Chapter 118 Buying Grain (6)
Qin Shuang took the table, chairs and benches to the door, and sat at the table by herself with an account book in front of her. Zhang Qiaoting stood beside her with a steelyard in front of her.

Qin Shuang said to the villagers who lined up: "The price of selling grain from me is the same as the price purchased from the grain shop. Rice and millet are three and a half pennies, corn is three and a half pennies, and flour is two and a half pennies. Make up the whole number, and you will definitely not lose everyone."

The villagers nodded when they heard this. Originally, they thought it would be a good thing to sell the grain, and they didn't mind even if it was deducted a penny. Now that Qin Shuang said this, they felt that Qin Shuang was very kind.

"Then let's start now, number one, take out the grain and weigh it."

The middle-aged man at the front immediately put the grain on the scale for Zhang Qiaoting to weigh.

Soon, Zhang Qiaoting shouted: "Two hundred catties of rice, sixty catties of corn, and forty catties of flour."

Qin Shuang recorded the amount in the account, then directly calculated the price in her head, and then Zhang Qiaoting said, "Rice is 210 Wen, corn is 810 Wen, flour is [-] Wen, and the total is [-] Wen." Take out the corresponding copper plates and string them up and hand them over to the opponent.

The uncle turned his head for a long time before he figured out that the calculation was correct, and then left with a happy expression on his face.

The villagers behind also calculated the amount of money according to the reported figures, and they couldn't help showing surprise when they found out that there was no problem. Qin Shuang didn't expect Qin Shuang to have such a good ability to calculate accounts. At the same time, he saw the man kicking the money into his arms with an expression Walking briskly home, many people were both anxious and happy, wishing it would be their turn, and they stuck their heads out to look at Zhang Qiaoting.

"400 meters of rice, [-] catties of corn, and [-] catties of corn."

"One tael and two hundred wen for rice, six hundred wen for corn, and 350 wen for corn, a total of two tael and one hundred wen."

"Two hundred catties of rice, 350 catties of corn, and 170 catties of flour."

"Rice is 420 Wen, corn is 75 tael and [-] Wen, and flour is [-] and [-] Wen, for a total of [-] taels and [-] Wen."

"450 catties of rice and [-] catties of flour."

"One tael and 350 wen for rice, and five hundred wen for flour, a total of one tael and 850 wen."

"Rice..."

At first, the villagers followed the calculations to see if there were any mistakes. Later, they found that their calculation speed could not keep up with Qin Shuang's. In addition, the accounts of the previous people were indeed correct. If they couldn't run away, they simply let Qin Shuang settle the score with peace of mind. They took the money and left, and everything was fine.

At the back, Qin Shuang also found it troublesome, and didn't say how much the rice was and how much the corn was. When Zhang Qiaoting reported the number, she counted for a second or two and reported the total directly. The efficiency became faster and faster, and it also made the villagers They were stunned and speechless for a moment.

After queuing up about fifteen or six people, it was the turn of the Qin family. All five members of the Qin family were mobilized. Of course, only Qin Fugui and Qin Cheng were the two laborers carrying the food. The three of Qin and Li simply came to join in the fun. Or it could be said that he was afraid that Qin Shuang would trip them up and give them less money.

Qin Shuang didn't intend to give them any special treatment, as usual, Zhang Qiaoting weighed the grain and reported the count, and Qin Shuang casually reported the total.

The Qin family's land is neither too much nor too little, because the land is owned by the family and not rented, so there is no need to hand over part of the harvest to the landlord's family, and the rice and flour they can buy add up to 700 for their own food. A lot of catties is not too little, and the final calculation of the money is two taels and six hundred Wen.
