Chapter 221: Cui'er

Cui'er was very happy at first, but gradually she couldn't laugh, because there were so many people selling herbs that not only were they too busy, but even the dozens of taels of silver they brought couldn't last for a few days.

Looking at Lin Zifu, she didn't seem to be worried at all, she looked calm, and she was not even in the store in the afternoon, but went home.

This made her even more worried, and she always felt that these people suddenly came to sell medicinal herbs, and they were shouting to give cash quickly, which made her feel suspicious no matter how she looked at it.

But she didn't think much about it, she was happy to see that there was no one on Lin Zifu's side.

When the shop closed in the evening, it was already full of honeysuckle.

And the little guy who came with Cui'er was a little worried, and one of them said worriedly: "Sister Cui'er can't go on like this, the silver we brought won't last a few days like this, and what are you going to do with these herbs?" ”

He felt that so many herbs were bought with money, so he had to find a way to deal with them.

Cui'er said with a nonchalant face: "What are you worried about, I have my own arrangements, I haven't received much medicine over there today, and we'll carry these baskets outside early tomorrow morning, they must be uncomfortable in their hearts, Mrs. said, as long as Lin Zifu is not happy, we will be happy." ”

She didn't care so much, anyway, she came here to find Lin Zifu uncomfortable, as long as Lin Zifu was unhappy, it was better than anything.

The little guy always felt that something was wrong, after all, these herbs would spoil after a long time.

Aren't you worried about breakdown? I couldn't help but remind: "But I heard that after the honeysuckle is purchased, it has to be spread out and dried, otherwise it will be broken, and the broken honeysuckle will not be sold for money, and you see that some of them are about to bloom." ”

He pointed to the honeysuckle he bought yesterday, which looked a little different from yesterday's purchase.

Cui'er became impatient: "I said, what are you doing so much?" Are you in charge or am I in charge? No matter how nosy you are, don't blame me for being polite, and I said, Mrs. arranged for me to deal with these things, don't worry about it, the sky is falling and I will support it, and there will be a carriage to transport it away tomorrow morning, Mrs. said, since this is a medicinal herb purchased by the Qin family, it is necessary to send the honeysuckle directly to the Huichun Hall in the county seat, do the Qin family dare not accept it. ”

The Zhou family is not in the herbal business, and they don't know anything about medicinal herbs.

And Mrs. Zhou's idea is very simple, since Lin Zifu dried the herbs to sell them to the Qin family, now that they have purchased the herbs and sent them to the Qin family, can the Qin family not accept them. In short, she is not in a hurry, she will be sent directly to the Rejuvenation Hall tomorrow, and everything will be solved.

It doesn't matter if she doesn't make a penny, besides, Lin Zifu wants to make money by buying herbs, she collects ten cents, and she doesn't lose ten cents when she sells them.

It was because of such considerations that he dared to raise the price to ten cents, and finally snatched all the honeysuckle.

For Cui'er's appearance, it had no impact on Lin Zifu at all, and even after returning to the village, she encouraged the people in the village to send it to the town to sell honeysuckle tomorrow, after all, Cui'er paid ten cents a catty.

This is much higher than her price, and another reason is that she sees that the sky has become a little bad, and there are still a lot of honeysuckles at home, so she must dry all the honeysuckle before the rain, so that there will be no backlog.

As for her, she is not worried about whether everyone will sell honeysuckle to her, and she is not worried at all.

Cui'er buys honeysuckle at a higher price than the market price, and according to her drying experience, it basically takes about six catties of flowers to be dried into a catty of dried flowers.

This year's purchase price is higher than in the first few years, eight cents a pound is really a high price, and at least about five or six pounds of flowers are dried into a pound of dried flowers, that is to say, a pound of dried flowers Cuier is more expensive than ten dollars, which is a lot of money, plus labor, and loss, basically can't make a few dollars.

Moreover, she believed that Mrs. Zhou suddenly asked Cui'er to come here to grab business, she must not be prepared, these honeysuckles were purchased, and there were only two ways to deal with them, one was to sell them, and the other was to break them.

As for Mrs. Zhou drying it out by herself, there is no need to think about it at all, not to mention that Mrs. Zhou did not prepare in advance, even if she starts preparing now, it is too late to estimate.

Aunt Ying naturally also knew about the things in the town, and saw that Lin Zifu was not anxious at all, but on the contrary, she and He Xiaoyan had been busy drying the herbs, and they also relaxed, since Lin Zifu was not worried, it proved that there was no problem.

Lin Zifu looked at the results of the whole day, and actually dried almost more than 1,000 catties of flowers, and the dried flowers weighed more than 100 catties.

Lin Zifu was happy when she thought of selling silver, but in fact, she was quite uneasy about the money she owed to everyone.

I always feel uneasy when I owe someone money.

And she knows that everyone's life is not easy, and she also hopes to get the silver as soon as possible, and then pay everyone.

It's just that I don't know what the specific purchase price of the shopkeeper Zhang is this year.

She thought that at least seventy wen a pound, otherwise she would really not make any money.

He Dayou didn't bring much honeysuckle back when they came back, and after the people in the village knew that Cui'er was Mrs. Zhou's person, they didn't understand Lin Zifu's approach.

The first to come to Lin Zifu was Tian Guiying.

On weekdays, Lin Zifu and Tian Guiying don't have many opportunities to talk, but she likes Tian Guiying a lot, she doesn't talk much, but she is very careful in doing things, she is also a very good person, and she is also a very popular person in the village, from the fact that those women are willing to follow Tian Guiying to collect medicine together.

Therefore, after listening to Tian Guiying's worries, Lin Zifu explained with a smile: "Mrs. Zhou came here to find my unpleasantness, if I care, then it is as she wants, I hope everyone can make money, the price over there is indeed higher than what I give, I hope everyone can sell more silver, so I support everyone to go to Cui'er's side, as for me here, you see that the sky is about to change, there are still so many honeysuckles at home that have not been dried, this time the change is estimated to take two or three days, so ah, this is a few birds with one stone, moreover, I'm also worried that Cui'er's side won't last a few days and won't buy it. ”

What she said was the truth, Cui'er was purchased at a higher price than the market price, even if the cost price of drying out was scary, if the purchase price was 70 wen a catty, she would have to cost 50 wen or 60 wen a catty, and there was labor loss and the like in the middle, so it would be good to calculate it without losing money.

And she heard He Dayou say that Cui'er hadn't shipped the honeysuckle away yet, and even the baskets she bought yesterday were still there.

That's the crux of the matter.

How to do it with honeysuckle.

So, she guessed that Cui'er had no experience at all, and she heard that Cui'er would transport the honeysuckle tomorrow, and then she would know what Cui'er would do with the honeysuckle.

Tian Guiying listened carefully to Lin Zifu's words, and smiled gently: "It's enough for you to have a plan in your heart, what I'm most afraid of is that you will push the business to others for nothing, since you have spoken, I will send all the honeysuckle picked tomorrow." ”

She came to ask because she was worried about Lin Zifu, and she wanted to know Lin Zifu's true thoughts.

Lin Zifu sent Tian Guiying away, and Aunt Ying sighed and said: "Cui'er is Mrs. Zhou's henchman, she was very arrogant and domineering when she was in the Zhou Mansion, and she was even more arrogant than her aunts, this time Mrs. Zhou let Cui'er come, she must also be determined to embarrass us, Zifu, you have to figure it out, if they continue, we will suffer a lot." ”

She was afraid that Cui'er had been buying herbs, and she wasn't worried about losing money at all.

The Zhou family can afford a big loss, and they naturally want to make a little more money in this small business.

Lin Zifu has a plan in her heart, and everything depends on tomorrow.

And Doctor Ye also analyzed it, guessing that Cui'er didn't prepare anything, she must have wanted to sell the honeysuckle, even if she didn't make money, she might make a move.

And the only one who buys herbs nearby is Zhang's shopkeeper's side, after all, almost all the pharmacies in the county take medicine from Zhang's shopkeeper's side.

The price of honeysuckle is relatively expensive, and the shopkeeper wants to sell the honeysuckle farther away, and the number of purchases is also the largest.

The first thing Cui'er will think of when she wants to sell honeysuckle is the shopkeeper Zhang, and the other is the relationship between the Qin family and the Zhou family.

She knew it, and she was waiting now.

So the next day, she didn't go to the town directly, but asked He Dayou to talk to Doctor Ye.

It's cloudy today, and there are a lot of dark clouds in the sky.

After Aunt Liao and her sisters came back from picking honeysuckle, they built a grass shed next to the oven.

At that time, when the oven was built, the only advantage was that it was built around the courtyard wall, and now it is much more convenient to build a shed, not to mention that there are ready-made shelves made of herbs in the yard, you only need to build wooden sticks diagonally from the courtyard wall on the rack for drying herbs, and then cover it with neat straw.

The shed isn't that big, just to cover the oven.

He Dayou's oven was very ingenious, and the smoke basically drifted out along the finished chimney.

She doesn't feel uncomfortable with the smoke when she adds firewood.

With Aunt Liao, they helped everything, and everything was simple.

Under Tian Guiying's explanation, the people in the village were very grateful to Lin Zifu.

They all went to the town to sell medicinal herbs, but after getting the money, they were all tacitly grateful.

And He Dayou knew that Lin Zifu was not anxious, and he was not anxious in his heart, just patiently waiting for someone to sell.

It's not very busy today, only some people who don't know the actual situation haven't gone to Cui'er's side.

Their side is very relaxed, but Cui'er's side is so busy that she doesn't even have time to keep accounts.
