Chapter 28 Can a steamed bun be sold for twenty taels of silver?
The sick beauty glared, "I don't want coarse food!"
Xiao Si also quickly said that their young master did not want whole grains. If he could eat whole grains, he would not be in such a horrible state.
Xia Qiyue nodded, "Of course not whole grains. To be honest, I don't like eating whole grains either!"
After saying that, he didn't want to stand, so he went straight to the soft couch by the window and sat down.
I'm tired. This escape is too tiring, and the blisters on my feet hurt. I can't stand standing. I can't sit for a moment.
Third Young Master Pei was simply frightened by the boldness of the girl in front of him.
Xia Qiyue... How should I put it, let's just say it's beautiful. It's not beautiful at all. At least now that she's gray and dressed like a village girl, there's no sense of beauty at all.
But the facial features are where they should be, so they are visible and not awkward.
In terms of temperament, Xia Qiyue has a good handle on it. She doesn't look like a refugee fleeing the famine at all. Instead, she gives Pei Sanshao a feeling of disguise.
He felt that the girl in front of him was a very powerful character, but she was disguised as a peasant girl to hide her appearance.
After hearing Xia Qiyue's words that it was not whole grain food, Pei Sanshao regained his energy and quickly sat up straight. His weak body regained some strength.
"It's not whole grains or white porridge, what is it?"
This was what Xia Qiyue was waiting for. She snapped her fingers, sat up straight, and told Xiao Si to close the door before speaking mysteriously.
"Steamed buns, sesame seed cakes, and eggs, you can choose from them!"
At this time, Pei Sanshao first confirmed the identity of the little girl in front of him. She was absolutely extraordinary. Even he couldn't buy fine grains. This girl only bought steamed buns, sesame seed cakes and, exaggeratedly, eggs.
How long has it been since he had that stuff?
Oops, I can’t count anymore, it’s been a long time anyway.
When he was in the mansion, he wouldn't look at the eggs at all, so he couldn't count how long it had been since he had eaten them. But now, it sounds too kind, isn't it?
"I want eggs, eggs!"
The delicious taste made his mouth water.
"Okay!" Xia Qiyue nodded, "How many do you want?"
Third Young Master Pei was extremely excited by what Xia Qiyue said.
Does she mean that he wants to buy as many as he wants? Then she will buy a basket...
I thought about it and actually said it out of my mouth.
"Have a basket!"
Xia Qiyue smiled brightly, and said in a leisurely manner, "Do you know how much money I paid for a bowl of porridge just now?"
Xiao Si didn't wait for Pei Sanshao to open his mouth and rushed to answer, "I know, I know, two taels of silver a bowl, I asked before!"
Xia Qiyue completed the appraisal and found out that he was a scammer.
However, his face was full of excitement, and he lowered his voice and said, "These eggs are more delicious than white porridge and rich in nutrients. However, there are fewer eggs than a bowl of white porridge, so the feeling of fullness will be smaller..." Balabala did the math, and finally stretched out
He held out two fingers and said, "I want two taels of silver each. It's troublesome! You are sure you want a basket, right?"
I was laughing so hard in my heart that I couldn't stop laughing.
The eggs usually only cost two copper coins, but she actually offered them twenty taels of silver, which is a huge profit.
It really lives up to the saying "things are rare and valuable"
When everyone is dying of thirst, who can raise chickens? No one raises chickens, which means there are no eggs to buy. She has eggs, which are the most precious ones. If she wants to eat them, she has to press her
Price comes.
Xiaosi's pupils dilated, he stretched out two fingers in disbelief, and stammered, "Two...two taels of silver? One egg? Girl, are you kidding me?"
Xia Qiyue was unhappy and was about to get up, "Then just think I'm joking and let's go!"
Third Young Master Pei glanced at Xiao Si, who was not successful enough but more likely to be ruined, and then quickly said, "Girl, stay back! This young master will buy it!"
This made Xiao Si even more speechless, and he immediately whispered in his young master's ear, "Master Third, do you know how many chickens can be bought with two taels of silver? That can buy more than twenty chickens. One chicken lays one egg a day."
Those are more than twenty eggs, and they can be killed for meat, so let’s just spend twenty taels of silver to buy an egg, what a loss!”
Third Young Master Pei didn't buy it. He glared at Xiao Si and said word by word, "I want to eat chicken now. You go and buy it for me!" The voice was so loud that Xia Qiyue could hear it clearly and laughed.
stomachache.
Xiaosi was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything anymore. He lowered his head and thought for a while before he understood what the young master meant.
The Pei family is the richest man in Anyang Prefecture. When it comes to doing business, everyone in the house can speak fluently.
Naturally, we also understand the principle that rare things are valuable.
Anyway, my young master has a lot of silver, so just two taels. How much silver can a basket of eggs bring?
There was no time when their young master went out to eat without spending money like water.
"Okay! But I suggest you buy a few more steamed buns to satisfy your hunger!" Xia Qiyue kindly suggested to the rich young master.
I ate five or six eggs but not one steamed bun was enough to fill me up. As for the price...she was kind-hearted, so it was only two taels of silver.
"Okay, okay, whatever you have there, bring it to me!" Mr. Pei waved his hand proudly.
"That's not okay. I'm a weak woman. If I take it for you first and you don't give me any money, wouldn't I suffer a big loss? Let's do this. You give me your money first. I have a hundred taels of goods. Just give me one.
One hundred taels, I live on the second floor, and after collecting the money, I will get the goods for your Xiaosi!"
One hundred taels meant fifty eggs or steamed buns. She bought them for one hundred gold coins and made a lot of money.
"Okay! Pei Si, give me the money and you can follow! This young master is going to starve to death!"
One hundred taels was really just a small sum of money to Pei Sanshao, so Xiao Si happily took the banknote to Xia Qiyue and followed her downstairs.
Xia Qiyue did not expose the four little ones, but took them to the next room, then left Xiao Si at the door, locked the door and went in to get it.
I bought forty eggs and ten steamed buns from the space farm shop, opened the door and let Xiao Si find a way to take them away.
She really had nothing to pack for him.
Xiaosi didn't mind this either. When he saw the thing, he jumped up with joy and quickly went downstairs to get the container and put it away.
With one hundred taels in hand, Xia Qiyue couldn't wait. She quickly locked the door and entered the space to draw the lottery.
She had a feeling that the space had deceived her to such an extent that she wouldn't be able to win even a thousand taels of silver without giving it away.
But you still have to smoke. If you don’t smoke, you will have no chance.
Just as she was about to enter the space, the door was banged.
She was startled and quickly looked towards the door, fearing that she would disturb the four people sleeping next door.
He quickly ran over and said, "Who is it?"
Hearing her voice, Xiao Si came over with a look of understanding on his face.
If this isn't the person who bought rice porridge from her before, then who is it?
"Girl... I am a resident on the third floor. I bought rice porridge with the girl..."
As soon as Xiaosi reported her identity, Xia Qiyue knew that she was here to work. She opened the door, and then she didn't let anyone in. She just blocked the door and asked, "What did you smell coming here again?"
Na Xiaosi nodded awkwardly, "To be honest, I just met a guy at the stairs holding steamed buns and eggs. When I asked him, he said he bought them from a girl, so he came over to ask if he could sell them too.
Give it to the younger one? My young master is actually a little weak..."
