As usual, Luo Xuan set out at 3 or 4 o'clock and arrived at the market early.
This time, the Frog Market was located outside Luo Xuan's school, in the empty field in front of the Taoist Temple "Nanhua Palace".
Because I came too early.
It was still dark at this time, so the entire market relied on a few small fires in the distance to provide a little light.
Vaguely, Luo Xuan saw a few people standing sparsely around the courtyard dam and under the circle of big trees planted around the wall.
Luo Xuan also picked a big tree.
Then he put his hands behind his back, faced the big tree, and stood there quietly waiting for the buyer to come.
When I came to Frog Market today, I actually had nothing to sell.
Yesterday at the catering service club, I sold turtles and eels to Fatty Gu.
Now another batch of mushrooms can be picked in the space, so Luo Xuan is mainly here to sell mushrooms this time.
In addition, Luo Xuan wanted to see if he could sell some angler fish.
Luo Xuan came to the frog market this time mostly to understand the market and kill time.
After waiting until the time came and the supply and marketing cooperative purchasing station opened, Luo Xuan wanted to see if he could sell the big python and scorpion.
What if the Hongxing Township Purchasing Station refuses to accept it, or the purchasing price is too low.
Luo Xuan was going to go to the county town to try and see if he could sell them at a good price.
Although the prices of the supply and marketing cooperatives in the county and the supply and marketing cooperative purchasing station in Hongxing Township should be the same.
But there is another medicinal material company in the county. In this era, the price policies of different systems will be different.
Especially for things like pythons and snake gallbladders, the county's "price committee" is unable to set a unified price.
Luo Xuan felt that if he went to the county town, he would have one more choice after all, and maybe he would be able to make more money by selling it.
After standing facing the big tree for a while, Luo Xuan heard a low exclamation from behind him, "Little brother, what exactly are you selling?"
The voice sounded familiar.
It should be Liu Fugui, the person responsible for maintaining order in the market and in charge of weighing.
Luo turned his head and took a closer look, and it turned out to be him.
Liu Fugui pointed to the loquat leaves in Luo Xuan's hand and asked in confusion, "Little brother, you have been to this market several times, why don't you understand the rules here? You are holding a loquat leaf in your hand. This is
What to sell?
Loquat is a kind of fruit that blooms year after year and bears fruit year after year.
Luo Xuan held several mushrooms in his hand, which was enough to surprise Liu Fugui.
The loquat leaf in Luo Xuan's hand completely confused the well-informed Liu Fugui.
Now is not the time for loquats to go on sale!
Hearing Liu Fugui ask, Luo Xuan whispered two words: "Pipa."
"lute?"
Liu Fugui was stunned!
Immediately, I saw him grabbing Luo Xuan's arm and pulling him behind the big tree!
"Little brother, Pipa...fish?"
"Um."
"Live?"
"Jumping and bouncing."
"how many?"
"Twenty-six pieces, all weighing about 5 yuan."
Luo Xuan had already released the small frogfish in the mountain, so the ones left behind were all big ones.
When Liu Fugui heard this, his hands trembled with excitement, "You, you... don't coax me to play so early in the morning! How can you keep the angler fish from turning its belly?"
Luo Xuan smiled but said nothing.
"Oh, I shouldn't ask about this."
Liu Fugui approached Luo Xuan and whispered, "How much do you plan to sell one piece for?"
Luo Xuan asked, "How much do you bid?"
Liu Fugui pondered for a moment, "2 yuan 5?"
Luo Xuan said nothing.
Liu Fugui said: "Little brother, don't be so greedy. Although I can make a few cents by flipping a fish, I have to take risks, right? If a few of them die, I won't make much money."
"
Luo Xuan smiled slightly and said, "You can't die. I have water made from a secret formula to keep these angler fish alive."
Liu Fugui was overjoyed, "Is this really true?"
"real."
"Well, little brother, are you interested in going to the county town with me?"
Liu Fugui patted his chest and said, "I'll provide you with proof of travel and food stamps. Once I get rid of the goods in your hands and take out these expenses, can I only give you 2 cents for each fish?"
When Luo Xuan heard this, his heart couldn't help but move!
Listening to Liu Fugui's unambiguous tone, if these 26 angler fish were brought to the county town, the price should be quite good.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to encourage himself to go to the county town to sell.
As for Liu Fugui, he said he would take 2 cents a piece.
If we extrapolate the meaning behind his words, the market prices in that county must be much higher than those in Hongxing Township!
Otherwise, I would have worked so hard to go to the county town, and the price would be even lower than here.
When the time comes, he and Liu Fugui will definitely have a fight.
Liu Fuguier, who has been in this market for so many years, will not do things that harm others and harm himself, or damage his own brand.
Think of this.
Luo Xuan said to Liu Fugui: "That's okay. Let's leave for the county seat when the show ends here later. As for my travel certificate, you don't need to worry about it. I will figure out a way myself."
Liu Fugui chuckled, "Okay, little brother, we can even get travel certificates at any time. You have a lot of energy for activities."
With that said, Liu Fugui turned around and prepared to leave.
Luo Xuan raised the mushroom in his hand and shook it towards Liu Fugui, "I would like to ask, what price can a mushroom like mine be sold for?"
Liu Fugui stopped after hearing this, then turned back and picked up the mushroom in Luo Xuan's hand, and looked at it carefully.
He nodded and said: "Normally, a mushroom can be sold for 7 or 8 cents. However, this mushroom of yours is really good! It is big and fresh enough, so it will definitely sell for a good price. It is currently on the market.
There are no mushrooms. If you meet someone who wants to eat them, you can sell them for 1.5 yuan, or even 1.8 yuan."
After asking about the price, Luo Xuan had an idea in mind.
Just now, I didn't want Liu Fugui to get a [travel certificate] for me. Luo Xuan didn't want Liu Fugui to know his specific household registration information.
actually.
Even if Luo Xuan didn't tell him, Liu Fugui would naturally be able to find out everything about Luo Xuan.
But just like the girl in the next class, she takes the initiative to tell you her name, and you find out her name yourself, those are two different things.
Luo Xuan was secretly trying to keep a distance from Liu Fugui.
Through this move, Luo Xuan wanted Liu Fugui to understand one thing: we are just a temporary partner in a specific business.
Wait until Liu Fugui walks away.
After a while, two more customers came and bought 7 mushrooms from Luo Xuan.
Now I have 4 flowers left in my hand.
After a while, the rising sun finally tore away the cover of dark clouds, revealing a trace of dark red glow in the sky.
At this time.
A familiar figure appeared in the courtyard, and it turned out that it was Chen Xiaoduan who had also come to the market.
I saw her looking left and right, and finally found Luo Xuan under the big tree.
Chen Xiaoduan slowly approached and whispered to Luo Xuan: "You came so early."
As she said this, she took something out of her pocket and handed it to Luo Xuan: "Here, this is the money you sent to that old turtle last time.
It’s just that I don’t have any money to give you. These are some food stamps, so you should take them first! If there is not enough money, I will replenish it for you when the time comes.”
Luo Xuan shook his head, "That's what I owed you before, you don't need to give me any more money."
Chen Xiaoduan stuffed the food stamps in his hand into Luo Xuan's pocket without any explanation.
He said lightly: "There was no debt between us before. Yesterday you sent someone an old turtle. These food stamps can be regarded as part of the money to buy it. I will pay for the remaining balance as soon as possible."
It’s all paid to you.”
With that said, regardless of Luo Xuan's reaction, Chen Xiaoduan turned around and left.
Looking at Chen Xiaoduan's retreating figure, Luo Xuan knew in his heart: There was no point in chasing him.
This Chen Xiaoduan has an extraordinary background, and her family was definitely not ordinary before.
Her innate pride that permeates her bones will not allow her to bow to anyone.
Chen Xiaoduan will not accept mercy or charity from anyone...
never mind!
Luo Xuan secretly persuaded himself: She was a swan that fell to the ground because of a sudden change in the wind direction.
