Chapter 8: Rush to the market

Lin Vanilla placed the yellow eel not far from the meat stall, put down the back basket, and lifted the wooden barrel out.

At this time, most of the people in the market were doing business, and there were not many people who actually rushed to the market.

After walking so far with such a heavy thing on his back just now, Lin Vanilla was already a little hungry, and looked down at Lin Xiaoshan looking around the street excitedly, and couldn't help but smile: "Xiaoshan, when we sell all these yellow eels, Sister will take you to eat meat buns." ”

Originally, the white-flour steamed buns were something he didn't dare to think about, but now when he heard that Lin Vanilla was going to take him to eat meat buns, the little guy was overjoyed.

Lin Vanilla saw that there were not many people in the market, so Lin Xiaoshan guarded the yellow eel, and she went to see if there were any yellow eels for sale, after all, she had to understand the price of this era.

It's just a turn, it's nothing more than selling melons, fruits and vegetables, and there are very few stalls selling meat, Lin Vanilla pondered, shouldn't it be because the people in this town are too poor?

If you are really too poor and your price is too high, will you scare people away?

"Then Orion obviously agreed to send the prey, why didn't he send it? Seeing that it is the day of the full moon of the little young master, when the time comes, where will it be in time. Beside him, a woman's complaining voice suddenly came.

Lin Vanilla looked up and saw a woman in an indigo jacket, looking at her age, she should be in her early forties, and the anger on her face couldn't hide her shrewdness.

Behind her was a little girl dressed as a girl, carrying vegetables in her hand, thinking that a big family had come out to buy vegetables.

Seeing that they were about to leave, Lin Vanilla hurriedly said: "This sister, I have ready-made game, you come and take a look, it doesn't cost you money." ”

"You call me sister?" The woman glanced at Lin Vanilla suspiciously, and when she saw Lin Vanilla nodding like pounding garlic, her complexion suddenly improved, and her eyes subconsciously looked into her barrel without speaking.

After a long time, the girl on the side said: "Aunt Song, the eldest young master likes to eat this the most." ”

Aunt Song turned her head and glanced at the girl, obviously with some displeasure: "How to sell?" ”

Lin Vanilla didn't understand the market of this world, so he asked by the way: "You look at it." ”

When Aunt Song heard this, her face became a little better, and her eyes subconsciously turned on Lin Vanilla and Lin Xiaoshan's faces, so she stretched out her hand and made a gesture of five: "Five pennies." ”

Lin Vanilla has a feeling of being taken on the head, if she remembers correctly, she heard her uncle Lin Daqing mention it before, and the meat is sold for eleven or twelve yuan!

This yellow eel is a seasonal thing, and it should have been more expensive than meat, but this Aunt Song made it clear that she was young and wanted to take advantage of her.

Lin Vanilla laughed with her, and she was not annoyed: "I can't help it, my mother told me that this yellow eel must be sold for thirteen yuan, otherwise, I really don't dare to sell it." ”

Aunt Song thought that Lin Vanilla was a fool, but she didn't expect that it would be so difficult to deceive, and for a while, she was a little surprised.

"Less, I'll give it all to you."

Originally, Lin Vanilla had made up his mind, and he had a lot of points, but now that he heard that the other party wanted it all, he suddenly became very spineless.

"Eleven pennies, it can't be less." As soon as the voice fell, I heard Aunt Song say meaningfully: "Little girl, if you let all this money be earned by one person, it will not be easy for me to come out, you can't give me someone else's price." Besides, we are a big gateway and never buy things from people we don't know well. ”

This is a disguised price to her, asking for a running fee?

Seeing that Aunt Song seemed to want to leave, she got closer and said in Aunt Song's ear: "I'll just look at your face, charge you nine dollars and a pound, and you have to help me hide it outside." ”

Lin Xiangxiang thought that if she stood in the bazaar, even if she stood until the afternoon, she might not be able to sell out, but it was better to sell less money and save trouble.

No surprise, Aunt Song nodded.

Lin Xiangxiang borrowed a scale from someone, carefully weighed it, and it was thirty-two catties, returned the scale, and took the silver money in Aunt Song's hand, she counted it carefully, just two hundred and eighty-eight dollars, and was about to say thank you, but she heard Aunt Song say: "Send me to Zhao's mansion!" ”

"Which Zhao Mansion?" Almost subconsciously, Lin Vanilla shuddered.

Aunt Song looked at her like a fool: "Which other Zhao Mansion is there?" This Zhao County, who doesn't know our Zhao Mansion? ”

The corners of Lin Xiangxiang's mouth trembled, and she immediately thought of Zhao Sangongzi, who was going to marry her, and hurriedly said: "Twenty yuan will be charged for delivery!" ”

"You girl!" Aunt Song was annoyed and angry, this girl looks honest, but she is still a profiteer!

If it weren't for the low price she gave herself, so that she could get enough oil and water, she wouldn't want this thing!

Lin Xiangxiang saw that she was about to have a seizure, so she squinted her eyes and smiled: "If you send it to the back door alley, you won't be charged." ”

Aunt Song wanted to say something, and after thinking about the price difference of more than three cents, she finally nodded: "Just send it to the back door alley!" ”

……

The Zhao Mansion was even bigger than she expected, and it took a lot of time just to go around the wall to get to the back door.

When she arrived at the back door, she put down the basket and took out the yellow eel, originally thinking about whether to leave the broken porcelain jar, but Aunt Song suddenly called her: "Girl, if there is something better than this in the future, send it to me, our Zhao Mansion likes game, the price." ”

"Naturally, it's different from others." Lin Xiangxiang smiled at Aunt Song, they are all smart people, if she wants others to give her a chance, she also has to give others a profit, right?

Thinking that it wouldn't take long for her, after all, she had to buy her own belongings, she didn't say much, she only thanked Aunt Song, and pulled Lin Xiaoshan out of the alley.

As soon as you turn the alley, the market is lively. She first bought two pieces of peanut candy for Lin Xiaoshan, and then took Lin Xiaoshan to the bun shop.

When has Lin Xiaoshan ever eaten peanut candy, a pair of watery eyes have never left the yellow paper wrapped in peanut candy, but until he walked to the bun shop, he was reluctant to move it.

"Boss, here are four pork buns and two bowls of porridge." Lin Vanilla put the basket on the ground, pulled Lin Xiaoshan to sit down, and shouted to the people who were busy at the stall.

"Come on." The owner of the steamed bun stall answered, and immediately picked up the steamed bun and walked towards them, when he saw that it was two children dressed shabbyly, his eyes were stunned, and he couldn't help but ask her: "Are they four meat buns and two bowls of porridge?" ”

Lin Vanilla couldn't understand what this person meant, just because she was afraid that they wouldn't be able to pay for the buns and eat white food.

Quietly took out ten copper plates from his pocket, and the steamed bun stall owner hurriedly put the four meat buns on the table, nodded and said, "I'm sorry, girl, I just had bad ears, so I'll give the two of you porridge." ”

"Hurry." Lin Vanilla didn't bother to tell him more, and when she turned around, she saw Lin Xiaoshan still staring at the bag of peanut candy, and suddenly felt funny: "You can eat it if you want, Sister still has money here, and Sister will take you to buy it after eating." ”

When Lin Xiaoshan heard this, he hurriedly put away the peanut candy, shook his head and said, "No, I'll take it home and eat it again." ”

Lin Xiangxiang smiled and handed him a pair of chopsticks, at this time, the four meat buns on the table were steaming, and the smell of meat in the buns entered the noses of the two of them for a while, hooking people's taste buds.

Lin Xiaoshan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he had never eaten such fragrant meat buns, or rather, he had never smelled the fragrance of buns.

At this time, the stall owner happened to bring up two bowls of porridge.

This porridge is boiled with serious white rice, but it is much better than the brown rice porridge that the Lin family can only eat during the New Year's Festival, Lin Herb sandwiched a meat bun for Lin Xiaoshan, while urging him to eat it while it was hot.

Lin Xiaoshan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and finally put the meat bun in his mouth, but he was reluctant to eat it quickly, just biting it one by one, the oil and water flowing out of the meat bun were accompanied by the fragrance of green onions, Lin Xiaoshan was reluctant to waste it, and quickly put it to his mouth and sucked it, so as not to leak it.

The two sisters and brothers ate two meat buns, and they were very satisfied, after all, this was the best thing they had eaten in such a long time.

Lin Vanilla settled the account, a total of five copper plates, one copper plate for one bun, one copper plate for two bowls of porridge, and the price was right.
