Chapter Seventy-Three: Is This Old Woman Really Stupid or Pretending to Be Stupid?
Sister Yu suddenly pulled her aside and whispered, "Big sister, why are you involved with Liu Dongzi?" This kid is a well-known second-class dealer in the market. There are more eyes than our hair, but we can't deal with him! ”
"He doesn't have a good reputation either! The price of grain in our city was raised by him! He earned the money, and how many people were harmed, and he couldn't even eat food! ”
"Don't worry, eldest sister, I'm measured."
Sister Yu nodded with worry in her eyes and walked away, and Lin Tao turned out of her stall and walked towards Liu Dongzi.
"Yo! Dongzi was clumsy, and he didn't see that his aunt was also here to sell grain. I also hope that there are a lot of aunts, don't be like juniors. ”
Lin Tao smiled and shook his head: "You're welcome." Come here, what's the matter? ”
"Auntie, this food is rare at the moment. Have you calculated how much less money you have to make by selling that price? This kind of time when God appreciates food is not common. If you don't take advantage of this time to earn more, won't it be a big loss? ”
"What do you mean?"
"If you can trust it, the junior will give you an opinion, and quickly raise the price! If it doesn't go up, it will be sold at the same price as the mushroom, and it will be! One liter is more than ten yuan, and you can earn a lot of food! ”
Lin Tao frowned and touched his chin, and said for a while: "It sounds good, but the price has been raised, and there are fewer people who buy it, so I can't afford to delay!" It's a half-day walk home! ”
"Ahem! What kind of heart is this! Nowadays, there is little food, and there is never enough to sell, and there is nothing that cannot be sold. ”
"That's right! That's why don't you do that, I'll sell it all to you! As you said, is it thirty wen a liter? You said it, there is no grain that can't be sold, and maybe the price will have to increase tomorrow, and if you take it, you can still make a profit! ”
"No, it's not ......"
Liu Dongzi frowned, looked at the mother-in-law in front of him, and looked at this dress, his family background was not even average.
And the folds of this face, the yellowed and sunken old eyes, the shriveled and withered hands, hiss! He often labored, and he was so exposed to the wind and sun that he was not human.
Come to think of it, I shouldn't have seen anything in the world, and I don't know how to do business.
So he lowered his voice and explained kindly: "Auntie, you see that the mushrooms I sell now are all collected in five wen, and sold in thirty wen, and only those who make money can be called trading." It's not as good as this! My aunt sold me for twenty, I bought them all, and my aunt went home with peace of mind. ”
Lin Tao stretched her face and raised her voice: "Then are you talking about teasing my wife?" Let's sell thirty first, okay! I'll sell thirty as you say, but you're quitting! Go, go, how can there be a person like you! ”
With such a roar, many people looked at her.
Liu Dongzi lowered his voice uneasily: "Auntie, let you sell thirty, it's for them." I'm going to buy it for thirty, and what money will I make? ”
"You guy, you talk so strangely! Why should I sell it to them at a high price? Can't you sell it? Aren't you human? Besides, didn't you also shout at everyone just now, if you don't buy it at thirty today, you won't be able to buy it at thirty tomorrow? What's the matter, co-authoring is a lie? ”
"You, auntie, why are you still scolding?"
Facing the disgusted and disgusted eyes of the people around him, Liu Dongzi was obviously panicked.
Buying and selling people for profit, that is also a private matter. On the surface, I don't dare to be so arrogant.
Lin Tao suddenly remembered something "oh" and said: "I know, you kid, let me work with you to raise prices!" Oops! My wife, I can't earn your kind of black-hearted money that you buy for five dollars and sell for thirty dollars! Sell twenty and I've already made a lot of money. You go, you go, I can't do that kind of deal. ”
"You ...... "Is this old woman really stupid or pretending to be stupid?" Why do you pour everything out?
If it weren't for the fact that she was also selling food, and wanted her to earn more money, how could he tell her those words!
The people next to him turned their heads and ears, and many people pointed at Liu Dongzi.
"I heard that the price of this mushroom was raised by someone in a row. Could it be him? ”
"I look like it!"
"If that's the case, this person is too bad!"
It was really uncomfortable to be poked in the back, Liu Dongzi saw that talking didn't work, so he couldn't say it anymore, so he went back to his stall.
It's just that after this incident, there was no one in front of his stall.
Occasionally, if I ask for a price later, I will be pulled away by others.
The stalls that were still in the market before are now full of birds.
But what about the old woman's stall, there are more and more people!
In the market, a few other sellers of mushrooms also came to me because of the dismal business.
Several people surrounded Liu Dongzi.
"Dongzi, you say, what's going on?"
"That's it, if she continues to do this, how can we do this deal?"
"Why don't we lower the price? Also sells for twenty? ”
Several people looked at each other, and finally hesitated.
Liu Dongzi gritted his teeth: "No!" Can't fall! It's finally up to thirty, if this goes back, there's no way to say if you want to go up again! ”
"Then, we can't just watch her do business alone!"
"No! I've got a lot of mushrooms on my hands! I've got to sell it now! ”
"Uncle Li! You believe me once! ”
"Believe you? Okay! If the price can't rise in the future, you will buy those mushrooms in my hand for thirty? ”
"This ......"
"Humph! You kid, don't think I'm old, and my brain is not as good as you! ”
"I think Lao Li is right! This price increase must also have a degree. When the land is dry and you can't afford to buy food, you can't drag your family out to escape the famine? When the time comes, who will we sell to? Don't be spoiled by rats! ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
With that, the group dispersed.
Lin Tao looked at it and hooked the corners of her mouth. Sometimes, balance is just that delicate.
Soon, the price of soybean in the market dropped to 20.
The people in front of Lin Tao's stall also dispersed a lot.
After all, the price is the same, what to buy is not to buy!
And Lin Tao's side, the tartary buckwheat noodles brought by him have also been sold to the bottom.
For the rest, Lin Tao gathered it, and it was only about ten liters, and it was all given to Sister Yu's family.
Uncle Yu held it high and gave Lin Tao more than 20 large and small fish in the pot.
You know, usually the big fish costs 178 yuan, and the small fish also costs 10 yuan, and the price of the fish adds up to a lot more than tartary buckwheat noodles.
"Big brother, I really don't need so much."
"Do you sell the fish or do I sell it? I say how much is how much. ”
That posture, she has to accept it anyway, and she has to accept it if she doesn't accept it.
The fourth child looked at it from the side, hehe, he giggled.
The second child said vigorously: "Thank you, uncle." ”
Even the third child, who has never had emojis, is rare at this time, and he saw a smiling face.
As for the boss, who was already crumbling from the sun, Harazi was about to wet his clothes.
Sister Yu said beside her: "Big sister, you are really a good person! With your light, the price of the mushroom has come down, and we have hope of doing this business. ”
Pulling down the price of grain, this is what Lin Tao thought of.
But Sister Yu said this, Lin Tao couldn't understand it.
"Eldest sister, what did you say?"
Sister Yu smiled: "Do you think, the price of grain is still high, and everyone has not enough money to buy food, so how can they have money to buy others?" Now that the price of food has come down, we have hope of survival. ”
