C8 Buy and Buy like a Swarm of Bees
"My wife, are you feeling sorry for me?" If he wasn't tired, what kind of road had he not walked through when he grew up in the mountains? Besides, this road had been built before, and it was much flatter. Wife, I'm going to start running now. Sit tight. "
After Xiao Yiming said this, he started running like the wind.
Luo Mannmann held the basket, afraid that the two baskets would fall down, "Yiming, slow down, I'm afraid …" Actually, she was afraid that he would be too tired.
"Alright, my wife, it's about time. We'll be in town in half an hour."
It was not easy at all. The ravine was very remote. It would take at least an hour and a half to get to a town. It would take less than two hours for an ox-cart to arrive.
"Yiming, why don't we ride in the ox-cart next time?" Luo Mannmann suggested.
"No, daughter-in-law, this ox-cart is not cheap. We need to spend 12 coins to buy it. This can save us a lot of money."
Xiao Yiming picked up the towel hanging around his neck and wiped off his sweat. Then, he started to quicken his pace and turned around, "My wife, do you think I'm walking too slowly?"
Luo Mannmann panicked when she heard that. "I'm just afraid that you'll be tired. Don't think too much about it."
"Hehe, so my wife loves me dearly. I'm not tired." The two chatted and laughed, and soon reached the Stone Dragon Town.
At this time, the white light of the fish at the edge of the sky had already disappeared. The sky was bright and the sun was rising from the east, releasing a pink red light.
The hazy outline of the old town began to become clear, and the cold streets began to become lively. People began to gather on the streets paved with limestone, and there were booths on both sides of the streets.
Xiao Yiming pulled the flatbed to a stop at the pork stand by the bridge. "Yiming, why are you so late?" the pork vendor called. Having a wife is different. "
With an ambiguous smile, he chuckled.
"Zhu Xiaokang, your business is pretty good today. You've sold so much already." Look at this big piece of pork, it's obviously missing a corner.
Of course, Zhu Xiaokang was a pork dealer in the neighboring village. Usually, in these 13 villages in the mountain, those who raised pigs would get Zhu Xiaokang to kill them and then negotiate a good price to bring them away.
Zhu Xiaokang was thirty years old, and he had two kids in his family. He was a loyal man and a joker, and he was a good person. His family's income was stable, and he had a stable source of income for the long term.
Xiao Yiming was very familiar with him. Every time he went into the town, he would park the flatcar beside his stall for supervision.
"Yeah, today's business is pretty good. Yiming, I have left you a few ribs. When you go back, take them with you to supplement your sister-in-law." Zhu Xiaokang began to return to his normal form and said generously.
"How can I be embarrassed? You sell it first. "Kang, it's getting late, I won't be keeping up with your family's business, I need to hurry and find a stall."
Xiao Yiming took out a basket as he said this. Seeing that Luo Mannmann was about to pick up the other basket, he said, "Wifey, let's sell the groceries first. We'll take them later."
"Oh." Luo Mannmann awkwardly retracted her hand, smiled at Zhu Xiaokang and followed behind Xiao Yiming.
"This Xiao Yiming's wife is a bit interesting. It seems like she has grown a bit more. It seems like Brother Xiao did not treat his wife badly."
As the two of them walked on the street, the rows of shops on both sides of the street were also open. Luo Mannmann didn't forget to admire the bustling ancient market when she followed behind Xiao Yiming.
This town was quite large. The two of them walked through a street and finally found an empty booth to settle down.
"Wifey, let's do it here. I came a bit late today and there aren't any good seats left." Xiao Yiming took out a woven bag from the basket and laid it on the ground, then he poured out all the little Wood products from the basket.
Small wooden spoons, wooden shovels, wooden bowls, wooden combs, wooden seasoning boxes... Scattered around a pile.
The moment Xiao Yiming arrived, he took out another woven bag and spread it on the ground before sitting down. He waved at Luo Mannmann and said, "Wife, stop standing there, come sit."
"I'm not tired, take a seat." Luo Mannmann looked around at the nearby booths. Which family didn't have a table neatly placed there? If it was placed like Xiao Yiming, then the prices of the goods would drop.
The funniest thing was the one selling cabbage next to Xiao Yiming …
The hawker nearby did his best to shout, "The vegetables have been sold! Fresh Chinese cabbage has been picked from the fields this morning! They don't taste good or they don't want money! One catty, two catties, eight catties! Hurry up and buy them!"
"Sugar gourd, crispy and delicious, a string of three words."
Luo Mannmann watched on as she set up her stall. There was no one who didn't holler at her.
"Yiming, why aren't you shouting?" Luo Mannmann tried to figure out how to sell these things.
"Wifey, this isn't something to eat. What's with that voice, is it tired? "Sit down. When we close up, I'll take you to the clothing store to buy some clothes." Xiao Yiming smiled brilliantly. Earning money was for his wife to spend.
Luo Mannmann's heart turned sour. Just as she was about to speak, she saw an aunt carrying a vegetable basket sitting down at the stall. "Young man, how many spoons of rice are there?"
"Auntie, it's not expensive. It's only five coins." Xiao Yiming smiled honestly.
"This one costs five pieces of gold. It's a bit expensive, and the style isn't that good either?"
"How about this, I'll give you less …"
"Hey, big sis, where's the rice spoon? Are there many family members? " Luo Mannmann couldn't help but interrupt.
How cheap was that, thinking about how Xiao Yiming had to work so hard with his hands.
Luo Mannmann's eyes flashed with pain, with that kind of attitude, she let go of those Wood products, and let me do it.
"Who is this young lady?" The aunt was dressed in dark red clothes with a simple style.
"Aunt, this is my wife." Xiao Yiming answered.
"My daughter-in-law really knows how to talk. I'm already in my fifties, and she still calls me Big Sis?" The aunt laughed so much that she bared her fangs and brandished her claws.
It seemed that this woman was the same in both ancient and modern times. She loved to be beautiful and listen to good words. Wasn't this too simple?
The clothes were clean and tidy. It was obvious that she was from a well-off family.
Luo Mannmann laughed familiarly, "No way, big sister. Even if you didn't say it, I would have thought that you weren't even forty years old. "You're too young. Oh, right. Big Sis, this rice spoon is very practical. The edges are polished and smooth, and all of them are handmade. Wuwen is already very cheap."
"This, but I still think it's expensive?" The aunt stammered in embarrassment.
"How about this, auntie, a wooden bowl, a rice spoon, two small wooden spoons, a wooden spatula, a seasoning, it just so happens to be a whole set in the kitchen. Originally, six dishes would have cost 42 words.
The eldest young mistress hesitated for a while, but she couldn't resist Luo Mannmann's enthusiasm. She gritted her teeth and said, "Sure, I'll take all of it just for the sake of your wife. Anyway, we have a lot of family members to use."
"Alright, elder sister is too straightforward. I'll help you put it in the vegetable basket."
"Young wife, this is 36 gold coins, you can count it." The aunt took out a pile of coins from her purse and handed it over.
Luo Mannmann took the copper coin and threw it to Xiao Yiming with a smile, "What are you counting so much for? Look at how realistic Big Sis is is, she definitely won't miss me."
Just a moment ago, when this aunt was counting the money, she had already measured the copper coin with her eyes.
"Ai, your little daughter-in-law really knows how to speak. Auntie will come visit you next time."
"Alright, elder sister, take care. It's good that you use it, come back next time." Luo Mannmann watched as Xiao Yiming glared at her with his mouth wide open.
"What's wrong, Yiming, did I sell myself for too little?" Luo Mannmann rubbed her head, a little embarrassed.
"It's not my daughter-in-law. You're too amazing. You can sell six of them in one go. Normally, I can only charge 25 gold coins for these. How could you sell them so many?"
Did he find a treasure? He didn't think that his usually shy daughter-in-law would be so good at talking. She made him so moved that he wanted to take out a copper coin to buy something.
"Seeing how hard it is for you to do these kinds of wood chores, coupled with the fact that you've already done very well, I'm not willing to sell it at a low price." Luo Mannmann pursed her lips and smiled. She crouched down and sorted the Wood products into different categories.
During this time, she stopped at another two people. Luo Mannmann saw someone approaching her and shouted in a clear and melodious voice, "Don't miss out on people who pass by, eating three treasures only requires 15 cents, eating six coins in the kitchen only requires 36 cents, and buying all the necessities in the house. Come and take a look, it's not practical and not expensive."
Although Luo Mannmann had an unremarkable appearance and was dark and thin, her voice was loud and crisp. Originally, she was just passing by to take a look at the people at the booths. Someone began to ask curiously, "Little girl, what is eating three treasures? It sounds so fresh."
"Uh, this is the Three Treasures of Eating." Luo Mannmann scooped up a spoonful and a spoon into a small wooden bowl, then naughtily waved them.
"The trees have a natural woody fragrance to them, coupled with the rice, the food is delicious." Luo Mannmann explained, her face beaming with joy.
"How much?" It's all right for the children. " Some women asked, this small wooden bowl is also exquisite, it is good for the child at home to use, because the child uses the porcelain bowl easy to break.
"Six words for one set only costs 15 words. It's for the best. Big Sis, come on. "
"There's no need to be so expensive for a porcelain bowl. You're selling it for too much …" The woman hesitated.
Luo Mannmann didn't explain, because she noticed that people were looking in their direction. Her small mouth hurriedly matched the crisp phrases, and along with her lively expression, she shouted, "Eating three treasures, kitchen six treasures, household items, cheap selling, come and take a look …"
Hearing these new words made the passersby feel refreshed. Most people liked to join in the fun. If one or two people joined in, five or six would join in.
Many people started talking at once, "Little girl, how much is this for?"
"Young daughter-in-law, what are these called?" The crowd included both men and women, both young and old.
The two women searched for a long time, but couldn't find anything. Luo Mannmann's black eyes looked around and found the body of a young man.
"Big brother, buy a kitchen set of six items. Just look at the exquisite workmanship, we don't need 50 or 40 coins right now, as long as it's 36 coins, it's worth a lot. Take it home and this woman will definitely praise you. They say you will live and buy things. "
