Chapter 592: Calling for Rice (23)
The butler loaded the meat, and the man took the basket back, and there was still meat on the board, and he was waiting.
The fat man with the pipe was counting two baskets of meat, and he counted the money and remembered it, and told the butler the amount of money. The butler is putting the remaining meat on the board and putting it in the scale. He listened, and stopped counting the two baskets of meat, the same as the fat man with the pipe. He said, "Remember, there's still meat here?" ”
"You say, I remember." The fat man smoked his dry pipe, back.
The remaining meat on the board was put on the scales, and this time there was not a lot of meat, not as good as the last two. This time, the meat could not fit half a basket. The housekeeper carried the meat and weighed it himself, and made the scales with one hand and the other. The arm carrying the scale is shaking, and the meat on the scale is still relatively heavy for one arm.
This weighs the scale hand shaking, it is not easy to weigh, the scale rod moves, and the weighing rope is not easy to fix.
The fat man with the dry pipe asked, "Can you do it without leaving home?" ”
"Okay. No, you can help me. The butler weighed the scales, shaking with one arm and making the scales with the other.
The yellow head was wrinkled, waiting for his flesh, and when he saw the butler's arm shaking slowly, he said to the fat man: "You help him, he is slow alone." ”
Smoking a dry pipe, the fat man wanted to reach out and ask the butler, "Do you need help?" ”
The butler's arm shook and he couldn't say it well, and the more he couldn't say it, the more he wanted to weigh it. He said, "I'll do it myself." ”
The meat was heavy, and the housekeeper weighed it a few times, and his arm seemed to have lost strength if it had lost blood, and with a bang, he put the scale down.
"Shall I help you?" The fat man with the pipe in his mouth took the pipe out of his mouth and looked at the meat on the scale.
"You're here to help me." It's hard to weigh yourself, so the housekeeper asks the fat man with a dry pipe to help him.
The dry pipe bites the dry pipe and helps the housekeeper carry it with both hands.
The fat man picked up the scale, someone helped, and the housekeeper only made the scale rod with the scale.
If someone helps, it will be called. The butler pinched the scales and showed the fat man with the pipe in his mouth.
The pipe was smoking, and the fat man still looked at it like that, with one eye open and the other closed. He looked at it and nodded, "yes, okay." The fat man put down the scale, took the dry pipe, and counted the money in his mouth.
The housekeeper pinched the weighing rope by hand, and he looked at how many catties he saw again, and put the weighing stone and the weighing rod to calculate how much.
Both of them counted verbally, and when they read it out loud, the people next to them could hear it clearly.
The two of them counted three times, and said with a wrinkled yellow head: "Don't count it if you two are right, just count this number." ”
The butler and the pipe looked at each other, and the butler said, "Okay, that's the number, I'll erase it for you." ”
The housekeeper wiped the odds off, and he said, "How much was the last two times?" ”
He took a puff of the pipe, took the pipe out of his mouth, and told the butler the amount of money. After hearing this, the housekeeper asked the person with a fold on the side of the yellow head: "Is this the number?" ”
nodded, and replied with a fold in his face: "It's this number." ”
The housekeeper calculates how much money is weighed three times, this is addition and subtraction, and the housekeeper can calculate it. The housekeeper is counting, and the dry pipe smoker is also counting, not only the two of them, but also the one with a yellow face and a folded head. They're counting, and the two guys in the back are counting.
The two treasures and the official Luo Zi on the side listened to the money and calculated the total amount.
The butler counted several times, but it was all the same number, and he told the fat man who smoked the pipe. The fat man counted, and the butler counted, and he reached into the money bag to take out the money.
Some of the others counted this number, and some didn't. I didn't calculate it, and I recalculated it myself, did I miscalculate? The miscalculation was recalculated, and sure enough, it was a miscalculation. Those who miscalculated are blaming themselves, and they didn't learn math well.
The fat man who smoked the pipe took out the money, counted it, and gave it to the butler. The housekeeper takes the money and puts it in the purse. The fat man saw the housekeeper's money bag and said, "The housekeeper makes a lot of money?" ”
The housekeeper smiled, "This money is not earned for me, and after I earn the money, I will hand it over to the village government." The horse belongs to the village government, and the horse is killed by the village owner, and the village owner lets it be sold. ”
"Ahh The fat man took the dry pipe out of his mouth and blinked.
The meat was still on the scales, and the butler said, "Come on, man, put this meat on it." The butler reached for the meat on the scale.
The man reached for the basket and asked the housekeeper to decorate it.
The butler is loading the meat, and the guy is seeing. He thought he could, so he turned around and reached for another basket.
And behold, the butler put the meat in the basket.
After loading the meat, the butler beat the thugs, glanced at the scale, and said, "It's over." ”
The fat man who smoked the dry pipe took a puff of cigarette, put the dry pipe in his mouth, and clenched his fist at the butler: "Butler, farewell." ”
The butler clasped his fist at him and replied, "Walk slowly." ”
The pipe smoker shook his fists, took the pipe and turned to the man, "Go." ”
The man answered, carrying the basket on his shoulder and following behind the shopkeeper.
The fat man with the pipe went away with his buddy. "Butler, is it my turn?" With a yellow face and a folded head, he took a small step towards the carriage. He looked at each piece of horse meat that had been cut on the cart, and said, "Steward, you will pick the meat and cut it for me, and cut two baskets." ”
The housekeeper moved his two arms, twisted his waist, and cut the flesh, and his arms were sore and his waist was sore. And when he had cut off his flesh, he went to the inn and called for food for those who had returned. The housekeeper went to pick up the knife, and at this time two villagers came, a man and an old man. The man asked, "How did you sell this meat?" ”
"Two copper plates for a pound." The housekeeper replied.
"What kind of meat is this, not like pork?" The man said.
"It's horse meat." The butler went to see it, took a knife, and cut the horse's flesh with a folded yellow face.
"How much is that intestine a pound?" The old man asked, pointing to the intestines.
"Two copper plates for a pound." The butler cut the meat and looked up.
"I want it." The old man immediately took out the money.
The old man asked for the intestines, took out the money, and the housekeeper went to get the intestines. He dragged the intestines, pinched them with his hands, and squeezed the feces out of the old man, and when the feces came out, it smelled.
The old man smiled and said, "You are really a good man, there is in your intestines, call it a scale." Squeeze the and it's lighter. ”
The housekeeper squeezed the feces out of the old man's intestines, then put the intestines on the scale and weighed them for the old man.
The intestines are not heavy, the housekeeper weighed it, told the old man how heavy, and showed the scale to the old man. When the old man saw it, he replied to the butler. The housekeeper counted the money with the scale and told the old man the money. The old man nodded, counted the money in his hand, and handed it to the butler. The housekeeper put down the scale in his hand, took the money, and stuffed it into the money bag.
"Tie me a rope." The old man said.
Needless to say, the butler will also give a tether. The butler took the rope and tied it to the intestines, tied the rope and handed it to the old man, saying, "Take it." ”
The old man took the intestines, smiled at the butler, and left with them.
Looking at the man, the housekeeper still has something to do, and the one who came back is still waiting, waiting for him to call food to the inn. He didn't really want to sell meat at this time. He took a knife and cut the flesh of the yellow face with a folded head.
The man pointed out, "How do you sell the land for that backbone?" ”
Looking at the spine, the housekeeper replied: "Two copper plates for a catty." ”
"Weigh me five pounds." The man wanted to weigh five catties of backbones and go home to eat braised bones.
"You wait a while, I'll cut him first, he came first, I've been waiting for a while." After the housekeeper finished speaking, he cut the meat with a folded face and a yellow head.
