Chapter 812 Purchasing Materials
Rice grain costs twelve cents per catty, and three hundred catties of new rice is equivalent to three taels and six cents of silver.

Mung beans are cheap, only five cents per catty, and thirty catties of mung beans only cost 150 cents.

Bacon is more expensive and has special flavor. It costs 27 cents per catty. Yuanbao weighed it and bought fifty catties for only one, two or three cents.

After adding up several items, I had to give them five taels of silver.

Yuan Bao specially picked out a few heavy silver coins from his purse, handed them over, and weighed them, which were almost five taels and one cent, because the shopkeepers of the bacon shop and the grain shop were husband and wife, and they settled the accounts together.

The shopkeeper and his wife broke the change for the ingot and found 86 copper coins. Isn't the change here?
Asking the second brother to load the grain into the carriage, Yuan Bao returned to the bookstall and borrowed two cents to pay Pei Yu. When he asked the little beggar to help deliver the letter, he did not forget to give the little beggar two meat buns as payment.

When Pei's father and Pei's mother felt relieved after receiving the letter, Yuan Bao and Pei Yu also returned to Kaoshan Village.

When Granny Ying saw that they had brought back so many things, she said angrily: "What are you two kids doing with so much rice? Granny Ying said, you can help me if you need it, I don't need you to give me any money."

Yuan Bao played with her words, "Grandma Ying, I didn't give you any money. We may have to stay here for a while longer, so these rice grains are not only for you, but also for the food of the few of us." ah."

"I see, but why did you buy so many mung beans?"

Mrs. Ying was overjoyed when she heard that they were going to live together for a while, but she didn't express her joy in words. She had long been able to calm down her emotions in her young life.

Yuan Bao said: "As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. Grandma Ying, let me say something disrespectful. I see that you live a poor life, and you must have no relatives around you.

So I have been observing these days. There is an official road outside Kaoshan Village. Many cars and horses pass by on weekdays. How about I teach you how to make a mung bean soup. After we leave, you can also make a living and earn some money. How about using money to support yourself in retirement? "

The rice grain will eventually be exhausted, but if you master the skills and skills, you will be able to travel all over the world without fear.

What she has seen these days is that what Grandma Ying can cook is just those few dishes.

Mrs. Ying was moved, "My child, you have a heart..."

For her daily living expenses, she relied on embroidering some handkerchiefs and having them brought to the city to sell them, and the broker in the middle took half of the profits.

In addition, as she has gotten older over the years, it is very difficult for her to do the sewing work. Isn't her life getting harder day by day?
"This is what I should do. Grandma Ying, you took us in. I will never forget this friendship in my life."

Yuan Bao said, beckoning, and asked Jing Hui, the only coolie in the family, to come over as expected.

"Carry these two bags of rice in and put them on the table. Don't put them on the ground, otherwise the mice will chew them." Yuan Bao ordered.

"understood."

Jinghui picked up the sack and left. He was half a monk, but Grandma Ying felt particularly distressed when she saw that he was struggling.

Because she also has a son who has been sent to a temple to become a monk since he was born. The existence of Jinghui has become a meal replacement for Granny Ying to a large extent, so naturally she feels distressed.

After finishing packing the rice, Yuan Bao and Mrs. Ying squatted on the patio, scooped up some mung beans and started washing them in water. They were going to make some mung bean soup and hang it in the well to freeze. It could be used as a dessert after dinner in the evening.

Otherwise, this summer would be really difficult and miserable.

When Yuan Bao was thinking this, he washed the mung beans more carefully.
