Reborn at 70 and living a good life with his biological mother
Chapter 38 Ordering Vegetable Oil
"It's expensive!" Aunt Fang sighed, "I really can't afford this oil, but there's nothing I can do about it!"
"I heard from our old man that the price of oil will probably rise in the second half of the year, but the current price is still cheap."
Aunt Fang also saw that Zhang Lan was unwilling to sell to Yu Xiang and her daughter. After all, she was asking for help in this matter, so she couldn't say much and could only look at Yu Xiang apologetically.
Zhang Lan glanced at Lin Wanyi, her eyes flickering, full of disgust, "Aunt Fang, have you guys decided how much oil you want? I'll register now. My sister is going back to the city soon. I I have to count them and give them to her."
Aunt Fang quickly said: "Didn't my Jiehong order 30 pounds from you and give me all the money?"
Zhang Lan nodded and replied: "Look at my memory. There are too many people and I forget it. I will register how many others want."
Another person said: "I will also buy a 30-pound one..."
"My family wants a 10-pound one."
"Our family wants a 15-pound one."
Zhang Lan registered them one by one.
There was a smile on her eyebrows, "Don't worry, I will send them to your home in a few days."
Everyone is very grateful.
Aunt Fang pulled Lin Wanyi's clothes and asked secretly, "How come you two don't see eye to eye with her?"
"It's not like she's wrong, it's just that she can't spit out ivory from her dog's mouth."
Aunt Fang: "..."
"When the time comes, you two will go and buy it yourself. It will be a waste of money. If there is anything you can't do with money, don't be foolish at this moment. Talk to others carefully, and if I can give you some, please give me some."
Lin Wanyi quickly refused.
Zhang Lan spoke first, her tone rising, "Auntie, I know you are kind-hearted, but I can't buy back their oil."
Aunt Fang was stunned.
Why is this Lan Ze so stubborn?
Zhang Lan narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Wanyi, "A good thing like mine can't happen to them. The two of them are very capable. They don't need this little money to buy oil from me, let alone eight or nine cents of oil. Even if it's just a piece or two, the couple can afford it, after all... there are a lot of duck eggs in the reed swamps!"
Aunt Fang hurriedly came to the rescue, "Zhang Lan, what's wrong with you? Yu Xiang and her daughter are both very good. Now that they are from the same village, we can't talk about anything."
"I'm not from the same village as her. Has she settled down? I just hate selfish people like mother and daughter." Zhang Lan snorted coldly and said arrogantly, "Sixty cents of oil. I just won't help them, they are like beggars. Our village is kind enough to take them in, and I still plan to get benefits from our village. Go ahead and dream! They still eat oil, which is about the same as the northwest wind."
Yu Xiang's face looked a little ugly.
She originally wanted to swallow her anger, but this Zhang Lan kept pushing the envelope, and the two of them didn't provoke her. She spoke to the two of them, and it was really easy to treat them as soft persimmons.
This time, she seemed to be out of control and actually wanted to defend herself.
Yu Xiang opened her mouth, "Don't be so sentimental, we two have no intention of buying your oil at all."
"Really? It's best this way. Don't ask me to sell it to you in the future!" Zhang Lan rolled his eyes and left directly.
Lin Wanyi kept staring at Zhang Lan's back, with an ugly expression on her face.
As soon as this man left, everyone in front of the village committee fell silent.
Afraid of offending Yu Xiang by speaking rashly.
I'm afraid that if I don't speak, the atmosphere will be awkward.
Aunt Fang sighed, "Sister Yuxiang, how about this? I will use my name to help you buy some. If she doesn't know that you bought it, she won't make things difficult for you."
Yu Xiang knew that Aunt Fang had good intentions.
But he still refused, "Sister Fang, I still have enough oil at home, so don't make it difficult for us two."
After hearing what she said, Aunt Fang said nothing more.
It's just a pity that Yu Xiang and her daughter didn't seize such a good opportunity.
Lin Wanyi didn't know why, but she always felt that this was unreliable.
If you buy such a large amount on the black market, it is a big risk. If you buy it on the black market, it shouldn't be at this price...
Lin Wanyi said to Aunt Fang: "Aunt, I think this oil is unreliable. Don't buy so much. I went shopping in the county yesterday and I know that some people sell it for [-] cents without tickets, and that Our family also eats the oil, so there’s no problem.”
After hearing what Lin Wanyi said, Aunt Fang felt a little unsure, but she couldn't get it back after buying it. She was thinking about what could go wrong in a village. Besides, she wanted a lot, so she couldn't go to the county seat. You may not be able to buy so much, so I don’t worry about it.
This little episode is over.
Late at night, while Yu Xiang was asleep, Lin Wanyi got up and went to the Shen family courtyard, where she and Shen Qingshan squeezed the remaining peanut kernels into oil overnight.
It's already midnight after all the work.
Fortunately, the Shen family is really remote, and the oil press machine is not loud. Lin Wanyi and Shen Qingshan put the fried oil in a tank.
It's full of oil, plus what was in the jar in the morning, there are about 120 kilograms of oil.
Lin Wanyi was so sleepy that she yawned, "It's done, I have to go to bed."
Shen Qingshan pulled Lin Wanyi and asked, "I heard that you and your mother were made things difficult for you by Zhang Lan today?"
Zhang Lan?
Lin Wanyi was so sleepy that her reflexes were slowed down. She thought about it for a moment before remembering who Zhang Lan was. Then she nodded indifferently, "I don't even care about that woman. A biting dog doesn't bark. This is the worst." It’s just the little cub jumping up and down a few times.”
Shen Qingshan was originally worried that Lin Wanyi would feel uncomfortable, but he didn't expect that Lin Wanyi didn't like Zhang Lan at all, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to rub the top of Lin Wanyi's hair, "Go to bed quickly. I will sell oil tomorrow and come back to you in the evening."
Lin Wanyi secretly returned to the kang, still a little dizzy.
He touched the top of his hair. It had grown so big... This was the first time that a man other than his uncle had touched his head. It felt really complicated.
Shen Qingshan's eyes fell on the oil tank. This clear and transparent oil, even people who don't know the product know that it is good stuff.
Shen Qingshan knocked on Liang Yuzhu's door overnight.
Liang Yuzhu opened the door angrily at night, and when he saw Shen Qingshan, he cursed, "You bastard, I finally came back from the provincial capital to catch up on my sleep, and you just came and knocked on the door like a sorcerer, so that I could have a peaceful sleep." I can’t even sleep!”
Shen Qingshan entered the house regardless and said: "Uncle Zhuzhu, last time I and Jiang An moved for you, I saw that there seemed to be a lot of bottles and jars in your house. Please give me those bottles and jars. Also, tomorrow Lend me your big cart too."
Liang Yuzhu woke up and stared at Shen Qingshan, "You brat, what method of making money are you holding back?"
Shen Qingshan didn't say anything, but deliberately made a pass.
I moved a lot of bottles and cans back, put the cart out, and went to my house to find a lot of straw to lay on.
Being busy until midnight, Shen Qingshan couldn't sleep and went to the county town with a truck of oil.
Shen Qingshan went straight to the military camp in the suburbs.
The village is a little anxious because of the vegetable oil crisis.
Zhang Lan agreed to buy oil, and many people placed orders from her.
Yu Xiang was in bed in the middle of the night, looking at the ceiling, unable to sleep.
Lin Wanyi forced her eyelids to open, "Mom, why did you wake up?"
"I'm not thinking about Zhang Lan. Your Aunt Fang also said that the price of oil may increase in the second half of the year. Do you think we should also stock up on oil at home to avoid wasting money?"
The more Yu Xiang thought about it, the more anxious she became, "What if the price really goes up by then? I don't know how much it will be. Should we also inform your uncle and the others and ask them to stock up more? If there is no oil to eat, then There must be no gas...your uncle and the others never care about such things."
Lin Wanyi woke up and said, "Mom, don't think too much. It's really not possible. I can't buy an oil press. It's enough for us to squeeze the oil ourselves without buying it."
Only then did Yu Xiang remember this matter, and she had more thoughts in her mind.
But he didn't dare to say it. When he saw Lin Wanyi yawning, he suppressed what was on his mind.
The genius is bright.
There are already many people queuing up to buy gas in front of Zhang Lan's house.
Zhang Lan collected the money and registered one by one. Now this person was not only from his own village, but also from Gejia Village next door. After receiving the news, they all came over and lined up. There was a small market in front of Zhang Lan's house.
The people in Gejiacun spoke one after another.
"Zhang Lan, we paid you to register. Don't be short on your weight and let us weigh you."
"Yes, if this oil is good, I will buy it from your house in the future."
"Don't worry, I won't let you down."
"I heard from our old man that the price of oil will probably rise in the second half of the year, but the current price is still cheap."
Aunt Fang also saw that Zhang Lan was unwilling to sell to Yu Xiang and her daughter. After all, she was asking for help in this matter, so she couldn't say much and could only look at Yu Xiang apologetically.
