Fight the Giants

  Chapter 131 Gotta do something (thanks, please move forward)

   At sunset, the family pushed the cart back to Qionghua Lane.

   Mrs. Yang went into the kitchen to cook, greeted Huo Xi and Yang Fu for dinner, and prepared to go out with a food box.

   "Mom, don't you want to eat with us?"

   "Mother still wants to deliver food to your father, and I happen to eat with your father. Take Nian'er back by the way."

   "Mom, why don't you stay on the boat with dad and come back tomorrow morning."

  Mr. Yang paused, then shook her head: "Mother, don't worry about you two." After speaking, she gave Huo Xi and Yang Fu a few words, and hurried out the door with her lunch box.

   "Mom, you hire a car, don't walk!"

   "Hey, I see."

   Normally, Yang would not be willing to hire a car, but Nian'er hasn't nursed for a day, so she doesn't know if she will panic, and her heart is burning with urgency.

   After dinner, Yang Fu grabbed the cleaning job, and Huo Xi sat in the yard thinking about today's affairs.

  I bumped into Mama Sun today, and although she was quick-witted to get rid of her suspicions, she still couldn't take it lightly. Still have to do some camouflage in the future.

  Although it is said that there are not many people who know the inside story, but it is not guaranteed that there is some crooked idea from that heartless person.

  Mother Sun... Huo Xi clenched her fists tightly.

   One day I will make you pay!

   Being spied on by this old woman today, I can't do nothing. Otherwise, I feel panicked.

  Mother Sun can't meet her in a hurry, and even if she does, she can't face it face to face. She remembered that Mama Sun's whole family seemed to be servants of the Zhang family. Does her man help the Wang family manage the shop or the Zhuangzi?

  She seems to have another daughter, and her son-in-law also seems to be from the mansion. There is also an only son, who is married or not, I don't remember.

  I have to think about it carefully, and I have to get rid of the depression in my heart.

   And the nanny...

   Not sure if dead or alive. If it wasn't for the vigilant nanny, she and Nian'er might not be alive.

  Yang Fu came out after washing the dishes, and saw Huo Xi, a small person with his head buried in his knees, huddled together, his little helpless appearance made people feel distressed.

  Yang Fu didn't dare to go forward, he just stood at the door of the kitchen, watching.

   After a long while, Huo Xi felt his body was going numb, so he stood up, and when he turned around, he saw Yang Fu standing there in a daze.

"uncle…"

   "Huh? Ah, I just cleaned up the kitchen."

   "Wow, my mother will be very happy to come back."

   "Yes, my sister must be very happy." After a pause, "Xi'er, shall we go and take stock of the goods?"

"OK."

  Yang Fu let out a sigh of relief, and took her to the warehouse to count things, and after he came out, he counted things on the cart.

   Today, nearly four stones of cane sugar were sold in one day! The spending power of this outer city is not weak.

   "There are several shops that ask for dozens of catties, and ordinary people ask for less."

   "Although ordinary people want a small amount, they can't hold up to a large number of people." Yang Fu looked happy.

   "And we sold so much in one day, twenty shi will be sold out without much effort. Besides, it won't melt if left in winter."

  Huo Xi nodded. In addition to worrying about this batch of cane sugar, she was also worried about that truckload of leather goods.

  Not many fur goods were sold today, only seven or eight pieces were sold, and one-tenth of the cost was not recovered.

   Is it going to be sold in the inner city?

   No, no, she doesn't want to go into the inner city right now.

   "Xi'er, don't worry, when the weather gets colder, it might be easy to sell." After a day of hot sales, Yang Fu is not worried anymore.

"Look at our linen. If we sell it for a few days, it will be gone. The cotton cloth will turn yellow after a long time, but our linen is not afraid of being put away. I was thinking, if we can't sell it, we will sell it slowly next year." , I don’t think it’s very easy to sell.”

   "I don't know if brother Yu is back, I want to sell his linen too." Yang Fu kept talking, very happy.

  Huo Xi nodded with a smile.

  Backcloth is worn, and a single piece of linen can make two to two and a half clothes for an adult, and a few tens of pennies to make a suit. The old ones can be worn for a long time, and the price is still acceptable for one cent and five cents.

  Furthermore, many people have a complex of distant fragrance and near stink. When they hear that the cloth is from other places, they all want to try something new, so that this batch of linen is not worried about selling.

  Mr. Yang came back with Nian'er on her back, and seeing the two children taking inventory of the inventory, trying to figure out how to sell it, she was both happy and relieved.

   "Mother told your father about the situation of selling goods today, but your father still complained that he didn't catch up with this lively scene."

   "How is Dad?" There is no way, her family's boat has to be guarded, otherwise it will be rowed away, where can I find it.

   "Well, he sold goods along the river during the day, and sold a lot. He also caught a lot of fish in the fishing box, and he also caught some shrimps and crabs, and they were all cooked."

   "Did dad stop at the outer city ferry at night?"

   "No, your father said that several families were invited to hunt together at night."

   "Brother-in-law wants a night arrest? With whom? Brother Yu, the Zou family?" Yang Fu was eager to try when he heard about the night arrest.

"No, it seems that Zou Sheng's grandma has been feeling unwell these days, so your brother-in-law didn't call him. I heard that it was the three single boatmen who were assigned to Taoyedu when we went to Huai'an together. They also planned to stop at night. At Taoyedu. Your brother-in-law probably wanted to make friends with them, so he made an appointment with three of their night catchers, saying that it was just to see their character."

   "Those three families are all young guys, and their families are all from the villages near Jiangning. They are all poor farmers. Their character looks...not bad." Huo Xi tilted his head thinking about the three families.

   "That's good. Everyone in Taoyedu knows the basics. If you mix in a bunch of shit-stirring sticks, it won't be good if you break your friendship."

   "What about Brother Yu, hasn't come back yet?" Yang Fu asked again.

"Oh, just as I was about to say, your brother-in-law said that Yu Jiang had already returned, and that he spent all his money to bring the three of them out. Today he borrowed five taels of silver from your brother-in-law to buy a boat, and said It’s about the same size as our old boat. He also said that when he finished the boat, he would find it tomorrow and get the linen to sell.”

   "It came out?" Yang Fu's eyes widened, and he grinned again: "Then Brother Yu must be very happy!"

   "That's for sure. The wife and daughter are all around, and there are people who can talk and do things, can you not be happy?"

  Mr. Yang was also happy for Yu Jiang, and took another look at Yang Fu: "Look at you, it seems like you picked someone up."

"Sister! Can't I be happy for Brother Yu? We are also a family together, so we slowly get along. Brother Yu changed to a big boat this time. He fished, and someone helped him untangle the fish and mend the fishing net. Usually there are people talking, isn’t it great?”

"Okay, okay. You just look at him. He is busy all year round. He is the last to return to the ferry at night and the earliest to get up in the morning. You know that he has not saved a lot of money. He has raised a family, but his own small family has nothing to do. I didn't take good care of it. Usually I don't even smile."

  While listening, Huo Xi recalled the image of Yu Jiang in his mind.

  Thinking in my heart, this is a person who is responsible, willing to endure hardships, and a person who can win cooperation. He couldn't help pursing his lips.

  Mr. Yang carried Nian'er into the room to sleep, and when she came out, seeing the two children were still discussing Yu Jiang, she echoed her a few words.

   "Sister, Xi'er said that you are in business, this is it..." Yang Fu gave Yang a thumbs up.

  Seeing that Huo Xi also gave her a thumbs-up, Mrs. Yang immediately puffed up her chest proudly: "Although your mother is illiterate, she doesn't feel afraid to sell things in the streets."

   "Then when our family earns money in the future, we will also open a shop and let my mother be the shopkeeper."

  Mr. Yang grinned at both sides of her mouth: "Shopkeeper, what's the problem?" He looked full of confidence.

"Shopkeeper? Let's wait until you think about selling our fur goods first. I think you sold all the eight fur goods today. You should also think about it and sell the rest." Yang Fu excited With Young.
