Chapter 588: Selling Melons (2)

"How can I give watermelon for free?"

"Is it really a free watermelon?"

People gathered around and asked, "What is the crowd?" Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"If you want that watermelon, just put your hand on it, and then give me a weight, and it must be two. As long as it is within two taels of the actual weight, it doesn't matter whether it is more than two taels or less than two taels. This watermelon can be submitted for free, and I don't want any of them. Of course, if you guess wrong, you have to buy this watermelon for six cents per catty. According to what Zhu Ping'an said, the old man who sold melons said loudly to everyone.

"Two taels more, two taels less, you can take away the watermelon for free?" Someone in the crowd asked.

"Yes, as long as you guess correctly, take it away for free, and don't want any of them." The melon seller nodded vigorously.

"The big guys have heard it, they can all testify, I'll come, I'll come first." A man was the first to stand up, and if he had a advantage, he didn't take advantage of it, so he specially picked the largest one, checked it with his hand, and reported a weight, "Fifteen catties." ”

For the first time, the old man who sold melons was also a little nervous.

At the urging of the man, the old man who sold melons weighed it in front of everyone with a rod scale, fifteen catties and four taels.

The error is four or two, and the guess is wrong. Because there is a word in advance, if you guess correctly, you will take it away for free, and if you guess wrong, you will spend money to buy it. Therefore, the man had to pay for the watermelon back. Six wen per catty, a total of 92 wen, the odd was erased, and 90 wen was collected. Touching the heavy copper coins in his pocket, the old man who sold melons smiled in his heart.

"Hey, it's just a little bit."

Everyone sighed with regret.

People always want to take advantage, although the first man failed, but he almost took the watermelon for free, and more people couldn't wait to start picking melons.

The second person hugged a watermelon that was a little smaller than the one just now, checked it, and reported a weight of fourteen and a half pounds.

weighed it, fourteen catties and two taels, and then had to buy the watermelon as well.

The third person was lucky, picked a watermelon, and estimated a thirteen catties. After weighing, it was just thirteen catties, so this person took the watermelon away in the envious eyes of everyone, and walked majestically with the watermelon. So, everyone who heard it rushed to the watermelon stall one after another.

The success of the third person ignited everyone's enthusiasm at once, and more people challenged them.

The challengers were one after another, but the third person was lucky and took the watermelon for free, and the rest of the people failed, three or two errors, half a catty error, and a pound error, so they paid for the watermelon one by one.

There were even a few competitive ones who didn't even guess three or five times, so they bought all three or five watermelons home.

Soon, in less than an hour, the melon seller sold out all the carts of watermelons, and even the smallest one was left. Not only that, but people also asked the old man if he had any melons at home, and if he would come here to sell melons tomorrow, saying that he would come to buy them next time.

The money bag brought by the old man who sold melons was not enough to hold copper coins, and the more copper coins were simply wrapped in clothes, which was heavy.

The old man who sold melons looked at the clothes that packed money, grinned, and couldn't fit them.

The maids and mothers on the second floor of the opposite restaurant were all stunned, and their small mouths could be stuffed into eggs, starting from the sale of the first melon, the big mouth could not be closed, looking at the scene of selling melons outside the window, one by one as if they had been struck by lightning, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time......

Li Niang's eyes widened in surprise, staring out the window without moving, unable to speak with her mouth open.

Only Miss Yan Er was not surprised at all, biting her red lip and scolding, "Cunning thief!" ”

"Huh? Where is he? How is it gone. ”

When the little maid came back to her senses, she looked out the window and shouted in surprise.

Then the other little maids also looked out the window, the old man who sold melons outside was still there, and his cart of watermelons was all sold out, but Zhu Ping'an, who had just been despised and deceived by them, was gone.

"He doesn't seem to have bought a melon."

"It seems that hey, just a cart of watermelons was sold out, and he didn't leave a single watermelon."

The little maidens thought for a moment, and then suddenly they were all stunned, as if they had thought of something.

"That, that, I really want to see it, just when a lot of people came to guess the melon, he seemed to leave, empty-handed...... No, it's like ...... still holding two books," a little maid raised her little hand and whispered.

So, the little maids became more silent one by one, and their little faces couldn't help but feel a little hot. Just now, I despised that person for cheating melons, being unproductive, shameless, and shameless, but as a result, people didn't take advantage of a melon......

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty......"

The old man who sold melons looked at the money from selling melons, grinned and smirked for a long time, and after a while came back to his senses and went to Zhu Ping'an to express his gratitude, but when he turned his head, he found that Zhu Ping'an was gone, and he couldn't help shouting several times in a hurry.

It was the person from the stall next to him who told him that Zhu Ping'an had already left.

"Your Excellency...... Benefactor, benefactor ......" The old man who sold melons shouted a few times, looked at the empty car with no watermelons, and couldn't help but pat his head hard with remorse.

Not a single melon is gone!

Adults want to buy melons, twice, but what about themselves, they only think about themselves, and they don't even leave a melon for adults.

But the adults gave themselves a way to sell melons without any concealment, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, this method is enough to benefit them endlessly, at least this year's hot spring watermelons are not worried about not being able to sell.

Uncle Buymelon's eyes were a little moist, and his face was hot, he really blushed for himself, at the beginning, not only did he not believe in the good intentions of adults, but also scolded adults in his heart. I thought that adults wanted to plot their own watermelons, but they turned out to be ...... It's really panicked.

Adults are adults.

I'm a villain!

What are you doing, hey, I'm really blushing. When you come to sell melons tomorrow, you must bring the biggest and sweetest melons to the adults...... I just don't know if the adults will come tomorrow, and I don't even know the names of the adults.

Good official, the old man who sold melons looked at the direction of Zhu Ping'an's departure, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. If there were more such good officials, how good.

"Interesting ......"

The charming Liniang stood in front of the window and looked out the window, looking at the direction of someone's departure, a pair of watery eyes flowed like spring water, like a little red lips slightly hooked, exhaling like an orchid. (To be continued.) )
