Chapter 649: It’s easy to spend money, but it’s hard to save money
These days, most gold shops are state-owned, and the salespersons are paid dead wages. Whether they sell more or less has nothing to do with them.
But at this moment, the salesperson looked at Wang Meilan with a very complicated look!
Two gold rings, the one with wealth is 19.6 grams, and the one with fortune is 20.1 grams.
As for the engraved rings, they are more expensive than the plain rings, even if they require labor costs, costing 60 yuan per gram.
This made Wang Meilan hesitate. In her opinion, these things are all made of gold, so they should have the same price.
But when Zhao Jun saw this, he hurriedly said to the salesperson: "We want both of them, please calculate the total price."
After saying that, Zhao Jun said to Wang Meilan: "Mom, if you like it, buy it. We don't need that stuff."
Although Zhao Jun didn't know why my mother picked these two rings when she came up, he could tell that Wang Meilan really liked them.
"Hey!" After listening to Zhao Jun's words, Wang Meilan agreed without thinking. And the salesperson looked at Wang Meilan and became even more jealous!
Not only is this bitch rich, but her son is also filial, which makes others envious!
Based on the price of sixty grams, multiplied by the grams of two gold rings, the total price is two thousand three hundred and eighty-two, no zero will be added.
Upon hearing the price, Wang Meilan's expression did not change at all. She still held on to the belt of her pocket with one hand, reached into her pocket with the other hand, pulled out a stack of large dough sticks, and placed it directly on the counter.
Then, Wang Meilan took out two more piles of money, opened one of them, counted out forty cards and put them together with the other two piles.
This is two thousand four!
At this time, they were the only customers in the gold shop. The other salesmen were also idle. Two people came from the side and helped their colleagues count the money.
None of these three salesmen can count money as fast as Wang Meilan.
When they finished counting, they found that the amount of money was correct. Of the three salesmen, one went to change money for Wang Meilan, one went to pack the ring, and the other took the carbon paper to issue the invoice.
After the money and goods were cleared, Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan came out of the gold shop and ran to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Zhao Jun came to the supply and marketing cooperative not to buy anything. After all, he didn't drive here, so he couldn't buy much.
He came here this time to ask about the price of lynx skins here. If the price was right, he would just sell the two skins he brought.
This supply and marketing cooperative is much larger than the one in Yong'an Town, with many counters selling goods and a relatively complete range of goods.
Go to the back, which is the place where mountain products are collected. All kinds of fungus, mushrooms and dried fish are collected here.
Just like when Yu Xuewen asked Zhao Jun to kill yellow leaves, now is not the season for hunting.
So on the innermost counter, there was only a pile of gray leather and a few otter skins.
Zhao Jun looked in from the outside and saw that there was no one behind the counter, so he asked the woman collecting fungus next to him: "Sister, do we still collect skins here now?"
"Oops!" This woman was almost as old as Wang Meilan, but when she heard the young man calling her sister, she hurriedly waved to Zhao Jun to wait, and then she rushed forward and shouted: "Old Wu!"
After shouting, no one responded, so the woman shouted at the top of her lungs: "Old Wu!"
After this voice, there was a brief silence in the hall in front.
"Here we come!" A middle-aged man wearing blue overalls and sleeves on his arms came quickly from the front.
The woman collecting the fungus saw him, pointed at Zhao Jun and said: "Hurry up, this guy is looking for you to collect the skin!"
Old Wu was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand to the woman to express his gratitude, and then nodded to Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan. He squatted down and went through the small door on the counter, entered the counter, and walked all the way behind the woman
, and walk towards the innermost part.
Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan walked outside the counter and came to the counter where the gray skins and otter skins were placed. Zhao Jun reached out and picked up the otter skins and asked Lao Wu: "Master, how much does this skin cost?"<
/p>
"That one is eighteen and a half dollars." Old Wu replied: "The gray skin is forty dollars."
Zhao Jun nodded when he heard this, and Old Wu, who should be a talkative person, said to himself: "The skin is not in good shape now, and it will get better in the winter."
In the Northeast, before the cold winter arrives, animals have to molt to survive the severe cold. Therefore, the fur in winter is better than in other times.
At this time, Old Wu glanced at Wang Meilan first. Although Wang Meilan was carrying a bulging bag, it didn't look like anything soft was in the bag.
So, Lao Wu turned his attention to Zhao Jun again, looked at him, and then asked: "Little brother, what kind of leather do you want to sell?"
Zhao Jun opened his shoulder bag and took out the rolled lynx skin.
When Lao Wu saw it, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand at the counter.
Zhao Jun handed the skin to Lao Wu, who unfolded the lynx skin with both hands. This skin was the one that Zhao Youcai beat. If nothing else, it should be the kitten's mother.
Lao Wu only glanced at it, then raised his head and said to Zhao Jun: "Three thousand!"
"Master!" Zhao Jun said to Lao Wu: "Three thousand is less, please give me more."
Upon hearing Zhao Jun's request, Old Wu smiled at Zhao Jun, then shook his head. With a move of his hands, he rolled up the leather and placed it on the counter.
Lao Wu smiled and said to Zhao Jun: "Little brother, I know that it is not easy for people to run in the mountains, so what I give you is the real price. This is... the skin of mother and child. It is from this time, so it is the price.
”
At this point, Lao Wu added another sentence and said: "Little brother, I am telling you the truth. If you want to believe it, then believe it. If you don't believe it, I will pull you down."
"Master." Zhao Jun felt something interesting when he heard it, and said: "What are you talking about? Just say it."
Old Wu stretched out his hand and patted the lynx skin, and said: "This year's stuff is thick. When winter comes, the price will drop if it doesn't get better."
Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this, knowing that he was a sensible person. He immediately no longer hesitated and said directly: "Okay, master, I will leave this piece of leather for you."
"Okay!" Old Wu responded, stretched out his hand and pulled out a piece of white cloth from under the counter. While rolling the leather into the white cloth, he said to Zhao Jun: "Don't worry, little brother, I will issue an invoice for you in a moment." "It's not urgent." Zhao Jun said, took out another piece of leather from his shoulder bag, raised his hand and put it on the counter, saying: "Master, please take a look at this again."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Seeing the second piece of leather on the counter, Old Wu couldn't help but be startled. When he looked at Zhao Jun again, he couldn't help but ask: "Little brother, do you have a gunner at home?"
"Yeah." Zhao Jun nodded and said with a smile: "My dad is a gunner, and he is famous in every village in the world!"
"What did I say?" Old Wu said, then picked up the first rolled leather tube and gestured to Zhao Jun: "I'll put this away, three thousand!"
After saying that, Lao Wu stuffed it under the counter.
This second lynx skin was shot by Zhao Jun. It came from a male lynx and was one or two times larger than the previous one.
Lao Wu unfolded the leather, pressed both sides with his hands and looked at it carefully, and then said to Zhao Jun: "This sex is better than that one, and it is still a male. Here you go..."
Speaking of this, Lao Wu hesitated and said: "Three thousand and three."
"Master." Seeing Lao Wu's hesitation, Zhao Jun hurriedly said: "You can add more to this."
Old Wu looked at Zhao Jun, then at Pi Zi, pursed his lips and said, "I'll give you fifty more."
"Okay!" Zhao Jun also accepted it as soon as it was good. In fact, these two leathers, both in terms of leather and color, were not as good as the one Xu Changlin gave him at the beginning of spring.
The leather only sold for 3,500 yuan. Therefore, Zhao Jun felt that the price given by Old Wu was quite authentic.
Hearing Zhao Jun's promise, Lao Wu pulled out another white cloth from under the counter. While rolling up the leather, he said to Zhao Jun: "Little brother, your father's handle is so strong that he hit both lynxes on the head.
”
Zhao Jun smiled and nodded without saying anything.
And Lao Wu stuffed the rolled lynx skin under the counter, took the bill book, scrawled the price on it with a pen, tore it off, took the copied piece, made gestures to the front, and handed it over.
He said to Zhao Jun: "Little brother, go to the hall and look to the right. First go to the Nantou room to find our manager. After he stamps the seal, he will lead you to the finance department to withdraw money."
These two pieces of leather were sold faster than a stick. Zhao Jun took the ticket and thanked Lao Wu, saying: "Thank you, master."
At this time, Wang Meilan also nodded to Lao Wu, and then walked forward with Zhao Jun.
Following the direction pointed by Lao Wu, Zhao Jun first went to the manager to get his stamp stamped, and then went to the next door to collect the money.
Wang Meilan did not count the money this time, but went shopping.
Two pieces of leather were sold for a total of 6,350 yuan!
Zhao Jun put the money in his pocket and hurriedly came out to find Wang Meilan. He was afraid that Wang Meilan would buy lavishly. It is difficult to get a taxi these days. It would be troublesome to buy too much and not be able to take it back.
When Zhao Jun found Wang Meilan, he saw Wang Meilan standing in front of the window sill near the door, playing with something.
Zhao Jun was afraid that his mother would be frightened if he walked over directly, so he stayed away and called mom.
Hearing her son's voice, Wang Meilan turned around to look for it. Seeing Zhao Jun approaching, Wang Meilan glanced at Zhao Jun's bulging shoulder bag and said to Zhao Jun: "Son, come and take a look at this thing." p>
Zhao Jun came over to take a look and saw ten small round boxes stacked on the windowsill in front of Wang Meilan.
This small round box is not big and flat. The lid has a black background and four slightly larger words written in the middle are colorful.
Under the colorful words, three relatively small words are written: moisturizing cream. In the outer circle of these seven words, colorful flowers are painted, presumably to correspond to the artistic conception of the colorful colors.
Zhao Jun was happy when he saw it. He smiled and said to Wang Meilan: "My dad asked you to buy it, and you really didn't buy less."
Wang Meilan smiled when she heard this, but Zhao Jun joked again: "How hard it is for my dad to save some money."
At this time, someone passed by. After hearing Zhao Jun's words, he couldn't help but cast a strange look at Wang Meilan.
……
"How hard is it for me to save some money!" As they were approaching Yong'an Village, there were no dogs around the three-person siege team of Zhao Youcai, Wang Qiang, and Zhang Yuanmin.
The hunting dogs all left Zhao Youcai when they were about to leave the mountain range.
Zhao Youcai was condescending and looked at the familiar village with mixed feelings in his heart.
A cannon egg and an old sow can be sold for around three hundred yuan at least!
When the time comes, the three people will be divided, and each of them will still have a hundred!
But at the end of the day, the pigs were lost and ran away, and the last hundred dollars turned into ten dollars. And these ten dollars are Zhao Youcai’s talent!
This dollar is equivalent to the ten dollars he gave Wang Meilan last night. Zhao Youcai even bought dry food today!
When he thought of this, Zhao Youcai sighed quietly. Maybe when will he have such a good opportunity next time?
"Brother-in-law." Wang Qiang couldn't help but persuade Zhao Youcai: "Okay, we don't have that kind of wealth, so don't think about it."
Finance Minister Zhao You was angry and said to Wang Qiang: "Qiangzi!"
"Hey!" Wang Qiang responded quickly, and at this time Zhao Youcai called Zhang Yuanmin again, and Zhang Yuanmin quickly agreed.
Zhao Youcai warned the two of them: "None of you can tell anyone about this matter today!"
"Yeah, don't tell me." Wang Qiang was the first to respond. It would be easy to make people laugh if I mentioned this matter today.
Not only Wang Qiang, but Zhang Yuanmin also thought the same. Before he went to 77 Lengchang, he also thought about finding an opportunity to secretly tell Zhao Jun what happened today after returning to the village.
But given the current situation, Zhang Yuanmin thought it was better to forget it.
When the three of them returned to the village, they went their separate ways and went back to their homes.
Zhao Youcai arrived home with a gun on his back. He first went to Li's house to put down the gun, then climbed over the wall and returned to his home. He went directly to the warehouse to take out the meat and bones left over from yesterday. No matter what, he just gave one point to the two dogs.<
/p>
Yesterday, Zhao Jun didn't bring back much meat. Zhao and Li's family also cut some lean meat for cooking, and the remaining meat and bones only weighed more than 20 kilograms.
Thirteen dogs, where can they get enough to eat?
But at this moment, Zhang Yuanmin came with a sack on his back. Zhao Jun left a lot of meat for him yesterday. In the morning, Yang Yufeng carried a pig leg back to her parents' home. Zhang Yuanmin didn't have time to deal with the rest.
With all this meat, Zhao Youcai finally fed the dogs well. But when the hunting dogs who were not full saw Zhao Youcai walking towards him with the meat, their tails almost flew away.
Especially the black tiger, not only does it wag its tail, it also shakes its head.
After Zhao Youcai finished feeding the dog, he raised his hand and pointed toward the house, calling Zhang Yuanmin to come in.
After entering the house, Zhao Youcai first took a look at the back room and saw that the furnishings in the east room, including the Kang table and the Kang table, were the same as when he left. Zhao Youcai hurriedly turned around and opened the lid of the pot.
When he opened the lid of the pot and took a look, Zhao Youcai breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone had eaten the vegetables and steamed buns in the pot. There was no food left, and there were four and a half steamed buns left.
As for why the house is so tidy, and the dishes and chopsticks after eating, they must have been cleaned up by the sensible little bell.
"Hey!" Zhao Youcai sighed and called Zhang Yuanmin into the house.
The two of them went to the inner room and sat down on the kang. Zhao Youcai took the small basket of tobacco and he and Zhang Yuanmin each rolled up a cigarette and smoked it.
After taking a puff of cigarette, Zhang Yuanmin said to Zhao Youcai: "Uncle, you promised to catch wild boars for others, but if you don't do it today, nothing will happen, right?"
"No." Zhao Youcai puffed out smoke and said, "Just give him a straightening before New Year's Day."
Zhang Yuanmin thought about it again and again, and finally said to Zhao Youcai: "Uncle, how about my brother and I help you catch him?"
When Zhao Youcai heard this, he took a deep puff of his cigarette and said, "No need."
After Zhao Youcai said no, Zhang Yuanmin didn't dare to persuade him. But at this moment, Zhao Youcai said: "Yuanmin, you have to lend me your hook next time I catch pigs."
As soon as Zhao Youcai mentioned that guy's matter, Zhang Yuanmin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked Zhao Youcai energetically: "Uncle, is my life-threatening hook okay?"
"Snatch... OK!" Zhao Youcai lowered his lips and said, "If you don't let it carry you away, we will also catch the second pig."
At this time, Zhang Yuanmin didn't care about catching pigs to make money. After his invention and creation were recognized by Zhao Youcai, Zhang Yuanmin became more confident.
I saw Zhang Yuanmin put the butt of his cigarette into an ashtray made of a can, and when he raised his head again, he said to Zhao Youcai: "Uncle, let me tell you, I have to think of something new."
"Ah? What's this new thing?" When Zhao Youcai heard this, his curiosity suddenly aroused.
In the past, whatever Zhang Yuanmin said, Zhao Youcai would be put off after hearing it. But today he really saw how powerful he was and tasted the benefits. It’s just that there was a thief in the family, otherwise it would have been perfect!
Zhang Yuanmin smiled lightly and said: "Uncle, I want to build another weapon."
"Ah!" At this time, Zhao Youcai didn't care about Zhang Yuanmin's speaking style and just asked: "What are you doing?"
Zhang Yuanmin raised a finger and said with a smile: "You can catch the blind man."
