The Cute Peasant Wife: Mian Niang - C322 visual field
Everyone looked at Mian Niang, including Lady Song and Minister Li who clearly expressed that they didn’t agree with lying to him earlier. Although they didn’t agree to use this kind of method to deceive people and get their hands on business, they were still shocked and curious to hear from Mian Niang that the Lady Boss already knew the truth.
“How did you know?”
Several elders asked at the same time, causing Mian Niang to unconsciously take a step back.
He scratched his head and said with some embarrassment, “It was a scam, but I think she should have heard about it. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to do it.”
that I am a woman? ”
“Deceived? That was true, Mian Niang’s identity could not be considered as a secret, as long as someone had the heart of the hall, they would know what it was.
“What’s going on?”
Mian Niang explained to the lady boss: “About that and what happened just now, Aunt can only say that it was a joke. The boss lady doesn’t have that kind of thoughts, her character is very upright, we can’t talk nonsense, it would ruin her reputation.”
“No?”
A Yunniang and filigree stared at Mian Niang, wanting to see if she had traces of being reasonable with her words, but they found out that she truly did not think the Lady Boss had that kind of thought.
The filigree smiled slightly. A Yunniang snorted: “You fool, with a person like you, even if the other party had it, I’m afraid you wouldn’t be able to tell.”
Mian Niang was even more confused.
“How could I not tell? Besides, we are only doing business normally, how can you say that they have that intention? “If that’s the case, then there are so many people involved in business. Does anyone have the intention to do so?”
“What kind of bullsh * t is that?! It can’t convince anyone at all!” A Yunniang grabbed onto the person and asked: Let me ask you, she already knows that you are a girl, and she isn’t angry?
“Are you angry?”
“Look at this …”
“I lied to her, how could she not be angry? Forget about her, if it was me, others would lie to me like that. I would definitely be very angry. ”
Mian Niang said honestly: “I’m just angry, so I’m sorry, and that’s good enough.”
A Yunniang could not believe it: “If you compensate him with a gift, then so be it?”
“That’s not it. She was angry. I pretended to leave right away, but I didn’t take the money …”
“What a stupid child. If you don’t take the money, what will you do if he turns around and doesn’t admit it?”
filigree pulled A Yunniang back: “Don’t say it, let Mian Niang say it. In such a short time, I already heard you say it.”
A Yunniang was not convinced, but after meeting everyone’s gaze, she still sat quietly at the side, and as expected, did not speak anymore.
Mian Niang continued to speak: “I didn’t go far, and hid in the alley, and sure enough, she quickly took the money and chased me out. She gave me the money, and we continued to talk about taking the mountain goods, and she also told me, that this business is not easy, and the people outside will not be as easy to deal with as the people in our village, but the profits are good here.”
She took a stool and sat at the table, counting with her fingers as she spoke, “I can, I can’t, and I don’t understand so many things, but I know, they want so many things. That means there’s a lot of demand from Boss Tan, and if I don’t take them, someone else will take them as well. The amount of money we earn is just like how I sell tofu. Before, there were three families of tofu makers in the vicinity, and every year, everyone was able to earn a lot of money, but ever since the two families stopped making tofu producers, these three amounts of money have all flowed into the pockets of me, not only that, I am using the name of Peach Blossom House, just watch, even if there are other people who want to make tofu from now on, it will be difficult for them to continue doing so. ”
“That’s different. Making tofu. The tofu you make is so delicious. How can other people’s tofu be comparable to yours?” A Yunniang said out the thoughts of the others.
Mian Niang laughed: “It’s the same logic. As long as the price is reasonable and the quality is good, not only will they get rid of the seller, they’ll also get rid of the buyer. Of course, I still don’t understand that much about doing business, but I feel that nothing in this world can escape this principle. “Integrity is the foundation of the world!”
Mian Niang thought about what the Master Zhang had said to him over and over again and felt that it made more sense.
Everyone looked at each other. Mrs. Song Li had obviously heard Mian Niang saying this for her, and now that she heard it again, her thoughts did not change. She was still insisting on her idea, not wanting Mian Niang to take the risk.
The others were also lost in their own thoughts, rather than saying that they were moved by Mian Niang’s words, it would be better to say that they were confused by him.
Only Li Chang silently nodded her head as she smoked her cigarette.
Finally, it was Mian Niang’s Old Uncle who cleared her throat and opened her mouth, “That’s reasonable, I don’t understand. In my entire life, the only thing I understand is farming, and as for other things, there’s nothing I can do, not to mention doing business. Even after all these years, I still need someone to help me out while I’m selling food. But I feel that Mian Niang is right. After a long time, everyone will recognize you as a person and will not be in contact with you anymore. However, if you are honest and treat everyone with sincerity, then you must be someone that everyone is willing to get along with. It should be the same in business, right? “She’s just trying to think of a way out. The more she walks her own path, the more friends she will have.”
“Yes, that’s it.” He raised his head and said to everyone, “The rest of us have been in this world for a long time, and all we know is the mountains around us, and what we see is the sky above us. In our lifetime, the road that we walk the most is the official road, and when we meet nobles or powerful figures, we need to get out of the way as soon as possible. In the end, the road is narrow and the road becomes narrow as time passes, and after a lifetime, that’s all it is.”
He looked at them and asked, “We always talk about people’s lives. The heavens are destined for us, and rich and poor are already destined for us even before we were born. But is it really the heavens’ fault?”
Everyone was shocked by his words, they only felt that they were even more confused than before. A Yunniang looked towards the filigree, seriously wanting to ask her if she knew what her man was saying.
Mian Niang’s eyes lit up the more she listened.
took a sip of water and moistened his throat, and continued to speak: “We never thought of going out to take a look before, never thought of having more than just farming, and their generation has more ideas than us, Chen Daniu knows that bringing people out to work will help everyone earn a bit more money, which is what young people are like, they have more foresight and ideas than us, and know that we can’t grow up on this land. The same goes for Mian Niang, since she’s just a woman, she can’t farm any land, so we can only think of another way, think of finding more ways, and make more money, but this life doesn’t count as good for her, it doesn’t count as that we can find a camp to earn more money together. “Fine, since we’ve found a way to make money, we might as well do it. But just like what she said, if we have a bigger business, then we can only do it the better. If we can’t do it the smaller, then we can only do it the smaller.”
His words were straightforward and long-winded, but it slowly made everyone understand. Everyone’s gaze swept the long and short distance between Mian Niang and her body, and then landed on the body of Madame Song and Li who had not said a word the entire time.
When Madame Song saw this gaze, she thought for a moment, then sat up straight and said: “His uncle, what you said, Mian Niang also told me before, I more or less understand a little, but, logic is logic, this business is easy to talk about, but it is hard to do. It’s good that we earn money, if we lose it, then the wealth that my father and I have saved up our entire lives will all be lost.”
The middle-aged man chuckled. “What are you afraid of, sister-in-law?” Even if it’s compensation, how much can we lose? Once we recycle the money, how can we sell it to him a second time? “Sister-in-law, your family only has one donkey or car left, other than these three rooms, those acres of land, and one cart, you and my big brother have spent your entire life saving this, and the rest are not earned by a pair of children. Fine, even if we lose money, we will treat it as land catching up with the drought for three years as we need to pay rent and tax.
Madame Song and Li were still a bit hesitant. Others might think that this was feasible.
But she didn’t dare go any further and persuade Madame Li, so she still had to make her own decision.
Madame Song Li looked at Mian Niang, then at, then at her middle and long hair, her gaze swept across the room and her heart had already started to loosen, but she still could not make a decision, thinking that this was a big matter.
The rest of the people in the room also stayed silent, giving her time to think.
The Superintendent then turned to Mian Niang and said, “How about this, you two continue discussing and look for me if there’s anything difficult. If it’s decided, I will go to each village to greet them and inform their chief. Sister-in-law, actually you don’t have to be afraid of Mian Niang getting troubled. This goods collection, your family will pay for it, and make the two of them help out, have you ever seen anyone who dares to be angry with your sister-in-law? ”
He was talking about A Yun’s parents, so when he said these words, A Yunniang didn’t feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he responded with a smile, “That’s right, Mian Niang saw that I have a fearless personality, so he asked me to sing about him.”
When A Yunniang said this, he deliberately glanced at Mian Niang’s two uncles, precisely because he didn’t want them to feel uncomfortable just because Mian Niang had handed over this matter to him.
“That’s true. We were talking about it in private. There isn’t anyone more suitable in this village than you, sister-in-law. I really don’t know who else can do it.” Mian Niang said with a smile, her heart at a loss.
