The little beloved wife of the farmhouse

Chapter 31
The proprietress saw it, hey, it seems that there is a door!He quickly grabbed Yun Shilei and said, "Hey, don't leave. We don't specialize in selling wooden barrels here, and the price is easy to negotiate. How about you pay me back?"

Yun Shilei looked back at the proprietress and said tentatively: "Twelve copper coins? If you give it, I will take it." The proprietress frowned when she heard this: "What, twelve copper coins! Why don't you Go grab it? Don’t sell it!”

Yun Shilei saw that the proprietress was annoyed, probably because the price was too low.But now she can save every penny, so she smiled and said to the proprietress: "Look, you can leave it alone, and this place does not specialize in selling wooden barrels. Whoever comes to buy grain without a container, that is, I won’t buy anything today. You see, I’m not a rich man, so just buy it for me. Anyway, I’ll buy food from you later.”

The proprietress looked at Yun Shilei who was covered in patches and thought for a while, she saw that this little girl didn't have much money, and finally a buyer came, and she was still poor!Forget it, she coughed and said, "Okay, if you sincerely want to buy it, I'll sell it to you for [-] Wen. Nothing less!"

Yun Shilei: "Fifteen, up to fifteen! Otherwise, I'll go to someone else's house to have a look!"

The proprietress: "No, the capital is not enough. At least [-] coins, other people's houses sell at least [-] coins, if you still think it's too much, you can go around again."

Yun Shilei saw that if she couldn't negotiate the price, she immediately made a decision: "Okay, I want two small wooden barrels." It has been a long time since such a hearty bargaining, Yun Shilei was very excited.

As she spoke, she asked, "How much do you pay for a catty of millet?"

"Seven cents, six cents for more than five catties." The proprietress became confident again when she mentioned the price of grain.

"Where's the brown rice?"

"One price."

"Okay, five catties of millet and five catties of brown rice are packed separately. How much is the boss's total?"

I didn't expect that the little girl in front of me, who looked unremarkable, could buy so many things. The proprietress was also happy, and quickly picked up the abacus to calculate.Yun Shilei
After a moment of silence, he said, "The millet and brown rice cost 36 Wen in total, and the two wooden barrels cost 96 Wen. The total is 95 Wen. Can I give you [-] Wen?"

The proprietress flicked the abacus beads for a long time before she raised her head and said with a smile: "Yes, my daughter, I didn't expect you to calculate the accounts so well. Even the accountant is not as fast as you. Okay, I will charge you 95 Wen."

Yun Shilei smiled, at least she is a university student, if she can't even know the basics of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, it's useless.After taking out two taels of silver, the expression on the lady boss's face became colorful and beautiful as she collected the money. She thought to herself that this girl had no money?There are so many and I have talked to myself for a penny for a long time, how stingy.

In fact, Yun Shilei and Aunt Tian had inquired about the current prices as early as last night, 1 tael of gold = RMB 2000 = 10 taels of silver 1 tael of silver = RMB 200 = 1000 pennies = 1 guan (hanging) penny 1 penny = RMB 0.Speaking of which, the prices in this era are not very high, just about the same as now.

The proprietress took out one tael of silver and another nine hundred and five copper coins to Yun Shilei and said, "Check it out, right?"

Yun Shilei put the money in her arms, thinking to herself for a while that she must buy cloth and go home to make a purse, otherwise she would cry if such a heavy thing was accidentally lost.
