selling chili peppers in chronology

===========================

Du Xingwei's lower lip was amused by Chen Chen's question. It's not obvious, but he did smile.

"I'm not interested in this anymore, so what else to report?"

"That's right." Chen Chen said with a smile: "Since there is an opportunity, then we must seize the opportunity."

Du Xingwei nodded his head in agreement, and said, "It is imperative to be on guard against others."

Chen Chen blinked, "I've already given the words, now it's up to everyone how to do it."

He is not a simple child, how can he not understand the principle of guarding against others, but he also always agrees with the philosophy that "money can make ghosts go round", when you give out what others want, you are not afraid They will continue to hold on to "envy" and "jealousy".

The two chatted while walking, and then parted ways.

Chen Chen didn't go home directly, but went to find the old man.He came at a coincident time, the whole family put down the dishes, and there were no outsiders.

Chen Chen, Chen Xiangwu and Chen Jiandang entered the house and talked for two or three hours before going back.

Liu Dongxue was making clothes in the small hall. Chen Chen looked around but did not see Chen Jianye. After asking a few words, Liu Dongxue said that he had gone to discuss with Chen Jianjun about buying coal.

Chen Chen felt the coolness, and felt that it was indeed damp and cold.Nowadays, when people stay inside the house, the doors and windows have to be closed tightly, and the wind sneaks in through the gaps in the wooden house, and it is still cool.Coal should indeed be bought.

Soon Chen Jianye came back, and at that moment Chen Chen was lighting the fire and preparing to cook.

Chen Chen asked, and Chen Jianye said that they had already negotiated, the three families would go together, and they would divide after buying.

Chen Chen told him to buy more, don't be as reluctant to use it as in previous years, everyone will have something wrong with the freeze.Anyway, I have money now, so there is no need to save so much.

Chen Jianye agreed.

In fact, the winter in Feng Province is not particularly long, but the humidity is relatively high, and there will be a little drizzle from time to time. When the wind blows, it feels like scraping the bones, and the forehead hurts, which is very difficult.

In previous years, life was the most difficult when tickets were restricted and purchases were restricted, especially cotton, which is a kind of warming material that cannot be bought by money. Rural people spend the winter on thin quilts that have been washed and washed, and a few sets of cotton clothes and trousers. Those who get out of bed wear it, while others sleep in bed all day long. Those who buy more coal light a coal stove to warm themselves, and those who are reluctant to light a coal stove lie on the bed and pass by.

In the past two years, the country began to pay attention to the economy, allowed private individuals to buy and sell, and revitalized the market. Only then did some things in the world gradually increase, and people could buy more things.

However, some things are still in high demand. For example, the cotton they bought, the Chen family went early today, and they didn't hesitate to buy it. Otherwise, they might have already been bought by others.

Cotton coats made of new cotton are sure to be available to everyone this year. If we buy more coal, the winter will be much better than in previous years.

Didn't you see that Chen Bei and Zhou Ping'an, who came back from school in the evening, grinned happily when they saw the cotton padded clothes Liu Dongxue was making?I saw so many things bought at home, and I heard that I was going to buy coal tomorrow, so I was so excited.

Chen Chen cooked the dinner.

The main food is rice with corn grains, and the dishes are twice-cooked pork fried with the sliced ​​pork belly that has not been smoked, and there is also a steamed eggplant and pickled vegetables.

The pork belly is fat, and the knife is covered with a layer of fat when it is sliced ​​in water. Then it is served with fresh peppers and green onions from the yard, and a little bit of the tempeh that Liu Dongxue cooked before. The meat is fragrant and steaming. , the taste is simply not too full.

During the meal, Chen Chen mentioned that he was going to the provincial capital tomorrow. Except for Du Xingwei who heard Liu Dongxue in his ears when he came over, everyone was very surprised.

They were even more surprised when they heard what Chen Chen was going to do in the provincial capital. They didn't even bother to eat, and said: Then their business is going to the provincial capital? !

Chen Chen said with a smile: "What is the provincial capital, you will be happy when you go to the capital."

Chen Bei said, "I haven't been to the provincial capital yet. I heard that the people in the provincial capital are rich and have many good things."

Chen Chen glanced at him, "I'll take you to see it when I have a chance."

Chen Bei nodded solemnly, "Brother, you have to keep your word."

Chen Chen asked back: "When did I not keep my word?"

Chen Bei smiled, "Not really."

Everyone laughed.

They used to think that the county seat was very far away, but now they have been to the county seat, and even some family members run to the county seat every day. After hearing a lot, they feel that the county seat is actually not that far away, and it is actually quite close.

Now Chen Chen is going to the provincial capital to discuss business with people, and what they are talking about is their bad chili business. If they can really negotiate a deal, then wouldn't all their business go to the provincial capital?

Bad chili is sold so far away, it will definitely sell for a lot of money, and maybe I can go and see it in the future.

Well, it is very promising!

With good expectations for the provincial capital, the family happily finished the meal, and the food was clean.

After dinner, Chen Jianye said a few words to Chen Chen, without exception, it was all about his going to the provincial capital, Chen Jianye didn't worry about anything else, he was worried that Chen Chen hadn't been there before, and he was afraid that something might happen on the way, so he told him Be careful even if you are with Du Xingwei.

Chen Chen agreed one by one, and also told them to be more careful at home. Although the style of the village has always been good, and there have never been any rogues, but the tree is big, and their Chen family has been a bit ostentatious during this period, especially when they still have money at home. , have to pay attention.

Chen Jianye said that he knew and would pay attention.

After finishing speaking, Chen Chen went to pack some luggage. He hadn't traveled far, so he really couldn't find a suitable bag for a while. In the end, he had no choice but to put it in a sack.

Before going to bed, Chen Chen thought that if he went to the provincial capital, he could go to the department store and buy a bag or something.

The next day, Chen Chen got up early.

Liu Dongxue got up earlier, and even steamed the steamed buns. Just by smelling the smell in the air, she knew it was white flour steamed buns.

"Aunt Liu, it's too early for you."

"The provincial capital is so far away, how can you do it if you don't prepare some dry food?" Liu Dongxue said, "Don't you still want to pack the chili peppers? You go to pack them first, and the steamed buns will be almost ready when they are packed."

While talking, she went to look at the fire in the stove, her words and expressions were extremely natural.

Chen Chen swallowed back the words "go to the county to buy" that rushed to his throat, afraid that Liu Dongxue would think too much of it, thinking that he was disgusting.

I can only say thank you, "Thank you, Aunt Liu."

Liu Dongxue smiled kindly, "It doesn't take much trouble."

Chen Chen went to get five glass jars that had been scalded with hot water a long time ago, wiped them with a wrung wet towel to clean them, and then opened the jars and filled five jars of bad chili.

Glass jars cannot be packed into sackcloth bags, as they are easily damaged, but there is no foam box, so they are packed in bamboo baskets.

The bamboo baskets were woven by Chen Jianye himself. The baskets are relatively deep and have a small opening. Each glass jar is separated by hay, and a layer of burlap is tied on top to seal it. Cans won't break.

Chen Jianye looked at the already tied bamboo basket and said, "Next time, we can weave a cover here."

Chen Chen thought it was feasible, "You can try it."

After packing up their things, Chen Bei and Zhou Ping'an, who were going to study, also got up.After everyone chatted for a while, Chen Bei and Zhou Ping'an, who had finished chewing the steamed buns, went to school with their school bags on their backs and their lunch.

Liu Dongxue also picked a lot of steamed buns for Chen Chenzhuang.

Chen Chen told her not to pretend so much.

However, Liu Dongxue felt that the journey to the provincial capital was far away, and he had to take a car all the way, and there was no food in the car, so he would definitely not be able to do it without bringing it.

She not only packed steamed buns, but also boiled eggs, packed them separately in small burlap bags, and put them together in big sacks.

Chen Jianye took 100 yuan and handed it to Chen Chen.

Chen Chen didn't want it.

He went to the provincial capital this time to discuss business. It was a business trip. Except for the things he wanted to buy, the other expenses for transportation, accommodation, and food should all be paid from public funds.

Chen Jianye was also stubborn, saying "the way to get rich from a poor family", he forced the money into Chen Chen's hands, "Bring more, if you have money, you can think of a way out."

When Chen Jianye said this, his voice was muffled, and the worry in his eyes was clearly visible.

Seeing him like this, Chen Chen finally took the money, but he didn't take it with him, but hid it at home.

After a long time at home, he finally went out. Chen Jianye and Liu Dongxue took him to the place where he took the bus outside the village. Du Xingwei was already waiting.

Chen Jianye, who has always been not good at words and was more reserved when facing Du Xingwei, took the initiative to speak this time, "Xingwei, Xiaochen has never traveled far, please take care of me along the way."

Hearing this, Chen Chen was helpless and moved.

Du Xingwei glanced at Chen Chen, and replied, "Okay."

When the bus was coming, Chen Ming, Chen Qian and Chen Fen also came over with their bad peppers on their backs. They were going to the county to sell bad peppers, so they happened to be on the same bus.

The three of them all knew that Chen Chen was going to the provincial capital today. Chen Ming was a little worried; Waiting for Chen Chen to come back and tell her what the provincial capital looks like.

The bus came, and five people got on the bus one after another.

There was some noise in the car, and Chen Jianye and Liu Dongxue could be seen standing still through the glass window, and Liu Dongxue told him "be careful on the road" by looking at the mouth shape. Although Chen Jianye didn't say anything, the worry in his eyes couldn't be concealed.

In this situation, the tip of Chen Chen's nose became sour, as if he didn't go to the provincial capital this time, and he would be back in a few days, but went to a farther place in the province, and he might not be able to return for several years.

Chen Chen felt that he was hypocritical, smiled and waved his hand outside the glass window, "Go back."
