Chapter 60 Go to Xinda to get the goods
"How could they not eat fish? It's just because it's not tasty and it's a waste of seasoning. If conditions were good, do you think people would eat fish?" Hua's mother said helplessly, "Didn't you see at the graduation banquet? All the dried fish were snatched away by everyone."
As long as it is edible, there will be people who don’t want to eat it. It’s just that when given a choice, people don’t want to eat something that is not tasty!
When they are hungry, they will eat leaves, tree bark, and mouse meat. How could they not eat fish?
Hua Xiali thought about it and it was true. Life in the countryside was still difficult now and everyone was quite frugal. When everyone's conditions gradually improved, how could they not eat the delicious food?
No matter what it is, the price is rising rapidly as people eat more of it.
So she had to stock up more while everyone else was still not reacting, just enough for her family to eat.
Zhang Yongfeng and Hua Chunli came back in the evening and pushed back all the things they had set up for the stall. It was just a snack stall, but they were almost framed.
After Hua's father was able to sit up, he no longer lay in bed all day long. He spent most of his time sitting on a bamboo chair. This chair can be used for sitting or lying down, and is quite comfortable. He doesn't have to stay in the same posture all day, making his whole body uncomfortable.
When the family was having dinner together in the evening, Hua Xiali said, "Brother-in-law, starting tomorrow, you will be responsible for wholesale pig offal at the farmers' market! We wholesale 1,000 kilograms of raw materials every day, which can be packed into about 700 boxes after processing. After deducting costs and labor costs, we can make about 400 yuan. 400 yuan a day, that's 12,000 yuan a month, which is not bad."
"The main reason is that there are not enough people to do the cleaning. If we can add a few more people, we can do more every day." Hua's mother said.
Hua Xiali shook his head. "You can't become a big fat man in one bite. Don't be in a hurry. Take your time. Let's quietly make some money first and talk about it later. If we bring in outsiders now, won't everyone know about it? Will we still be able to make money peacefully then? Although it is said that when you are poor, you can take care of yourself, and when you are rich, you can help the world, but we still have a loan of more than 60,000 yuan, so we just need to be a poor person who takes care of himself now. When we become rich in the future, it won't be too late to help everyone."
The people who are helping their family now are all those who have a good relationship with them and have no conflicts with them. In order to make money, they will choose to keep it secret and not tell anyone about it.
"I didn't want to help others, I just felt that there were not enough people." Hua's mother said. She was not so kind as to care whether those who had taken advantage of their family's misfortune had money or food to eat.
"Mom, then you can ask my eldest aunt, second aunt, third aunt, and fourth aunt if anyone is willing to come and help. If they are, just put a bamboo bed in my room and let her sleep on my water bamboo bed." Hua Xiali said.
Anyone who can lend money to their family and who can distinguish right from wrong is naturally a person of impeccable character.
Mother Hua nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask them some other day. If they are willing to come and help, we can make more."
Although Hua Xiali has separated from everyone and is the only one who bears the bank loan, we are all family, how can we be so heartless and ungrateful? If we earn more money, we can repay the loan earlier. It is not a good thing to always carry so much loan.
"What about you? What new plans do you have?" Zhang Yongfeng asked curiously. "I plan to go to Xinda as soon as possible and use the remaining money to wholesale some small commodities." Hua Xiali said.
"Out of town?" Zhang Yongfeng raised his eyebrows. "It's not safe for you to go to such a far place alone. Then I'll go with you!"
"No, you stay at home and take good care of the house for me." Hua Xiali refused hastily. She still wanted to use the Lingquan space to cheat. If Zhang Yongfeng followed her, how could she cheat? "Don't worry, it's not the end of the year yet, and there are not many people taking the train. It's okay. Besides, I'm an adult now. I can take care of myself. Don't worry about me."
She had to make the money she had make money so that she could earn more money. She could leave the braised food business to her mother. She only needed to add a little Lingquan water to the seasoning and she didn't need to worry about anything else. It was a waste of time for her to stay at home. Instead of doing that, she might as well earn more money before going to college.
Otherwise, when she graduates from college and enters the workplace, some companies seem to not allow employees to have other side jobs outside, so she has to plan her affairs as much as possible before getting a new job, so that she can work with peace of mind.
Hua Xiali doesn't know if she will have an accident when she is going on a long journey. After all, no one knows which will come first, tomorrow or an accident. But she can't be afraid of an accident and then do nothing and hide at home every day. How can that be okay?
But my eldest sister’s college things are still kept in her space. If something happens to me, it will be very troublesome for my eldest sister to go to college. But these things cannot be left at home, so as to avoid being stolen again.
So Hua Xiali thought of a suitable candidate, that is Huo Beixi.
Huo Beixi is tall, has long legs and well-developed muscles. Thieves simply don't dare to visit his house. Even if they do, they will not be successful and will probably be caught on the spot by Huo Beixi!
"Well, the taste of this fish cooked with pickles is really different, so fresh and fragrant." After Hua Qiuli took a bite of the pickled fish, his eyes brightened.
"It's delicious, I'll make it often in the future." Hua Xiali smiled faintly. She originally wanted to make sauerkraut fish, but they didn't have sauerkraut here, only pickles. It seemed that sauerkraut was only available in Northeast China!
Moreover, whether it is sauerkraut or pickled vegetables, they can neutralize the fishy smell of fish. Even without adding other seasonings, the fish does not taste fishy at all. I guess people who don’t like clear fish soup can accept such fish soup.
She picked up a lot of fish in the downstream section of the river bend today, both big and small, and some weighed dozens of kilograms. She can cook the fish often in the future to nourish her family.
The place where she picked up fish today was the downstream section of their village, not the downstream section of the entire river. A river could not be so short. She could continue downstream tomorrow. The water downstream might have dried up and the fish might have died. If there were some that had left the water but were still alive, she could still "rescue" them!
The next morning, Hua Xiali and Zhang Yongfeng went to the farmers' market to wholesale pork offal. After sending Zhang Yongfeng and the pork offal to the three-wheeled vehicle they had been working on for a long time, Hua Xiali took another three-wheeled vehicle to the county train station and asked how long it would take to get to Xinda and what the ticket number was.
