Today's harvest is very large, selling bean paste and camellia oil to earn more than two taels of silver.

But the cost is also large, I bought a piglet, spent one or two halves of silver, 20 chickens and ducks each, spent 186 yuan, and there was still one or two silver left.

Wang Xiao put the little cubs he bought on the ox cart, the chickens and ducks were chirping, and the pigs were hmm-a-ah, like a zoo, very lively.

Liu Wan didn't forget Wang Lian's thirst, she bought big meat buns, noodles and rice, and there were not many rice noodles at home.

She wanted to go and see Wang Yi, but after thinking about it, Wang Yi had just been promoted to a first-class disciple yesterday, so it would be good for him to concentrate on his work, so as not to have an opinion from Dr. Guan.

Since he has been promoted to a first-class disciple, Wang Yi's food will not be bad, so let's wait for him to go home and make up for him.

Ignoring Wang Xiao's flesh pain, when Liu Wan passed by the meat stall, she cut another 5 catties of pork belly.

Although Wang Xiao would not stop his mother from spending money, when he counted dozens of copper plates and handed them to the butcher, his hands were a little shaky, and he felt that it was enough to buy a pound of meat, but obviously his mother didn't think so.

If it weren't for the fact that everyone eats fatty meat now, Liu Wan would definitely not buy so much pork belly, she thinks it is healthy to eat lean meat.

But children don't get meat for a long time, and they still like to eat fat.

Liu Wan's eyes were sharp, and she saw that there were still a lot of big bones under the butcher's board, which were directly piled on the ground, and she didn't plan to sell them at a glance.

Seeing this, Liu Wan asked how much does Dagu cost?

The butcher began to think that he was talking about a small row on the board, saying that he was 10 yuan a catty.

This is different from modern society, pork belly is 20 wen a catty, and small ribs are saved by half.

Because nowadays people feel that bones account for the majority, and there is no meat, they don't like to buy small chops, and they feel that they are at a loss, so the price is cheaper.

"Oh, the big bones don't sell, I'll take them home and stew them in bone broth by myself."

The butcher didn't expect anyone to ask for big bones, and no one ever bought them, so they just piled them on the ground.

Liu Wan didn't expect that no one would buy the big bones at this time, not to mention that the bone marrow in the big bones was delicious, the broth, boiled noodles or usually added some green vegetable stewed soup were all good, and they could also increase nutrition for the children.

Liu Wan said: "If these big bones are sold to me, how much will it cost?" ”

The butcher didn't expect anyone to ask for it, but if he could turn waste into treasure, he naturally wouldn't let it go.

He took the pile of big bones from the ground, weighed them down, and said, "About ten catties, you can give ten cents." ”

Liu Wan felt that with so many nutritious big bones, ten yuan was really not expensive, so she happily counted ten yuan to the butcher and asked Wang Xiao to put the pile of bones into the bamboo basket.

Liu Wan has seen it, there are leg bones and barrel bones in this pile of big bones, the bone marrow is rich, and the bones are thick, and the good broth can be boiled, and the ten cents are really worth it.

The butcher also feels that he has made a big profit, and there are still people who spend money to collect big bones that they don't want?

Wang Xiao didn't dare to speak, he didn't know why his mother bought big bones, the meat on them was cleaned by the butcher, they were all bones, let everyone gnaw bones?

But because of Liu Wan's coercion in the past, Wang Xiao didn't dare to say anything.

Returning with a full load, the two of them went home slowly in an ox cart.

I don't know why, leaving the market town, Wang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, probably to keep the remaining silver in the money bag.

After spending a lot, I earned more than two and a half of silver today, and now I have more than five hundred dollars left.

Qiu and Aunt Lotus and Aunt Jia from the village also came to the market with a basket of peas.

Since they were walking, they took a steeper mountain road, which was shorter than the usual main road.

climbed and descended the mountain along the way, so it was not the same road as Liu Wan, and they did not collide together.

When they were still walking on the mountain road, Liu Wan's mother and son had already finished their business and were shopping everywhere.

When they arrived in the town, Liu Wan's mother and son were already on their way home.

"There are so many people in the town, every time I come to the town and see so many people, I feel dizzy." Aunt Jia said.

Qiu smiled disdainfully, he was really a dirt bun, he had never seen the world.

Qiu's mother's family is on the edge of the town and often goes to the market, so she rushes to the market as if she is in the village, taking a leisurely walk and getting milk freely.

"It seems that it is not easy for Liu Wan to sell vegetables, I see that there are a lot of people who sell vegetables, can our peas be sold?" Aunt Lotus asked worriedly.

"Don't be verbose, let's sell it first."

Qiu Shi said, found a gap on the side of the street, and the three women put the vegetable basket on the ground, and they didn't dare to sell it, and they shrank their heads, so that people looked like novices from the village.

People came and went one after another, most of them just glanced at them and left, and occasionally someone asked them how much a pound was.

They thought that Liu Wan was three catties a penny, and she must have made a profit when she sold it to the town, so it should be a penny and a catty, right?

As soon as they said the price, the person who asked them looked at them as if they were fools, rolled his eyes at them, and said:

"Are your peas gold? So expensive! Isn't it the season for peas? A penny and a pound, you are a fool for me? ”

"And how much do you say is appropriate?"

Seeing that the momentum was not right, Aunt Jia hurriedly laughed.

"1 penny and 4 catties."

What? It's cheaper than Liu Wan said for three catties a penny, what's going on?

Did Liu Wan paste the peas upside down when she harvested them?

So what does she earn?

I knew that it was good to sell it to Liu Wan, but they had walked so many mountain roads in vain, and they were almost exhausted, but the price was not higher than Liu Wan's purchase price.

Aunt Lotus and Aunt Jia glanced at each other, although they didn't speak, they obviously regretted it.

Qiu Shi was also surprised when he heard it, is Liu Wan doing a loss-making business?

Is she so stupid?

"Hey, sell or not? If you don't sell it, I'll leave! ”

The man saw that the three old ladies looked at each other and did not speak, so he asked impatiently.

"Can you pay three pounds for a penny?" Aunt Lotus asked weakly.

"Hmph, the whole market is selling peas, if it weren't for the fact that your peas are still fresh, our restaurant also needs them, and I wouldn't be too lazy to buy them from you."

It turned out to be a person from a restaurant.

No wonder you have to harvest so many peas at once.

The three women told him that they were trapped, so they had to agree to sell it.

Everyone is almost fifteen or six pounds, and in this way, they have earned a total of 4 yuan.

The three of them were speechless for a while.

Not to mention the hard work in vain, they were also scolded by the rich people in the town, saying that they wanted to rip off customers.

The people in the town have a background, and they can't afford to offend.

The people who live in the village are very afraid of the people in the town, and they think that those who can live in the town are more capable than them, so the three old ladies let him drink and shout, and they dare not speak up and let others bully.

After collecting the vegetable basket, they didn't want to go back for a while, they walked around the street, and they didn't have money to see the excitement, right?

Just when a few people were depressed, they saw a stall selling tea in front of them, and Aunt Jia said:

"You can't come to town without drinking water, can you? Let's go have a bowl of tea, we're dying of thirst. ”
