In the following days, Jiang Liu gradually put the focus of his life on catching up and making money, because every time he brought the goods to the market, he would be sold out quickly, and the people in the same commune soon noticed this matter. At the beginning of sympathy, gradually different voices came out.

"Have you heard?"

When sleeping at night, Wang Xuemei thought about the news he heard from others during the day, turned over and over and couldn't sleep, and simply awakened her husband who had fallen asleep, and wanted to talk to each other.

"What have you heard?"

Jiang Hai was awakened by a good sleep and was naturally unhappy, but his wife’s identity was special, and his work was also arranged by Yue Zhang’s help, no matter how much anger could only be pressed to the bottom of his heart.

Wang Xuemei's condition is good. Her father is the principal of the commune's only elementary school. However, this principal is not because of his high academic qualifications, but by his own brother who is a deputy director of the commune, and Wang Xuemei's uncle.

In the early years, the persecution of the cultural people was serious. The principal who had the ability to be the principal had been sent to the farm to fight for reform. Instead, Wang Xuemei and her father Wang Duoyu took advantage. Even if the situation is getting better now, more and more Intellectuals have been rehabilitated and have not changed.

According to this family background, Wang Xuemei can marry in the town or county town and eat food. However, she is obsessed with Bai Jingjunxiu's Jianghai and crying and marrying him.

At that time, the high school was suspended, and Jiang Hai, who was still in the second year of high school, was at most a junior high school diploma. The family conditions were ordinary. Only the status of the three generations of poor farmers can be regarded as a political capital.

But there are too many poor farmers in the country, this is not a rare thing.

But who made Wang Xuemei's attitude firm, the two also broke out with the unmarried pregnancies that seemed to be scandals at that time. The Wang family had no choice but to pinch their noses to recognize this family matter. The Wang family also had an active relationship to help the junior high school education. Jiang Hai arranged a teacher's job in the commune elementary school.

Jiang Hai still has to rely on the Yue family for support and care at school, so at home, his wife Wang Xuemei is becoming more and more obedient. How dare you give her a look.

"It's your elder brother. These days I move thatch to my house every day. I made some fresh things and exchanged them with people at the market. It is said that the business is very good. The goods brought to the market can always be sold out quickly. "

Wang Xuemei said jealously, when the river flowed to move the thatch at home, she was still going to read a joke. After all, how much can that kind of thing made of thatch that can be picked up in the countryside be worth it? Children occupy places.

From her point of view, Jiang Liu was so stupid that she was working in vain.

"Listen to others, your elder brother can earn this amount in one day."

Wang Xuemei made a slap in the face. She said when she was younger, the villages all passed rivers and rushed to gather to earn seven or eight dollars. Wang Xuemei felt that this might be the result of exaggerating the rumor, so she reduced the amount a little. Where is she? I know that Jiang Liu's real money is far more than the figures circulating on the team.

This is also the common idea of ​​everyone. In their view, what is made of thatch is worthless. Even if you can sell it, a basket of six or seven pieces of things will be skyrocketing.

"Think about it, Big Brother rushed to two big collections a month. It was ten dollars a month and one hundred and twenty dollars a year. He made a fortune."

Jiang Hai worked as a teacher in the commune elementary school. He had a salary of 18 yuan a month, and his annual income was much higher than the figure Wang Xuemei said now. Moreover, Jiang Hai was a savvy person who only claimed that the salary given to him by the commune was 10 yuan. Every month, the family who teaches five dollars to the family every month, and from time to time also takes money back from the old lady for various reasons. Counting it, the amount of money saved by the small family of Erfang has been a big number these years.

According to what they thought the profitability of the river was far behind them.

But Wang Xuemei didn't think so much. She was so proud and indulgent that she couldn't look down on Wei Nuo's sister-in-law. Now that she knows the other's life is about to get better, where can she bear it?

Especially before the big house earned money, it was all handed over to the grandfather, and what was the difference between the money handed over to the in-laws and the hands directly to them. Now the days of watching the big room are better, for Wang Xuemei Say, it hurts as much as her flesh.

"It's the right way to do some small business, that is, no one is in charge of catching the market now. Think about the people who were caught in the market a few years ago.

Jiang Hai and his daughter-in-law had different ideas. When they heard that their elder brother was doing this kind of business, he was very disappointed: "You talk to your sister-in-law tomorrow, let the elder brother converge a little, otherwise the policy will change, he will suffer, and now we Although they were separated, they were still a family after all. He had an accident and even we must eat and hang."

Jiang Hai was not worried about the big-headed big brother. He was worried that the other party's capitalist road would affect his political elements and destroy his future.

"There is nothing to worry about. So many people in our commune have rushed to the big set, and no one from the patrol has stopped you. You still don't understand what I want to say. Think about it. I didn’t say that he would make a straw book. He earns some credits every day. Does he mean that he doesn’t want everyone to live a good life? Besides, he is so patient. What was the 60-odd dollars that he owed to the hospital for treatment? It can be paid off in half a year, but he hides and hides, he doesn’t say it, he makes the father and mother preside over the separation, and also makes us single-hearted and mean-spirited to the reputation of the elder brother, you said that your elder brother is acting like a pig Tiger, did it on purpose."

Wang Xuemei felt more and more like this. At this moment, in her heart, Jiangliu was no longer the humble and honest idiot, but a step by step, insidious and cunning villain.

"What do you think, he can have that brain, if he can figure it out, now my father and mother can favor me?"

The eldest son's identity is the trump card in the country. If Jiangliu is smarter and can speak more, father and mother will not be too partial even if they are partial, because he is too stupid, too honest, and Jianghai has a good day now. Ever.

Therefore, Brother Jiang was never stupid.

"You are kind-hearted and always think about your elder brother. Anyway, I don't think the couple is honest."

Wang Xuemei muttered: "If it doesn't work, I'm still not reconciled. When we separated, the two old men put all the pressure of pension on us, but now he can make money, and at least score half of the maintenance responsibility. , I have to find time to talk to my father and mother."

Anyway, Wang Xuemei just felt that she was losing money, so she couldn't be reconciled.

After listening to Wang Xuemei, Jiang Hai was silent.

Because he also felt that he was losing money, and the ordinary people are the eldest elders, how come he turned it around, if his wife can persuade his father and mother to find the big brother, according to the brother's filial piety, I'm afraid I can really do it.

He also has two sons. The family has a heavy burden. If you want to come to the elder brother, you can be considerate.

The couple's night talk ended, but the people on the team's discussion about the river flow intensified.

This is how human nature is. When you are in difficulty, he is not stingy with mercy and help, but when your life is suddenly elevated, far more than those who have mercy on you to help you, they can't help being jealous.

It's not that it's not kindness, but because human beings are a polyhedron, and there is no way to separate pure black and white.

Living in the same circle, Jiang Liu knew in his heart that after the news of his earning money spread, his life would definitely fall into restlessness again, but he had long thought about how to deal with it.

For him, the bazaar market is still too limited, and one person can complete all the weaving tasks independently, and the items that can be woven every day are also limited. How can we legally and reasonably expand the production scale and expand the sales market. Is the top priority.

*****

"Comrade, who is the person who can make the decision here?"

Jiang Liu asked the captain Guan Daniu to open a certificate, and then took his favorite masterpiece and came to the city.

He inquired about the largest department store in the city, and then went to a counter specializing in daily necessities. He looked at his face, with a handsome look, and asked the salesperson at the counter with a little shyness.

"What are you doing with our manager?"

The young salesperson was very friendly and did not look down on him because of the patch on Jiangliu's clothes.

"I'm a member of the Red Star Production Team in Taifeng County. Our fields are barren and we are off the back of the commune every year when we pay food. Our team members feel ashamed of the country and the party's support and help for our farmers. Can we turn a plant called thatch there into a treasure, generate income for the commune, and generate income for the country."

Jiang Liu stumbled when he talked. There seemed to be a kind of embarrassment about the neat and tidy shopping mall that he was in at the moment, but when he said that he was generating income for the country, his eyes suddenly became glorious. The expression of the hopeless match, the eager light almost blinded the salesperson's eyes.

"Look, this is made by the members of my team. It's beautiful and strong. It can be used to hold small things such as cream, and it can be used to hold clothes. The captain asked me to come over and ask you. If you don’t accept these things, our production team can sign a long-term supply contract with you."

Jiang Liu's attitude was so sincere that the young salesperson was at a loss.

"Wait, I have to ask our manager to ask."

An ordinary small salesperson can't make up her mind about this matter. After thinking about it, she offered to help Jiangliu to find the manager.

"Thank you, comrade, you are such a warm-hearted comrade."

Jiang Liu bowed and thanked again and again, the shameful young salesperson's pace was much faster.

"Eh, this country comrade, can you show me what you have in your hand?"

After the young salesperson left, some customers who had been preparing to buy at the counter set their sights on a few items pulled out of the river, and began to negotiate prices with him.

When the department store manager came over, he saw this scene.
