Chapter 439: One to Ten

Early in the morning, a figure went out from the sneaky cat in the village,

"Old Sun, what are you doing sneakily!"

Suddenly stopped by someone, the other party was startled, turned his head and complained, "What are you doing? It's scary to die with such a loud voice."

The other party snorted and said dissatisfiedly, "If you weren't a thief, why would you be afraid? Didn't I call you because you were sneaky?"

Seeing that the other party's voice not only did not drop, but also spoke loudly, Lao Sun hurriedly grabbed his arm and walked to a place where no one was.

"Speak quietly."

The other party looked at him suspiciously, "What did you do?"

"What bad can I do?! Don't talk nonsense."

"Then why are you so sneaky? When you go out of your own village, you are still so quiet, who are you hiding?"

When Lao Sun saw the other party, he kept asking a look of swearing not to give up if he couldn't ask, looked left and right, and finally could only tell the truth helplessly.

After hearing this, the other party exclaimed directly: "What?! Are you going to buy pumpkin seeds, is that the pumpkin soup we drank ten days ago?!"

"Whisper!" Lao Sun made a shushing gesture at the other party and whispered.

The other party also subconsciously lowered his voice and continued to ask, "Is it the pumpkin I said? Where do you go to buy it? How can I buy it? Is it expensive?"

Faced with the other party's questioning, Lao Sun could only tell the gossip he had gotten: "It's the pumpkin soup we drank a few days ago, you can buy it in the county, do you remember the old lady you saw that day?" Just go to the old lady's house and buy it."

He hesitated for a moment and then continued, "Isn't my grandson-in-law working in a restaurant in the city? Yesterday he came back and told me that Master Ning asked Old Man Ning to help sell pumpkin seeds in order to give us people one more kind of food."

"I don't know if it's expensive or not, I brought all the money I can bring with me at home, and I want to go and see it this time, but I haven't decided whether to buy it or not."

After saying that, he warned, "I'll tell you for the sake of the good relationship between our two families, don't tell anyone else, if there are more people who go to buy it, can we still buy it?"

When the other party got the news, he was stunned for a long time, and was digesting the news at this time, and when he heard Lao Sun say this, he hurriedly packed the ticket, "Don't worry, you don't know who I am?" At most, he would talk to his family.

"You wait for me! I'll go to my house and get some money with you."

The pumpkin is so miraculous that basically the people of Taixi County have heard the name of the pumpkin, and there are many people who are more fortunate and have tasted the taste of pumpkin.

Pumpkins have a higher yield per acre than corn, and the taste is better than corn, and if they can buy seeds, and the seeds are not expensive, they will not be reluctant to give up that little silver.

It's just that they don't know how to grow pumpkins, and if they spend money to buy the seeds back, and then the seeds all rot in the ground, then they really want to cry without tears.

Hurriedly returned home to get the money, and it was impossible to hide it from the family.

"Wu Lao Liu! What are you doing? You're rummaging through boxes early in the morning!"

Wu Lao Liu's actions did not hide his daughter-in-law's eyes.

Wu Lao Liu explained while rummaging, "I'm going to buy pumpkin seeds with Lao Sun, you hurry up and give me the silver, I'll go see how the situation is, if I can, I'll buy some back."

Wu Lao Liu's daughter-in-law was surprised, "How can you buy pumpkin seeds?"

Wu Lao Liu didn't have time to explain, "You give me the silver first, Lao Sun is still waiting for me at the entrance of the village, what if he doesn't take me there when it's late?" Whether you buy it or not, I'll carry the money first."

The other party frowned and thought for a while, but still took out the family's silver from a crack in the stone at the head of the bed and gave it to him.

"This is three pieces of silver, and all the belongings of the family are here, don't spend them all for me."

"Okay, okay, I know," Wu Lao Liu, who took the silver and wanted to leave, just walked out of the door, suddenly stopped his steps again, turned his head and explained to his daughter-in-law, "Lao Sun asked me not to tell anyone else about this, and you don't spread it around. Those who know maybe

If we have more, we won't be able to buy it."

When Wu Lao Liu came to the entrance of the village and found the old grandson who had been waiting for a long time and was already impatient, his daughter-in-law thought about it, and finally carried a handful of vegetables back to her parents' house.

How does her mother's family count everyone else? Everyone knows that pumpkins are a good thing, and if they can buy seeds, her mother's life will be much better.

In this way, one spread ten, ten to hundred, hundreds to thousands.

The situation is similar to that of Lao Sun and his children, all of them are passed from relatives to relatives, and almost everyone who should know knows it.

When the two of them came to the door of the village chief Ning's house, they found that there were already many carriages parked in front of them.

There are also many rural people like them, who also want to buy seeds.

Everyone watched from afar, looking at those magnificent carriages and did not dare to approach.

I can only stand in the distance and discuss, and I want to leave but I am unwilling.

Wu Lao Liu and Lao Sun looked at the scene in front of them dumbfounded, Wu Lao Liu opened his mouth and said, "Why are there so many people?"

Lao Sun complained, "If you hadn't made me wait for a while, I would have come a long time ago."

The person next to him heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help but say, "It's useless if you come early, I'll come before dawn, hey, guess what? These carriages came earlier! People are waiting here in the middle of the night!"

Lao Sun felt a lot more comfortable after hearing this, and Wu Lao Liu also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, it is about food, as long as it is related to food, it is not a trivial matter, if it is because of him, Lao Sun can't buy food, and he will not have the face to see Lao Sun in the future.

"What's going on now?" Lao Sun followed the passers-by to inquire about his situation.

The other party also frowned, "I don't know, anyway, there are waves of big merchants going in, and we people only dare to watch from the outside."

Wu Lao Liu asked strangely, "Why don't you go in?" Didn't you say buy seeds here?"

The other party looked at him with the eyes of a fool, "The people who go in are all big merchants, if you buy seeds, people will definitely be able to buy more, if you are doing business, will you greet big merchants or individual customers first?"

Wu Lao Liu said without hesitation, "Then you must greet the big customers first."

The other party stretched out his hand: "Isn't that enough?" Even if we can buy seeds, how much can we buy? And if you buy this kind of seed, it doesn't mean that you can plant it, you have to ask someone how to grow it, otherwise we won't be able to plant it when we take it back, isn't it a waste of silver?"

When Wu Lao Liu heard this, he felt that what the other party said made sense, but he didn't want to come for nothing, "Are we just waiting here?"

"Or else? If you can't wait, you can go home." In this way, they have one less competitor, and they don't know which one killed a thousand knives to spread it, and more and more people want to buy seeds, and I don't know if there will be any leftover when those big merchants finish buying.
