Chapter 52 Business Opportunities at the Market

At the same time, the Zhao family in Bailangli Village.

Zhao Wenduo took out a bunch of chinchillas from the warehouse and froze them for several hours. They were not too soft and not too hard, making it easier to peel them. In more than two hours, except for the first two hands, they were peeled raw.

Except for the breach, the cover is completely intact.

I started working hard in the early morning. I went into the warehouse just before dawn and ran back and forth several times taking things in and taking them out.

He deliberately told her to take her time and not be too hasty. When she thought of the smelly face at the dinner table, no one said anything.

She said she had a bad dream last night, and I don't know what caused her little face to look tense all morning.

Eight or nine gray rats were skinned in one fell swoop, and the meat alone filled a whole pot. They couldn't eat a single meal, and they had to be taken outside to freeze. They were all bleeding.

Wrapped in a clean wrapper, you can eat as much as you like. Isn't it good? They have to be packed away.

There was a lot of slander in my belly, but not a single word came out of my mouth.

The things are brought back by others. When you put them in to freeze and when you take them out to eat, that's up to them. Others can't tell or teach you, so just don't waste your time talking about it.

Everyone in the family thinks so, but they can't bear to have an outsider living there now.

Bao Dongmei didn't know the truth. No one told her in detail. They just brushed it off. She just thought that these gray rats went up the mountain to chop firewood and picked up one and a half of other people's rats. So,

These people also saved for most of the winter to get this amount.

A dog's stomach can't hold even two ounces of sesame oil, but if there is some good stuff, it will all be emptied out in one breath. It doesn't know that the water is always flowing, so it is rare to eat.

She is a smart old lady with a lot of twists and turns in her belly. Although she despises her stepson's family who have not lived a good life and is like a small family who can't pretend to be good, she is cold-faced and arrogant.

The third girl looked down upon her even more, but she didn't show any emotion at all, and she even asked questions with a smile.

"I can't eat so much meat at once. If the meat has melted and is refrozen, it won't taste good. It's so tiring to pack so much at once, but it's light and refreshing to eat one and the other."

fresh."

He was both tired and tired, and it sounded like he cared about me and gave me some advice. But he was better at listening than speaking. In and out of his words, he was accusing me of not being able to work, wasting good things, and not knowing how to run a household.

For her, no one knows the principle of getting as much as you use, and it is not advisable to be extravagant and wasteful in any age.

There must be a reason for this.

At yesterday's market, Zhao Wenduo met the meat seller Yidao Liu. At that time, he was negotiating the price with two people. The pork at the stall in the supply and marketing cooperative was not enough to sell every day, and he accumulated dozens of pieces of pork in a few months.

Pigskin, these two are the second-tier dealers who have dealt with him.

One of them made a gesture and said: "I'll give you some leather at the original price."

Da Liu shook his head: "I heard that someone has come to collect leather goods recently, and the prices of all kinds of leather have increased. With the price you gave me, I can't get them all. Twenty pieces are still about the same."

The man was startled, as if he didn't expect the news to spread so quickly, and he was a little embarrassed for a moment and didn't catch the message.

The man next to him reacted quickly and continued with a smile: "Hey, those are foreigners who don't know the market and give random prices. Brother Liu, since you said it, okay, I'll raise the price a little bit more."

Mention. What do you think of this number?" He showed one hand and added two more fingers.

"This is a high price, we can't pay more." The man from before also came to his senses and helped his companion.

Da Liu lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, thinking carefully there, calculating whether the price was appropriate or not. After a moment, he stretched out three fingers and said: "At least add these, otherwise this time, forget it, I will find those from other places.

Guests are leaving."

"Hey, hello, brother! We've been friends for a long time, why are you looking for a visitor from out of town?" After a while, he said with a bite: "Okay, I'll pay the price you said. Second brother, pay for it."

After some haggling, the two parties finally concluded the sale.

Although Zhao Wenduo didn't know how much these pig skins were worth, looking at the number of gestures made by the three of them and the content of the conversation, it was not difficult to tell that the price was twice as much as usual.

If it hadn't been for such a huge increase, Master Liu wouldn't have renegotiated the price. Just because the other party was a long-term buyer, he wouldn't have proposed any changes to Xing Beng'er that never came and went.

After the three of them negotiated the deal, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Da Liu saw two girls, one big and one small, standing in front of him. The older one looked familiar. He had developed a habit of selling goods for many years and would take the initiative to strike up a conversation when he saw anyone stopping. The two girls were not tall.

He bent slightly and said with a smile: "Little girl, do you know us and listen so seriously?"

Those pig skins of his are just leftovers, and it's not illegal to exchange them for some money. Even if someone reports it, they can only pay two yuan at most, and it won't be a big deal. Nowadays, the trend is almost the same

It's over now, and no one with a smart mind will hold on to this issue any longer.

What's more, the two of them in front of me are not very old, and it hasn't been long since the younger one learned to speak clearly. The older one's eyes are clear, and he doesn't look like the bad boy full of evil ideas at all.

Zhao Wenduo did not intend to give up this opportunity to get gossip, so he took a step forward and said: "Master Liu, I have bought meat from you and I recognize you."

"Oh, why do you look familiar to me?" Da Liu, with deep smile lines on his fat face, said, "Then what's the matter with you? If you want to buy meat, you can't do it. All the meat is sold out today.

."

Whenever there is a big fair in the town, people from all the villages below come here from all directions. They usually don't want to eat or drink, but on this day they will spend 80 cents to buy some sweet candies.

The supply and marketing cooperative has a wide range of categories, and it is a must-go place. The meat stall in front of the 'Yidao Liu' is a hot spot. Half a fan of pork is placed on the table, and it is sold out within an hour. If the stall had not been closed early,

He would not go to the market to sell pig skins to others.

"Uncle, we don't buy pork. The pig we just killed yesterday has a lot of meat and can be eaten for a long time." When Zhao Wennan heard the other party asking if he was buying meat, his little head shook like a rattle. In her opinion,

, a piglet weighing more than a hundred pounds is already considered the biggest of the bunch. I have never seen so much meat. It will be enough to last until next year. It is impossible to spend money to buy it again.

The little girl has fluffy hair on her head, two loosely combed hair, and two round black glutinous rice balls shaking her head, soft and quivering slightly, and coupled with a tender childish voice, she looks very cute.

Da Liu originally loved children. Seeing the little girl being so affectionate, his heart softened. He even bent down to a half-squat, smiled at the little girl, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Hey, at home,

If the pig is killed, there will be a lot of braised pork to eat. Then, has the pig skin been boiled and frozen?"

Pi jelly is pig skin cut into thin strips, boiled over high heat to produce gelatin, and solidified into lumps after cooling. It tastes soft and chewy. It is a cold dish in local pig-killing cuisine.

The reason why Liu asked this question was to see if the two people standing here listening to him sell pig skins also wanted to exchange the pig skins at home for money.

During the twelfth lunar month, all the New Year pigs raised by families in the lower village should be killed. In order to get a few extra bucks, some families would sell part of the pork and the skin of the pig. The little girl said that the pigs had just been killed.

, the skin might be taken to the market and sold.

"No, the eldest sister said that you can cook the skin jelly for a while and practice lard for the next two days."

When Liu heard this, he thought this was not about selling pig skins, but planning to freeze the skins. Then why did the two of them stand here listening for a long time? They were just joining in the fun, are you curious? It's so interesting for three adults to sell things and negotiate prices?

His chubby face was full of doubts and confusion. He stood up and was about to say, "Then you start visiting the market. Let's go first."

The older girl asked in a clear voice: "Besides pig skin, do you want any other furs?"

Da Liu and the two brothers were both startled. The older brother came to his senses first and said, "Little girl, what kind of tricks do you have?"

Zhao Wenduo reported: "Eight or nine gray rats, five or six rabbits, two roe deer, and a dozen pheasant feathers."

"Yeah, there's quite a lot. How about you bring them all over first and let's take a look at them to see the quality and then negotiate the price?"

"Then what's the trouble? Just tell her how much it costs. It's almost the same, so she has an idea." Da Liu stopped her.

It is not easy to transport so many things in one trip. When the time comes, they will further lower the price, and the sellers will feel that they are losing money. If they don't sell, they will have to go back and transport them again, which will be very embarrassing.

The adults can understand the hidden meaning of the words spoken by three people, but two little girls of this age cannot understand it so well. Perhaps they can feel Liu's kindness, and the specific issues involved are unexpected.

So deep.

Fortunately, Zhao Wenduo Xinzi is an out-and-out adult and understands the truth that goods will die when they reach the ground. Da Liu has good intentions and does not want the two second-rate dealers across from him to deceive them because of their young age.

Originally, she just asked, but the information she heard before was actually enough. Those leathers were not sold to these two people at all. The price offered by the merchants from outside the customs was obviously higher, so why did she bother to pay for it with the second-hand dealer?

Talk, bargain.

When the two brothers collecting pig skins saw that Da Liu was trying to protect the two little girls, they gave up their thoughts of picking up bargains. They looked at each other and quoted the price range for each piece of skin.

.

What Erdao dealers earn is the price difference in the middle. Even if Da Liu is there to protect them from cutting too much, the prices they quote are still mixed with a lot of water. On the basis of these prices, at least 30% must be added.

, which is almost the purchase price of foreign merchants.

Zhao Wenduo made a rough calculation in his mind, and the more he added up, the brighter he became. If all of them were successfully sold, he could make a profit of less than a hundred yuan. This is a conservative estimate, and it is likely to be more.

No wonder these two people are competing for business, they are indeed very profitable.

Da Liu was worried that the two of them were young and could not find a buyer after bringing the leather, so he enthusiastically said that he could go to the meat stall to help contact him.

Regardless of whether it is these two brothers or other buyers, whoever offers the higher price will sell it to him. He does not ask for an introduction fee, it is purely to help, and he only sees the two girls getting along well and being affectionate.

On the way home, Zhao Wennan also said that the chubby uncle was so nice. Not only did he help us negotiate business, he also gave us delicious food. It would be great if we could meet more such good uncles next time we go shopping.

Already.

Before leaving, Da Liu took out two pieces of the cake he just bought. The little girl couldn't stop praising her after she ate it.

There is no risk of abduction in future generations, this is just pure goodwill and love.

It was precisely because of Da Liu's enthusiasm and his experience in dealing with people that Zhao Wenduo listed him as a partner for cooperation.

Master Liu's meat stall later became a sales station, where all the wild animals hunted from the mountains were taken and shipped. The two of them worked together seamlessly, supplying and retailing, and they made a lot of money.
