The rise of the poor

Chapter 54 The Rag Head Business

Until he walked out of the store with 130 wen in his arms, Chen Shi couldn't believe that the rags that his youngest son picked up without spending money actually made him 60 wen.This kind of purse takes less time to sew than the purse that I usually make.

The little aunt and the eldest aunt asked about the origin of Chen's purse as soon as they went out. Chen had a habit of showing off, so he sold his youngest son on the spot. He praised that the youngest son looked at the rags in the cloth shop and picked it up. Basket went home, because where did his father buy cloth, they gave him away without asking for money.

When the little aunt heard the words, her eyes were straight, and she urged us to go to the cloth shop to pick up rags.The aunt did her best and walked towards the cloth shop.

Several sisters-in-law walked quickly to the cloth shop, and when they reached the cloth shop, they asked the shop assistant.

"Oh, you also want rags, but you are late. Someone just bought all the nearest rags for two cents." The shop assistant replied indifferently.

I'm late?
Was taken first?
The little aunt and the eldest aunt were eclipsed and mournful, as if all the silver in the hands was gone.

It doesn't matter to Mrs. Chen. The rags that Zhu Ping'an picked up last time still had more than half of the basket, enough to sew dozens of purses.This time, the rag head has no effect or not, and it will be fine to pick it up next time.

However, Mr. Chen ignored the business mind of the shop assistant. The shop assistant saw that someone spent two cents to buy a rag head, and someone came to ask after a while. It seems that this rag head is also useful, and he wants to save it next time. The cloth head has to raise the price well.

The little aunt and the eldest aunt went to see Father Zhu and Uncle Zhu in dejection to see how much the wild boars sold for.Halfway through, I saw Zhu Ping'an, a chubby little chubby man who was carrying a large basket of rags and giggling.The little aunt and the eldest aunt were stunned. It turned out that it was She'er who bought the rag head.

Chen's eyes suddenly lit up. The stinky boy is so good, but my son has the brain. He spent two cents to buy such a big rag head. Jue's Zhu Ping'an and Zhu Pingchuan were not carrying a basket of rags, but a basket of copper coins.

"She'er, why are you making so many rags? Go back and give half of it to aunt." The little aunt didn't feel embarrassed at all, she just wanted half of it.

The eldest aunt was not far behind, and she also asked for half of her speech.

Zhu Ping'an was very speechless, and you are so embarrassed, half of each person, then my mother has no rags.

"No, I'll go back and sell it to my mother to make money to marry a daughter-in-law." Zhu Ping'an relied on being a child, shaking his head like a rattle, and used the excuse of saving money to marry a daughter-in-law.

The little aunt and the eldest aunt also remembered the last New Year's money, but the Chen family couldn't do anything about him.

"Even your mother, do you have to sell it?" The little aunt asked loudly in surprise.

Zhu Pingan nodded.

"Then you can sell it to us too. You spent two cents from the cloth shop, so let's go, aunt gives you four cents, and you give it to aunt." The little four aunt rolled her eyes and immediately opened her mouth to seduce Said, "You can make two cents when you sell it, don't be too cost-effective."

"She'er, the aunt will give you five wen, you can give it to the aunt." The aunt was not to be outdone.

Chen Shi was a little anxious, for fear that Zhu Ping'an would agree when his mind was hot.

You really know how to settle accounts, but Zhu Ping'an ignored it, but turned around and raised his head to ask Mrs. Chen, "Mother, how much did you sell for a purse made of rags."

"Twenty cents, usually only ten cents." Chen was very excited.

"Oh, two rags can make a purse, I'll sell you two rags for 5 cents, who made me know you so well. Mother, you too. It's not that I want to make money, besides marrying My daughter-in-law also has to buy paper and Momeng school." Zhu Ping'an counted for a long time with his fingers crossed, raised his head, and said solemnly to the little aunt and the aunt.

Two pieces of rags cost 5 cents!The little aunt and the eldest aunt immediately opened their mouths. That big basket of rags must have thousands of pieces of rags. If you buy it for two cents, you will sell it hundreds of times!Too greedy.

This stinky brat is really out of luck, if only he had discovered the usefulness of the rag head earlier.The little aunt and the eldest aunt couldn't help thinking, they didn't think that Zhu Ping'an had a brain, they just thought that Zhu Ping'an had shit luck.

Chen Shi was originally happy, but when he heard Zhu Ping'an say that he would also accept the money, he immediately lowered his face.

"I asked you to ask for money for your mother, I'll let you." Mrs. Chen went up and grabbed Zhu Ping'an, pressed it on her leg and threatened to spank her.

"Okay, I won't charge you any more, I won't charge you any more." Zhu Ping'an quickly surrendered. He didn't want to accept Chen's money, he just told the little aunt and aunt.

Chen's can use the method of scaring and spanking to get Zhu Ping'an into submission, but the little aunt and the eldest aunt cannot use this method.But it was even more reluctant to ask them to spend 5 cents to buy two pieces of rags, especially knowing that Zhu Ping's big back basket of rags only cost 2 cents in total.

Although Chen shi really wanted to use all this big backpack by himself, but he also knew that he couldn't be too greedy, otherwise what would happen to the relationship between his wife and wife.Besides, if you are so big, you will have to sew until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse to finish it.Moreover, a gentleman loves money in a proper way, how can he pay attention to his own family.

"Your aunt and the third and fourth aunts can't collect money either." Mrs. Chen didn't let go of Zhu Ping'an, and continued to press it on her lap, bluffing.

The aunt and the others immediately cast a grateful look at Chen.

"No, I still have to save money to marry a wife."

Zhu Ping'an was pressed by Chen's lap, and he didn't let go. Anyway, he was a child, and this age was the age to protect things.

"Let you save, let you save."

When her ass is older, she needs to save money to marry a daughter-in-law. Mrs. Chen is funny and angry, and she slaps Zhu Ping'an's little ass twice.

"Pain." Zhu Ping'an groaned.

"Do you want any more money?" Chen shi stopped and asked.

"I don't want it, I don't want it at all." Zhu Ping'an shouted again and again, and just now he wanted to understand, so the big aunt and the little aunt were reluctant to spend 5 cents to buy two pieces, and there were so many Rag cloth head, just rely on the mother, the aunt and the sister-in-law to finish it for a while.Collecting money for one's own family is not a good reputation in this era, nor is it a modern day when brothers and sisters clearly settle accounts.

It's better to get a good reputation and use them closely. They can't use it up anyway, so why are you focusing on your own family.There are so many women in the village who are good at needlework. Why don’t I process the excess rags for them, and then collect them in a purse of 10 wen. They don’t need to produce raw materials, they can make the same money as they used to. Need to run to town, definitely willing.

Seeing that Zhu Ping'an lost his way, Chen shi showed a satisfied smile.The aunt and the others also smiled, and they were very grateful to Chen Shi.

The whole family is happy.
