Chapter 20 Money and Goods
It's always easier to tear down a wall than to build one.
In a few moments the boar was taken down, tied to its hooves, and carried it up to the table with a stick.
Zheng Butcher roughly estimated it, patted the chubby belly of the wild boar, and said with emotion:
"At least two hundred pounds! He's a good pig, and he's quite fat to feed himself. ”
These words made the old floating head a lot happier, and with a wave of his hand, he assigned the future of the wild boar:
"Slaughtered! Leave twenty catties of meat, a pork leg, and sell the rest. ”
Zheng butcher is here for this, although his family also raises pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks and other livestock, but the family has few people, too much to take care of, and if there is less to sell.
So I usually collect some in the surrounding villages, and then transport them to the county and sell them to restaurants to make a difference.
Although there is more wild boar, but when it comes to the county, some people have delicious game, and they don't have to worry about not being able to sell it, maybe there is one less.
The Zheng butcher was also excited, answered, and then pulled out a shiny pig-killing knife from his back waist, and was eager to try at the wild boar.
At first glance, it is prepared, but you have to wait until the preparation is done before you can do it.
The wild boar on the table was lying half-dead, too lazy to struggle, and looked like it was bent on death, and it was better to cooperate and be faster.
The brothers of Fu Dabai were busy dismantling the terrible kang in the fourth room and picking out the broken bricks, so that they could be built again tomorrow.
The children were also tired of crying, and gradually quieted down, looking a little sleepy, and the old Yang stuffed them back into the room one by one to sleep, and the apricots and cow babies in the fourth room were temporarily placed in the big room.
After taking care of the child, Lao Yang hurriedly went to boil water, found a pot for a while to catch the pig's blood, prepared to shave the pig's hair, and then found out the scale......
Hurry up and get ready to prepare, and turn around:
“!! Why are you still here? ”
Old Yang looked at Ah Yuan who fell behind her in shock, pulling at the hem of her skirt and never leaving her with a small tail.
"Didn't I stuff you under the covers?"
Lao Yang looked at the big house and recalled, as if she had stuffed three children on the kang in the big house!
A-Yuan shook his head:
"No, it's apricots, cows, and rabbits that go into the bed."
Lao Yang's stomach was dizzy when he was busy with food, and the more he thought about it, the more confused he became, so he lowered his head and asked her:
"Why don't you go back to the house and sleep?"
Ah Yuan opened his hand and hugged Lao Yang's leg, looking up at her:
"I'm scared, pig blood, there are a lot of people out there."
Lao Yang said he didn't understand:
"Aren't you afraid when you're asleep? Why did you still run out? ”
A-Yuan was a little shy, but justifiably confident:
"I want to come too, I was going to sleep with the apricots.
But my dad said that if I was afraid, I would follow my grandmother, and I thought that I might not be close enough if I was afraid!
And I came out again. ”
Ah Yuan stuck himself tightly to Lao Yang's body, barely had a little courage, and said with emotion to Lao Yang:
"It's scary!
Bloody hula pig, hum hum! ”
Lao Yang: ......
Ah Yuan thought for a moment and said:
"However, the fourth aunt's bark is more scary than a pig, and it is still a turn!"
Lao Yang: ......
Ah Yuan's big black and white eyes kept looking at her, and his thin arms hugged her tightly.
looks like she believes in her father's words, as if sticking to her grandmother can really give her courage.
Lao Yang: ......
What can Lao Yang do, she is just an old lady who eats soft and not hard.
I can only accept my fate and be a little proud to let this sticky granddaughter continue to pull her skirt and take her wherever she goes.
Fortunately, Ah Yuan has a lot of experience in the role of Little Tail, and he can follow closely and without getting in the way, and he does not delay Lao Yang's work at all.
The villagers had enough of the excitement, and then slowly dispersed, and Aunt Shi also left before killing the pig, after all, the family is not enough, and staying at this time is a bit like rubbing meat.
The old Yang family is not easy to keep, but they are just going to wait for tomorrow to send a piece of meat to Shi Da Niang's family, Zhang Langzhong's family and Zheng Tuhu's family.
Not to mention the previous care, even if you help tonight, you should be thanked.
There is also the village chief's family who takes a lot of care of the family on weekdays, and this time there is a mess of the child, and he has to send some to trouble others, so he has to show his heart.
The family is like this now, and others can't take care of it for the time being.
In fact, many families in Daxi Village have helped the Lao Fu family, and it is not enough to thank this pig for all the shares, so I can only take care of a few of the closest ones first, so that half of the meat left behind will be divided.
The rest of the meat was weighed according to the price of pork in the county, one catty and twelve wen, and the Zheng butcher gave more than one or two silver,
In fact, the pigs in the village are generally sold or collected at a price of seven or eight cents, and Zheng Butcher is already taking care of the old floating family, not to mention that he also counts the price of meat in the water.
Of course, he will sell it to a restaurant more expensively in the future, after all, this is game, and it can be sold for at least 20 yuan a catty.
It looks like he has made a lot of money, but Zheng Butcher definitely didn't take advantage of Lao Fu's family!
The butchers who sell meat in the county have a specific circle, and the households are used to buying their meat.
If the old floating family transports the meat to the county to sell it by themselves, they will not only be excluded, but they may not even be able to sell it in the end, and they can only sell it to those butchers at a low price before the meat goes bad, or pull it back to eat it themselves.
Even if you find a restaurant to collect, these restaurants also have specific people who serve meat, and in order not to offend those people, and in order to take advantage, the restaurant will desperately lower the price.
Back then, Zheng Butcher's father did not suffer the losses of those butchers in the county, so he saved his family business little by little and had old customers.
The old floating family was also very satisfied with this price, and both sides were happy, but the accident appeared when handing over the money!
At the moment when the old floating head took the money with a happy face, the house "hey~!! "Bang!
Wang screamed and then went silent.
Everyone present was shocked.
Ah Yuan opened a little bit of Lao Yang's eyes to cover her, not letting her look at the hand that killed the pig, and looked through the gap between her fingers-
Li ran out with a panting and sweating head and called Lao Yang:
"Mother! Four, the legs of the fourth brother and sister are completely broken!! ”
