Chapter 9 Selling Fish in the County
The city wall of Chaoxian County looked a little dilapidated, and a team of ten soldiers cruised around the city wall, patrolling around with bows and arrows on their backs.
Two soldiers armed with spears stood at the gates of the city, bringing a bit of majesty to the slightly dilapidated county town.
Above is the huge word Chaoxian, exuding a faint bloody atmosphere. Let the people queuing up to enter the city can't help but tremble in their hearts. The world is full of thieves, and in recent years, the Yellow Turban bandits have been rampant, although Zhang Jiao's gangsters have been shown to the public, but the rest are still there. It makes all parts of the country panic all day long.
Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing each carried two large baskets of fish with flat poles, and slowly walked forward behind Jia Nian.
"Village chief, if you enter this city gate, you will be Chao County," Tang Yanqing said to Jia Nian.
Jia Nian smiled at Tang Yanqing, looked ahead, and saw that there were traces of blood on the city wall that had not dissipated, so he showed a puzzled look: "There is actually blood on the city wall?" ”
"There are always some blind thieves in the chaos of the world, although there are only 100 county soldiers in Chao County, but they are all local regular troops. The remnants of the Yellow Turban and the water thieves naturally couldn't get any benefits, and they lost their lives in vain," Tang Gaoming said proudly to Jia Nian.
Tang Yanqing looked around and urged Tang Gaoming and Jia Nian: "Anyway, seeing blood is always unlucky, and it is the best policy for us to sell the fish and return to the village as soon as possible."
"En" Jia Nian responded to Tang Yanqing and Tang Gaoming, and at the same time quickened his pace.
The three of them walked through the city gate and walked inside, although Chaoxian was small but full of organs. There are all kinds of county offices and bazaars.
Pedestrians came and went, frequently stopping at the fish basket carried by Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing, and then they didn't come forward to ask as if they were afraid of something.
Jia Nian walked into the market and saw an empty stall, so he stopped.
"Put all the fish baskets on the ground, and we'll sell them here," Jia Nian said to the two of them.
Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing looked at each other suspiciously: "We are not businessmen, so we can't set up stalls here."
"You're not, but the village chief is," Jia Nian said to Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing.
Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then showed a look of disbelief: "The village and the village chief are businessmen."
"Can this still be a lie?" Jia Nian replied to Tang Yanqing and Tang Gaoming.
Then, without waiting for them to reply, he instructed them: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and set up a stall"
"Alas, Haole" Tang Yanqing and Tang Gaoming woke up like a dream and said to Jia Nian.
A virtual interface emerges: discover the stall, whether it is a stall or not.
"Yes," Jia Nian said subconsciously.
The light flashed, and a white cloth slowly spread out on the stall in front of him. Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing quickly took out the fish in their hands one by one and put them on.
"Come and take a look, the fish you just caught, don't miss it when you pass by" Jia Nian shouted at the pedestrians coming and going, and the more he shouted, the more energetic he became.
Tang Gaoming also shouted at the top of his voice: "Come and take a look, the fish you just caught, don't miss it when you pass by"
"Come and take a look, the fish you just caught, don't miss it when you pass by" Tang Yanqing also shouted vigorously.
Jia Nian looked at the heads of the two, and saw Jia Nian's buddy appearing on it, these four words.
The voice seemed to have a strange magic, and after a while, a deep voice came from the front: "What is the price of your fish seller?"
"I wonder if you want a big fish or a small fish? Do you want grass carp or silver carp or crucian carp," Jia Nian said to the visitor.
The man looked the fish on the stall up and down, and then said to him, "How do you sell grass carp and big fish, and how do you sell small fish?" ”
"Ten catties of grass carp are 110 yuan, five catties of grass carp are 60 yuan, and one catty of grass carp is 15 yuan" Jia Nian looked around at the stalls and saw that all the quotations on those stalls appeared in front of him, so he quickly compared them in his heart. Look at the man, quick quotes.
The man shook his head when he heard this offer: "It's expensive, and other people's fish are only sold for 10 yuan a catty." You're good, just sell it for 15 bucks."
"Other people's fish was collected from a fisherman, and the fish was left for an unknown number of days. We just caught this fish ourselves, how can it be the same," Jia Nian said to the man.
Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing listened to Jia Nianbao's price, and their eyes widened in surprise.
The man shook his head: "Don't buy it, don't buy it"
As soon as the words fell, the man looked in the other direction, and saw that the fishmonger in that place had just finished selling and closing the stall, so he showed a bitter smile.
"How about it, my price is fair," Jia Nian said with a grin.
The man looked around, and saw that he couldn't find a second fish seller, so he could only look at Jia Nian: "If you can make it cheaper, I'll buy it."
"I don't know how cheap you want," Jia Nian asked rhetorically at the man.
The man thought quickly: "I don't want you to sell it for 10 yuan a pound of fish, so be it." Two five-pound grass carp, how about I give you 110 dollars"
"Our fish has just been caught," Jia Nian emphasized to the man.
The man gritted his teeth fiercely: "Forget it, 120 yuan is 120 yuan"
"Tang Gaoming gives fish" Seeing that the man took out the money, Jia Nian commanded Tang Gaoming.
Tang Gaoming reacted at this time, and hurriedly took out two five-pound grass carp from the stall and handed them over.
"You lose two grass carp and get 120 gold"
"Congratulations on closing a deal"
Reaching out to take the 120 money handed by Tang Gaoming, a smile appeared on the corner of Jia Nian's mouth.
The man carried two fish, looked up and down, and his expression gradually eased: "This fish looks okay, it seems that you should have caught it."
"What was salvaged?" A group of people asked questions of the man.
The man looked around at the group of people, perhaps because of acquaintances, and swung the two fish he was holding in his hand: "This fish was just caught, although it is a little expensive, but it should taste good."
"Where did you buy it? I'll buy some and try it too," one asked the man.
The man pointed to Jia Nian's stall: "That's it, if you want to buy it, go early, I just looked at their fish and don't seem to have much."
"Thank you" The group of people hurriedly expressed their gratitude, and then quickly walked to Jia Nian's booth.
Looking at the group of people who came over, Tang Yanqing and Tang Gaoming hurriedly asked with a smile: "Do you want to buy fish?" ”
"Well, we're here to buy fish," everyone said to Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing.
Then he looked at the stalls and began to choose one by one.
"I want this five-pound grass carp"
"I want three one-pound grass carp"
"I want two ten-pound grass carp"
"I want this fifteen-pound silver carp"
"Weller, we'll get fish for you"
Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing quickly took out the fish one by one and handed them to those who bought the fish. Jia Nian was busy collecting money, followed by dense news.
"You lose a grass carp and get 60 gold"
"Congratulations on closing a deal"
"You lose the three-tailed grass carp and get 45 gold"
"Congratulations on closing a deal"
"You lose a silver carp and get 300 gold"
"Congratulations on closing a deal"
"You lose a crucian carp and get 200 money"
"Congratulations on closing a deal"
Looking at the fish that were sold and the copper coins that gradually increased, Jia Nian, Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing almost smiled.
