Qiong Yin lingers

Chapter 14 Cross the river and demolish the bridge
After Zhang Shennian went to Yangpu, the business of local goods entering the city was handed over to the younger generation of the troupe, and Huang Simi had another burden of collecting local goods.

When Li Dongming, Huang Donghua and Lin Jiaojiao first arrived in Sanya, they were very obedient.

Although Zhang Shennian went to Yangpu, they all followed his previous deployment and set up local goods stalls in the first market and the third market.

After Zhang Shennian's exploration in the early stage, he has summed up the differences of several "main battlefields" in Sanya.

There are many high-end residential areas around the third market, and most of the housewives who come to buy are looking for refinement and not much; so he put the best muskmelon, powder potato, and high-quality seafood from the village in the third market, and the price went up. Profits do not go down the scale.

The surrounding area of ​​the first market is full of villages from other places. The housewives here are more cost-effective, and they all like high quality and low price. Therefore, Zhang Shennian puts all the cheap seafood and local products here, and buys them every day. Shipped from the village to ensure sufficient quantity.

Another business growth point is in the wholesale market. As the name suggests, wholesale is done here. Every day, after waiting for the car to pick up the goods, they will be transferred to the wholesale market. Solved the terminal problem of agricultural and sideline products of villagers in Erxian Village.

According to their personalities, Zhang Shennian arranged Huang Donghua, who had a calm personality, in the third market, and Li Dongming and Lin Jiaojiao, who were cheerful and relaxed, stayed in the first market.

At the beginning, the three of them were full of energy. Although they got up early and worked late every day, they couldn't help but want to laugh out loud when they counted the money in their pockets when closing the stall.

Thinking about the salary as high as 500 per month, the three of them returned to the oil paper house every night, humming Qiong opera ditties happily.

Lin Jiaojiao is still at the dinner table from time to time, thanking the troupe: "Thanks to Brother Nian and Sister Mei, I have grown up so much, and it is the first time I have seen so much money! In the future, I will save money and go home to build it for my parents." A big tile-roofed house for them to show off in Erxian Village every day."

Until one day, Li Dongming couldn't help but snorted coldly, and poured cold water on her: "With the salary of 500 yuan, do you want to build a building? Just dream! Let me tell you, we get up early and work late every day, so why do we only spend so much money?" A small change? Isn’t our regiment leader Yang Bailao who looks like a real person?”

As soon as these words came out, the table became as quiet as a chicken in an instant.

Lin Jiaojiao paused, and the pork belly on the chopsticks fell to the ground with a thud, and said in a muttered voice, "You can't say that! If it weren't for the head of the team, we are still on tour in ten miles and eight villages. Not to mention the profits of local goods entering the city. It’s not just the selling price minus the buying price, there are also transportation costs, melon and fruit loss, booth rent, etc. Although we earn less, we are not responsible for the profit and loss, which is already very good.”

Li Dongming snorted coldly, and stared at her: "I think you are singing and acting silly every day? We have been doing this for more than half a year, which time did you lose money? Besides, Zhang Shennian is now traveling in Yangpu to enjoy the mountains and play in the water, going out to sea crazy Fishing for gold, has he thought about us? The current Sanya local goods, without us, this business will be lost! Today I put the talk here, I want to do it alone! As for you, you can do it yourself!"

Lin Jiaojiao looked left and right hesitantly, put down her chopsticks and wiped her hands on her legs: "Why don't we talk to the team leader first? Maybe we can start with a partnership first?"

From Lin Jiaojiao's point of view, they can earn more without having to share high risks through the partnership system, which is also a credit to Dongfang Qiong Opera Troupe.

Huang Donghua held his rice bowl in suspense and continued to work, and it took a long time before he refused: "I'm stupid and I don't have a brain, so I just follow the team leader and do hard work. I don't deserve the money I earn, so I won't touch it."

Both he and Lin Jiaojiao had too many children in the family and couldn't eat a bite of food a day, so they asked the Qiong Opera Troupe to send them here.

When he first joined the Qiong Opera Troupe, Huang Donghua was only five years old.He looked at the back of his parents in fear, but he didn't dare to cry, for fear that even the Qiong Opera Troupe would not take him in.

Lin Jiaojiao joined the group earlier than him. Seeing him standing pitifully, she went over to hold his hand and comforted him: "Grandma is fine, don't be afraid!"

From that day on, he knew that he was no longer the son of the Huang family, but a member of the Dongfang Qiong Opera Troupe.

Over the years, he followed Zhang Shennian to practice the basic skills hard, and has always demanded himself with the standard of "civil and military student" all-round development.

However, to use Meng Huaxiang's joking words, he suffers from poor basic conditions, whether it is voice or figure, it is not considered good, but God rewards hard work. Although he is not as talented as Zhang Shennian, he has passed With his own efforts, he worked hard to become a top student of "civil and military students".

This time, firstly, the Qiong Opera Troupe is unsustainable now, and he has nowhere to display his skills as a civil and military student; secondly, Zhang Shennian often said that life is the best teacher and an important source of emotions in opera interpretation. I also want to take this opportunity to let myself have a richer life experience so as to better pave the way for Qiongju performances.

In other words, Huang Donghua still cares about Qiongju and has a simple Qiongju heart.

Therefore, no matter how hard and tired he is, he always maintains the good habit of getting up early every day to practice exercises, and never dares to slack off.

Seeing that the two people on the opposite side were silent, Huang Donghua added lightly that his heart belonged to the Dongfang Qiong Opera Troupe.Even if one day the Dongfangqiong Troupe disbands, he will continue to practice and sing.

He has a deep love for Qiongju opera, from begging for food at the beginning, to earning a living later, and now.

Huang Donghua has never said these words publicly, but in his heart, like Meng Huaxiang, he always hopes that Qiong Opera can be passed on and carried forward!
Li Dongming saw that Huang Donghua couldn't get in, so he said to Lin Jiaojiao: "Look at him, he is as hard as a rock, even if he goes alone with us, he will only hinder us! Let's go! Let's write a letter to Brother Nian!"

The most difficult things to look at in the world are the sun and the human heart.

They only saw the smooth sailing of the stall business now, but they forgot Zhang Shennian's hardships of testing the water with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and Huang Simimei's hard work in the east where she left early and returned late to receive the goods.

When Zhang Shennian received a letter from Li Dongming, he directly laughed angrily: At the beginning, Huang Simi specifically explained that the younger generations should not be wronged, so he gave them a full maximum salary. Back then, he took them to the market and taught them how to do business. I taught all the business classics I learned.Unexpectedly, in the end, there was still a lack of people's hearts.

He was resentful in his heart, but Zhang Shennian also knew that twisted melons are not sweet.His reply was only eight words: "Come and go as you please, please feel free to do so."

Afterwards, Zhang Shennian wrote a letter to Huang Simimei, explaining the situation, and did not forget to comfort her: "It is good for young people to be aggressive, which shows that the education of Dongfang Qiong Opera Troupe is very successful! They have been attracted by our enthusiasm for taking the road of market economy." Ignite! Congratulations!"

Huang Simi's education is not high, but she is well-versed in human relations. How can she not see that her husband is comforting herself?The light in his eyes dimmed little by little, and it was hard to hide his sadness: As sung in the Qiong Opera, people do share weal and woe and share weal and woe.

Before, when she proposed to take her offspring into the sea, Zhang Shennian said that she should be prepared to fall apart one day. At that time, Huang Simi said that he judged the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and said that everyone in Qiongju Opera knows how to be kind. Newspaper, will not cross the river to demolish the bridge.

Unexpectedly, the slap in the face was so fast.

As the saying goes, children can't help their mothers, and the younger generation of this troupe is the same, their wings are stiff, and they want to fly by themselves.It's so easy to get together and get together, it can be considered as complete. Back then in the troupe, it was a master-apprentice.

It's a pity that the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop.

Both Huang Simimei and Zhang Shennian wanted to take a decent stand, but Li Dongming and Lin Jiaojiao caught them off guard: the first thing they did after going it alone was to privately seek out the villagers of Erxian Village and raise prices to snap up local products.

Not only that, they also lowered the price to ship goods for wholesale, and took away all the wholesale partners Zhang Shennian had.

Even, Li Dongming and Lin Jiaojiao acted separately, strangled Huang Donghua, who kept his own life, and devoured his business volume.

Huang Simei couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, like cooking oil in a raging fire.

However, Zhang Shennian had foreseen it a long time ago, and letters came to comfort his wife like snowflakes, while telling Huang Donghua to stabilize his position, take root in the third market, provide high-quality services, and optimize the existing purchase and sales process: "In the past, we There is only a simple and rough way to receive and sell goods, and now it is time to stop and think carefully about where the future growth of local products will be in the city!"

Huang Donghua wrote back letters to both Zhang Shennian and Huang Simei, promising that he would not forget his original intention, that he would protect the stall market in Sanya for Dongfang Qiong Opera Troupe and work for the troupe for 20 years.

This made Zhang Shennian and Huang Simei extremely moved.

The Dongfang Qiong Opera Troupe has taken in many children from poor families, not only for clothing and food, but also for the expenses from the enlightenment of the troupe to compulsory education.

Because of Zhang Shennian's loss of university qualifications, Meng Huaxiang encouraged every child to go to university, and promised that all university expenses would be borne by the Qiong Opera Troupe.

In Erxian Village, there are only a handful of families that can support their children to finish junior high school.Qiong Opera Troupe can have such benefits, most people dare not even think about it.

Although many people have verbally promised that they will work for the troupe for 20 years after graduation.

However, in recent years, some people left the troupe after getting married and started a career, and some people transferred to Haikou, Wenchang, and Ding'an, and Meng Huaxiang never stopped them.

Today, Huang Donghua takes the initiative to keep his promise, which makes the couple feel infinitely sad: some people get rich and revel, but forget their old love;

*
Huang Donghua was very obedient. Basically, Zhang Shennian ordered what to hit. Under Zhang Shennian's guidance, he introduced northeast rice and Thai fragrant rice, and raised the packaging and specifications of local products to a higher level. Selected products from the village , to win by quality; to provide "high-quality selection" for the wholesale market and only do high-end goods, but it has also abruptly embarked on a unique path of "half wholesale, half boutique market".

After Zhang Shennian stabilized in Huang Donghua, he bought three stores and took root in the third market.

Huang Donghua's execution ability is very good. According to Zhang Shennian's instructions, he opened three stores in the third market one after another, and basically contracted the business of various sub-categories in the third market.

Huang Donghua also followed the instructions and brought a few honest and reliable young people from the troupe, but this time, Huang Donghua ignored Huang Simei's objection and asked them to sign a "contract" before he would take them to Sanya.

Zhang Shennian and Huang Simimei still told these younger generations: "Come and go as you like, please do as you please."

Life is a naughty child.Sometimes, you want it frantically, but it just doesn't give it to you; when you lower your head and focus on the mess in front of you, it will surprise you unexpectedly.

After driving away Huang Donghua, Lin Jiaojiao and Li Dongming's business in the first market flourished for a while.

But soon, because they raised the cost price and lowered the sales price, the profit became smaller and smaller.

In addition, the two of them were in the troupe since they were young, and their ten fingers have not been dipped in onion water. They don't have good judgment on fruits, vegetables, and seafood. Some people in the village fish in troubled waters, and often sell them to them with mixed results, burying hidden dangers.

It can only be said that every gift given by fate is secretly marked with a price.

Li Dongming and Lin Jiaojiao temporarily won the market with unconventional low-price competition, which will inevitably have a huge impact on their business in the long run.

*
Facing the pressing forces of Li Dongming and Lin Jiaojiao, Huang Simi had to find new local goods resources.It's just that now she not only has to manage the teahouse business and land reclamation, but also is responsible for the adaptation of the troupe's performance scripts, and then travels ten miles and eight villages to find local goods, which seems extremely exhausting.More importantly, during the transportation process, all local goods will be transported to Erxian Village and then sent to Sanya. There will be consumption, such as melons and fruits being knocked and turned into defective products, and the freshness of seafood will decrease, etc.

This change gave Huang Simi a headache.

Seeing his daughter-in-law working so hard, Meng Huaxiang couldn't help but secretly scolded her son, a monkey grandson, who should be beaten. If he hadn't exposed the huge sum of money owed to the bank, why would the daughter-in-law work so hard?Feeling distressed, the old team leader stood up with great pride: "Amei, from today onwards, you can just go out and collect local goods without worry! I will take over the land reclamation and teahouse at home!"

The mother-in-law is now over [-] years old, and although she is still tall and straight, Huang Simi feels sorry for making her work hard.

Meng Huaxiang raised his eyebrows, and raised his majesty: "Although I am not as good as my mother in martial arts to kill enemies and literary talents in acting, I am still the leader of the troupe! As far as the job of the teahouse is concerned, I treat it like a troupe It’s good to plan like a town tour!”

At the beginning, Huang Simei was very worried that her mother-in-law would be exhausted, and even more worried that the business of the teahouse would be affected.

Unexpectedly, Meng Huaxiang was in charge of the purchase and operation of the teahouse, and it was in perfect order. What's more, because of the tacit understanding with the seniors of the troupe for many years, their cooperation was smoother than Huang Simei.

Huang Simei's heart was finally on the ground: she was relieved of the burden of land reclamation and teahouse management, she went out to buy local goods during the day, and went home at night to make accounts and adapt the script of Qiongju opera with ease.

It's just that Zhang Wenxuan and Zhang Wenqian are suffering, and they are often still practicing, watching their mother go out in a hurry, and when the sun sets, they can't bear it and fell asleep, and they can't wait for their mother to come back.

Fortunately, the Qiong Opera Troupe now has a kindergarten. Zhang Wenqian is happy in the kindergarten every day, and Zhang Wenxuan, who is in elementary school, has homework every day when she comes home, so she doesn't wait for her mother helplessly.

Every day at the dinner table, Meng Huaxiang never forgets to say good things about her daughter-in-law to her grandchildren: "Your mother is very great. In order to keep our Dongfang Qiong Opera Troupe, she leaves early and returns late, and strives endlessly! This is a dream. And the spirit of persistence, you must follow her as an example!"

At the dinner table, people from the Qiong Opera Troupe laughed and said that Meng Huaxiang treated his wife better than his daughter, but it seemed that Zhang Shennian was like a married man—it was Zhang Shennian who bravely went to sea to break a new world, but Meng Huaxiang Huaxiang gave all the credit to her daughter-in-law.

Meng Huaxiang often shook his head and smiled wryly: "My son! Without his wife to restrain him, he would float to the sky!"

Thinking of the debts he owed, Meng Huaxiang let out another long sigh.
