Chapter 179 The Village Girl's Supporting Girl Does Not Be Cannon Fodder
Pei Shuo parked his car at the brigade headquarters and returned to Sheng's house to pick up his things. As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he saw a slender figure sitting on the edge of the well, holding a knife in his hand.
Bang...
The girl chopped off the chicken head with a knife, and a few drops of blood were splashed on her cheek. She looked up and saw him, grinned and greeted: "Company Commander Pei."
Pei Shuo paused for a moment, nodded, and went straight back to his room, grabbed his things and left.
Sheng Nuan's hands were full of blood, and she was humming a tune while handling the two chickens...
When the other three people at home came back at noon, they smelled the aroma of meat filling the yard... Xue Suwan was stunned for a moment, then her face changed drastically, and she quickly walked to the chicken coop and saw that her two old hens were still alive, so she reluctantly
He breathed a sigh of relief.
When Sheng Nuan brought a large pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms to the table, the other three were a little surprised.
"I went to the mountains to pick up mushrooms and found them today. They are very fat..." Sheng Nuan smiled.
Sheng Fei was a little dumbfounded: "How did you get it online?"
Sheng Nuan glanced at him: "Just put down the net, and then go back after picking up the fungi. The chicken is already in the net..."
Sheng Fei murmured: "Is it that easy?"
Sheng Nuan nodded: "It's that easy."
Sheng Qingyang was a little worried: "You are just out of luck. A blind cat meets a dead mouse. Don't worry and go up the mountain."
It's so remote that no one knows what happened.
Sheng Nuan agreed with a smile, and the family started to eat...
When it was getting dark in the afternoon, the soldiers staying at Sheng's house came back.
After the six people entered the yard, they swept the yard, carried water, cleaned the chicken coops and pig pens. The Sheng family had stopped them from doing this before, but they couldn't stop them at all.
After quickly cleaning up the yard, several soldiers washed their faces and hands, then changed their clothes and gathered around the well to wash clothes without making any noise.
Xue Suwan asked Sheng Fei to bring the chicken and send it out, but the soldiers refused to take it no matter what. In their words: Thank you fellow villagers for your kindness, but we have discipline!
Xue Suwan had no choice but to give up.
Pei Shuo didn't come back until much later. He also cleaned up the house and washed clothes by himself...
Xue Suwan asked Sheng Fei to deliver a bowl of chicken to Pei Shuo's house. Sheng Fei refused to go, so Sheng Nuan volunteered to deliver it.
This time she learned her lesson and knocked at the door.
Then I heard a deep voice coming from inside: "Please come in."
Sheng Nuan pushed the door open and walked in. She saw Pei Shuo sitting at the table with the lamp on and reading some documents. She quickly said: "Company Commander Pei, my mother asked me to bring you some food."
Pei Shuo stood up and nodded: "Thank you, no need, we have discipline!"
really……
Sheng Nuan sighed: "Okay then."
The next moment, she took two steps inside and whispered: "Company Commander Pei, can I ask you for a favor?"
Pei Shuo raised his eyes and looked at her.
Sheng Nuan said: "When you go to the county town one day, can you take me on board... The passengers on the county bus are dogs and chickens. I get carsick and can't stand the smell... is that okay?"
Pei Shuo's expression remained unchanged: "Do your parents know?"
He looked like a child.
Sheng Nuan smiled: "I know."
Pei Shuo nodded and said, "At seven o'clock tomorrow morning, we will arrive at the brigade department entrance on time."
Early the next morning, before seven o'clock, the three members of the Sheng family went out to work. Not long after, Sheng Nuan packed her old wild ginseng with a small cloth on her back and rushed to the brigade headquarters.
She saw a military off-road vehicle parked there in the distance. She quickly went over. As soon as she got closer, she saw a tall, erect and imposing man leaning against the car and smoking.
Seeing Sheng Nuan approaching, Pei Shuo put out his cigarette butt directly in the car and turned around to get in the car without saying a word.
After a while, the off-road vehicle drove out of the country road and onto the road...
"Thank you, Captain Pei." Sheng Nuan thanked him with a smile.
Pei Shuo hummed without any hesitation, looking intently and expressionless, as if he didn't want to talk to her.
Sheng Nuan didn't care. He looked out the window at the original and ancient scenery, and he was very excited.
After selling this old wild ginseng, she would get a lot of money. No matter what she wanted to do in the future, she would at least have a certain amount of start-up capital.
The village is about twenty minutes' drive from the county seat. After entering the county seat, Pei Shuo stopped the car: "At eleven o'clock, I will wait for you here."
Sheng Nuan responded repeatedly and got out of the car.
As soon as she got out of the car, the military off-road vehicle suddenly drove away...
Sheng Nuan didn't dare to waste time, fearing that Pei Shuo wouldn't be waiting for her in the evening.
It was not yet eight o'clock, and there were not many people on the county streets, but she knew that there were some small alleys that were crowded at this time.
Sheng Nuan walked to the black market with a small cloth bag in her arms. She didn't buy anything, but just took a look around.
In fact, the country is now preparing to liberalize self-employment, and everyone below is also secretly doing it on their own, but there are not many people.
Sheng Nuan wanted to look for ideas and see what he wanted to do.
After visiting the black market, she went to the largest pharmacy.
When I went there, someone was collecting Gastrodia elata at the boss's place... A sack of Gastrodia elata didn't seem to be in good condition, but the person who received the goods didn't say anything and just took it all away and paid for it.
When the drug dealer left, the drug store owner smiled and asked Sheng Nuan: "My dear, what medicine should I buy?"
Sheng Nuan walked over, opened the cloth bag, and took out the old wild ginseng... The pharmacy owner's eyes suddenly widened.
When he heard that Sheng Nuan was about to sell, the boss raised his hand and held out two fingers: "Two hundred yuan."
Sheng Nuan was about to leave without saying a word. The boss quickly called her, "Hey, hey, don't leave. Isn't this a bargain? You bargain first..."
Sheng Nuan turned around: "One thousand!"
The boss almost choked: "Daughter, that's not how you negotiate the price..."
At first he thought she was an ignorant child, but now the boss realized that this little girl had a good match, and finally the two agreed on a price of 880.
In this era, ordinary workers only earned a few dozen yuan. The son of a family in Shengnuan Village drove a car in the county town, and his salary was 20 yuan a month. He was the first rich person in the village.
Sheng Nuan was equivalent to selling that man's salary for more than three years...but she knew that the boss would still make money.
After agreeing on the price, the boss carefully took out a wooden box and put the ginseng in it. Then he asked Sheng Nuan where it came from, and Sheng Nuan said he found it on the mountain.
The boss gave a thumbs up: "He is a very lucky person..."
Sheng Nuan asked as if nothing had happened: "Is Gastrodia elata easy to sell?"
The boss opened his eyes and nodded: "It's easy to sell. I don't know how popular it is, but it's just hard to find. Now I heard that some people are planting it artificially, but the yield is very low and the price is much lower... But it's also very popular."
After chatting with the boss for a while, Sheng Nuan carefully collected the money, put five yuan outside, went out to buy some things from the supply and marketing cooperative, and then went straight to the place she had made an appointment with Pei Shuo.
From a distance, I could see Pei Shuo leaning on the car and smoking.
Cars are rarely seen these days, so a sturdy off-road vehicle parked there naturally attracts attention, especially since the soldier next to the car is tall, mighty and cold...
Sensing more and more eyes around him, Pei Shuo frowned, then put out his cigarette butt and turned to get in the car.
Sheng Nuan quickly ran over, walked to the car and patted the door.
Pei Shuo glanced at her, and she quickly opened the door and got in the car.
On the way back, Sheng Nuan took out a big white rabbit and said, "Lianchang Pei, want a candy?"
"Thank you, no need." Pei Shuo didn't look sideways.
Sheng Nuan groaned, peeled it off and stuffed it into his mouth. After a while, the sweet smell of toffee filled the cab...
When Sheng Nuan and Pei Shuo returned to Sheng's house, Xue Suwan immediately came up and grabbed Sheng Nuan's ears: "You stinky girl, where did you go? You didn't see anyone when you came back! Come in with me, I have something to ask you.
…”
"Ah ah ah, don't pull your ears..."
Sheng Nuan was carried back by the ears. Behind him, Pei Shuo's expression suddenly turned cold.
Sheng Nuan told him that he had told his parents...
