Chapter 209 Doing Business 2

Chapter 209 Doing Business 2
"Unload our things from the carriage first." After Qian Jin ordered Ah Qiu to remove all the things that were tied up, he gave the money agreed upon by the coachman, and then let them go first...

Looking at the people coming and going, Aqiu scratched his head in doubt and said, "Ma'am, it seems to be a market today!" Since he was bought into Zhoucun, he has never been out of the village, so he never thought What day is today.

"En." Qianjin nodded. She was dressed plainly, but she had a different temperament from the girl next to her, which quickly attracted some people's attention.

"What does your house sell?" A man who looked like a butler led two servants to Qianjin, curiously looking at a basket of things covered by fresh grass, and asked aloud.

"The things in the country, please let this master take a look." Qianjin opened the fresh grass on the frame without being overbearing, and replied with a smile.

"Hey, why is it an egg and a duck egg? I thought it was something good." Curious people gathered around and saw that it was an egg and a duck egg. After making a mockery, he was ready to leave.

The man who looked like a butler also turned around and wanted to leave in disappointment, thinking that he might not be able to buy any good things today.

"My lord, please wait." Seeing that the big client was about to leave, Qian Jin immediately said, "My eggs and duck eggs look ordinary, but there are tricks inside. If you are interested, I can open a few." Let me show you..."

"What? There are tricks in eggs and duck eggs? This is the first time I've heard of it." Hearing this, the man immediately became interested, looked at Qianjin and said with a smile, "Tell me about it, in this egg and duck eggs, What else is there?"

Because of Qianjin's loud and clear voice, the crowd who had dispersed gathered around again, and they all talked a lot, thinking that Qianjin was playing tricks and trying to deceive others to coax money.Regarding these gossips, Qianjin didn't say a word, just looked at the person she was staring at, and asked openly: "I wonder if there is a young lady, young master in this master's family?"

"That's for sure." The man who looked like a butler immediately smiled proudly: "I am the butler of the Bai family in the south of the city. People call me Butler Bai. The Bai family has a pair of precious dragon and phoenix twins. They are from the whole city. I know, why are you asking this?"

Twins, great!The daughter hid her joy in her heart, and said flatteringly, "Master Bai is so lucky to have a pair of golden boys and jade girls, which is really enviable!"

"Hehe..." Qianjin's words made Butler Bai's mouth unable to close its smile, as if the twins belonged to him, his mouth was grinning behind his ears.

"Bai Butler, you don't know, my eggs and duck eggs are very good for children to eat..." Qianjin was talking to Bai Butler, and at the same time gave Aqiu a wink. He took out a wooden bowl from his cloth bag and handed it to Qianjin.After Qian Jin took the wooden bowl, she grabbed an egg and said to Butler Bai: "My eggs are all red hearts, and they are all big..."

"The one with a red heart?" Upon hearing this, Butler Bai regained his energy, and asked in disbelief, "Is it really a red heart?"

They all eat well, and know that there are very few eggs and duck eggs with red hearts, which are extremely rare and taste good.If he really bought red-hearted eggs and duck eggs and went back today, Mrs. Madam would be very happy.

"If Steward Bai doesn't believe it, just grab two and try... By the way, the duck eggs in that box are basically double-yolk eggs, and the yellow is also red..." Qian Jin came again when he was most excited One note, encouraging others to give themselves a good start.

When Butler Bai heard this, he was still calm.He grabbed two eggs casually, knocked them into the bowl with a "bang bang", and smashed them into the bowl... As soon as the eggs went into the bowl, many people gathered to look at them, and when they found out that they were really red hearts, they were all excited up.

"Bai Butler, let's see if it's a real double yolk egg." Someone joined in the fun and said to Butler Bai with a smile.

"Yes, yes, let's see if they have fooled us."

Upon hearing this, Butler Bai reached out to take a duck egg, knocked it open and put it in another wooden bowl. Seeing that it was really double-yellow, he squinted his eyes in surprise, and somewhat believed what he said.

"I don't know how to address it?" Butler Bai became more interested, and his attitude towards Qianjin became even better.

"Little lady's husband's family name is Zhou, so you can call me Zhou." She didn't want people to call her madam, wouldn't that be sincere to make people scold her.

"Mr. Zhou, does your family specialize in selling these?" Butler Bai became curious, thinking that if he sold these specially, he could still buy them in the future, which would be great.

"It's not specifically for selling these." Seeing that Steward Bai really wanted to do business with her, Qianjin explained with a smile, "My family is in Zhoucun, and the chickens and ducks are eaten from the sea. It's so good... If Steward Bai wants to buy it, he can send someone to Zhoucun to buy it in the future, and I can reserve it for you first..."

"Okay, little sister-in-law is really a straightforward person." Butler Bai felt extremely relieved by what she said, thinking that if other people knew about the eggs and duck eggs, the business would definitely be good.She was so polite to herself, and he didn't take Joe, so he said straightforwardly: "Today, give me a basket of eggs and duck eggs. Are you selling them individually or by the catty?"

Selling by the piece or by the catty... This is something that Qianjin has never thought about.She always thought that eggs and duck eggs are calculated by the catty, but she didn't expect Steward Bai to ask such a question. She made some calculations in her mind, and then said helplessly: "This is the first time I'm doing this business, and I don't know the price of others. How did they sell it, but I bought the eggs and food from the villagers, which is really good, so this price..."

"Everyone else's eggs cost a penny, but yours' two pennies are worth a penny!" Someone asked impulsively when Qian Jin hesitated to make an offer.

"Hey, I thought it would be an egg with three pennies, and duck eggs are more expensive, especially the double-yolk ones... Now, what does this little brother say, I can't make it up, so let's do it! Today is my first egg. When doing business a day, the eggs are worth two pennies each, the duck eggs are worth three pennies, and the duck eggs are five pennies...the next time you sell them, they will all be priced up by one penny." Qianjin pretended to be helpless, scaring everyone away. .

"Okay, then I want a basket of eggs, a basket of duck eggs with double yolks, and you can calculate how much money I get." Seeing that the price is fair, Butler Bai nodded and agreed.

"I want it too, I want it too..." The crowd became excited when they saw that everyone could get a penny cheaper today.

Qian Jin looked at the crazy crowd, and immediately said: "I brought a lot today, everyone, don't squeeze in, if you crush these fragile eggs and duck eggs, no one can buy them. This housekeeper Bai bought If you want to buy a lot, I will calculate it for him first... If you want to buy it, come one by one first, and my little guy will collect the money, and you will pack it in a basket by yourself..."

With Qianjin's reasonable words, although the restless crowd was a little crowded, fortunately, they were not so excited anymore.After Aqiu got Qianjin's instructions, he counted silver for those who bought the change, you ten, I twenty, it was still quiet, and there was no looting.

"This is seven hundred and twelve coins in total, and the change will be wiped off. Just give me seven hundred coins!" After doing the calculation, Qianjin politely said to the white housekeeper.

She knew that if Steward Bai hadn't been here to do business with her today, who would have known what the crowd would have been like, so she gave it a small change, just to make everyone familiar with it, anyway, there will be business in the future .

"Little sister-in-law is really polite, okay, then I won't be too polite, this is seven hundred Wen, you keep it." Butler Bai smiled and ordered the two servants to carry away the eggs and duck eggs, and then discussed with Qianjin: " From now on, on the tenth and twentieth of every month, I will send someone to Zhoucun to look for you, so don’t send them to the city to sell them.”
