From time to time, Shi and Xu Hongping went to the street.

The stone stopped and said, "Mom, we are too late today, and the streets are crowded.

Xu Hongping said: It's okay! We'll go and set up a stall across the street.

The stone lifts its feet and goes straight to the opposite side.

Xu Hongping shouted: Stop, stop, let's set up a stall here.

Shi put down his burden and shouted: Mom, you take the stool, and I will build the factory shed.

Xu Hongping picked up the stool and called: The price of our handkerchief has increased.

Ignorance! Will our business be affected!

Shi continued: Mom, don't worry, our prices will not fluctuate much, and our business will continue to be the same as before.

"Stone, your forehead is full of sweat, take a handkerchief and wipe the sweat away." Xu Hongping shouted:

The stone raised his sleeve and wiped it on his forehead, and said: I'm not a girl, what kind of handkerchief do I use!

Xu Hongping replied: Men can also use it to wipe their sweat.

"Boss, you've been looking for me for so long, and I've finally found you."

Xu Hongping asked: Guest officer, what are you looking for us?

The guest replied: I'll buy a handkerchief······

"Auntie, I know you, you came to buy a handkerchief last time, and the handkerchief was sold out······" The stone tugged at the shed, and called:

"This little brother has a good memory, I didn't buy your handkerchief last time, so I came here early this morning." The guest officer interrupted:

The stone said: Aunt is really hearty, what kind of handkerchief do you want to buy! My mom will get it for you.

The guest officer replied: I want two "peace" handkerchiefs and two "health" handkerchiefs.

Xu Hongping flipped her handkerchief and shouted: "Guest officer, you take it."

The guest officer took out 2 cents and handed the money to Xu Hongping.

"Guest, I'm sorry! Our handkerchiefs sell for a penny. Xu Hongping said:

The guest officer reached out and took out his coat pocket, and said embarrassedly: Boss, I only have 1 penny left in my pocket.

Or! I'll buy one less handkerchief······

"Auntie, don't buy less! You put the handkerchief in your hand, ······" Stone shouted:

"But money!" The guest officer answered:

The stone replied: If you don't want to go! You keep that penny.

The guest officer smiled: Thank you! Thank you!

"Boss, I'll buy 4 handkerchiefs."

The stone waved a handkerchief and called: Sister, what style of handkerchief do you want!

The guest officer said: I want that kind of handkerchief that is "heart-to-heart".

Shi picked out 4 handkerchiefs and whispered: A total of 4 yuan.

The guest officer held a handkerchief and asked: How much is the handkerchief?

The stone reiterated: 4 pennies.

The guest officer took out the money and said: Do you speak loudly!

Stone's cheeks instantly flushed (because the price of the handkerchief had suddenly increased, he thought that the guest officer was going to negotiate the price with him).

"Boss, give me 6 handkerchiefs."

Xu Hongping replied: The guest officer chooses by himself.

"Boss, I want 2 handkerchiefs."

Xu Hongping took a sip of water and replied: "Guest officer, you choose by yourself."

The guest officer replied: I don't know how to read, you can choose 2 for me.

The stone lifted up two "healthy" handkerchiefs and said, "Uncle, how are these two handkerchiefs!"

"Ahh What are you talking about! The guest officer tilted his ear sideways and shouted:

Stone shouted: Take your handkerchief.

The guest officer took the handkerchief and explained: My ears are not good, you have to talk to me, you have to speak loudly.

The stone shouted, "Uncle, you go and sit on the stool."

The guest officer took out his coat pocket and said: I won't sit down, I'll leave immediately.

The stone shouted: Uncle, a total of 2 yuan.

He looked at the old man and took out a money bag, which was wrapped in a layer.

The guest officer rummaged for a while before he took out 2 cents from the bag.

The stone pushed the hand of the guest officer who took the money - refused to take it alive or dead, and shouted: "Uncle, you take the money back" - take it well.

The guest officer said: I bought something, I want to pay.

Shi Ying said: I hit it off with the old man at first sight, and I gave these two handkerchiefs to the old man.

The guest officer held the money in his hand and called: How can you do it without collecting money!

"Boss, give me 6 handkerchiefs."

Xu Hongping said: Guest officer, what kind of handkerchief do you like!

"Uncle, you stand there - people come and go, you have money, you stand next to you." Stone Road:

The guest officer muttered: "Young man, I'm like this!"

"Stone, take two handkerchiefs, two handkerchiefs, and two handkerchiefs, and give them to the guest officer." Xu Hongping gestured and commanded:

Shi picked up a few handkerchiefs and called: Sister, you continue.

Xu Hongping said: Our handkerchief is a penny, a total of 6 pennies.

The guest officer handed Xu Hongping 6 yuan.

Shi Lidao: Sister, you go slowly.

Xu Hongping fanned the fan and asked, "Stone, why didn't you take the money from that guest officer just now?"

Shi Ying said: That, that old man, he is a lot old······

"Stone, that guest officer, indeed, it's not easy, but, we are in business, we are not engaged in charity, you can't see that older people don't take money, if you continue to do this, how can our business continue!" Xu Hongping reproached:

The stone said: Mom, you are making a big fuss, our business is impossible······

"You're right, I'm making a big fuss, I'm too stingy, I shouldn't care about you······"

"Mom, I didn't say you were stingy, I didn't think you care, it doesn't matter what you think of me! You listen to me first, you let me finish first. ”

Xu Hongping closed her mouth and was silent.

Shi continued: The old man who bought the handkerchief - his demeanor is the same as Min'er's grandfather, and I don't want to take his money for this alone.

Again, when he was paying, he took out the bag that contained the money, and that bag contained 8 or 9 layers.

What's even more unbearable is that there are only 2 cents in the bag······

"Stone, I know you are kind, I stopped you more to remind you that you are too kind, but it is easy to be taken advantage of······" Xu Hongping called:

"Please rest assured! The stone is poor and white, and the stone has no value for being used. ”

Xu Hongping muttered: I hope I'm too worried!

"Boss, I'll buy 4 handkerchiefs."

The stone continued: Sister, what kind of handkerchief do you want!

"Boss, I want 6 handkerchiefs."

Xu Hongping stood up and went to get a handkerchief.

"Boss, give me 2 handkerchiefs."

The stone called: Two embroidered words!

The guest officer replied: Yes.

Shi grabbed the handkerchief and said, "Uncle, give it."

The guest officer took the handkerchief and praised: the words on the handkerchief are so well embroidered, and the whole handkerchief is set off beautifully.

The stone asked, "Uncle, do you still want to buy a handkerchief?"

The guest officer replied: No, no, no, two are enough, two are enough.

The stone said, "Uncle, you hold the handkerchief steady, you beware of it falling out."

The guest officer asked, "Young man, how much is your handkerchief?"

Stone answers: 1 penny 1 article.

The guest officer hesitated: Sell me the handkerchief on the stall!

Shi Dao: You just said that it is enough to buy 2 handkerchiefs, this will be again!

"To tell you the truth, I'm a vendor, and I've heard that your handkerchiefs are doing well and selling well."

Xu Hongping called: This is true.

"You can sell me all the handkerchiefs you make in the future."

"We don't have a lot of handkerchiefs, you are selling handkerchiefs, we can't supply ······"

"Don't worry, I live in the next county, and I can't steal your business."

"Uncle, don't get me wrong, I'm not afraid that you will rob the business, I mean, the number of handkerchiefs we produce is not high, we sell handkerchiefs to you, what if others come to buy handkerchiefs!"

Xu Hongping said: Stones, we can make more handkerchiefs.

The stone muttered: Mom wants to!

Xu Hongping continued: Let's sell the rest of the handkerchiefs first—let's talk about it.

Stone whispered: Sell him these handkerchiefs - I have no objection.

The guest officer held the stone's hand and said excitedly: Deal, deal.

"Boss, give me 6 handkerchiefs."

"Let me buy the handkerchief, you will come again next time."

The stone called: I'm sorry big sister! Today's handkerchief was sold to this uncle, you will come again next time.

He turned his face sideways and shouted, "Mom, count those handkerchiefs."

Xu Hongping leaned in front of the handkerchief and carefully counted 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8······

The stone was attached to the guest officer's ear, and he secretly said: Uncle, go over and take a look!

"Boss, I'll buy 2 handkerchiefs."

"Shh~" Shi sighed, walked around to the guest officer, and said: These handkerchiefs have been bought by the uncle next to you, if you want to buy handkerchiefs, you will come back next time.

"Mom, brother-in-law, the meal is here."

The stone beckoned and called: Come here, don't disturb Mom.

Min'er pointed to the uncle on the side and asked, "Is he?"

The stone pressed his throat and said: Don't make noise!

"There are 132 of these handkerchiefs." Xu Hongping shouted:

The guest officer took out the money bag and said: I still have two more on me, a total of 134, that is, 134 yuan, which is exchanged for 67 silver bald heads, a total of 6,700 yuan.

Xu Hongping responded: That's right.

The guest officer asked: Do you want new money or old money?

Xu Hongping replied: It's better to have old money, but new money hasn't been popularized everywhere.

The stone shouted: Uncle, you eat a bowl of rice.

The guest officer thanked: Thank you! Thank you! I've eaten it.

"Mom, I brought meat porridge here, you come and taste it." Min'er shouted:

Xu Hongping replied: I'll eat it later.

The guest officer took out a large bag from his bosom and said, "Young man, please take advantage of it."

The stone pulled open the bag and went to hold the handkerchief with one hand.

Min'er leaned over and went to help the uncle put on a handkerchief.

The guest officer counted the money attentively.

Xu Hongping called: Enough, there is a total of 100 yuan here, plus 17 silver bald heads.

The stone pulled up the bag and said, "Uncle, such a big bag of handkerchiefs, you let me give you a ride."

"No, no, I'll just call a carriage on the other side." The guest officer lifted the bag and staggered back.

Xu Hongping picked up the bowl and said with a smile: I still had concerns before, worried that after the price of our handkerchiefs increased, it would affect sales.

Unexpected! Handkerchiefs are selling faster than before.

Min'er handed the rice to the stone and said, "The handkerchief is selling so fast, and the people who sew the handkerchief are me and Sister Erfeng······

"Let's ask some people to come and sew handkerchiefs." Stone interrupted:

Xu Hongping took a sip of porridge and said: The way is good.

But where do you want to find someone!

Min'er responded: Yes! Ordinary people have never even seen a sewing machine.

The stone replied: Yes, you can go to your father for help.

Xu Hongping thought for a moment and called: At this moment, I can only go to Officer Wang.

Of course, let's not get our hopes up! First, our family is not a factory, which can attract those who can afford it, and second, in terms of salary, we can't afford to pay it, and if the wages are less, how can anyone want to come!

Besides, our sales are volatile.

Shi replied: What Mom said is reasonable······

"What's even more coincidental is that Sister Erfeng is pregnant, she can't always sit and sew handkerchiefs······" 敏儿 says:

"Okay, okay, Shi took the time to go to the palace, went to ask Officer Wang for help, begged him to find two people who could step on the sewing machine, and let Erfeng guide them for two more days······" Xu Hongping shouted:

"Mom, brother-in-law, look at it, I've demolished the factory shed." Min'er stood up and shouted:

Shi moved his body and muttered: I almost forgot, I'm going to buy walnuts for Sister Erfeng to eat.

Xu Hongping put down the bowl and said, "Stone, after you finish eating, let's go together."

The stone asked: Mom, where do walnut sellers usually sell?

Xu Hongping responded: Most of the time, I will put the stall on the other side of the street.

"Mom, you put that factory shelf away." Min'er shouted:

Xu Hongping held on to the shelf and said: Min'er, you pull up the factory shed, and I will tie it up.

The stone took the food in his mouth and called: Mom, you let me tie it up.

Xu Hongping tied up the factory shed and replied: You eat your food.

The stone swallowed the rice and replied: I am full.

Xu Hongping got up and gasped: Then let's go.

The stone went to pick up the basket and walked gradually.

Xu Hongping shouted: You go this way.

They walked for a while.

Xu Hongping stopped and complained: This weather is really hot.

Min'er shouted, "Mom, you go over there and rest."

"Stone, where are you going!"

Shi glanced at his side and smiled: Except for the uncle.

In addition to Ming, he was puzzled: It's afternoon, where are you going with your burden!

The stone leaned over and answered: Sister Erfeng wants to eat walnuts, I'll go over there to buy some walnuts.

In addition to Ming smiled: You go to buy walnuts, how can you carry the basket!

"We ran out of handkerchiefs, and we went home after buying good things from there." Min'er pulled Xu Hongping to follow.

Jieming continued: Your business is so good!

Xu Hongping replied: Someone bought all our handkerchiefs just now.

"Boss, show me the one in front of you."

Except for Ming, he took the toy and said: Stone, I have business to do, I won't talk to you anymore, you can go by yourself.

The stone stepped on his feet and called: Goodbye except uncle! Let's talk another day.

"Stones, there are walnuts sold at the stall in front." Xu Hongping pointed to the front and shouted:

The stone quickened its pace.

Min'er was about to get started.

Xu Hongping grabbed Min'er and said: The stall selling walnuts is in front, let's go slowly.

"Boss, I'll buy 4 catties of walnuts."

"Stone, why are you buying so many walnuts!" Xu Hongping shouted:

The stone replied: Is 4 catties of walnuts too much!

The boss weighed 4 catties of walnuts and said: Guest officer, a total of 60 yuan.

Xu Hongping followed the walnut and called: 60 yuan, right!

The boss replied: It's 60 yuan.

The stone took a walnut and looked at it intently.

Xu Hongping put down the walnuts and said, "Boss, let's weigh some walnuts less."

The stone stared at the walnut and said silently: This is the walnut.

The boss asked, "Guest officer, how many walnuts do you weigh?"

The stone was startled and shouted: Mom, you pay the boss, I don't have so much money with me.

Min'er stood beside the stone and muttered, "Brother-in-law······

"Min'er, what do you want to eat?" Xu Hongping took out her wallet and asked:

Min'er glanced at the stone and replied: I don't want to eat anything!

"Boss, don't call you anything, we will ask for 4 catties of walnuts." Xu Hongping lifted the walnuts and put them on the basket and said:

The boss chimed in: I'll give you 2 more walnuts.

Xu Hongping called: I'll pay you 60 yuan.

Min'er shouted: "Brother-in-law, you lift the basket, let's go from here······
