Chapter 24 Continue to be squeezed

When he returned to the Li family rice shop, the oil lamp was still on, and the boss's wife had already gone to bed. After Li Yutian finished his homework, he was putting the account book in front of the oil lamp. Wang Jin greeted him and asked the slightly drunk Erdan to go to bed first. He went to the yard to draw a basin of well water, washed his face and woke him up for a while, and then he arrived at the account room.

"Young Master, aren't you finished today's business yet?"

When Mr. Li saw Wang Jin, he looked overjoyed and hurriedly pushed the things at hand: "Wang Jin, you are back, it's just right. You should do this, I'm having a headache."

Wang Jin nodded with a smile, and accepted the account and saw that Mr. Li was exhausted and advised, "I'll leave this here to me. You'd better go to bed early. Are you going to school tomorrow?"

Li Yutian stretched his waist and sighed with emotion: "That's thank you for your hard work, Baosen, I don't know when my father will come back?"

Wang Jin sat down and smiled, "It's not that simple to talk about business. Once the business is completed, you have to contact the transport vehicles, horses and steamers. There are many things in between. If you can't hurry, you will know when you get home in the future."

Li Yutian waved his hand and said with a look of resistance: "I am not in charge of the family, I will go to bed first." As he said that, he stood up and walked out. When he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and asked in a low voice as if he had remembered something, "Well, the Qian family hasn't come to cause trouble, right?"

Wang Jin shook his head, and Young Master Li left easily.

Looking at the figure of Mr. Li leaving, he whispered and buried himself in the account book. Although he heard the problem in Mr. Li's words and had some thoughts in his mind, after all, this is the Li family's business, and it's over. There is no need to be too serious. Don't you want to take over the family business and rebel?

Li Fugui's character is a little worse, but the boss's wife really had nothing to say to him. She just kept up late and had to get out today's cash journal for the amount of money given to him tonight. She calmed down and did it for more than two hours. After the account book was completed, he returned to the "employee dormitory".

As the small grain merchants took action, the big grain merchants could no longer sit still. The rice prices in Anqing City were falling steadily. Perhaps the big grain merchants also saw that each load of eight liang was almost done, and something would happen if they stock up. There was a peasant "uprising" broke out in northern Anhui.

This is the provincial capital. Although there will be no such situation as a "peasant uprising", looting is still possible. When Wang Ji Mi Pu opened the market yesterday, he was snatched by a group of angry consumers. He did not earn a penny of money, but lost a lot of food. When they found the "public security" to arrest people, they were treated as a "meal ticket".

Anyway, you can make a lot of money, so why bother to spend your own scenic spots? Didn’t you see that Li Fugui’s old turtle is both rich and famous? They are all decent silver, so we can’t be too far away by him, right?

Li Fugui returned from Jiangsu when the rice prices in Anhui Province were steadily falling. He even pulled back a lot of new rice with the ship. When he came back, he found that Wang Jin was in charge of the shop, and his mood suddenly became complicated.

"Boss, you are back." Wang Jinyi and Li Fugui came back, sighed in his heart and said that the good days have come to an end. He quickly greeted him with a smile on his waist and smiled.

"Where is thriving?" Li Fugui ignored him and looked around and asked.

Wang Jin replied carefully: "Young master went to school early in the morning."

"This kid is really worry-free!" Li Fugui shook his head and sighed, and turned around and ordered: "Jinzhu, let Wang Jin, the second order close the door and close, you go and bring back the food on the dock."

Wang Jin felt unhappy when he heard this. He thought he was so stingy. How much money did you ask for a coolie to pull Mila back? Is it because of how much money to close it?

There is no way, the boss of the world is the biggest, Wang Jin shouted to the crowd lined up outside: "Everyone, I'm so sorry. New rice will be launched tomorrow. The business will be closed for a long time today. Please support us, new and old customers. The top 20 will enjoy a 20% discount on our store and participate in our store's passion. The lottery activities are rich in prizes and many opportunities. Don't miss it."

Li Fugui, who was sitting on the chair, heard this and sprayed the tea he had just swallowed out of his nostrils. He coughed continuously and finally calmed down the gold, glared at Wang Jin and said, "What are you doing?"

Li Fugui didn't know that during the days he went to Jiangsu, Wang Jin had the maximum operating rights in addition to financial power in the store. Faced with increasingly fierce market competition, today, in order to attract customers, he specially developed the idea of ​​selling prizes and firmly controlled the market share. He even shamelessly put forward the slogan "Where do you need to buy grain, the best discount for Lijia rice shop."

These ‘new concepts’ made Li Fugui feel heartbroken with his dry goods for a long time: “This is all good salty goods!”

He followed He Jinzhu to the pier, looked at the pile of grain like a hill on the pier, and was stunned, and asked He Jinzhu: "Are we the only three of us going to do so much food?"

He Jinzhu nodded naturally: "Not much, I'll finish it after a few trips."

My grass, Wang Jin looked at the layers of stone steps and sweated coldly, and was so angry that he wanted to curse. At this time, He Jinzhu patted his shoulder and urged: "Do it quickly, otherwise you will not finish it today."

Next, Wang Jin truly experienced the hardships of the working people in the old society for the first time. Every step he took was very difficult with rice bags on his back, like a mountain. It was fine at first, but the heavier he got to the back, almost making him breathless. When did he suffer such hardships? Every step he took would keep cursing Li Fugui, the guy who was "for wealth and kindness", as if he could persevere for a longer time.

He Jinzhu stood at the berth and directed Wang Jin. Erdan first unloaded the rice from the boat. This ship would cost more than one day for one more time, and the same was true for the dock, so it had to be "quickly unloaded", "quickly loaded", and "quickly transported". It took most of the day to unload so many meters from the boat. Wang Jin was so tired that he rolled his eyes.

He really couldn't hold on and sat on the steps and was reluctant to stand up: "I said Jinzhu, can you make some water to drink? And there are so many meters, do you see if you want to hire someone to help, otherwise you will definitely not finish it today!"

"I'll help you scoop the water. As for hiring someone..." He Jinzhu patted his pocket helplessly, and refused apologetically: "The boss didn't ask me to hire someone, nor did he give me money. Let's do it together in a while."
