"Fifty Wen, I'll take both of them!" Lin Meiyi pointed to the two bundles of kudzu on the ground and said.
The stall owner smiled bitterly, "Girl, if you don't bargain like this, you will cut me in half as soon as you come, so why don't I take it directly to the textile workshop and sell it to the owner?" ”
His family is not a family that grows kudzu, these kudzu hemps were found by chance in the mountains, if he didn't feel that the textile mill was pressing down on the price, thinking that he would sell it to make a few more yuan, how could he be tortured by the cold wind here?
"Ninety Wen, you take them all, or I can pick you up if your house is close, how about it?" The stall owner said helplessly.
Lin Meiyi shook her head, with a calm smile on her face, "Fifty-five Wen at most, it's so cold, wouldn't you hurry up and sell it to me and buy some candy to go home and roast the fire?" ”
"And these two bundles of kudzu hemp can make a set of linen clothes at most, and the cost of a set of linen clothes in the store is only 200 wen, except for people like me who like to weave themselves, who else do you think will come to buy?"
"Instead of selling it at a low price, why don't you sell it to me now, and if you have the money, you can return home earlier, isn't it happy?"
Xiao watched the stall owner retreat step by step by Lin Meiyi's words, and suddenly felt a little sympathy for the stall owner.
A girl who has not been out of the cabinet, the first time she came to the county seat, she could have such a clever tongue, and the stall owner was powerless to refute it, and she was worthy of being Liu Zhaodi's daughter, and she was deeply inherited.
Xiao shook his head helplessly, seeing that the stall owner was about to cry to Lin Meiyi, he hurriedly pulled her arm, "It's just sixty wen, this big brother is not easy." ”
Lin Meiyi thought about it, nodded, and asked the stall owner with a smile: "Sixty Wen, if you don't sell it again, I'll go." ”
The stall owner couldn't cry or laugh, he really obeyed this girl, and hurriedly waved his hand to urge: "Hurry up, take it away, I really can't talk about you!" ”
"Thanks!" Lin Meiyi counted out sixty yuan and handed it to the stall owner, and troubled Xiao to help her carry the small burden, so she squatted down, took the two bundles of Ge Ma in one hand.
Raw kudzu Ma is a little heavy, and the stall owner is still thinking about whether to help send it, but seeing Lin Meiyi's appearance of lifting it with her hand without difficulty, she was so surprised for a while that she forgot to ask her if she wanted to help.
In the end, the stall owner could only watch in amazement as she walked farther and farther away with two bundles of Ge Ma, who were almost as tall as her.
Xiao Shi was also surprised, and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "Yiyi, have you inherited your father's strength?" ”
"I don't know." Lin Meiyi blinked and joked.
The original owner's strength is greater than that of the average person, and everyone in the family knows it, but outsiders don't know about it.
Now that she is practicing again, two bundles of less than 100 catties of kudzu hemp are completely trivial.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Shi could only glance at her helplessly, and kindly reminded, "Since you are not tired, then go quickly, as a teacher, I don't want people to be monkeys." ”
When Lin Meiyi heard this, she raised her eyes and looked around, good guy, the return rate is 100%, and all passers-by who pass by them must take a look at her.
But......
"Master, wait a minute, there is a pastry shop here, I'll buy some pastries."
Hurriedly put Ge Ma on the side of the road, Lin Meiyi flew over like the wind, bought thirty Wen pastries, and then came back satisfied, handed the pastries to the master to help hold them, and continued to carry the two bundles of Ge Ma out of the city.
This time the pace quickened, and the two were soon out of town.
Lin Meiyi took the initiative to pay for the car, two yuan per person, a total of four yuan, and as soon as the car money was paid, there was only eight yuan left in her hand.
Two of them are the New Year's money given by grandma Zhang during the Chinese New Year.
Xiao didn't say anything about her, and happily found a good place for the two of them to sit down, looking at Lin Meiyi with gentle eyes, and was full of emotion in her heart, quite touched by the fact that my family has a girl who has just grown up.
However, moving is moving, thinking of the pair of Yunmeng hairpins in the embroidery workshop, the soft expression on Xiao's face gradually returned to cold and hard.
"Yiyi, do you know how much that pair of hairpins can be sold?" She asked in a whisper.
The girl who was having fun counting the copper plates heard this, turned her head with a smile, and replied without hesitation, "I guess it won't be less than three taels, but at most it's five taels." ”
"You know?" Then why only take 300 wen?
Xiao Shi had doubts, but she didn't ask directly, she wanted to hear what this girl had to say first.
"Master, jewelry and the like, good looks can indeed increase the price, but the raw materials determine the ceiling of the price, that is, the highest price."
Lin Meiyi said: "After all, the materials used for the Yunmeng hairpin flower are still ordinary, and it can be sold for more than three taels at a high price just because it is a new thing, but in fact, its value is only five or six hundred Wen, and I can take three hundred Wen, which is very reasonable." ”
"Don't you feel sick in your heart?" Xiao couldn't help but ask curiously.
Lin Meiyi shook her head, "Why are you uncomfortable?" Isn't that what buying and selling is all about? I sold it, so it has nothing to do with me, in fact, I made an extra 200 yuan. ”
Looking at her happy appearance, Xiao didn't know how doting her eyes were, she liked this girl's humility and generosity.
That's it, it turns out that she is uneasy to calm down, and the girl has it in her heart, so she doesn't have to worry about it.
The ox cart stopped at the entrance of the village, and Lin Meiyi said goodbye to her master and got out of the car first.
Lin Erya and Goudan knew that the eldest sister had gone to the county seat early in the morning, and had been waiting at the entrance of the village after school in the afternoon.
One brought her a cloth bag, the other carried pastries for her, and seeing that she still had two bundles of kudzu, he hurriedly told her to wait in place and not move, and quickly ran home and pulled Lin Dalang over.
"Big sister, what are you doing buying so many kudzu?" Lin Dalang asked curiously, and at the same time helped his sister carry the two bundles of Ge Ma that looked not light, and the four brothers and sisters walked home quickly.
Lin Meiyi explained that she wanted to learn weaving from her master, so she bought kudzu, and the three brothers and sisters nodded clearly, and didn't ask where Lin Meiyi got the money.
It wasn't until they arrived at home that they heard their mother Liu ask where the money came from, that the three brothers and sisters reacted.
"It was the silver money I exchanged for the hairpin made of the leftovers given by the master, a total of 300 yuan, but now there are only 8 yuan left." Lin Meiyi finished speaking half-truthfully, waiting for Liu's roar anxiously.
Unexpectedly, no one in the whole family accused her of spending money indiscriminately, only proudly saying that her daughter was out of work, she could make money for herself to spend, and she also brought pastries to her family, which was too caring and sensible.
This wave of rainbow skins floated in, Lin Meiyi heard it with a weak heart, and hurriedly asked the eldest brother to help her take Ge Ma to her room, and divided the pastries to block their mouths.
When Liu Youcai came back from the field, he asked him to take out the bacon at home and make a bowl of meat dishes.
