Traveling through the famine years, the best old woman, I was gnawed into the richest man by my children and grandchildren Chapter 153 The whole family can't wear so many clothes
Chapter 153 The whole family can't wear so many clothes
The stall owner fumbled with his hand and took out the pole, then tied the basket on after a long while.
"Then, um, eldest, is your eldest mother's house far away?"
Lin Tao thought, if he was asked to go to Gongjiazhai, would the stall owner sit on the ground and cry?
During this meal, the stall owner became anxious again: "My aunt's family is in the town, right?"
That pitiful look made Lin Tao laugh: "If I don't let you pick it home, just help me pick it and sell the cloth clothes."
"Hahahaha." The stall owner's gloomy face suddenly cleared up. "Good luck!"
As soon as he picked up the burden, he followed him to the place where the cloth was sold.
The cloth selling area in the market was so bleak that there were only two stalls. And there was not even a single person shopping in the entire place.
This is during the day. If it were at night, this gloomy and miserable scene would probably scare people to death.
"My wife has a stall here?" the stall owner asked.
"No, I'm stopping by to buy some clothes, bedding and stuff."
"Ouch! I really didn't realize that my aunt is really good at running a house."
It sounded like she, Lin Tao, had taken advantage of him. Lin Tao didn't answer the question.
I don’t know if the stall owner realized that he had said something wrong. As soon as Lin Tao stopped in front of a stall, the stall owner put down his burden, said goodbye with an awkward smile and left.
"What do you need, ma'am? These are the good stuff that just arrived not long ago." As he said that, the vendor took out a piece of cloth.
The clear color is a color often chosen by readers.
Lin Tao was also a little embarrassed. She was dressed in patches. She looked like she had money to buy cloth?
"Brother, I don't want to buy cloth. I want to ask if you have any old clothes for winter? Something thicker."
"Oh, this is a coincidence, isn't it? Look at this, ma'am." As he said that, the younger brother dug out some thick cloth clothes that had turned white and yellowed from under the pile of old clothes.
Lin Tao picked it up and looked at it. Some of the slightly thicker clothes had marks that looked like they had been stained with blood but could not be washed away.
There is nothing to dislike about this. The origin of old clothes has its own origin.
Those with better origins are those who are pawns and sold when living people are in trouble.
It is normal for someone to come from a bad place, from a pile of dead people, or from digging up graves and digging up corpses.
Especially in such a famine year, many people who starved to death went into the pit naked.
After all, a piece of clothing may be exchanged for some food!
The younger brother thought she cared about the mark on the clothes: "Mom, the old clothes were naturally worn by others. If you mind, you can take a look at my new clothes."
"It's okay, I just want to see if these clothes are thick enough." Lin Tao said.
"This winter, it may not even rain. Why do you think of buying thick clothes?"
Lin Tao raised her eyebrows and looked at her, no wonder she was doing business alone at such a young age, so her words were being tricked both inside and outside.
"My son is not in good health. He should be thicker to avoid getting sick."
"Yes, yes, there is such a love for parents in this world! To have such a loving mother like my aunt is a blessing that takes several lifetimes to cultivate."
Lin Tao looked at this one and picked that one, and most of them were quite satisfied.
"Brother, are all your old clothes here?"
The vendor boy nodded and asked hurriedly: "What's the matter? Doesn't the lady like it?"
Lin Tao didn't answer and asked again: "Brother, do you sell bedding here?"
"Ouch! Look what a coincidence, isn't it! Yes! There are exactly ten beds." As he said this, he took him out of a shack behind him.
"Are they all old?" Lin Tao asked.
"Yes, we can't sell newly made mattresses in this market, right?" After saying that, the younger brother hurriedly added: "But don't worry, aunt, these are from a good source. It turns out that Yuan Li's family made new mattresses.
The old things that came down were not taken from the graveyard."
Lin Tao nodded, indicating that she understood.
"Brother, it's hard to sell your clothes these days, right?" She looked at the bedding as if doing her usual business.
Perhaps when he got to the point of pain, the younger brother let out a long sigh and said, "To be honest with you, our neighborhood is the worst. People don't even care about it. How can there be any extra money to buy clothes?"
"I thought that when winter comes and it gets colder, someone will have to put on more clothes to keep out the cold! God doesn't like me, because the sun is shining on me every day. Not only is it not cold, but it's even hotter if I wear thick clothes."
"Then do you think this is the case? I will give you a hundred liters of bean sprouts in exchange for the clothes and bedding on your stall."
Just now she roughly ordered, there were about eighty or ninety pieces of light clothes, about twenty pieces of thick clothes, plus ten quilts and some old cloth shoes.
The used single clothes she bought before cost three yuan a piece. If she bought ninety pieces at this price, it would cost two hundred and seventy yuan.
There are thick clothes with several layers of cloth in the middle. It doesn't cost ten cents, so it's probably impossible to talk about it. Twenty pieces, that's two hundred.
Coupled with the bedding, this thing is more expensive than clothes.
Why didn't the little brother sell it at the stall? He was probably afraid that someone would steal it, so he hid it in the shack where he slept.
I guess I don't have thirty or fifty cents, so I can't get it.
For ten beds, it would cost 300 to 500 yuan.
These items alone cost almost 700 yuan. And those cloth shoes!
Her basket of bougainvillea cost only 500 yuan.
The vendor boy didn't seem to react, he was stunned on the spot and didn't answer the question.
"What? Are you still afraid that I will trick you? I can do business alone at a young age, so I am naturally smart. Think about it, what everyone is most in need of now is food, and food is naturally better than your clothes.
Sold."
The vendor boy nodded.
Lin Tao added: "Look at the current price of grain. A liter of bean sprouts can be sold for thirty cents. I tell you the truth, my beetroot is infested with worms, but if it sells for ten cents a liter, let alone leftovers.
I guess if you shout, I can grab them all in an instant."
"One hundred liters can be sold for one thousand! Can I buy your clothes?"
"You can buy it." The little brother nodded.
"Besides, what I'm doing is buying and selling clothes, so I'm a human being! As a human being, I have to eat food. If you say you sold your clothes, don't you have to buy food? If you do the math over and over again, I think
Can it be exchanged for money?"
The street vendor's eyes were already bright. For someone with a quick mind, how could he not know which business is easy to do?
"Okay! I'll wrap these clothes up for the aunt."
"Don't worry, little brother, let's take a look at my Shu first. If you think it's not good, I can go to another store and ask. Don't say that my Shu is not good in the future, causing you to lose money or something, it won't be good.
.”
"Hey! I admire your temperament!"
After coming out of the stall, the boy opened the basket and looked through it, but he didn't say anything for a long time.
Lin Tao naturally knew that it would be difficult to sell insects of this magnitude in the market!
So he said: "I know it's hard to sell with so many insects. But if you think about it, it's because no one comes to the market, so it's hard to sell. Then why no one comes? Because the food here is
It’s expensive! Brother, you can pick out ten cents and eight pennies and there are not many opportunities to buy grain now.”
"Ouch! Should I say aunt or aunt? This is a good idea. It's worth it! It's worth it!"
The little brother simply wrapped up his clothes and sent them to Lin Tao at the gate of Fangshi.
Seeing the clothes that were almost filling the oxcart, Zhu Donghua was also confused.
While holding hands to carry the large bags of clothes to the car, he asked: "Brother, are you sure it was the lady named Lin who asked you to deliver them?"
"Sister-in-law, if this is sent to the wrong person, I will suffer a loss. My aunt said that your surname is Zhu and you are her eldest daughter-in-law, right?"
Zhu Donghua nodded, yes it was wrong, but where did my mother get so much money and buy so many clothes?
Besides, my family can’t wear so many clothes! This chapter has been completed!
