Chapter 44: Selling Eggs

But how could Liu Haohao not be in a hurry, she was still in a hurry to go to Weishang, and everyone was scattered when it was late, and this basket of eggs would be smashed on her hands.

In the dim light of the archives, she worked hard to write, and it didn't take long to copy a few volumes, and then she flipped through the papers of previous years, and found that the subject was similar, so she put away her pen and carefully folded the two pages and stuffed them into her pocket.

"Sister Zheng, thank you!" she smiled and returned the pencil to Sister Zheng.

"Okay, how do you sell the eggs in this basket?" Sister Zheng sat on the side, holding the insole, and started the idea of these eggs.

"Eggs are two cents, duck eggs are five cents, and goose eggs are five cents. She pulled her hair together and said cheerfully that if she could dispose of the eggs here, she would save herself from carrying them to the polder.

"Duck eggs and goose eggs are so expensive?" Sister Zheng seemed to be taken aback.

Liu Hao laughed, "Sister Zheng, these chickens, ducks and geese are all raised by my aunt, and this price is also what she told me before I went out, whether it is expensive or not, I really don't know, but I will know how much it should be when you go outside." ”

Sister Zheng avoided answering the price outside, but just shook her head vigorously, "This duck egg looks about the same size as the egg, why is it so expensive?"

"Duck eggs are bigger than eggs," Liu Hao picked up the basket and said with a smile, "and duck eggs nourish yin and clear the lungs, in a hot place like our southern province, it is best to eat duck eggs." ”

"What about the goose eggs?"

"Goose eggs are even more incredible, you look at this head, it is five times the size of the egg, I see, it is cheap to sell five points, this goose egg is the most nutritious, and it is better to supplement the body of the elderly and children. Liu Hao said as he walked out.

Seeing that she was leaving, Sister Zheng was a little anxious, "Don't be in a hurry to go, I'll buy a few eggs." ”

"That's good, I haven't brought it to the polder to sell, you are the first to pick, the freshest and largest eggs are up to you. Liu put down the basket generously, where to set up a stall is not a stall, ordinary people can't enter the commune office building to set up a stall.

Sister Zheng hesitated and picked five eggs, two duck eggs and one goose egg, a total of four cents a piece, she bargained with some pain, "Teacher Liu, can it be cheaper, I bought so much." ”

"Why don't you do this, I'll give you another egg?" Liu Haohao was also embarrassed, "I'm also bold enough to make my own opinion, and I'm going to be scolded by my aunt when I go back." ”

"Hey, that's good, that's good!" Sister Zheng nodded hurriedly, which was equivalent to getting her two eggs for nothing, as happy as anything.

She also felt embarrassed to get such a big bargain, so she offered to come forward, "I'll help you call some people to come and buy it, and it will save you from going out to sell." ”

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Sister Zheng, you can help me shout when the time comes. She smiled unceremoniously.

"It's on me. Sister Zheng agreed without hesitation.

In these years, eggs are a nutritious product and a luxury, and ordinary people are reluctant to eat them every day, unless there are sick people at home, or parents who pamper their children, they are willing to buy a few to supplement their bodies.

When Liu Dali was alive, there was an egg for him every day to replenish his body, he loved Liu Haohao, and often left this egg for her to eat, after Liu Changsheng found out, he had to let Cheng Zhaodi give Liu Haohao an egg to eat every day.

Later, after Liu Dali died, Liu Haohao's special treatment was gone, even Liu Changsheng's favorite Liu Xiangxiang had no eggs to eat, let alone Liu Haohao, all the eggs at home were saved for money.

Liu Haohao did not complain, but felt that such a bowl of water was flat and impartial, and she would rather save all the money at home for a few younger siblings to study, and the investment in education was more affordable than anything.

Sister Zheng is very actionable, and in a blink of an eye, she pulled four or five women over, some of these people have daughters who have just had a miscarriage, daughters-in-law who are in confinement, and sons who fainted at school because of malnutrition......

They are all families who need egg nutrition to replenish their bodies, and it seems that Sister Zheng knows the target customer group very well.

There was almost no need for Liu to shout well, and Sister Zheng, who consciously took two eggs for nothing, was very conscientious to help shout, and the effect was very good, and it didn't take long to sell out a basket of eggs.

Liu Hao felt that Sister Zheng was really condescending to manage the archives here, and in a few decades, she would be a good hand in sales.

She smiled and put the money away, "Sister Zheng, thanks to you today." ”

"It's just a matter of taking a hand, and it saves us from going to the polder to buy, you don't know that our new commune secretary is in charge of it tightly, and the last time I went back to our commune correspondent's house, I went back for a while, and he was arrested, criticized and reviewed at the commune meeting, and fought people...... Now when it's time to rush to the polder, we don't dare to go out casually......" Sister Zheng complained, "But who doesn't need some fruits, vegetables, eggs and vegetables, and when they rush to the polder for a few days every month, they don't let us go out to buy, and the family doesn't know how to open a gang......

Liu Haohao thought it strange before, the polder was so lively, they were close to the water, why didn't they go to the polder to buy it, it turned out that such a strict commune secretary came.

"The next time I rush to the polder, I will come up at noon, and if you want anything, I will pick it up at your door, and it will save you from worrying about violating discipline. Liu Hao carried the empty basket and smiled.

"That's good, nothing else, it's just that my old lady is old, she has suffered for so many years, and she has fallen ill, so I buy her some eggs to eat from time to time. Oh, by the way, we live in a commune dormitory, unlike you who have a place to grow vegetables in the village, so you can bring some vegetables with you. ”

"Okay, I remember," Liu nodded well, "Then I'll go first, we'll see you next time." ”

It was almost noon when Liu Haohao left the Education Commission, the stalls on the polder were sparse, and it was coming to an end, she glanced at it casually, selling common things in the countryside, and there was no value in shopping, so she went to the acquisition station wholeheartedly.

The station was deserted, and an old man with gray hair and glasses was sitting behind the counter napping.

"Uncle, Uncle......" Liu Hao called softly.

The old man opened his eyes and smiled at her embarrassedly, "Sister, what's wrong?"

"I picked some herbs, can you collect them?" Liu untied his back basket.

The old man pushed his glasses and carefully identified the herbs in the back basket, "Yo, if it's really herbs, you know so many kinds of herbs, Ah Mei's family is a barefoot doctor?"

"No, I heard the elders mention it, and I tried to go to the mountains to pick it. Liu Hao looked at him expectantly, in the past few days, she took Liu Tiantian and Liu Shangshang to dig up these herbs all over the mountains, she felt that this weight was not light, and it should be able to sell for a lot of money.
