Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 25
"That won't work."

Lu Yange pointed to the small vegetable market behind him: "The vegetable market over there sells two handfuls of zong leaves for a penny, and there is no mat grass to give away. The mat grass at the pier is two handfuls for a penny. If you want to buy zong leaves, you have to pay extra. The price is already the cheapest and cheapest in Jiangjiaba.”

The nine-year-old child's voice is still very soft and crisp, and there is no distinction between male and female. It is still very joyful to just listen to the voice without looking at his dark face.

"Whether it's cheap, what you sold to me is very expensive."

The sister-in-law sincerely wants to buy it, otherwise she wouldn't be bargaining with a child here.

"Not expensive? Let me tell you."

Lu Yange didn't seem to expect that his sister-in-law would think it too expensive, he stretched out his yellowed but not dirty fingers and counted 123321, and he couldn't figure out how to sell it for a long time.

The aunt who was watching the fun laughed and said: "Little brother, the account can be settled? This time the aunt will make a decision for you. You will give two cents and two handfuls of mat grass, and six zong leaves. It's just right."

This handful of matting grass can wrap about three handfuls of zong leaves, and the matting grass is not a rare thing, and it would be a waste to have more.

Lu Yange's eyes widened, and he said cleverly: "Yes, but the leaves are expensive, and the mats are not cheap either!"

That look, as if you just want to lie to me even though I'm young.

The aunt who provoked the conversation couldn't help laughing: "Then why don't you sell them separately?"

Lu Yange can answer this question, she looks very honest: "Because I came from the pier, there are a lot of zong leaves, but there is no one selling matting."

That's why I sell mat grass to give away zong leaves.

Otherwise, who will I sell my zong leaves to?
Look how smart I am.

"Hahaha... this child..."

The aunt couldn't help rubbing Lu Yange's head: "You just say, can I buy you two handfuls of mats for two pennies, and give me six handfuls of zong leaves? If it's okay, I'll buy it for two pennies too."

No wonder the aunt spoke briskly, she has been floating on the water all her life, rowing boats, pole-pulling, pulling, rowing, sailing... There is no work she has never done. In recent years, the family bought a big boat, and the days are getting worse. The better the future, the older her children and grandchildren can be, and she can live on the shore and enjoy life in peace.

Seeing what the aunt said, Lu Yange grinned, and nodded readily: "Okay, then two pennies and two mats, and six zong leaves."

After finishing speaking, Lu Yange smiled sheepishly again, and Zhizhiwuwu explained: "It's not that we don't give away more zong leaves, it's because yesterday, our zong leaves sold for one penny and two handfuls. If the zong leaves are sold at a lower price today Yes, the person who bought our zong leaves yesterday will not be happy to see it."

"That's not right." The sister-in-law who was about to buy matting said with a smile, "Now you are selling me three handfuls of zong leaves for one penny, and you also gave me a handful of matting. Compared with yesterday, isn't it very cheap?"

Lu Yange immediately hit the snake with the stick: "Yes, yes, I said it was very cheap, and you said it would be even cheaper."

The sister-in-law insisted on letting her go: "It's cheap, yes, then I'll buy an extra two cents, but I still have a question, isn't your selling like this a disadvantage to yesterday's customers?"

Lu Yange put on a serious face: "I didn't suffer a loss, the zong leaves I sold yesterday, and the mats I sold today, how can they be the same."

The little man had a dark face, but he was very handsome with slender eyebrows and big eyes.

Such a lively, smart and good-looking child seems to have grown into the hearts of these aunts and sisters-in-law.

There is nothing to be afraid of black spots, the town is next to the lake, almost all the children are playing wildly outside, and there are almost few children who are not black.

"Hahaha……"

The aunts and sisters-in-law who watched the excitement couldn't help but laugh, and even the aunt who spoke just now couldn't help laughing and tugging at Lu Yange's little claw: "You are quite smart, you little brat. Get me four Let’s make a few zongzi and eat them on the road when their masters are sailing, and then they can be kept in clear water for a few days.”

Hearing what the aunt said, the other sisters-in-law also gathered around.

"Then I'll take the straw mats and zong leaves for two cents."

"I also want two pennies, but you have to choose it for me, and don't want it if it's broken."

"Then I'll buy it for a penny too, so that my children won't be greedy watching your children eat zongzi."

This area is all family boats.

Although it is also a boat, it is different from Lu Quan's small fishing village.

Their alley extends in all directions, and there are about [-] or [-] families living there. Almost every family has a cargo ship, and they transport goods back and forth with the fleet. Although it is hard work, they earn a lot.

The women and children of the family live on the shore, and they are not afraid of wind and rain.

This is the life that the Qiu family yearns for the most. There is a big boat at home, a house on the shore, and a secure life.

After leaving this alley, Lu Xiaoli couldn't help but look back.

Xiaosi was not idle when she was selling zong leaves, she was chatting with those aunts and sisters-in-law all the time, she heard that this alley is also a place where people sail boats.

But people who sailed boats were different from those who fished in their family. They bought zong leaves worth two cents as soon as they wanted to buy them, and those children who ran around had much better clothes than those on fishing boats.

At least, there aren't that many patches.

The siblings had just turned out of the alley when a group of children rushed out of the alley.

The road, which was not originally spacious, immediately became narrow.

Lu Xiaoqing was so frightened that he hurriedly moved aside, not forgetting to drag Lu Xiaoyu who was walking on the road to the side of the road.

Even Lu Xiaoli and Lu Yange subconsciously stepped aside.

Even so, when seven or eight children rushed over, someone still slammed Lu Xingge's shoulder hard.

The impact was so hard that Lu Yange staggered and almost fell out.

If she hadn't held on to the wall by the side of the road in time, maybe this time, someone would really hit her and eat her shit.

"Don't you have eyes?"

The boy who hit the person was about ten years old, not only did not apologize, but also stared fiercely at Lu Yange with big eyes, raised his hand and pushed her, "You are blind."

This kid is the mat seller that grandma praised non-stop. If you praise him, you can praise him. Grandma even compared him with this kid, saying that he only knows how to play around, and he is not as good as a short, thick little black egg. .

"You were the one who bumped into someone first." Before Lu Xiaoyu could jump out, it was Lu Xiaoli who jumped out first.

The bully eyes of the boy who hit someone widened, and before he raised his hand, he pointed at Lu Xiaoli again: "Which eye of yours saw me hit her?"

"I……"

Before Lu Xiaoli could refute, Lu Yange stepped forward to block Lu Xiaoli: "Sorry, I didn't pay attention."

The boy didn't expect Lu Yangge to apologize, he opened his mouth slightly in astonishment, looked Lu Yange up and down for a long time, finally waved his hand in frustration, and squeezed out two words from his teeth: "Counsel."

A few boys surrounded by the side immediately let out a piercing laugh: "Hahahaha... You bastard."
