As soon as Zheng Lu's words came out, everyone's faces became solemn.

Sugar cane was harvested, but it was sold.

Just now, when Zheng Changyin saw the endless sugarcane forest in front of him, he had an uneasy premonition. As expected, the more abundant the sugarcane, the lower the price.

According to Zheng Lu, the purchase price of sugarcane drops by one price a day. A few days ago, it was 6 cents a pound, but yesterday it had dropped to 5 cents, and I don't know what the price is today.

In Yangwen Village and nearby villages, the villagers all grow sugarcane. Today is a good year, a good harvest, and every household has a large amount of sugar cane.

According to the current purchase price, the villagers are all at a loss. However, there is no way, if people are not allowed to buy it, will the sugarcane rot in the ground? If you let the sugar cane rot in the ground, you won't get a penny.

According to the price of previous years, the purchase price of sugarcane is about a dime a catty. This year's harvest has been bumper, and the buyers are black-hearted and deliberately keep the price low. No way, if you don't want to sell to others, they will go to the next village to buy it, and there will always be people who are willing to sell.

Zheng Lu said as she stretched out her hand to cover her heart, her heart ached.

After a long time, Zheng Lu took a deep breath, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Forget it, don't talk about it, let's hurry up and chop sugarcane." The acquirer is coming, and it will be too late if you don't cut it. ”

After speaking, as soon as the big knife in Zheng Lu's hand was raised, he cut it into the sugarcane field. With a single sword, several sugar canes fell.

Seeing this, Gu Yufan didn't say a word, but also picked up the big knife in his hand, and slashed into the sugarcane field like Zheng Lu. Gu Yufan's strength was enough, but the angle and skill of the chopping were not enough, and this knife only cut one sugar cane.

Su Ren and Liang Jie also started to help chop up the sugarcane. Only Zheng Changyin, holding a big knife in his hand, didn't move. She just looked at the sea of sugar cane in front of her, pondering, no one knew what she was thinking.

After a while, the sound of a tractor was faintly heard.

As soon as they heard this voice, Zheng Lu, Su Ren and Liang Jie immediately stopped what they were doing. Zheng Lu also shouted: "Here, they are here." ”

Zheng Lu said that they are buyers, driving tractors to buy sugarcane.

The sound of the tractor was getting closer and closer, and the surrounding villagers walked to both sides of the country road and waited.

Zheng Changyin also walked into the crowd and waited with everyone.

The tractor stopped in front of Zheng Lu and Su Ren, and two men came down from the control room. As soon as he got out of the car, he glanced at the downed sugar cane on the ground, and the corners of his mouth went up and he smiled.

Zheng Changyin glanced at the two of them, one fat and one thin, and they looked ordinary. It's the kind that is placed in the crowd and is not conspicuous at all.

"My family's sugar cane has been cut and can be weighed." An uncle next to him immediately shouted at the two of them.

"Our family has also been cut down." Another aunt shouted.

The villagers began to shout that their sugar cane had been cut and could be sold. The villagers seemed a little nervous and anxious, as if they were afraid that the buyers would not want their sugar cane.

The two acquirers seem to have seen this kind of scene in a hurry, making everyone shout and not rush to respond.

Zheng Changyin frowned, how could the villagers sell it at a good price if they were so eager to sell?

After a long time, the fat buyer finally spoke: "We forgot to bring the scale today." ”

As soon as these words came out, the villagers were stunned. How do you weigh sugar cane without a scale?

It was Su Ren who relieved himself first and proposed: "The village chief has a scale at home, I'll borrow it." ”

"Yes, yes, borrow it from the village chief." Someone immediately chimed in.

Su Ren immediately stepped forward to leave, but was stopped by the thin buyer: "Don't bother, let's just count the money by the root." ”

Su Ren stopped, turned his face and stared at the two buyers in a daze. All eyes were on them. Money by the root? What is the algorithm?

"Ten sugar canes, a dime, you line up, one by one counts."

As soon as the buyer's words came out, the villagers exploded.

What the? Ten sugar canes for a dime? A sugarcane is about five catties, and ten is fifty catties. Fifty pounds of sugar cane is only a dime, so ...... What's the difference between giving it to an acquirer for nothing?

"How can this be?"

"Aren't you just robbing like this?"

"We have to weigh by the pound, not by the root."

……

Folks, you say a word, I don't agree with the algorithm of counting money by the root.

Zheng Changyin and Gu Yufan did not participate in the discussion among the villagers. I saw that Zheng Changyin frowned, staring at the two buyers with a little annoyance, and gritted his teeth with hatred.

"Long groan, they did it on purpose." Gu Yufan turned his face and said to Zheng Changyin. Forgetting to bring a scale is just an excuse and is deliberately driving down the price.

Zheng Changyin turned his face and glanced back at Gu Yufan, but did not say anything. Zheng Changyin also saw the disgusting of the buyer, but he had nothing to say.

"Let the villagers stop selling, they are profiteers." Gu Yufan added again.

Zheng Changyin opened his mouth, but still didn't speak. She had already wanted to ask the villagers not to sell it 10,000 times. However, I can't open my mouth.

In Gu Yufan's opinion, it is better to let the sugarcane rot in the ground than to sell ten sugarcanes for a dime. However, Zheng Changyin is different from Gu Yufan, she has suffered hardships and knows that it is not easy for the villagers to plant. If you let the sugar cane rot in the ground, you really won't have a dime.

"Or, let's drop it to four cents a pound, and it can't be less."

"yes, just four cents."

Among the crowd, some towns and towns took the lead in lowering the price and discussing with the buyer. Yesterday it was five cents, but today they took the initiative to drop it to four cents, which is very sincere.

Honest folks, thinking that they can satisfy the greed of the acquirer by taking a step back. Unexpectedly, the greed of the acquirer is endless.

"No, ten cents a dime, and I won't give a cent." The fat buyer was very resolute in his refusal.

The villagers all looked sad. Zheng Changyin glanced at Zheng Lu and Liang Jie, and saw that they were so anxious that they were about to cry.

"Let me take it." Gu Yufan couldn't hold it back, said a word to Zheng Changyin, and was about to step forward. However, he was held by Zheng Changyin with one hand.

"How much can you take? Can you collect it every day? Zheng Changyin retorted to Gu Yufan, and pulled Gu Yufan back.

"Three cents, down to three cents a pound." In the crowd, there are villagers who have lowered the price.

When he heard the three cents, some villagers reached out and beat their chests, with a sad face.

"Now that there's sugar cane everywhere, you still want to sell it for three cents? No way! If you don't want to sell, we'll go. After saying that, the two buyers got into the car, with an attitude of going to leave.

"Don't go, don't go, we'll sell."
