After the meal, Huang Daozhou slept for less than half an hour as usual, and after waking up, Huang Han dragged him to the street to buy things.

The crayfish in his early tens, Huang Han has already washed it with a brush with the help of Zhang Fangfen, and then Huang Han is ready to burn the thirteen-spiced crayfish by himself.

Of course, the condiments at home are not all that cannot be burned, so they must be purchased on the street.

Huang Daozhou doesn't know how to cook and never buys vegetables, because he hates bargaining with small traders, so he doesn't like to buy things on the street, and he doesn't want to go, saying that he wants to teach the little girl to read and write, and asks Zhang Fangfen to take Huang Han to North Street for a walk.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, there are not too many people buying things on North Street, and the people selling things are also in twos and threes.

Zhang Fangfen usually never picks when there are many people when she buys things, because there are many customers, it is impossible for small traders to have the patience to listen to your bargaining, and the business in the afternoon is not good, and the idle is also idle, and the price is often easier to pay back.

Huang Han pointed out seven or eight kinds of spices, red pepper noodles, and dried chili peppers to buy, but he didn't open his mouth, and listened to Zhang Fangfen bargain with others, and it cost a total of three cents to buy all the condiments.

I didn't expect it to be so expensive, Zhang Fangfen felt a little painful, and complained: "It's okay to burn a crayfish and put some soy sauce to cook it casually, and it is not worth spending so much unjust money." ”

Huang Han smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry about the three cents, I'll give it back to you later." Moreover, these condiments are not used all at once. ”

"What's the matter? You can buy four taels of meat for three cents. ”

"Mom, what is three cents, don't worry, I will be able to make money soon, and I will guarantee that I will be able to let my family eat meat every day in the future." ”

"And the fruit coaxed me to be happy, I don't want you to make a lot of money, as long as you get a hundred points in the exam. ”

"Your requirements are so low? I guess I will be able to know the results of the midterm exam in two or three days, and I think a score of 100 in math should be quite confident. ”

"You can only count when you get it, not to mention that it's early and empty in the end. ”

"Mom, there are a few egg sellers sitting there, let's go and see. ”

"I don't look at it, I only have a few cents left on me, not enough to buy eggs. ”

"I don't need you to spend money, I've got it here. Saying that, Huang Han squatted on the edge of one of the big baskets and watched, at this time, there were no foreign eggs at all, they were all native eggs, and they were not big.

"Boss, how much is your egg a pound. Huang Han opened his mouth, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was happy to sell eggs.

That was because Huang Han was accustomed to the sayings of later generations, and he didn't realize that no one called the small trader boss these days, and the boss was a criminal capitalist who should be knocked to the ground and stepped on it again.

In front of this kind of hawker, the customer is superior, Huang Han should shout: "Selling eggs, how can eggs be sold?"

If you go to a collective or state-run store to buy something, the customer will be a lot shorter, and they will say with a smile: "Comrade, please ask the accountant, may I ask the master...... What's the price of so-and-so?"

The peddler said: "They are all born by their own old hens, and they are sold cheaply." ”

"Bullying me as a child? You are also a peddler, and you don't have a few chickens at home. Don't talk nonsense, tell an honest price. ”

Yo! Although this kid's clothes are torn, he is very powerful! The peddler thought to himself, and said, "Why don't you give me two cents and seven?"

"Forget it, you're not sincere in doing this business. Huang Han stood up and was about to leave.

"Kid, are you here to tease me?

Zhang Fangfen was a little amused when she saw Huang Han negotiating the price with others in a decent manner, and pulled Huang Han over and said, "Let's go!"

In fact, in this year, the business basically does not report false prices, and it is impossible to buy it at the time of counter-offer and suffer a big loss, such as eggs, the price is relatively stable, and basically you can pay back one or two cents.

The peddler had been sitting for nearly an hour and no one cared about him, and he was not happy at this time, and said, "You kid has nothing to do, come to entertain people?"

Huang Han replied: "If you go to the countryside to collect eggs for two cents a catty, you will have a gross profit of 20% for two cents and four cents, which should be fine."

In this way, if you are willing to sell it for two cents and four cents, I will buy ten catties. ”

Zhang Fangfen hurriedly grabbed Huang Han and said, "Don't talk nonsense, how can I have so much money on me." ”

"Child, I don't think you want to buy it at all, you ask, which egg seller has sold it for less than two cents and five cents?"

Huang Han had already looked at the baskets of several egg sellers, and found that this person's eggs were uniform in size, and he wanted to buy them, so he said, "Don't talk nonsense, I weigh ten catties for two cents and four." ”

"No, no, no, at least give two cents and five, we also have losses, and selling two cents and four is equivalent to being busy in vain." ”

Seeing this kid like this, Huang Han realized that it was possible that the price of two cents and five cents in the North Street Market had basically reached the limit, but he was not at ease, and asked Zhang Fangfen: "Mom, how about the price of two cents and five cents for a pound of eggs?"

Zhang Fangfen looked at the vendor, this kind of hawker is actually not professional, it should be a rural person nearby, go to the countryside to collect eggs, and spend time on the street to sell to earn some errand money.

She often bargains and is quite judgmental, and says: "It's still a little expensive, if you buy ten catties at once, someone will definitely be willing to sell it." ”

The hawker didn't want to miss this business, and said to Zhang Fangfen: "If you really take two yuan and four cents, I will sell ten catties to you at a loss." ”

Zhang Fangfen was suddenly embarrassed, she really only had a few cents in her pocket.

Huang Han hurriedly took out three one-yuan bills and said, "The money is here, and if it is missing, you have to be careful, my uncle works at the police station not far ahead." ”

The hawker smiled when he saw Qian Mei, and said, "If you are missing two catties, you will directly break it." ”

Huang Han didn't care about the weight but the number, he deliberately counted the eggs when the vendor filled the basket, and found that there were a total of one hundred and two eggs in ten catties.

I calculated in my heart that the gross profit of selling a piece for five cents was doubled, and it was still possible to make two cents a piece without removing the cost.

In this era, the price of agricultural products was low, and industrial products were relatively expensive, of course, because of backwardness and low production capacity.

If you spend five cents less to buy a pound of eggs, not counting the value of tickets and food stamps, you can buy two pieces of tofu for five cents, you can buy a meat bun, and you can buy two big stove baked cakes for one penny.

Although Zhang Fangfen didn't know what her son was buying ten catties of eggs for, and she didn't know where he got the three yuan, she couldn't help but didn't ask when outsiders were present.

When she came home with the vegetable basket, she asked softly, "Huang Han, your three yuan is the money for selling soft-shelled turtles, right?"

"Yes!" Huang Han was not prepared to hide anything, and gave Zhang Fangfen the six cents for change.

Seeing that her son didn't need to open his mouth to hand over the rest of the money in his hand, Zhang Fangfen was very happy and said, "Why didn't your father mention it?"

He didn't know at all, and thought that the soft-shelled turtle had been replaced with a large cup of braised pork. ”

"Hmph! Your dad is confused enough, so why don't you save your money and buy so many eggs? ”

"Do business, make more money. ”

My mother sewed and mended for other people, which was actually a small business, so she didn't reject doing business at all, and asked, "What kind of business do you use eggs for?"

"It's very simple, you come and boil it into tea eggs, and I'll take it to the door of the cinema at night to sell it, two for a dime.

But I don't know if I can sell it, I'm going to try it tonight, if I can't sell it, it doesn't matter, it's a big deal to eat it myself, and then give a point to the neighbors on the left and right. ”

This is the truth, this year, I am afraid that no household in the entire Sanshui County has a refrigerator, and if it cannot be sold within two days, the tea eggs will be rancid, and if there are too many of them, I am afraid that they will not be able to eat it all.

Zhang Fangfen said distressedly: "If you can't sell it, you will lose two yuan and four cents in vain, why did you buy so many eggs without consulting me first." ”

"Mom, don't worry, you don't even dare to take the risk of two or three yuan when you learn to do business, will you still grow?

"It's also, it can't be sold, the eggs are still there, it's not a loss. I can also ask my neighbors to buy two cents, and we will give eight according to the price of eggs, and the capital should be able to be kept. ”

"Haha, Mom, you are more business-minded than Dad, don't worry, I won't be unlucky to make the first transaction and be yellow, I won't be able to sell one, as long as I sell half of it, the capital will be back." ”

"Also, it shouldn't be a loss, it's worth a try. ”
