Chapter 138: Selling Roe Deer

After listening to Feng Hu's words, Xia Duofu didn't want to say anything more.

At this time, Xia Qiqi poked his head out of the stove room.

She said, "Uncles and aunts have eaten!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Xia Duofu, and she said again, "Dad, are you back?" Come in and eat! ”

"Eh, come on!" Chateau said.

"Blessed are you! The craftsmanship of the Qiqi girl is good, you didn't come back at noon, the pot of chicken soup she stewed is so delicious that she even wants to swallow it with her tongue! Zhao Lei said.

The others looked expectant.

Seeing that Xia Qiqi went to call Yu Guixiang and his two sisters to eat, Feng Hu and his group simply went to the stove room and waited.

The atmosphere of dinner, like lunch, is still harmonious.

After dinner, Xia Qiqi washed dishes in the stove room and cleaned up the stove room.

Lu Jiu moved the bench and sat on the stove, staring at the fragrant sweet potatoes roasted in the stove.

This day, for Xia Qiqi, is not thrilling, but it is not ordinary.

She estimated that in the future, her life with Lu Jiu would be more interesting.

"Ah Jiu, Ming'er, let's go to the town to do business, if the roe deer in your house is sold for a good price, let's go buy a few bows and arrows and come back, and go hunting in the mountains in the future, so you don't have to use your bare hands!" Xia Qiqi Dao.

Hearing this, Lu Jiu looked away from the sweet potatoes in the stove, and then stared at Xia Qiqi with a blank face.

Xia Qiqi wasn't ready to explain too much, anyway, he would see him tomorrow!

……

……

The next day, Xia Qiqi and Lu Jiu got up early in the morning.

Xia Qiqi made breakfast, and after breakfast, Lu Jiu carried the roe deer on his back.

Xia Qiqi carried barrels, knives and other tools that might be used and went to the town market.

Approaching the Chinese New Year, the town market is very lively, full of buying and selling business, as well as New Year's goods.

Xia Qiqi found the manager of the market stall, paid a two-penny booth fee, chose a good location, and began to sell roe deer on the street.

There are many more people today than Xia Qiqi who was doing business on the dock before, and the shouting continued.

Lu Jiu stood beside him, his eyes staring at the people around him, not like someone who came to do business, but like he came to be a bodyguard.

Xia Qiqi couldn't hold back and laughed.

"Ah Jiu, you don't have to fight with others, take it easy! Otherwise, you stand next to collect the money, and I will sell the roe deer? Xia Qiqi said.

Lu Jiu glanced at Xia Qiqi and consciously stepped aside.

Pick up the barrel next to it.

He has always been used to putting money in the barrel, but this barrel is used by Xia Qiqi to put the blood of the roe deer.

"The bucket can't be given to you! I'm going to kill the roe deer, and then bleed! ”

Such a big roe deer, it is the Chinese New Year, and when it is slaughtered, it should be able to be sold soon.

As soon as Xia Qiqi's words fell, Lu Jiu neatly took the knife that Xia Qiqi put on the board.

"You're going to kill a roe deer?" Xia Qiqi asked suspiciously.

Lu Jiu nodded.

Xia Qiqi remembered that when they met for the first time, he also used a knife to cut the meat of the wild boar.

However, at that time, he was terrible at pickiness, a wild boar, he ate the piece of meat in the middle of the pig's belly, and the rest was thrown aside as garbage.

"Wait a minute, you can't throw half a piece of this roe deer meat, this roe deer can be sold for money from head to toe!" Xia Qiqi Dao.

When Lu Jiu heard this, his hand holding the knife froze.

It took a long time before nodding.

Xia Qiqi saw his reaction and let out a long breath in his heart.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly, otherwise such a big roe deer, I am afraid that only the piece of meat on the stomach will be left.

Isn't she a big loss?

Lu Jiu took the knife, walked up to the roe deer, raised the knife in his hand, and barely struggled, and the roe deer died.

Xia Qiqi put the wooden bucket under the roe deer's neck and took the roe deer blood.

This roe deer blood can be used as a blood sausage when taken back, and there is one more dish on the dinner table at home.

The roe deer bled out, and Xia Qiqi didn't let Lu Jiu do the rest.

She took the knife herself, skinned the roe deer, disemboweled the roe deer, dug out all the internal organs, and laid them on the board next to her.

Lu Jiu had never handled animals like this.

Therefore, the eyes are watching from the side without blinking.

All that's left is to cut the roe deer in half and wait for passers-by to come and buy it.

As Xia Qiqi expected, because of the Chinese New Year, those who came out to visit the market were all kicking a lot of money, and roe deer were not common.

After a while, in front of the stall, I came to ask the price of roe deer.

"Little girl, how do you sell this roe deer?"

"Uncle, depending on which part you want, the price is naturally different for different parts. This place with fat in the belly has the highest price, thirty yuan.

The one with the bones is cheaper, and the ribs part is the most expensive with the bones, twenty-three Wen. and this roe deer leg, which also costs twenty cents. The rest of the meat is twenty-five cents.

Uncle, this roe deer is hunted in the mountains at the risk of our lives, and the price is naturally higher than ordinary pork! But I can guarantee that what I sell here is definitely cheaper than the roe deer meat sold by other hunters, so you can buy it with confidence! ”

Xia Qiqi and the man who asked the price explained carefully.

There was no impatience or displeasure on the man's face.

He pointed to the roe deer except for the belly and said, "Give me three pounds!" ”

"Thank you, uncle!" Xia Qiqi narrowed his eyes at the man and smiled.

Then neatly picked up the knife next to him, went down with a knife, cut a large piece of meat, and then weighed it.

"Uncle, three catties more than one tael, even if the one or two is given to you by me, take care of business next time!"

Hearing that Xia Qiqi didn't charge money for an extra tael, a smile suddenly appeared on the man's face.

"Little girl, you dig two more pounds of pork ribs!"

"Howler!"

Xia Qiqi crossed the scales again and cut a piece of roe deer intestines for the man.

The man took the meat and ribs tied to the straw rope and paid happily.

This scene fell into the eyes of the people who were also watching whether to buy roe deer meat, and everyone felt that Xia Qiqi was a very honest and not stingy person, so they stepped forward.

"Roe deer meat, a pound. What, can you give me a little bit of the intestine you just sent? ”

It was a woman who was asking, and she just watched Xia Qiqi send a piece of intestines to the man in front of her, so she came over to ask.

If Xia Qiqi is sent, she will buy it!

If you don't give it to her, you won't buy it!

"Good!"

Xia Qiqi nodded.

Neatly cut the roe deer meat, and cut a small piece of roe deer intestines.

Whenever she buys something from her, she will give it something small.

Sometimes a little more meat, sometimes a little offal.

In a short time, most of the roe deer meat was sold.

Lu Jiu also collected a lot of money.

The more Xia Qiqi looked, the more beautiful he felt.

Suddenly, not far away, there were screams from the crowd.

"Get out of the way...... Get out of the way ......"
