Chapter 16 Entering the City to Sell Charcoal

As soon as the morning dawned, Yi Niang got up early to get busy and put the charcoal in order, and if the restaurants in the market were bought by 30 catties of charcoal, plus the previous earning of 400 yuan, the money has always been enough for a bumper year this year.

Yi Niang took a bamboo basket and carefully put all the charcoal in it, the price of this large piece of charcoal is better than the broken and scattered zero charcoal, the price is much higher!

Liang Chuan just got up from the bed, and Yi Niang's rice just got out of the pot, and said, "Otherwise, I'll give you a duck egg to eat, it's fragrant!" ”

Liang Chuan looked at the charcoal ash on the ground and then looked at the duck egg in Yi Niang's hand, suddenly thought of something, and said to Yi Niang: "Yi Niang, have you ever eaten a black duck egg, or something called Songhua egg?" ”

Yi Niang is no longer surprised, and now her husband is too creative, and she gives them different surprises every day, but this egg. How can it be black?

"Of course I did."

Liang Chuan was covered in bruises by a basin of cold water, and originally wanted to say that if they hadn't eaten Songhua eggs, they would have made them themselves and sold them in the market, wouldn't they be able to sell them at a good price!

"Isn't the duck egg black when it is broken, and the duck egg that was broken when I was hungry before, it is the bark and grass roots."

Liang Chuan was overjoyed, it turned out that the black egg that Yi Niang understood was not the same thing as what he said! That means she hasn't eaten it!

In order to prove his guess, he said vividly: "It's not the kind of rotten duck eggs that are broken, but a kind of egg that smells fragrant, the kernels are dark and shiny, and have white patterns!" ”

Yi Niang shook her head: "I've never seen this kind of egg!" ”

"Great!"

Liang Chuan seems to have seen a good way to get rich again!

"How much is a duck egg on the market?"

"One copper plate, one for another."

"That's not very expensive, let's buy more duck eggs when we go to the market to sell charcoal!" Believe it or not, one duck egg turns into two duck eggs for you to come back! ”

"Are you going to lay eggs? Come on, how do you turn one egg into two? ”

Liang Chuan said mysteriously: "When the time comes, you will know, let's go to the town first to sell the charcoal to earn some capital before we can buy eggs, one to two is not so fast!" ”

Helu is the most remote of the four villages on the north bank of Nanxi and the closest to the foot of Hulu Mountain. There are also three villages on the side: Shanshui, Lianqian and Chihe, and the situation of these three villages is much better than that of Helu, and the population is much larger than that of Helu.

There is a stone bridge on Nanxi - Shima Bridge, which is also the only bridge for the four villages on the north bank to cross the river into the city. There is also a small temple Longshui Temple at the head of the bridge, which is dedicated to the dragon king in Nanxi! The Dragon King used to send out a lot of water every year, and every time he had to take a lot of lives!

The last time I entered the city, Liangchuan patronized all the way to be careful under his feet, he and Yi Niang were not easy, one was lame and one was carrying a heavy burden, and they walked extremely hard, so they didn't pay attention to the scenery on the road, just remember that they went to the market and walked extremely hard, and when they came back, they talked and laughed, and the time was passed quickly, but the day's work was gone.

It can be imagined that this road is really long!

Now that there is one more recruit brother, thirty catties of charcoal can still stand it on him. In this way, the pressure on Liang Chuan and Yi Niang is much less.

The lower pavilion is the largest restaurant in this small village of Fengshan, there are three floors, it is the largest building in this bazaar, the merchants from the south to the north walk here, the sky is dark and generally live down, finally can make people feel refreshing and tidy.

About this restaurant said that many people together to invest in the operation, the ancient inn is a money-making business, aside from Sun Erniang Zhang Qing's illegal business of doing human flesh business and robbing money, not to mention, it is Pu Neng people can make do with most of the land temple in the wilderness can be one night, can afford to live in the inn is definitely rich people!

The shopkeeper of the inn is surnamed Ye, before the Yi Niang sent Chai He to the bazaar was picked up by their family, generally this kind of thing is just a guy to deal with it, that day Yi Niang was lucky, stood in the back kitchen door of the pavilion for a long time, attracted the attention of the Ye shopkeeper, came out to see, hey, this firewood is really good, dry and wet just firewood is the thickness of the small arm, and then ask the price, a pound is only two pennies.

Ye shopkeeper scolded these rabbit cubs for usually eating rebates, he didn't read the account books on weekdays, those firewood accounts were clearly written, a pound of firewood five pennies, asked Yi Niang if he deliberately pushed the price so low, Yi Niang said that most of the bazaar is two to three pennies, can give five cents that is the shopkeeper's grace!

It is naturally impossible for Shopkeeper Ye to sell things for two cents for five cents, and after thinking about it, he knows that these guys have secretly eaten kickbacks. Although one pound of firewood is cheap, the amount needed in a day is not a small amount, and hundreds of catties can be burned casually a day.

Seeing that it was not easy for a girl to carry nearly 100 catties of firewood on her back, she bought all the firewood of Yiniang in one go.

The difference between a penny is a world of difference, Ye shopkeeper saw that Yi Niang sold firewood and asked her if she sold charcoal, selling firewood and selling charcoal are generally one family, now the weather is cold, many guests in the hotel complained that the second half of the night covered with a quilt in the house is still as cold as an ice kiln!

Fengshan is surrounded by mountains on three sides, can it not be cold at night?

As a shopkeeper, he is most afraid that the guests will not come, so in order to solve this problem, he will ask around who sells charcoal.

Yi Niang's original charcoal was picked out of the stove, but I didn't expect that now Liang Chuan actually knows how to burn charcoal with higher efficiency!

It's only been a day's work, and Yi Niang took her brother Zhao and carried thirty catties of charcoal to the pavilion again.

Thirty catties of charcoal, although the weight is not heavy, but the volume is not small, about the same size as eighty or ninety catties of firewood, and it is much easier to carry!

Shopkeeper Ye looked at the charcoal on the back of Brother Zhao, the pieces were very large, and there was almost no broken charcoal in the formation of the wooden blocks, but I didn't know how to burn it!

"Can you let me burn it, in case it doesn't burn for a long time, I won't be able to collect this charcoal!"

Liang Chuan said with a smile: "This is natural, you can take the charcoal to the room and try it, just burn such a small piece can be burned for two or three hours, put three or five pieces, enough to pass the time of a night, that is, it is dawn, but the brazier is still hot!" ”

The shopkeeper Ye saw that Liang Chuan's exit was extraordinary, and he couldn't help but look at him more, he hadn't seen this person when he sold charcoal last time, he could speak well, and he looked very clever, it would be a pity if he only made a living by collecting firewood and burning charcoal!

"Then let me give it a try! I left this basket of charcoal first, how much is it? ”

"Thank you Shopkeeper Ye, this is thirty catties of fine silver bone charcoal, the first time you meet, you should be the shopkeeper to take care of your old man's filial piety, no money!"

What the! The charcoal that I finally carried was sent out for nothing? Yi Niang and Zhao Di looked at Zhang San incomprehensibly, as if they were Yi Niang, she thought about it for a while, didn't she have to buy duck eggs, then she had to sell these coals to have money to buy duck eggs, and she couldn't go back to He Lu to get money!

Shopkeeper Ye's eyes lit up, this little brother is a manufacturable material, he knows a lot about the principles of doing business, and he knows how to deal with people, such a posterity is rare in this small place of Fengshan!

The shopkeeper Ye smiled: "This shopkeeper is not short of your basket of charcoal, one thing is one thing, so let's do it, a pound of charcoal will be calculated for you at the price of twenty cents, you go to the counter with me to get it, I will let the guy start burning charcoal, see if the fire is prosperous, you will go to other places for a turn, and come back to me after an hour, I will give you an answer!" ”

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Ye! There is no hurry to get this money, and when we come back, I believe that the shopkeeper Ye will be very satisfied with our charcoal! ”

Liang Chuan likes such a person, he will not take advantage of the poor, he is fair and distinguishes between public and private, and he instantly has a good impression of this shopkeeper!

The three of them left the lower pavilion, and Yi Niang asked urgently on the way: "If the shopkeeper Ye had collected that basket of charcoal just now, then we wouldn't have worked in vain!" ”

Liang Chuan smiled: "How can you work in vain? Didn't you try it yourself last night, what is the effect of the charcoal? Did you get a good night's sleep? If the effect is good, you are not afraid that others will not want it, just a basket of charcoal, how much can it be worth? What Jianghu people haven't seen in the south and north of the Ye shopkeeper, wouldn't it be better if he received that little benefit? Is there any reason to refuse our charcoal? Isn't this the so-called short-handedness? ”

"Then how do you expect that Shopkeeper Ye will not harvest those charcoals in vain?"

"The eighty or ninety catties of firewood you carried before, you bid two pennies a catty, and the shopkeeper Ye can directly accept those small bargains, but he still gave you an extra penny, just rush this old shopkeeper is a good person, how can it be the kind of person who is greedy for small profits!"

"That's right."

The three of them had no money in their hands, although there were many items in the market, but they had no money and could only watch, and finally an hour passed, and Liang Chuan immediately returned to the lower pavilion with two people!

Shopkeeper Ye was waiting in front of the door early!

"You're here!"

"Shopkeeper Ye!" Liang Chuan saluted.

"I tried the charcoal just now, and it worked very well! I want them all! How much you have on hand, I'll take it all! ”

Liang Chuan was overjoyed in his heart, but his face did not show it: "We still have a lot on hand, but we are short of manpower and can only send a small part over every day, how much does your building need?" ”

"There will be a period of time before this cold weather enters spring, and thirty catties of charcoal a day is not enough, can you send me a hundred catties every day!"

If you weigh 100 pounds, you can carry 50 pounds per person, which is not too heavy!

"No problem! Guarantee a hundred catties of charcoal every day, that is, how to settle this account? ”

"How do you want to settle the bill?"

"We are also a small business, do a little loss to do a business on credit, you see that this is not a shopkeeper, you pay me three hundred pounds of money in advance every time, the money is in place I will send you charcoal, if you don't want this charcoal one day, don't give money to it, you don't have to be afraid that we will run away with money, we are bound to suffer a loss when we go to the yamen to fight a lawsuit!"

Shopkeeper Ye looked at Liang Chuan's market appearance, and laughed heartily: "Little brother doesn't know what to call it, it seems that he has some ways to operate!" ”

"Under the surname Liang, the third in the family, a single name and a Sichuan character!"

"Okay, you Liang Sanlang, there is no shortage of manpower in my store, otherwise I will accept you to work in the store, and I will rely on you to pay you three hundred catties of charcoal in advance, and you have to send this charcoal to me on time!"

"It's nature!"

Liang Chuan followed Shopkeeper Ye to the account office and received six yuan and six hundred yuan! This money is so big, and the amount in your hand is not ordinary!

Grandma's, finally made the first money!
