Chapter 9: Xin Gui
At breakfast, Father Luo found out that his second son was not there, and asked, "Where did the second son go?" ”
Luo Xuelei raised his hand and said, "Great, my second brother has entered the city, let me tell you." ”
"What? Town! Huanggang went fifty or sixty miles to the county seat, and he went to the county seat alone, a living ghost. ”
Father Luo was furious, and he wanted to smash the table: "When did you leave?" ”
Luo Xuelei was a little panicked, and muttered: "I can't remember, it wasn't dawn yet, and I was in a daze." ”
Luo Xuefeng, who was eating, interjected: "It should be the first half of the night, Hengheng is noisy, I haven't fallen asleep yet, I heard the movement and looked at the window, the moon head is still very big." ”
"Bubble Zizi, when he comes back, I won't kill him, he's so bold, I don't know ......"
Father Luo didn't finish speaking, but the knuckles of his fists were bulging, and Luo Xuelei didn't dare to talk at all.
Seeing her husband like this, Mrs. Luo was also worried.
"Nothing will happen to Er'er, why are you so daring."
What can Luo Xueyun do?
No.
The so-called body with a sharp blade, murderous intent, stepping into the door of cultivation, the results of refining and refining qi made him deaf and clear, and his strength was strong, which gave him the confidence to perceive and avoid and even face danger.
Walking at night empty-handed, without even turning on a flashlight, when you see such a person on the road, it is the other party who should be afraid.
Although this road is far away, it is extraordinarily calm, and only some birds and beasts who are accustomed to staying up late let out a roar that does not want to sleep.
When he was about to arrive at the county seat, Luo Xueyun took out the basket pick from the storage space, followed the flow of people, asked questions as he walked, and walked towards the market.
He came a little late, and the market was already crowded with stalls, so Luo Xueyun had to see the stitches and unload the flat burden next to a big brother who sold bamboo products.
Luo Xueyun nodded and smiled, even if he said hello, the eldest brother returned with a warm smile.
Spread the small bamboo mat on the ground, take out the cabbage and put it out, Luo Xueyun waited for the customer to come to the door.
Unexpectedly, the customer did not wait, but waited for a young man with an armband.
"Selling vegetables?"
"Yes, comrade is in trouble?"
"Management fee, a dime."
"I haven't opened yet, so I'm going to charge a management fee?"
"Bring the goods into the door."
"You represent ......"
"Alas......" The eldest brother next to him hurriedly shouted, attracting the attention of the young man with armbands, "Lao Chen, this is my old watch from the countryside, the first time I entered the city and I am not sensible, I will help him pay the management fee, come and smoke a cigarette." ”
As he spoke, he brought money and cigarettes to the young man with the armband.
The man took it and said, "Teach you a good lesson, don't be rustic and don't understand the rules." ”
"That's nature, isn't this the first time I've been here?"
Luo Xueyun watched the man leave, like an eight-legged crab with a crooked posture, and only turned back after a long time and asked, "My name is Luo Xueyun, Tian Ji, what is the name of the eldest brother?" ”
"Xingui is from Xinzhuang on the edge of the city."
"Brother Gui, what is this person's identity and why does he collect money? Are we the official market? ”
Xin Gui lowered his voice: "Where is there a public market now, it is all spontaneous from everyone, that guy's name is Chen Qiang, the people in the city have no jobs, it is the street near this market, under the banner of the street and some people collect some management fees, and the people do not raise officials and do not hold them accountable, it is not easy to offend." ”
"Well, I hope he can survive this year." Luo Xueyun muttered.
"What did you say?"
"I said thank you, brother, for helping me pay the management fee, I don't have any money now, and I will pay you back when I sell the vegetables."
"Hey, whatever you say, it's all a matter of the villagers."
Xin Gui smiled: "You don't have a signboard like this, you can't sit still, you have to shout." ”
"Huh?"
"How much does this little cabbage sell for a pound."
"Four-five."
"It's a bit high."
"It's not high, my little cabbage grows big, and it tastes sweet and silky, and it's very crispy."
"Everybody sells for four cents." Xin Gui said honestly, "I'll help you shout twice first, you learn to see." ”
He stood up, crossed his hands on his hips, puffed out his chest and shouted: "Little cabbage, sell little cabbage, sweet and crispy, four and a half pounds." ”
Xin Gui's voice was loud, repeating it twice, whether to buy it or not, and there were many more passers-by who paid attention to them.
"Understood?"
"Got it." Luo Xueyun asked, "Brother Gui, don't you need to shout to sell bamboo baskets?" ”
"Haha."
Xin Gui patted the bamboo basket and said: "I came to report at two ends in three days, and everyone who visited the market recognized me, knowing that I was in this position, if you want to buy a basket, you can find me, no need to shout, and it will be the same when you are familiar." ”
Luo Xueyun nodded, suppressed his breathing, and shouted: "Selling cabbage, the cabbage grown in the mountains, is not sweet, crisp, and does not require money." ”
The sound is rich and far more expensive than Xingui.
The latter was dumbfounded.
Not to mention, the effect is very good, many people heard the sound and moved and came over to look at the cabbage.
"How much is a pound."
"Four-three." Luo Xueyun took the initiative to reduce the price, hoping to reach a deal.
The lady carrying the vegetable basket said, "Is it really sweet and crispy?" ”
"Auntie, if you don't believe it, you pinch it, it's all out of the water, my little cabbage is not ordinary, it's very big."
The eldest lady looked through it repeatedly, rummaged through the roots and leaves, and finally said, "Weigh me two catties." ”
"Okay."
Luo Xueyun flipped up the rod scale: "More than two catties, tall, just opened, I will charge you eight points, auntie, look?" ”
The eldest lady nodded, put the little cabbage into the vegetable basket, took out a handful of money from her pocket, counted eight points and handed it to Luo Xueyun.
"Welcome to the next time."
Watching the eldest lady leave, Xin Gui smiled and said, "Why are you still dragging the text, welcome to be on TV." ”
"Mouth dessert, in case the eldest lady remembers me, I'll come back next time."
The mobile market is not all day, and when it was almost noon, Luo Xueyun shouted so loudly that his voice was hoarse, and he sold more than 200 catties.
After removing the management fee of one dime and erasing the zero, the actual charge is eight yuan, seven cents and six cents.
A large handful of small cabbage was tied with a straw rope and put it in front of Xin Gui, and by the way, the market management fee was returned.
"What are you doing here?" Xin Gui was surprised.
"Brother Gui, you help me out of the siege, and teach me to sell vegetables, I have nothing to thank for, so I will send some cabbage to your brother to take home to taste."
"It's not outside, it's a matter of the villagers taking a hand." Xin Gui resigned again and again.
"Brother Gui, the matter of a handful of dishes, you can really see the outside world if you refuse."
"Then, I'll be cheeky and take it, you come to the market again, and come to me, drink water or something, I'm close to it, I can bring it."
"Next time, definitely."
Luo Xueyun, who left with a basket, became melancholy.
He didn't think it through.
The sales volume of the vegetable market is limited, and it is estimated that it will take more than ten days to sell out the cabbage on one acre of land, and if you add the time consumed by setting off overnight and walking from Huanggang to Luopo, his cost will be greatly increased.
Even if he buys a truck and a tractor and reduces the travel time, he can't run to the city every day, the work in the field, the affairs at home, are difficult to separate, not to mention the wind and rain, and the road is muddy.
Maybe you can try to go in batches?
But Xin Gui also said that there is no serious market at all now, they are all spontaneous gathering transactions, and who are they sold in batches, restaurants, canteens?
Most of them are state-owned.
Luo Xueyun has a toothache when he thinks about it, it doesn't matter, it's not easy to get through.
But then again, this trip was not for nothing, at least it proved that his little cabbage was very marketable, and customers favored three-quarters of the price.
It's just that the next step is to be carefully considered.
