Chapter 422: Goods Seller
While Chen Jianghe was gutting the wild boar, Su Mingzhe went to the woods and picked up some firewood.

By the time he lit the fire, Chen Jianghe had already skinned and cleaned the wild boar, and the offal was thrown all over the floor.

After an animal dies, the first thing to rot is not the appearance, but the internal organs, which are called offal.

If these offal are not removed and thrown away, the entire animal's body will be contaminated and rot within a few hours.

Therefore, when you find an animal carcass in the wild, even if the carcass looks good on the outside, don't think about eating it.

Because the bacteria inside have already contaminated all the layers of meat.

Chen Jianghe cleaned the blood off his body, and then he saw Su Mingzhe skewering meat with a wooden stick, and asked curiously:
"Brother, are you preparing smoked bacon?"

"No, I'm just going to prepare a barbecue. You should do the same when you are in the wild in the future."

When Su Mingzhe was alone before, he could carry the wild boar home in three to five minutes and hand it over to Zheng Jianjun next door to deal with.

But today Chen Jianghe is here, and in order to teach him some skills, he takes him to deal with it in the wild.

Although it is called barbecue, it does not mean that the meat must be completely roasted. Just apply a layer of salt particles inside and outside, and slightly grill the surface to medium-rare.

We'll deal with the rest after we get home.

Su Mingzhe was grilling wild boar meat while giving instructions to Chen Jianghe.

He will be in charge of processing the wild boar meat today, but Chen Jianghe will do it himself tomorrow.

Knowing this, Chen Jianghe studied very seriously.

The two of them finally finished grilling the wild boar meat. Su Mingzhe took out a large piece of oilcloth from his backpack, wrapped the grilled wild boar meat, then tied it up skillfully and carried it on his shoulder with a wooden stick.

Seeing Su Mingzhe easily carry more than 200 kilograms of wild boar meat, Chen Jianghe was naturally envious.

In addition to envy, he also made up his mind to exercise well and strive to develop a good physique like his older brother.

The two returned home. It was not yet eight o'clock.

"Jiang He, I'll chop the meat and you can take it to the homes of my three uncles Chao Cheng, Chao Xiang, and Chao Gui."

Su Mingzhe placed the wild boar on the kitchen chopping board, picked up a kitchen knife and chopped it into eighteen pieces.

In recent years, two more men in the Su family have gotten married.

There are now eighteen households in the Su family, so when Su Mingzhe distributed the meat to everyone, the original sixteen portions were increased to eighteen portions.

Chen Jianghe listened, his face a little worried: "Brother, you are not going?"

These days, Chen Jianghe has been following Su Mingzhe. Every five days or so, he would follow Su Mingzhe to deliver meat to the Su family. He knows the addresses of the three families.

However, since Chen Jianghe came to Pujiang, he has never gone out alone.

"It's not like you don't know the way now, just go by yourself. I still have to cook at home, and we both have to go to the material exchange conference later."

Su Mingzhe waved his hand and told Chen Jianghe to get to work quickly.

Chen Jianghe gritted his teeth and stopped talking.

He pushed the bicycle over, tied up the wooden basket, put the meat that Su Mingzhe had divided into it, and pushed the bicycle out to distribute the meat to everyone.

Since Su Mingzhe came to Pujiang in the winter of 69, he has been hunting continuously. He makes money by selling furs, but the meat is distributed to his tribesmen.

In winter, Su Mingzhe would deliver meat at slightly longer intervals, once every ten days or half a month.

But in summer the intervals will be shorter, once every three to five days.

Every time Su Mingzhe distributed meat to everyone, each family would get 10 to 20 kilograms.

The meat will be distributed to everyone, and everyone can eat it themselves, or take it to the material exchange conference to exchange it with others and get other materials.

It's to make everyone live a more comfortable life.

The Su family, with more than a hundred people, has begun to look rosy and live like human beings in recent years thanks to the help of Su Mingzhe.

When Chen Jianghe brought the meat back, Su Mingzhe had already prepared breakfast.

Su Mingzhe cooks, so Chen Jianghe enjoys the meal.

After the two of them had finished their meal, Su Mingzhe brought Chen Jianghe and the furs he had nitrated over the past half month to the market.

On this hot day, the smell in the fur section is hard to describe.

It was the first time that Chen Jianghe smelled such a pungent and fishy smell, and he couldn't help but want to pinch his nose.

Su Mingzhe laughed when he saw it, but didn't pay any attention to him.

The fur section is like this.

It was still morning at this time, and by noon, the smell was even more fishy and smelly.

The two men found an empty spot and set up their fur stall, and immediately someone came over to ask for the price.

Chen Jianghe watched as his elder brother skillfully engaged in an "extreme tug of war" with the other party.

Soon, the other party shook his head and left.

This person left, and someone else came over after a while.

This went on back and forth, with more than a dozen people asking about the price, but Su Mingzhe gritted his teeth and refused to lower the price.

After Su Mingzhe sent another customer away, he turned around and saw that Chen Jianghe's eyes were full of doubts, so he smiled and said:

"Jiang He, do you know why I didn't sell the furs to that man even though I was just a few dollars short?" "Brother, why? I saw that you guys had already agreed on the price, why don't you sell it?"

"Because the fur business is different from those vegetable and meat vendors. After noon, those vegetables and meat will go bad, but our furs can be stored for several months. So, if we can't sell them at this material exchange conference, we can come again next time. In the industry, this is called 'selling goods to knowledgeable people'. If you don't understand the business, I won't sell to you."

Chen Jianghe seemed to understand what Su Mingzhe said.

Su Mingzhe was about to explain in detail when he saw Zheng Wu coming over.

"Fifth brother."

"Brother, you are here again. I have been to your house more than ten times in the past few days, and every time your door was locked."

Zheng Wu looked anxious and said, "We have almost finished what happened last time. Come home with me first. I still need to discuss some things with you."

"I'm sorry, Fifth Brother, I was not at home recently because of something."

Su Mingzhe did not mention that he and Chen Jianghe stayed at home, but he locked the door from the outside. He apologized with a smile and said:
"Fifth Brother, just take care of that matter yourself. I won't worry about it."

"That won't work."

Zheng Wu shook his head like a rattle, not listening to Su Mingzhe at all: "Brother, it's okay if you don't want the money, but the name must belong to you, otherwise, wouldn't I be taking advantage of you?"

As Zheng Wu spoke, he picked up the furs on Su Mingzhe's stall and told Su Mingzhe that he must go with him today to get everything done.

Su Mingzhe had no choice but to follow Zheng Wu to his home with Chen Jianghe.

"Brother, these are six shops facing the street. Now they are all canteens operated by the public and private sectors. The owner sold the ownership of these shops to us for a total of 5,000 yuan. I think it's okay. Three shops are in my name and three are in your name."

Zheng Wu made his words clear first and did not allow Su Mingzhe to refuse.

Su Mingzhe looked at the deeds to the three shops that Zheng Wu handed to him. His name was written on all the deeds. He had no choice but to accept them.

Zheng Wu was relieved when he saw Su Mingzhe accepted the shop deed. He now admired Su Mingzhe very much.

After all, Su Mingzhe was able to find and hunt those twenty silver fox skins from the mountainous area within a radius of hundreds of miles in less than ten days. The hunting skills involved were far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

In Zheng Wu's opinion, Su Mingzhe is already the best among hunters.

As a fur merchant, if I don't make friends with a capable person like Su Mingzhe, then who should I make friends with?

After Su Mingzhe received the deed to the shop, his relationship with Zheng Wu naturally became closer.

If Zheng Wu needs Su Mingzhe's help with any difficult problems in the future, Su Mingzhe will definitely not let him wait for another month.

"Brother, regarding the scholarship for outstanding students, I have also communicated with the school. The annual rent for one shop is 30 yuan, and six shops is 180 yuan. If we subsidize according to the current average living expenses per person in Pujiang, then each student will get 5 yuan per month. There are two semesters and nine months in a year, which is 45 yuan. The annual rent for six shops means that we can subsidize four outstanding students."

"Forty-five dollars per person is fine, but it's a bit too little for four people. How about this? According to this standard, support ten outstanding students, and I'll make up the remaining two hundred and seventy dollars."

As Su Mingzhe said this, he was about to take money out of his pocket.

Zheng Wu didn't expect Su Mingzhe to be so generous. He was shocked and immediately said:

"Brother, don't give me this money. I have already given the 180 yuan to the principal. If you still want to help more students, you should talk to the principal."

When Zheng Wu said this, he was really shocked by Su Mingzhe's "magnanimity and generosity".

You know, now the average worker's salary is only 20 to 30 yuan, and there are not many workers who earn more than 40 yuan.

As soon as Su Mingzhe opened his mouth, he threw out hundreds of dollars.

This spirit is exactly the same as that of Mengchangjun in the novel, who values ​​talent more than money.

Ha ha.

Su Mingzhe is not as good as Zheng Wu said.

It's just a few hundred yuan a year, which is meaningless to Su Mingzhe.

Apart from anything else, if he released his incarnation and made some money in the world, he could easily earn billions of dollars.

Hundreds of dollars fell on the ground, but Su Mingzhe didn't even bend down to pick them up.

"Brother, have lunch at my place. I'll ask your sister-in-law to prepare some snacks for you and we'll have a good meal."

"Fifth brother, let's forget about it today. I have something urgent to attend to. How about this? Please make an appointment with the principal of the elementary school for me and get the scholarship settled. Then you come to my place and I'll cook for you. We won't leave until we're drunk."

Su Mingzhe definitely didn't want to drink at Zheng Wu's house.

The furs that Zheng Wu collected were basically all placed in this yard. They had a very fishy, ​​pungent, and particularly strong mutton smell.

The reason why Su Mingzhe could sit here and chat with Zheng Wu freely was because he had closed all the pores in his body and was holding his breath.

Su Mingzhe would definitely not be able to bear drinking and eating in such a place.

Not only Su Mingzhe couldn't stand it,
Even Zheng Wu’s own children couldn’t stand it.

Zheng Wu and his wife are in their thirties and have three children, but all three children live with their grandparents in their hometown, Zhengjiawu.

The three children in their family just can't stand the smell here, and they rarely come here to visit their parents throughout the year.

Zheng Wu had long been accustomed to it, but he hadn't thought about this for a while, which was why he opened his mouth and invited Su Mingzhe to stay for dinner.

Now, Su Mingzhe wanted to leave, and Zheng Wu could only see him off:

"Okay then, let's get together again after I make an appointment with the principal."
