continue using our gun, the seventy yuan will be considered as the money to buy the gun, and the gun will be given to them."
"Seventy?" Xing San heard this, stretched out his hand and tugged Zhao Jun's arm, and said: "I heard from the old boss of Dongerchazi that his nephew bought a high-pressure air gun two days ago for eighty yuan."
Hearing Xing San's words, everyone laughed. Wang Qiang pulled Xing San and whispered: "Brother, we are looking for someone to place the order in a confidential factory. After we finish, we will buy a lot. Give us thirty-four."
A handful."
"Ah?"
But Xing San knew that as long as those gangsters in Xishan had gray skin, they would definitely buy guns.
Gray leather is getting more expensive year by year. This year, the purchasing price of the supply and marketing cooperative has risen to 378. Two pieces of gray leather can be exchanged for an air gun.
What's more, Zhao Jun's air guns are cheaper than those sold by supply and marketing cooperatives. They are ten yuan cheaper. Anyone who buys air guns will buy Zhao Jun's.
"Boy, you are really wise!" Xing San praised Zhao Jun. Although Zhao Jun earned a lot, Xing San did not think Zhao Jun was evil.
Because Zhao Jun earned this money by maintaining relationships. And there is no forced buying or selling. If those gangsters don't want to buy, just refund them the deposit.
Zhao Jun chuckled. If these air guns had been kept, they would have increased to one hundred or one hundred and two.
But Zhao Jun can't wait that long. As Wang Meilan said, this is too expensive.
Zhao Jun figured it out. The difference was fifty yuan at most for an air gun, and five hundred for twenty-five thousand. But it would take three years, and all those three years had already come back.
