"Let me ask you to charge six yuan a pound. It is not easy for you to deliver them. To be honest, these lobsters of yours came at the right time. I am short of lobsters!"
Su Ming never expected that this lobster could be sold for six yuan per catty. He always thought that three yuan per catty was already very good.
But what he actually didn't know was that if Lin Tongtong hadn't brought him here today, his lobsters would have been sold for three yuan a pound, which would be considered good.
As the saying goes, if you are in urgent need of medical treatment, his lobster is the cure in Liu Lu's shop. People are happy, so how can the price be not high?
Finally, we weighed them and found that there were 20 kilograms or less of half a kilogram of lobsters in total. However, because Su Ming's lobsters had been drained dry along the way, there was no moisture at all. Plus Lin Tongtong's introduction.
Liu Lu readily gave 150 and asked him to continue delivering it tomorrow.
This food city's store alone can easily digest a hundred kilograms of lobsters in a day. When business gets better in the future, more lobsters will definitely be digested.
And even if she can't eat so much here, other stores will definitely have it.
Su Ming nodded and indicated that they would continue to deliver it tomorrow. He looked at the banknotes in his hand. Although there were not many, to Su Ming at this time, this 150 yuan was like rain in a long drought and timely rain in the desert.
!
With it, tuition fees and living expenses are all covered.
Although the current price of lobsters is not as high as tens of yuan per catty as it was later, and some are even sold by the individual. However, the price of six yuan per catty is already quite high, and the price of pork is only about five or six yuan per catty.
Originally, Liu Lu wanted to treat the two of them to eat some snacks in the store before leaving.
But Su Ming disagreed. It was already past two o'clock in the afternoon, and he had to go back immediately and pick up Xueer from school before she got out of school.
Xue'er's condition is not good today. It would be bad if she walks home in a daze and something happens. What he is most afraid of now is that if Xue'er has another problem, then his life will really be in vain.
This is the second time.
Besides, Xueer would definitely be in a hurry if she didn't see him when she got home, so he had to rush to school to pick up Su Xue from school.
"How about I take you to the station?" Lin Tongtong asked softly when she saw Su Ming anxiously returning.
Su Ming refused because he was afraid that having too much contact with Lin Tongtong would lead to him having some inappropriate ideas.
At the moment, I can't even care about my life, and I don't have the qualifications to think about this matter for the time being, let alone in front of such an excellent Lin Tongtong.
Su Ming packed up a portion of roast chicken at a roast chicken restaurant at the entrance of the food city. He also bought some milk, snacks, large bubble gum, dog teeth, etc. for Su Xue. He bought a lot and put them all in the basket.
.
He had to take a total of three buses to get back to Dayuan Village from the food city.
It took more than two hours.
When I got home, it was already past four in the afternoon.
He was carrying two empty baskets and walking on the village road with a relaxed expression.
Many villagers also laughed at his idleness.
"Look at this Su Ming, he is really worried. Others are working and busy farming, but he is actually wandering on the road in broad daylight."
"Hahaha, I used to be a boss, and the boss always behaves like a boss, but looking at him, he feels a little happy, as if he has made money, right?"
"He already has lobster to eat tonight, so of course he should be happy and don't have to be hungry."
"What you said is too damaging. I feel sick when I think about someone being so despicable as to eat lobster."
"I saw him carrying a basket out just now. He must not be selling lobsters outside, right?"
"The lobster must not have been sold. I failed in my pretense and went to find someone to gamble."
Almost no one thinks that Su Ming can do serious things. They all think that Su Ming is just wasting time and not making progress.
But when Su Ming passed by them, the smell of roast chicken from his body made everyone's mouths salivate like crazy.
"It smells so good! What does this smell like? Whose roast chicken is so fragrant?" When the smell of roast chicken wafted into the noses of these country people, everyone became a little greedy, guessing who was roasting chicken.
.
In rural areas, in addition to braised chicken, everyone only eats plain-cut chicken. No one specializes in making roast chicken, and few even go out to buy it.
Ever since Su Ming set off for the provincial capital, Zhu Guiying was extremely curious.
She wanted to know whether Su Ming could sell these lobsters, and if so, what price they could fetch.
Every once in a while, she would come to the door, look around, and murmur: "If a pound can be sold for one yuan, then this bag can be sold for twenty yuan!"
But Zhu Guiying had no idea because no one had eaten lobster for so long. She was already prepared to see Su Ming come back carrying a bag of dead lobsters.
However, at this time in elementary school, Su Xue was being made things difficult for her by her classmates.
It turned out that when Li Qingfang called Su Ming to talk outside the classroom just this morning, a classmate happened to hear him.
For a time, you passed it to me and I passed it to you, and everyone began to pass Su Xue’s jokes.
Even people in the next class knew that there were classmates in their second grade who couldn't pay their tuition fees.
