"You can sell it for 66 yuan per catty. As a boss, you can keep a long-term view on the price of crabs!" Yunwei saw Xiaolu talking and leaned closer to the uncle. After chattering, she saw that
The uncle's serious face immediately smiled in surprise and nodded repeatedly.
"Are you telling the truth? You're not lying to me, are you?" The uncle still couldn't believe it and asked doubtfully.
"Of course it's true. Do I look like someone who can lie?" Xiaolu said with a very serious and sincere look.
"Then... okay, 66 yuan per catty, just 66 yuan per catty. You have to keep your word!" The uncle hesitated and finally agreed.
"Well, thank you, uncle." Xiaolu smiled at the uncle and then lowered her head to pick the crabs.
Yunwei admired Xiaolu's strong bargaining ability. As she was surprised by her bargaining, Yunwei felt her stomach discomfort and nausea improved a lot. She saw Xiaolu carrying crabs and cabbage towards the seller of squid.
Walk to the stall.
"Uncle, how much does this squid cost per pound?" Xiaolu asked, pointing to the squid covered with ice.
"Twelve yuan per catty!" The uncle said the price directly without saying a word, as if the price would never be low.
"It's so expensive. The squid doesn't look very fresh. It's still covered in ice. It must have been frozen in the freezer for several days. It costs 12 yuan per catty."
"Miss, I think you don't understand the situation. It's a fish ban now. The seafood sold now is all caught some time ago and kept in the freezer. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't even be able to buy squid roe.
, 12 yuan per catty is already extremely cheap.”
"Is it really not even a dollar cheaper?" Xiaolu asked unwilling to give up.
"It really can't get any cheaper!" was the uncle's decisive answer.
"Then... okay, please help me weigh this one." Xiaolu pointed to a certain item in the basket and said hesitantly.
The uncle grabbed the squid that Xiaolu pointed to, put it on the scale, and said to her: "The total is 16 yuan and 8 cents."
"Oh, you still have change. It's so troublesome to find change. Just 15 yuan!" Xiaolu said as she took out 15 yuan and placed it in front of the dumbfounded uncle who was holding the squid.
Just as the uncle was wondering whether he was the stall owner or she was the stall owner's pawn, Xiaolu had already picked up a bag on the stall, put the squid in it, smiled at him and said: "Uncle, I'm leaving, next time
Will definitely visit again.”
When he opened his mouth to say something, he saw that she was already walking to another stall carrying the squid.
Yunwei stared at Xiaolu's figure walking among the vendors without blinking, and was completely impressed by her bargaining methods that were higher and higher and never repeated.
Carrying the vegetables in both hands, she walked towards Yunwei with a smile on her face, and said with a smile: "The vegetables are bought, let's go home."
Yunwei and Xiaolu said while walking: "I have seen your bargaining skills, but you are not very good at bargaining with those aunts who sell side dishes, right? They are doing a small business, and they get up early every day and work late at night.
It’s not easy to sell vegetables and make some money for the family.”
"Yunwei, let me tell you that as the saying goes, food markets are like shopping malls. If they raise the price of vegetables, we must safeguard our own interests and lower the price of vegetables. Otherwise, we will buy whatever vegetables they say at any price without any bargaining.
If so, the price of vegetables will get higher and higher, and people's greed will have no limits..."
Xiaolu took a breath and continued: "So, don't be overly kind and be too kind, otherwise, you will be the one who suffers."
"Oh!" Yunwei responded dully, neither denying nor approving.
In her heart, she still feels that it is better for people to think more about others, because everyone has a heart, and the other party is not a hard-hearted person for your dedication. They will always see it and be moved. Maybe your consideration for her will
, but it will make her feel touched. Next time you go to her place to buy groceries, they will be embarrassed to say that they sold the groceries to you at a high price.
Knowing that no matter what she said to Xiaolu, she would refute her, Yunwei said nothing and followed her out of the market.
As she walked, she suddenly remembered something and asked Xiaolu in confusion: "Xiaolu, what did you just say to the uncle selling crabs? He agreed to sell them to you for 66 yuan.
Already?"
"Hey, I told the uncle that my sister has found a very rich boss and is getting married next Wednesday. There will definitely be a grand wedding banquet. When the time comes, I will come to you to buy a lot of
Anyway, my brother-in-law is very rich. If you give me another 88 yuan per catty, you will definitely make a lot of money... If I say this, the uncle will be happy to sell me crabs for 66 yuan per catty.
Here you go."
Yunwei was a little stunned that Xiaolu had even thought of this method and implemented it. After she realized what she was doing, she took her wrist and said worriedly: "It's not very kind of you to deceive him like this!"
"No matter how kind or not, it's all about being able to cut off a penny at the market, okay?" Xiaolu said confidently, without any feeling of guilt at all. In her faith, she has always believed in such a rule.
: If you don’t take care of yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. In order to survive, she can only shame others.
Although Yunwei was a little frustrated with Xiaolu's appearance of being very confident after deceiving others.
But then I thought about it, if Xiaolu didn't do that, it wouldn't be her. She has always been the kind of person who tries her best to protect her own interests without harming others. That's because of her character, and she can't
Say whatever you want, after all, everyone's personality is different.
"But, have you ever thought about what you would do if you went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and met that uncle but did not fulfill his promise to him and he came to settle a score with you? Your home is so close to this vegetable market.
There's no way you won't come here to buy groceries for the rest of your life!" Although Yun Wei's tone was reproachful, she still couldn't hide her concern.
"Of course I'm going to buy it. If that uncle comes to settle accounts with me, I will tell him that my sister and the boss were going to get married, but unexpectedly, at the critical moment, the boss regretted it.
, I don’t want to marry my sister anymore, and saying that I am with her is just a show of love, which makes my sister very heartbroken. When I say this to my uncle, I must have a sad and choked tone!"
"I'm really convinced by you. I've even thought of a way out." Yun Wei felt that her simple heart was stimulated unprecedentedly, and this stimulation came from her good friend Xiaolu.
I couldn't help but think in my heart: This little girl is simply a cunning girl, a scheming girl, and a strong girl. I really don't know who can subdue this little girl who is as wild as a wild horse.
ah?
"Of course, if I hadn't thought of a way out, I wouldn't have said those words to him." Xiaolu raised her head proudly to Yunwei.
Yunwei shook her head helplessly.
Arriving at Xiaolu's residential house, Yunwei saw Xiaolu throwing the dishes into the kitchen, then she ran to the living room and threw her whole body into the sofa. Her limbs were spread wide, and she lay down weakly.
He sat motionless on the sofa and shouted: "I'm so tired. Buying groceries is like fighting a battle. I'm exhausted. Let's take a rest and cook again."
"Of course you are tired. You have to buy groceries and think of various ways to bargain. How can you be tired?" Yun Wei looked down at her and said calmly.
"Oh, just make fun of me. I'm just a married woman who cares about every detail. Every penny I can save is a penny. I'm so tired. I won't tell you anymore. I have to take a good rest to recharge my batteries.
Only then can you show off your cooking skills." As Xiaolu spoke, she spread herself out and squinted her eyes to rest.
"If you want to rest, change into a better posture. It's impossible for a woman to do this posture of yours. In other words: How could a normal woman do such inelegant actions like yours?" Yunwei looked at Xiaolu.
This lying posture is really not flattering.
"It doesn't matter if it's elegant or not, as long as it's comfortable to lie down, if I have to act like a lady at home, I won't be exhausted!" Xiaolu still said with a contented tone, then squinted her eyes and said lazily:
"Yunwei, my shoulders are so sore. Please help me rub my shoulders. Your hands are white, tender, thin and soft. It must be very comfortable when you rub them."
"If you want Bin Sheng to rub it for you tonight, I won't be able to rub it as well as Bin Sheng can to your liking!" Yun Wei winked at Xiao Lu with her long, wing-like eyelashes and smiled jokingly.
"Okay, you're actually making fun of me because I won't deal with you!" When she mentioned Bin Sheng, Xiaolu's face turned red. In order to cover up her shame, she grabbed a pillow and threw it at Yun Wei, and the two of them
They immediately formed a group of people laughing and having fun.
"Okay, okay, I won't make trouble with you anymore. You are so strong, how can I make trouble with you?" Yun Wei panted and was the first to stop.
Xiaolu placed the pillow behind her back, leaned on it comfortably with her eyes closed, and rested with her eyes closed.
"Xiaolu, since you are so tired, let me cook some food and you have a good rest." Yunwei felt that it was quite boring to sit on the sofa with nothing to do. She had never cooked before and she couldn't help but think.
Got the desire to cook.
As soon as she heard that Yunwei wanted to cook, Xiaolu's closed eyes immediately opened, and her whole body was suddenly stimulated to wake up a lot. She jumped up from the sofa and waved to Yunwei and said: "
No, no need, I've been sitting for a while and I've had enough rest. How can I bother you, a rare visitor who comes to my house, to cook? I'll cook it right away!"
After saying that, before Yunwei could say anything, she hurriedly ran towards the kitchen. She was so fast.
The dishes placed on the table had been swept away and very few were left.
Yunwei touched her slightly bulging belly after eating it for the first time and sighed to Xiaolu from the bottom of her heart: "Xiaolu, I never dreamed that someone like you could cook such delicious dishes.
It’s simply the most incredible thing I’ve discovered since I was born!”
