NOVEL NEXT Chapter 27 Su Qiumei makes money
Although the clothes on her body were made of the most ordinary linen, they had no patches.
This aunt often comes out to sell things and meets many people.
She saw that Su Qiumei didn't have the cowardly and shy look of a country girl who came to town and met strangers.
You can tell at a glance that he belongs to a country family with good family conditions.
"How do you sell these mushrooms?" Su Qiumei took a few dried mushrooms and looked at them carefully.
This woman's dried mushrooms are larger than theirs, and they are dried more.
"Thirty-five cents per catty, girl, do you want two catties? Take this back and soak it, then cook it. Can you eat a lot of meals?
It tastes great fried or stewed, with or without meat, and can be served with rice. "
The lady who sells dried mushrooms tries her best to introduce her own dried mushrooms:
"Look at it, it's quite big and it's been dried out enough."
The aunt also grabbed a few and handed them to Su Qiumei.
"Can it still be cheaper?" Su Qiumei just asked casually.
"If you want more, girl, at least three kilograms, my aunt will give you thirty cents per kilogram. What do you think?"
"I'll take a look."
Su Qiumei turned around and went to the next stall. What did the aunt at the back say?
She didn't even look back.
"How do you sell this?" Su Qiumei came to an old woman's stall again and asked.
The old woman saw that she was young and the clothes she wore were not patched.
When I looked at her dried mushrooms, there were no calluses on her palms. She must be a country girl who was pampered and raised at home.
He rolled his eyes and said, "Girl, my mushrooms are dried in the sun, and they are clean, without any sand or soil. The cheapest is forty cents per catty."
She smiled and said: "Would you like to buy a few kilograms and take it home? If the girl eats too much of these mushrooms, she will grow more juicy."
"Forty cents per catty is so expensive? I asked the family in front of me just now. They only sell it for thirty-five cents. Their mushrooms are bigger than yours." Su Qiumei tried to bargain.
The smile on the old woman's face dropped a lot, thinking that this girl is not stupid.
So: "Old lady, these mushrooms I picked were picked on the top of the mountain.
It has seen more sunlight than the mushrooms they picked, and the taste is not comparable to those of theirs..."
"What's the cheapest price you can sell?" Su Qiumei interrupted and continued to brag.
"Thirty-five cents per catty." The old woman stopped boasting.
Su Qiumei went to the next house.
The old lady had been squatting for a while, and no one came up to look at her dried mushrooms.
She stood up, stretched her neck, and looked over at Su Qiumei.
Soon, Su Qiumei frowned and returned to the old lady.
"Mom, their mushrooms are dried better than ours, and they are bigger than ours. They sell them for thirty cents, and some of them are even worse for twenty-eight cents."
"Then how much will ours cost? Twenty-five cents?" The old lady felt distressed. Compared with other people's prices, a pound of Shengsheng cost five cents less.
Su Qiumei thought for a moment: "Mom, there are those mushrooms displayed there, and ours is the worst.
If the price is not good enough, people might not come to our place, so we might as well find another place to sell it. "
"Where?"
The old lady asked, but her hands had already lifted the backpack.
In the Su family, the only person who can make the old lady obey is Su Qiumei.
"Go to a place where no one sells dried mushrooms."
Su Qiumei was looking for a place while walking, until she saw a piece of cloth fluttering in the wind hanging on a store with the word "wine" written on it, and she had an idea:
"Mom, is there a restaurant here? Let's take it and sell it there."
"Restaurant? Is that okay? Mushroom restaurants like us will take a fancy to it? I heard that the food there is the best.
How about someone go inside and eat two dishes that can support our family and provide us with enough food for a month? "
"Mom, how will you know if you don't try?" After speaking, he took the old lady's hand and quickened his pace: "Think about it, where is the restaurant probably?"
Su family.
As soon as the old lady and Su Qiumei went out, the rest of the family became more relaxed.
Mrs. Wang and Mr. Qian had already abandoned their work and went back to their houses to sleep.
Su Daya and Su Erya, carrying small baskets on their backs, were playing and digging for wild vegetables.
When they met Su Dafu and Su Dacai, the boys went up the tree to dig out bird eggs.
The two sisters seemed to have been opened up to new ideas and hurriedly ran in the opposite direction.
At home, the two sisters could only eat wild vegetables except for the mush they drank.
When the vegetables grown at home are cooked, they have to wait first for the old lady and sister-in-law. There are also a few men who have leftovers before it is their turn.
With so many people in the family, it is almost impossible to wait until those important people have leftovers.
The two sisters have long been greedy.
Now I finally discovered that there is a chance to satisfy my craving, if I go with the boys.
I don't care about them then, no matter what delicious food they make, or how much they get? They would all be robbed by Su Dafu and the Su Dacai brothers.
If you dare to complain when you get home, you might even get scolded by the adults.
Children who grew up in the village can climb trees, who can’t? If they can pocket a few, wouldn't they be in luck?
It's just that they thought more beautifully.
Not every tree has a bird's nest, and not every bird's nest has eggs waiting for them to dig out.
"Sister, what should I do?" I originally thought I could find at least a few bird eggs to satisfy my craving.
However, they looked for one tree after another, but none of them had a bird's nest on it.
In order to find the eggs, they had strayed away from the outskirts of the mountain forest. The deeper they went, the more birds they heard.
"It must be there. All the boys can find it. I don't believe we can't find it."
Su Daya didn't believe this evil, she kept looking up tree by tree.
Even when talking to Su Erya, his eyes never left those trees.
"That tree has a bird's nest." Suddenly, Su Daya pointed to one of the big trees.
"Where?"
When Su Daya said there was a bird's nest, Su Erya immediately jumped up from the ground and squinted along Su Daya's fingers.
"Really, sister, we can eat eggs this time." Su Erya ran towards the big tree excitedly.
"You keep an eye on these two backpacks down below, and I'll go up."
Inside the two backpacks was a small portion of the wild vegetables they dug. If they came out today and didn't get anything back, they would definitely be scolded by the old lady.
Seeing Su Erya nodding, she stood by the basket obediently.
Su Daya then climbed up the big tree pole with a thump thump thump.
"Sister, how many are there?"
When Su Erya saw Su Daya, she had climbed to the bird's nest. She was excited, anxious, and vaguely expecting, so she asked loudly under the tree.
Su Daya climbed up with a burning heart, but when she saw the bird's nest, her burning heart was suddenly poured out.
"Sister?" Su Erya, who was under the tree, couldn't hear Su Daya's response and called out again.
"There are no eggs, only two newly hatched chicks." They are still pink and pink, and not even fine hair has grown.
