As soon as these words came out, no one dared to stay. They all disappeared in a hurry.
"Miss An, tell me."
"Uncle Lin, my father left two months ago." An Jiuyue coughed uncomfortably and said.
"gone?"
Shopkeeper Lin's eyes flashed and he raised his eyebrows, not understanding the meaning of An Jiuyue's words at all.
"Okay, where has he gone? Or where can I live a more comfortable life than here in Sunset Town?" As he spoke, he looked at An Jiuyue again, his eyes seemed to be even more confused.
.
"Your father left, so why didn't you go with him?"
An Jiuyue: "!!!"
Can she go with him to that place? She doesn’t want to die so early!
"Ahem, um...Uncle Lin, I'm still young and have two children to take care of. I don't want to go there just yet." She said quietly.
After listening to An Jiuyue's words, shopkeeper Lin finally came to his senses. It turned out that this was what the little girl meant when she said she was leaving.
His face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and he coughed slightly in embarrassment.
"How could this happen? Although Lao Tutou is over sixty years old, he is still strong and strong. Why did he leave so quickly?"
"I met a tiger in the mountains. Although I escaped back, the injury was too serious and I couldn't survive." An Jiuyue sighed softly and said.
To say that her father was on the road, he was also suffering from hardship. If she could have traveled through time more than two months earlier, she might have been able to save him, but unfortunately, it was more than two months late.
"Oh, don't talk about this anymore, what are you doing here today?"
Seeing that the little girl was sad, the shopkeeper quickly changed the subject and asked.
"I hunted a hibernating snake on the mountain, so I brought it to Uncle Lin for a look. I don't know if Uncle Lin will take it." An Jiuyue didn't say anything else, but handed the bamboo basket on her back to
Put it down and lift off the big banana leaves covering it.
"Scare, hiss!"
Rao was shopkeeper Lin, and he was also frightened by the snake meat in the bamboo basket.
Even if the flesh of such a big snake had been skinned and cut into sections, he could still see how old the snake was. It was as thick as a man's calf.
"Miss An, you can do it. It's such a cold day and you managed to kill such a big snake."
"Uncle Lin, are you willing to accept it?" An Jiuyue asked with joy on her face.
"This is a good thing, of course you have to keep it." Shopkeeper Lin said.
This is a good product from the wild, and it has been treated so well and is so clean. Can we not accept it?
"Miss An, even if you are the daughter of an old roadhead, I won't give you any tricks. This snake, if you take it and sell it as a whole, it will be sixty cents per catty, but you have already done this.
Once you've peeled it off, I'll give you eighty cents per catty, what do you think?"
he asks.
"good."
An Jiuyue naturally responded happily.
Eighty cents per catty was much better than she had imagined. Such a large amount of snake meat would weigh almost thirty catties, which would be more than twenty taels of silver, enough for her to buy a lot of food.
I never thought that this prey could be sold so easily.
But she knew that only rare prey were easy to sell. If it were replaced by ordinary ones, a pheasant would only cost about forty or fifty copper coins at most, not too much.
When An Jiuyue responded, shopkeeper Lin called the boy over to weigh the snake meat.
It was similar to An Jiuyue's estimate. The snake meat was a little over thirty kilograms. Shopkeeper Liantou Lin also counted it for her, and the total was twenty-two, four hundred and thirty-eight yuan.
