Chapter 272: Selling Firewood at the Entrance of the Village (Three Watches)
Chapter 271: Selling Firewood at the Entrance of the Village (Three Watches)
Approaching dusk, four people, two carts, and full of firewood appeared in Yujia Village together.
It happened to be the time when the villagers came back from work.
Seeing so much firewood, the eyes of the people in the village were straight.
Someone else came up directly and asked: "Shun Yanzi, rich Yanzi, why did you get so much firewood?" It's going to take up a whole day, right? ”
Yu Shunxiao's eyes narrowed into a slit.
"No, these are all made by my niece and nephew and son-in-law! My fifth brother and I didn't get much. ”
They are all honest people, and what others ask and answer.
"So much firewood, have you finished burning it?" Someone in the village asked.
"That's it, so much, I'm afraid it's going to have to burn for months!"
In the future, the weather will get hotter and hotter, and in addition to cooking, the consumption of firewood will be much less than in winter.
However, these are also necessary things, and no one can do without them.
"Burning ......"
As soon as Yu Shun was about to answer, Xia Qiqi opened his mouth first.
"This uncle, these firewood must not be burned! Therefore, if anyone wants to bring the silver over, they can buy these firewood and go home, and we will send it to the house, a bundle of firewood, and only sell it for three dollars! Xia Qiqi said.
"Three...... Sanpenny? ”
The country man, it was the first time he heard that Chai He could also be sold for money, and he was stunned for a moment.
"Uncle, think about it, this is going to be spring inserted soon, your physical strength, you must keep the spring insertion, right? This firewood is not easy to pick up, and it will take at least a day to go to it.
You should also know that the firewood there is almost picked up, and you have to cut down trees.
Even if the tree is cut down, it still has to be transported out with manpower and material resources, and it can't be used immediately after transporting it, and it has to be dried for three or five days!
Now the firewood at the scene is here, a bundle of three pennies, no need to sweat, no need to walk, no need to climb the mountain, take back a bundle of firewood, don't worry about a few meals! Uncle, what are you waiting for?! ”
Xia Qiqi's kung fu is good, basically she wants to fool people, and there is no unsuccessful one.
The man listened to Xia Qiqi's words, didn't say a word, took out three pennies, and said to Xia Qiqi: "I bought a bundle of firewood." ”
The two brothers Yu Fu and Yu Shun on the side, their eyes were straight.
The one who paid just now was Zhang Quandan, the most picky man in the village, and he was a dime a dime on weekdays.
Xia Qiqi asked Yu Shun and Yu Fu to untie the old high firewood pile.
On the spot, he brought a bundle of firewood to Zhang Quandan.
At the foot of the mountain, when waiting for the two brothers Yu Shun and Yu Fu, Xia Qiqi used the dry grass in the mountain to make a straw rope and divided the firewood into bundles.
Not to mention the good placement, it is particularly easy to sell at a critical time.
The portion is no more, no less, enough for several meals.
Zhang Quandan mentioned Chai He, and said to Xia Qiqi: "It's not bad, it's a sincere girl, I just want to go home, so I won't let you send it home!" ”
After speaking, Zhang Quandan carried a bundle of firewood and walked in the direction of his house.
The others saw that Zhang Quandan had started, and thought about what Xia Qiqi said, so without saying a word, they set Xia Qiqi's chai he.
"What you just said, send it to the door, you send it to the door, I will give you money!"
"And my family'......"
"And my ......"
Not to be outdone, everyone spoke one after another.
Yu Shun and Yu Fu, you look at me, I look at you, and I still don't react, what happened in front of me.
Until Xia Qiqi urged the two, "Second uncle, fifth uncle, hurry up and tie up the firewood, who is this, you remember clearly, let's sell firewood!" ”
"Oh, good, good......" Yu Shun nodded heavily.
Together with Yu Fu, the firewood that had just been disbanded was tied up again.
Because I was too nervous, I didn't get the firewood right several times, and the more I messed up, the more messy it became.
Xia Qiqi simply said: "Second uncle, fifth uncle, you can directly carry Chai He and go to someone's house!" I'm guarding the pyre here! ”
"Cheng, I'll go now!"
Xia Qiqi stood at the entrance of the village, Yu Shun took Yu Fu, and Lu Jiu, the three of them together, and sent firewood to each family.
This time, Xia Qiqi didn't have much firewood.
In addition to the trunk of the big tree, there are also two brothers, Yu Shun and Yu Fu, who picked it up.
The firewood he she and Lu Jiu picked up added up, a total of sixteen bundles, all of which were sold, earning forty-eight wen.
This money is earned for nothing, because I also have my own firewood.
The rest are the most burned parts of the trunk.
After selling firewood, the cart has been much empty.
The four of them were all tired and sweating profusely.
But he was not tired at all, especially the two brothers Yu Fu and Yu Shun.
"I never knew that Chai He could also be sold for money! Qiqi, you are amazing! Yu Shun said.
He said as he wiped his sweat.
"Yes, this trip, in addition to our own home, I actually earned forty-eight wen, I ...... I can't believe it!
The men in the village who move goods on the wharf earn more than a dozen dollars a day, and they are tired to death! Qiqi, what the second brother said is right, you are too powerful, even better than those men! Yu Fu also said.
"It's nothing, don't say a bundle of firewood, even if it's a dog, as long as it's needed, it can still be exchanged for money!
If the garbage is placed in the right place, it is a treasure. Similarly, this Yujia Village, if it is not backed by the mountain, there is a shortage of firewood. But firewood, rice, oil, and salt are all necessities, and no one will ignore the ease in front of them. Xia Qiqi said.
"Well said!" Yu Shunchong gave Xia Qiqi a thumbs up.
Xia Qiqi lowered his head, a little embarrassed.
Her set of theories is all summed up by modern people.
She's just a "thief" and just copying and copying!
"It's not too early, let's go back!" Xia Qiqi Dao.
After speaking, she quietly glanced at Lu Jiu beside her, her face was as usual, as calm as ever.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Fang just pretended to be compared, she was really afraid that Lu Jiu would demolish it for her.
Although he never did this kind of thing, he didn't know why, when Lu Jiu absorbed more and more knowledge, she always felt a little guilty about doing bad things in front of Lu Jiu.
Fortunately, he is still the Ah Jiu of the past.
"Let's go, my mother must be happy to know that we have made money!" Yu Shundao.
The four of them pulled the cart together and went to Lao Yu's house.
Not long after they left, a man came out from under the big tree at the entrance of the village.
He stared at Xia Qiqi and the direction they left with a gloomy expression, and there was a vicious light in his eyes.
This person is not a bystander, it is Qi Ba who was beaten into a pig's head by Xia Qiqi at noon.
The whole family was beaten and became a joke in the village.
The most important thing is that they also made their old Yu family lose a tael of silver.
"Good Yu Shun and Yu Fu, and that dead girl, Lao Tzu doesn't take revenge today, Lao Tzu Qiba gives you the surname, you wait, sooner or later, Lao Tzu suffered today, ten times and a hundred times more so that you can come back!!"
Qi Ba squeezed this sentence out of his teeth and turned around and went back to Lao Qi's house.
