Chapter 24 Prices
Orchid and Erlang were wandering around the street with high spirits, looking at Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden here, looking curious about everything, and Wu looked at the two children lovingly and followed behind with a smile on their faces. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
She was so frightened today that she couldn't believe the fact that she had a penny in her pocket. Early in the morning, the nerves were not said by the children, and the convulsions whimsically accompanied the children to the Wei to go crazy, and when the cyclamen came to the shop Xiao Er drove away, I didn't know where the courage came from to rush forward to theorize, and then the courage suddenly lost the courage to take the children home, who knew that the peak turned around, and met the noble Yu shopkeeper and his wife, not only negotiated a deal, but also made a lot of money at once, and there may be more in the future, and suddenly there was an unreal sense of happiness that was hit by the pie falling from the sky, and I felt dizzy.
With the two children, looking east and west, Wu pulled a three-foot head rope for the orchid and the lotus, weighed a few pieces of maltose, bought a sugar gourd for each of the four babies, and then weighed a pound of white sugar and half a pound of brown sugar, and bought some loose things. According to the orchid's instructions, the three of them bought medicinal herbs and ingredients at several pharmacies and grocery stores, and then hurried home.
Asking all the way, on the way home, Orchid has been converting the price of this dynasty in his mind: an egg sells for a penny, a three-foot head rope is also a penny, and a hairpin costs ten pennies to one tael. Sugar gourd three pennies two, maltose ten pennies a catty, vegetable basket small penny, large sanwen, soles three pennies a pair, sugar is a bit expensive, twenty wen a catty, salt is rarer, thirty wen a catty, easy to buy. The most expensive is medicinal materials, so I bought three packs of ordinary medicinal materials, and it cost more than 200 yuan, it's really dark, it seems that the poor can't afford to get sick at any time. The rest of the price is not clear for the time being, but this big dollar is about the same as a dollar in the 21st century? Orchid secretly thought, hey, in the era of scarce resources, this purchasing power really can't be measured.
Otherwise, in the final analysis, the income is too small, and Orchid secretly clenched her fist.
The lazy sunset shone on the three of them, Wu held the hands of his children, the long figure was printed on the country road, the sun was warm, and the heart was also warm, because of the unloading, and the mood was cheerful, the return orchid went a lot faster, and finally rushed to the big mountain pass in the dark. From a distance, I saw Da Lang holding Cheng Tao and looking at the entrance of the village with lotus flowers.
As soon as she saw that the eldest sister was back, Lotus trotted up happily: "Mother, eldest sister and second brother!" You're back! ”
"Slow down, slow down! Lotus flowers, don't fall. Wu shouted as he quickened his pace towards the lotus.
Lotus looked at a few people with relaxed expressions and smiled, and didn't ask about the sale, and shouted directly at Orchid, "Sister, why did you come back, let Lotus wait, go home quickly, Dad and eldest brother are in a hurry." ”
Da Lang didn't speak, only smiled and handed Cheng Tao to the lotus, and then took the back basket on the back of Wu and Erlang.
It seems that this family, except for Erlang, is quite smart. Orchid grinned, smiled and took out the head rope from her arms and stuffed it into Lotus's hand, "Let's go, let's go home!" ”
Several people happily returned home, and as soon as they entered the West House, Erlang mysteriously approached Da Lang to express his merits: "Big brother! Eldest brother! Guess how much we earned today? ”
Da Lang knocked Erlang's head with a smile: "Stinky boy, I didn't make any money, but I learned to sell with my eldest brother!" ”
Erlang grinned and leaned into Da Lang's ear: "Who said that we didn't earn it, we can earn a whole amount of money." ”
"What!" Da Lang was taken aback and said in disbelief: "What? You say it again, you didn't talk about big brother, did you? ”
"Of course!" Erlang grinned triumphantly, and his eyebrows fluttered to tell the story, and the suspense of the painting and color was repeated, and he listened to Dalang's heart up and down. Wu Yonggui was also dumbfounded when he heard it, and unconsciously grew his mouth.
Emma, I didn't find that Erlang still has this kind of talent, and in modern society, it is Xiao Yueyue! Why don't you tell the story, it's a pity.
The lotus flower flashed with big eyes, and she couldn't put it down and rubbed the beautiful red head rope and was reluctant to bring it, and when she heard Erlang's words, her envy was overflowing: "Sister, can you take the lotus next time?" ”
"Good! Come to the lotus, sister will help you tie it up. Seeing the little sister carefully holding the head rope, Orchid loved this sensible little sister and felt guilty and distressed, "In the future, the eldest sister will buy you beautiful head flowers, and I will buy silver hairpins for our mother!" The lotus flowers listening here were happy, and the Wu family, who was counting the copper plates, was causing tears to ripple over there.
After tying up her hair, Orchid divided the sugar gourd and maltose among a few people. Da Lang was still immersed in Erlang's fantasy storytelling at the moment, and subconsciously took the sugar gourd and put it in his mouth.
Under Wu Yonggui's incredulous gaze and Da Lang's almost envious expression, Erlang couldn't finish his mouth, took a sip of water, and then said: "I guess, this tong must be easy to sell!" You don't know, Uncle Yu, the shopkeeper of the restaurant, eats a big bowl without blinking, it must be easy to sell! Right, big sister! After speaking, he raised his chin towards the orchid and reached out to take the sugar gourd.
"What the second brother said is extremely true!" Orchid looked at Erlang with a smile, "But we have to keep the formula secret, if people know, everyone can do it, we won't be able to make money, am I right, mother!" ”
"That's it!" Although Wu was immersed in the happiness of counting money, his mind was clear: "Since we promised the shopkeeper Yu to only give him a big tong, we have to keep our promises, and we must not lose others." ”
After speaking, he carefully threaded the copper plate: "There are still six hundred and fifty-seven Wen left." After speaking, he wiped his tears and added, "Count three times, Bodhisattva bless, it's almost enough for us to buy grain and pay taxes." ”
Only then did Da Lang realize that he was eating sugar gourd, and he felt a fever on his face: "Eldest sister, why don't you buy this for me, you can eat it yourself, and I'll leave it to us Chengtao." ”
Cheng Tao's smiling teeth did not see his eyes, and he was busy licking the sugar gourd, while sending the sugar gourd in Dalang's hand to Dalang's mouth and saying, "The cauldron is fragrant, eat it." ”
The family burst out laughing. Although the future is uncertain, it is also a good start, the clouds in Orchid's heart finally dispersed, and he said confidently to Wu Yonggui and Wu: "Dad, mother, we can be regarded as a bodhisattva blessing, otherwise we will not meet Uncle Yu." I caught the tongs late this morning, I didn't catch much, and I delayed the hour, so we promised to send the tongs to Uncle Yu tomorrow? What if it's not too late tomorrow? “
"Yes! His father. Wu began to be melancholy: "Just relying on a few babies, not to mention the hard work, you can't catch much." Erlang, why don't you teach your father, and the father and mother of the Ming Dynasty get up early to catch it? ”
"It doesn't have to be that much trouble." Orchid tilted her head: "Just a few simple tools." While looking at his father's reaction, he carefully talked about some table shrimp methods in his previous life. Perhaps the family was still immersed in shock and did not recover, and no one doubted Orchid's words.
