A few years ago, these pear trees were public property, so no one dared to have any thoughts. Now that they were subcontracted to households, some people wanted to cut down the pear trees to grow food. The pears were not worth much, but the food could at least fill their stomachs.
Just as Cai Anan was thinking about it, Xue Guibao brought her over.
When the host heard that someone wanted the pears on the ground, he was very happy.
"How much?" The main family was most concerned about money.
"The pears on the ground aren't sweet, and they don't look good. I'll pay five cents for each tree, but I'll pick up any pears on the ground.”
"Only five cents." Someone shook his head.
"Five points less?" Xue Guibao snapped. Not even five cents!"
"Uncle, don't be angry. Since he doesn't want to sell it, I won't buy it.”"Mom, let's go." Cai Anan looked at Xue Guixiang.”
The man was anxious. He only wanted to raise the price a little. He wasn't really not selling! These pears would rot in the fields even if they were not sold. It was better to see some money.
"Forget it, I'll give it all to you! But let's make it clear first, I want to see the money immediately!”The man pretended to be unwilling. "Alright, Uncle. How many pear trees do you have in total? I'll pay you now.”
"A total of ten!"
Five cents for one, and fifty cents for ten. Lin Qingqing gave him fifty cents without hesitation.
This person was the most difficult to deal with among these people. When others saw that he had accepted the money, they also sold the pears at the same price.
He bought a total of 80 pears and spent four yuan.
These 80 pear trees could produce at least 800 pears. Although the cost was higher than the last time at Li Village, the pears were good, so the price was not a loss.
After picking up 40 pears, the basket was full. Cai Anan asked Xue Guixiang to pick up the remaining 40 pears and watch them from here. She and Zhou Jin had to hurry to the county town to sell pears.
They left the house at seven in the morning. It was already past eleven when they arrived at the cotton processing plant after collecting the pears and taking into account the delay on the road. Cai Anan asked Zhou Jin to guard the car at the door while she went inside to look for Old Li.
Old Li was about to get off work when he saw Cai Anan, so he went back to his office.
After everyone else in the office had left, Cai Anan took out two boxes from her pocket.""Brother Li, I'm not familiar with the city. I'll need your help in the future.”
She bought four boxes of cigarettes and only gave Xue Guibao two boxes. These two boxes were for Li Xiang.
Without further ado, Old Li asked Cai Anan to pull the pear in and weigh it in front of her.
Yesterday, they had agreed to pay 20 cents per catty. The four baskets of pears totaled 103 catties. After rounding off the numbers, they would sell them for 20 yuan this time.
"The finance department is off work now. Since you still have to send a car in the afternoon, why don't you pay it together in the afternoon?”
"Alright, with Brother Li around, I have nothing to worry about.”Cai Anan agreed immediately.
Li Xiang wanted to laugh. This person really knew how to get close to him. He kept calling him Brother Li. Those who didn't know better would really think that he was his relative.
After leaving the cotton processing plant, Cai Anan's stomach began to growl. She had eaten nothing in the morning and had been running around for the whole morning. How could she not be hungry?
However, it was not easy to find a snack bar or something. Fortunately, the cotton processing plant had boosted the economy of this area. There were a few small private restaurants nearby.
Cai Anan brought Zhou Jin to a mutton soup shop. It was lunchtime, and the shop was full of customers. Most of them were employees of the cotton processing plant.
The prices were written on the small blackboard. The big bowl of mutton soup was 30 cents, the small bowl was 20 cents, and the sesame seed cake was 10 cents. Only the employees with wages were willing to come here to eat.
Cai Anan ordered two large bowls of mutton soup and four large shaobings. When the boss brought the soup and shaobings, she finally felt the good quality and cheap price of the 1980s.
