Chapter 9 The Bazaar
"The hare's fur is neat and the weight is sufficient. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info will count fifty-one for you. The lad took a rabbit in his hand and said.
Jin Dazhong nodded again and again, but he still looked back at Peach Blossom, and when he saw Peach Blossom nodding, he immediately responded: "Okay, even if it's a fifty Wen." "
The young man looked at the peach blossom curiously, and said happily: "Okay, the uncle and a few people will wait here for a while, and I'll get the money." "
Peach Blossom saw the young man carrying the basket, turned the door and went to the backyard, this time they couldn't help but make a sound.
"Wow, I didn't expect to be able to sell for so much money, and I couldn't make so much money from embroidery embroidery that my mother and I had embroidered for two years. Rika exclaimed.
"yes, yes, you can buy a lot of things. Mingsheng also said with bright eyes, I don't know if I can let my father buy a candy man for himself after a while, last time Zhao Bao's father bought him a candy man, he showed off all over the village, and made himself envious for a long time.
But after a while, the young man came out, holding two pieces of money in his hand, handed them to Jin Dazhong and said: "Uncle, the four rabbits have a total of two hundred yuan, but today my shopkeeper happened to be there, and when I saw a few people coming for the first time, I counted two more yuan each, a total of two hundred and eight yuan." Uncle, count them. "
"How can this be made, this is not good, this is not good. When Jin Dazhong heard this, he didn't follow anything, and he was going to take out the eight cents and return it after untying the money string.
"Uncle, what are you doing, how can there be any reason to send money out. The young man hurriedly grabbed Jin Dazhong's hand. This is specially explained by Childe, if he can't do this thing, he won't have the face to see Childe.
"Dad, you just keep it, since the shopkeeper is so generous, we don't have to be hypocritical. In the future, if there are any good things, we will only sell them to game houses. Peach Blossom said crisply behind Jin Dazhong, and then looked at the young man.
"Yo, that's exactly what this little girl said. In the future, if there is anything good, just sell it to our game shop. The young man smiled and said, "Boy, just come to me next time." "
Hearing Ah Yu say this, Jin Dazhong was a little at a loss, he had been dealing with the land, he was a little unaccustomed to talking like this, and he didn't know how to interface, so he had to nod and say okay.
After a few people left the game shop, Ah Yu ran to the backyard at a trot. I saw that there was a hole in this backyard, the square yard was clean and refreshing, under the ginkgo tree, two teenagers sat face to face across the stone table, a pot of tea on the table, two plates of snacks.
"Childe, everything is done. Ah Yu whispered, and repeated what happened just now, his eyebrows and eyes were completely devoid of the joy just now, and his face was calm.
The young man didn't say anything, just looked at the person opposite playfully, and said casually: "That little girl is interesting." "
The young man on the opposite side also looked at him, not who Su Jinchen was.
I saw Su Jinchen's gentle appearance as always, and said softly: "If you can help a village, you can help, it's just a matter of effort." "
"Then why don't you give more. The young man stared, and the pair of Danfeng eyes under the sun were amazingly beautiful.
"Giving too much is not necessarily a good thing. Su Jinchen took a sip of tea, and couldn't see clearly in the mottled shadows of the trees.
When he got out of the door of the game shop, Jin Dazhong, who had never had so much money in his pocket, was a little uneasy, looking back and forth left and right, for fear of being robbed.
"Dad, don't be so careful, the more you do this, the more those thieves will know that you have money. Peach Blossom said helplessly: "Big brother, did you say?"
"Didn't Dad go out with so much money?" Jin Dazhong said embarrassedly.
"It's okay, Dad, we'll have more money in the future. Jing Sheng said childishly.
"Huh. "Kim Dazhong will only be silly and happy.
"Pear Blossom, you take a bunch of money and take your sister and brother to buy something, and your eldest brother and I will go to the dock to see if there is any work. After walking out of the vegetable market, Jin Dazhong opened his mouth and handed the money in his hand to Pear Blossom.
"This ......" Lihua looked at a large string of money, looked at Jin Dazhong and Jingsheng a little helplessly, he had never taken so much money, and now he only felt a little hot.
Peach Blossom thought for a while and said, "Dad, big brother, don't go to work, it's not safe for me and my second sister to carry a lot of money." Why don't we go and buy all the things we need at home today. "
"Okay then!" Jin Dazhong also felt reasonable, so he nodded.
According to what was discussed yesterday, Jin Dazhong took the peach blossoms and a few little guys to run around to buy things.
First of all, buy all the things you need at this stage at home. Peach Blossom followed behind and carefully counted the accounts in her heart, and bought a bag of flour and rice for nearly 100 yuan, a pound of salt for 10 yuan, and half a catty of rapeseed oil for 15 yuan. There are seventy-eight dollars left.
Originally, everyone was still in high spirits, but seeing that the money in their hands was getting less and less, and there were still a lot of things to buy, their faces couldn't help but sink, and even Mingsheng, who was shouting to buy candy, was silent. In fact, in Taohua's opinion, the purchasing power of this money is still very strong, and a hundred Wen can buy a bag of flour and rice, which is enough for the whole family to eat for a few months. In this dynasty, one tael of gold was equal to ten taels of silver, and one tael of silver was equal to one thousand wen yuan. According to the current purchasing power, a penny is almost equivalent to a modern yuan, but the value of the goods here is very different from that of modern times, just like salt, which is very cheap in modern times, but here because it is controlled by the state, and the origin of salt is strictly controlled, the value is very high, but salt is a necessity in people's lives, no wonder there are always some smuggling salt merchants in TV dramas, and it seems that there is still a basis.
After buying food, it's time to buy something to protect you from the cold, which is definitely not saved.
Standing in the cloth shop, Jin Dazhong and Jing Sheng put down the noodles and rice on their backs respectively, Pear Blossom held the salt bag, Peach Blossom carried the oil can, and Ming Sheng bit his finger and looked at the candy seller outside.
The shopkeeper was an elderly woman sitting behind the counter, her hair in a high bun. Seeing Jin Dazhong and a few people coming in, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "A few of you look at it, it's the first time you've come to the shop, don't you know what you want to buy?"
"Shopkeeper, we want to buy some cotton cloth and cotton. Kim Dazhong said.
Cotton was the cheapest cloth at the time.
"What a coincidence, I happened to have a batch of new goods back, the cloth is soft to the touch, whether it is to make clothes or quilts, it is the best. As she spoke, the woman led the people to the shelf on the left side of the cloth, took out a dark blue one from the second floor, and placed it in front of them, and tore open a paragraph at random, saying, "Touch it and see if the fabric is good." "
"It's good, it's good. Jin Dazhong touched it and said, his hand quickly retracted from the cloth, as if he was afraid of getting dirty: "I don't know how much money is a foot?"
Peach Blossom frowned, looked at her cautious father, and thought that she would have a good life in the future and let her family be calm.
"It's not expensive, one foot only costs two pennies, and two or three feet is enough for an adult to make a new outfit, which is very affordable. The woman's round face trembled with laughter, and her eyes shrewd.
In the end, Peach Blossom and the others chose a three-foot smoke blue one for Zhang's family, and a six-foot dark blue one for Jin Dazhong and Jing Sheng, because the proprietress said that it was cheaper to buy a color for a penny. Jin Dazhong asked Peach Blossom to choose one too, and Peach Blossom shook her head and said, "I'll talk about it later." "
In the end, he weighed five catties of cotton, and spent fifty cents, cotton was really expensive, and the peach blossoms were depressed.
Including the money for buying cloth, this time a total of sixty-four dollars were spent.
After settling the bill, Peach Blossom suddenly spoke.
"Beautiful aunt," Peach Blossom hid behind Jin Dazhong, suddenly spoke, looked at the proprietress timidly, and shouted in a small voice, although the voice was not loud but enough for everyone present to hear.
Jing Sheng glanced at the peach blossom and did not speak. This girl, since she woke up from her illness last time, has become more and more eccentric, and there must be a reason why she suddenly has such a voice.
Hearing Peach Blossom's words, the proprietress suddenly smiled and squinted, her fat hand touched her face, and the silver hairpin on her head also swayed.
"This girl belongs to yours, isn't she? The proprietress bent down and pinched Peach Blossom's face: "Little girl, what's the matter with your aunt?"
"Well, it's okay, I just want to ask the pretty aunt if the fabrics are still there?" Peach Blossom said timidly as she looked at the proprietress with a pair of big eyes, blinking and blinking her little finger at the rags piled up in the corner of the doorway.
The proprietress looked at the cloth in the corner, it was all the rags left over from the clothes cut by the guests, it was useless, it was piled up randomly on weekdays, if someone wanted it, it would be sold cheaply, and if no one wanted it, it would be thrown away, and it was not worth much anyway. After looking at Jin Dazhong and the others, the woman's eyes flashed, and she was about to open her mouth but was stopped by Peach Blossom.
"Beautiful aunt, if you are useful, forget it, my family is poor, I thought that if the beautiful aunt didn't need it, I would take it back and let my mother use it as a cloth to wipe the table, or a foot cloth, our family is really poor, is it okay for the beautiful aunt to give it to us?" Peach Blossom raised her head to look at the proprietress, her little face was pitiful, and her eyes were full of tears.
The woman looked distressed, remembering her daughter at home, who looked at herself like this when she wanted anything when she was a child, her heart softened, and she said, "Forget it, take it if you want." It's useless to keep it anyway. "
"Thank you, pretty auntie!" said Peach Blossom at once.
In the end, Peach Blossom picked up the rags in the corner and walked out of the store.
Before leaving, Peach Blossom waved to the proprietress and said, "Thank you, beautiful aunt." "
"Hey, welcome next time!" the proprietress shouted happily.
"What do you want to do with this broken step?" Seeing that it was far away from the store, Rika couldn't help but ask.
"Naturally, it is useful, our clothes last year were a little short, you can find some of these rags that are similar to the color of our clothes, so that you can save some of the money to buy cloth, besides, free things, but just say a few more words, don't be in vain." "
"I see, I said I'll let you pick the fabric, what do you say later. Kim Dazhong suddenly realized.
"What's more, we can use these rags to make some purses ourselves, and sell them! Although the fabric is not particularly good, it is very expensive. Peach Blossom said that this is the main purpose.
"Is this okay?!" Rika and Jingsheng were dumbfounded.
Peach Blossom shrugged, no way, the family is too poor, and she has no special skills, so she has to seize every opportunity to make money, and she doesn't need to embroider anyway......
Jin Dazhong smirked on the side, this little girl is really getting smarter and smarter.
Looking at the sky, it was almost noon, and Jin Dazhong said, "Are you hungry? Let's find a place to eat something before leaving." "
"Okay!" Mingsheng was the first to agree, he ran with him all morning, and he was already a little hungry.
Found a secluded place, Jin Dazhong and the others put their things on the ground, took out tortillas from their bags, Jin Dazhong gave each of the children a piece, and kept the youngest for himself.
"When we finished eating, we went back, with so many things, I guess we couldn't go fast, and if we didn't want to rush to the night, we had to leave early. Jin Dazhong swallowed a bite of cake and said.
"I knew that I would go to Aunt Zhao's house to borrow a board car. Peach Blossom was a little annoyed.
"It's right that we didn't borrow it, because their family has a grocery store in the village, and it would be annoying us to know that we didn't go to their house to buy things and came to the city to buy things. Rika said.
"Who made it so expensive for his family to sell things, everything is more than a penny more than in the city, and some even two pennies more, so we don't go to him to buy it!" Mingsheng also said very understandingly.
"It doesn't matter, just this little weight, it's not a bad person. Jin Dazhong said happily, with so much food back, Zhang was afraid that he was overjoyed, and when he thought of Zhang's smiling appearance, his heart was warm.
"yes, it's okay, don't worry. Jing Sheng also comforted.
