(17) Don't Fall Down and Move Forward
After the repair, the small truck sped toward the small county town in the night.
Ah Fu asked,"What does this Village Chief Cui manage in the village?"”
Ah Cang said,"I don't know the specifics. He often comes to my house to talk to my father about things."”
The driver's uncle continued,"This Village Chief Cui has been in our village for more than three years. He was in charge of agricultural infrastructure, and now he was in charge of investment promotion. Village Chief Cui had been a soldier before and was a military officer who had been transferred to civilian work. He had worked in several towns and villages before. He heard that they were doing very well. He was the one who requested to come to our village.
Ah Fu said,"Nowadays, there are not many officials who are willing to do practical things!”
The driver's uncle said,"Village Chief Cui is a good cadre who does practical things." After he came to our village, he did a lot of good things. The road under our feet was widened after he came. There was also the big stone bridge in Sanli ditch, which was also built by Village Head Cui. It was only because he strongly opposed the forced merger of the village that he changed to moving voluntarily. The commoners were far away from the land. There was no other income, so what was he going to live in?
Ah Fu said," Yes, our current economic conditions are too poor. It's also difficult to live in a building!”
The driver's uncle said,"Who says so! He couldn't possibly build a small stove in the corridor to burn firewood and boil water to cook, right? At that time, it was also a trend. The village wanted the village leaders to take the lead in moving. Isn't your uncle the secretary? You have to take the lead. They had no choice but to mobilize a few families with better conditions to move together. Not many families moved out of the village, and there were even fewer in other villages. You've seen the building we live in. The contractor cut corners. It became a dilapidated house after a few days, and many residents owed money. The heating and gas were all running, but how many families could afford it. He still owed them utility bills. The commoners had no food in their stomachs, so they couldn't even poop!”
Ah Fu listened to the driver's uncle's words. He thought to himself, Wasn't this just a word? Poor. The commoners did not have money.
Big Sis Jin called Ah Fu again to ask,"Ah Fu, where are your goods? Someone is waiting for the goods."
Ah Fu said,"Big Sister Jin, we're on our way." I'll be there soon. There's something wrong with the car. I'll be there in a while.”
Big Sister Jin said,"Alright, those who want the goods are waiting anxiously. Hurry up."”
The small truck drove into the farmer's market. Big Sis Jin and a few others were waiting there. There was also a large truck parked at the side. She saw Ah Fu's car drive in and stop. Someone carried out a large scale, and a person who looked like a boss held a strong flashlight. He checked the goods that Ah Fu and the others had unloaded one by one.
Ah Fu pulled Big Sister Jin aside and whispered to her,"Big Sister Jin, the car had a flat tire on the way. He almost fell into a ditch! Half of the goods were thrown down and squeezed. Big Sister Jin, take a look. You've spent so much effort to help send it out!”
Big Sister Jin said,"Ah Fu, no one wants to encounter a natural disaster. There was nothing he could do if he met anyone. Big Sister will help you talk about it."
Big Sister Jin introduced him to Ah Fu,"Ah Fu, this is Boss Ma." Boss Ma, this is Boss Zhou."
Boss Ma shook hands with Ah Fu and said,"Alright, alright, Boss Zhou." Your goods are not bad. Why is more than half of it squeezed? No one wanted squeezed goods! It would rot in two days.”
Boss Ma was a shrewd businessman. The person who shouted at him moved half of the good goods he had chosen to the scale to weigh them. Ah Fu saw that this was not going to work, so she pulled on Big Sister Jin's sleeve. Ah Fu didn't know how to negotiate with them, so he could only rely on Big Sister Jin to deal with them.
Big Sis Jin knew what was going on and said to Boss Ma,"Boss Ma, pick the rest of the goods and give me a price. I've seen the goods too. They won't rot in three days. This was Boss Zhou's first time here to sell goods. He had encountered some bad luck. In the future, he would be the biggest supplier here. What do you think, Boss Ma? If we help each other, the cooperation will be long, right? We're old friends. You're helping me. Think about it.”
Boss Ma thought for a while and said,"Sister Jin, I'll give you face." We're all doing business. It's not wrong to put profit first. I can only offer 20%. Alright, I'll pull him away. No, forget it. Big Sister Jin, what do you think?”
Big Sister Jin said,"Boss Ma, can you add some more?" Your price is too low."
Boss Ma said,"Big Sister Jin, we are all old people in the industry. I want to sell such goods immediately. It was already good enough that he didn't lose or earn anything. If it was delayed for two days, no one would want to lose money.”
Big Sister Jin said,"Alright, big sister will accept your favor." Just follow the price Boss Ma said and take them all away.”
Ah Fu was already very satisfied that all the goods could be sold. He didn't know the rules of the industry, so he had to rely on Big Sister Jin. Boss Ma loaded some money and said that the vehicles were less busy at night. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he got into the car and left.
Ah Fu asked Ah Man, Ah Cang, and the others to rest in the car first. Ah Fu went to settle accounts with Big Sister Jin. Big Sis Jin would take a percentage based on the total transaction amount. How much can you get?
After settling the accounts, Big Sister Jin said,"Brother Fu, you're going to pay a big price this time." Encountering such a situation, there was nothing they could do. Don't be discouraged. Don't get down and not get up. You can earn it back slowly."
Ah Fu said,"Big Sister Jin, it's all thanks to you for your help this time." I'll be fine. I still have a lot of goods at home. I will continue to work and make up for my losses. If I lie down and don't work, I will really lose money.”
Big Sister Jin said,"Very good. Big Sister sees that you're a person who can accomplish things." Be more careful in the future. This business has just started. Losing a little is not a big deal. You can definitely make up for it.”
Ah Fu said,"Thank you for your help, Big Sister Jin. We rushed back overnight." There are still a few groups of people at home who receive the goods. I will continue to pull the goods over.”
Big Sister Jin sincerely helped Ah Fu. Ah Fu was grateful to Big Sister Jin from the bottom of her heart. From then on, he had also planted a sentimental seed, waiting for the nourishment of the sun and rain to take root and sprout.
Ah Fu got off on the wrong foot. He lost a lot of money on the first carriage. Ah Fu calculated in her heart that she could not let others know about the loss. Ah Fu's mind was quickly turning on the abacus. If not for the accident, he would have earned quite a bit.
Ah Xiang sent Ah Fu and the others on their way to the city, but she couldn't sleep at home. Ah Fu was not at home, so Little Lian and Ah Xiang slept in the same bed. When Little Lian woke up, she saw that her cousin-in-law's eyes were still wide open, and she was holding her phone.
"Sister Ah Xiang, why aren't you sleeping? Worried about cousin and the rest? You can make a call and ask."
Ah Xiang dialed Ah Fu's phone and asked,""Ah Fu, how are you guys? Have you sold the goods?"
Ah Fu replied,"Ah Xiang, we're fine. We sold all the goods." We'll be home by daybreak. Prepare food for us.”
When they heard that Ah Fu and the others were heading back, Ah Xiang and Little Lian were very happy.
Little Lian said,"Sister Ah Xiang, what are we going to cook for Cousin and the others? Why don't we make dumplings for Cousin and the others to eat?"”
Ah Xiang said,"Alright, then let's get up and do it."”
Ah Xiang and Little Lian got up to make fillings and dough to make dumplings. When the old lady heard this, she also got up to help make dumplings. At dawn, Ah Fu and the others returned. Ah Xiang and Xiao Lian served them steaming hot and fragrant dumplings. Everyone was really hungry. Ah Man and Ah Cang were eating outside the door with a big bowl in their hands.
After eating and drinking their fill, Ah Fu said," Let everyone sleep for two hours. We still have to continue working. Continue to deliver goods to the city."
After sending everyone to bed, Ah Fu returned to the room to sort out the accounts. He had lost more than 5,000 yuan on this trip. Ah Fu calculated that he would have to send more than ten carts of goods to make up for the money.
Ah Xiang pushed the door open and said,"Ah Fu, you should sleep for a while. You can't stay up like this." Your eyes are red."
Ah Xiang spread the blanket and pulled Ah Fu to the bed to lie down. She then tidied up the accounts. He went out gently and closed the door to the receiving point to work.
The first few days were very busy, but the goods were more evenly distributed. There were still quite a few people who came to deliver goods. Ah Fu was busy receiving goods. Village Chief Cui and his uncle had arrived.
The uncle became fierce when he saw her and scolded Ah Fu."Ah Fu, you little brat. Such a big thing happened. You didn't let Ah Cang tell me, if Lao Cui didn't come, you would have kept it from me. Uncle's heart aches for you guys."
Ah Fu handed over the work to Ah Xiang and ran over to welcome the township head. Village Chief Cui said,"Old Zhou, these kids are afraid that you'll worry." I like young people who can resist. Danger, danger. There wasn't anything there. It was normal to encounter difficulties. Anyone can do anything without difficulty."
Ah Fu held the township head's hand and said,"Thank you, township head." Please have a drink with the township head and uncle.”
In an abandoned house by the roadside. A broken table and two long stools. Ah Fu invited the township head and uncle into the house and sat down. He poured two bowls of water from a thermos. He pulled over a fruit basket and sat down.
"Ah Fu, it's a lot more difficult in the beginning," said Village Chief Cui. You can't be scared out of your wits when you encounter setbacks! Tell me about your difficulties. If you don't tell me, I don't know how to help you. I'm embarrassed to say this, but you're the one who's at a disadvantage.”
Uncle also said,"Ah Fu, the township head is very concerned about you. Old Cui is also a practical person. If you have any difficulties, just say it.”
Ah Fu said,"Village Chief Cui, I won't stand on ceremony then."”
Village Chief Cui said," Who asked you to be so polite? I'm here to hear the truth. Just say it, just say it."”
Ah Fu said,"Village Chief Cui, our biggest problem right now is transportation. We don't have the right to decide on our car! It was just the beginning, and the big head was still behind. And our packaging. It was still a striped basket and a woven bag. You can't tell that something good is good."
Hearing Ah Fu's words, Village Chief Cui said,"Good, Ah Fu, these two points are on point." When I was in Shangshui Village, the agricultural products there were all packed in boxes. The designs were varied, novel, and beautiful. Some agricultural products had even applied for patents. The young man's train of thought was right. As for the transportation, I'll transfer Old Liu's car to you first. However, you have to fill up the gasoline yourselves!”
Ah Fu said,"Thank you, township head. That's only natural." We'll be very grateful if you give us the car."
"Ah Fu, if you're nervous, you can try riding a tricycle. As for the packaging, it couldn't be solved in a short time. You plan it first. I can help you get in touch with them. However, you also have to calculate the cost and the difficulty of sales. I'll go back and find some more information for you to reference. Ah Fu, you must take care of your health and take care of Xio! Only by resting well and having a good body can we fight a tough battle. Work hard."
Village Chief Cui and his uncle left. Ah Fu changed her train of thought because she was too anxious at first. Now that he had two cars, it was basically enough. He could not take the risk of running at night again. Ah Fu was afraid that there would be another accident, so he had better play it safe. Nothing could be rushed. Things would change if they were anxious!
