136.

"Five thousand cans in three days, four hundred in total, right?" Liu Youmao said distressedly.

"12 is four hundred and twenty-five. Today, the price of potato chips has increased. The purchase price of a tube has increased by 5%, which is 8.5 points." Shitou looked blankly at Liu Youmao and raised the price for him without blinking. , After all, his saliva can't be wasted in vain!

...

Three days later, when Shitou and Lu Aiguo went to the stall owner who insisted that they deliver once a day, the people who were furious and had to compromise became each other without exception.

Lu Aiguo and Shitou didn't come, under the circumstances that they didn't have a phone, and they didn't know where they lived. Those stall owners who were originally sent to raise their appetite every day, and were unwilling to take three days' payment all at once, just wanted to regret and couldn't find a place. Not reconciled or not. On the other hand, he was still playing drums in his heart, for fear that the two would not come back if they were angry.

It's really that Lu Aiguo's potato chips are so good, they're the only one they buy. Many stall owners have also sold potato chips made by others, but the so-called "potato chips" are not known. , and some are even baked directly.

The price is indeed a little cheaper than Duoduo potato chips, but what's the use of being cheap? People who have tried "a lot of potato chips" ask them to eat other places, hehe...

At first, some people bought it because of the cheap price. As a result, when encountering a good-natured person, there is no next time. If you meet someone who is a little grumpy, you can scold their mother directly at them, and even make a fuss about returning it.

But you want to return everything after you open it and eat it? So buyers and sellers will inevitably have a fight.

Of course, it is not a "substitute" that does not make it easy to see. But the portion is small, and the price can't come down at all. It's not cheaper than a lot of potato chips at all, so it's far worse than a lot of potato chips in all aspects.

In the end, everyone learned to be obedient, and when buying potato chips, they only agreed to recognize the brand of "Duoduo". This has also led to many years later, Duoduo's dominance of potato chips has always stood. After the domestic potato chip market was hit by foreign potato chips, many people still supported "Duoduo".

Of course, after everyone knew that Duoduo potato chips were closely related to..., the vast majority of people who liked potato chips only recognized it.

The three-day delivery has finally been successfully implemented. For those who resisted, Lu Aiguo and Shitou both raised their prices by 5%.

Only once every three days, Lu Aiguo and Shitou can deliver the goods in more than a day. Even if there is only one person, more than two days of work is almost the same.

This time, both of them are like untie, and they can finally have the time to do other things.

Originally, out of prudence, Lu Aiguo wanted to take the money to visit Yushu Village in person, but because the medicinal bath and liquid had not been soaked, the others were resolutely refusing to let Lu Aiguo go to waste.

In the end, Lu Aiguo had to compromise, and sent a telegram to Lu Erbo to notify a few people to leave for Haicheng as soon as possible. Then sent back a thick registered letter.

The first and second floors of the house in Jingtou Village were painted, and the tap water was installed as quickly as possible because of Gu Tianming's running back and forth. That is, the electricity has not been turned on, so I can only make do with candles temporarily.

Also, the unit that can let them learn to drive is also contacted.

Finally, Erbo Lu sent a telegram, informing them of the arrival time of the train that Xie Jiang, Lu Aijiao, Wu Tan, Lin Weisheng and Zhang Ming were on.

The people were brought back by Lu Aiguo and Shishi on tricycles. Seeing that there was no nephew Xie Jifu among the people who came, Lu Aiguo couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say you brought Jifu?"

"My father-in-law didn't let him bring it." Lu Aijiao replied with a smile, "It was the two of us who came to help, where can I do things with a child. So the child stayed."

"Eldest sister, Jifu is so good, it doesn't really hinder you. Just take the child out to see the world, and it won't be long. You and your brother-in-law don't have to come out after the New Year."

Lu Aiguo said casually Xie Jiang and Lu Aijiao were dumbfounded.

The other three were also confused, Lin Weisheng rubbed his head, "Brother Aiguo, why don't you have to come out after New Year's Eve with Sister Aijiao and brother-in-law? You don't need so many people? What about us?

" Brother Aiguo didn't mean that, it's inconvenient outside, let's talk slowly when we get back." Shitou quickly explained to everyone when he was dazed.

"Who said I don't need so many people? I'm still short of manpower." Lu Aiguo glared, "I've already contacted us, all of us, except my eldest sister, will learn to drive. After a while, I should be able to learn it by then."

"Learn to drive? Really or not?" Lin Weisheng jumped up suddenly, unable to restrain his excitement, "Is that a big car or a tractor?"

"We didn't.. Did you hear it wrong?" Xie Jiang, Wu Tan, and Zhang Ming asked in unison, their voices full of excitement. Even Lu Aijiao turned her head.

"Is it good to lie to you?" Lu Aiguo scolded with a smile, "I will go back today to get you a welcome feast, and have a night's rest at night. From tomorrow onwards, you will be energized and work. Before you learn to drive a big car, you have to Learn the three-wheeled bicycle first."

"That's great..."

Cheers suddenly sounded.

Lu Aiguo and Shitou both laughed, and sent a few people to the house over in Jingtou Village to put their luggage.

Xie Jiang and Lu Aijiao were assigned a large suite, and the rest were each a small suite.

Entering the door, the first person to go is the large suite prepared for Xie Jiang and Lu Aijiao.

The five people from Yushu Village were all arranged to live on the second floor. Although there are also suites on the first floor, but after all, there are not enough suites with their own balconies on the second floor for them to live in.

Having a balcony for laundry and drying is much more convenient.

Opening the door of the room, at a glance, the furniture in the suite is fresh and neat. Those are specially made to order by the carpenter, the same primary color, only varnished.

The large suites each have a one-meter-five double bed and a one-meter-two single bed, each with a whole new set of bedding.

In addition to the bed, there is a large double-door wardrobe in the corner of the wall. Open the wardrobe door, the inside of the door is a full-length mirror that illuminates the person. Above the wardrobe is a cabinet with the same width and length, and the height is directly to the ceiling. There are two beds in it, which are also brand new and thicker quilts.

In addition, there is a chest of drawers, the top drawer is locked, the key is hung on the drawer, and there is a table and a chair at the end.

"Is this too good?"

137. Preparations for Enduring Hardship

Xie Jiang, Lu Aijiao, Wu Tan, Lin Weisheng and Zhang Ming looked around and were amazed enough, but they found out that they had opened another door in the room, and there was a balcony with an anti-theft net outside. There is also a bathroom.

The bathroom was not big, so it took up a small section of the balcony, and it contained all kinds of toiletry utensils. The toilet is a squat toilet, and the area is large enough for one person to circle in it. But everyone was very excited and quickly learned how to use the flush valve.

Xie Jiang and Lu Aijiao had uncontrollable smiles on their faces, and the other three showed envious eyes.

"Your individual suites are similar to the ones here. It's just a little bit smaller, with only the difference of one bed."

This time, Lu Aiguo was very sensitive and noticed everyone's emotional changes, and immediately gave him a Reassured, and at the same time, I gave a big thumbs up for the proposal of my daughter who insisted on making it like this, a suite with a bathroom.

"You mean our room is like this, and we have a bathroom like this?" Lin Weisheng, Wu Tan, and Zhang Ming were simply surprised, their excited voices trembled.

No wonder they were happy. Before they came, no one would have imagined that the room that Lu Aiguo had arranged for everyone was so good, which was several times better than the marriage room of the best family in the village.

No matter who the boy is, if there is such a house, I am afraid that no matter how beautiful the girl is, she will cry and cry for marriage, right?

Before they came, Xie Jiang and Lu Aijiao had discussed with each other privately, even if they found out that the conditions here in Lu Aiguo were not good after they came, they must not give up.

Lu Aiguo had helped them too much before, even if he came here to be a white worker this time, as long as he needed help, even if others ran away, he would have to grit his teeth for a while to help him get through this difficult time.

The situation on Lin Weisheng, Wu Tan, and Zhang Ming is actually similar. When they were at home, their family members had gone through all kinds of speculations, but they didn't have much expectations for them coming to Haicheng.

After all, Lu Aiguo and Shitou haven't been here for a long time. No one believes that they can really do anything in such a short time.

But Lu Erbo came to the door to ask. Lin Weisheng had enough labor at home, and he was wild-hearted. He was not willing to stay in the village and face the loess with his back to the sky. It's not good to stop him, so I specifically told him to do it well when he came, don't be afraid of hardship.

Wu Tan also wanted to come by himself. He and Lu Aiguo were so good they could almost wear a pair of trousers. The person who was most convinced in his life was him. Coupled with the situation at home, he also has an idea that he desperately wants to change. So Lu Erbo nodded when he asked him, and entrusted the land at home.

As for Zhang Ming, it was Zhang Cai who went back to her parents' house and insisted that her parents agree to call him here. His parents couldn't beat the family who had the idea to marry, and they could often help the niece of the mother's family, so no matter how reluctant they were, they finally called their younger son.

So they actually prepared enough to endure hardship at the beginning, but when they arrived, they found out that they wanted to enjoy happiness?

There is no way that what they have seen with their own eyes is fake, and everyone is glad that they have come to the right.

No wonder they had been specifically instructed not to let them go out with their own bedding. Families are still muttering, who can have extra bedding in these years, and who doesn't go out with a bedding?

"Of course, how could I favor one over another." Lu Aiguo said casually.

"Hey."

Everyone laughed.

"Could it be that all the people in the city live in such houses?" Lu Aijiao asked, unable to hide her excitement.

"Yeah, no wonder the educated youths in our village ran faster than rabbits with policies, and many of them even left their own babies..."

Others looked at Lu Aiguo with a puzzled look. This is also their question, is the city really so good?

"How is that possible? My sister-in-law's eldest sister's family of four are still crowded into a room of more than 20 square meters. The room is not as big as this. I still don't count the balcony and bathroom outside.

Shitou laughed and said intentionally or unintentionally, "Houses in the city are much more tense than those in our village. Many of them are family members of several generations huddled in a small house, and some even the girls are older than they are. " I had to squeeze in the same bed as my parents."

"Stone is talking about more urban areas. This is the suburbs, and in the eyes of the locals in Haicheng, it is actually a rural place. The house here is not so nervous. Just like in our village, people in the village can apply for land approval to build houses if they have no place to live. It took us a lot of effort to approve the land here and build it ourselves."

Lu Aiguo and Shitou have been partners for many years. How could he not understand what he was trying to convey? He didn't want everyone to have the illusion that living conditions like this in Haicheng were common and not uncommon.

"Everyone builds their own houses. Every family here must have different ideas, so the houses they build are naturally different. It's almost the same as other people's houses having a bathroom on one floor. It's actually Xiaoyun's work here. The idea is the same as where we live now."

As Lu Aiguo explained, he did not forget to give his daughter a good impression.

"Xiaoyun said that you are all from your own family, and you can't be told to live in a bad place. Even in this house, not every room has a balcony. The fact that you all live on the second floor is because there are enough rooms with a balcony on the second floor. It 's because of you."

"I didn't expect Xiaoyun to be so capable and conscientious now, and to think so thoughtfully for all of us." Lu Aijiao praised with a smile, attracting a chorus of echoes.

"Xiaoyun from our family is ten times better than other kids. She gets 100% in every exam in school." Speaking of daughter Lu Aiguo, it's very honorable to hear someone compliment her. Praise yourself for being excited. Seeing that he was in high spirits, everyone couldn't help but complimented Lu Yun several times.

Afterwards, they looked at their respective rooms one by one, and put away their luggage by the way. Lu Aiguo gave everyone a set of the door and the keys to their respective rooms, and finally opened a few empty locked suites for them to see. Everyone found that some of them had only windows and no balconies. In comparison, the suites they were assigned were all the best. It can be seen that Lu Aiguo and several people put their hearts into it.

"The kitchen is downstairs, there are rice and noodles, game and some dry vegetables that are durable. Those are just in case you get hungry in the middle of the night and you can get some food for yourself. Usually three meals go to my place to eat together. During the day, the elder sister will also go over there to help." Lu Aiguo explained them one by one happily.

138. Arrangements

"When you finish eating the food here, tell my eldest sister in time and tell my eldest sister to find Xia Yuan to take it? 12?? Xia Yuan is now in charge of the account, and your salary will be taken from her in the future, for a month. It's 60 yuan, including food and lodging. We have one day off every week. You are not outsiders, so don't be too polite and embarrassed, then you won't be beautiful if you lose your belly.

" The words about the salary were said so that everyone would not be embarrassed to ask, and by the way, he said the last sentence with a smile. As a result, no one responded, and when he looked again, they were all staring at him, obviously stunned.

Lu Aiguo rubbed his head and looked at Shishi, both of them felt a little confused.

"Aiguo, you, what kind of business are you doing?" Lu Aijiao was obviously quite frightened.

"Potato chips."

Lu Aiguo blinked, then suddenly realized. For a while, he was a bit dumbfounded, "Where did you all think of going?"

When he left the village, he told the second uncle and the others that he had saved people, had a way to get supplies, and came to Haicheng to open a shop. Now they still don't plan to tell them all about it, they still have to get the "rescued person" out.

"Originally we planned to open a shop, but it didn't work out. We changed to deliver it to someone else. The potato chips were obtained by someone else, but they were under our own brand, and they sold very well. I was busy with Shishi. But come."

Lu Aiguo spoke very slowly, so that everyone could hear clearly, "Now we have a way to get a machine, if we produce potato chips ourselves, it will be more profitable. But at this moment, the national policy is not yet When the time comes to open the factory in an open and honest way, it is difficult to talk about it when I was outside."

"I said that my eldest sister and brother-in-law will not be called after the year because I plan to open the factory in my hometown, and that in the future. The factory asked my eldest sister and brother-in-law to take care of it. When my eldest sister came back, the main thing was to ask her to follow Xia Yuan to learn bookkeeping. On the brother-in-law's side, it wasn't difficult. The machines were fully automated, and there was no need for many people to use them. "

"The three of you are left, I want to ask Wu Tan to go to the magic capital and be responsible for expanding the business there. It would be best if I can find a helper in the village. If not, don't rush to expand the business so much. Of course, at the beginning, Shitou and I will take turns running to help you. When we can recruit people in the future, we will recruit people to work from the outside, and we will do it again."

"As for Wei Sheng and Zhang Ming, when the time comes. We also have to buy a small truck, and you are responsible for driving and delivering goods in these three places. Whether you buy a car or learn to drive, you need to find a relationship, so I thought about it, and just a few of us went to learn, It's not a loss if you learn it. You have to take turns driving with two people when you get out of the car. If Wei Sheng and Zhang Ming have something to do, someone else can replace them."

From how much salary is paid to everyone each month to how to arrange several of them, Lu Aiguo, Shi Shi, Xia Yuan, and Lu Yun all discussed it repeatedly together.

None of the cars in Lu Yun's space could be taken out for use in this era. Fortunately, they don't have to worry about gasoline. Otherwise, even if Lu Aiguo and Shitou had the ability to find the affiliated unit, they would not have the ability to buy gasoline.

After speaking, Lu Aiguo saw that everyone had not recovered, so he lowered his voice, "Although Shitou and I have such plans, whether it is to open a factory or go to Modu, we have to take some risks, even driving a car. It's not necessarily that safe. I don't blame you if you don't want to."
