In front of the walnut stall, Dong Xuebin stretched his neck and watched quietly.
The stall owner shouted: "This year's big chicken hearts are good, let's bet on a pair."
Someone took a pair and said, "I'll give you a pair, these two."
"Okay." The proprietress with a Northeastern accent next to her took the 200 yuan and threw it into a plastic basket. Then she dug skillfully with a knife, quickly peeling off most of the skin and flesh on the surface of the green-skinned walnuts, and finally picked them up.
I picked up a brush and rinsed the water in a white plastic bucket to remove the pulp from the gaps in the walnuts. Finally, I took a caliper to measure it. The landlady regretfully said: "There is a bit of vaginal skin, one is 37 and one is 39. It doesn't fit the size."
It is relatively average, and it needs to be at least 42mm before it is so-so. The skin is a flaw, and the value of walnuts with skin or other defects will be greatly reduced even if they are larger in size.
Upon hearing this, the buyer turned around and left speechlessly.
Later, someone bought a pair of lion-head green leather ones, and the results were 39mm and 41mm respectively, which was not ideal either.
Then the next person drives 36mm and 38mm.
The next ones are 40mm and 39mm, so I guess they match up.
Seeing this situation, Dong Xuebin immediately gave up the idea of betting on walnuts. No, there are so many green leathers that are not even above 42mm. The chance of 46mm is even smaller. Even if he is possessed by the goddess of luck, there is no chance.
Ah, what a waste of money!
But he wouldn't be willing to give up just like that.
ten minutes……
half an hour……
One hour……
Dong Xuebin stood in front of the stall for two hours, watching the green skin grow less and less.
There were less than 30 of the more than 100 lion-headed green skins left, and a basket of large chicken hearts was sold out. The boss later brought out a new basket from the back. However, with such a large turnover, Dong Xuebin
I haven't seen any lion heads above 44mm yet. The 43.8mm one is the largest. After the water evaporates from the hands and the walnuts shrink, the 43.8mm one will end up being 43mm at most.
too small!
They are all too small!
At noon, I bought a McFragrant Chicken Burger set meal at KFC outside, and after finishing it, I came back here to stare at it.
Ten...
Twenty...
Fifty...
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Dong Xuebin was exhausted. Not only his eyes were dazzled, but his legs were also numb.
At this time, the business was much less, and the boss in the Northeast had to take a breath. The wife of the boss glanced at Dong Xuebin and said with a strange expression: "Young man, let's have a bet?" She had noticed Dong Xuebin since the morning.
I've been looking here for seven or eight hours, but I haven't bought anything.
Dong Xuebin thought about it and shook his head.
Someone just bet on a 44.7mm one, but it is still far from Dong Xuebin’s 46mm.
Alas, the chance is indeed too small, shall we go back?
It was getting late, so Dong Xuebin decided to leave after watching the last couple.
"How do you sell the lion's head on a low pile?" At this time, a middle-aged man with a burly stature, about the same size as a pile, squatted in front of the walnut basket.
The stall owner said: "Panshan lion heads are usually priced at 400 pairs. The larger ones are more expensive. There are 600 and 1,000 pairs."
There were not many lion heads left in the basket. The big man stretched out his long arms to pick it up. Finally, he took out two mottled pieces of green leather that were slightly rotten and yellowed from the left side. He threw them to the boss and said, "That's it."
"Here, open it!" The yellowing is due to the tree being planted for too long. Even if it is stored in the refrigerator, it cannot keep the green color for too long, but it does not affect the quality of the walnuts.
"The big ones cost 800 yuan."
The big man gave him money and said, "Let's drive!"
"Okay." The boss pinched the green skin, touched the knife with his dark hand, and began to peel it skillfully.
The first low pile lion head soon appeared in front of a few people - 43.3mm, just fine.
The big man was quite satisfied and nodded, "Keep going! See if you can match it!"
The boss grabbed the second piece of green skin and slashed it with force.
One knife...
Two swords...
Three swords...
"Hey! Look, look, look! This walnut..."
"Oh! This is incredible!" The crowd watching the excitement around them exclaimed.
Dong Xuebin was also stunned, staring closely at the half-opened green leather. Although he didn't use a ruler to measure it, he could tell from a quick glance that the lion's head inside... was quite big!
The boss made a sound and did not continue driving. Instead, he took the caliper and turned it sideways. Finally, he looked at the boss's wife in surprise, "Nearly 47 millimeters, 46.8!"
Dong Xuebin's brain suddenly became hot, what? 46.8mm? If you retract your upper hand in the future, you can also have 46mm!
Damn it! Isn’t this exactly the walnut I was looking for? It really came out!!
"Hello, I would like to ask." Dong Xuebin was afraid of being overtaken by others, so he looked at the big man hurriedly and said: "Do you want to sell these four six lion heads? Can you give me a price?"
The big man laughed loudly, "If you don't want to sell it, you won't sell it! Of course you should keep such a good thing for your collection!"
Dong Xuebin quickly said: "A collection that is not worthy of my wife is not beautiful either. Look..."
"I said I won't sell it!" The big man waved his hand and said to the boss with a smile: "Keep going!"
How to do how to do?
After the great joy and great sorrow, Dong Xuebin was extremely entangled. This is a rare opportunity. If he misses it...
By the way! Dizzy! How could I forget it!
back!!
My head was dizzy and the picture suddenly changed!
“How to sell a low pile of lion heads?”
"Panshan lion heads usually cost 400 pairs per pair, but the larger ones are more expensive, with 600 or 1,000 pieces available."
The big man stretched out his hand and grabbed the two big green men on the left!
Dong Xuebin hurriedly leaned over, and with quick eyesight and hands, he grabbed the two rotten green-skinned fruits on the side before the big man could reach them. "I want these two! Boss! Please open them!" Dong Xuebin just made the selection.
I noticed that these two have more severe skin rot, so they are very easy to identify.
The big man frowned and looked at him. He thought to himself, "Why are you so excited?" He turned his hand away and grabbed the other two.
The boss looked at Dong Xuebin's hand and said, "Eight hundred."
Dong Xuebin paid the money without saying a word, his heart pounding.
Don’t have vaginal skin! Don’t have bug eyes! Please! Please!
The knife has already fallen on the first green skin.
one time……
Two times...
Three times...
After a while, under the surprised and envious gazes of the people around him, the lion's head appeared!
No blemishes! No vaginal skin!
46.8mm!!
The big man curled his lips jealously, he was so lucky!
The boss and his wife were both shocked. This young man from Dark Elbow is really amazing. He didn’t take any action from morning to afternoon, but the result was a 46mm! Could he know how to read green skin? Impossible! He did this to himself
After many years of walnut trading, I still don’t quite understand it!
Holding the big lion head, Dong Xuebin took a deep breath in ecstasy!
