Chapter 36: Missing a pound or two

Wang Juhua heard Li Muyang say this and looked at his serious eyes, feeling a little helpless.

She is fierce and domineering, but she also needs a little bit of reason to use it to her advantage.

But in this situation, facing an honest man like Li Muyang, she really couldn't say anything else.

If they don’t sell it, Li Muyang will definitely go out and talk about it.

Because the villagers all know that he is honest and will not doubt his words, then it will spread that he is a treacherous person.

Although I know they can't do anything to me, after all, I am open for business, and I am still the village elder's wife. It is always a bit inappropriate to be stabbed in the spine from behind.

Now, after hearing what Li Muyang said, she made a calculation in her mind, that is, ten kilograms of flour. Anyway, there is no cost, so just use less.

Who knew this guy could really spend so much money.

He didn't insist on buying 100 kilograms, he was still sensible, so he just took advantage of the situation and became a good person, and both of us took a step back.

What's more, even if she agrees to this price, there are other places where she can treat this guy's disease. Don't think that you can really take advantage of your low price.

"Okay, Brother Shepherd, you have said so. My sister-in-law is not the kind of unkind person. Just 4 cents for 4 cents. I'll sell you."

Li Muyang nodded slightly to express his gratitude.

Even though he seemed to have the upper hand, he didn't do everything right and forced someone to sell him 100 pounds for 4 cents because he knew that there was no point in forcing him.

This kind of verbal promise can never be done.

If Wang Juhua was an honest and trustworthy person, how could she steal other people's flour?

Since you know that she will not truly fulfill her promise, insisting on it will only make both of you unhappy.

There was no change in the final result, but Wang Juhua may have been offended.

Offending Wang Juhua means offending the village chief, and it will be very difficult for him to contract Taoshan later.

This is a chain of events.

Li Muyang is not a fool, so he will not die recklessly.

He heard Wang Juhua agree, which was also what he expected.

He is just looking for a critical point that is acceptable to both parties, at which both parties can find psychological comfort.

"Thank you very much, sister-in-law. I didn't bring a cloth bag when I came here. Can you put it in a bag for me?"

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll find a bag for you... Find a bag. Where can I find a bag? Just this one. There was about 10 kilograms left here just now."

Wang Juhua took out a small half bag of flour from the corner and put it down in front of Li Muyang.

Then he pushed the scale from the corner.

Electronic scales were not used in this era. Generally, steel scales were used in markets and weight floor scales were used in mills.

Li Muyang opened the flour bag, scooped out the flour from the bottom of the bag with a wooden ladle, shook the wooden ladle gently, and found that there was a lot of dregs inside.

He looked at Wang Juhua and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, there must be a mistake. This bag of noodles may be the bottom, and there is still scum in it."

The bottom surface is the last surface, equivalent to the tail surface.

Wang Juhua smiled awkwardly, "Oh, you said that your brother, Madaha, asked him to put these unclean noodles separately so that he could eat them to see who needed to feed a kitten or puppy. Why did he get in there?

What’s in the flour? Just wait, my sister-in-law will help you change a bag right away.”

"Then trouble sister-in-law."

Li Muyang smiled faintly.

I’m not angry, and I don’t say much.

If you change it for me, then I can do it. Otherwise, I won’t say a word.

Don't try to do any tricks.

If a person lives long enough, he has seen enough things, and little cleverness will not work in front of him.

When Wang Juhua walked to the platform to get the noodles, she secretly turned around and glanced at Li Muyang, and found that the young man was standing quietly waiting for him, with a calm smile on his face.

Wang Juhua has never seen this kind of temperament in people in the village.

For a moment, she felt that Li Muyang was like someone on TV.

A bit unreal.

Suddenly, I felt much less tempted to continue to harm him.

No more tricks, I just dragged over half a bag of flour and picked up a small 10kg flour bag.

"Come on, Brother Shepherd, hold the mouth of your bag open and I'll give you more noodles."

Wang Juhua first adjusted the weight to the 10-pound position and handed the empty bag to Li Muyang.

Li Muyang glanced at the scale, with a hint of ridicule at the corner of his mouth.

Good guy, this woman really doesn’t shed tears until she sees the coffin.

We must also work hard on weighing.

"Okay."

Li Muyang nodded, opened the mouth of the bag with both hands, and watched Wang Juhua add flour inside.

A total of 9 scoops were added, and Wang Juhua made a slight "eh" sound. She looked at the scale and seemed a little confused.

"It's not enough, sister-in-law. This scoop should be a pound. I see that you are not very full every time. It should be more than a scoop."

"Oh, there are only 9 scoops. I thought it was 10 scoops."

Wang Juhua smiled awkwardly, dug out another scoop of noodles and poured it in.

Yes~

It seems like there is still something missing.

"It's probably because the ladle is not full enough. It's still a little bit full. Just do this, sister-in-law. Take another ladle and slowly add it in until it's full."

"That's right, that's okay."

Wang Juhua scooped out more than half of the noodles, added them little by little, and slowly returned to the position, saying that it was enough.

"Okay, I don't want the rest."

Li Muyang pointed out that the pointer was just balanced, and in front of Wang Juhua, he took off the flour bag and put it on the ground.

Because it was taken so suddenly, Wang Juhua didn't react, and one foot was still on the scale.

"This..."

The two people looked at each other with awkward smiles.

Li Muyang pointed to the bag, "Did my sister-in-law put her feet on it when we weighed her just now?"

"No, definitely not. Your sister-in-law is a decent person. How could she do such a shameless thing? You can rest assured about this."

Wang Juhua quickly patted her plump breasts to confirm.

"You mean, I don't have to weigh myself again?"

"No need, of course no need. Didn't we really see it just now? 10 kilograms of flour, not one kilogram more, not less."

"Otherwise, let's go back to the lower title. I think that would be more reassuring."

Li Muyang persisted again.

"Oh Brother Shepherd, you are saying this because you are not worried about your sister-in-law. She is open for business. Can she weigh you short? It must not be. Don't worry, if this flour is short of one kilogram, I will compensate you 10 kilograms.



Li Muyang hesitated slightly and smiled, "I think so. My sister-in-law can't do such a thing."

As he said that, he looked at the flour containing residue that Wang Juhua had just thrown aside, "Sister-in-law, you must have no use for that flour, and people can't eat it."

"Well...it has dirt mixed in it, so I guess it can only be used to feed the chickens."

"I remember you don't have any chickens at home. Why don't you just leave it to me? We happen to have a few chickens at home. How much do you think I should charge you?"

Wang Juhua gritted her teeth, "Since you want to feed the chickens, let's make it the same price as the bran. I'll give you a total of 2 yuan."

"1 yuan."

"You...Okay, I'll give you 1 yuan."
