52. Chapter 52 Collect money according to market price
Author: Nanfeng Shili Passing
The girls who came to him to buy clothes put them on as soon as they got home.
They all had good family backgrounds and were considered "modern girls" in the village.
This time I was wearing something new that no one else had ever seen before.
As the news spread, the whole commune, and even several communes, came to inquire.
"Where did you buy these clothes?"
The girl wearing the clothes looked up to the sky: "My clothes are from the South, and you can't even buy them if you have money.
Is there someone in our village who runs the transportation business, and I have a good relationship with his wife, so he agreed to help me carry it?"
"Really?"
When he heard "Southern goods", the other person's eyes lit up. These three words are simply synonymous with fashionable goods.
Everyone knows that the economy in the south is developed, but it is really not easy to go out by car or boat these days and have to ask for a letter of introduction.
"Can you please ask your fellow villagers to bring some to us?"
"Please."
"Didn't you say that your relationship is good? There must be no problem."

Lu Yongguo went out to drive a car. Que Yaqian thought that the food at home was enough, so she didn't go out to the fields. She bought two books and stayed at home with An An to read.
Once you have this idea, just take a look at it first, and let’s talk about it later if you pass the exam.
It’s just that it’s May now, and it’s no longer possible to take the exam this year, and it will have to be next year.
The weather is getting hotter.
Que Yaqian turned over the book with one hand, and held a fan in the other hand to fan An An, both to keep cool and to drive away mosquitoes.
It happened that some time ago, Lu Yongguo gave a watermelon to the girl who had brought clothes, so Cree Yaqian cut a few pieces for An An to eat.
The remaining ice is in the water, waiting for Lu Wenqi and Wang Qiaoping to eat when they return from work.
An An held the watermelon in both hands while standing on tiptoes to read her mother's book.
Cree Yaqian couldn't help but laugh or cry. Can she understand?
But this child is naturally curious about books.
One loves to eat, the other loves books.
"Sister Yaqian, sister Yaqian..."
At this time, the shouts outside the door broke the peace of the mother and daughter.
Cree Yaqian hurriedly went out to take a look.
This is the third girl of the Fang family, Fang Jing.
"Ah, it's nothing." Fang Jing said with a smile on her face.
An An stood by the door and called out obediently: "Aunt Fang."
"Hey." Fang Jing hurriedly responded, and then praised: "This kid An An has such a sweet mouth, he is so popular."
"Then what." She said, and handed a pack of dried dates to Cree Yaqian's hand: "My brother and his factory gave these to you during the Chinese New Year, so you and your child can drink them when you are fine."
"Then why are you so embarrassed?"
Cree Yaqian wanted to refuse, but Fang Jing grabbed her and pushed her over: "Just take it, I'll..."
When Que Yaqian saw her like this, she guessed something.
"Jingjing, is there something wrong with you?"
"Yes, it's a little something, hehe, hehe..."
"Come in and sit down first."
Cree Yaqian called people in. She had just poured a bowl of sugar water when she heard someone outside shouting: "Yaqian, Yaqian, are you at home?"
Cree Yaqian:……
This guy came just in time.
In less than one afternoon, four or five groups of people came to the house.
Cree Yaqian poured sugar water and cut the remaining half of the watermelon for them to eat.
As a result, everyone came here for one thing.
"Yaqian, my sister liked the dress that Brother Lu brought me last time so much that she pestered me to buy her one. Could you please ask Brother Lu to bring another one back?"
"Sister Yaqian, my cousin also wants to bring one."
"And my eldest niece and third cousin."
…………
"Uh..." Cree Yaqian paused, she was a little confused.
Last time, everyone was from the same village, so it was easy to do things by the way.
But this time, there were so many things, not only was it troublesome to buy them all, but it was also a problem to carry them back.
She also didn't expect that just doing a favor would lead to so many things.
"Yongguo didn't go south this time." Que Yaqian reasoned.
"Then let Brother Lu take a detour."
Cree Yaqian:……
She hates people who can't understand voice-overs.
"It doesn't matter, we'll just pay for the tolls and gas."
"I know it's hard, Brother Lu. My niece is really pestering me and I can't help it. Can you just be a helper?"
"By the way, Yaqian, look at these eggs. They are fresh. Take them and replenish your health."
"There is also this honey. You can soak it in water and drink it in the summer. Let it cool down. It will be sweet and relieve the heat."
…………
Before Cree Yaqian could react, her hands were already stuffed full of things.
She looked at this thing and suddenly had a plan in her mind: "In this case, then...it's not impossible to bring it with you, but there are some things that need to be made clear."
After saying that, he smiled sheepishly: "Actually, we are all fellow villagers, so these words can be regarded as foreigners.
But you know, you guys, the people of Yongguo are honest and do it for the sake of the fellow villagers. They don’t even ask for money, and they also subsidize a lot of money themselves.
Now that so many people are involved, and many of them are from other villages, we will lose money if we don't collect money.
Add to this the gas cost of traveling back and forth, and the delayed work.
We charge these items according to the retail price outside.
Well... it’s okay to buy one or two floors cheaper, but it’s really a loss if it’s too much.”
Forehead……
After Cree Yaqian finished speaking, there was silence in the room.
"Hey, what's this?"
The one who spoke was Fang Jing, who came first.
Her family is rich, among her brothers, one is a worker in a factory, and the other is a soldier in the army. She is the only daughter in the family, and she is doted on by heaven.
She usually had a good relationship with Cree Yaqian, but when she saw Cree Yaqian was in trouble, she immediately agreed.
“This is how it should be.
We usually don’t have to spend so much money when we go to state-owned stores to buy them. What Brother Lu brought back for me are all the latest styles, and the prices are one or two levels lower than those outside, which is already interesting enough."
"What? Some people still want people to help for free?"
Fang Jing turned back and glanced at them.
"It's really interesting. You didn't even take the money last time and you still think about it?
What’s the point of helping again and again after helping once?
You talk about paying for gas and travel expenses, but what about Brother Lu’s salary for missing work? What about the hard work of helping you buy things for each family? Are these all being given to others for nothing?
What? I owe you something?"
"Sister Yaqian, that's it. You can ask Brother Lu to carry it for me. It will be at the market price. No discount is required. I will buy it."
"As for the others..."
Fang Jing glanced at everyone.
"Hmph, just now I shouted 'Brother Lu' very nicely, but now I pretend to be dumb when I talk about not helping in vain.
It’s okay not to bring this kind of person to them.”
Fang Jing was used to being arrogant and pampered by her family members. She was not afraid of anything and would say anything to others, only to make those people's faces turn red with shame.
