Chapter 5: Cut two pounds of meat

"12 catties and 3 taels, plus these three bags, one is 13 catties, the other two are 14 catties and 14 catties and 4 taels, a total of 53 catties and 7 taels, and I don't count the weight of the bag too much for you, just deduct two taels and weigh it, 53 catties and 5 taels, or according to a piece of eighty-one catties for you, is there a problem?" or the vendor yesterday, "You are really good, you made so many lobsters alone?"

"No problem, you do the math of how much money you have. Su Xing nodded, and asked seemingly unintentionally, "You collect so many lobsters a day and put them at home, aren't you afraid of suffocating to death when it's so hot?"

"What are you afraid of, if you leave it overnight, I will go to the district early the next morning to sell the lobster, I can't die, it's hard work, I have to get up at three or four o'clock." The vendor said with a smile, counting the money and handing it to Su Xing, "Click it and see if there is anything wrong." ”

Su Xing ordered the money in front of the vendor: "Why is it only 96 yuan, is it less than 3 cents?"

"You're a snakeskin bag with water on it, I just wiped the weight of two taels on you, 3 cents, why do you care so much with me, remove the whole number, isn't it right?" said the vendor, "I made a hundred dollars in a day's work, yes, don't worry so much." ”

Su Xing listened to the vendor's words and was stunned for a moment.

It has always been the vendor who makes up the price difference for the customer, and there is no saying that the vendor pays the difference for himself.

It's not a matter of more money and less money, it's just a little uncomfortable in my heart.

Uncomfortable is uncomfortable, wake up too lazy to argue, go to the vegetable market.

I cut two catties of meat, spent eleven yuan, weighed two catties of flour, bought two packs of mustard and a handful of leeks, woke up and came out of the vegetable market, and went to the fishing tackle store to get some white net bags and wire.

"Boss, how do you sell this yellow eel cage?" asked the boss who was sitting at the door basking in the sun while weaving the yellow eel cage.

"It depends on what kind of bamboo you want, bamboo is eight cents a piece, and the plastic here is stronger, a little more expensive, five a piece. The boss asked Su Xing, "Do you want it?"

"Bamboo is fine, wouldn't it be cheaper to buy more?" asked Su Xing.

"If you buy more than thirty, I'll give you seven cents a piece. "The owner was also happy.

"Okay, then take fifty. Wake pointed to the bubbles on the side, "Can you give me some more of these bubbles?"

"Take it, take it all. The boss waved his hand, put down the half-knitted yellow eel cage in his hand, counted out the fifty yellow eel cages that had been braided, tied them with ropes, and helped them wake up and hang them on the bicycle.

There were too many things on the bike, and I didn't dare to ride it when I woke up, so I pushed it all the way home.

"What are you buying? Spend money whenever you have it. Wang Chunlan felt distressed again when she saw the things hanging on the waking bicycle.

Su Xing took down the meat and flour hanging on the car handle, and handed it to Wang Chunlan: "I weighed two catties of meat, and some noodles, so let's eat dumplings at noon." ”

"Brother, did you buy meat?" Su Ran ran out, watched Su wake up with a blank eye, and circled around the bicycle.

"I didn't buy you ice cream, I bought a few meat buns. Su Xing bought more than a dozen buns and let Su Ran carry them into the house.

"How much does it cost to do these things? The rice is already being made, what are you buying buns for, waste. Wang Chunlan poured the flour into the basin, kept the noodles alive, and nagged about the awakening that was being done outside for a while.

"It's not much, it's just a few dozen dollars. Su Jing said, "Mom, live more noodles, and let the rats come over to eat together at noon." ”

"Dozens of yuan is not much?" Wang Chunlan added some water to the basin, added some flour, and continued to live, "Don't buy these things next time you go to the street." ”

Su Xing smiled a little helplessly and didn't speak.

The family may not be able to eat meat once a week, and it may even be a month before going to the street to cut some meat and make dumplings to eat.

After graduating from Su Xing High School, Wang Chunlan went to work in the brick factory in the village, and after the brick factory closed down, he went to work in the hose factory in the town, just to earn college registration fees for Su Xing.

At that time, Wang Chunlan was in her 50s, working two shifts, and often working night shifts, so she woke up and didn't want it to happen again.

can make the life of the family a little better, and dare not delay when you wake up. As for money, relive a lifetime, in the eyes of the awakening, there are business opportunities everywhere, and the family will definitely not be short of money in the future.

After doing it for a while, Su Xing sent the car to Su Hao's house, Su Qiangmin was sitting in the house, and Su Xing took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket: "Second father, you take this cigarette and smoke it." ”

"What are you doing here, don't you just use a bicycle, just use it, and you still need to buy cigarettes? "Su Qiangmin doesn't.

A pack of red double happiness costs three yuan, few people in the village smoke, and they usually smoke more than a piece of Xiangyang cigarettes.

"Take it, my dad doesn't smoke either, it's useless for me to take it back, and I may have to use your second father's bicycle in the future." Su Xing stuffed the cigarette into Su Qiangmin's hand, "Mouse, go out with me." ”

Su Xing took Su Hao to go home, Su Qiangmin took a cigarette, looked at Su Xing's back, and was speechless for a long time.

"He's bought you cigarettes? These cigarettes are more expensive than your usual cigarettes." Su Qiangmin's daughter-in-law said beside him.

"Three yuan a pack, not many people in the village smoke this, this kid can do things, I'm afraid he will have a big future in the future." Su Qiangmin took a cigarette and put it on his lips, "But how do I feel that this kid from Su Changmin's family seems to be a different person, and he didn't have this cleverness before." ”

When I got home, I woke up and asked Su Hao to help me get some yellow eel cages.

"What is this thing for?" Su Hao carried the yellow eel cage on his back and followed behind Su Xing.

"Catch the eel. Wake up.

"Catch the eel? Su Hao didn't understand.

"We'll find out in a few days. Su woke up to the small pond in the village, chose a place and threw all the yellow eel cages in his hand into the pond, and then found a few stones to press on them, so that all the yellow eel cages sank into the water, and said to Su Hao, who was still looking at him in a daze, "Throw the yellow eel cage in your hand into the pond as well." ”

"What are you doing throwing it in, can you get a yellow eel so you can get it?" Su Hao was a little puzzled.

"I can't get it now, just soak it and remove the smell from the yellow eel cage, and it will be done in a few days." Su Xing took the yellow eel cage in Su Hao's hand and put it into the pond, soaked it all in the water, picked out some mud and wiped it on it.

The yellow eel cage is made of bamboo, and the new yellow eel cage has the smell of bamboo, which must be removed, and the best way is to put the yellow eel cage into the toilet and soak it for two or three days, and then take it out to clean it, so the smell is very attractive to the yellow eel.

However, I woke up and felt too disgusting, so I didn't do that, so I changed the method and put the yellow eel cage in the pond and soaked it for a few more days.

After getting it done, he woke up and went home, and asked Su Hao to help him take it for a while and go to the river together.

"Go down all of this. When he arrived at the river, Su Xing told Su Hao, and he found a place to sit down and continue to do it for a while.

After a while, they went down into the river, and along the banks of the river were all white foam floating.

Wake up and make a while, and add one to the river.

After a while, the lobsters caught also increased, only one morning's work, it is estimated that there are forty or fifty catties of lobsters, and Su Hao woke up at noon to watch by the river, and he took the lobsters he caught home and put them, it was hot outside, there were many lobsters, and he didn't dare to put it for a long time when he woke up, and after eating, he brought Su Hao a big bowl of dumplings.

At night, the kitchen of Su Xing's house was covered with snakeskin bags, and the rustling sound was one after another, and there were two large basins for washing clothes in the hall, one of which was borrowed from Su Hao's family, and it was full of lobsters.

"What are you doing with so many lobsters, the smell is all over the house, it's not convenient to walk, it's wet. Su Changmin kicked over a lobster that escaped through the net, kicked it next to the laundry tub, and didn't move, watching Su Xing pick it up, "Don't just bring meat buns tomorrow, bring some fritters and soy milk back." ”
