The Beginning of Siheyuan: The Pig Killer of Qinjia Village

Liang Ladi is here.

At 5:30 in the afternoon, the workers in the machine repair factory got off work.

When I went out and saw a tricycle selling cold noodles, the people who had clamored to buy cold noodles yesterday quickly gathered around it.

Ding Yan didn't expect it to be so simple, she didn't even need it!

He immediately started working with Liang Ladi.

With the free tasting yesterday, the workers spread the word of mouth, and the publicity was very effective. All the workers in the factory knew about the snack of Liangpi. Those who had eaten it wanted to eat it again, and those who had not eaten it wanted to try it. As a result, the Liangpi was sold very well, and the mother and daughter wished they had two more hands.

It sold out in just half an hour.

Most people take their lunch boxes home to eat, and very few eat on the spot. The one hundred sets of bowls and chopsticks prepared are rarely used.

There are still many people who didn’t buy it and complained:

"Why is that all? Why don't you do more?"

That’s right! I queued for a long time, but when I got to the end of the line, they said it was sold out. ”

A worker who tasted the food yesterday stood up to help. "Don't complain, we told you yesterday that a plate of cold noodles requires more than half a pound of noodles! The process is also complicated. It used to be available only in the palace. It's not easy."

Liang Ladi also explained at the right time. "Comrades, it's not that my mother and I don't want to do more. The process of making cold noodles is complicated. My mother and I work non-stop all day long, and we can only make 100 sheets at most."

With someone helping to speak up and Liang Ladi's explanation, the workers calmed down and said they understood.

Liang Ladi could only comfort the workers in the machine repair factory who didn't get to eat. "If you want to eat, come early tomorrow, first come first served..."

I secretly admire Chang Wei in my heart. It turns out that supply exceeding demand is the long-term solution. My man is really amazing.

Thinking of this, her pretty face turned red. He seemed to be good at everything...

After closing the stall, Ding Yan was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. Making cold noodles at home didn't take long, mainly because of the time it took for the batter to settle. After the noodles were done, it took the mother and daughter less than an hour to come out, and after deducting the cost, they made more than ten yuan.

Knowing it in advance is one thing, but when I actually made ten dollars, the excitement and thrill in my heart was no less.

……

This is Chang Wei.

He drove back to Qinjia Village and dropped Qin Huairu off at the door of her home.

After returning home, Chang Wei called the Ding brothers and Qin Huaifeng to inquire about the situation of collecting pigs.

Ding Wu touched his head and said, "Brother Wei, fewer people delivered pigs today. Only eleven pigs were delivered in one day, and they were not very big."

Chang Wei was silent for a moment, then made a decision. "It doesn't matter how big or small it is. I'm going to raise the price in a few days. The price of meat has gone up in the market now, so we'll raise the price of the pigs we buy from the surrounding villages to 70% of the standard."

The day before yesterday, I collected thirteen heads, yesterday I collected fifteen heads, and today I collected only eleven heads. At this rate, I will soon run out of stock to sell, but I have already made a plan.

I sold sixteen pigs in two days, and now I have twenty-two fat pigs. Since they are not big, I will take the opportunity to raise them in the space farm for a few days. Anyway, they are empty now.

Ding Cheng said with some worry. "Brother Wei, if the price suddenly goes up, will those people think that we can't get the pigs, so they raise the price? Will they keep the pigs and not sell them, thinking that the price will go up again?"

Chang Wei nodded approvingly. Ding Cheng, this boy, rarely used his brain. He smiled faintly and said directly, "It is normal to have the mentality of selling pigs as rare goods. I will talk to the village heads at the right time. Since this is possible, let's do it step by step. Let's increase the price by two yuan per load first, and hold on until I get married."

Ding Wu asked in surprise. "Brother Wei, isn't this price too high? And if you sell it at 70% of the price later, you will make less money!"

The average price of pork in Xidan Market is about 50 cents now, and the highest price of 70% live pigs is 35 yuan per load. Chang Wei raised the price to 29 yuan per load at one time, plus the one yuan for delivery, a pig can be sold for an extra five yuan. This price is definitely higher than the price of buying pigs in the countryside. If the news spreads, it is expected that the Ding brothers will be busy in the next few days.

Others might not make money after deducting their own costs if they offered this price, but Chang Wei would definitely make a lot of money. What he wanted was cover, and the main source of income was the pigs in the space farm.

Chang Wei smiled and waved his hand casually. "Awu, you don't know, twenty-seven yuan a load was the price I paid when pork was sold for 42 cents. Now pork in the city is 50 cents. So if I make money, I have to let the villagers take more."

Then he gave Qin Huaifeng instructions. "Huaifeng, you will ride your bike to each village to find the village chiefs tomorrow morning and ask them to help pass on the message. Huaifeng, remember to bring some of the cigarettes in my room so that people who help you can't go empty-handed. Each person will be given two packs of Daqianmen and two pounds of pork."

You must not forget the ways of the world, otherwise why would others help you?

Qin Huaifeng nodded. "I understand, brother-in-law."

Thinking of the piglets, Chang Wei asked casually, "Awu, have you asked about the piglets?"

Ding Wu: "Brother Wei, I've already asked. But because we've collected a lot of fat pigs recently, the price of piglets is a bit higher now. I've made an appointment with a few villagers to deliver the piglets to me tomorrow, a total of more than 50 piglets."

Chang Wei nodded slightly. "Then I'll send a truckload of fat pigs to the butcher shop later, and take another truckload away in the morning. Otherwise, if we add the fat pigs to the collection tomorrow, the existing pig pens won't be able to accommodate them all."

He just took the opportunity to throw some small fat pigs into the space farm. Once the news of price increase comes out tomorrow, more people will probably sell pigs in the future.

Fortunately, he had enough money to use, and he still had about 12,000 yuan. He reserved 1,000 yuan for expanding the pig pen, and prepared 3,000 yuan to lend to the villagers in Qinjia Village who didn't have enough money to raise pigs. The remaining 8,000 yuan was enough to buy pigs and buy food. (Lou Zhenhua's 12,000 yuan plus Chang Wei's own savings of about 1,000 yuan, plus the 6,500 yuan earned by the shop that day and the income from the past few days, the total was about 20,000 yuan. Excluding the more than 2,000 yuan spent on shopping, 4,000 yuan for two houses, 500 yuan prepaid for expanding the pig pen and 1,000 yuan unpaid, and some daily expenses.)

night!

After the meal, Chang Wei asked the Ding brothers to kill a pig. There was no fresh meat at home, so Qin Huaifeng would go to each village to inform the village chiefs the next morning and ask for pork as a favor.

He drove a small truck carrying twelve pigs out of the village, intending to take a drive outside the village, find an empty area, collect the pigs into the space farm, and then come back.

……

This side of the courtyard.

Jia Zhang has already bought the food and some ingredients for the wedding, and is waiting to use them at Jia Dongxu's wedding banquet tomorrow night.

After finishing her meal, she sat at the door, already thinking about how to make money by accepting the gifts, since she had prepared fish and meat for the table.

Each family can only give a gift of 30 or 50 cents, so if you want to avoid losses, you can only ask each family to pay one person. In this way, Zhang Xiaoyu's family can also be considered as her own family, and they must have brought their families with them. The money for the banquet can be almost the same after both sides have divided it.

back room,

Jia Dongxu, who is both inexperienced and playful, gets impatient and starts to make trouble again, while Zhang Xiaoyu cooperates absent-mindedly. No one would be interested in such a dull and indifferent feeling every day.

But she really liked Jia Dongxu, and there was more to life than just that. So she didn't think much about it, thinking that as long as she could give birth to a child, she would be known as a hen that couldn't lay eggs...
