Chapter 63 Buying and Selling

Half a month later, Wen Wan took the preserved fruit snacks she made to Wanxianglou, and she was going to get her last month's dividends.

This time, Shopkeeper Shen did not play with the abacus in front of the hall as usual, and it took a long time to see Yanqiu running away from the hall sweating.

He was scrambling to clean up the table, occasionally raising his hand to wipe his sweat. Seeing that it was Wen Wan who called him, Yan Qiu ran over and shook the cloth towel on his shoulders and said, "The shopkeeper is in the back kitchen, I'll take you over." There is a troublesome matter today, and the shopkeeper is not in a good mood. ”

Wen Wan nodded, and then smiled and stuffed the pork jerky she made to him: "Remember to eat some yourself, don't stick to your brother." ”

Yan Qiu hurriedly hugged him into his arms and touched his head and smirked at Wen Wan, his delicate face was full of innocence, so Lin Niangzi would remember what he liked to eat.

When he arrived at the back kitchen, the shopkeeper Shen was blowing his beard and was angry with the chef, he stood in the mess all over the ground and pointed to a few plates of steamed crabs on the table and scolded hatefully: "What are you doing!" The crabs have all been returned! On this day, can I still do this business? ”

The chef's eyes were also red and angry, and he immediately untied his sleeves and threw it on the stove: "Lao Tzu is gone!" ”

Shopkeeper Shen was angry, and when he heard him say this, he couldn't care about Yanqiu who was stopping him, he rolled up his sleeves and scolded: "Roll on, my temple can't accommodate your big Buddha!" Joke! Without you, the pig killer, I Wanxianglou can't eat dehaired pigs? ”

The chef's tears came down at once, and he turned around and rushed to the door, he followed the shopkeeper for ten years, ten years! But he left, but it was just a matter of the shopkeeper's words!

Wen Wan blocked the door and shouted loudly to call the guys for help to stop people, and gently persuaded Shen to shopkeeper: "Good words are warm in three winters, and bad words are hurtful and cold in June." What the two of them said in anger should not be true. Sit down and drink a cup of tea to dissipate your anger, and discuss what you have to discuss. ”

Shopkeeper Shen was also frightened by his chef, and only lowered his head and didn't speak.

Wen Wan smiled again and looked back at the chef.

After ten years of getting along, how can the chef not know the truth when he sees the shopkeeper's demeanor? He didn't want to pay attention to this old horseman, so he just wiped his tears and complained to Wen Wan: "I have never known that I only taste crabs in autumn, and the crabs in this spring are bitter and fishy, and they are full of water when they are opened, and boiling them is just a waste of oil and salt, what can I do?" ”

Shopkeeper Shen was angry: "You won't do it in a different way?" It has to be steamed! ”

The chef stiffened his neck and said, "Here you come!" Then there you come! Come on, come on, you do it and I'll see! ”

Shopkeeper Shen turned his head and said in a sullen voice: "Raise you to kill and eat?" ”

One of them was blushing and the neck was thick, and the other was tearful, but the moment they met their eyes, they couldn't help but laugh out loud and raised the corners of their mouths.

Wen Wan then handed over the shirt she brought to the shopkeeper Shen: "The shirt made for the uncle, although the material is not good, it is better than being close and soft." ”

Shopkeeper Shen's face was slightly lighter, he touched his clothes and nodded: "The best craftsmanship, you have a heart." ”

Knowing that she was here to settle the last month's dividends, he was not verbose, and after letting Yan Qiu take the clothes to the backyard, he took Wen Wan to the private room where he usually entertained guests.

"Because of the spring, this leather boot cloak is difficult to sell, and this month only fifteen taels of silver, this is the account book, you see." Shopkeeper Shen spread the thick ledger in front of her.

Wen Wan didn't pick it up and take a closer look, only glanced at it and closed the account book: "Don't look, Uncle Shen must have counted more money for me." ”

Shopkeeper Shen curled the corners of his mouth, he likes such a clever person very much, it is not possible to count more, but it is not enough to count less. Besides, she is not only smart, but also very good.

"There are a few baskets of crabs in the backyard, you can carry a basket back and eat it." You can't sell it, and you can't give it away.

Wen Wan gasped in distress when she saw him mention the crab, her eyes rolled and she smiled softly: "Uncle Shen's affection, I'll go to your backyard to take a look." ”

In the business field, the shopkeeper Shen didn't want to talk to outsiders, so he only sighed and took Wen Wan to the backyard to see the crabs he had spent a lot of money to get from the south. The crab seller had some close relatives with his own family, Shen Tongju's family, so he couldn't report to the official or pursue it, so he could only knock out his teeth and swallow the bitter fruit with blood.

When she arrived in the backyard, Wen Wan realized how many crabs the shopkeeper Shen said. Dozens or hundreds of bamboo baskets were next to each other, and they were all densely packed with black crabs.

Wen Wan raised her eyebrows and walked to the basket to check them one by one, before she said to the shopkeeper Shen on the side: "Uncle Shen, I'll pick out what you can eat here to make dishes for you, and you can sell me what you can't eat?"

Although the shopkeeper Shen is not a traitor, he is not a person who can easily be stunned by the pie falling from the sky, he hurriedly shook his hand and said: "If you can't eat it, it's useless for you to buy it, if you can eat it, you can just pick some and take it back to eat."

Wen Wan said with a smile: "The most famous thing in my hometown Qingzhou is this crab, which has to pay tribute to the imperial court every year, so I also know a little bit." I see that the shells of these crabs are still soft, it should not be in the climate, I want to buy them and raise them for a few months to try. ”

And she was gluttonous in her previous life, and she only went to the crab farmer to buy crabs, and she was no stranger to the production habits and breeding methods of this thing.

Shopkeeper Shen knew that the Lin family was in a tight situation, otherwise she wouldn't have to find a way to come out to earn money. Thinking of the clothes and food she sent, the shopkeeper Shen softened his heart: "In this case, you take this crab back and raise it first, and the money to buy the crab will be my stock." If you sell it at a high price in the future, don't forget that I, the well digger, am the one who drinks water. ”

Wen Wan saw that he was sincere, and couldn't help but sigh. When Pingshui met, this shopkeeper Shen was not thin to her: "Then thank you Uncle Shen, I'm worried about where to raise money for you!" Since it is a move-in, if the crabs can be raised, we will divide them into three-sevens. ”

Who is seven and who is three, it goes without saying.

Shopkeeper Shen knew that she was kind and smiled: "The risk is borne by you, and it is also a matter of two pieces of money, and it is just a matter of fifty-fifty shares!" You don't want to fight with me, it's something that can't be sold, and it's not beautiful for you to make a profit. ”

What can't be sent away, it's a blessing not to lose, but it's unthinkable for him to earn it. If this Lin lady hadn't been short of money, she wouldn't have taken over his mess! He knows all this.

Wen Wan had no choice but to accept his kindness, thanked him happily, and silently went to the basket to pick out the edible early-maturing crabs, so as to reduce some losses for the shopkeeper Shen.

At present, the shopkeeper Shen likes to be gentle more and more, there are thousands of people who can do business in this world, and there are not many people who may keep their hearts, but there are not many people who are kind and warm-hearted. Gentle, it's a leader.

"Uncle Shen, I don't have anything to grow, the only thing I'm good at is this cooking, I'll make you a spicy crab, if you taste it, if you can eat it, these dozens of catties of crabs that can be eaten are also a sum of silver." Wen Wan put on her sleeves, wrapped her head with a cloth towel, and prepared to make crabs.

Shopkeeper Shen naturally nodded again and again, there was nothing to do.
