Chapter 31 Take a breath!
He quickly said regretfully, "Ah! Girl, if you can't sell it, don't throw it away. You can feed it to the chickens. Really, the chickens eat the fruit and are nutritious. The eggs they lay will be bigger, and you don't have to lift them up.
By the way, did Erlang complain too much that he didn’t want to carry it anymore, so it all fell down? Erlang, you’re a waste of money!”
With full firepower, you have to turn to Erlang's direction.
Xu Jiaojiao said, "Mom, it's really sold out. The money we bought bought two kilograms of meat. We'll go home and eat dumplings at noon. The meat is under the basket. If you don't believe it, you can look through it yourself.
"These leaves are for packaging when we sell the fruit tomorrow."
Mrs. Xu Zhang was doubtful and stretched out her hand to reach the bottom of the basket. Sure enough, she saw two large pieces of fresh meat lying there, as well as a lot of tightly wrapped refined flour.
She stared at the fresh meat, overjoyed, "Jiaojiao, did you really sell the fruit? I'm afraid it's not a pound of pure lean meat. This pork belly is also a pound. It costs twenty or thirty cents, Jiaojiao."
Jiao, did you really sell the fruit for money?"
When she went out in the morning, she only gave Xu Jiaojiao twelve cents, which was enough for her to buy three meat buns and a bowl of broth.
Even if Xu Jiaojiao doesn't eat meat buns, she still can't get these two pounds of fresh pork!
Not counting so many kilograms of fine flour! Fine flour is much more valuable than mixed noodles.
Xu Jiaojiao winked playfully, "Yes, they are sold out. Mom, hurry up and make dumplings to eat. In the afternoon, let all the children who have free time at home go with me to the mountains to pick fruits to sell. We will go there tomorrow."
Mrs. Xu Zhang laughed for no reason, "Hahahahaha, my Jiaojiao is very capable! She will make money! She can earn two kilograms of pork by selling wild fruits, hahahaha... Who can compare with us in these ten miles and ten towns?"
Jiajiaojiao is so lucky, I have never seen one."
After laughing for a while, he hurriedly picked up the fresh meat and said, "Okay, mom will make dumplings for you. You won't be able to finish these two kilograms of meat in one meal. I'll make half a kilogram of meat first and leave the rest.
I’ll keep it for you for a few days and eat it slowly.”
Xu Jiaojiao scratched her head, "Mom, it's all done. Erlang and Sanya all contributed. The whole family had a great time eating dumplings. When we bought them, we all ate them together. We ate them together so that we could go to the mountains to pick fruits together. What's more,
Motivation."
Mrs. Xu Zhang's face became solemn, "No, Erlang and Sanya have contributed, just give us two. No one else can take advantage of my old daughter. Meat is such a precious thing. It would be a waste to feed them."
.Besides, this is my old daughter’s hard-earned money. I don’t have to raise their blood-sucking worms. If you want to eat meat, you can earn it yourself..."
This is firmly disagreeable.
In the past two days, Xu Jiaojiao always brought out food to share with everyone, which made Mrs. Xu Zhang unhappy for a long time.
She didn't know that Xu Jiaojiao had shared the meat buns with Erya and Erlang in town, otherwise she would have jumped up on the spot.
Before Xu Jiaojiao could object, Xu Zhang said again, "Anyway, once the meat is in my hands, I will distribute it. Jiaojiao, don't worry about it. Don't say that you got it from selling the fruit. Just say that I asked you to buy it."
Yes, Erya Erlang, you all shut your mouths, do you hear me?"
Erya and Erlang quickly said yes.
No, it’s because I think my life is too long.
Xu Zhang saw that the old girl seemed to have something to say, so she quickly said, "I'll take the fresh meat for safekeeping. By the way, I'll help you take the hemp leaves to dry in the sun for you to use tomorrow."
Suddenly, her hand reached under the basket again.
There seems to be something else?
Why is it still there?
As soon as she opened it, she saw several large packets of brown sugar lying at the bottom of the basket...
There is so much brown sugar that the whole family can’t finish it during the Chinese New Year!
The weather is hot now, and there is no place to store the sugar. It is easy to melt and go bad. Even if the old girl soaks in water every day, how long will she have to drink alone?
Wait, how much does it cost to buy so much sugar?!
This is no less expensive than pork.
"Jiaojiao? Where did this candy come from?"
Only then did Xu Jiaojiao have the opportunity to speak, "I also got money from selling fruits, Mom. I sold a total of 95 cents from selling fruits. I bought two kilograms of fruits. I bought the rest for candies. I have uses."
Mrs. Xu Zhang took a breath of air this time!
Oh My God!
95 articles!
Just this basket of wild fruits that she doesn't like?
Can it be sold for 95 Wen?
If a farmer works on the fields all year round, how much can the harvested crops be sold for?
Her old daughter could just pick wild fruits for half a day and sell them for 95 cents?
She had previously thought that selling for twenty or thirty cents would be enough to make her hold her waist and laugh for a long time. She would even talk to the neighbors about how lucky she was as an old girl.
It's been more than half a year.
Now I know it was sold for 95 Wen, which is several times the price of pork!
It was so exciting that I almost couldn't recover from the excitement.
"Oh, my Jiaojiao! How can you be so capable! How can these wild fruits that no one wants be sold for so much money!"
Erya finally found a suitable point to speak, "Nai, our old lady is really amazing. I have never seen anyone as awesome as our old lady. My fruit is half given and half sold. As long as someone comes,
, without asking if they wanted to buy it, they gave each person two fruits to try first. At first, they didn’t sell any of them, so they gave half a basket of fruits. I was watching from the side, and I was about to die of panic. My mother said, I can’t sell them.
If you drop it, it would be good to bring it back and feed it to the chickens..."
Mrs. Xu Zhang's heart also twitched, "Really? Then, why did you sell it for so much money?"
Erya was like a storyteller, "Nai, listen to me. My brother and I were anxious as we watched. Finally, someone asked about the price. How much do you think our old lady shouted?"
Xu Zhang thought for a while, "One penny per catty? No, one penny can't be sold for so much money, two cents? Does anyone want two cents? Two cents is the price of a vegetable bun..."
Erya suddenly stretched out five fingers in front of Mrs. Xu Zhang, "Nai, aunt, she sells it for this amount! Five cents a pound! Five cents...I was blushing at the time, aunt.
She can really raise the price. Will anyone buy it at such an expensive price? Who doesn’t have money? Five cents is a half-sized meat bun. If it were me, I would definitely buy a big meat bun, right, milk?"
Xu Zhang was shocked, "Of course! What? Is this really sold?"
"It's sold! My old lady is very eloquent. She said that this wild fruit can moisten the lungs, stimulate body fluids, quench thirst, etc. Anyway, it's all kinds of delicious. Eating it is good for the body. The first one
The buyer was an old woman who often coughed. She stood there and ate at least five or six fruits that our old lady gave us for free. She really wanted to buy them, but she bargained. The old lady said she would start selling them on the first day and buy two kilograms.
