Chapter 10
Uncle Gu was a little surprised and said, "Brother, are you telling the truth? Can it cost you a penny or two a catty?"
Gu Yunxian, who was standing behind Uncle Gu, also showed joy. If it really cost two cents a catty, then they would be able to earn more pennies. This is a good thing!
On the other hand, Yin Ziying had an expression on her face that I knew it was. She had already seen this guy's words and deeds just now. Not only is this guy a good character, but the restaurant's training work is also doing a good job.
Now it seems that this is really the case, the price given by this store is indeed fair.
On the way here just now, Uncle Gu told her that the price of domestic chickens in this era is about 18 yuan a catty, and the guy just said that ordinary pheasants can be sold for 20 yuan a catty, and they can be expensive One or two pennies is really not deceiving them.
The guy nodded and said: "I also saw what our shopkeeper said. I think the quality of your pheasant is better than that of last time. Please wait here for a while. I will go in and call our shopkeeper."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked in, then turned his head and said to Uncle Gu: "You guys wait a moment, our shopkeeper will be here soon."
Not long after, I saw the guy bringing an old man who was about fifty years old. The old man smiled and said to Uncle Gu and the others: "Are you guys going to sell pheasants? Where are the pheasants? Can you show me?" "
When he looked down and saw the pheasant in Uncle Gu's hand, his eyes lit up.
"This pheasant is in good condition, it's really good, I think the chicken made out of it will taste better.
How about this, we usually charge 20 Wen per catty for ordinary pheasants, but the appearance of your pheasant is really good, and some distinguished customers may like it, so I will add 3 Wen per catty to you, how about it? "
Giving an extra 3 Wen a catty, it would be 23 Wen a catty. Yin Ziying was overjoyed, she never imagined that she put the pheasant into the space and took it out last night, there would be such a good market.
Fortunately, she put the pheasant in for one night, otherwise it would only be sold for 20 yuan a catty, which is 3 yuan a catty more expensive!
Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Uncle Gu nodded and said, "Of course it is possible, we are willing to sell."
Immediately, the shopkeeper turned his head and said to the waiter: "Go and take out the scale beam, let's weigh it in person, so that they can know how many catties this pheasant weighs."
"Okay, shopkeeper, I'll go right away." The waiter ran into the restaurant in response, and quickly took out a scale.
Then, in front of Yin Ziying and the other three, he began to weigh the pheasant.
"Hey, uncle, your pheasant is quite heavy. It weighs 12 catties and 7 taels, which is a few catties heavier than domestic chickens."
Hearing this, Uncle Gu also smiled cheerfully. He just watched them weigh it, so he naturally knew that the guy didn't lie to him. This pheasant is indeed 12 catties and 7 taels, which is really a hefty catty.
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "12 catties and 7 taels, 23 Wen a catty, that's a total of 291 Wen, please wait here, I'll go in and get the silver."
Seeing that the shopkeeper was about to leave, Uncle Gu had no intention of saying anything, so Yin Ziying immediately shouted: "Shopkeeper, wait a moment!"
Hearing this, the shopkeeper stopped and looked at her with a puzzled expression. Yin Ziying was a little embarrassed and asked:
"Shopkeeper, we not only caught a pheasant yesterday, but also picked up 5 eggs from its nest, so I want to ask you, do you accept these wild eggs? How much is a wild egg worth?"
Originally, she wanted Uncle Gu to ask, but it was obvious that Uncle Gu was happy that the pheasant was so valuable, so he forgot to ask, so in desperation, she had no choice but to ask by herself.
Hearing Yin Ziying's words, the shopkeeper raised his eyebrows with interest, "Really? Then show me that wild egg."
Immediately, Gu Yunxian quickly took down the small back basket behind him. This morning he put wild eggs into his back basket. The new sister-in-law even put some hay in it specially to prevent the eggs from being smashed. He remembered this .
Seeing those five round wild eggs, the shopkeeper said with a smile:
"Okay, this is indeed a wild egg. Although the taste of this wild egg is no different from that of domestic eggs, some distinguished guests like to eat this kind of egg.
Ordinary eggs cost 1 penny, but wild eggs are much more valuable, so let me give you 5 pennies, how about it? "
Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Yin Ziying nodded and smiled, "Thank you so much, shopkeeper, we've sold all five of these."
Originally, she thought that an ordinary egg costs 1 penny, but this egg can only be as big as two wild eggs, which is only two or three pennies at most.
But she didn't expect that the shopkeeper directly gave her 5 cents a piece. This is a good thing, and she must agree.
Hearing this, the shopkeeper smiled and nodded: "Okay, then this pheasant plus five wild eggs, the total is 317 Wen. Wait a moment, I will go back and get the silver now."
Seeing the waiter follow the shopkeeper into the restaurant, Uncle Gu's face suddenly showed a hint of annoyance.
If he knew that the wild eggs were so valuable, he would not accept them no matter what. In this case, he could earn an extra 10 Wen for the children.
Afterwards, the shopkeeper handed 317 Wen to Uncle Gu, and Uncle Gu gave the money to Yin Ziyin, "Ziying, take it, you are their eldest sister-in-law, and you should take care of the money at home." .”
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Gu Yunxian again and said, "Brother Xian, the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, let your sister-in-law take care of the money, do you have any objection?"
Gu Yunxian shook his head and replied: "I have no objection. Uncle is right. The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. The money in the family should be kept by the sister-in-law."
Hearing what the two said, Yin Ziying beside her was a little moved, but at the same time felt a little heavy in her heart.
The four words of elder sister-in-law and mother are not so easy to bear, and the money is not so easy to take.
Because the second room of the Gu family is really poor now, and owes a lot of money to Uncle Gu's family. Apart from the five taels of silver that came back after marrying her, I heard that when the parents of the second room of the Gu family were sick, they also borrowed a lot of money from them.
She couldn't help but sighed in her heart, alas, it was really hard for her to be the bride, she made a mistake, she was a widow.
After I get married, I have to pay the dowry money myself. This is like those modern people who give loans to marry their wives as dowry gifts, and then ask their wives to pay them back with me after the work is done.
But there is at least one man in that kind. She has never even seen a man's face now, and she doesn't know whether she is alive or dead, so she is a widow!
Seeing that she hadn't made a sound for a long time, Uncle Gu was startled, and said nervously, "Ziying, are you alright?"
In fact, he was also a little worried that this nephew and daughter-in-law from Yinjia Village would not be willing, because as an uncle, he saw that his brother's house had become like this, so he could only choose to help them find someone with five taels of silver. Just take care of their lives.
If they were really allowed to feed the children of the second family, five taels of silver would not be enough.
Hearing Uncle Gu's voice, Yin Ziying came back to her senses, she clenched the money in her hand, smiled at Uncle Gu, "I'm fine, Uncle, I'm just thinking about what food to buy later .”
