Chapter 216 Agreed

When Lan Xin and the other two arrived at Lao Lan's house, as soon as they entered the yard, they saw bundles of beans piled up like small mountains and drying in the thatched shed outside the house. The thick thatch blocked out all the sunlight, and the beans underneath seemed to have been sprinkled with a little water. They looked moist, tender green and crispy, not to mention how fresh they were.

Old Mrs. Lan was chatting with two or three aunts from the village in the thatched hut. To be precise, these two people forced her to chat. While talking, they did not forget to look at the door. When they saw Lan Xin come in, their eyes lit up.

Wrinkles appeared on his tanned face, and he smiled brightly. He greeted Lan Xin hastily, with such enthusiasm.

"Hey, Lan Xin, you're back. Have you eaten?"

"Lan Xin, there are a few bowls of noodles cooking in the kitchen. Let's go in and eat some first." Old Mrs. Lan didn't react as quickly as the others. She waited until they finished speaking before she spoke.

Lan Xin walked into the yard and headed straight for the thatched shed. She looked into Old Lady Lan's eyes and said with a smile, "I've eaten. Have you eaten?"

"Mom, are Yingying and Yueyue obedient? Did they make trouble for you?"

Old Lady Lan smiled and shook her head, saying, "The two children are very well behaved. They are taking a nap at noon now."

This was Lan Xin's strong requirement. Otherwise, which child of this age would be willing to take a nap? No matter how hot the sun was outside at noon, they would still climb up and down and play.

It was only after Lan Xin gave them some time that the two children developed the habit of taking a half-hour nap like adults. Now they don’t need Lan Xin to remind them, they go to bed on their own after lunch.

Lan Xin was relieved to hear that the two children were obedient, because she still had a lot of work to do in the afternoon.

When Xie Shaowu and his nephew Xie Yaozu came in, the aunts in the thatched hut were obviously a little restrained. After all, they were not very familiar with each other and their identities were different.

But people who are good at socializing are always good. After a while, they started chatting. At this time, an aunt crossed her hands nervously and asked Lan Xin with an expectant look,

"Lan Xin, you called us this morning and told us to continue picking 100 kilograms of beans. Does this mean that all the beans we picked this morning have been sold?"

The aunts who were originally wondering whether the two young men were married immediately shut their mouths and listened quietly to Lan Xin's reply. She just nodded and said,

"Yes, the 100 kilograms of beans have all been sold, and we've also sold several hundred kilograms of other vegetables. We'll do a count this afternoon and see which vegetable field to pick them from and send them to the city tomorrow morning."

Lan Xin's words made the aunts look surprised. They laughed and clapped, and were so excited.

Lan Xin is really amazing. Thinking of her previous plan, the aunts only have one feeling in their hearts: it’s settled! It’s settled!!

Looking at them, Lan Xin couldn't help thinking that in the afternoon, there would definitely be as many people as in the morning. It seemed that they couldn't handle it with just a few people, not to mention that Lan Xin had to go to the station to pick up Li Jia later. Looking at the aunts in front of her who were chattering excitedly and loudly, Lan Xin had an idea in her mind.

It was getting late, so she didn't waste time and said, "Aunt, who has time this afternoon? The three of us are too busy, so we need someone to help us sell the goods."

Well, looking at these aunts who love to gossip and can chat with anyone, Lan Xin thought that this might be a good choice. Maybe she could find a client while chatting?

"Sell, sell vegetables?"

One of them was the fat aunt who had been talking to Lan Xin before. Actually, the fat aunt was not fat. There were not many fat people in the countryside these days. The fat aunt just had all the fat on her face. Her body was normal, but she had a fat face.

It seems that she was born with a cold white skin physique, and her skin is light wheat color, which makes her fat face look particularly kind, and she is a person who is easy to get along with. Moreover, Aunt Fat also likes to joke and gossip with others, and as they chatted, they called her Aunt Fat and Aunt Fat.

This was a good name these days, as it meant that one could only be fat if their family was rich and well-off, so Aunt Fat happily accepted this name.

"It's selling vegetables, but not the traditional way. Just follow my instructions." Lan Xin explained. She also valued Aunt Pang's friendliness.

"Okay, I just happen to have nothing to do this afternoon." Auntie Pang was eager to try. As for the new way of selling vegetables, Lan Xin had already told them about it. She didn't know whether it was traditional or not, after all, she had never sold vegetables before.

The other two aunts looked at each other, one of them was timid and couldn't get over it, so she refused to agree. But Aunt Fat pulled the other aunt and said a few words, and the other aunt nodded and agreed just like Aunt Fat.

Then Aunt Fat smiled and rubbed her hands as she walked in front of Lan Xin. If Aunt Fat was a little darker, or her face was not so smooth, with pits and holes, she would have looked like an unpleasant, shabby face with a lot of fat on it.

But Auntie Fatty is not like that. She smiles and looks silly, which makes people feel disgusted. Auntie Fatty is very good at taking advantage of this. "Lan Xin, since we are helping to sell vegetables, should we be given priority in selling our vegetables?"

If you help sell vegetables together, you will put in different efforts than other villagers, so you should have some benefits. But it is not easy to make a rule to give priority in selling vegetables. After all, the form has been filled out. If you say one thing and I say another and you want priority, how can we manage them later?

Finally, Lan Xin, Xie Shaowu, Xie Yaozu and others discussed it and decided to each give 60 cents a day to help.

Xie Yaozu added sweetly: "With the help of the two sisters, if more customers order our dishes, wouldn't it speed up the consumption of the vegetables in the village and make more money?"

Auntie Fatty and the others discussed it and realized that this was indeed the case. Otherwise, how many customers could these young people attract? If there were not many vegetables to sell, and each family only picked a few vegetables, it would take a long time for them to get their turn. And they still got paid.

It’s just a little bit...

Aunt Fat and the other woman were muttering to themselves.

This is not Lan Xin's discrimination. They are now selling vegetables, and they make a few cents per pound. It is incomparable to Lan Xin's profitable hair band business and exclusive tea egg business. Moreover, Lan Xin ate the meat herself and wanted to give the villagers some soup and make money with them.

Now it's a joint business of Xie Shaowu and other three people. Xie Shaowu and Xie Yaozu are not from Lanjia Village, so how could they share the profits with people from Lanjia Village?

But sixty cents a day, thirty cents for half a day's work is quite rare. Didn't you see the regretful and envious expression on the face of the other aunt who refused?
