Chapter 41 (2/2)
“Contract?”
Zhao’er nodded: “If I hadn’t gone through the incident yesterday, I would have always felt that our country folks are honest and straightforward. As long as we say it verbally, it’s okay. But after yesterday, I don’t think so. It’s better to sign the contract. We collect vegetables regularly, and they can’t sell their vegetables to others at will.”
As a result, the vegetables in the nearby villages were almost completely taken up by them. Because of this, is it possible to sell the vegetables at any price in the future? Because of this, Xue Qinghuai couldn’t care to feel sad about what happened at home yesterday.
Seemingly seeing his thoughts, Zhao’er said: “Fourth Uncle, don’t think too much. We have limited manpower, and there are always places that we can’t take care of. And you forgot that the county is not far from here. If the price of vegetables exceeds a certain price, it is very likely that someone will go to other towns to buy vegetables instead of buying from us.”
The reason why there are two dealers, such as goods dealers, rice dealers, and cloth dealers, are all because they are relatively profitable, and those selling vegetables are simply not appreciated by others. It’s also because the vegetables are different from the others and cannot withstand the long journey. If it is left for too long, it will not be fresh.
“But you are thinking in the right direction. When this stall is finished, it will go smoothly. With more manpower in our hands, we will take a trip to the few villages we haven’t visited. It’s best to go to Anyang Township next door. If possible, we may be able to cover the entire Xia County area, and maybe your idea will become true.”
what idea? Naturally, the dream of selling vegetables at any price.
But this is just to think about. It is really difficult to achieve this step, and Zhao’er knows it.
“Others will be cloth dealers, tea dealers, rice dealers, so let’s be vegetable dealers in the future.”
The trip to Zuixianlou was also very successful.
After leaving Zuixianlou, the two drove to the Qingyuan Academy in their mule cart.
In the lovely spring, the sun was shining warmly on people, and when they walked into this long street full of plane trees, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Zhao’er jumped out of the cart and knocked on the door.
Not long after, an elderly school official came out from inside and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Greetings Mister, my younger brother is studying in the academy, and there is something urgent at home that needs his attention. Can you help me call him out?”
This school official was a little familiar with Zhao’er because Zhao’er has sent things several times before. Hearing this, he saw that the other party indeed had an anxious expression on her face, so he did not refuse, and after asking for the brother’s name, he went inside.
After a while, Xue TingRang walked out of the building.
He frowned slightly, and walked over in several strides as soon as he saw Zhao’er.
“what happened?”
Zhao’er pulled him aside and said: “It’s okay, don’t worry, I have something to find you for, so I had to find an excuse to call you out.”
Xue TingRang couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, and glanced at her twice: “You miss me?”
Uh, Zhao’er was taken aback. Without thinking too much about it, she said, “I want you to write some words for me, because I am in a hurry, I came to find you.”
Xue TingRang went silent in his heart. Zhao’er was really unable to understand affection. Seeing that she was indeed anxious, he asked: “What do you want me to write? You say it, and I will write for you.”
By this time, Zhao’er was rather embarrassed. Because there is too much to write, but there is only the little man who is a scholar by her side. She doesn’t know who to find, so she can only find him.
She talked about the ins and outs of the matter, and naturally talked about the turmoil at home yesterday. Hearing that Dafang took the opportunity to make trouble, Xue TingRang’s eyebrows creased unconsciously. He also heard that Zhao’er solved the matter perfectly. In the end, Dafang stole the chicken and failed to eat the rice, so his creased ink-stained long eyebrows loosened.
“So I want you to write some contracts for me, and I will go and find those people to sign them, so that nothing wrong may occur in the future.”
“This idea of yours is right, and it is good for your business, so that if someone is jealous and wants to grab business, they will pay a high price to suppress you.” Xue TingRang said.
Zhao’er was a little surprised: “Ting’er, how do you understand this?”
Xue TingRang cleared his throat, and said solemnly: “Reading can help make sense of the world. When clear headed, everything can be understand more naturally.”
“Reading is good, our Ting’er is getting more and more promising.” Zhaoer sighed.
Every time Zhao’er sighed like this, Xue TingRang could hear the meaning of “my family’s child has grown up”. He particularly hates that feeling, so he likes to put on a cold face, but not anymore.
He interrupted: “Then what do you plan to write? Nevermind, let me help you draft it. How much do you want to write? But I may not have enough paper.”
Zhao’er suddenly smiled, “I passed by Uncle Chen just now, and I bought you a stack of paper and ink.”
She went to get paper and ink in the car, and Xue TingRang also followed and greeted Xue Qinghuai.
“Is hundred sheets enough? Maybe you should write more.”
Zhao’er didn’t expect that he would write so much for her. When she thought about it, there weren’t many sheets, so she was a little embarrassed: “How can you write so many by yourself. How about write a few sheets and then rest? I’m not in a hurry.”
“It’s okay. If you have something to do, you can go first and come back at noon. I will bring the things to you.”
The two said a few more words, and then Xue TingRang went in while Zhao’er and Xue Qinghuai continued to stay here and wait for Jiang Wu.
It was almost half an hour before Jiang Wu drove the cart and sold out all the vegetables. It was because the wealthy family had many rules, so some time was wasted. However, it was a good start to say that it will be delivered tomorrow.
At the same time, classes in the academy have just finished.
Xue TingRang went out before, and Mao Badou was wondering if something happened in his family, and they waited until the class was off before taking the time to ask. However, before the words could be spoken, Xue TingRang grabbed the young man.
“Don’t talk and do me a favor. Help me copy the things on this paper a few times.”
