Chapter 28 Selling at a good price

After the two of them had set off for the town, Yin Ziying and the three of them carried the bamboo baskets on their backs and walked up the mountain.

Today's task is the same as yesterday, to dig wild vegetables in the mountains, and dig more while there are still plenty of wild vegetables.

This morning, Yin Ziying did not meet any small animals on the mountain.

After each of them dug a basket of wild vegetables, they rushed home. When they got home, Yin Ziying turned over the wild vegetables that had been drying in the yard in the morning before preparing lunch.

She prepared a little too much lunch today, thinking that when Uncle Gu came back, she would let Uncle Gu eat at her own home.

It's kind of embarrassing to trouble someone to take so many things, and trouble him to take them to town once again.After all, a trip to the town is quite a waste of work.

In order to prevent Uncle Gu from staying at her house for dinner, she specially made steamed buns.

Although there is no meat stuffing, the buns made with wild vegetables are delicious.

As he expected, they stayed at home for nearly two hours, and when she came back from washing clothes, Uncle Gu just ran out of his house.

Uncle Gu waved his hands and said he couldn't say no and walked away. Brother and sister Gu Yunxuan and Gu Yunrui held in their hands the steamed stuffed bun that Yin Ziying told Uncle Gu to chase after.

Seeing this, Yin Ziying immediately smiled and said to Uncle Gu: "Uncle, are you back?"

When Uncle Gu saw her, he paused. After all, his nephew and daughter-in-law called him, so he couldn't help but answer, right?

Yin Ziying hastily put down the wooden basin in her hand, stepped forward and took the plate of buns from Gu Yunxuan's hand and stuffed it into Uncle Gu's hand.

"Uncle, I'm bothering you today, I think it has delayed a lot of your work! This steamed stuffed bun is the wild vegetable steamed stuffed bun I made at noon, and it costs more than some money. You can take it back and eat it! You must have eaten nothing in the town!"

Uncle Gu hurriedly waved his hands to refuse, Yin Ziying said again:

"Uncle, you just told us this morning that the whole family does not need to see outsiders. Now you come here and don't even eat a single bun we made? Why are you so outsiders?"

Seeing what she said, Uncle Gu had no choice but to take the bun.

What he was thinking at the moment was, didn't this nephew and daughter-in-law hear that she didn't study any books when she was in Yin's Village?
How do you make sense out of a set?

After Uncle Gu left, Yin Ziying entered the room, and Gu Yunxian stood up while eating the buns in his hand.

Seeing her nodding, he swallowed the bun in his mouth and said to Yin Ziying, "Sister-in-law!"

He looked excited, as if something good had happened in the town, Yin Ziying probably knew what it was, she waved her hand and said:
"Forget it, you eat first, and we'll talk after we're done. I still have clothes to dry outside!"

After finishing speaking, she ignored Gu Yunxian and went straight out of the room.When she finished drying her clothes before going in, Gu Yunxian had already finished eating and was sitting on the table waiting for her.

Brother and sister Gu Yunxuan and Gu Yunrui were also sitting at the side. Seeing that these people looked expectant, Yin Ziying sat down with a smile.

"What's the matter? What is this for? Did you sell for a good price today?"

Gu Yunxian nodded, with a happy expression on his face, he did not speak, but first took out a bag of things from his arms.

It was a small package wrapped in a handkerchief. When he opened it, everyone in the room opened their mouths in surprise.

The veil was wrapped in nothing else, but a hanging and a half hanging of copper coins.

Gu Yunrui was surprised: "Fourth brother, are there so many? Is this what you got from selling those things today?"

Gu Yunxuan also smiled in surprise: "Wow! A lot of money! A lot of money! How much food is this enough to buy?"

Gu Yunxian did not answer the words of his younger siblings, but nodded instead.

His gaze was fixed on Yin Ziying, with a trace of excitement and pride on his face, like a child seeking approval and praise.

Yin Ziying naturally didn't hesitate to praise her, she nodded, and there was some delighted smile on her face:
"Wow, Brother Xian, it seems that the prices for these things are very high today, right?"

Seeing that Yin Ziying finally asked, Gu Yunxian nodded sharply: "Yes, sister-in-law, the price is very high, and those rabbits sold for a lot of money."

After finishing speaking, he pointed to the copper coins on the table and said: "There are 1 tael of silver plus 555 Wen in total. Among them, the fish weighs eleven catties and sells for 110 Wen. The shrimp weighs two catties and sells for 40 Wen.

There are also rabbits, there are four rabbits in total, one is eight catties, one is twelve catties, one is eleven catties, and the other is nine catties. The total is forty catties. They are sold at 28 Wen per catty, and a total of 1 tael of silver is sold. Add another 120 Wen. "

At this time, Gu Yunxuan and Gu Yunrui, brothers and sisters, had already listened and their eyes widened. The rabbit alone was sold for 1 tael of silver plus 120 Wen?

That's one tael of silver!How much income would that be?You must know that their family was discussing whether they should go to the field to do work for four pennies a day two days ago!

Only two days later, they went to the town to sell a rabbit and sold it for more than one tael. What a contrast!

Yin Ziying nodded with a smile: "Well, the price is not bad. The sum of these is not enough for one tael and a half of silver. You sold the frog for the rest?"

Speaking of this, Gu Yunxian was even more pleasantly surprised:
"Yes, sister-in-law, there are seventeen frogs in total, and the total weight is ten catties and two taels. They are also sold at 28 Wen per catty. The total is 285 Wen.

So that's a lot in total.By the way, speaking of this, I remembered yesterday that I caught 18 of them, but now there are only [-] left, and I don't know what happened.

It may be that one accidentally crawled out from the kitchen at night. I have to go to the kitchen to look for it later. "

When Yin Ziying heard this, she felt a little guilty. Of course she knew that Gu Yunxian had indeed caught eighteen frogs, but one of them was secretly put into the space by her!

Therefore, even if Gu Yunxian looked for Potian in the kitchen, it was impossible for him to find it.

She hastily changed the subject and said with a smile: "Brother Xian, then you are amazing, you earned all these 285 papers by yourself."

Gu Yunrui and Gu Yunxuan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, fourth brother, you are awesome!"

Gu Yunxian's face was a little happy, and then he looked around strangely, and then said to the three of them:
"Sister-in-law, brother Rui, sister Xuan, it's strange to say that, I think there may be something in our house that makes these animals grow faster."

Yin Ziying's heart skipped a beat: "Oh? Why do you say that?"

Gu Yunxian said: "Sister-in-law, didn't I catch frogs with my uncle, second brother and third brother yesterday? Obviously, I felt that all the frogs I caught were about the same size.

But today when I went to Cuixianlou, I opened the bamboo basket and saw that the frogs I caught were the same weight as those caught by my uncle, his uncle, and the second and third brothers combined, both were ten catties and two taels. "

Yin Ziying raised her eyebrows: "Uncle and the three of them only caught ten catties and two taels in total?"

Of course she knew that it was because the effect of her space made the frog caught by Gu Yunxian bigger and heavier, but she had to ask this way.
