Chapter 22 Making money
He put it down and said to Ye Xuanxuan: "Ye girl, Uncle Qiu is also a sincere person, give you a good price." The main thing is that you are all experts, and you have done a good job of sorting out these herbs, and it is also hard money. After speaking, he also looked at Ye Xuanxuan and waited to see what she said.
As soon as she heard what he said, Ye Xuanxuan hurriedly nodded: "What Uncle Qiu said is that we naturally believe you." You give a price! ”
Master Qiu saw that she was also sensible, thought about it and said to her: "These herbs of yours are relatively ordinary varieties, so the price is not high." Seeing that you have sorted it out so well, Uncle Qiu will add more. He turned his face to the herbs and made a point. Because these are freshly picked, the price will be cheaper, because we usually have to take them to the sun or process. After saying that, he called the young man over and asked him to find a basket to load.
"Ye girl, Uncle Qiu has taken all of these. These add up to a total of nine catties and three taels, so I'll count you as ten catties! After speaking, he paused and said: "Because it is an ordinary medicinal material, and the price is almost the same, those will be counted separately and weighed down for a total of five hundred and fifty copper coins." Uncle Qiu doesn't say much, he will add a whole number to you, even if it is six hundred Wen. Ye Yatou thinks this price is feasible? After speaking, he looked at Ye Xuanxuan with a smile, waiting for her answer.
The calculation of silver coins in this era is still very good, one tael of silver is equal to one penny, and there are 1,000 copper plates in one hanging. The money here is the same as the ancient Chinese currency, and it is also a copper coin with a square hole in the middle of the circle.
She still doesn't know much about the current prices, after all, Ye Daya has never had money in her hands before, and Ye is only Niang, who can use money. And even the red envelopes for the New Year were taken away by the Lu family in a blink of an eye, under the pretext of living after the New Year.
After listening to Master Qiu's words, she knew that he was giving a sincere price, because she had also calculated it in her heart, and she didn't increase or bargain more.
If she picks up medicine again, she still wants to sell it here.
After all, she also wants to do long-term trading, and when she doesn't have enough savings, she can only rely on selling herbs. Thinking like this, she immediately nodded: "That's six hundred Wen, thank you Uncle Qiu." "After that, I also helped the young man to load the herbs.
Master Qiu nodded when he saw that she agreed, and called another young man to go to the account room to get copper coins.
got the money and handed it to Ye Xuanxuan, then turned around and went out again. Nowadays, there are a little more copper coins that are strung with threads, so that it is easy to take.
looked at her younger siblings, Ye Xuanxuan put away the copper coins and put them close to her. After thinking about it, he took out the thread again, took out the fifty copper plate, and put it in his sleeve. I put away the other five hundred and fifty papers.
was helped out of the room by Ye Erya and Ye Bao'er, and the three of them were ready to go out.
Looking at the sky, it was still very early, and Ye Xuanxuan wanted to go to the market now.
When I was about to walk to the door, I was stopped.
"Ye girl, you take this, eat it on the way!" It was Master Qiu, and he was still holding a small paper bag in his hand and stuffed it into Ye Bao'er's hand.
Ye Bao'er was confused by this sudden action, and looked up at his eldest sister. Ye Xuanxuan looked at him and nodded: "Then thank you Uncle Qiu." Master Qiu looked at the sky and didn't say much, just let them have more herbs to sort out and send them to their store. Ye Xuanxuan was naturally happy in her heart, and agreed with a smile, but her face was not happy.
After leaving the pharmacy, Ye Erya and Ye Bao'er still felt like they were in the clouds. They're really making money, and a lot of money!
I don't blame these two little ones, after all, they have never seen so many copper coins. The Lu family will not give it, and the others are even more impossible. In their eyes, they can be happy for a long time even for a few pennies, let alone a few hundred.
"Eldest sister, are we really rich?" Ye Erya asked a little confused.
Ye Xuanxuan squeezed her hand and reminded in a low voice: "Let's go back and talk about it, although there is patrol protection here, we are all children." Inevitably, there will be those who have unclean hands and feet, and it will be troublesome if they are heard. After finishing speaking, panic flashed in Ye Erya's eyes. Ye Xuanxuan sighed when she saw her like this: "Don't worry, let's be natural." Just don't talk about money out loud. He looked at Ye Bao'er again, and was relieved to see that he also understood.
Ye Erya was frightened by what Ye Xuanxuan said, and now she relaxed a little more when she heard her say such things again.
Ye Xuanxuan said that she was going to the market, and Ye Erya led her forward.
They are now in the main street of Xianzhi Town, and the road after crossing the main street is much narrower, but there are more people. There are stalls shouting everywhere, and it seems that this is a market.
"Are you hungry or not, what do you want to eat, sister will buy it for you." As he spoke, he looked at the place. To say, it is really a lot more lively here, the shops on both sides are much smaller than the main street, and they are also more dilapidated, and most of the things are sold very miscellaneous. On the roadside are stalls selling all kinds of snacks, some selling rouge, gouache, hairpins, headdresses, toys and so on.
Ye Bao'er felt that her eyes couldn't see it, and it was strange to look at anything.
It was the first time that Ye Erya had gone shopping so leisurely, and it was just a hurried walk to come together with the Lu family. Although she was not as obviously excited as Ye Bao'er, looking at her sparkling eyes revealed her thoughts.
Ye Xuanxuan saw that there were countless snacks selling steamed buns, dumplings, chaos, and croquettes.
After thinking about it, he said to them, "Let's eat some now!" What do you want to eat, my sister buys it for you to eat. After speaking, he looked at them and waited for them to choose.
Ye Baoer was curious about everything, and she didn't know if it was delicious or not. I was only interested in the steamed buns, because every time I went to the town, the children would go back to the village to show off that they had eaten the steamed buns in the town. He hasn't eaten many white-flour steamed buns, and he hasn't eaten steamed buns.
In the end, he thought about it and looked at it, and finally decided to eat steamed buns, although he wanted to eat steamed buns, but steamed buns were more expensive. He is sensible and does not want to spend money indiscriminately. "Sister, I want to eat steamed buns." After speaking, he looked at Ye Erya and said, "What does the second sister eat?" Ye Erya thought the same as he thought, so he also promised her to eat steamed buns too.
Ye Xuanxuan looked at them like this, and she didn't have to think about it to know that they were trying to save money.
The three of them walked to the stall selling steamed buns, and Ye Xuanxuan asked the price. Steamed buns cost a penny, they are very big, and they can eat enough for each of them. The bun costs two pennies a piece, looking at the fat bag, there is a big one as big as a small bowl. Ye Xuanxuan asked the boss to wrap 4 buns and two steamed buns, just ten cents. I took out the money, took the paper bag containing the food and left the position.
While walking, he took out the buns and distributed them to Ye Erya and Ye Bao'er, Ye Erya took the buns and hesitated for a moment and said to Ye Xuanxuan: "Sister, I only have steamed buns." "I want to change it.
Ye Xuanxuan had to pull her face and say to her: "We all have to eat today, let's all eat, and leave one for Dad." There are two other steamed buns that are not enough to eat. "After that, I have to watch them eat.
Ye Bao'er ate the buns with a happy face, and sighed in her mouth: "Sister, this bun is so delicious, there is meat in it!" "Ye Erya is also the first time to eat it, and it is still a meat bun made of white flour. Ye Xuanxuan touched his head and didn't say anything.
I didn't agree with it in my heart, but I glanced at it. This bun is not as delicious as the modern vegetable bun, there is very little meat, and the filling is not delicious! I'm used to eating modern steamed buns, which can not be compared to ancient times without seasonings. Naturally, she couldn't say this, and it was strange to say it.
Eating and walking while watching, Ye Xuanxuan didn't do anything else, just watched and didn't buy. She now wants to understand the things of this period, as well as the prices and so on.
