Chapter Seventy-Six: Selling Melons
The two stunned thought that they had taught their wives and sons a lesson, they knew that they were wrong, but they didn't know that some people were stupid, and they wouldn't change their mistakes at all, they would just insist on doing their own thing, adding mistakes to mistakes.
Regarding the affairs of the second stunned family, Liu Paner was too lazy to pay attention, and she rested early.
Her style of acting remains the same, people don't offend me, I don't offend people. If there are people who don't open their eyes and want to bully her and the child, she has a way to clean up those who don't know what to do!
The next morning, it was still dark.
Liu Pan'er had already gotten up, put the family's ox cart on the old ox, and then carried the melon and horn honey to the ox cart.
"Sister-in-law, there is a big man watching in the field, you take care of the children at home, and don't go hunting." Liu Pan'er explained, "I took Dabao to sell melons together, and there are village uncles and aunts, so you don't have to worry about us." ”
Liu Paner walked to the child's bamboo bed and touched the sleeping faces of Li Nan and Li Rong and Li Xiaobao.
Liu nodded, "Don't worry, I know." Don't go anywhere, just at home. ”
Liu knew that Liu Paner was worried that there would be many stunned families and might come over to bully the children, so he immediately said that he would stay at home and protect the children.
Village Chief Li and his wife Zhou Cuihua next door also packed four baskets of melons and fruits, "Yuan Qing's family, are you okay?" Shall we go? ”
Liu Pan'er said crisply, and replied outside: "Ready, let's go." ”
Liu Paner drove the ox cart in front, Li Dabao sat next to him, and Village Chief Li drove the ox cart and followed closely behind.
On the ox cart of Village Chief Li's house, there is also a teenager, who is their eldest grandson Mao Dan.
Village Chief Li felt that the eldest son was too honest and honest, and the cultivation of the eldest grandson was imminent, so no matter where he went, he would bring the eldest grandson with him and gain knowledge.
Liu Paner whispered to Li Dabao, who was sitting behind: "Dabao, I'm very sleepy when I get up early, you can sleep, I'll try to be as steady as possible." ”
Li Dabao yawned and shook his head, "Mother, I'm not sleepy." ”
"You, you'll have a hard mouth, we don't sleep now, and when I'm sleepy at noon, you're sleepy, who drives the ox cart?"
Li Dabao thought about it and felt that his mother was right, "Mother, then I'll sleep for a while, and I'll drive the ox cart at noon." ”
"That's right!" Liu Pan'er smiled, "There's no need to work hard, when you can sleep, just sleep a little longer." You grow now, sleep more, and grow taller. ”
Li Dabao was drowsy in the gentle voice of his mother.
After walking for a few miles, we arrived at a remote official road. On the way, I met someone carrying something on his back, or driving an ox cart.
It is more than forty miles away from the market town of trading. They set off before dawn, and walked for more than two hours before they arrived at Baisha Town.
Liu Pan'er woke up Li Dabao, who was asleep, "Dabao, wake up, we have arrived at the Baisha Town Market." ”
Li Dabao quickly opened his eyes and looked around, "Mother, how long have I been asleep?" Arrived so soon? ”
Liu Paner replied with a smile: "I've slept for two hours, aren't you sleepy now?" ”
Li Dabao shook his head, "Don't be sleepy, the town is not as big as the county seat." ”
"Of course, twenty or thirty such towns under a county seat, of course, are not as big as the county seat." Liu Pan'er replied, "Okay, keep up with the ox cart." ”
"Got it, mother." Li Dabao should go down, and he has experienced the famine, of course, he knows that he can't go too far from the ox cart and the adults to prevent getting lost.
Liu Paner saw an old farmer carrying a basket of vegetables, which should be to sell vegetables, so he greeted him in the local dialect, "This uncle, are you going to the town to sell vegetables?" ”
The old man smiled and looked at the ox cart that Liu Paner was driving, "Yes, I can't eat all the vegetables at home, so sell some money to buy candy for the children." You melon looks yellow, it's really good! ”
Liu Pan'er smiled, "I grew it myself, I will find a stall selling melons later, I invite you to eat melons all the time." ”
"You're welcome!" The little old man waved his hand, but smelled the fragrance, this melon was more fragrant than the melon he planted.
"Are there any rules for setting up a stall in the town?" Liu Paner inquired cautiously, in case there are taxes and protection fees, I don't know how much to pay?
The old man smiled, "You can ask the right person, the vegetable buyer and the melon seller are all in the same place, you can't run around." Sell it elsewhere, get caught, and be fined a lot of money.
A small stall like mine only costs two pennies. You have an ox cart, and it's estimated that you're worth four cents. If the cow poops, unless you clean it yourself, you will pay two pennies more. ”
Hearing this, Liu Paner was dumbfounded, there were still such regulations in the bazaar. However, Liu Paner thinks it is very reasonable.
Caring for the environment is everyone's responsibility.
She didn't want to clean up the cow dung, so it was cost-effective and reasonable to pay an extra two cents for someone else to clean up.
"Thank you, uncle, is there any protection fee for this stall?" Liu Paner asked, "Do you want to pay another money?" ”
The old man waved his hand, "No, no!" Just follow me. ”
Liu Paner took down a melon and croissant honey from the ox cart and put them in the old man's basket, "Thank you uncle for telling us, these two melons are fragrant for the uncle." In this market, there are also melons sold, how much is a catty? ”
The old man often comes to sell vegetables, and he is very familiar with the market here, "It's too polite, you haven't started selling yet, but you can't ask for your melons." Now there are also small melons that are sold, and they are eaten in summer to relieve the heat, not by the pound, but by the piece. A good melon can be sold for two cents. Your melons are better, and you can sell them more expensive. ”
Liu Pan'er smiled, "It's the first time we've come, I don't understand, and we'll need more guidance from you, uncle." This is a little bit of our heart, and we can sell fruits and vegetables together in the future. ”
Two pennies a melon, quite cheap.
Liu Paner was worried about selling melons today, and estimated that these baskets of melons would not be sold for a few dollars.
She was depressed, but she didn't show it, and she couldn't let her mood affect the people around her.
On the contrary, it was Village Chief Li and Zhou Cuihua who felt that they could be sold for two cents, and four baskets of melons, there were hundreds, and they could be sold for two hundred cents. Now rice, ten pennies a catty, can buy twenty catties of rice.
When I arrived in the East Market, it specialized in selling vegetables and fruits.
They came quite early, followed behind the old man, set up stalls next to each other, and occupied a good position.
Liu Paner parked the ox cart and saw that there were indeed two melon sellers in the vegetable market, with green skin, not as big as her melon, and as for the taste, it couldn't be seen with her eyes.
Liu Paner took out two pennies and handed it to Li Dabao, "Dabao, you go buy a melon and come back, I'll taste it." ”
Li Dabao took the two pennies, took a little detour, and ran to the stall selling melons to see, there was only one kind of melon, so he picked a big melon for the two pennies and bought it back.
Even if the melon picked by Li Dabao is the largest, it is not as good as his own melon, "Mother, look at it, this melon smells a little fragrant, but it is not as fragrant as ours!" ”
Liu Pan'er took out a knife, wiped it with a towel, quickly cut it into five pieces, and handed it to Li Dabao, Village Chief Li, and Zhou Cuihua, Mao Dan, "Taste them all, see how it tastes?" ”
