Now she wants to build up strength and make money. There is a fire burning in her heart, which is getting stronger and stronger.
Yang and Huo Erhuai adopted her siblings before and did not starve them. She wanted to make money, but she just wanted to help share the burden. They spent a lot of money on her siblings. She
I know they want to save money and live ashore.
Buy an acre of homestead land, build a simple house, have a few acres of fields, grow some food, melons and vegetables, and usually go fishing. That's it.
She knows all this, so she doesn't usually reach out to them.
Firstly, she wanted to make money and help them share the burden, and secondly, she also wanted to do something of her own.
I just want to inquire about the wet nurse, but I don't have any money, not even the copper to take a bus to Zhuangzi to inquire.
Now that the Wu family has been rehabilitated, the concubine she gave birth to has become the eldest son in an instant. The Wu family has now become Mrs. Hou, and even her natal family has followed the chickens and dogs to heaven. The Huo family is just a poor fisherman fishing in the Qinhuai River.
Without power, status or status, you will definitely not be able to defeat the Wu family.
Huo Xi wants to make money, make a lot of money. If she has no power or power, she will use money to pave the way. No matter how hard it is, there will always be a way out.
Mother's revenge must be avenged.
The younger brother was obviously born nearly a month ago, and the letter was sent back to the family. But now, it is announced that the younger brother died in childbirth. The mother was killed in two deaths.
The Zhang family's genealogy cannot be without the name of his younger brother, the eldest son of his first wife.
No. She won't agree!
"Mom, Dad, in the past two days, you have spent a lot of money on treating me and buying medicine. Not only did you spend all the money you earned from fishing these days, you also spent the money you saved before..."
Yang interrupted her: "Xi'er, you don't have to worry about money. Your father and I can save some money by going further afield and playing more online games a day. You won't be hungry."
Huo Xi knew that the Yang couple wanted to live ashore this winter. None of their previous children had survived. Now that they had raised Nian'er, they were afraid that Nian'er would not be able to grow up if he floated in the river in winter, so he secretly saved his energy and wanted to save more.
Some silver.
But now she spends twenty taels every time she gets sick.
Huo Xi wanted to do something, so she told the fishermen in the morning that they would harvest crabs.
Huo Erhuai and Yang did not blame Huo Xi for making his own decisions. The couple felt that Huo Xi had always done things in a systematic way and told everyone that she would collect crabs. Although the couple were surprised, they only thought that she was worried about the family's livelihood, so they comforted her.
Don't worry about her.
"Xi'er, why do you want to collect crabs? Can you sell them?" Yang Fu knew that Huo Xi wanted to make money, and he wanted to make money too.
But collecting crabs? Won’t others sell them themselves?
But Huo Xi had his own ideas.
The Double Ninth Festival is approaching, and the capital has always had the habit of climbing high on the Double Ninth Festival, admiring chrysanthemums, drinking chrysanthemum wine and eating crabs. The demand for crabs will therefore increase greatly.
But the fishing of crabs is not as good as that of fish. One net can catch many. Sometimes one or two cannot be caught in a day.
The fishermen held them in their hands, three or two, which was really useless.
But Huo Xi actually had no idea.
After telling everyone what he was thinking, Huo Xi saw the three of them frowning. Huo Xi comforted him and said, "Mom and dad, you don't have to worry about money. I just want to give it a try. I have a jade pendant. I'll take it to the pawn shop then."
If you pawn, you can get enough money to collect the crabs."
"That's not possible! How can I use it as your jade pendant?" Huo Erhuai waved his hand. Xi'er also wanted to use her personal jade pendant as a personal jade pendant for the family's sake.
Moreover, what if her evil relatives were looking for her and found out? After raising Xi'er and Nian'er for so long, he would not be able to let them go.
Yang also held her hand: "Don't worry, we still have two taels of silver at home. If it's not enough, I will have a pair of bracelets for my dowry."
"Thank you mom, thank you dad."
"Hey, as a family, we don't say anything out of the ordinary."
So the family agreed to use two taels of silver as the cost of collecting crabs, and they would try this business.
After the discussion, Yang pushed her into the cabin to rest: "You and your uncle go to the cabin to see Nian'er. Your father and I will row the boat further today and catch more nets. We will go to the dense water and grass area in the afternoon.
Let’s see if we can catch some crabs and sell them for a few more bucks.”
"Yeah." Huo Xi responded and entered the cabin.
In the cabin, Huo Nian was still sleeping. Yang Fu pulled her and asked: "Xi'er, what if we can't sell it? Have you found a buyer?"
Huo Xi shook his head.
Huh? How dare you accept crabs without finding a buyer? If a lot of people send them to them, who will they sell them to? Then sell them in the street market? The purchase price is 10% higher than the market price. This is a loss-making profit.
Yell.
Yang Fu scratched his forehead in sorrow.
If you can't sell it, you will eat it every day, just like the dried fish that you can never finish.
Yang Fu shivered.
Huo Xi only knew that this business could be done, but actually she didn't know for sure.
She knew that the demand for festival products would surge before the festival. As long as she found the right way, since there were millions of people living in the capital, she was not afraid of not being able to sell them. And as long as they were sold, she would have money in her pocket.
These days, it's all business, opening a shop and setting up a stall, waiting for people to come to you. At most, you just shout a few times. Door-to-door sales are rare.
Generally speaking, those who produce do not care about sales, and those who are in charge of sales have no ability to produce, and the same goes for fishermen. Those who are good-mouthed will not catch as much as others. Those who catch a lot of fish, but are clumsy in talking, will not sell as much as others.
.
Now Huo Xi wants to be a middleman. The source of the goods is available, but where is the market?
Although there are many people in the outer cities, the consumer market is far less than that in the inner cities.
As for the inner city, is she going to go?
Huo Xi did not go fishing that day, so she dragged Yang Fu into the city.
After changing his disguise, he asked Yang Fu: "How is it?"
Yang Fu's mouth opened wide. He took Huo Xi's hand and looked back and forth. What kind of hands are these? After such a transformation, let alone the girl, even his sister and brother-in-law could not recognize this black boy standing in front of him.
It's his Xi'er.
"Xi'er, you are this one!" Yang Fu gave Huo Xi a thumbs up.
Huo Xi smiled and let go. She took Yang Fu and walked around the residential area in the inner city.
The east side is close to the imperial city, where aristocratic families live, and the west side is where wealthy merchants live. Huo Xi did not go to either side.
These people are rich, but they are not the target of her promotion. Most of these people have Zhuangzi, and they will supply their vegetables to the house on time. Most of the houses without Zhuangzi also have fixed purchasing channels.
He only dragged Yang Fu towards the north-south direction of the inner city.
Now that the new dynasty has just begun, many new rich people have suddenly flooded into the capital, and there are probably many side branches and common people who cling to the lives of these new rich people, including relatives and old friends. These people are afraid that they have not bought a suitable village, have no connections, and no eyes.
A touch of darkness.
The Double Ninth Festival is approaching, and you have to socialize everywhere. If you want to gain a foothold in Beijing, you can't be compared with others.
If you don't have what others have, you will lose face.
On the other hand, there are small wealthy families with no branches and no branches, who want to hang out in the inner city alone. They don't talk about using festivals to cling to the powerful, socialize and have banquets, but only talk about eating at home, and there is no shortage of crabs.
Even if it’s just a chance.
Yang Fu simply admired Huo Xi.
See her walking around the lanes and alleys as easily as if she were at home, dealing with all the housekeepers with ease, and without changing her expression, giving copper coins to the janitors. She is a black boy from a poor fisherman, and he is generous with officials and rich people.
Dealing with people.
Yang Fu's heart was pounding, and it took him a long time to get rid of his fear.
In just half a day, Huo Xi won orders from seven or eight companies, which was quite a lot.
"Wipe it, the saliva will fall off."
Yang Fu then closed his mouth and looked at Huo Xi with eyes full of stars, "Xi'er, how do you know so much? Aren't you afraid?"
Afraid? There is nothing to be afraid of.
The worst outcome is that the business fails. Can you still beat her or what?
Huo Xi just started working in her previous life, and she was doing sales work. After two years of sweeping buildings, she gradually opened up the situation. She also became sharp-tongued, and her face was as thick as a city wall. She didn't get rejected several times a day without being rejected by others.
Being scolded by others feels abnormal.
These are just experiences on the road to success. The process is not important, what is important is the result.
The result is nothing, everything is empty.
Before sunset, the uncle and nephew had received orders for more than thirty crabs. There were also many people who needed chrysanthemums, but Huo Xi only agreed to help look for them.
These days, the breeding and planting industries are not large-scale. If necessary, it takes manpower, material and financial resources to collect them. Ordinary small households will never have the time and energy to do so.
Regarding the chrysanthemum list, Huo Xi knew that there were some species in the stores of several large households, but it was hard to say whether they would sell them to her. She planned to ask her father to ask about it. If she could buy some, she could transport them to the capital to make a profit.
.
But in this case, the family's money is really not enough.
The jade pendant on her body cannot be pawned, nor can the mother's dowry be sold, so where will the money come from to receive the goods?
