Chapter 73: Money-Making Strategies (2)

Through Li Minyu's words, Mu Li also learned about the market branch of this town.

There are stalls on both sides of this street is East Street, and the things bought on East Street are very cheap, all of them are small things, because the stalls on both sides of the East Street street do not need to pay booth fees, just spread a cloth on the ground and put something to sell.

The stalls are set up by themselves, first come, first served, and they don't have to pay rent, but because of this, there are many times stall disputes and brawls, and no one cares about East Street, it is very messy, and it is very dirty, and the ground is full of mud and vegetable leaves, so it is not dirty.

West Street is different.

It is said that it is West Street, but it is not actually a street, but a market is set up next to the street, which is called Tile Market.

The tile market is managed, each stall according to different locations to collect rent, expensive a day to more than a dozen yuan, the worst lot also to three yuan.

However, there are also advantages to paying rent, West Street is in good order, and there are special people to manage it every day.

Moreover, people from dozens of villages above the town come here to buy and sell, and there is a lot of people and sells quickly, so meat, which is slightly more expensive, is sold on West Street.

Every fifteenth day of the new year is a big day to catch the market, the villages within a radius of dozens of miles will come to catch the market, it will be more lively at that time, although it is not the fifteenth day of the new year today, but there are also people selling things on West Street.

When she arrived in Washi, Mu Li did not rush to buy first, but shopped around and asked about the price of meat at each stall before choosing to buy at one of them.

The lard is seven cents per catty, and the oil refined from one catty of pork is only about half a catty, and one catty of lard costs fourteen wen, which is already very expensive, and white rice can be bought for three catties.

"Boss, your pig board costs seven wen a catty, and it's too expensive, can you sell it to me cheaper? If it's cheaper, I'll come to you more often to buy it in the future. Mu Li pointed to the greasy fat on the stall.

The owner of the pork seller was a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, who was fat and greasy, but not the obnoxious kind.

"Little girl, I didn't buy expensive, this pig board is at this price everywhere, you just asked a few and know that this price didn't lie to you."

The boss said with a smile, Mu Li didn't escape his eyes when he asked from other pork stalls just now.

"Boss, I naturally know, I will patronize yours after seeing so many houses, you can cheapen me, I will buy more." Mu Li said.

"And how much do you buy?"

"Three pounds."

"Three catties is a lot, buy five catties, I will count you less than one catty, and five catties of pig boards will count you as thirty wen." Pork boss said.

"Okay." Mu Li nodded, this oil is definitely indispensable for stir-frying, this time there is also Li Minyu's donkey cart, just put as many things as you sell on the donkey cart, otherwise after you run out, the next time you come by yourself, you have to carry it back.

The pork boss cut the fat, cut the pork chops and put the heads on the stall, and there were a few cleanly shaved pork bones on the side of the stall.

"Boss, how do you sell these pig bones?" Mu Li asked him.

This pork bone is a good thing, the pith in it is a good thing to supplement calcium, and it is very good to take it back whether it is boiling soup or boiling pork bone porridge.

"Oh, this pig bone, if you want it, I'll give you a pound of money."

The pork boss, who was weighing the fat, glanced at the pork bones and said to her.

This pork bone without a little bit of meat is not wanted, usually someone buys a few catties of meat and gives him a piece or two, and the people who want to buy it are those poor people who can't afford to buy meat, buy it back and boil a soup, smell some pork, and have a good time.
