Song Qiu originally thought that he would not buy it, but there was an unexpected surprise. Knowing that this was taking care of her business, she was very grateful and quickly weighed the things with a scale.
The amount of mountain mushrooms weighed definitely more than five kilograms, and the amount of loofah weighed enough, not to mention the two pieces in pieces.
"Thanks to your patronage, I have weighed everything you asked for, a total of twenty-six cents."
Fan Jin quickly took out the coins and couldn't help but add, "Little girl, if you find anything strange, be sure to keep an eye out for me."
"Okay!" Song Qiu naturally agreed.
After seeing Fan Jin off, the stall became deserted.
It must have been almost two quarters of an hour before someone walked up to the stall. This one bought two kilograms of peppers, the other bought two kilograms of loofah, two kilograms of eggplants...
The vegetables I brought were almost sold out.
Song Qiu looked at the mountain mushrooms that were still there, sighed slightly, stood up and stamped his feet, loosening them quickly, and then continued to squat down to guard.
After a while, the sun also came out of the sky.
A woman carrying a basket hurriedly walked to the stall, looked at it and said, "Your mushrooms are a bit stale. How do you sell them?"
When Song Qiu heard her saying that the mushrooms were not fresh, he took a quick look at them. The mushrooms she had placed by the water tank yesterday were all intact and beautiful. They were not fresh yet.
Why is it not fresh after being basked in the sun?
However, those who come here are guests, so Song Qiu still said in a good temper: "Auntie, my mountain mushrooms are very fresh. Look at how beautiful each one is. It's still three cents a pound, Auntie, how much do you want?"
The woman frowned and said, "Three cents per catty? Over there, Zhangji's grocery store sells three cents per catty. I still don't like it. Your penny per catty is about the same. If you pay one penny per catty,
I’ll just buy two kilograms.”
Zhang Ji’s grocery store sells two pounds for three pennies?
Song Qiu thought that the pear blossoms were not easy to sell, and there were still a lot of baskets left in the previous two baskets. It was impossible to say that it would be possible to charge such a price today.
But it was a penny and a pound, so it was better to give it away for free. She would rather carry it back and dry it out in the winter.
"One penny per catty is not enough. Three cents per catty is the same price. If Auntie doesn't buy it sincerely, she might as well forget it."
When the woman heard this, she curled her lips and said, "Why do you, a little girl, do this kind of business? Everyone is easy to talk and negotiate when doing business. Your fixed price is dead, so you won't bargain with others anymore. Forget it, I'll still do it."
Buy it elsewhere."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Song Qiu was not upset, so he continued to wait.
If she really can't sell it, then she can carry it home. Anyway, she has to wait for Uncle Wujin's ox cart, which is convenient.
Sure enough, by the end of the morning market, only five kilograms of mountain mushrooms had been sold, leaving eleven or two kilograms left. Fortunately, all the vegetables we brought were sold out.
Song Qiu touched his hungry belly and guessed that it was already almost ten o'clock and the sun was shining brightly. It seemed that there was no point in keeping it up any longer. Don't starve yourself. You have managed to maintain your body.
Then he put the empty basket into his backpack, just in time to block the sun that was drying the mushrooms. He held the scale beam in one hand and headed outside the market. He returned the wooden sign and then crossed the bridge to the other side, planning to eat a bowl of wontons or something.
Fill your stomach first.
When we arrived at the snack street, the street market that had just passed the morning meal was still quite lively, and there were also people eating at the stalls in twos and threes.
Plain noodles are also two cents, but Song Qiu still loves meat, so he simply ordered a bowl of wontons for three cents.
While waiting for the wontons to arrive, Song Qiu calculated that from today's trip, apart from the stall fee and the fare, as well as the three cents of wonton money, he only earned more than twenty cents, which was not as good as the previous trip to the big market.
Woolen cloth.
It's a coincidence that he ran so far.
Song Qiu shook his head. He no longer planned to sell mountain mushrooms in the town. He had to find another way to make a living first.
While she was eating wontons, she couldn't help but look around. When she had no ideas in her mind, if she looked around more, inspiration would suddenly burst out.
There are all kinds of stalls in the snack street, and they are all well-equipped. It is not unusual to sell steamed buns, pancakes, and noodles.
What is strange is the stall selling drinking water during this season.
Like the last time she and Lihua came shopping, they had already tasted the iced sour plum soup. It cost a penny in a bamboo tube, so it was quite icey.
Song Qiu recalled that in his previous life, when he was browsing on his mobile phone for some information, he had found out that ice had been around since the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, there were many vendors selling ice drinks in the streets and markets.
I don’t know what was invented in this dynasty, but looking at the stall selling iced sour plum soup, I guess there are ice cubes in circulation, and it’s probably not that expensive, otherwise the sour plum soup costs a penny in a bamboo tube.
In the past, Song Qiulai was a young girl in town, and in her memory, she had no memory of ice cubes or not.
Song Qiu rolled his eyes, finished eating the wontons, gave the money and went to the sour plum soup stall.
I ordered a bamboo tube of sour plum soup, and while drinking it, I chatted with the stall owner in front of the stall.
"Uncle, I see that your sour plum soup is ice cold. Drinking it is really antipyretic. It is much cooler than the cold water from my pressure well!"
The stall was not busy, but when the stall owner saw a young girl named Song Qiu taking care of the business, he didn't take precautions and started chatting, "No! I'm using ice cubes, which is naturally cooler than well water!"
"Ice? What is that?" Song Qiu's eyes widened in surprise.
The stall owner laughed when he heard this, "You little girl, is this your first time in town? You don't even know this. This ice drink has been popular in our county for a long time. Our Panshi Town is a big town. These two
The New Year is gradually getting popular, and there is an ice shop next to the town hall, which starts selling ice cubes in the summer!"
When Song Qiu heard that there were indeed ice cubes for sale, she couldn't help but feel happy. Some ideas had already taken shape. She lowered her eyes slightly and caught a glimpse of the wooden things placed on the end of the stall. She also had some ideas in her mind, but she didn't know anything about it.
I caught him and asked Duo Han, he smiled naively and left the stall.
It was still very early before Shenshi, so Song Qiu returned to the market and stored the basket in Zhang Ji's grocery store.
The mountain mushrooms in Zhang Ji's grocery store were sold a little cheaper today, but there weren't many left. Seeing that Song Qiu was still carrying so many mountain mushrooms, Zhang Digua kindly asked if he wanted to put them in the shop to help sell them.
.
Song Qiu thought that three pennies and two pounds was not worth it, so he declined.
After storing the backpack and waiting to pick it up later, Song Qiu went to Changxingfang where the town office was located.
Song Qiu had been to Changxingfang several times, and he was familiar with the roads, so he soon entered this market.
Along the way, we encountered several stalls selling ice drinks at the entrance of alleys and alleys. In addition to sour plum soup, Song Qiu saw that there were also mung bean soup, which was quite a variety.
Just after turning the corner and entering the long street, it was almost noon. There were only a few people on the street, and one could see far away. Song Qiu was looking at the location of the town office when Leng Buding walked up to him.
"We are selling gadgets! Bronze pigs, copper bulls, and copper rabbits. They have everything. They are beautiful and fun. Little girl, do you want to take a look?"
