"Kiwi? What a strange fruit name, it doesn't look like a macaque, does it? Hearing Shen Xiaomeng's shout, some people who were curious about their names asked.

Shen Xiaomeng: "Poof! He smiled and said, "This aunt, the shape of the kiwi is like a pear, its color is like a peach, and the macaque likes to eat it, so it has its name, it does not look like a macaque." ”

As soon as they heard Shen Xiaomeng's explanation, several women on the spot were surprised

"Huh? Isn't that eating macaque food? Isn't that a metaphor for us like macaques? ”

"That's it, let's not eat macaque food."

Shen Xiaomeng "poof" again! With a smile, he picked up the plate in Tsai Tsai's hand, and smiled at the few onlookers, "Auntie, Mrs., Miss, do you know bananas?" ”

Hearing Shen Xiaomeng ask about bananas, several women were not angry

"Of course I know, it's a hot fruit, and it's expensive for us!"

"Look at you dressed in such tatters, I'm sure you've never seen a banana!"

Regarding everyone's disdain, Shen Xiaomeng smiled unconcernedly, "Then do you know what kind of food monkeys like the most?" ”

A young lady's maid said with disdain

"Bananas, of course!"

Shen Xiaomeng shrugged and said, "That's it!" It's not surprising that this monkey likes to eat bananas, and it is not surprising that macaques like to eat kiwifruit, right? Come on, let's try this kiwi for free! ”

"That's what this lady said, I'll try it!" The one who spoke was a nurse in Qi Mansion, Mama Lan, and the young lady she was serving was a concubine, so it was difficult to eat the fruits in winter, and there was a free tasting, and she would definitely not let it go.

"Good Ratcha!" Shen Xiaomeng brought the plate to Mama Lan and said with a smile, "Auntie, please try it!" ”

Mama Lan picked up a small piece of kiwifruit and bit it gently, the sweet and sour taste made Mama Lan like it instantly, and after eating a small piece, she asked Shen Xiaomeng

"Little lady, how do you sell this kiwifruit?"

Shen Xiaomeng stretched out two fingers and said, "Two taels of silver, one catty!" ”

"Shhhh......h Hearing the price, Mama Lan took a deep breath and said, "Little lady, this apple is not so expensive, you are too expensive, cheaper, I will buy a pound and go home to my young lady to try it!" ”

"Auntie, don't you know, this kiwi fruit can not only moisturize and dry, but also have the effects of beauty and calming the nerves!" Because diuretic laxatives are not suitable for public opinion, Shen Xiaomeng didn't say it, after all, it is ancient times.

"Really?" Girls like beauty, so as soon as Shen Xiaomeng explained that she could be beautiful, a young lady stood up and asked.

"Of course!" Shen Xiaomeng replied with a smile: "Otherwise, the slave family wouldn't dare to sell it so expensive, wouldn't they?" Miss, try it! ”

Although I don't believe Shen Xiaomeng's words, it's okay to taste the taste, after all, if the taste is good, it is also a good choice to change the fruit, so the young lady who asked picked up a small piece of kiwifruit, gently put it in her mouth, and after chewing it slowly, she looked at Shen Xiaomeng and said

"Give Miss Ben two pounds!"

"Good Ratcha!" Shen Xiaomeng let the boy hold the plate, she turned around and went into the store, asked the guy to take a scale and a paper bag, took out a bag of kiwifruit, and weighed it in front of the young lady.

Although no one uses a pole scale in modern times, Shen Xiaomeng, who has recognized pole scales since elementary school, still knows it, but the ancient scale is different from the modern number of catties.

In ancient times, it was sixteen taels for a catty, so Shen Xiaomeng loaded more than a dozen kiwi weighs, looking at the red weighing, Shen Xiaomeng said with a smile

"Miss, it's just two catties, a total of four taels of silver!"

Miss: "Hmm! With a sigh, he motioned to the maid to pay the money and take the kiwifruit.

Shen Xiaomeng took the silver and said, "Miss, in addition to kiwifruit, there are still good preserved fruits in the fragrance, you can take a look!" ”

"The lady is really good at talking!" The young lady answered with a smile and led the maid into the shop.

People are like this, when they see others buying, they will follow suit, so Mama Lan, who was too expensive just now, said with a smile

"Little lady, I'll give my mother-in-law a pound!" After Mama Lan finished speaking, she took a small piece of kiwifruit and ate it.

Shen Xiaomeng didn't say anything, but took eight kiwi fruits and weighed them

"One pound is just right!"

"Hey!" After Mama Lan gave the silver to Shen Xiaomeng, she happily entered the shop with the kiwifruit to choose the preserved fruit.

There were two people in the lead, so a dozen catties of kiwifruit were sold out quickly.

I walked behind and didn't buy it, so I asked, "Little lady, will this kiwi be there tomorrow?" ”

"Absolutely!" Shen Xiaomeng replied with a smile: "You can also take a look at the preserved fruits in the store first." ”

"Good!" Because of Shen Xiaomeng's good service attitude, the people who didn't buy kiwifruit were not unhappy, but entered the shop after finishing it.

Looking at Shen Xiaomeng, who had sold out the bag of kiwifruit in less than half an hour, the jade shopkeeper smiled from ear to ear and invited the three of her to the backyard

"The contemptible surname is jade, everyone calls the old man a jade shopkeeper, I don't know what to call the little lady?"

Shen Xiaomeng introduced, "The jade shopkeeper can call the slave family Shen Niangzi, this is the son of the slave family, Shen Binzai, this is the nephew of the slave family, Shui Yue!" ”

The jade shopkeeper "Shen Niangzi, this kiwi fruit is a pound of silver or two, I want it, but how many catties can Shen Niangzi send over a day?" ”

"I'll send fifty pounds tomorrow! As for the day after tomorrow, it depends! "The yield of kiwifruit is not high, according to the current two catties, a kiwi is about 20 catties, five kiwis, less than 100 catties.

So Shen Xiaomeng didn't dare to say more, she could only say this, and then go back and go to the mountains to find other kiwi trees.

"Wouldn't fifty pounds be a little less?" The jade shopkeeper frowned, a little dissatisfied with this amount, after all, the kiwifruit was sold well just now.

Shen Xiaomeng smiled and said, "Jade shopkeeper, you don't know, this kiwi fruit is at most twenty catties of fruit per tree, so I can't help it!" ”

"So little?" The jade shopkeeper was a little puzzled.

Looking at the jade shopkeeper who didn't believe in him, Shen Xiaomeng smiled lightly and said, "Jade shopkeeper, this kiwi fruit for two pounds of silver, do you think I don't want to earn it?" ”

Knowing that Shen Xiaomeng was a little unhappy, the jade shopkeeper didn't have much to say, so he said

"Then when will Mrs. Shen send it over tomorrow?"

"Morning!" After Shen Xiaomeng finished speaking, he took out half of the silver from selling kiwifruit

"Jade shopkeeper, this is half of the silver money that just sold kiwifruit, fourteen catties of kiwifruit, two taels of silver a catty, half is fourteen taels, you take it!"

Jade shopkeeper "Shen Niangzi is a sincere person, then I will wait for Shen Niangzi's kiwi tomorrow!" ”

"Where, if the slave family still has something to do, let's leave first!" As soon as the matter of kiwifruit was discussed, Shen Xiaomeng was about to leave, after all, after going back, he would not only pick kiwifruit, but also find kiwifruit.
