"Really? How much do you charge? Three or forty cents per pound? Are you sure?"
The village chief suspected that he had heard wrongly. With such a good thing, who would go to the fields to do farm work?
I worked hard at farm work for a year, but in the end I didn’t know how much money I could get back for my hard work this year.
If the year is bad, you may lose some seed money.
"Yes, you heard it right." Gu Anran reassured the village chief, "Just go to the radio and we will accept everything."
"There has been little rain this year, and many villagers' fields have dried up and cannot grow crops. If this thing can be sold for money, it will really be of great help to the neighbors in the village!"
The village chief rushed away happily. As soon as he left, the family surrounded Gu Anran and asked her questions.
"Brothers and sisters, how can you tell others this good way to make a fortune? Everyone comes to dig it, and within a few days the villagers will dig it all up!"
"That's right!" Wang Shuzhen also became anxious: "An Ran, Mom knows that you are kind-hearted, but we have to be selfish when we should be selfish! We make money, and our family's life is better than everyone else's. I want to ask about ways to make money.
.On the other hand, if things were the other way around, if our family was so poor that it would be hard to eat, not only would there be no one to help us, but we would also end up being laughed at by everyone."
They are afraid that the villagers will dig up all the rehmannia glutinosa and they will not be able to make any money. They should be more cautious when it comes to making money.
"If you don't do it for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. I understand this truth." Gu Anran winked at them, "From today on, our family will not go out to dig the land. Tomorrow morning, let Mo Bei and his eldest brother go out to rent a car.
The bigger the bucket, the better the car. We wait at home to collect it, and then take it to the city to resell it to earn the difference. This is a process of switching from retail to wholesale."
What does it mean to switch from retail to wholesale? Wang Shuzhen and Yang Tao don’t understand. They only know that they could earn 70 cents per pound of rehmannia glutinosa. Now they take other people’s and resell them. Not only do they have to pay for hiring a car, but they also earn 3 cents less per pound.
Forty cents! Doesn’t it mean that the more you collect, the more you lose?
Gu Anran couldn't explain it clearly to them for a while, and finally just said: "Our selling of rehmannia glutinosa has attracted widespread attention from the villagers. They are greedy. If we don't let them taste some sweetness, what will happen later?"
Our business will be made difficult by everyone in various ways. Only when everyone is profitable can this business continue to be prosperous for a long time."
"But there are only those rehmannia glutinosa. The villagers know that they can be sold for money, but they are all gone in a few days! What should we do in the future? What should we use to sell them for money?"
"Yes, what Tao'er said is exactly what I'm thinking. The rehmannia glutinosa has been dug up by others. What will we do in the future?"
Gu Anran's eyes flashed, and he said with an eccentric smile: "In a few days, wouldn't it be nice if I could earn the money that I had worked so hard for a year or two? Besides, even if I sell wild rehmannia glutinosa,
After that, we can still breed! The breeding cycle is long, and when the rehmannia glutinosa matures, we can resell other seasonal things!"
"Hi!" Wang Shuzhen waved her hands and looked confused and irritated: "Second daughter-in-law, you read a lot. We can't even imagine the things in your mind, and we don't need to waste our brains to think about it! From now on, the whole family will
Just follow you and we will do whatever you ask us to do."
"Okay!" Gu Anran agreed readily.
The village chief was really proactive. After a while, the big loudspeaker in the village started broadcasting about the occurrence of Rehmannia glutinosa in Mo family.
The villagers all thought it was amazing that the honey pot that had been growing under their noses for so many years was so valuable?
So how much money was wasted in the past!
Many villagers came to Mo Bei's house for verification and asked if this was true. After receiving Mo Bei's affirmative answer, the villagers went digging one after another.
Early the next morning, the villagers took the rehmannia glutinosa dug by their own families and removed all the soil to the door of Mo Bei's house, waiting to be sold.
Within a week, the villagers dug up all the honey pots in sight. Even the nearby villages, where there were honey pots, were dug up by the people of Qingfeng Village.
After a busy week, there was no more goods to collect. The family sat together to calculate the accounts. In seven days, the net income was 4,900 yuan.
Gu Anran gave Wang Shuzhen 900 yuan, and she wanted to share the remaining 4,000 yuan with her eldest brother's family, but Mo Guangshen firmly disagreed. The way to make money was taken by her younger brother and sister-in-law, and they could do it if they did it themselves.
That's great, but he is already very grateful that they are willing to lend a helping hand to his eldest brother and make money together, so how can he get the same amount of money as them?
Mo Guangshen counted out one thousand yuan from the two thousand yuan that Gu Anran gave him and gave it back to her, "I will only take one thousand yuan. The bulk of it should belong to you and your wife. Both Yang Tao and I feel sorry for taking this one thousand yuan."
"Okay." Gu Anran didn't force it, "There will be many opportunities to make money in the future, let's make it together."
Mo Guangshen rubbed his rough hands together excitedly. He had not studied well since he was a child, so he had to grow crops with his family. The matter of growing crops was calculated every day. If he could manage the food and drink of the family, it would be considered good. How could he have any spare money to save?
?
Only a few days ago? Suddenly he made a thousand yuan in his hand. Mo Guangshen felt like he was in a dream.
Yang Tao was even more embarrassed. She thought about her siblings when it came to making money. She thought back then she went to her parents' house to sulk because she was stingy about a chicken.
She held Gu Anran's hand and smiled sheepishly: "Anran, today happens to be a day to catch a big market. Later, the two of us will go to the market to buy some pieces of fabric, and I will make some new clothes for you and mom.
"
"Sister-in-law can also make clothes?" Gu Anran raised her eyebrows. Sister-in-law can make clothes. She has the development of clothing fashion in the next few decades in her mind. She draws and designs, and sister-in-law makes patterns and looks, and invests in building a ready-made clothing store.
It’s also a good choice!
Wang Shuzhen chatted, "Your sister-in-law is very good at making clothes. She is one of the best in their village!"
"Really? That's great! Let's go gather now!"
They went to the street and bought a lot of fabrics. When they came back, Gu Anran lay down at the table and drew pictures.
Mo Bei handed her a bowl of mung bean soup: "Take a break and have a bowl of mung bean soup to quench your thirst. You have been painting for several hours. You can draw one or two patterns first and let my sister-in-law do it for you first."
Gu Anran pointed to a skirt on a drawing and asked Mo Bei: "Do you think the skirt I drew looks good?"
Mo Beiduan looked at it for a while and said: "The style is quite novel. I have never seen anyone else wear a skirt of this style. I just don't know if such a novel style will definitely look good on the body."
"Clothes are also chosen by people. The same piece of clothing cannot look good on everyone."
"That seems to be the truth." Mo Bei raised his hand and rubbed the top of her hair and sighed: "If you read a lot, you are indeed smart. You can always tell the truth that others can't, and you can always think of things that others can't.
Method."
Gu Anran twisted and bumped Mo Bei's shoulder and winked at him: "I heard you were asking where to buy bricks. Do you want to build a house? Can you wait a little longer? I want to get a ready-made garment first.
