(16) Encountering a Noble at a Bad Start
Ah Fu did not have much experience in the mountain products business. He groped his way forward. Buying mountain products was also a very hard job. They had to go from village to village to transport and store them. In the evening, Ah Fu was looking through the large pile of materials that her uncle had sent to contract the mountain.
Ah Xiang came in with a basin of hot water and said,"Ah Fu, soak your feet. Seeing you running without touching the ground these few days, I'm burning your feet to relieve fatigue.”
Ah Fu put down the materials in her hands. She sat on the edge of the bed and soaked her feet in hot water. Ah Xiang bent down to wash Ah Fu's feet, but Ah Fu reached out and pulled Ah Xiang up, letting her sit next to him and lean in his arms.
Ah Fu said to Ah Xiang,"Ah Xiang, we could have had a beautiful wedding." This 20,000 yuan was saved up by you and I. I bet it all on the business this time. You won't blame me if I screw it up, right?”
Ah Xiang said,"Ah Fu, don't worry too much. We're still young and not afraid of trouble. No one had eyes when doing business. No matter what happens, I will follow you.”
Ah Fu hugged Ah Xiang tightly and said,"Good Ah Xiang, you're the best mother-in-law in the world." Let's work hard together. We'll just have a simple wedding. At worst, I'll bring you out to work and we'll go far away.”
Ah Xiang said,"There won't be any ifs, Ah Fu. I believe you."”
Ah Xiang squatted down to wash Ah Fu's feet. Ah Xiang was an ordinary village girl. She was simple and unadorned, but her body and mind were as beautiful as gold.
The village officials of the various villages helped to publicize it, and the old secretary of Yushu Valley was the guarantor. Mountain people sold mountain products and fruits, especially those who did not have a car but had manpower. It was originally very difficult, but when he heard the good news of someone coming to buy it, he rushed to tell everyone. After three days of purchasing, four-fifths of Ah Fu's money had turned into three large piles of goods. Ah Fu didn't expect the goods to arrive so quickly. Ah Fu called Sister Jin to ask about the situation.
Ah Fu called Big Sis Jin and asked,""Big Sister Jin, I'm Ah Fu. My goods have been collected. Is there anyone who wants the goods?”
Big Sister Jin replied to Ah Fu,"Ah Fu, no problem. There are cars that need goods day and night." I've already contacted the customer who wants the goods. Just deliver them over quickly. It's a monkey."
Ah Fu went to borrow a car from his uncle, who sent Ah Fu the only 130 large car in the village. Ah Fu brought people to load the truck and transport the goods to the small county overnight. It was already past eight o'clock at night when he packed the car. It was very dark, so Ah Fu called everyone to have a casual meal. The road conditions were not very good. There were still a lot of goods. If the driver hadn't stopped them, Ah Fu and the others would have gone higher. Ah Fu didn't know that the big-headed car in the village was also a broken car.
The truck left the small town and headed for the county town. On the way, there was a sudden loud noise and the rear tire burst. The driver slammed on the brakes and almost fell into the ditch by the roadside. Many of the goods in the car fell to the ground, and the few of them were so scared that their souls flew away. After a while, Ah Fu calmed down and got out of the car to see what was wrong.
The driver turned to the back of the car and felt around. The right rear tire was flat. It was so dark that they didn't even bring a flashlight. The driver was Ah Fu's uncle, who told everyone to find firewood to light the fire. Ah Fu, Ah Man, Ah Cang, and a few others unloaded the slanted goods from the car. After tidying up the goods scattered on the ground, everyone hurriedly took off their spare tires to repair the car.
the house leaks, but it happens to meet continuous rain. He lifted the car and changed the spare tire. The moment the jack fell, Lun Tai was flattened. The spare tire was also broken. The family had been busy for a long time in vain, and Ah Fu was so anxious that she was running around in circles. He had no choice but to wait until dawn. The driver told everyone to find more firewood and corn stalks. They lit up the front and back of the car to prevent passing cars from bumping into them.
Ah Cang said to Ah Fu,"Brother Fu, give my father a call and ask him if he has any ideas." It was just past eleven o'clock. It was still early.”
Ah Fu said,"Ah Cang, do you know if there are any carts in our town that can pull goods?”
Little Uncle's driver came over and said," There's no more. There are only a few broken motorbikes that can transport goods." It wasn't accurate. He couldn't pull so many goods. This matter had caused a ruckus, and he was out of the village and out of the shop. How can this be good!"
"Uncle, where's the nearest repair shop?" Ah Fu asked the driver.”
"From here, the nearest one is in front," said the driver's uncle. It's still seven or eight li away."
Ah Fu said,"Waiting isn't a solution. There aren't any passing cars in the middle of the night!" Little Uncle is here to look after the car. The four of us will roll around to repair it.
The family was at their wits 'end. From afar, he saw lights flashing in the distance. It was getting closer and closer. A car drove over from the opposite side.
The driver's uncle said,"If only it was a car from our village." I know all the drivers in our village. Quickly set the fire in the middle of the road and stop the car to see where it came from.”
The car drove over and the driver stopped when he saw the fire. It was also a big car. Two people got out of the car and walked to the fire.
With the help of the fire, Ah Cang recognized the person walking in front and shouted in surprise,""Uncle Cui, it's you!"
Ah Cang ran over and stood in front of the person."Uncle Cui, our car is broken. Please help us fix it.”
Little Uncle's chauffeur also walked forward and said," It's Village Chief Cui. The car has been fired and the spare tire is broken." Can I borrow your spare tire?”
It turned out to be the township head of Shangpo Village. He was quite a burly man, and his appearance could not be seen clearly even in the dark. The township head said,"Ah Cang, it's you. Old Zhou, don't worry." Old Liu, quickly bring a flashlight over. Let's go over and help them take a look.”
Old Liu was the driver, so he went back to the driver's seat to get a flashlight. The township head took the flashlight and went to the back of the car to check on the situation.
The head of the township looked around and said,"Old Liu, bring the spare tires from our car and help them change."”
The two drivers also knew each other, so Ah Man and the others quickly called for help to change the tires. The head of the township asked Ah Cang,"Xiao Cang, how did you start a business?" Young people should have done something long ago. They should have the courage to think and do.”
Ah Cang said,"Uncle Cui, this is my Brother Fu." We just came back from overseas. He was the one who led us. Brother Fu, this is our village head, Cui.”
Ah Fu quickly took out a cigarette and handed it to the township head."Greetings, Village Chief Cui. Thank you, township head. I didn't expect the first cart of goods to be ruined. How unlucky."
"You are Zhou Afu," said the village head. Secretary Zhou told me about your situation. You still want to contract the mountain, is that good? I was planning to find a time to have a good talk with you. The country's policy of making the people rich was a very good opportunity. We're relatively isolated here, so we can't see the situation clearly. She had a weak foundation, no money, and no courage. Now, we need young people like you, educated young people, to lead by example. If you encounter any difficulties in the beginning, you don't have to be afraid. As long as you are brave enough, you can come to me anytime if you have any difficulties in the future. We can think of a solution together.”
Ah Fu said,"Thank you, township head. We will do our best." He didn't have any experience in the beginning, so he just kept his head down and did it!”
"Experience isn't something you get in your mother's womb," said Village Chief Cui.”
Soon, the tires were changed. The head of the township used a flashlight to light them up, then loaded the goods on the ground into the car and sealed it.
"Ah Fu, bring your broken tires to our car." I'll go to your area tomorrow to take a look. I'll send it to you when it's repaired. I'll give you guys a flashlight too. Hurry up and get on your way. Drive slowly on the road and be careful when driving at night!”
The township head's words were as firm as the chief's orders. Ah Fu said,"Thank you, township head. We'll be leaving now."”
