058.a

The next day, after breakfast, Lin Yi began to think about digging a cellar, owning the whole shade of the hill, anywhere, but to choose a suitable location.

Lin Yi looked around, stopped for a while in the middle of the hollow, and then turned elsewhere, hesitating in his heart, not that he didn't think there was a good location, but if the location of the cellar was too far away from the thatched house, he was also worried that the sweet potatoes would be stolen by the thieves. Once I was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, the thief I encountered at the beginning of Dai Yan, so that the little couple in the honeymoon could only foam at each other, and almost starved to death, how could there be no shadow in my heart.

Going around and around, I still returned to the vicinity of the thatched house, and the reason why I didn't consider digging nearby at first was because I was worried that my son often ran around, in case he accidentally fell in. Lin Yi is thoughtful and thoughtful, but he is a little worried, but no wonder, who knows if his son is a demon?

Lin Yi pondered for a long time, and finally decided to dig the cellar to the left of the storage room, and prepared to build a shed after digging. The location was determined, and the excavation was carried out......

"Brother Lin, you're busy......" When the sun rose in mid-air, Feng Li appeared with a burden.

"Oh... Brother Feng, I'm going to sell pears again..."Lin Yi turned his head and echoed.

"I didn't sell pears today..."Feng Li walked over briskly, obviously carrying a burden that didn't weigh much, and asked with a smile on his face, "... Do you sell those melons of yours?"

"Brother Feng wants to buy my melon?" Lin Yi asked casually.

"With this thought... It depends on whether Brother Lin sells it or not..."Feng Li's smile couldn't hide his ardent expectation.

"Oh..."Lin Yi understood, Feng Li, who came over rashly, was not joking, so he stopped what he was doing, "... If you really want to buy it, of course you sell it, but my family of three can't eat so much. ”

"Okay, what price?" Feng Li asked steadily, buying is to sell, and of course you have to bargain before selling. Yesterday with half a load of melons, all the way to the town nervously, but unexpectedly put down the burden, immediately there were customers to come, the big winter melon bought, the successive customers will gourd gourd, big pumpkin snapped up, Feng Li all the way to the hard work to be released, feel naturally very happy, the profit is also considerable, casually sell some pears, then happily take the burden home. I had a good dream at night, but today I didn't bother to sell pears, so I came directly to Lin Yi and wanted to sell some melons.

"The price... Why don't you give a price..."Lin Yi pondered for a moment and smiled slightly. The price of all kinds of melons, Lin Yi naturally has a bottom in his heart, but people want to sell them, but the price of the batch is not very clear, and it is difficult to say how much is appropriate.

Feng Li did not shirk it, and estimated that he gave a price to the gourd, winter melon, and pumpkin, which is not much different, the gourd gourd is slightly more expensive than the winter melon, and the winter melon is also a little more expensive than the pumpkin. Lin Yi felt that it was reasonable, so he readily agreed, and then opened the storage room next to him.

"I still have some dates in the basket, give them to you......"

Feng Li put the burden away, took out a few handfuls of dates from the basket with both hands, and put them in a basket in the storage room. Lin Yi was not polite, he picked up a jujube and put it in his mouth, and when he bit into it, it felt exceptionally crisp and the taste was very sweet.

"It's... Be... Miscellaneous... What are the dates?" Lin Yi's voice picked up another one casually, and I saw that this date looked nothing special.

"It's the common jujube, I grew it myself, I just knocked it down from the tree early in the morning, it is the last fresh jujube, there are no more on the tree, and it is especially sweet because it is ripe. Feng Li said casually, casually carrying the melon and putting it into the basket, and then said, "The red circle of jujube on the fifteenth day of July, the jujube rod on the fifteenth day of August, where will there be many in September, just a little bit when it is gone, I will come here to buy your melons this time, and bring some for you to taste by the way." ”

"Brother Feng is too polite, but it's disrespectful, then I'll accept it! Thank you. Lin Yi guessed that the other party was afraid that he would not sell melons in case, so he specially brought some dates over, which was indeed very intentional, in short, it was not a bad thing. Seeing that there is no green skin on the surface of these bezoars, all of them are red and purple, and they are really ripe, which is very different from the appearance of cyan storage red, and the stored jujubes will slowly become all red, but they will also slowly become a little wilted, but they are not the same when they are red on the tree, the texture is hard to the touch, and the bite is particularly crisp and very refreshing, Lin Yi couldn't help asking: "The dates are more delicious in September, why are they beaten in August?"...,

"Raw melons, pears and dates, whoever sees them bites. Feng Li blurted out, another common saying, and then said: "If you don't fight in August, there won't be much left in September, the neighbors and villagers in the past, when they saw that the dates on the tree were red, they threw a stone on them, and the dates fell and picked them up and ate them, who would blame others for a few dates?"

"Hey, hey... It's really hard to blame..."Of course, Lin Yi also understands these people's sophistication.

"Not only is it hard to say, but they are all acquaintances, and when you see it, you have to accompany them with a smile and invite others to eat at will! In this case, starting in July, if you don't fight in August, you won't even be able to catch a few of yourself in September. Feng Li said with a smile.

"It's a pity, people who like to eat dates rarely eat such delicious dates, but I have enjoyed the blessing of the mouth today, and I have the blessing of the eldest brother!" Lin Yi teased.

"I'm also blessed by Brother Torin, so that I can buy such a good-selling melon. Feng Li Xinkou answered, his hands were not idle, he weighed the two winter melons, and then said: "One forty-seven catties and four taels, one fifty-two catties and six taels, adding up to a full hundred catties, ten gourds and gourds for a total of twenty-three catties and three taels, and two pumpkins for a total of thirty-nine catties and five taels......"

"Two winter melons are so heavy?" Lin Yi was a little surprised.

"Your melon, you don't know it's so heavy?" Feng Li asked in surprise.

"I haven't weighed..."

"This is not the biggest! I don't know how much the largest winter melon weighs, it is estimated to be more than seventy catties..." Maybe that big pumpkin is heavier, hehe......"

"Weigh it and see..."Lin Yi was said to be interested, although he was excited when he picked it, he carried it into the storage room one by one on his shoulder, but he just felt that it was enough, but he didn't expect to weigh it.

"Then call it ......"

Suddenly, the two walked into the storage room. Lin Yi tied the largest winter melon with a rope, Feng Li held the flat pole, and the two of them carried the scale together, and sure enough, it was more than seventy catties, seventy-two catties. Immediately, Lin Yi tied up the largest pumpkin again, and the two of them carried it and weighed it, and it was really heavier than the big winter melon, weighing seventy-six catties.

Although the largest is a pumpkin, the winter melon as a whole is larger than the pumpkin, the smallest pumpkin is more than ten catties, the smallest winter melon has more than 20 catties, and there are thirteen winter melons above fifty catties, only six pumpkins above fifty catties, most of them are in thirty or forty catties, and there are dozens of winter melons and pumpkins.

"I never thought it would be so heavy..."Lin Yi sneered, happy in his heart.

"My burden, a total of one hundred and sixty-two pounds and eight taels, although I can pick it up, but I can't pick it that far..." Subtract twenty-one catties of a pumpkin, and subtract six gourds and fourteen catties and two taels, which is one hundred and twenty-seven catties and six taels, which is a little heavier, and it should be able to bear it......"

Listening to Feng Li's clear calculation of catties and catties in his mouth, Lin Yi didn't say much, and followed the mental arithmetic with great interest, and checked these numbers, but they were not bad. Feng Li immediately paid the money, without any further delay, carrying a load of more than 100 catties of melons, and went straight away.

"Phil... Yao'er, there are delicious dates..."

Lin Yi shouted, picked up the hoe, and continued to dig the cellar.
