After being abandoned by the educated youth, I became rich in the 80s

Chapter 152 Walking to Sell

"Is this true? Lan Xin, you are not kidding me, are you?" Ma Cuihua was confused and hurriedly sought confirmation.

She really couldn't believe that such a good job was given to her. How could she deserve it?

Lan Xin looked at her with a smile: "Can I still lie to you?"

At this moment, Lan Xin was as compassionate as a living Bodhisattva in the eyes of Ma Cuihua's family.

"But can you control your strength? Will you crush the eggs?"

"No, no." Hearing that she could really get the job, Ma Cuihua was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. She shook her head and assured, "I can control my strength. I will definitely not break the eggs."

"That's good. Come to my house at six o'clock tomorrow morning and try it for a day to see if it's suitable for you. Don't worry, I'll start paying you tomorrow." Lan Xin said.

"Hey, hey, okay." Ma Cuihua didn't know what to say. She nodded quickly and finally grabbed a handful of bitter melon in Zhang Changshan's arms and handed it to Lan Xin enthusiastically.

"I, I, I, Lan Xin, I really thank you so much. I don't know how to repay you. Take this vegetable back and eat it. It's freshly picked. I hope you don't mind it."

Looking at the large handful of green vegetables, Lan Xin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No, no, we have vegetables at home too, we can't finish the extra, just keep it for yourself, can you finish so much?"

"We can finish it." Ma Cuihua smiled awkwardly. "It's so hot, I can't eat much anyway. I cooked more vegetables for dinner. I'm sorry to embarrass you."

Lan Xin was shocked. How could this dish be filling and nutritious if eaten as a meal?

Ma Cuihua came to the door early the next morning, which was ten minutes earlier than the agreed time of six o'clock.

She stood awkwardly in front of Lan Xin, wearing clothes with relatively few patches, which were clean inside and out. She smiled dryly and said, "I don't have a clock at home. After I finished my housework, I came here when I thought it was about time. Didn't that bother you?"

"No, no." Lan Xin shook her head and smiled, "It's still early, let's finish early and rest early."

"Okay!" Ma Cuihua responded very straightforwardly. She followed Lan Xin's actions and entered the thatched hut. She was surprised to see so much soda and eggs inside.

These eggs were delivered by Yang Zhengxin yesterday afternoon on a donkey cart. There were more than 2,000 eggs, filling the cart to the brim.

But this quantity is not enough for Lan Xin and her team to sell in two days.

At that time, Yang Zhengxin had a smile on his face and his eyes were full of excitement. "You need so many eggs. You can buy all the eggs from my chicken farm. We dare not sell them in the market. Otherwise, I am afraid that we will not be able to supply you with eggs."

Although he was joking, if the business could continue to be so good, the eggs from Yang Zhengxin's chicken farm would not be enough for Lan Xin to consume. He only has more than 500 chickens, and it is just a small chicken farm. More than 400 eggs a day is already the limit.

The reason why Lan Xin can be supplied with so many tea eggs now is because there are enough of them stored before. If all these eggs were consumed, the chicken chrysanthemums in the chicken farm would not be enough for Lan Xin even if they were rotten.

But let's talk about this later. The busy farming season will start in two days, and Lan Qing and the others will have to work in the fields. Now they are eager to make money while they have time, but they will definitely stop and work in the fields when the busy farming season starts. By then, even if there are so many tea eggs, there won't be enough manpower to sell them.

Anyway, Lan Xin has let it go and advised Yang Zhengxin and others in the same way.

After hearing this, Yang Zhengxin's expression became complicated, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Ma Cuihua was indeed a person who looked rough but was careful, just as Lan Xin had observed. The pig-bristle brush moved flexibly in her hands, and she scrubbed the eggs in her hands with just the right amount of force, washing them cleanly without any chicken droppings or mud, and her movements were quick.

Lan Xin's previous worry about accidentally crushing the eggs did not happen at all.

With Ma Cuihua's help, Lan Xin had a particularly relaxing morning this morning.

Ma Cuihua was a very active person. She worked very efficiently and quickly, which even stunned Lan Xin.

After making the soda and cooking the tea eggs, Ma Cuihua started to fold paper bags with oil paper.

This morning, not only Ma Cuihua arrived early, but Lan Yingjie also came early. When he saw the paper bag on the side, he washed his hands and started to fold it.

After Chen Baoni and the others came over, the tea eggs were cooked and ready to be served. It was then that Lan Xin realized that Lan Yingjie didn't have a bicycle and asked quickly.

"How do you go to the city if you don't have a bicycle?" Lan Xin frowned. The cost of a minibus trip to the city is not small. It is definitely not cost-effective to spend money like this for one or two days.

In addition, I need to walk around the city to sell the goods, which is very inconvenient without a bicycle.

Lan Yingjie smiled a little awkwardly. He changed into a clean set of clothes with few patches. Even his hair seemed to have been roughly trimmed with scissors overnight. It looked very rough, but obviously much tidier.

He lowered his head, twisted his hands together, and said a little embarrassedly: "I ran all night yesterday, and no one was willing to lend me a bicycle."

After saying this, Lan Yingjie seemed to be afraid that Lan Xin would reject him and stop him from continuing to sell tea eggs, so he quickly said, "Don't worry, Sister Lan Xin, I can run if I don't have a bicycle. The distance from the village to the city is not far, and if I run all the way there, the tea eggs won't go bad."

Lan Xin was speechless, then she remembered that in this era, a bicycle is a big item and no one would lend it out casually, especially to Lan Yingjie who has no parents and lives with his grandparents.

Hearing him say this, Lan Xin nodded in agreement and asked, "Can you handle running for two hours every day?"

Hearing Lan Xin's words, Lan Yingjie grinned and said, "Of course, Lan Xi used to walk to school like this before. He knows I can run very fast, so it won't take two hours."

Lan Xi quickly assured him: "Yes, sister, I guarantee that Lan Yingjie really runs very fast, and I can't catch up with him."

"Well done Yingjie, Lan Xin, we country people are not so pampered. We usually walk to the city. I have seen many people carrying loads and walking all the way to the city to sell vegetables. This distance is nothing." Lan Qing and the others also said.

"Okay, okay, if you want to walk to the city, just go ahead. Be careful. You don't have to rush to the factory gate to sell the tea eggs. Go to the place near the hospital and the station that I told you about before, okay?" After Lan Xin gave the instructions, she waved her hand to signal them to start packing the tea eggs.

It was only then that Lan Xin realized that Lan Yingjie was carrying a backpack. She could just put the eggs and the pot in the basket and have him carry it all the way to the city. It would not affect his movements and would not damage anything.

Noticing Lan Xin looking at his backpack, Lan Yingjie said proudly: "This was woven by my grandfather. It's very sturdy and not heavy!"
