Chapter 52 Distressed (Please collect and recommend tickets~)

Worried that the old lady Zhou would bump into her in the dark after the sky darkened, Liu Su took out the candle and lit it, then walked out of the main room silently, and waved to Jiang Miao and others who were guarding the gate of the courtyard, ready to arrange them to go to the kitchen for dinner.

It's okay for adults, but children have to eat.

Jiang Yun subconsciously glanced back at the bridgehead, and was about to look back when he saw a few figures walking towards the bridge under the shade of the trees.

Jiang Yun paused, staring wide-eyed, waiting for those figures to pass by the bridge...

After seeing the familiar figure, he said pleasantly, "It's back! Fourth Uncle and the others are back!"

……

After being chased away by Baoantang Yaotong, the group walked through several drugstores.

I heard that they supplied Baoantang before, but there are really some pharmacies willing to accept their tangerine-stuffed kudzu root powder.

Although this product has not been out for a long time, and it is not sold much in the local area, I heard that the tangerine-stuffed kudzu root powder sent by Baoan Tang to the state capital for sale is very popular with the wives of wealthy families.

Now the people in the security hall are torn apart, and they probably don't care about the small matter of stuffing kudzu powder with oranges, but they can take the opportunity to make a small profit, provided that they earn at a low price!
As a result, the price of kudzu root powder stuffed with tangerine, which was originally two cents a penny, was reduced to a penny a penny or even two pennies.

A group of people walked around, and finally sold them to the family who offered one penny and one penny for two cents and three pennies. Some of the smaller ones were given away for nothing.

"It's too dark!" Zhou Qiao couldn't help but say, this is equivalent to selling one and getting two for free!

But Baoantang doesn't accept their goods, and the prices of other pharmacies are lower than the other ones. Otherwise, would it be difficult to pick them back the same way?

After all, the kudzu root powder is nothing more than free money for most villagers, and it is just a bit of effort. During the slack season, the most important thing for farmers is strength.

When there are one or two willing to sell, the others will not be able to persist.

No matter how unwilling Jiang Yang was, he could only sell it.

It is much more difficult to count two pennies and three coins. Jiang Yang counted three in a pile for a long time.

Fortunately, Jiang Yun can memorize Jiujiuge, and knows how to disassemble it cleverly, so he figured it out quickly.

"Except for the free ones, 510 tangerine-stuffed kudzu root powder, 170 Wen." Jiang Yun said this number, feeling distressed and wanted to cry.

The ones that were supposed to sell for [-] Wen, plus the slightly smaller ones, are more than that.

Now... It's not as good as old man Jiang's income.

Old man Jiang and Jiang Bai each sold a load of firewood for a total of seventy coins.

When Jiang Yang and the others were looking for medicine shops, the father and son set up stalls on the street to sell wild mushrooms and bamboo baskets. Dried wild mushrooms sold for 65 yuan per catty, a total of more than three catties, and sold for [-] yuan. The newly picked fresh mountain mushrooms cost ten Wen per catty, a total of more than four catties, and sold for forty Wen, and three bamboo baskets were also sold, for a total of Thirty Wen.

Calculated in this way, it is 35 Wen more than the orange stuffed kudzu root powder.

Hearing this result, everyone was disheartened.

Although the kudzu root can only be dug for such a period of time, if it is sold at the previous price until the Spring Festival, it will still be a considerable income.

But now it's obviously impossible to sell.

When I think about those money, I can't stop feeling distressed...

"It's not for sale anymore, if you want to make something, you can make something for yourself." Mrs. Zhou said directly.

"But..." Jiang Yang was a little reconciled, and Mrs. Zhou glared at him directly, "The shopkeeper Cao introduced by Mr. Su in the past, but now he is gone, which one of those pharmacies that are looting is reliable? I will send you to prison later. go in!"

In most small matters, Mrs. Zhou followed her children to toss, but once she made a decision on some matters, no one in the family could oppose her.

Oh no, there is one.

Ginger Flower.

But Jiang Hua was married, so no one here resisted, including Jiang Yun.

Although it's a pity, she doesn't want her family to be in danger. With space, she doesn't believe that there is no other way to make money besides selling medicinal materials?
If it doesn't work, she will go to perform the broken boulder, one punch at a time, one punch at a time...

Jiang Yun shook his powerful fist: I really want to grow up quickly! ! !

Seeing that no one objected, Mrs. Zhou said with satisfaction: "Since wild mushrooms are selling well, Da Lang and Miao Niang will continue to go to the mountains to collect wild mushrooms tomorrow."

Although it may not be possible to have a good harvest every day, but anyway, it can be dried and dried, and it will be more if you save it.

Seeing that everyone was still looking downcast, Mrs. Zhou said angrily, "Why are you all looking downcast? Isn't 170 cash money? Thinking about last year, why don't you just have fun? Who will you show your downcast look?"

She can't bear others to be downcast.how?Will life get better if you sigh a few more times?

So Jiang Yang talked about Liu Su's embroidery again.

"Sister-in-law, the shopkeeper of the cloth shop said that there is someone in the town who wants to find an embroiderer with good embroidery skills to order a set of quilts. Let me ask you if you can accept this job, and you will pay five hundred yuan!"

Everyone's eyes lit up, and Mrs. Zhou was also surprised that Liu Su's craftsmanship was so valuable.

They didn't know how to do it, but Liu Su knew that the five hundred coins would not be easy to earn, and asked, "Do I have to go to the cloth village to do it, or can I take it home? If I take it home, how much do I need to mortgage?"

During this period, Liu Su also did one or two custom-made jobs, but they were all ordinary embroidery decorations or some handkerchiefs.

It's just because it is a custom-made job, and most of the materials are specified, so she needs to mortgage some money first, so as not to damage the fabric and embroidery thread.

But close-fitting items such as quilts are also large, so I'm afraid it won't be easy for the embroiderer to take them home and make them. Even if it is possible, the mortgage money may be quite a lot.

Sure enough, Jiang Yang nodded and said: "At first the shopkeeper refused, but I said my sister-in-law was in poor health and couldn't go out, so he let it go and said that I could take it home and make it, but I had to mortgage the usual money."

Everyone was surprised.

The usual money, that is one thousand Wen, if you want to earn five hundred, you have to spend a thousand Wen first...

Don't say that the family doesn't have so much money, even if they have, they don't dare to take it out. What if they don't admit it when they return to cloth village?
Jiang Yang also just conveyed it, although he was also very moved by the five hundred wen, if he had the usual money, he might encourage Liu Su to try it, but he didn't, so he didn't count.

And Liu Su naturally refused without hesitation.

Jiang Yang didn't force it, took out the wages for this embroidery, and handed over the fabric and needlework that Liu Su told him to buy.

Liu Su nodded in satisfaction after flipping through it and said, "I've thought of a few new tricks recently, and I'll make them for you to bring to the shopkeeper. Ask him if he will accept them. They should be worth more than the previous ones."

……

After the family finished talking, old man Jiang stood up first, "Okay, it's getting late, let's pack up and go to bed, we have to get up early tomorrow."

Jiang Yun and the others looked at each other: Get up early and eat meat buns, hehehe.

Mrs. Zhou called Jiang Yang to stop, and said: "Since shopkeeper Cao is Mr. Su's friend, you can go to Mr. Su's tomorrow morning and tell him."

Jiang Yang nodded silently.

When Mrs. Zhou saw him like this, she knew that he hadn't passed this hurdle in his heart.

"It's a kudzu root that was dug for nothing. It's a blessing to be able to sell it. Don't feel bad if you can't sell it."

After saying this, regardless of whether Jiang Yang listened to it or not, Mrs. Zhou went back to the house.

In the dark room, Mrs. Zhou didn't even bother to light a candle.

Lying on the bed, Mrs. Zhou clutched her heart and couldn't fall asleep: Those evil shopkeepers!So much money... I feel so sorry for her!
 See you tomorrow~
