Don't panic, the family boss is busy farming

Chapter 203 Auntie is here
After visiting the ceramics store, the purses of the students are almost empty.

Some are already empty, so I can only watch helplessly as the students continue to head to the grocery store.

The newly developed soy sauce is the most popular, but unfortunately, the quantity is not much. The purchase limit is two catties per person, 120 yuan per catty, and 240 yuan per person for two catties, which is acceptable.

After all, the salt has to be combined for almost [-] yuan to get a catty. This soy sauce can be used as salt, and it tastes better than salt. Everyone thinks that this price is quite good.

But it is still difficult for ordinary people to consume.

However, there is no way to do this. After all, it is not salt, and it is not considered an indispensable necessity in life. It can only be classified as light luxury seasoning for the time being.

Aside from soy sauce, there is another popular item in the grocery store: needles.

Don't underestimate this small needle. In this era where the family is the production unit, men farm and women weave are the mainstream.

There is almost no weaver who does not want a needle, but not everyone can have this small iron needle.

In a village, anyone who can have a needle in their home can become the object of envy.

The more she understands the hard work of the people at the bottom of this era, the more Xu Yue feels that she is lucky. The families who have traveled here have iron hatchets and kitchen knives, which shows that their family's conditions are really rich in the village.

It is also because of this that the whole family felt very stretched at the beginning, but in fact, they have overcome the family conditions of countless local poor people, and they can achieve everything they are now.

The needles in the grocery store are all packed in thick cardboard boxes, and there are [-] needles in a box.

Such a box of needles only costs three hundred dollars.

All in all, a needle is less than a dollar.

For a piece of money, no matter how poor the family is, they can find a way to get it out.

The same is true for the linen, and the same is true for the needles. Unlike other students who shouted that Xu's needles are cheap, Boya suddenly felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

Looking at the boxes of needles that are so cheap that every weaver can use, a picture of "weavers making clothes" automatically appeared in front of him. On the picture scroll, the happy smiles of children wearing neat clothes, The surge in his heart could not be calmed down for a long time.

"Xu Xiaolang, won't your family still lose money on the needles?" After calculating in his mind, Boya caught Xu Yue who was encouraging the students to buy more, and asked softly in disbelief.

He had calculated that even if Mabu didn't make money, it shouldn't lose money either.

But this needle, invested in raw materials, labor, and time, can only be sold for less than one needle per needle, which is definitely a loss.

Xu Yue, who was busy helping the big guys to buy things, was stunned by the question, and then answered with a smile: "Well, it is indeed a loss."

"Then why is your house still selling so cheaply?" Boya asked puzzled.

Seeing that he was asking seriously, Xu Yue also put away her smile, and replied seriously: "The average person doesn't need so many needles. We sell them at a price of less than one yuan per needle. In fact, we sell them to those who come from north to south. From the merchants who go there, they buy in large quantities and then sell them at a higher price, including travel expenses, at least two or three times the original price to make a profit.”

I price a needle for less than one yuan, so when the merchants sell it, it will cost two or three yuan a needle. This price should be affordable for everyone. If you have no money, you can exchange half a catty of grain. . "

"In this way, every weaver in the world can have needles."

Seeing the seriousness and certain persistence in the girl's eyes, Boya was stunned for a while.

Xu Yue pointed to the products next to her and said: "Needles are indeed losing money, and linen clothes are not making money, but these things are indispensable to the common people, but we make money from other things, and the two sides are mutually charged, so it is still not a loss." of."

"But, how can there be such a business?" Boya murmured in confusion.

Xu Yue wanted to say that in my Great Heavenly Dynasty, there were people who did business like this.

The basic security supplies of the common people, the country has always been a loss-making business with money, just to enable everyone to meet the basic needs of life.

This money was allocated from other sources of income.

Every year, the money to subsidize the basic necessities of life is as high as tens of trillions.

Otherwise, where do you go to use a few cents per kilowatt-hour of electricity, one or two yuan per ton of water?Take the smooth and fast expressway, and take the comfortable and efficient high-speed rail subway?

Those large-scale construction projects have always been based on improving the living conditions of the people.There are too many things that can't just look at costs and benefits, because the value of their existence can no longer be judged by conventional standards.

Of course, it was impossible for Xu Yue to tell Bo Ya about these things, and even if she wanted to, it was not at this time.

"Young girl!"

When the students were standing in front of the counter to check out under the leadership of brother and sister Xu, Mrs. Wang walked in.

Dressed in strong clothes, he looks slender and powerful, and his footsteps are like the wind, adding a bit of freedom and ease.Her mid-length hair was tied up high, and she looked heroic.

If it weren't for Xu Yue's brother and sister shouting in unison: "Aniang!"

Bo Ya thought that the person who walked in was a well-trained sergeant.

With a slight flick of her black eyes, one couldn't help but want to stand up straight and accept the review.A powerful aura envelops you, making you only look up to her.

Mrs. Wang strode in, and the noisy grocery store suddenly fell silent.

At that moment, Ziyu thought of what Xu Yue said, most of the martial arts of the three of them were taught by A Niang.

At that time, he didn't quite believe it, but now, seeing the woman in a well-dressed woman walking in front of him, her legs softened, and she wanted to kneel!
Looking at the three Xu Yue brothers and sisters, they are not afraid of such a mother at all, but smile, their eyes are full of admiration.

It can be seen that the relationship between the mother and the three children has always been close.

However, how can a mother who looks so serious be intimate with her children?
Ziyu immediately thought of his strict father. Although he respected his father, his father was not bad to him except being strict.

But the two of them have always maintained a distance that is neither far nor close, and they have never been so close before the brothers and sisters of the Xu family.

Confused and secretly envious, Mrs. Wang glanced over, "You are all classmates of my Dalang, Erniang, and Youniang? You are welcome to come over. I will ask the cafeteria to prepare a light meal in the evening. Everyone go over there." Eat, although it is just a home-cooked dish, but I think you will all be happy to eat it."

She smiled, and the sharpness in her eyes faded a lot, but she was still far from the image of a loving mother in the public.

But looking at the proud and happy Xu family three brothers and sisters standing behind her, everyone felt that this unique mother was really kind.

Their mother had never arranged for the classmates they brought home so generously.

But they never thought, if their mother was like Wang, would they be able to accept it?
They were even a little ashamed to let the mother in the family appear. They felt that it was against the rules and contrary to the traditional etiquette, which indirectly caused the mother who cared about the mood and face of the child to dare not come out.
