Chapter 293 Feeling proud
The people from Liujia Village stood on the shore, muttering quietly: "One penny each, and they even cleaned it and handed it over... Why?"
"Then what does it matter if we raise the price of duck eggs to five cents?"
"Hmph, what's that? Just consider it our lion's asking price. Now, we can't sell it for a penny. Go home and eat shit!"
A middle-aged man left this sentence and went home angrily, while the others continued to stare blankly at the cargo ship on the river.
"..."
At this time, there was a sign on the shore of Liujia Village, which read that duck eggs from Liujia Village were five cents each.
"Throw away that sign now, it makes my face hurt..."
I don't know who said this, but everyone's eyes turned to the sign and their faces felt hot.
After circling Liujia Village, the cargo ship finally docked at the shore of Banyue Village. Half of the villagers stood by the river, happily welcoming Song Anning home.
"A Ning is so awesome! Their poisoning is useless! We didn't delay anything!"
"Those people in Liujia Village are already stupid, hahaha..."
"Come quickly and help carry the duck eggs..."
For a moment, the riverside of Banyue Village was bustling with activity. Song Anning did not want to spoil the fun and shouted to everyone:
"Today I'm treating the entire village to preserved eggs, candy, and a fresh ocean fish for every family!"
"Okay! Then let's thank Aning..."
"Eat some candy! Sister Aning's candy is so delicious..."
While waiting for Chen Guanghui to load the goods in Linhai Town, Song Anning bought a few baskets of fresh sea fish at the dock. The villagers' ducks couldn't die in vain, and he couldn't just not show any appreciation at all.
At first, Chen Guanghui was a little confused, but now he understands the status of his master in the hearts of these villagers.
As an apprentice, he proudly stood at the bow of the boat, directing the boatmen to carry the duck eggs.
After getting off the boat, Song Anning did not forget to tell the villagers: "Don't worry, the duck eggs in the village will still be sold at the previous price.
The new variety of pepper seedlings has also been successfully grown. If we plant more, the price will only go higher.
When the Song family encountered difficulties, everyone stood with us, so we can make money together and piss off those with bad intentions."
"Okay, Aning is the lucky star of our Banyue Village."
"If we work together, Half Moon Village will definitely get better and better."
In the same world, two neighboring villages, the villagers of Banyue Village have happy smiles on their faces, and it feels that the sunshine today is much brighter.
The Liujia Village next door was eerily quiet, and the whole village was filled with a foul smell that had not dissipated until now.
Many women sat at home weeping and cursing the head of the village:
"It's all his fault for coming up with such a bad idea. We've completely offended Banyue Village. Who are we going to sell our duck eggs to in the future?"
"If I had known that the little girl from the Song family was so capable, I wouldn't have raised the price of duck eggs..."
Now, it's too late to say anything...
In Banyue Village, with everyone's help, more than 200 baskets of duck eggs have been neatly placed in the yard of the new house. Wang Qiuyue and Song Juaner took out the pickled preserved eggs and distributed several to each family.
Each child got a handful of candy, and they kept it in their arms and only ate one, not even throwing away the candy wrapper.
After the sea fish were distributed, half a basket was left. Aunt Yuanying, Zhang and Liu sat in the yard to sort the sea fish and other ingredients, preparing to make a good meal to entertain the guests at noon.
Many villagers felt bad about receiving the gifts, so they brought some bacon, eggs, and dried mushrooms from their homes and expressed their gratitude.
Banyue Village and Liujia Village have had a long-standing grudge and have been secretly competing with each other for decades. Last time, when Song Anning helped everyone sell bamboo shoots, they felt that they not only got money, but more importantly, face, and Liujia Village was completely defeated.
This time, they provoked first, and Aning slapped them in the face. Banyue Village finally got its revenge!
Many people gathered in the Song family's courtyard. Someone brought up the matter, and then bursts of laughter broke out among the crowd.
"I heard that the wells in Liujia Village are full of manure and the roads are full of dead fish. You can smell the stench from a long distance away, and now even dogs have to take a detour.
God has mercy on us. It’s so satisfying.”
"Eh? That's not right. Dogs love to eat shit, right? Then we have to go to Liujia Village and have a good meal, hahahaha..."
"I don't know who did it. If I knew, I would definitely give that person a big gift."
When the villagers were talking about this, Song Anning happened to come out of the main house to add tea. Hearing this, she smiled secretly. Zhang glanced at her granddaughter and smiled without saying a word.
She finally knew what Aning did last night. Although what she did was immoral, it was so satisfying. And it was her granddaughter. No one else could think of such a good idea!
The villagers chatted for a while at the Song family's house and expressed many words of gratitude. Knowing that Song An Ning was going to entertain guests, they did not disturb him any further and soon went back home.
In the room, Song Dashan and Song Erhe were talking to Chen Guanghui. From the two old men, he learned that Banyue Village and the Song family could have their current life because of Song An Ning.
"Her father and eldest brother disappeared in the mountains, and her mother has become like that. We are old and can't do anything to help, and there are two little ones at home..."
Buying land, building a house, hiring people to help, growing eggplants and peppers, and pickling duck eggs were all figured out by this girl herself.
To be frank, most of the village is grateful to my Aning now."
After hearing this, Chen Guanghui felt a tightness in his chest. In his heart, his master was an excellent fisherman, a man of courage, insight, broad-mindedness, and ideas...
He also thought that his master had taught him well at home, so he didn't have to worry about household chores and could naturally devote his time to fishing and innovation.
Now it seems that he was wrong. This little girl, who had not yet reached the age of marriage, was carrying too much on her shoulders. If she had encountered so many things, she would definitely have been living a life of idleness and waiting to die, or running away from home.
Invisibly, the master taught him another lesson using her own personal experience.
Seeing his master carrying tea into the house, he looked at the little girl with both heartache and admiration. He also made up his mind that he would start working on the milk tea shop as soon as he returned to Half Moon Village and must not embarrass his master.
Song Anning, who entered the room, noticed that Chen Guanghui was acting strangely. She thought that he felt a little uncomfortable seeing so many strangers, so she suggested taking him out for a walk.
After leaving the house, Chen Guanghui felt a little better, but he was still depressed. He walked quite a distance before saying:
"Master, you must have had a hard time in the past..."
“No, because I’ve never lived a rich life, so I don’t think it’s that big of a deal.
It's just a matter of solving problems if they arise, and finding a way to get through those that can't be solved."
"Haha, that's easy for you to say. But there's one thing I don't understand. Why did Master bring the villagers with him when he was growing peppers?
If it were me, I would definitely buy all the land in the village, find someone to look after the pepper fields, and then hire dozens of servants who signed life contracts to grow peppers.
And the duck eggs in Linhai Town are so cheap, while the duck eggs in the village are still only two cents..."
Hearing him ask this, Song Anning looked at him in surprise, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: He is really a foolish son of a rich family. He doesn't understand this. This is not right...
Later on, it made sense. Chen Guanghui was born into a family of merchants in Linhai Town. Competition was fierce there, and if his family had a profitable business, they would have kept it a secret, fearing their peers would find out and then make a fortune in silence.
At noon, golden sunlight shines on every corner of the village. The big banyan tree at the entrance of the village stands tall like a canopy, and the river not far away is like golden silk, flowing slowly into the distance.
The two of them sat under the big banyan tree to enjoy the coolness. Song Anning pretended to be profound and said:
"Then I will explain it to you, but you must listen carefully..."
She was just joking, but Chen Guanghui took it seriously. He put his hands on his thighs and nodded hurriedly.
"Master, please tell me. I will definitely listen carefully."
Song Anning: This big brother is really honest...
