Chapter 144 Black-hearted Capitalist
Chapter 144 Black-hearted Capitalist
When Jiang Ci was jogging home in the morning, he happened to meet Ye Shuyun who was going to the place where a new house was being built.
Just follow him and take a look.
"Did you hire someone to make the beds and cabinets in your house?"
"It has been ordered in town, and it will be ready in about ten days."
“Will your house be built by then?”
"Yes."
The two of them also walked to the place, "Look."
Some people have already started working here.
Jiang Ci had never been here before, and at this time he saw that the main house was about to have its beams put up.
"The beams and tiles have been completed in the past two days. Next up is the kitchen and bathroom next to it, and the mud wall of the yard."
"I see this residential land is quite wide. Where are you going to build your kitchen and bathroom?"
Ye Shuyun led Jiang Ci to the left again, "Afeng and I had the same idea, so we built it at this location. The place where I'm standing is the courtyard wall."
"Why don't you build towards the east? There's still so much space."
"That's not necessary. We plan to use these places to pile corn stalks and straw in the winter, and grow some vegetables."
"I think you can just build the yard on the edge of the homestead. This adobe wall doesn't cost much anyway. I think the distance is only a little over ten feet."
"Well, there's still another 13 feet."
"You build the yard over there, and you can put the straw and other things in that corner. The kitchen is right next to it, so you don't have to run so far when you need it. The yard will also be bigger, and it will be convenient to build a house in the future."
Ye Shuyun looked at the four houses they had built now. When his parents moved in with them in the future and they had children, they would indeed have to build more houses.
Build two or three houses on the east side, and it doesn’t look that big anymore.
"That's fine. I'll talk to Feng about it later. We actually thought about it that way too, but we just felt the yard was too big."
"There will be a good life in the future, and your yard will seem too small then."
When his business becomes big in the future, he will definitely help his good friend.
Jiang Ci thought that if he was not busy next year, he would build a new house. He wanted a big house. It didn't have to have many rooms, but the yard must be big. Anyway, he had the money to build a house. If it were when he first came here, he would not even dare to think about it.
Ye Shuyun also asked at this time, "Brother Ci, where would you build a house?"
"It's just this area. We won't go to the west anyway, and this area is big."
"Then the two will still be close by then."
"Well, it's not far."
Lin Jingsheng came to find Jiang Ci and said, "Go home for dinner."
"Okay, I forgot the time for a moment, so I'll be leaving first, Brother Yun."
"Ok, bye."
Jiang Ci asked Lin Jingsheng, "How did you know I was here?"
"You run at about the same time every day. If you haven't come home yet, you must be out having fun."
"It can't be just one more lap."
Lin Jingsheng seemed unable to believe how Jiang Ci could say this. When he and Jiang Ci were running together, Jiang Ci's breathing became heavy after half a lap, and her steps slowed down due to exhaustion.
"Run one more lap? Do you think we just met?"
"Tsk! Is this how I am in your mind?"
"What's the matter? If you ask me, we don't need to run in the morning. We should just sleep in bed."
"I sleep in bed every day, how can I be strong? Can you be so happy every night?"
Lin Jingsheng touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Then Ah Ci should just go for a run."
"Humph~"
The whole family went to the soap factory to pack the soaps, which were the first batch.
Jiang Ci didn't calculate the date carefully. Someone from the soap factory told him the date while he was having dinner.
After they finished their meal, they went to pack up.
Ye Wan: "Pack it up and go to town to sell it."
"Let's go together. These bars of soap will be sold out in two days."
There were less than two bamboo baskets filled. After they were loaded, Lin Shan drove the donkey cart over.
Although the soap factory bought two cows and their family could afford cows, they all thought that the original donkey was good enough, so they continued to use the donkey cart.
Two baskets of soap were loaded, and "Let's go."
"How much does Ah Ci plan to sell this soap for?"
"This is the first batch. Sell it cheaper. Mint and mugwort are cheap anyway. Sell it for 30 wen a piece."
“The price is not high.”
“But when I think about it, the later batch of soap had less volume, so the price was actually higher.”
What Jiang Ci didn’t finish saying was that he was now like that black-hearted capitalist.
It was already 9 o'clock when we arrived in the town. There were no good rooms on this street anymore, but Qingyunfang had a certain reputation.
There were already a lot of people on the street at this hour, and within a quarter of an hour after the stall was set up, it was surrounded by people.
A young woman came and looked at the people at the stall, and then looked at the things they were selling, "Is this the stall of Qingyunfang?"
"Yes, this is the stall at Qingyunfang. We sell soap here. There are less than two baskets in total. First come, first served."
"Soap looks like dyed soap, what's the difference?"
"This soap can be used for bathing."
Jiang Ci picked up a piece of light yellow-green soap, "This is a soap made with mint, and the other is a soap made with mugwort. These have many benefits whether you take a bath or not. Taking a bath with soap is more refreshing, and it can reduce inflammation and relieve itching..."
"Is it really as good as you say?"
"Just buy it and try it and you'll know."
"How much is one piece?"
"This is the first batch of soap. It's also the cheapest soap, 30 cents."
"It's so expensive. I don't know if it's true or not. It's cold outside and I don't use it very often."
Some people just can't stand those who make sarcastic remarks even though they themselves can't afford to buy something.
"Sour grapes."
Jiang Ci: "It won't go bad. I can use it a few times this year and still use it next summer. If I wait until next summer to buy it, it won't be this price anymore."
Once this was said, those who had originally wanted to buy felt like they were getting a good deal.
After selling half the basket in the morning, they did not go home for lunch but went to the front street to eat a bowl of wontons each.
The soap didn't sell as fast in the afternoon as in the morning, but people still came to buy it.
At 3 p.m., Jiang Ci and Lin Jingsheng handed over the stall to Ye Wan and Lin Shan, and the two of them went to West Street.
The two people outside came to the gate of a security company and happened to see a group of strong men walking out of the gate.
When these 10 people stand together, their aura is really intimidating.
I just watched them walk away along the street, and only came back to my senses when Lin Jingsheng pulled my arm.
"What's there to see? Come in."
"I see this group of people like them. They look quite intimidating when they walk down the street, but I know they are not as good as you, nor as handsome as you."
Lin Jingsheng tried hard to press down the upturned corners of his mouth, but he couldn't do it.
"It will make me happy."
