Farmhouse vicious stepmother, she is super fierce

Chapter 99 In broad daylight, can't you grab something?

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Bai knocked on Shen Jiayan's door, urging her to hurry up.

Yesterday, they made an agreement with the family in the village that had an ox cart, and each of them would pay three big bucks to hire the ox cart to take them and the dried goods to the town.

The bullock cart is not big, and there are other people besides them. If they go late, there may not even be a place to sit.

Shen Jiayan tidied up everything last night. There were two big baskets, one filled with dried centipedes, and the other filled with various cloth bags.

Shen Jiayan is careful, every kind of wild mushrooms are packaged separately, and they have been screened in advance. Those that are damaged and not in good condition are all screened out by her, and kept for her own food. Only those in good condition are put in her pockets and taken away. Sell.

When we arrived under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, the ox cart was already waiting.

There were already people in the car, and Bai's and Quan's were also at the side of the ox cart, putting their things on the cart, and when they saw Shen Jiayan approaching, they hurriedly waved.

At the same time, he made room for her to put the back basket, and squeezed out a place between the two of them for her to sit down.

Because of the goods, the bullock cart could not carry a few people. Seeing that the seats were full, the man driving the bullock cart yelled, raised his whip and set off.

It was only dawn at this time of day, and the women sitting in the car were all women from the village. After a few words of pleasantries, they began to take out breakfast from their arms to eat.

Woke up too early, afraid of delaying time, everyone brought breakfast, some steamed buns left over from last night, some pancakes baked in the morning, and some vegetable steamed buns.

If you are more particular, you can also bring a bamboo tube of hot water; if you want to be more convenient, you can take cold water directly from the water tank, and drink water while eating steamed buns. If you can eat enough, there is nothing to choose.

The family is more difficult, not only can't bear to spend money to ride an ox cart, but also rely on their feet to walk to the town, let alone have breakfast. For lunch, save a meal.

After breakfast with the cool mountain breeze in the morning, a group of women will not keep their mouths shut and gossip.

Recently, everyone in the village is busy, and there is not much gossip. What everyone cares about is the price of wild mountain mushrooms this year, and the topic naturally cannot avoid this.

Some women are happy that this year's harvest is more than in previous years, and they can sell dozens of big money more, and they can also cut some meat to go back to the family for teething sacrifices.

There are also women with that experience who are worried, saying that thanks to the good weather and good weather this year, the harvest of fungus is more than usual, and they are afraid that those traders from other places will take the opportunity to lower the price.

This was not the case in previous years.

As soon as these words came out, the women who were happy at first suddenly became worried again.

As soon as Shen Jiayan heard the story here, she inquired in a low voice with the Bai family and the Quan family on the side, only to find out that the villagers from all over the world in Sifang town picked mountain products and sold them to the town, mostly to take advantage of the market. when.

Sell ​​to wealthy families in the town or in restaurants in the town.

Only in spring and autumn, vendors from other places will come to the town to buy all kinds of mountain delicacies.

The first half of the year is basically at this time, buying all kinds of mushrooms.

In the second half of the year, there are dried mushrooms and all kinds of wild game.

These foreign traders demanded a lot, and the price was not high. The most exasperating thing was that they combined the purchases from wealthy families and restaurants to lower the prices together.

The dealers have no connections, even if they know that the price has been lowered, they have no place to appeal for grievances, and after going around, they still have to sell it to traders from other places.

They didn't know it at first, but they sold it honestly after seeing that the vendors all offered the same price.

It was because some people in the village went to the county seat and knew that the price in the county seat was more than double that of the town, so they knew that they had been cheated.

They are all ordinary people, knowing that they have been cheated, they can only bear it.

Whoever let them have no way, they have never traveled far, and it would be good to be able to go to the town. Most of them have never been to the county town in their lives, and they have no courage to sell things there.

Some people want to argue with these peddlers, and those peddlers are not afraid. They said bluntly, it is not so easy to sell to the county town. You have to pay for the travel expenses. ?It's better to sell it to them cheaply, so that they can get the money in a down-to-earth manner.

Those who have never been out and don't know, are so coaxed and frightened, they dare not ask any more questions.

Based on what they know about those vendors, I'm afraid that this year they will suppress their prices because the output is too much and worthless.

Speaking of this, Quan's and Bai's couldn't be happier.

Originally a happy morning, the goods were about to be sold, and the joy of receiving the money was also compromised.

Shen Jiayan didn't know that these vendors were so deceitful and frightening. If this was the case, then could it be that the mountain products and medicinal materials she sold in the county last time were sold to ghosts?
It can be seen that these traders are too dark-hearted.

In this case, it is even more impossible to sell these mountain products in the town.

After thinking about it, he inquired about the sale of centipedes. He knew that the centipedes in the nearby village had been sold to the only medical clinic in the town. The old doctor, his family was always fair, but he never cheated anyone.

This made Shen Jiayan feel relieved.

When I arrived in the town, sure enough, the moment I entered the town, it was different from the last time I came.

There are a lot of unfamiliar people with non-local accents in the town, and several shops have opened in the busiest streets of the town, and there are many idlers sitting at the door of each house. It was the village women in the countryside who came to sell mountain products with baskets on their backs, and they swarmed around.

This one shouted: Big sister, do you have mountain goods for sale?To my home, my home is the most fair.

The one yelled: Eldest sister, when you come to my house, not only the price is fair, but also the cash is given without credit, and without pressure!

Others stretched out their hands to take the back basket from the car down without waiting for their consent.

One of them touched Shen Jiayan's pannier, and dragged it down silently.

Seeing Shen Jiayan, she frowned, and the bamboo tube in her hand slapped on that hand: "What are you doing? It's broad daylight, can you grab something?"

The man carrying the back basket was a man with triangular eyes. He was hit on the wrist, and he withdrew his hand with his teeth and mouth cracked in pain. He stared and said arrogantly: "You woman is so unreasonable! It’s a woman’s family, and it takes a lot of effort to carry such a basket, so I kindly help you move it down! Why didn’t you thank me, and beat me?”

The woman in the car, don't look like they are all powerful in the village and at home, but when they arrived in the town, they softened by three points for no reason, and half of their anger was vented. Seeing the man's domineering, surrounded by a bunch of idlers, he felt more and more heartbroken. Panic.

Before Shen Jiayan could speak, he gave her a wink and pushed her secretly: "Sister Shen, but you misunderstood! That elder brother is helping us! You didn't know the rules here, so apologize to elder brother— —”
