Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 66

In the area of ​​Qingshui Town, there is a big market on the first, fifteenth, and 25th of every month. People from nearby villages will come here to buy and sell.

Today happened to be the 25th of the month, and Yang Ruoqing caught up with the big set.

Along the way, all kinds of agricultural and sideline products dazzled her.

If it weren't for the different clothes and dresses of the endless stream of people around her, she really thought she had walked into a farmers' market in the 21st century.

"Qing'er, there are vacancies over there, let's go to that stall!"

"Hey, good!"

Yang Ruoqing followed Yang Huazhou, and after walking around, finally found an open space near the periphery of Wa City to settle down.

There, Yang Huazhou untied the braids on the pole and placed them neatly, Yang Ruoqing raised her head and glanced around.

This location is really remote. Looking at the stall next to it, there are also many hawkers dressed as farmers.

Some sell peanuts, soybeans, sesame, and others, and some buy Chinese cabbage. These are the most common things in life.

In contrast, she huffed up a lot of knitted goods, and she could be considered a big merchant, she chuckled.

"Qing'er, you squat here and wait for someone to buy it. Uncle has to take time to go to the owner at the other end of the town. When it's time for lunch, uncle will pick you up!"

"Okay, uncle, go get busy first."

"Do you remember the price I told you before?" Yang Huazhou asked again.

Based on his knowledge of the prices of goods in the tile market, Yang Huazhou formulated a sales price for Yang Ruoqing.

For the weaving category, there is a basket for four cents, a basket for five cents, and a patterned dustpan for six cents.

Air-dried matsutake costs five cents a catty, rice field eel twenty-eight cents a catty, and wild rabbit thirty cents a catty.

"Uncle, don't worry, I've written it all down here, I'm sure it won't go wrong!" Yang Ruoqing pointed to her head and smiled at Yang Huazhou.

Yang Huazhou left with confidence.

Yang Ruoqing squatted down and started her own sale.

I glanced at the hawkers on the left and right, and they were all squatting there, waiting for others to pass by the booth, and then say hello.

As the sun gradually rose, more and more people flowed.In front of Yang Ruoqing's booth, there were many people watching, but not many people bought it.

"Little girl, how do you sell these baskets and dustpans?"

A woman pointed to the pile of braids as Yang Ruoqing.

"Four cents for the basket, five cents for the basket, six cents for the dustpan..." Yang Ruoqing hurriedly stood up and quoted the price she had memorized in her heart like an endorsement, while looking at the woman expectantly.

The woman just picked up the dustpan and glanced up and down, then put it back and went to the booth next door.

Although a little disappointed, Yang Ruoqing was not discouraged, and waited!

But then, the same thing happened again.

One after another, Yang Ruoqing was a little anxious when she saw that the hawkers on the left and right were selling some things one after another, and her own side had not yet opened.

Eyeballs twitched for a while, Yang Ruoqing decided to take the plunge and turn passive into active.

So she stood up, cleared her throat, and covered the front of her mouth with her hands to make a trumpet shape, so that the sound could spread farther.

"Passing by, don't miss it, the good things here are all five cents, five cents, you can't buy it, you can't buy it, you can't be fooled..."

"Come and see, come and see, good things, cheap and durable..."

Facts have proved that Yang Ruoqing's trick really works.

After a while, there was a circle of people in front of the booth.

At this time, Yang Ruoqing had already picked up a dustpan with a beautiful pattern for display: "It's good-looking and practical..."

Yang Ruoqing did not divide the baskets and dustpans into three price levels as Yang Huazhou explained, but sold them at a compromise amount.

The people who were surrounded at first were all attracted by the beautifully patterned dustpan.

Similar dustpans are also sold over there. They don't have any patterns, and they don't look good. They cost seven cents a piece.

"Little girl, this dustpan is so beautiful, did you make it up?" someone asked curiously.

Yang Ruoqing smiled sweetly: "My dad made it up! Auntie, would you buy one? Take it back and put it on, it's good-looking and practical... Five pennies, five buns, I swallow them whole in a few mouthfuls. , this dustpan can last a year or two!"

"You little girl really knows how to plan, ok, then give me one!"

In this way, Yang Ruoqing's booth finally opened.

The beginning of everything is difficult, and if the first one buys a dustpan, there will be a second one.

Soon, the dustpan was sold out, most of the baskets were sold, and a few baskets were picked up.

"How did you sell this eel?"

Someone else came to ask.

Yang Ruoqing looked up and saw that the other party was a middle-aged uncle with a little fat.He raised his finger and asked the eel in the bucket beside Yang Ruoqing's feet.

"32 Wen a catty."

Yang Ruoqing said that the rush of the established price has slightly raised the four cents.

The middle-aged man didn't make a statement, and leaned over to look at the eel in the wooden barrel, "It's quite fresh, and the thicker one is worth the price, but the others are not worth it!"

He shook his head, stood up, and was about to leave with his hands behind his back.

"Uncle, stay here, let's discuss it!" Yang Ruoqing called to him with a smile.

"These yellow eels were caught last night, and it's not easy for my family to eat them and sell them for two dollars!" Yang Ruoqing laughed along with her: "Otherwise, at thirty cents a pound, I'll give you another basket. How about putting something on?"

The middle-aged man thought for a while, then raised his foot and lightly kicked the wooden barrel, "32 Wen a catty, it's almost as good as giving me this wooden barrel together!"

Yang Ruoqing's face was a little embarrassed, this wooden barrel is one of the few pieces of furniture in the house, and the four cents are given away, it's a loss!

The middle-aged man was also discerning. Seeing that Yang Ruoqing was silent, he smiled and pointed at the rabbit that was tied to her: "What's the price of that rabbit?"

Yang Ruoqing came back to her senses and hurriedly said, "The rabbit is thirty cents a pound."

She accidentally glanced at the fingers of the middle-aged man, and she was secretly surprised.

Eyeballs rolled, she suddenly thought of something, her eyes lit up, and a plan was brewing in her heart...

Over there, the middle-aged man squatted there, staring at the rabbit.

Appreciation was evident in his eyes, but he still shook his head: "It's not bad to be fat and strong, but it's a pity that it's a male rabbit, it would be great if it were a female rabbit! The male rabbit is not worth the price! Then the neck is off. A circle of hair, the rabbit skin will be peeled off at that time, and there are flaws, so I can't make a waistcoat, no good!"

Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes secretly, thinking that such a good rabbit is worthless if you criticize it, damn it!

(I would like to explain to you that during this period of time, due to work, I will be busy. The article will be updated every day, and will not be interrupted or abandoned. After the New Year's Day, there will be more. Thank you for your support.)
