The rich second generation was forced to start all over again [farming] vs 10
If you enter the city to sell agricultural goods, you will only receive one penny, if you are counted as a businessman, you must calculate according to the amount, and pay at least five wen, what is all up to the city guard.
There is only one main street in Guanyang County, the middle is the county government, the east sells all kinds of groceries, there are many small shops, the west is more upscale, all are big shops, the same is a restaurant, a teahouse, an inn, the west is generally two stories high, with a private room. Pawnshops, bookstores, shops selling rouge and gouache, pharmacies, and silk shops are all on the west side, while butcher shops, noodle shops, grain and oil shops, steamed bun shops, word and fortune tellers, and grocery stores are all on the east side.
Itinerant vegetable stalls, on the easternmost side of East Street.
The purchase of mansions and the purchase of vegetables by civilians are all here, and those who carry baskets and carts early in the morning crowd the trail.
Find a fixed stall here to sell vegetables, you also have to pay, according to the area, the small stall is three, the big stall is five, come early and occupy it early, if you want to fix the best stall in the west, pay the money monthly.
Lu Xu thought about it, first handed over the three articles for trial sale, and he found a middle to sell fruits.
In this season, only late-ripening cherries, early-ripening peaches, apricots and mulberries, and some small wild fruits that he is not famous for, are not cheap.
If you can afford to buy fruit, eighty percent will not dislike the price of his snails.
Sure enough, after a while, someone came to purchase, and when he saw that people had finished picking the fruit and paying for it, he began to shout and sell snails, "Secret snails, salty, spicy and fresh, delicious to eat, side dishes and wine, suitable for all ages, not delicious and not for moneyββ"
But as soon as others asked the price, they looked at the snails, and most of them left.
Lu Xu was helpless.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for someone to ask.
"How do you sell this snail?" A middle-aged man with his arm behind his back and a small servant shopping for vegetables came over and asked, he was wearing silk clothes, he was rich, and he was also taking a small servant, and his family was very good at first glance.
Lu Xu handed over a pocket: "Ten wen and one pocket, taste it first and then buy it, it doesn't cost money if it's not delicious." β
The other party pinched one, and when it was gone, he would eat it when he saw it. After a while, he pinched his beard and commented: "People often say Qingming snails, stuff fat geese, although your snail season is late, the taste is not bad." β
Lu Xu: "......"
I didn't expect there to be ready-made advertising words!
He nodded in agreement, and then asked, "What you're talking about, how many are you coming?" β
The middle-aged man casually said, "Let's have ten packs." β
Lu Xu happily responded, and carefully put the snails into the other party's basket.
When the people left, he scratched his head, looked at the fruit in the stall next to him, and suddenly smiled. If his parents see him being so flattering for a few pennies, and he is reluctant to buy peaches to eat after earning money, I don't know how he will feel.
Lu Xu sold until noon, selling a total of more than 30 snails, the morning stall gradually dispersed, he didn't stay long, and carried the basket upside down to his chest, and began to sell along the street.
He packed more than 200 snails, how can this work?
Lu Xu summed up the problems of the morning, most of the people who bought vegetables were women, but most of the people who bought his snails were men, and the women lived a meticulous life, and they could buy a fat fish for 20 yuan.
Lu Xu took a rough stroll through the east and west streets and chose the market-
Wine shops, gambling houses.
He was cheeky and stood by the door of the wine shop, and when he saw who came to buy wine, he asked, "Would you like to order some snacks, Tianluo with wine, the wine is more fragrant." β
The shopkeeper looked here frequently, and Lu Xu Shi Ran said: "The wine is not intoxicating, and the snails are salty and spicy, you can drink more than two taels after eating." β
Shopkeeper: "......"
The shopkeeper saw that it didn't affect the business, and he didn't drive him out, Lu Xu relied on his cheekiness, and he relied on the door of the wine store to sell more than 40 copies. Later, some people bought it home and drank it, and found that the snails were good to eat as a side dish, and some repeat customers came to buy more than ten servings.
Lu Xu sent a copy to the shopkeeper before leaving, thanked him and left.
There were more than 100 copies left, and Lu Xu went straight to the gambling house.
The gamblers ate late, and the noon was almost over, so they didn't go far, but ate at a nearby shop to fill their stomachs and continue gambling. There are also many snack shops near the gambling house.
He chose the best noodle restaurant in the business and sat down, ordered a bowl of somen noodles, asked the guy for an empty plate, poured the snails into it, and began to direct and act by himself, exaggerating the snails, taking a bite, and sighing, "It's so spicy!" It smells so good! β
provoked the noodle shop guy to get rid of him.
But the exaggeration is a little exaggerated, and the effect is not bad, especially if you win the money, you are in a good mood, you are happy to see everything, and you are willing to tease him, "What kind of kid to eat?" β
Lu Xu: "My family makes snails. β
When everyone heard this, they were all happy, "You shouted incense in other people's stores for the snails you made, why don't you go home to eat them?" β
Lu Xu began to make up nonsense on the spot: "I can't afford to eat at home!" You don't know, making this snail costs oil, salt and sauce, but also pours wine and spices, boils a pot of snails and puts three bowls of ingredients, if you don't put enough, it will not be fragrant, and if you put enough materials, you have to burn it over high heat and stew it over low heat, and wait for a while, and so the ingredients will melt into juice and seep into the snail...... This tastes. β
He sighed unsatisfactorily, and took another one, "Hey! As far as my mother is concerned, don't talk about snails, the soles of stewed shoes are fragrant! β
Anyway, he has never been so shameless in his life, and he went out to play hard, "My mother easily doesn't cook a pot, she has to add Ding Qingxi to the family, and the old man only cooks it on his birthday, if I didn't have an idea to say that I want to sell it, where would she be willing to give it to me!" β
Others were happy, "Is it that delicious?" β
Lu Xu: "Hey, believe it or not. β
He picked up the noodles, ate two bites, and began to eat the snails again.
The more he refused, the more curious some people became, "Boy, give me a taste of whether it's delicious or not, I'll buy yours if it's delicious." β
Lu Xu looked stingy, "If you don't give it, I'll sell it for money." β
"How much is it, look at your stinginess, don't you still have it in the basket?" After winning the money, he came over curiously and lifted the lid of his cloth to see.
"Shiwen, buy first and taste later."
"How expensive should I be?" He threw the money to Lu Xu, and didn't count much, "Bring me a pack, if it's not delicious, be careful I'll beat you." β
Lu Xu pulled the money into his hand, "You taste it, I will return the money to you if it is not delicious, Twelve Wen, I will choose a big bag for you." β
The man chose the biggest snail from his basket and looked like Lu Xu, "Ahem, it's a little spicy, it tastes really good." β
Lu Xu: "How can I lie to you, just now there was a staff member who bought ten packs, people said, Qingming snail stuffed fat goose, although my snail is not as good as Qingming snail, but it tastes good and tastes good, the more you eat, the better it is!" β
A few people came over to taste it, and someone said, "It's good to drink." β
Lu Xu: "No, I just sold it at the door of the wine store, and many people bought it and came back to buy it." β
At this time, he was generous, and took the bag on the table and sent it to the table.
The diners of the entire noodle restaurant were aroused by his curiosity, no one would be disgusted with eating this snail at this time, it was not worth it, some people were spicy, and some people tasted it and thought it was good, so they immediately asked Lu Xu to take two packs.
Lu Xu happily sold snails, and the leftover samples were sent to the bun shop and steamed cake shop next door, and when he saw that everyone who wanted to buy them had bought them, he asked the eldest brother who won the money, "This snail women and children also love to eat, don't you bring a pack to your daughter-in-law and children?" β
Who remembers the wife and children who came out to gamble? The other party was stunned by the question.
"Do you have to bring them when you come out to play?" The person next to him had a posture of "I'm a big man, I'm not afraid of my wife".
Lu Xu immediately said: "That's not what you say, isn't it okay for a daughter-in-law and child in the family to miss their husband and son every day, bring some small things back, so that the family also knows that you take care of the family, think about them, and coax the whole family to be happy?" I go home from the field and fold a flower for my sister and she will be happy all night. β
They thought about it, anyway, it's not expensive, this thing hasn't been eaten elsewhere, and it's fresh to take home.
Someone bought it, and those who love face are not afraid of losing face, and they also buy one or two packs with the trend, Lu Xu spent money to buy a stack of oiled paper from the bun shop, and gave them one by one to wrap them firmly. After a while, more than 100 copies of Lu Xu's snails were sold out.
After the snails were sold, Lu Xu and the gamblers exchanged for loose silver, he smiled and said beautiful things for a while, and when the gamblers left, he breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the noodles that were already cold, snorted and drank the soup with noodles.
After settling the account, Lu Xu saw that the snails fell out at the bottom of the basket, and took the reed leaves and sent the noodle money to the noodle shop owner together, "Uncle, I can't take your place today, the remaining points are clean, you can taste it." β
The boss is big and strong, but his temper is very good, he faces a group of gamblers every day, and he can't do it with a bad temper, he wiped his hands and took it, and said with a smile: "You can really say." β
At noon, just listening to him, his mouth did not rest.
Lu Xu sneered.
God knows, in the past, some of the girls in their school still called him the Prince of Melancholy! Hey, life makes people get old......
Lu Xu asked, "Uncle, I want to buy some snacks for my younger brothers and sisters, do you know which shop is really delicious?" β
The owner of the noodle shop thought he was pure nonsense, but he didn't expect to be really worried about his home, "You continue to walk west along the street, there is a Liu Ji groceries, that is, the one with a big blue-edged banner, his goods are all affordable, buy pastries on West Street, as soon as he passes the sixth store of Yamen, Su Ji Xiang Cake, ask the guy if there is any broken dim sum to sell, and the taste of the whole piece, half cheaper." β
"Okay, I remember, Liu Ji groceries, Su Ji fragrant cakes."
"Yes, yes, I can't find it, ask someone on the side of the road."
Lu Xu thanked him and went to buy candy for Layue with an empty basket on his back.
The author has something to say:
Lu Xu: I, self-directed and self-acting, and I am a nursery~!
Chapter 11: Bookstore
Lu Xu went to Liu Ji groceries first, and there were two women buying needlework inside, so Lu Xu stood a little farther away to see what the grocery store was selling.
There are four common types of sugar, whole whitish, scattered whitish, whole yellowish, and scattered yellowish. They only sell yellowish ones in the town, go to relatives to buy whole pieces during the New Year's holidays, eat and buy loose pieces by themselves, and Yan Junqi buys loose sugar for Wenzhen.
The grocery store also has a candy cube that looks like rock candy, dyed with color, I don't know if it's mixed with fruit juice, it's considered fruit candy?
In addition, soy sauce and vinegar tea is also available here, which is also divided into several grades, and there is no price.
Lu Xu also sold some local specialties, Lu Xu novelly saw dried kelp, seaweed, fungus, dried shiitake mushrooms, lotus seeds, wolfberries, red dates, and even longan in the grocery store!
There are also eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs.
It's quite complete!
In addition, there are all kinds of miscellaneous grains, daily necessities and needlework. Salt has to be bought at government-run salt shops, and there are special grain shops for staple grains.
The grocery store has pots and pans, fans, brooms, candles, oil lamps, lanterns, and paintings. There are also small benches stacked in the corner.
It can be said that the sparrow is small, and it has all the organs!
The two women picked the line and complained to the shopkeeper, "Why has the price increased again in the past few days?" β
Shopkeeper: "You exchange the grain, or the original price." β
The two women muttered, "The food is expensive!" β
Shopkeeper: "No, it's the same every day." Or you can take the silver, or the original price. β
"Where is the silver to buy a needle and thread!"
They picked up the needlework and thread, paid for it, and went away not very happy.
Prices rose, coins depreciated, and the official set of exchanging a tael of silver for a thousand wen, but a thousand wen could not be exchanged for a tael of silver at all. Lu Xu exchanged broken silver with gamblers in the noodle restaurant, which was equivalent to 1,200 wen to exchange for one tael of silver, but he felt distressed.
But if you don't change it, it's too heavy. Maybe you can leave it there and get 1,300 wen in a few days to exchange it for one or two pieces of silver.
Lu Xu took the opportunity to ask, "How much can a tael of silver be exchanged for now?" β
The shopkeeper shook his head, "I don't know, I have to get one thousand three." β
Gotcha, he's earned!
