Chapter 4 Selling Vegetables and Encountering a Mysterious Man Treasures under the Sycamore Tree

When Wang Yueying arrived at the vegetable market, she found that only Ling'er was there.

"Sister Cuihua went to the West Market to buy something, and I'll be back later." Before Wang Yueying could ask, Ling'er explained first.

"Oh, haven't you sold out yet?" Wang Yueying saw that Ling'er had some radishes, greens, and some eggs in front of her.

"Not yet, you can go back later, I can't go back if I can't sell it here." Ling'er said, with a little helplessness on her face.

Wang Yueying thought to herself, I heard that Ling'er's mother-in-law was very strong, and eighty percent of these vegetables could not be sold, and she would definitely be angry when she went back, so she suddenly sighed and said, "It's okay, I'll help you sell it together, and it will be sold out soon." ”

"Sister Yueying, have you ever done business?" Ling'er looked at Wang Yueying curiously.

When it comes to doing business, Wang Yueying is really a big girl who has married for the first time. When I was a child in an orphanage, I liked to play a role like a successful strong woman when I was drinking, but after that, I started studying until I graduated from college, and I spent it on a scholarship.

After thinking about it, I am a modern person, there are so many modern marketing methods, I have never eaten pork and have seen pigs run, and the words have been spoken, and when I saw Ling'er's appearance, I forced a smile and said: "My ancestors have done some small business, calculate the money, these will still be a little." How is this dish sold? ”

"Two handfuls of greens for one penny, two radishes for one penny, and five pennies for eggs for one pound." Although Ling'er felt strange, she still answered honestly.

Wang Yueying saw that there were not many greens and radishes left, and there were still many eggs, and after pondering for a while, she seemed to have a bamboo in her chest, and said to Ling'er, "Don't worry, leave it to me." ”

After speaking, Wang Yueying imitated the appearance of those street vendors, and shouted loudly: "It's cheap, it's cheap, buy one get two free, buy eggs and get green vegetables and radishes, first come, first served, don't miss it when you pass by"

Here Wang Yueying shouted energetically, but the people who came and went just came up to take a look, occasionally a few men came to ask the price, and the people who bought it didn't have one, Wang Yueying couldn't help muttering in her heart, this is the world or the face, I am not a sinking fish and a goose, I am ashamed of the moon, I am also tall and outstanding, beautiful and generous, it seems that there are many people who watch me lively. Doesn't this trick work, didn't the ancient people be greedy?

At this time, a tall figure came to the front of the vegetable stall, Wang Yueying saw that there was a guest coming, and hurriedly greeted enthusiastically, "Now it's cheap, go home after selling, buy eggs and send green vegetables and radishes." ”

"Oh, how much?" A deep voice sounded, and Wang Yueying took a serious look at the man in front of her, dressed in black clothes, with her hair tied, tied up, wearing jade, and wearing high boots. The clothes are brocade clothes, the belt is a wide-brimmed crimson belt, the jade does not know what kind of jade it is, the face is strict, the facial features are as hard and cold as a knife, exuding an aura that only the superior has at a glance, and he is a generous person at first glance.

"Buy a pound of eggs and get a handful of greens and a radish. Eggs cost 6 a pound. Wang Yueying cheered herself up in her heart and replied with a smile.

"Buy one, get two free," the man in black muttered, "One or two silver, all of them bought." The man in black said after a few words.

The entourage behind him immediately stepped forward and handed Wang Yueying a tael of silver, Wang Yueying was overjoyed and hurriedly accepted the money.

"Thank you, officer, do you need us to deliver to your door?" Wang Yueying saw that the man in black only brought an entourage.

"Delivery? Door? You mean to get something delivered to the store? In one day, he heard two unfamiliar words from a village woman, which made the man in black take great interest in her.

Wang Yueying naturally knew what he meant, and of course she deliberately said this word to attract his attention. Looking at the appearance of this man in black, I know that he is in business, and now he has nothing, only some marketing methods commonly used in modern times, it seems that this person is interested in my marketing methods, and I don't know if I can sell him all the vegetables in the future.

After thinking about it, he said aloud: "If you just buy a little, of course we don't have a door-to-door delivery service, but like the guest officer, you spend a tael of silver, we are delivered to the door within the town, of course, if you don't spend a tael of silver, you can also spend an extra five cents for us to provide delivery services." ”

"Oh." The man in black nodded, indicating that he understood, and then said, "There is no need for home delivery now." But if you have something next time, you can send it to Piaoxianglou. ”

Over there, Ling'er had already tied the radish and green vegetables with a rope, Wang Yueying looked at it, and gave the eggs and baskets to the entourage behind him, and the man in black turned around and left proudly.

Ling'er nervously took Wang Yueying's hand: "Yueying, how can this person be willing to spend so much money to buy our vegetables?" ”

"Don't worry, we are willing to buy and sell, it's okay. Now, put the money away. "He bought my marketing methods, Wang Yueying said in her heart, and handed one or two pieces of silver to Ling'er.

Ling'er kept saying that those dishes were not worth so much money, and she was unwilling to accept the one or two silvers.

"What are you two doing here?" As soon as Cuihua came over, she saw the two of them pushing around with a tael of silver.

"Sister Cuihua, you have to let Yueying accept the money" Ling'er saw Cuihua hurriedly explain the matter.

After hearing this, Cuihua said, "Yueying, you should accept this money." Ling'er took it back and went into the hands of her mother-in-law. ”

Wang Yueying heard Cuihua say this, and confirmed the rumor that Ling'er's mother-in-law treated him badly in her heart, so she put one or two pieces of silver into her purse, took out the thirty yuan from selling the purse plus the previous ten yuan and handed it to Ling'er: "Then this is the money you use to sell vegetables, and the rest should be put here for me, and you can come to me to get it if you need it in the future." Ling'er nodded in response, but she made up her mind not to want the money.

"Sister Cuihua, have you bought your things?" Wang Yueying saw that Cuihua's basket contained some white flour and cloth and other things.

"Almost, I'm not going to come back to see if you're here, I'll just go buy some meat later."

"I'm going to buy some meat, too, let's go over together."

"Sister Cuihua, you're here!" Cuihua took them directly to a pork stall, and the boss immediately greeted Sister Cuihua with a smile.

It seems that she is a regular customer of this shop.

"Xiao Ye, why is your daughter-in-law not here today?" "My daughter-in-law has been happy these days, and I let her rest at home." Xiao Ye grinned. "Yo, I'm going to be a dad so soon, congratulations."

"Thank you, thank you, what kind of meat does Sister Cuihua want?" Xiao Ye greeted warmly.

"How is the price of meat now?" Sister Cuihua asked.

"It's still the same as together, lean meat costs five cents a catty, pork belly costs seven cents a catty, and lard cubes are ten cents a catty." Xiao Ye reported neatly.

Wang Yueying looked at the tube bones on the side, the meat on them was basically shaved off, and thought that although there was no meat, but now the children are growing, and the tube bones can supplement calcium, so she asked: "How to sell this big bone?" ”

"Nobody wants this bone, there's not much meat on it. Give it to you if you want it. Although Xiao Ye was curious about how someone would ask for bones, he didn't ask much, just explained.

Wang Yueying was very excited, it turned out that they didn't know that this bone was very mending, so she hurriedly responded happily: "Then give it all to me." ”

"Yueying, what do you want this bone for? There isn't much meat either. Sister Cuihua asked strangely, and Ling'er also looked at her curiously.

"Eh, doesn't this doctor often say that it's something to make up? It's time for my family Xun'er and the pavilion to grow up, so take it back and cook some bone broth for them to drink, maybe they can grow taller. Wang Yueying didn't dare to say anything like making up for the barrel bones, which made them feel that they were in trouble if they were abnormal.

"Oh, I guess the doctor said that. I'll also bring some boil for our roots to drink. Sister Cuihua said with a smile. Gen'er is the only son of Cuihua and Yang Dashan, 12 years old this year, known as Yang Baogen, because Baogen's grandfather is also Cuihua's father, when he was young, he was a shopkeeper and knew a few words, so Baogen often practiced calligraphy with other cousins at his grandfather's house, and Wang Yueying has never seen it now.

Cuihua and Ling'er bought two catties of pork belly, and Wang Yueying thought about it and wanted three catties of pork belly and two catties of lard cubes. As for the barrel bones, they were divided between Cuihua and Yueying.

Xiao Ye's speed was very fast, and it didn't take long to wrap the pork.

After Cuihua put her things away, she looked at Wang Yueying's basket: "Yueying, put the meat down, the provincial women in the village should chew their tongues again when they see it." ”

After Cuihua's reminder, Wang Yueying suddenly realized, looked at the pork belly in her basket, hurriedly put it at the bottom, and suddenly thought that there was only some salt at home, so she said: "Sister Cuihua, I still have to buy some seasonings, and there is only some salt at home." ”

Cuihua patted her head: "Eh, fortunately, you said it, I only have a small jar of salt at home." I said I forgot something, and I went buy it now. ”

Wang Yueying looked in the grain and oil shop and found that the condiments at this time were very simple, only salt, sugar and vinegar, soy sauce and the like, Wang Yueying bought some of all kinds of seasonings, and thought that there was only one bag of brown rice left at home, so she bought some rice.

By the time they reached the city gate, most of the villagers had returned. After everyone said hello, they got on the ox cart and babbled all the way back.

After saying goodbye to Ling'er and Cuihua, Wang Yueying walked home with the basket. Before I reached the door of the house, I saw two small figures sitting side by side at the gate, holding their chins and looking into the distance.

Seeing Wang Yueying coming over, the pavilion immediately shouted that her mother was going to pounce, but because the person was too small, she stumbled when she suddenly stood up, but fortunately, Xun'er quickly pulled her hand.

Wang Yueying hurriedly walked over, hugged the pavilion and kissed her, "Good." He hugged Xun'er again and kissed her, "Xun'er is great, she takes good care of her sister." What a good brother. ”

Xun'er was very happy to hear the praise, pursed her lips and smiled, and suddenly seemed to think of something, pulled Wang Yueying and said, "Mother, let's go into the house quickly, we have something to show you." ”

"Mmmm, mother, let's go in quickly." The pavilion was also in a hurry to call.

What happened to the two children, Wang Yueying followed the two siblings into the house with a curious face. As soon as I entered the bedroom, I saw Xun'er mysteriously take out a jade bracelet from under the pillow. Jadeite, also known as jadeite, is a kind of jade, is a hard rock formed under geological action, and is very precious now, but in ancient times, jadeite was not expensive, and its value was not high, so it was not valued by the world. Wang Yueying took the bracelet and took a closer look, and found that a dark green crescent moon shape in the middle of the bracelet slowly spread out, from dark green to dark green to light green, accounting for one-third of the bracelet, while the remaining two-thirds of the place was snow-white, and there was no crack in the whole bracelet.

Wang Yueying held it in her hand, as if she had seen this bracelet somewhere, but she couldn't remember where it was. "Where did this bracelet come from?" Wang Yueying felt very strange, because the original owner did not have this bracelet in his memory at all.

"Mother, it was picked up in the yard" The pavilion was holding Wang Yueying's hand and shouting, "It's good-looking, my mother wears it, my mother wears it." ”

"Mother, this one I dug up when I was digging the ground, under the old plane tree in the yard." Xun'er explained in a low voice, "I see that my mother has dug up the ground behind me and wants to help." After speaking, he lowered his head nervously and pinched his fingers.

Wang Yueying suddenly felt very sad, thinking that Xun'er, who was only five years old, dragging a hoe higher than others to dig the ground, tears couldn't help but flow out, hugged them and said, "Thank you." ”

Wang Yueying put on the bracelet and wiped her tears, "Is it okay for my mother to make braised pork for you to eat at night?" ”

"Mother, what is braised pork?" The pavilion looked up and asked curiously.

"Braised pork is very delicious meat." Wang Yueying didn't know how to explain it.

"Mother, the pavilion wants to eat braised pork." When the museum heard that it was delicious, he immediately said that he wanted to eat it.

"Mother will sow the seeds first, and then I will make braised pork for you to eat."

When Wang Yueying was about to sow seeds, Song Hai came over and took out thirty Wen to Wang Yueying: "This is the money from the sale of rabbit fur before." ”

Wang Yueying took the money: "Thank you, Brother Song." "Wang Yueying heard Song Hai's gossip when she was riding in an ox cart today, and she knew his name.

"No, you're welcome, then I'll go first." Song Hai scratched his head and left.

Wang Yueying wanted to keep him for dinner, but Song Hai walked a few steps and slowed down, but as if he hadn't heard, he continued to walk back. Strange person, does he also think that I am an ominous person, or because I am a **. Wang Yueying's brows tightened slightly, just looking at Song Hai's back.
