Chapter 163
Xu Zhixia didn't go very far when she met a middle-aged woman who came out of the cafeteria.

The woman smiled at Xu Zhixia from afar, walked up to her and asked, "Mr. Xu, I saw your Han Feng just now. Why are you here to cook dinner in person?"

Xu Zhixia turned her head and pointed at the tractor, "Sister Liu, I want to buy some charcoal. Isn't there no scale here? I'll borrow the scale from the cafeteria."

Sister Liu hurriedly asked, "Is this charcoal good? How much is it per catty?"

"Well, it's not expensive, five cents a catty." Xu Zhixia went to the cafeteria while talking.

Sister Liu came over to look at the unpacked sack, "Five cents a catty? Can it be cheaper if I buy more?"

Su Qian said: "How much do you buy, eldest sister?"

If the car is rounded up, it can be cheaper and it will be sold as a wholesale.

Sister Liu said: "Less say you have to buy two hundred catties."

There are many people in her family, and her mother-in-law's family has to use it. Two hundred catties may not be enough.

Susie smiled and said, "Sister, we can help you carry it up the stairs, but the price is already the lowest in the market, it really cannot be less."

Sister Liu calculated the account in her heart, "Okay, I'll go back and get the money."

At this time, it was the peak period for the canteen to sell breakfast, and there were people coming and going at the entrance of the canteen, and many people came to ask after a while.

The men left after asking the price, and the women wanted to negotiate the price as soon as they came up. Susie always said that she was a lot of money.

Not long after, I saw Xu Zhixia and a middle-aged man coming out of the cafeteria.

The man was pushing a weighing scale, and Zhu Zhicheng hurried over to take it over.

The scale was pushed over, and Susie looked at it. This scale was similar to the one in their production team.

The whole scale is made of iron, with four wheels at the bottom and an iron plate on top of the wheels, on which things are placed on the iron plate when weighing.

Xu Zhixia came over, looked into the tractor bed, and pointed to a bag, "Just this bag, what's the weight?"

Yuan Gang lifted the sack to the scale, and Zhu Zhicheng added it with the weight, and moved the iron lump on the scale a few times, "110 nine catties."

Susie watched carefully from the side, and probably understood the usage of the scale.

Xu Zhixia nodded, "Okay, someone will go upstairs with me to get the money."

Qiao Mu picked up the bag and followed Xu Zhixia to the dormitory building.

After walking a few steps, I ran into Sister Liu who was spinning down again.

Sister Liu said, "You bought it? How much is this bag?"

Xu Zhixia said: "My bag weighs almost 120 catties, so it probably weighs about the same."

"Then I have to buy two bags." Sister Liu said that the tractor came in a hurry.

Zhu Zhicheng weighed two bags of charcoal for Sister Liu, totaling 230 kilograms.

Sister Liu gave 12 yuan, and Su Qian gave her [-] cents.

She borrowed all the change from Tian Xiaohui and Zhao Tingting yesterday, and gave her all the change from Yuan Gang, Zhu Zhicheng, Qiaomu and the others in the morning, and kept it for change.

Sister Liu hadn't left here yet, and someone came over to buy charcoal.

Yuan Gang helped Sister Liu carry the charcoal away, Su Qian came to look at the scale, and Zhu Zhicheng moved bags of charcoal down.

There are more and more people around who want to buy charcoal, and a few people are busy back and forth like a spinning top.

Fortunately, not everyone has to deliver the goods to their door. Some men bought charcoal, put it on their shoulders and left.

Most of them were bought in one bag, and every time Susie received a sum of money, she would record the number in a small book.

In just a short while, dozens of bags of charcoal were sold out.

After breakfast, Xu Zhixia packed up and pushed the bicycle over. Seeing that the tractor was empty, "Oh, I said I would take you to school. Last time I told our school teachers, they all said they wanted to buy it."

"It's gone now, and I can't explain it to them."

Su Qian looked at Qiao Mu, Qiao Mu understood what she meant, and said to Xu Zhixia, "There is still charcoal in the kiln, but it will take about ten days."

Xu Zhixia parked the car, "That's fine, then I'll tell them, next time you come, go directly to our school."

She handed a cloth bag in her hand to Susie, "I have already found all the textbooks you want. It's just that I am busy during this time. The school will conduct political studies on weekends, so I don't have time to go back."

Su Qian felt that the bag in her hand was heavy, and Xu Zhixia said again: "The cotton shoes are ready, and they are also inside. I usually wear them at home."

Susie nodded, "Thank you, Auntie."

Xu Zhixia smiled: "Thank you, isn't this what it should be?"

"By the way, I have to return this scale to them."

Zhu Zhicheng hurriedly said, "I'll come and I'll come, you just say where to put it."

Xu Zhixia took Zhu Zhicheng to the cafeteria, while Su Qian squatted on the ground with a small book to settle accounts.

After a while, Xu Zhixia and Zhu Zhicheng came out.

Susie got up and said, "Auntie, we're going back now."

Xu Zhixia nodded, looked at her watch, "Okay, I won't keep you anymore, I have to go to work too."

"After a while, our school will be on holiday. Then, you can come to stay at home for a while."

Su Qian agreed, and Xu Zhixia got on her bicycle and left.

Susie was also about to get in the car, but Qiao Mu suddenly reached out to stop her, "Wait, I'll borrow a broom to sweep."

Only then did Susie notice a thick layer of black ash in the car body.

Qiao Mu and Zhu Zhicheng went to the cafeteria and quickly borrowed a broom and dustpan to clean up the truck.

Qiao Mu got a quick rag again, and wiped the car body again and again, he didn't stop until he didn't see a speck of black ash.

He himself had a lot of dust on his face and body, but he didn't care, he patted it a few times, and got into the car.

Qiao Mu first drove the car to the gas station, filled up the car with a can of oil, and then went to the grocery store to buy a few bundles of sacks before turning back.

On the way back, everyone was in a good mood, and Yuan Gang chatted and laughed with Zhu Zhicheng all the way.

At the entrance of the village, Su Xi and the others got out of the car, and Qiao Mu drove the tractor to park by himself.

When Qiao Mu came back, Susie went to their room. She took out a large amount of change from her pocket and returned the change she had borrowed to them.

Then put the small book on the table, "A total of 370 eight catties of charcoal, sold for 210, eight yuan and nine cents."

Susie counted the money and put it on the table, "Who counts the money."

Zhu Zhicheng waved his hand, "No need to order, can we still not trust you?"

Susie kept her grandma's education in mind, "That won't work, my brothers will settle accounts clearly, and money must be counted face to face."

Yuan Gang came over, "I'll count."

He counted it carefully, "The amount of money is correct."

Susie tore off the paper recorded in the small book, "Okay, the money and accounts are handed over to you, and I don't care how you divide them."

As she spoke, she picked up the notebook and went out, Zhu Zhicheng called her to stop, "Susie, don't leave, you have also contributed, so you should get a share too."

Susie smiled and said, "I didn't do anything, I just ran with you and helped a little."

"We eat in the same pot every day. It's such a trivial matter." She said and went out, closing the door behind her.
