Xu Hongyi saw his anxious appearance and said, "Do you need to be lower than them, just do the same." ”

"It's not lower than him, and it can't be sold."

After saying that, he went to the side to buy a knife, came back and stood on the edge of the stall and shouted: "Sell fish, sell fish, seven pennies a catty, if you buy it back and eat it, I can also help you scrape the scales!" ”

After a few calls, the customer was called, and someone asked, "Little brother, are you really a pound of fish?" ”

"Yes, Qiwen."

"Is it fresh, are we so cheap?"

"Of course it's fresh, I'm alive, you see it's still foaming."

"Okay, then you can bring me one, I want the big one, the best mother, the seeded one!"

"Okay, do you want to shave the scales?"

"No, no, I want to go home and raise it, I don't have to eat it when, it's so cheap, I may not be able to meet it next time."

Shen Baiding skillfully caught the fish and weighed the fish, and when he heard the man say that he wanted to raise it, he didn't dare to string it with a straw rope, and put it directly into the man's basket.

Soon the news of their cheap fish spread to the other side, and the people who were grabbing fish from the stalls came here again, and their fish stalls were as lively as they had been two days before.

Although business is getting better again, Xu Hongyi is not very happy, every time he sells a fish, he is thinking about how much money he sells at the dinner price.

Shen Baiding didn't care much, in his opinion, as long as he sold it for money, it was better than nothing, anyway, this fish was easy to catch, and the Gai family didn't dare to catch himself and Xu Hongyi, and if they sold out, they would catch it, even if they sold it for a penny or a catty, it would still make money.

They were busy with their work, and they heard someone shouting in the distance: "Sanwen, the fish here costs a pound, come and buy it!" ”

The people around the fish stall heard it and ran over there.

Xu Hongyi was stunned when he heard this, is the Gai family crazy, the fish sells for three cents a catty, which is not much different from giving it away for nothing, it is salvaged and shipped back, and then sold on the street, what do you do does not need manpower, and selling it for three cents a pound is not enough for wages at all.

When she pondered, Shen Baiding had already shouted: "Don't go, don't go, he sells Sanwen, and we also sell Sanwen for a catty, we want to buy ours, our fish is fresher than theirs." ”

These halfway customers all came back, and Shen Baiding weighed them again, and Xu Hongyi had no choice but to join him.

The Gai family didn't call anyone for a long time, and they began to reduce the price again, shouting: "It's two pennies, our fish costs two pennies a catty, if you want to buy it, hurry up!" ”

Someone in front of Xu Hongyi and Shen Baiding asked, "They have two pennies over there, are you also two pennies?" If it's two pennies, we'll buy them, and if they're not two pennies, we'll go over there. ”

Shen Bai was on fire, and he opened his mouth to agree, but was pulled by Xu Hongyi.

Xu Hongyi said: "The two pennies are too cheap, we can't sell them, you can buy them over there." ”

The people in front of the fish stall dispersed in a hurry, and even a person who had just finished weighing the fish and had not had time to pay for it put down the fish in his hand and ran over there.

Shen Baiding looked angry and said, "Why don't you sell it, didn't you see that everyone was called away by him!" ”

Xu Hongyi said: "Two cents a catty, it's too cheap, a fish can't be sold for ten cents, what's the difference between this and giving it away for nothing?" ”

"But what we're selling isn't fish, we're fighting for this breath, we can't be called down by him to make them proud!"

Xu Hongyi said angrily: "Your brain is pumping, right?" Sell low prices for the sake of anger? The fish we have worked so hard to catch, just send them out, catch and sell them for two days, and earn a little bit in the end, can we get it? You don't see it, they do it on purpose, they want to get a low price for us, we can't be fooled by this! ”

Shen Baiding calmed down and thought about it, it seemed that this was indeed the case, but he was angry when he couldn't sell the fish.

Xu Hongyi persuaded: "Forget it, don't fight with them, they can sell it at a low price if they are willing to see how long he can last, and the people in his family will also eat and drink, I don't believe they can always give it away for nothing, let's go, let's go back." ”

Shen Baiding said: "No, we can't go, we are here, they sell fish at a low price, as soon as we leave, his price will rise back, in order to sell him at a low price, we have to spend it here." ”

Xu Hongyi pondered for a moment and said, "That's okay, it's not bad to watch him lose money." ”

So the two sat down on the side of the road.

Listening to the shouting over there, buying fish is the same as grabbing fish, Xu Hongyi suddenly asked: "By the way, you said that the Gai family has more property than the Lu family, what are they doing, they have to rob us if they lose money and sell fish, they can really get out." ”

Shen Baiding said: "He still has a grange, I heard that around the town, most of the fields are his family's, his family's big granary, more than the house, all in the backyard, the daughter married Lu Dawang, accompanied by five hundred loads of grain, Lu Cai's house has no place to put it!" ”

Xu Hongyi was surprised: "So much grain? You won't be able to finish it for a few lifetimes! ”

"Of course, I can't finish eating, people have to sell it, and every year when I don't get it, I sell it at a high price, or I can't make a fortune."

Xu Hongyi gritted his teeth when he heard this, the rich man's family has a lot of food, and he still sells it at a high price in his hands, like his own, but he can't even eat it, and he is crazy to lower the price of selling some fish, okay, let you be rich and unkind, and the old lady will teach you a lesson!

She sneered: "Hmph, since there is so much food, it doesn't matter if there are shortcomings, let's help him relieve the poor." ”

Shen Baiding said: "Relief for the poor? How can it be! What kind of person do you think he is, there will be that kind of kindness! ”

"No, I'm not saying that he is relieved, but we are helping him to help."

Shen Baiding blinked: "What do you mean by being red?" Do you have any ideas again? ”

Xu Hongyi smiled mysteriously: "Don't talk about it now, I'll tell you in the evening, you guard the fish stall first, I'll go out and get familiar with the terrain." ”

As he spoke, he got up and wanted to leave.

Shen Baiding shouted: "Hey, what are you going to do, don't mess around!" ”

Xu Hongyi said: "I won't mess around, it's you who mess around, you wait, you must be happy!" ”

After saying that, she still left.

Shen Baiding sat alone and was bored, muttering angrily: "Don't mess around, when I don't know, Lu Dawang was kidnapped by you, and he was almost killed, and the dead girl pretended to be stupid with a bad stomach, fortunately, I was clever enough to see it, otherwise how could I find these good things......"

Not to mention that he was angry here, but also Xu Hongyi, who went out of the market, asked someone to inquire, and went to Gai Shoutong's house.

She didn't dare to go to the front door, and walked down the street behind the house.

After coming to the courtyard of the Gai family, I saw that as Shen Baiding said, inside the tall courtyard wall of the Gai family, a sharp top was exposed, there were more than ten in total, all of them were granaries, if all of them were full of grain, it was estimated that the whole town would not be able to eat it all in a year.
