Nongmen Xiaofu's Reborn Wife
Chapter 113 Harvesting Peanuts
The third grandfather said: "Snow fell heavily during the Lunar New Year, and the drought has subsided. Recently, the price of rice flour and cotton dropped, so why did soybeans even go up?" Gu Jinli saw this, and there was
If he didn't understand something, he said to the Taoist shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper, this farmer sells soybeans to your grain store. The most expensive price is five yuan and two kati. You want us five cents a catty, which is really sky-high prices, and the price increases aren't like that." She smiled, with
smile dismissively, and said: "Could you see us buying soybeans every day?, and there's only your grain store in this town, and you want to taste our meat?"
I definitely see them buying soybeans every day, guess tofu these are made from soybeans, and the business knows they are very good, so the price goes up. .
Gu Jinli's guess was right, The Taoist shopkeeper just guessed that knowing they were made of soybeans, and seeing that their business was booming, he wanted to raise the price so that he could make a lot of money.
The Gu family came to the grain store to buy soybeans every day, and they had to buy three hundred catties each time This was an additional two Wen per catties, and they had to buy three hundred catties, and he could earn an additional six hundred Wen a day, which was over half a tael.
But the Taoist shopkeeper was the one who saved face, he could raise the price, but if Gu Jinli exposed him, then he would feel uneasy.
The Taoist shopkeeper looked at Gu Jinli unfriendlyly, then turned to look at the third grandfather, and said, "Master Gu, you come to buy soybeans from us every day, you come to buy soybeans from us, and I can't fool anyone. The price of soybeans did go up If you don't believe me, you can go to the grain store in another city and ask."
The third grandfather's face was extremely ugly, and the meaning of the second part of Tao's sentence was already very clear, namely, relying on the only grain store in Qingfu City, he wanted to bite Them biting meat.
But if they don't buy soy here, where else can they buy it?
Seeing the third grandfather not speaking, the Taoist shopkeeper knew that he was in trouble, so he immediately shook his head and said to the third grandfather, "Master Gu, he is in trouble, it hasn't been a day or two since your family set up a stall in town. You should know that our family is the only one in this city. "Grain Shop, your family will open a stall tomorrow, if you can't buy beans, will your stall still be able to sell?
" Dao's face, which was not ugly before, was really ugly at this moment, even his raised beard was ugly, with an evil air.
The third grandfather was furious at the words of the Taoist Shopkeeper, which was clearly a threat.
Father Luo was also furious, pointing to the Taoist shopkeeper and saying: "Store guard, open the door for business, and pay attention long-term. If you do this, you'll ruin your reputation. "The Taoist shopkeeper is not afraid, the Gu family has just escaped
from hunger. What could he do if he oppressed and oppressed the victims?
Moreover, shopkeeper Zeng said that the Gu family offended the county magistrate, if he could make the Gu family suffer, the judge would be happy.
"Right now, soybeans at such a price. If you want to buy it, you can buy it, and if you don't buy it, you can go. " The Taoist shopkeeper knew that the Gu family wanted to make out, so he decided to eat it.
It was a pity that Gu Jinli replied with the sentence: "Save this soybean for moldy, we won't buy it!" "
Third grandpa, let's go." Gu Jinli walked out of the grain store first.
The third grandfather and the others saw that he had already spoken, so they had no choice but to follow him and leave.
When the group returned to the stall tofu, Mrs. Chu saw their expressions were not good, and he did not return with soybeans, so he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Where's kedelai? Why don't you buy it?" Father Luo said, "People from the Taoist shopkeeper's grain store raised the price of soybeans to five renminbi per catty, obviously trying to deceive us, so we didn't buy them
."
shopkeeper Tao is crazy?" Madam Chu was surprised. Soy is the most common thing. Yes, it can be planted anywhere. And because it is rough and difficult to cook, the price is always low, the most expensive is only four Wen per catties, five Wen per catties of soybeans is very expensive.
Now it was cold, they made tofu one day before, but the tofu at home was only enough to sell for one day, and it would be gone when the ludes sold tomorrow.
Gu Jinli said: "Let's go home and collect the beans. These soybeans are coarse grains that are available in every household. We collected it for three cents. There must be a lot we want to sell. "He doesn't believe that. No grain shop Taoist Shopkeeper
, he still can't buy it. To soy?
The third grandfather nodded: "This is how, let's go, let's go home and collect the beans."
Before leaving, Gu Jinli yelled into the market: "Uncle and aunt, tavern know Gu we collect soybeans, three cents per catties, If you have soybeans, you can bring them tomorrow, you can bring them tomorrow, and we'll gather as many as you want."
There were many farmers selling agricultural produce in the markets where they set up stalls. Hearing this, they asked one after another: "Little girl of the Gu family, are you really happy?" Do you want to collect soybeans? Three Wen per catty?"
Gu Jinli nodded: "Right, three Wen per catty, our Gu family stall is here, if you sell it, you can bring it tomorrow.” An
the soybean seller man hurriedly said: “Don't forget tomorrow, I have two soybean sacks here, which weigh 60 catties. If you pay three Wen per catties, I'll sell them to you. Soybeans now." The woman in her family gave birth to a son, but her family was poor and had none
money to buy eggs, I want to sell soybeans at home, buy a basket of eggs and go back to the mother. But the price the grain shop offered was too cheap, only three Wen for two catties, he was reluctant to sell them, so he picked them up here, hoping to get a good price. Unexpectedly, this good price actually came.
The man brought the soybeans to Gu's tofu stall, untied the sack, and showed them the soybeans inside: "Everything is good beans, dried in the sun, and not moldy." Father Luo took out two handfuls of soybeans and looked at him.
Look, put a little more in your mouth and break it into pieces. After tasting the taste, you said to the third grandfather: "Sanbo, the soybeans are good, let's buy." The third grandfather also looked at the two pockets
soy and nod. He said: "Okay, let's buy."
Sixty catties of soybeans, three Wen per catty, and the third grandfather counted one hundred and eighty large coins for him.
The man took the money, put it carefully into the wallet, and thanked the third grandfather with a smile: "Thank you, old man, you have helped my family a lot." Father Luo poured the two soybean sacks into the basket, instead,
and returning the sack to the old man, the man took the bag and left.
After this business was over, everyone around knew that they were actually collecting soybeans, and they all said, "Master Gu, I also have soybeans, too, and I'll bring it to you tomorrow." "Master Gu, I also have soybeans, and I will bring them to you tomorrow.
" Three Wen per cat."
The third grandfather said: "Okay, three Wen per catty, don't worry, I won't lower your price."
After a while, the group left the city and walked towards Dafeng Village.
They walked very slowly today Every time they passed a village, Father Luo and Madam Chu went to the village to talk about harvesting soybeans.
When they returned to Dafeng Village, they had gathered 400 catties of soybeans, and the dozen villages they passed by all knew that their Gu family wanted to collect soybeans.
