Chapter 59: Buying Pears
Although the year is only 100 years old, it is really rare in a place like their countryside, and it can definitely be sold at a high price if it is made into furniture and sold.
This is not the point, the point is that everyone has such luck, Su Quan had to sigh in his heart, this luck is no one.
"Your girl's luck is really good." He has lived here for so many years, and he has never been to the mountains, but he has never encountered it, and good wood is really hard to find!
"It just so happened to happen." Bu Linglong smiled.
"Girl, there will be some wood left over from the furniture, can I sell this extra wood at a discount, but don't worry, I will give you money." Jin Si Nanmu, he is not so black-hearted, she still knows the bottom line of being a man.
"You can watch and deal with it." It doesn't matter if she gives money or not, she just likes the way he speaks, she has as many things as she wants, but she doesn't like those people who take it for granted.
"Don't worry, I'll make it very delicate for you." This is a big business, how could he smash his signboard.
"Okay, don't rush, take your time."
"Good, good."
Bu Linglong expected that there would be ten days to complete, but I never thought that Lao Deng was very powerful, and the work would be handed over in eight days.
"Su family lady, look at it, how is it." Lao Deng was very satisfied with the Su family's house, he didn't expect that he could build such a beautiful house.
It doesn't look special on the outside, but on the inside, it's really extravagant.
Each room is equipped with a bathroom, which he heard from Su Niangzi, which is specially used to describe the thatched house.
This bathroom is particularly special, in addition to the place where there is a pit, there is also a place to take a bath, although these two places are in the same room, but they are separated, do not interfere with each other, but very harmonious.
The most important thing is that this thatched pit does not smell at all, I didn't go to the thatched house, manually pulled a wooden water tank, and the smell was washed into the manure tank in the backyard, and the things in the manure tank were just used to fertilize the vegetables in the backyard, this idea is very ingenious.
In addition to the bathroom worth mentioning, the kitchen is also a commendable place, clean and tidy, even if it is full of various ingredients, it will not look dirty, but very orderly.
Throughout the entire Sujia Village, this house is absolutely unique, and no one can surpass it.
"Uncle Deng's craftsmanship is naturally out of the question, very good." Bu Linglong followed Lao Deng around the new house, there is nothing to find fault with, in ancient times with backward technology, it is not easy to build her ideal house, there is nothing to find fault with.
"Uncle Deng, this is everyone's hard work." She is not a stingy person, and if she does well, she will naturally have additional rewards, and if she does not do well, she should deduct money.
Clear rewards and punishments can make others more handy when doing things.
"I can't do it, I can't do it." Lao Deng was embarrassed to accept it, and refused again and again.
"It's not easy for everyone, besides, I'm really satisfied with this house, not much, just a little heart." Bu Linglong used a little force to prevent Uncle Deng from having a chance to refuse.
Lao Deng sighed with a smile, "Then I'll be cheeky and accept it." ”
It is his luck to meet such a master's family, he has not given a man-made house for a day or two, he has been doing this work all his life, and he has never met a lady like the Su family, atmospheric and reasonable, whether it is food or people, there is really nothing to say, her family is not developed who is developed.
After working here for so long, some gossip in the village has not been heard less, and the lady of the Su family in their mouth is simply two people who know him, and it can only be said that rumors can really kill people sometimes.
"What's cheeky and not cheeky, it's hard money."
"Mrs. Su, if the house is fine, then I'll leave first, and the other one is still waiting to start."
"Okay, then I won't delay your business." People who have the ability are popular everywhere.
Sent away Lao Deng, before Bu Linglong walked into the yard, he was blocked at the door by the second child in the family, and the two little ones looked up at Bu Linglong with high interest and said, "Mother, can we go and see the new house?" ”
They had wanted to see it for a long time, but their mother said that it was dangerous over there, so they didn't go, they only took a few looks outside, and now that it's okay, they can't wait.
"Go, but I'll have to wait for Dabao to come back." Bu Linglong has always taken Dabao to heart, Erbao and Sanbao are still young after all, only three years old, no matter how old they are, they can't remember the things they did in their original body, but Dabao is six years old after all, he has long remembered, although many things have passed, they have not passed, and it is very likely that they will break out again because of a small thing.
"Why, it's taken so long for my brother to come back?" Erbao said puzzled.
"We went to see it in advance, will my brother be unhappy, our family has to be neat, if you want to see the freshness, then together, is it meaningful." Bu Linglong tried her best to have a bowl of water, especially in her own affairs, Dabao was the eldest son of the Su family, and he needed to take on his responsibilities.
Erbao thought about it, if it was him, he would definitely be unhappy, because no one in the family waited for him, did he feel that he was not important enough, "Mother, then we will wait for my brother to come back and go to see the new house." ”
"Erbao is sensible, so good."
"Sambo, do you have any questions?" Bu Linglong's gaze fell on the three treasures.
Sanbao shook his head, he didn't have any problem, because Erbao proposed, he would follow and block the door, and now after listening to his mother's words, he also felt that it was unfair to his brother that they went to see it first.
Seeing Sanbao's answer, Bu Linglong fell her eyes on the old lady, and was about to speak, but was cut off by the old lady, "Linglong, don't look at me, I was pulled by Erbao, our family listened to your arrangement, what do you say, what do we do." The old lady was not so interested in seeing the new house, but the second grandson had to pull her to the door, of course she would not disagree with her, who made her a grandmother who spoiled her grandson.
"I'm going to pick up Dabao today, do you two want to go together?" Bu Linglong suggested with a smile.
"To go, to go." The second treasure and the third treasure spoke in unison.
"Mother, do you want to go together?" After Bu Linglong asked the child, she didn't forget the old lady.
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you at home." She understood Linglong's kindness, she didn't want to run around, so she cooked at home and waited for them to come back just in time to eat.
"Then we'll go." Bu Linglong didn't enter the house anymore, and went directly to the next village with the two children.
When she walked halfway, she was blocked by a group of people, and when she looked up, she saw a basket of pears in front of her, which was particularly fresh, and Bu Linglong was a little greedy, so she asked an old man closest to her: "Uncle, do you sell this pear?" ”
"Sell, how many catties does this lady want?" When the old man heard this, he asked with a happy face.
Today, the whole village of them carried their home-grown pears to the town's Luo Yuanwai's house to sell pears, and in the past, they were collected for five cents a catty, but this time they actually fell by two cents and three cents a catty.
They argued for a long time with the steward of Luo Yuanwai's house, and the steward was stunned and did not let go, and said that if they love to sell or not, they will get out if they don't sell.
Sanwen a catty, they don't make money at all, but will lose money, who will sell at a loss, people who think the same way as him don't want to sell pears low, so they came back from the town with pears, it's a little tired to walk here, and the big guy is resting on the side.
"How do you sell these pears?" Bu Linglong jumped out of the carriage, picked up a pear in the basket, looked at it, and asked.
"This lady, you can taste this pear first, this one doesn't charge any money." The old man took a pear again and handed it to Bu Linglong, asking her to taste it first and then buy it.
"Don't taste it, bring me five catties." She had already seen it just now, this pear was fresh, and Wuwen was no longer expensive.
"Okay, wait a minute." The old man hurriedly asked his son to help weigh the pears.
"Uncle, are you going to the town to sell pears?" Bu Linglong asked curiously.
At a glance, there are dozens of baskets of pears parked on the side of the road, and I don't know whether to go to the town or back to the village, so as not to say the wrong thing and cause public outrage.
"Hey, I'm afraid this pear is going to be smashed in my hand, and no one will buy it." The old man said with a sad face.
"How so? Your pears are very fresh. And she just felt that these pears don't taste bad, so why can't they be sold.
Besides, this is a fruit, and fruit is a precious thing here, and what fool doesn't want these pears.
"In previous years, we were sold to Luo Yuanwai in the town, and when we went over today, the steward pressed the price to three cents a catty, which was too low, and I didn't agree with everyone, and came back with pears again." Although it is said that selling at a low price is also selling, once it is sold like this, it is impossible to sell it at a high price.
Luo Yuanwai did this year, and it is very likely that the price will be lowered next year, so that there will be no harvest at home.
When Bu Linglong heard the price of pears, her brows furrowed slightly, and no one was willing to sell the pears that she had worked hard for a whole year at a low price.
Like them, there is no source of income for these pears.
"This lady, a total of twenty-five texts." At this time, the pears just happened to be weighed.
"Okay." Bu Linglong took out the purse specially made for her by the old lady, counted out twenty-five copper plates from it and handed them to the other party.
I picked up a pear from the bamboo and rattan basket, rubbed it on my clothes, and took a bite of it, and the juice in my mouth was sweet and delicious.
It's a pity that such plump pears are sold at a low price, and it makes sense that the old man would rather not earn a penny than sell them at a low price.
The round melons planted in the yard have grown a lot, and she already knows that the round melons are their favorite watermelons.
I have a ready-made shop, so why not just sell fruit.
"Uncle, where do you live?" Bu Linglong likes to act when she has a plan.
"Wangjia Village not far ahead." The old man pointed to the looming village in front of him.
"Uncle, if you can trust me, tomorrow morning, you will come to my house with your pears, and I will collect your pears. And go back to the village and tell the villagers in the village, as long as it is a good pear, I will collect it here, and I will not harvest the bad fruit and rotten fruit, if I find that it is shoddy, I will not collect any of their pears. The price is six pounds a catty, what do you think? Bu Linglong told the old man about her idea of harvesting fruits, but she didn't collect everything, if anyone thought she was a bully, she would let them know how good she was.
"......" The old man was stunned, if it wasn't for the son next to him who pushed him, he wouldn't have come back to his senses.
"Daddy."
“…… This lady, you, what you said is true? The old man swallowed his saliva and asked excitedly and cautiously.
"Uncle, how could I lie to you, just pick the pears tomorrow and take them to Su Hansong's house in Sujia Village. This is my husband's house. Bu Linglong naturally knew why the old man was like this, and anyone would not be sure about it.
