Chapter 39: Shopping

When Qiu Ning saw the ancient scales, he was amazed, a thick and long scale pole, simple and straight, is a small tree. It was carried directly by a few big men, and then there was a shrewd goatee's account room adjusting the scales. And all the grains are weighed in this way, and then the bookkeeper records them, and then goes to the counter in the back to count the silver.

Although there are a lot of people in line, and everyone brings a lot of millet to sell, the whole process is orderly, and? Basically, there is no random queue, and there are no unruly ones. It seems that the discipline of the ancients was quite strong.

Because Sister Wang and Qiu Ning came early, they didn't have to wait in line for long, and the millet passed the scale, and then they could go directly to the counter to get the silver. Qiu Ning watched the other account room crackle and calculate, and immediately calculated the silver for Sister Wang. Sister Wang bought a total of five taels of silver, which is already a good harvest. The millet at home has not been completely bought, and now I have bought a part of it, and some of it is put away first, and if the price rises, I will sell it quickly, and if the market is not right, I will sell it quickly. Farmers have been working hard for more than half a year to exchange these grains for silver, so how to sell millet is also very particular, and now that the new rice has just come out, everyone will be in a hurry to sell the millet. Therefore, the price will not be too high, if the conditions allow, you can keep a part of the millet and not be in a hurry to sell, and wait until the new rice is almost harvested.

The yield of which fruit is not high, and the rice grain store will continue to harvest millet at a high price. When the time comes, there will be no grain left to sell, and you can earn a little more. Sister Wang sells millet like this every year, and even Brother Wang says that Sister Wang is smart. Qiu Ning feels that Sister Wang is completely an economist, and demand determines price. Now there are more people selling, and the price is naturally lower, but if there are fewer people selling, the price will naturally rise.

After Sister Wang received the money, she left the wheelbarrow behind the rice grain store, and there was a young man in the rice grain store from Wangjia Village. Sister Wang also specially told Qiu Ning that this is the youngest son of who's family in Wangjia Village, who is very good and very motivated. Qiu Ning knew what Sister Wang meant, but she didn't have this plan at all, and she couldn't live up to Sister Wang's wishes, so she used the excuse that she wanted to go shopping on the street and asked Sister Wang to take her shopping.

Sister Wang smiled, knowing that this girl was avoiding these things again, forget it, don't hurry and take your time. Besides, maybe Qiu Ning will meet the one he likes, this man should marry the woman and marry him, and when the time comes, Qiu Ning will definitely be able to meet the one he likes. Sister Wang really treats Qiu Ning as a sister now, she is kind-hearted, she is also a person, and she is quick to do things, she really doesn't know what kind of person is worthy of Qiu Ning. Sister Wang wants to buy some daily necessities, such as oil, salt, and other things. Usually it is difficult for country people to enter the city once, so once they enter the city, they will buy the necessities of life for several months. Sister Wang is naturally no exception, Qiu Ning accompanied Sister Wang all the way to buy it, and the two of them were full of screws. But the face is very happy, how to say that shopping is a woman's biggest hobby!

When Sister Wang looked at the flower cloth shop, she hesitated for a while, but still pulled a few feet of flower cloth and a few feet of cyan fabric. It is rare for a family to make a pair of clothes all year round, and this year's harvest is good, so they should add a few clothes to their men, and when they return to their parents' house in a few days, they will also have to make a new dress. Qiu Ning helped Sister Wang pick out the clothes, and after Sister Wang paid, Sister Wang said that she wanted to buy some food for Bao'er. Bao'er is almost a year old now, and she can eat something good.

Tyunin only had a small packet of things in his hand, which was bought at the grocery store, and the reason why Tyunin bought the candy was that he planned to use some sugar to go back and make some snacks to try, and of course he needed eggs, but Tyunin wanted to buy it in the village. Each family has chickens, and the sweets made from fresh eggs are even more delicious. Sister Wang thinks that it is normal for the girl's family to love sweets, and it is best to buy some candy and drink it when she goes back to her childhood.

However, when an old woman set up a dim sum stall, Qiu Ning actually bought dim sum of various flavors. This made Sister Wang very curious, Qiu Ning didn't look like she would spend money indiscriminately, but was it too much to buy so many snacks at once. If you want to say that the girl's family should love flowers more, even if you eat a few less dim sum, you must buy an extra foot of flower cloth! But Qiu Ning bought so many dim sum at once, isn't it a bit too much.

Sister Wang tugged at Qiu Ning's sleeve and reminded in a low voice: "Qiu Ning, this snack has a lot of silver, you better buy less!"

Qiu Ning smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, Sister Wang can rest assured." "Actually, Qiu Ning buys all kinds of dim sum just to try the way the ancients made dim sum. Since it is inconvenient to ask people directly, the best way is to buy other people's dim sum and go back to taste it, and then naturally know how to do it. Qiu Ning has tried countless dim sum with this mouth, but as long as the dim sum is in the mouth, Qiu Ning can immediately know how these dim sum are made and what raw materials are. That's why Qiu Ning will spend a lot of money to buy all kinds of dim sum, firstly, so that she can taste the taste and know what the ingredients are, and secondly, she can use these dim sum as a thank you gift to thank Sister Wang's family for taking care of them.

Sister Wang saw that Qiu Ning insisted, so she couldn't say anything more, she just felt that after she went back, she must talk about this girl. The girl's family must save more money and dress up more, otherwise where can they talk about good family affairs, without good family affairs, this life will be over.

After the two bought dim sum, Sister Wang took Qiu Ning around the city again, and at noon, the two of them begged for two bowls of water with the steamed buns brought into the city from their own house, and solved the lunch problem. Qiu Ning also noticed that there are several large dim sum shops in the city, whether it is the location or the decoration of the shop, it is the best. According to Sister Wang, the dim sum in these shops is only for the rich to eat, and the poor rarely spend that unjustly money. You must know that the money to buy that snack is enough for the poor to eat big fish and meat.

Sister Wang and Qiu Ning put the things they had bought on the wheelbarrow, and then the two of them began to return to Wangjia Village together. Sister Wang endured the question that she didn't say, and then she said to Qiu Ning, "Qiu Ning, Sister Wang doesn't know what you think, but this silver is not spent like you." Look at your good girl's family, one doesn't buy rouge gouache, and the other doesn't buy clothes materials. But buying so many snacks took half of your work! This is not good, you have to dress up well and save more dowry, so that you can marry into a good family. ”

Qiu Ning knew that Sister Wang would say this, Qiu Ning didn't plan to answer this question head-on, and directly hit Ma Haha. "Sister Wang, do you think I can raise some chickens?"

Sister Wang looked curious: "There are chickens at home, but there are not too many, if you want to raise chickens, let your mother catch more chickens in the second half of the year, and raise as many as you want, anyway, the yard has been empty, and the chickens have to worry about what they eat." ”

It is true that chickens also eat it, but the millet people are not enough to eat, so naturally they can't call the chickens. So chickens can only eat some vegetable leaves or something, no wonder there are many vegetable leaves on the edge of the chicken coop at home?
