Stepmother Reborn: Dad, my mom hasn't hit me for three days

The next morning, Zhang Xiuhua borrowed a donkey cart from the team leader and went to the county town.

The team leader was surprised to learn that her vermicelli was actually sold in the county town, and said, "Your vermicelli workshop is getting better and better."

Zhang Xiuhua waved her hand modestly, "Captain, we found three companies and they only wanted 100 kilograms. And this is only one month's supply. I don't know if there will be any next month."

The captain told her not to be greedy, "You can't chew too much."

Song Lianhua used Zhoujia Village as an example, "You don't know yet, right? Something went wrong with the tofu in Zhoujia Village."

Zhang Xiuhua really didn't know about this. She had been busy with work in the fields recently and hadn't been to town. She hadn't heard about this either. "How could this happen?"

Song Lianhua slapped her thigh, "Why else? Some time ago, we were too busy in the fields, and Zhoujia Village was also busy. The members of their tofu shop wanted to earn a job and make tofu at the same time. They sent the tofu to the commune two hours later than usual, so the tofu became sour. Isn't this a problem?"

The weather in September is still very hot, and especially since there are no refrigerators or freezers at this time, the shelf life of tofu is only one day.

"A patient ate sour tofu and had vomiting and diarrhea, so he went to the supply and marketing cooperative and made a scene. The order from Zhoujia Village also fell through." Song Lianhua looked at her eagerly, "Are you still making tofu? If you fight for it, maybe you can get the order."

Zhang Xiuhua laughed it off. "Making tofu doesn't make money, and the risk is so high. Let's just forget it, right?!"

She was sincere. Making tofu in summer was not cost-effective and would damage her reputation. She planned to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to sell tofu after October. Currently, she mainly sold to several villages around. She mainly wanted to earn the soybeans from the villagers.

After borrowing a donkey from the team leader, Zhang Xiuhua first went to the educated youth site.

Find Zhou Pandi and Li Xiaoying, and ask them to go to the county town with her to promote the products to fans.

Zhou Pandi and Li Xiaoying naturally had no objections.

Zhang Xiuhua discussed the gift-giving with Zhou Pandi again. Zhou Pandi asked her not to give too expensive gifts at the beginning, so as to avoid the price increasing in the future and people would be greedy. Zhang Xiuhua agreed.

The next morning, Zhang Xiuhua and two other people rode on Hong Bing's donkey into the county town.

There were not many cars at that time and the city was not crowded. Hong Bing parked the donkey directly on the side of the road, and Zhang Xiuhua and the other two moved the fans in.

He also secretly gave the director a pound of snacks while no one else was paying attention.

The things are not expensive, but she promised that as long as the quantity ordered is large, there will be more benefits in the future.

The director nodded with satisfaction.

After delivering the products to three families in a row, Zhang Xiuhua and the other two separated and went to other supply and marketing cooperatives to sell their products. Hong Bing accompanied the other three as they searched street by street.

It was almost noon, and Zhang Xiuhua invited the Red Soldiers to have lunch at a nearby state-owned restaurant.

The donkey was tied to the electric pole at the door, and had to come out to take a look from time to time.

In order to thank Hong Bing, I ordered a meat dish and two stir-fried dishes.

The portions of dishes here are very large, but the country people are used to doing physical work and have big appetites, so Hongbing can eat three or four steamed buns by himself.

After eating and drinking, Hong Bing felt a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry for costing you so much money."

"It's okay. You've been running around with us for a whole day, and we delayed your time in earning work points. We are the ones who feel embarrassed." Zhang Xiuhua asked him if he had eaten enough.

Hong Bing said hurriedly, "I'm full."

Perhaps because he was tempted by the favor, Hong Bing insisted on staying with the three people until five in the afternoon before going back.

The three of them shared the results. They went to eight supply and marketing cooperatives in total today. The one with the largest amount ordered 60 kilograms, and the one with the smallest amount ordered 20 kilograms.

"Have you finished it?" Hong Bing was a little confused.

"It's done. The sweet potatoes will be harvested soon, and we have time to make them." With so many orders, Zhang Xiuhua definitely couldn't go to work. When she returned to the team, she asked the team leader for leave.

If they had asked for leave during the autumn harvest season in the past, the team leader would have definitely scolded them. But they were busy with work.

If the fans can really make money, they can expand production and set up a factory, and the villagers can also have a side job. It will also be a great thing for the village. At least they don't have to worry about the remaining money from the hand tractor.

Zhang Xiuhua had no idea that the team leader was thinking about opening a vermicelli factory.

She asked Zhou Pandyi and Li Xiaoying to go home to discuss the next expansion of product categories.

"We can make potato flour. Potatoes are easy to sprout, not easy to store, and have a high yield. Having one more thing will give everyone more choices."

The three of them decided to give it a try first.

Then the villagers were busy harvesting crops, and the three were busy making vermicelli. When the children had their farming holidays, they would go to the team to do some light work, such as picking beans, beating beans, and picking soybeans, peanuts, corn, sweet potatoes, etc. on the farm.

In a blink of an eye, Li Jianxin came back with An Rou.

An Rou had a caesarean section and was weak. Miao Xiaohua was busy earning work points, so naturally she had no time to take care of her after she had given birth. Li Jianxin had to take care of two children, take care of the mother after she had given birth, and work in the fields to earn work points.

Well, he didn't go to the field, because he was a scorekeeper. But he was miserable.

Zhang Xiuhua and the other two could hear Li Jianxin complaining to everyone they met while they were fans at home, making it difficult for the villagers to tell whether he was showing off or really complaining.

Fortunately, busy life always passes by very quickly. An Rou is out of confinement after giving birth. After she gets out of bed, she can help take care of the two children.

Li Jianxin bought a second-hand cart from the county town, and An Rou would push the two children out for a stroll whenever she had time.

An Rou likes to come to Zhang Xiuhua's house. Firstly, she had been counselled by her before, and secondly, there are people to chat with here so she is not lonely.

"Didn't your dad say he would come to see you? Why didn't he come?" Zhang Xiuhua was a little curious.

An Rou sighed, "No. I heard he's been very busy recently, and his boss wouldn't approve my leave. But he sent us some tickets. The two kids are drinking milk powder now. It's just too little, and they've almost finished the two cans I bought."

Children drink milk very quickly, especially since she has two children, which doubles the consumption.

No wonder Li Jianxin was worried. An Rou didn't want to stay at home all the time. She didn't like doing housework, so she wanted to earn more money. It was Li Jianxin's turn to stay at home.

She asked Zhang Xiuhua if she could help her with sales.

"Li Jianxin sells in several nearby villages. I can't do that. I don't know the way. I want to go to the county town. After all, I'm an educated youth, so I'm not a problem with talking." An Rou thought about it carefully. She didn't have any other advantages, but she had a good vision. Maybe she could find a market for them.

Zhang Xiuhua told her about how she had gone to the county town to see her and went to the supply and marketing cooperative to sell her products.

An Rou was not disappointed. "You have been to the supply and marketing cooperative, but you must not have been to any major factories. We have many factories in our county, including steel mills, chemical plants, machinery plants, and power plants."

Every time she mentioned something, Zhang Xiuhua's eyes lit up, because these were all big factories.

"Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. What do you think about us making a gift box?"

In her previous life, she had seen many promotional methods used by businesses. She certainly couldn't get those fancy gift boxes. But they could weave a basket in the countryside, dye it with colorful colors, make it festive, and put all kinds of farm products on it. Wouldn't that increase sales?

Oh, and I can also help you sell some local specialties like salted duck eggs.

This idea was unanimously agreed upon by everyone, "Great! These big companies have very good benefits. If there is a gift box like this, they will definitely be happy to order it."
