Chapter XXVIII

Fennel saw that this shop was so arrogant and rude, and she trembled with anger, "You ......"

Xiao Jinyue said with a smile, "I'm not a casual person, but you are not a person when you get up casually." ”

Without waiting for them to react, she followed closely, "Shopkeeper, caramel sugar, cane sugar and cane syrup, give me half a catty each." ”

Xiao Jinyue was also dissatisfied with the rudeness of the shopkeeper, but he didn't want to have a verbal dispute with this kind of villain, but he changed the original idea of buying a pound of sugar for all kinds of sugar, and changed it to buy half a pound of each.

The shopkeeper's face changed, and he didn't know what to think, but he didn't say anything disrespectful, but coldly ordered the young man to weigh the sugar.

The young man walked to the counter slowly, weighed half a pound of solid caramel first, and wrapped it in oiled paper. The soft ones are also weighed, take a small clay pot and put it in, then cut the sucrose with a knife, weigh it, and pack it.

Finally, take out a small clay pot and weigh the cane syrup into it.

The young man put the weighed sugar on the counter and said in a loud voice, "The shopkeeper, the hard caramel weighed thirty-two wen, the soft one weighed twenty-three wen, the cane sugar thirty-five wen, the cane syrup twenty-three wen, and two small clay pots ten wen." ”

Fennel wrinkled her eyebrows, "You guy, why do you weigh too much of each sugar?" ”

The young man glanced over, "Isn't this normal, how can you cut the amount of each sugar just right?" ”

The shopkeeper over there acted as if he hadn't heard Fennel's words, and quickly took out his abacus and crackled and calculated, "A total of one hundred and twenty-three Wen, Xiao Gao, collect money." ”

Fennel still wanted to reason with them, but was stopped by Xiao Jinyue and motioned for her to give money.

After going out, Fennel was still angry, "Girl, the shopkeeper and Xiao Er of this house are so rude, and the things are expensive, why do you still want to buy them from them." ”

"I have my own plans, okay, don't be angry. It's not worth it to be angry with this kind of person and angry with yourself. ”

Xiao Jinyue naturally knew that the young man weighed more of each kind of sugar, saying that it was normal, but in fact, it was deliberate.

People like them who sell things all year round actually have a number of starts, not to mention that they can cut the amount exactly every time, but it won't be too different, unless it's a novice.

And that young man, at first glance, deliberately went too far.

She just didn't want to quarrel with them for more than a hundred yuan, and even if she won the quarrel, it wouldn't make much difference.

After these two sugar purchases, she can be regarded as having a preliminary understanding of the sugar of this era.

Whether it is sold in a stall or in a store, it is a small variety, dull in color, irregular in shape and mixed with a large number of impurities, and the lumpy ones are hard and difficult to cut.

Although she has not tasted it yet, she can guess that the taste is absolutely incomparable to modern sugar.

On top of that, the selling price is too high.

According to the price of goods she has learned in the past few days, the most meat eaten by people in this dynasty is mutton, and mutton is only more than 50 wen a catty, and the price of sugar can catch up with the price of meat.

She had been shopping with Fennel for a few days, but she didn't find a suitable business opportunity, but today's experience of buying candy made her have a plan.

She knows the method of refining white sugar from sucrose, and the method of refining is not difficult, but she has not yet learned the source of sucrose.

As long as the supply is solved, she has a way to refine white sugar, rock sugar, and brown sugar.

However, it's been a long time since I've been out today, and it's not too early now, so I have to hurry back home, otherwise her mother will have to catch her and talk about it again.

As for the supply of goods, after returning home, I will ask the housekeeper or the purchaser to inquire.

The two walked out of the store not far away, and happened to meet the little servant in the house who came out with a carriage to look for them.

Because there was only one carriage in the house, Xiao Jinyue was worried that her mother or eldest sister would use the carriage, so every time she asked the little maid to send them to the street, she asked him to set up the carriage and go back, just waiting for an appointment to pick them up.

After getting into the carriage, Xiao Jinyue suddenly heard a gurgling sound.

Fennel touched her belly with her hand, "Oh, girl, we all forgot to have lunch." The slave is so hungry now that she feels like she can swallow a cow. Girl, are you hungry? ”

Xiao Jinyue said, "It's my fault, you followed me for a long time, and you forgot to eat such an important thing." ”

"Girl, it's not your fault. It's all to blame on that thug Hu Da, if he hadn't made it bad, where would we have forgotten to buy something to eat. ”

"But, girl, you are too powerful, you actually made that Hu Da so miserable, not only did you fall a lot, ate a mouth full of shit, but also broke two front teeth. And the big yellow dog, those two bites are really happy. ”

If Xiao Jinyue hadn't stopped him at that time, Fennel would have rushed up and beaten Hu Da violently.

Xiao Jinyue looked at her with sparkling eyes, looking at herself with admiration on her face, a little surprised, "It's good that you don't think I'm cruel." ”

"Where is the cruelty of the girl, Hu Da wants to destroy your innocence in public, and her intentions are sinister. The girl's hand was still too light, and if the girl hadn't stopped her, the slaves and maids would have been eager to kick him to death. ”

"But it's good that the prince of Zhenguo sent him to Dali Temple, and he entered the prison of Dali Temple, this time he didn't take off the two layers of skin, don't think about it."

Xiao Jinyue was originally worried that this girl would think that she was too heavy, but she didn't expect her to be too light.

She crossed over to replace the original owner, and it is impossible for her to have the same personality as the original owner. She's never been the kind of person who lets people rub her rounds and flatten, she wants to be herself.

The master and servant chatted casually in the carriage, so as to distract themselves for a while, so as not to make their hungry stomachs too difficult.

"Sell pork, sell pork, fat and large pieces of pork, buy it back and boil it in oil to cook, it's fragrant, delicious and delicious."

Grunt.

Grunt.

The carriage passed by the stall selling pork, and when he heard the stall owner's shouting, Fennel's stomach roared again, and this time even Xiao Jinyue's stomach protested.

"Du Yong, stop."

When the little girl heard that the girl asked him to stop halfway, although he was puzzled, he didn't ask much, and pulled the reins and slowly stopped the carriage.

Fennel swallowed, "Girl, are you going to buy pork?" ”

Xiao Jinyue was amused when she saw her drooling greedily, "Yes, didn't you say that you were so hungry that you could eat a cow?" Although your girl can't buy beef, she can buy some pork. ”

Fennel listened to the girl's jokes, and she was not annoyed, but said with a smile on her face, "Girl, you sit down, and the slave maid can get out of the car and buy it." ”

As if he was afraid that Xiao Jinyue would regret it, Fennel jumped out of the car and wanted to rush to the pork stall when he raised his feet.

"Come back."

Fennel paused, turned around puzzled, shouldn't the girl regret not buying?

Xiao Jinyue, this girl, almost wrote the thoughts in her heart on her face.

"Do you know what to buy, jumping out of the car in such a hurry, and not afraid of losing your foot."

Fennel scratched her head with an embarrassed smile.

"Buy ten catties of pork belly, and buy some big bones, and if there are still those pigs in the water, buy some too." After thinking about it, he added, "Let's see if there are any pig heads, and if there are, buy some too." ”

Fennel looked surprised, "Girl, buy so much?" Although the big bones don't have meat, they can be used for stewed soup, but the pig is stinky, and no one in the house likes to eat it, and there is a pig's head, which is not delicious. ”
