After Rong and the boys left, Ying Xun called back. Father Rong was dumbfounded when he heard that the silk had received 35 yuan a kilogram. The price offered by other people in their village is only five yuan. If it is spring silkworm, the quality is good, and it can be paid six yuan, but it is far from thirty-five yuan!
Ying Xun wasn't too surprised at the price. They will spend a lot of money on shipping, but they can still make some money: "If it's spring silkworms, they can sell for forty yuan a kilogram."
Father Rong is almost stuttering. Thirty-five yuan a kilogram, if they have harvested all the silkworms from their three villages, it will cost hundreds of thousands.
"This, this, then how much should we buy from the villagers?" Father Rong received a call from Ying Xun last night, saying that he would negotiate a contract today. So I went to the village head this morning to talk about it. I knew that the price would be higher than what I bought in the village now, so I was very happy. .
"It's not too high, so we will accept it at a price of seven to eight yuan, depending on the quality." Ying Xun said: "But now they only need 500 kilograms. After receiving the goods here, they will confirm that the quality of the large goods is no problem. , will add orders."
This method also gave them time to relax. After all, not all silkworms spin silk on the same day, but the cocooning time is not long, only about two days and two nights, so their first batch of goods should be before the start of school. can be shipped out.
Father Rong nodded over there. After hearing the price, he was a little dazed and hadn't reacted yet.
After all these are resolved, they have to talk about freight. They are a small town, and only fruits and silk are shipped out.
Father Rong wasn't worried about this. Some of the comrades who came back from the army with him worked at the train station. The family members take the position of relationship management. More than ten years have passed, and they have been in the management team for a long time. But because he was doing well, Dad Rong didn't contact him all the time, for fear of making people feel like posting it. But now that his children are working so hard, he has to be useful.
The two of them talked for almost ten minutes. Seeing that the phone bill was about to exceed twenty yuan, Father Rong quickly stopped.
Ying Xun also felt that he couldn't speak clearly on the phone, so he told Dad Rong to remember to find someone to install the phone, so he hung up in a hurry.
Phone calls in this era are not just pretending, you have to make an appointment, and the other party has to calculate the cost according to the length of the route, as well as labor costs, etc. The Rong family is too far away from the town, so the price is not low, but for business, everything It's all worth it.
After the business was negotiated, Dad Rong became busy, but Ying Xun was idle. Rong Yu went out again, so he asked Rong's mother if she wanted to go out for a stroll. There are still many scenic spots around the Beijing Railway Station.
It's only four o'clock in the afternoon, and Mother Rong also felt bored going back to her room, so she agreed.
They went to the ruins of the Ming city wall. Since the domestic economy is not very good, although it is considered a tourist attraction, there are not many people, and foreigners can be seen occasionally. The two walked around here for less than 20 minutes before going to the nearby shopping mall. It's a rare trip, so I have to bring something back, so I bought a set of clothes for each person, and some special products.
It was almost dark when the two strolled around, they realized that Rong Yu was afraid that no one would be found when he came back, so they hurried back to the hotel, but Rong Yu hadn't come back yet.
"It's been a long time since we saw each other, so it's not surprising to play for a longer time." Mother Rong was not worried about Rong Yu, but Ying Xun, who answered absent-mindedly.
Because the two came back in a hurry, they didn't eat, so they went outside to buy some food and came back.
When Rong Yu came back, it was almost eight o'clock in the evening. He was sent back by his gangsters, came to say hello to Rong's mother, and left again.
Ying Xun sat by the bed, looked at Rong Yu's smile, and asked a little sourly, "Very happy?"
Rong Yu nodded again and again, while laughing, she took her clothes and prepared to take a bath in her mother's room. There are too many people in the public bathroom at this time, and he doesn't want to wait.
Ying Xun sat for a while, waited for Rong Yu to leave, then went to the end of the bed and took out two bags containing newly bought clothes, took them out and turned to go out.
That night, except for Rong's mother and Rongyu, Ying Xun didn't sleep well at all. The main reason was that Rong and his small mouth talked a lot about him and his brothers. Yes, no sleep at all. My mind was running wild and thinking about a lot of things, and I didn't fall asleep until early in the morning.
The next day, because the check-out time was twelve o'clock, but they went back around four o'clock, so they got up early. This was limited to Rong's mother and Ying Xun. They packed up their things, and Rong Yu still hugged the quilt and slept soundly. It was almost ten o'clock before being woken up by Ying Xun.
"Mom, I'm going to the bank." Ying Xun went to the next room and whispered to Rong's mother.
It was agreed yesterday that the payment will be made around ten o'clock, and it will be more reassuring to confirm the payment before going back.
"Go!" Rong's mother looked outside, seeing no one and continued: "Remember to check if there is no one around when checking the money, so as not to be watched."
Although they don't withdraw money, people with really bad intentions can't do anything about it, especially the bad guys like to stare at outsiders.
Ying Xun nodded and said, "I see. If I come back before twelve o'clock, I will bring lunch. If I don't come back before twelve o'clock, you and Xiaoyu will wait for me at the KFC at the station. Things from that place are not counted." expensive."
Rong Yu must have been there, Rong's mother doesn't know if she has been there.
Mother Rong nodded, there are too many people at the station, and there are so many small restaurants of all kinds, it's hard to find someone, but if you really go there, it's easy: "Yes, it's easy to recognize there."
Ying Xun continued: "Let Xiaoyu wear yesterday's suit, it's a bit cold today."
Mother Rong looked out the window, there was still sun in the morning, but now the weather is indeed a bit cloudy, so she responded.
Ying Xun left quickly, and Rong and everyone disappeared after washing. Instead, he saw a new set of clothes on the bed, a red sweater with the word "good" written on it, and a pair of jeans.
Rong Yu's eyes lit up, he ran to the next door with his clothes in his arms, and spread them out: "Mom, new clothes?"
Mother Rong thought of what Ying Xun said, and said with a smile: "Yes, I went to buy it with Xiao Xun yesterday, put it on and show it to my mother."
Rong Yu nodded, ran back to the room, and quickly changed out.
The red sweater makes the face and skin more white and tender, and the jeans and sneakers make the whole person very energetic.
Mother Rong turned the man around and said with a smile, "Looks good, looks good, my son is so good-looking."
Rong Yu smiled foolishly.
After changing clothes, Rong Yu was pushed to have breakfast, and then packed his things, it was not yet eleven o'clock. Originally, they planned to wait for Ying Xun here until twelve o'clock, but considering that it was so dark outside, the two discussed it and decided to check out early and go to the station.
KFC was built just outside the station, and there weren't many people inside. When the two of them opened the door and entered, they attracted many people's attention.
Rong Yudang couldn't see it, so he took Rong's mother to find a place to sit down, and glanced around, all he saw were men and women in well-dressed clothes, with a bit of arrogance on their faces.
At this time, it was only three years since KFC entered the Chinese market. Because it was a foreign restaurant, the decoration was good, and it felt very high-end. And the prices of the things inside are indeed a little more expensive for today's people, so the people who come in are generally considered petty bourgeoisie.
Of course, there are also those who have swollen faces to pretend to be fat. They only come here to eat a meal for the sake of face. When they go out, they are people who have eaten foreign food and are in line with internationalization.
Rong Yu didn't eat less before, and he wasn't a big fan of food, but this is a trend, and everyone thinks eating KFC is a good thing. But for Rong Yu now, he has witnessed the process of "international restaurant" becoming a fast food restaurant, so he doesn't feel ashamed.
On the contrary, my mother has never eaten it, so I can try it.
"I don't want it. I can bring one for Yaoyao, but it costs three yuan each. I don't know if it will be broken." Although Rong's mother has been frugal for nearly twenty years, she is also a person who has lived a good life. Now her family is improving. , and I wouldn't be reluctant, but there is no KFC in their town, so it would be difficult to take her to have a meal.
"It shouldn't break." Rong Yu also thought he could bring one to his sister, "Bring one to Dad, too."
"Your father doesn't like to eat." Rong's mother shook her head, flipped through the menu in her hand, and was a little dumbfounded when she saw the price on it. The outside world really moves fast, and one meal per person will cost five or six yuan for a hamburger and a glass of drink, and you won't be full.
Mother Rong really wanted to bring it to her daughter, but it was three yuan each. What a pity it broke when it went home! The current salary in their town is only three or four yuan a day!
In the past, Rong Yu thought it would be bad if it was bad, but now he is also entangled, three yuan is really a lot.
Rong Yu thought for a while and said, "If not, let's take my sister to the city to eat."
Mother Rong said with a smile: "How can I go to the city to eat for a meat bun? And there may not be any in the city."
Rong Yu thinks about it too, it takes them more than an hour to go to the city, and the car ride is quite expensive, and if they can't find it in the city, they will lose the money for the car.
The two of them sat at KFC until almost twelve o'clock before Ying Xun came over, during which Rong and Rong's mother ate a cup of treats.
Seeing Ying Xun coming over, Rong Yu couldn't wait to ask: "How is it?"
"The account has arrived, a deposit of seven thousand." Ying Xun sat down, whispered, and then asked: "What were you struggling with just now?"
Rong Yu immediately told about his mother's entanglement about where he ran.
Ying Xun said dumbfoundingly: "Fried food is usually stored for three to five days, no problem."
Rong Yu immediately said: "Then bring one for my sister, and my father should also bring one, or else watching my sister eat it will make my father so sad. Mom will also eat one and try the taste."
Mother Rong thinks that since she can bring two, it’s okay to bring two, but she doesn’t need to, and is about to refuse, Ying Xun also said: “Mom, let’s try it too, if you don’t like it, you won’t eat it next time, and I’ll eat one too. Eat too."
Ying Xun didn't like to eat it. In his previous life, he also ate it because of tolerance and found it average.
Rong Yu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
In the end, all three of them ordered, and ordered two takeaway packages to take back to Yaoyao and Dad Rong.
The three of them ate a meal and drank Coke, which cost more than ten yuan. But Ying Xun and Rong Yu couldn't get enough of this food, so they went to a small restaurant outside and ate two bowls of meat noodles. It only cost 1.5 yuan, but it was very satisfying.
After eating the noodles, it was almost three o'clock, and it started to rain lightly. The three of them didn't bring umbrellas, so they just prepared to enter the station. Unexpectedly, there was a shout from behind, and when they turned around, they saw Guo Zhengzheng and Chen Lie carrying a big sack towards here. Chong, followed by Xie An and the others.
Tolerance and a little do not want.
The author has something to say:
My sister, a third- and fourth-tier town, was paid 390 yuan in 2005, plus 10 yuan for full attendance, 400 yuan. It only includes one meal, and I don’t know how I survived that day.
