Chapter 278: Fruits are exchanged for sweet potatoes in Wang'ao Village
However, her blood was boiling, and her second sister-in-law still didn't understand Bai Meixi's intention, so she asked with some confusion: "Why...are you using this reputation?"

Bai Meixi responded with a smile: "Don't do anything! Just let people know that you are good at sewing."

"What's the point of promoting this?" The second sister-in-law smiled sheepishly.

"This shows that our mature family is very powerful! Look, our family has a scholar named Wu, a promising Xiao Qi, and most importantly, a second sister-in-law who is an expert in sewing. Don't you think so?" Bai Meixi said The compliments made the second sister-in-law feel extremely beautiful.

She knew she couldn't explain too much to her second sister-in-law. After all, private ownership was not allowed yet. If she said too much, everyone would become suspicious.This kind of fun dispelled the doubts of everyone in the family. Even the mother-in-law, who was worried about money, was made to laugh by Bai Meixi.

At night, Bai Meixi returned to her room, lying on the bed and thinking about what her sister-in-law had said last time about Wang'ao Village. There were so many sweet potatoes in the village, and she couldn't just watch such a good opportunity slip away.The weather is hot now, and sweet potatoes tend to germinate over time, and the villagers are not very good at preserving them. If she collected them and put them in her own space, this situation would not happen.

With Bai Meixi thinking this way, she planned to go to Wang'ao Village tomorrow to get this matter settled.

The next day.

Bai Meixi got up early and went out before her family members got up.

This time going out was like going to Da Liu Village. She dressed herself up well.However, the more people dress up, the better they look. Bai Meixi's dress is to act ugly, the uglier the better.Because only if she is ugly, no one will recognize her, and she will not cause some trouble and cause some criticism.

It only took Bai Meixi 10 minutes to ride a bicycle from her home to Wang'ao Village, her natal family's home.The makeup she wore this time was not only rustic, but also old-fashioned. She looked 20 years older at once, and combined with her clothes, she looked like a rural woman in her 40s in the village.I'm afraid that even if my eldest sister-in-law passes in front of me, it will be difficult for her to recognize her!

Before entering the village, Bai Meixi had already packed peaches and kiwis in baskets. One basket was placed on the left side of the bicycle, and the other basket was placed on the right side of the bicycle. The weights on both sides were about the same, but they were not too heavy.

As soon as she entered the village, Bai Meixi got off her bicycle and opened the cloth covering the basket. Fresh peaches and green kiwis were displayed in front of her eyes. The faint fragrance of peaches hit her nostrils. Bai Meixi Satisfied, Xi pushed the bicycle forward.

But as soon as they entered the village, a group of children playing on the street came up. They looked at the peaches in the basket and their eyes almost went straight.

"Auntie, how do you sell these peaches?" One of the children couldn't help asking.

"Seven cents a pound." Bai Meixi thought to herself. This child called her aunt. It seemed that her makeup was quite successful this time.

The child said "Oh" and turned around to run away. Bai Meixi grabbed him and asked, "Why are you leaving?"

"I asked my mother to buy it for me." The child's eyes were shining.

"Tell your mother, you can also exchange it with something." Bai Meixi said.

"Can I exchange it for something? What is it?"

"Hmm...for example, sweet potatoes." "Sweet potatoes! We have sweet potatoes at home." The child was not sure at first, because rural people generally live a poor life and are not willing to buy some fruits to eat on weekdays. There are not many. , it would be really great if you could exchange it for something.

He let go of Bai Meixi and ran away happily.

The other children were also very greedy at first, but they didn't dare to hold on to the hope that their family would buy them. But now when they heard Bai Meixi said that they could exchange them for sweet potatoes, they all became energetic and ran home happily. .

Children like to scream when they are happy, and people in the village live from house to house, and word spreads. Everyone in Wang'ao Village knows that a man has come to the village and exchanges sweet potatoes for peaches. But the people in Wang'ao Village were very happy.

You know, there are so many sweet potatoes in their village that they are almost rotting. Every household is worried about what to do with so many sweet potatoes!It is being sold and not being sold. It would be a pity to keep it and eat it until my family is almost sick from eating it. It would be a pity to throw it away.It's good now, here comes someone who can exchange for fruit!
When everyone heard this, they all became excited.In order to confirm the authenticity of the matter, some adults came empty-handed. When they asked Bai Meixi that they could really change it, they ran back happily.

Some people rushed over with sweet potatoes and asked Bai Meixi, "Comrade, how can I change it?"

"Two pounds of sweet potatoes are exchanged for one pound of peaches." Bai Meixi responded.

"What about the kiwi!"

"Same price."

"Here, please weigh me how many sweet potatoes these are." The man carried a full bag of sweet potatoes. After Bai Meixi weighed them, he exchanged them for fruits.Carrying the heavy fruit, I couldn't help but feel how beautiful it was.

Bai Meixi looked at the people who were the first to get the news and were already walking over carrying sweet potatoes. Then she pushed her bicycle towards the village to meet the villagers. Otherwise, it would be too heavy to carry the sweet potatoes one by one.

Just after entering the village, the bottom of the basket of peaches had already reached the bottom. Bai Meixi put the collected sweet potatoes into the basket and continued walking forward.Two kilograms of sweet potatoes are exchanged for one kilogram of fruit. This is the most economical solution for the villagers in Wangao Village. On the one hand, it solves the problem of not knowing what to do with so many sweet potatoes. On the other hand, they also have fresh fruits to eat.

Naturally, no one will miss such a cost-effective deal.

There are so many sweet potatoes in Wang'ao Village that every household wants to exchange them. This is an advantage for them. They even think they have met a fool. They think Bai Meixi doesn't know the market for sweet potatoes and they can't sell them now. She went out and sold them to make up for the price, and she even gave them fruits in exchange.

Soon the bottom of both baskets of fruit was gone, and the sweet potatoes arrived. The villagers who had not yet arrived felt very sorry, and even regretted that they had not come sooner.

Bai Meixi comforted: "Don't worry, everyone, there are still fruits. My family is in the village next door, and I will bring them back in a while. If there are any more sweet potatoes that you want to exchange for, you can wait in the village and I will go to your house." They were collected door to door."

After hearing what Bai Meixi said, everyone felt relieved and waited in the village with their own sweet potatoes, as if they were afraid that the fruit would be replaced again before they got in line.

Bai Meixi left the village, pushed the sweet potatoes into the space in a deserted place, then poured all the sweet potatoes into a large empty vat, then filled the basket with peaches and kiwis, and placed it on the On my bicycle, I went to Wang'ao Village.
