Chapter 30: Strange Customer Needs
The shopkeeper Guo was happy, and Jing Tian was naturally happy. She made a smug look and said, "This method was taught by my mother, you can rest assured that I picked the mushrooms!" Seeing the shopkeeper Guo on the opposite side smiling and nodding, Jing Tian then asked, "Shopkeeper Guo, did you take these mushrooms from me?" ”
Shopkeeper Guo looked at Jing Tian's two watery little swollen eyes and looked at him, so he raised his hand and touched his short beard, pointed to most of the baskets of mushrooms in the basket, and said with a smile: "I don't dare to let people eat these three kinds of mushrooms that I don't know." For the other four, how about I give you ten cents? ”
"Huh?" The previous conversation was peaceful, how could it be that the deal was about to be made, and most of the baskets of mushrooms were only given ten cents.
Jing Tian's smile immediately froze, it was only ten cents, this is too bleak! "Guo Da Shopkeeper!" Anyway, he is a child, Jing Tian dragged a long voice like a coquettish. "These mushrooms are good stuff! How...... Don't you even weigh it? Jing Tiansheng couldn't help but question the price, and the two watery little swollen eye bubbles suddenly matched the pitiful look.
Shopkeeper Guo's eyes were about to narrow into a slit because of his smile, and there was a shrewd light shining inside, "Little girl, this fresh mushroom can't be put away, it will be bad in a day or two, I take it back, and I'm going to give myself a tooth sacrifice." ”
Yikes! Forget about this stubble, there is no refrigeration equipment in this world, and now it is summer, and most of the fresh mushrooms will go bad in one or two days due to their large water content, and some durable varieties will last for three or five days at most. Miscalculation, miscalculation!
"Then next time I send dried mushrooms, how much will you receive?" Jing Tian smiled, and no longer dwelled on the things in front of him. When he had just passed through the lobby of this restaurant, Jing Tian secretly observed the water sign hanging on the wall behind the counter. The water sign says Tongshenglou's signature dish, and a meat dish here is generally only ten cents. Although she has not practiced calligraphy much, as an investment bank project manager, many large companies that she usually comes into contact with in her work are listed in Hong Kong, and the annual report is naturally traditional Chinese, so the reading of Jing Tian's traditional Chinese characters is not much of a problem under even guessing.
Jing Tian glanced at the mushrooms in the basket, these mushrooms were fresh, and when they were fried, the water came out even less. With such a large basket, it may only be fried five or six plates. In this way, ten cents is a normal price. She decided that next time, she would process them at home and send them back.
Don't look at what the shopkeeper Guo said in front of him, he was very kind. But when it comes to price trading, Shopkeeper Guo is not so easy to speak.
In the end, Jing Tian and Guo shopkeeper negotiated, this oyster mushroom will be sent fresh, two pennies a catty, the rest will be made into dried mushrooms and then sent, mushrooms are seven pennies a catty, the number of loose mushrooms is scarce, and the taste is good, the price is the most expensive, it is fifteen pennies a catty, and the thatched mushrooms are set at ten pennies a catty because they want to be sliced and then dried.
The common people eat the most oyster mushrooms, and the restaurant occasionally sells them, so the amount is larger. And oyster mushrooms can be kept for three or five more days, no need to dry, just eat them while they are fresh, and the shopkeeper Guo asked Jing Tian to send them every five days, and each time it does not exceed ten catties. Other varieties are dried mushrooms that have been processed, and there are not many people who usually eat them, and they can give one pound of each for ten days, after all, a restaurant in the township does not have such a big sales volume for a while.
In the end, the shopkeeper Guo did not order the three kinds of mushrooms he didn't know, but told Jing Tian to pick more new varieties of mushrooms and send them, whether they are poisonous or not, he will accept them, saying that he thinks this method of identifying mushrooms from green onions is very interesting, and he wants to collect more varieties and verify this method of distinguishing mushrooms. Jing Tian felt that the request of the shopkeeper Guo was a bit strange when he heard it, but he didn't say anything, maybe he likes to collect samples and engage in scientific research!
Although the negotiated price was far from the value of these mushrooms in her previous life, Jing Tian was still very happy, because she had finally found a way to make money in this world, and she had also harvested the first pot of gold, a full ten yuan.
After negotiating the sale of mushrooms, Jing Tian took out the fungus and showed it to the shopkeeper Guo. She had just been distracted by the sight of Amanita albiocrum, and she almost forgot to mention the fungus. But when the shopkeeper Guo saw the wet fungus, he suddenly said that he felt disgusted, and said that their restaurant had never sold this thing and refused to accept it. Jing Tian faintly felt that this shopkeeper Guo was a little weird, but he couldn't say anything.
However, the kind shopkeeper Guo Da still enthusiastically instructed Jing Tian to go to the dry goods shop in the township to give it a try. Looking at the appearance of the shopkeeper Guo, it should only be possible to talk about this at present, when Jing Tian was leaving, he poured all the mushrooms in the basket into a big basket brought by the young man, and put the mushrooms on the table used as a display sample back into his own basket. While letting her go, he explained: "Hey, hey! Excuse me! Shopkeeper Guo, these are samples, I have to recycle. ”
After putting away his things, Jing Tian got up and was about to say goodbye to Guo Da's shopkeeper, but when he raised his eyes, he saw that he was squinting at Chen Liang, but Chen Liang was staring at the ground with his hands down, not knowing what he was thinking. Jing Tian was shocked, could it be that this shopkeeper knew Chen Liang? Or is there something else? Impossible! Chen Liang This is his appearance after disguise, no one should recognize it.
Although Jing Tian was already like this when he looked at Chen Liang for the first time after he came to his senses, she was still able to find the difference between Chen Liang from the very beginning, when he first carried Chen Liang home, his eyebrows were not this kind of thick flat eyebrows, but sword eyebrows that flew diagonally into the sideburns, and the left side of his face should be mud stains, not the size of a fist now, as if it was a black spot on his face.
Or, what did the shopkeeper Guo find and became suspicious? Thinking of these things for a moment, Jing Tian raised his hand and patted Chen Liang's shoulder, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, my dog's head is a little ...... Hey! So I'm so stunned all day long, and I don't know how to talk to people. It's for me to get something, shopkeeper Guo, don't be surprised! ”
"Huh?" Shopkeeper Guo was stunned when he heard Jing Tian's words, and he didn't look at Chen Liang anymore, "Hehe! It's okay, I said that this young man won't be angry when he comes in. ”
"Then we'll go first, thank you!" Jing Tian handed the basket to Chen Liang, pinched the ten cents in his hand, said goodbye to Shopkeeper Guo with a smile, and left Tongsheng Building with Chen Liang.
After walking back onto the street, Chen Liang glanced at Jing Tian coldly, and then strode forward. Before Jing Tian, who had a small strategy, had no time to happily share his joy, he was left behind by his comrades.
"Hey! Wait for me! Jing Tian hurriedly caught up. Neither of them noticed that the shopkeeper Guo Da kept looking at the two of them at the door of Tongsheng Building, with thoughtful expressions, until the figures of the two people completely disappeared into the crowd, and then turned away.
