Chapter 60 Opportunity
After Xu Jichang yelled, the order in the yard improved a little. The folks who came to sell mountain goods began to line up in an orderly line, and came to Xu Jichang to sell them one by one.

"Fresh wild fungus, with a lot of moisture and good color, costs [-] cents a catty. Shunzi, come and weigh Xiaohu's wild fungus."

"Okay, your mountain fungus is... three catties in total."

"Then it's thirty-six cents in total. Let's count the money."

After Xu Jichang finished speaking, he took out three dimes and a few coins from his pocket.

"Thank you Chang!"

After the member named Xiaohu finished counting the money, he put it in his pocket happily and left.

In the past, when members of Heixiazitun sold mountain products, the price would be suppressed by the buying station. Over time, everyone lost their enthusiasm for entering the mountain.

Now Xu Jichang is willing to purchase at a fair price, and there is no upper limit on the quantity. This is really great news for everyone.

As the saying goes, relying on the mountain to eat the mountain, the members of Heixiazitun are really eating now that they have Xu Jichang.

As Xu Jichang and Shunzi kept busy, more and more mountain goods were bought before them, and the team selling mountain goods was gradually advancing.

In the yard, there were voices of gratitude to Xu Jichang, because he really made everyone earn money.

"Huh, it's finally over."

When it was approaching lunch time, Xu Jichang finally took Shunzi to buy all the mountain goods in the hands of the villagers.

After he finished his work, Xu Jichang put his hands on his hips and looked at the piles of goods in the yard, just like seeing the piles of money.

"We have to spread out the mountain goods to dry, otherwise they will get moldy when piled up."

Shunzi moved her hands that were sore from holding the scale for a long time, and said to Xu Jichang.

"Let's talk about it in the afternoon, let's have lunch first."

Xu Jichang said.

While the two were talking, Chen Dazhu and Shunzi's mother came back from their work and turned into the yard.

The double robbing is over, but Chen Dazhu's task as the production team leader is only halfway through, and he needs to worry about packing the grain and paying the public grain.

"Jichang, your mountain goods purchase business is getting bigger and bigger."

After Chen Dazhu walked into the courtyard gate, he pointed to the mountains of goods piled up in his yard, and said to Xu Jichang with a smile.

He had known for a long time that his son was collecting a large amount of mountain goods for Xu Jichang, but he didn't expect that Xu Jichang would collect so much after he came back.

"Uncle Chen, this is not only my business, but also the business of all black and blind people."

"With me buying mountain goods here, the folks in our team will have enough to eat."

Xu Jichang said seriously.

Chen Dazhu didn't expect him to say such a thing, and nodded after a moment of serious thinking: "You are right, this is indeed an extremely beneficial thing for our entire production team."

"Go ahead and do it with confidence. If you have any disputes, tell uncle, and uncle will uphold justice for you."

As the production team leader, Chen Dazhu's greatest wish is to feed all members of the commune, and he is willing to try all means for this.

Now Xu Jichang buys a large number of mountain goods to increase the income of the members. In Chen Dazhu's eyes, he is doing himself a big favor.

"Thank you, Uncle Chen, I may still have to occupy your place to sell mountain goods in the future."

"Don't look outside, just use it."

Xu Jichang and Chen Dazhu talked, walked into his house, took off their shoes and sat on the kang together naturally, planning to have lunch at his house.

For Xu Jichang, it is very important to get the support of Chen Dazhu for the mountain goods business, after all, who can guarantee that he will not encounter any troubles in the process of doing business.

At times like this, the support of local figures is very important.

Especially for people like Chen Dazhu, as the captain of the production team, he has great authority among the men, women and children in the whole village. With him in charge, even the younger generation will have to think carefully before trying to make trouble.

Xu Jichang, Chen Dazhu and his son sat on the kang table, and after a while, Shunzi's mother cooked the lunch and brought it up.

Braised tofu, ground three delicacies, and a stir-fried vegetable are also quite good hospitality specifications in the farmhouse.

Since everyone has their own work to do in the afternoon, we didn't drink much this time, just had a couple of drinks.

After eating, Chen Dazhu chatted with Xu Jichang again, and then took Shunzi's mother to the warehouse of the production team, busy packing the food.

After Xu Jichang and Shunzi had a short rest, they came to the yard and began to spread the mountain goods to dry.

"Brother Chang, how much did you spend on the acquisition this time?"

"It cost more than 130 in total. Why, do you want to become a shareholder and work together?"

"No, no, I don't have the guts."

"Are you sure? I usually look at you so fiercely, but why did you get scared when something happened?"

"Thank you, Brother Chang. I know you're doing it for my own good, but I still don't have the guts."

"alright."

Xu Ji often saw that Shunzi was timid, so he didn't force it, "I should be able to sell all the goods in a few days, when you come to the city to find me, I'll pay you a salary."

"No, I'm just helping out. How dare you ask Brother Chang for your money."

Sunja scratched the back of her head and said sincerely.

In this day and age, it is normal for good friends to be embarrassed to talk about money, especially in rural areas.

If someone works for a good friend and still takes money, after the news spreads, people may be said to be dishonest and fall into the eyes of money.

But Xu Jichang is not bound by this kind of concept. In his eyes, he has to pay someone to do the work.

"Our two brothers have been playing together since we were young. How can I order you around for nothing? Besides, I took up your house's space to dry mountain goods, and I have to take up your house's labor to dry and clean up later."

"So don't be polite to me today."

"Come on, you go to the house and boil some hot water. Later, you will pluck the feathers of the pheasants and skin the rabbits. After marinating, put them all in the sun, so as not to stink over time."

Xu Jichang said to him while drying the tripe mushrooms with Shunzi.

"Ok."

Shunzi nodded and said, got up from the ground and ran to boil water.

After playing for so long since he was a child, he once again felt that Xu Jichang was different from others today.

When someone starts with the phrase that we have played together since we were young, it is probably because they want to take advantage of each other.But Xu Jichang was different, he started with this sentence because he really wanted to pay his wages.

Based on these words alone, Shunzi instinctively concluded that there must be a future in the future with Xu Jichang.

Not long after, the mountain products outside the house were almost dried, and Shunzi inside the house also boiled hot water.

After Shunzi brought out a large tub of hot water, Xu Jichang and he began to pluck and skin pheasants and hares with hot water.

Here, he and Shunzi are extremely busy.

On the ridge of the production team, Mother Shen and Shen Danrui were also walking while discussing the matter between her and Xu Jichang.

"Danrui, Xu Jichang's return to his hometown this time is an opportunity for you."

"what chance?"

"It's an opportunity to sniff out his mouth, you have to find out what his attitude is towards you."

Mother Shen made it clear to her daughter.
