Chapter 125 The Rumor Becomes True

Chapter 125 The Rumor Becomes True
Big Dog took a look at Gu Wan and then carefully quoted the price: "For small stools like those, one dollar each, and the table is a little more expensive, about five dollars."

Villagers basically don’t buy these. They are all farmers and they all do these jobs to some extent.

There are bamboos everywhere on the mountain, and they are free of cost, basically just requiring a bit of effort.

On the contrary, labor is the least valuable in the countryside.

"Um, Brother Jianshe."

After racking his brains, Gu Wan finally remembered that this man's full name was Zhao Jianshe, and his younger brother was Zhao Jianjun, which were generally the names used in the countryside.

Zhao Jianshe is a good friend of her brother, so Gu Wan should call him brother. She can't call him dog brother, right?

"Brother Jianshe, just tell me the normal market price. I know it takes a lot of effort to make these things."

Big Dog was very nervous. Could it be that Gu Lin’s sister thought it was too expensive?

Gritting his teeth, the big dog said directly: "You can save two cents on each item, but if it's more, it really won't work."

It is really tiring for grandpa to do these things. There are scars all over his hands, and sometimes Big Dog and Second Dog feel sad when they see them.

Children from poor families have to grow up early. They mature prematurely and feel that they are useless and cannot take care of their grandfather.

Gu Wan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "No, I don't think it's expensive. I think it takes a lot of time and skill to make these things. The price you gave is too low, and it's actually a waste of grandpa's hard work.

How about this, at that price, can you give me 10 of each? And 10 small baskets that are big enough to hold the vegetables, too.”

The main thing is to test the waters first. A small stool that costs one dollar can be priced at 25 yuan in the mall. As for the small table, 45 yuan is actually not expensive.

Alas, although saving people is a good thing, Gu Wan still feels heartbroken every time he thinks about the fact that he has become a pauper now.

Big Dog, no, Zhao Jianshe was very shocked: "You don't need to buy so much, right?"

He suspected that the other party deliberately wanted to take care of his grandfather. He also always heard Gu Lin say that his sister was a beautiful and kind-hearted fairy.

He likes to help others the most, like Uncle Zhang. Now everyone in the village knows that it was Gu Wan who helped Uncle Zhang's family.

Uncle Zhang is still taking medicine, but everyone can tell at a glance that she is already better. She is no longer out of breath when she walks faster.

I would also go to work with the villagers, although I did the easiest work and could only earn about five work points a day.

But as everyone knew, Uncle Zhang was in poor health and basically never went out, he stayed at home recuperating.

Zhao Jianshe had reason to suspect that Gu Wan's sister was also kind-hearted, but his grandfather taught him and his brother to be conscientious.

"Sister, it's useless to buy too much."

Another person who took the initiative to persuade buyers to buy less. Gu Wan smiled. In fact, these simple and kind people deserve a better life.

"I have a few friends who like things like this, and I want to give it to them."

This reason is absolutely tenable. Even if she is back now, she lived in the provincial capital compound for 18 years. Who says she can't have a few close friends?

Anyway, Gu Wan knew that her image in the Red Flag Brigade was very good and prestigious enough, and the reasons she gave were all convincing.

Now Big Dog is really happy. If Grandpa knew that he could earn so much, he would also be very happy.

It was settled like that. Gu Wan was originally prepared to pay the deposit, but Da Gouzi refused to accept it no matter what.

He said that when he returned he would go up the mountain to cut bamboo and let his grandfather start making it.

Gu Wan told him not to rush and to take it slow so as not to overwork the old man.

Her family was living better and better, and her work was going very smoothly, but in terms of her relationship - she had agreed to let Qi Bin try it out for the time being, but due to a dark psychology, Gu Wan didn't want to make it public yet.

The main thing is that the person she mentioned is really just a person, and it is normal to change someone if he or she is not suitable.

But Gu Wan knew that for people of this generation, being in a relationship was basically the same as getting engaged and married. If you later said that it was not suitable and wanted to break up, others would doubt your character.

At the moment, she doesn't want to gamble her life on this, so Gu Wan's attitude is not to tell her family for the time being.

Qi Bin was already very happy with the current progress and didn't care about anything else. He just thought about being nice to Wanwan every day.

Let’s talk about the rest later. In fact, Qi Bin knows very well that his parents will never agree with him and Wanwan.

So what he has to do now is to make himself stronger. Only his own strength will be enough to prevent others from controlling him.

At that time, who he wants to marry will be entirely his own problem.

At the same time, Qi Binren believed that the problem that had been delayed before should be solved.

Qi Bin used to not care about it. He just unilaterally gave up on the man called "Dad" and it was enough for him to not care about him anymore.

Now it seems that this is not enough.

Over the years, his mother has been staying at home and relying on men, so as long as his father objects, his mother will definitely not agree.

In fact, Wanwan is a good girl, and Qi Bin believes that his mother will like her after she really gets to know her.

Before that, the relationship between his parents should be severed, and to achieve this goal, Qi Yanming's true face must be exposed.

But Qi Bin didn't want to hurt his mother's feelings, and because of various unclear situations in recent years, his grandfather's health was poor and he had been in a semi-retired state.

Qi Bin didn't want the old man to worry about the younger generation's affairs, so he thought about doing things on his own.

So Qi Bin also started to become busy, but even if he went out, he would try his best to come back every day to meet Gu Wan.

Being able to see the girl he likes every day makes life more meaningful, and this way Qi Bin will be more motivated to work harder.

There have always been rumors in the commune that Secretary Zheng is about to retire, but it has always been just a rumor.

Then the rumors soon became true. Secretary Zheng officially retired, but he and his wife could still continue to live in the small courtyard allocated to him by the commune.

Every plant and tree in the yard was taken care of by his wife herself. The old couple was used to living here, so they did not agree to let their daughter-in-law move to the county town to live with them.

Then, a new deputy secretary of the commune took office, and Gu Wan was very surprised when he saw him for the first time.

She was a middle-aged woman in her forties, with dignified facial features. She wore a white Dacron shirt on the upper body and black Dacron trousers on the lower body.

There is not a single wrinkle on the clothes and the whole person looks neat and tidy.

It’s not that Gu Wan looks down on women, but it’s a current social phenomenon that basically there are very few female leaders in the officialdom.

At most, they are the women's director of the street office, the director of the Women's Federation, etc. For example, the deputy secretary of the commune is a female comrade. This is the first time Gu Wan has seen one since coming here.

And after seeing this female lesbian, the first feeling that came to Gu Wan's mind was:

This deputy secretary must come from an unusual family.

Although "Dacron" has appeared since the early 1960s, it was produced in small batches for export and foreign exchange earnings, and only a small amount was exported and sold domestically in a few major cities.

You have to queue up for at least a few hours to buy a piece of Dacron clothing, and the key is that the clothing is very expensive.
