287: Penniless
() Early the next morning, after breakfast, Liluo carried some silver and followed Yin Xiaoxi out of the door, and Zhang Liang also carried some silver he brought when he came out of the palace, and followed Lin Yi out of the door.
Several people went out of the house together, and when they were at the door, they parted ways and went in different directions.
Today is a day of separate action.
Lin Er took Zhang Liang to look after the shop, and chose the shop in the corner where there was a large flow of people and was relatively spacious.
As for the flow of people, before going out, Yin Xiaoxi also conducted a lot of science popularization to make the two understand.
Well, I guess I understand.
So the two of them began to wander around, and began to count the number of people passing by in front of each shop.
One, two, three, four......
Hey, this person just counted, but he passed by the door again, so does this person count as entering?
The two of them didn't understand it.
On the other end, Yin Xiaoxi took Xiaoquanzi and them to the port to pick the kind of fishermen who fished fish and shrimp.
Since you make seafood ravioli, seafood is definitely indispensable.
It happened that when a few people came to the port, there happened to be an old man who carried a boatload of fish and shrimp ashore.
"Uncle, do you sell this fish and shrimp?"
The old man took care of the fishing nets in his hand, where could he take care of the few people next to him who looked like everyone's young lady, they must have come to see the excitement, and they didn't have time to take care of it.
"Uncle, can you sell this fish and shrimp?"
Yin Xiaoxi stepped forward and asked politely again.
The old man put away the fishing net, and then turned around and looked at Yin Xiaoxi in front of him.
I wanted to count it, but she didn't have the eyesight to see it, and when they were busy and tired, they came forward to make trouble, but when she turned around and saw that it was a pregnant woman, she swallowed her saliva and softened her tone.
"Well, naturally it has to be sold, otherwise the family will eat and drink anything, but there is no shortage of these things in the south, and they can't afford to sell a few silver."
"Can you sell me all of this?"
"Ministry?" There are some differences between the old man, this woman is afraid that she is joking, who can eat so much at once, this will not last long, and if she dies, she will not be able to sell it for a long time.
Yin Xiaoxi smiled and nodded, "Well, Ministry." ”
The old man looked at the few people in front of him again, and saw that he was not dressed like an ordinary family, so he was not joking.
"Okay, then here you go, where is the house, wait for Mrs. to send it over."
Liluo stepped forward and reported the address and asked for the price.
The old man thought about it, everyone bought it all at once, and he didn't have to go to someone to buy it, and the day was all right now, he hesitated for a moment, and said, "Then give ten taels of silver." ”
Yin Xiaoxi couldn't believe his eyes, such a big basket of fish and shrimp was only ten taels of silver?
It seems that this seafood really can't be sold at a price in the southern country.
Liluo nodded, took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from his bosom and handed it to the old man.
The old man looked at it, "What is this?" ”
Yin Xiaoxi smiled gently, "Here is a hundred taels, I will also buy all the fish and shrimp next time, and the remaining silver here will be regarded as the fish and shrimp money in the future." ”
It is estimated that the old man can't find it, so he has a surprised expression.
The main thing is that when they left the palace, they brought some easy-to-carry silver tickets, and it was impossible to have broken silver, and the only broken silver was also taken by Xiaoquanzi yesterday to buy candied fruit.
At the moment, there is only this one silver ticket in his arms.
However, the old man in front of him looks honest and honest, and he should not be a liar, and he should not run away with a silver ticket and not send her fish and shrimp.
It's just that what Yin Xiaoxi didn't expect was that the silver ticket in her hand was just a piece of waste paper for the old man.
"Madam, I'm afraid you're making fun of me, where did you get the silver ticket, we've never seen it before."
The old man waved the silver ticket in his hand, a little displeased.
These people thought he wasn't busy enough enough to be tired early in the morning, and they came to make trouble.
Liluo lowered his head and whispered, "Oh no, madam, I'm afraid we won't be able to use our silver tickets here, so how can we live in the future." ”
Yin Xiaoxi pondered for a moment, lowered her eyes and happened to see the red gold bracelet on her wrist, which was given to her by the Ye family when she entered the palace, thinking that she could use it to go around the palace and buy people's hearts.
Who would have thought that after she entered the palace, she had a smooth journey, and she didn't even have a place to spend money, and the bracelet couldn't be given out.
Take off the bracelet and hand it to the old man.
"Uncle, how about you look at this bracelet, use it to offset your fish and shrimp money."
The old man took the bracelet and put it in his mouth and bit it, making sure that it was real gold, and he was overjoyed for a while.
"Madame, this bracelet of yours is worth a lot of silver."
"Then you can exchange it for ten times of fish and shrimp money, can you see it, I don't care about the weight, as long as there are so many times like today."
The old man agreed, and it was only a hundred taels of silver ten times, and this bracelet was taken to the pawnshop to pawn, how could it be worth hundreds of taels.
The old man turned around and put the fish in one of the boxes on the very edge, and picked out the big shrimp and put them in the other box, and now there are only some small shrimp left in the boat.
The old man counted that his mother-in-law had woven the fishing nets too densely, so that the small shrimp were also fished, and he made a gesture to pour the small shrimp back into the sea.
Yin Xiaoxi hurriedly grabbed the old man, "Uncle, what are you doing when you throw it out?" ”
"These are all small shrimps, it's useless to take them, no one buys them, you want these too?"
Yin Xiaoxi smiled and nodded, and Liluo hurriedly stepped forward, a little worried that his mother didn't know the market, so he asked for some useless shrimp.
"Mother...... Ahem, ma'am, do you want this little shrimp too? ”
"Yes, uncle, can you please send it to the house for me together? Next time, I will use this kind of fine net, and I will use this kind of shrimp to be useful. ”
The old man still didn't understand a little, but since everyone had paid the money, it was not good to say anything.
I had to send them all over.
After ordering the fish and shrimp, I went to find a pork shop and booked the pork for the next few days.
Silver, Yin Xiaoxi doesn't have much value on him anymore.
The red agate earrings hanging on her ears were left to her by Rong'er, and in the end, she had to give the butcher the Zhu Hai given by Lin Er on her head to mortgage the meat money.
Zhu Hai itself is made of silver, which is not worth a few dollars, but the green jade on Zhu Hai is worth a lot of silver.
When Yin Xiaoxi returned to the mansion satisfied, Lin Er happened to come back after ordering the shop.
"How?"
Lin Yi looked at the two bamboo baskets in the yard, a basket of fish, a basket of shrimp, and a basket of small dried shrimp with no meat at all, and a large basket of pork on the other side.
"Well, I've bought the shop, I'll take you to see it after lunch."
Pointing to these things in the yard, "These are all you want to use to make ravioli?" ”
Yin Xiaoxi sat on the stone bench and nodded proudly.
Lin Yi walked to the basket of dried shrimp, "This is also the case?" ”
Yin Xiaoxi nodded proudly again.
