Chapter 31 Selling Eggs

The next morning, when Gu Lin got up, Zhang Guixiang had already prepared breakfast, and Zhou Xiaojuan got up early, and read a book for a while after washing up.

Although the little girl is only in the first grade, Gu Lin is ashamed of herself because of her thirst for knowledge.

Only Zhou Laiqian has not woken up.

Before Gu Lin could speak, the little girl had already gone to call someone.

After a while, I heard Zhou Laiqian get up cursing.

In order to make today's wormwood easy to sell, Gu Lin told Zhang Guixiang when he was sleeping last night that he would steam the wormwood in the morning.

They wrapped them in quilts. The wormwood might be cooler, but it would not be icy cold.

Bring a little chili and sugar, and let everyone have a taste.

As long as someone tastes it, this thing can be sold.

Zhang Guixiang steamed a large pot of moxa when she got up early in the morning, and cooked some millet porridge.

After eating, Gu Lin found two clean porcelain bowls to put Ai in, and wrapped the outside with a quilt.

The family went out.

Going to the town happened to pass Zhou Xiaojuan's school, so she dropped Zhou Xiaojuan on the way.

Gu Lin and Zhang Guixiang huddled under the quilt, and the cold wind still blew into the clothes along their necks.

Zhang Guixiang covered Gu Lin with half of the quilt, leaving half of her body exposed.

Gu Lin pulled some over to cover her.

"Mother, don't pull it on me. If I am young, I can still carry it if I get sick, but you may not be able to carry it!"

As soon as Zhang Guixiang heard this, she stopped pulling the quilt.

The two girls are close together.

"A Lin, is there a lot of people in the town? Are they easy to get along with? Will you see that we are from the countryside and make fun of us? This is the first time in my mother's life to go to the town, and this clothes are still the cleanest clothes of my mother. !"

During dinner last night, Gu Lin said that she would also go to town today, and she basically didn't fall asleep all night.

Scared and happy.

The fear is naturally that I am afraid that I will be laughed at by others, or that I will do something wrong and cause trouble for Ah Lin.

I am glad that I am going to bury half of my body in the soil. I didn't expect to have the opportunity to visit the town.

The more he knew about the little old lady around him, the more Gu Lin felt distressed.

Zhang Guixiang is in her late forties, yet she hasn't been to the town yet.

It's ridiculous to say such a thing, but it is a normal phenomenon for most villagers.

There are still some people in the village who never went to the town until their death.

Gu Lin said gently: "The people in the town have mouths under their noses just like us! They just eat better than us, live better than us, and dress better than us.

"You are well dressed! We are no worse than them!"

"Then we brought so many things today, can we sell them?"

"I don't know this yet, it should be sold! If it can't be sold, we can take it back and eat it ourselves!"

"Okay, I'll listen to you!"

With Gu Lin talking with Zhang Guixiang, Zhang Guixiang didn't feel bored at all, and there wasn't much fear in his heart.

After all, Zhou Laiqian was a young and energetic young man, wearing only a thick cotton jacket, sitting in front of the car and driving the car, he was not cold at all.

I don't know if the kid was happy to go to the town or because he was happy to make money, and he whistled halfway.

Niang San had arrived in town by dawn.

Seeing so many people in the town, Zhang Guixiang said in a trembling voice, "Come on, isn't it a big fair today?"

Zhou Laiqian thought for a while: "No, what's wrong!"

He jumped out of the car, pulled the donkey and walked forward slowly, and then looked back at Gu Lin: "Some people, they got lucky today!"

Gu Lin crawled out of the quilt: "Then you wish me that I will be able to sell the things today. If I sell them, we will buy a catty of meat, and when we go back, let mother make buns stuffed with sauerkraut and pork for us!"

Zhou Laiqian didn't speak, his Adam's apple slipped quickly.

Feeling that he was drooling, he subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth with his hand.

Gu Lin laughed for a while.

This kid is sometimes like an adult, sometimes like a child.

It's really what Zhou Xiaojuan said, a brat without even hair.

There are more and more people, and the car is not easy to go.

Gu Lin jumped out of the car.

Zhou Laiqian asked her, "Where to sell it?"

Gu Lin said: "Go directly to the market. There are many people in the early morning. Maybe you can sell it. If you can't sell it, go to other places!"

Although he came and went in a hurry last time, Gu Lin still noticed some things in the town.

Because they are located in a remote place, surrounded by mountains, there are no various factories in the county and provincial capitals.

The only places that might have a better economic situation are schools and military families.

Gu Lin has not seen other places.

It was not the first time for Zhou Laiqian to come to town, but it was the first time to do business, and his palms were sweaty.

At this time, Gu Lin was his backbone.

Whatever Gu Lin said he would do.

Zhang Guixiang didn't dare to get out of the car, for fear that she would get lost with Ah Lin if she didn't pay attention.

Before the three of them reached the gate of the market, they couldn't squeeze in.

Gu Lin saw that they were not far from the gate of the market, and there were also people selling vegetables at this place.

She found a place and asked Zhou Laiqian to tie the donkey.

After tying it up, the two of them took out two sacks of wormwood and a basket of eggs.

As soon as Gu Lin pulled Zhang Guixiang to sit down, an aunt with a vegetable basket came up to her.

"Girl, when did this egg come from?"

Gu Lin hurriedly said: "Auntie, the eggs in my house are all fresh, and they are all laid by my chickens!"

"We just rushed over from home early in the morning. It's not that we can't squeeze in, so we can only sell it here! If you like it, I'll give you a cheaper price!""

After everyone fell asleep last night, Gu Lin went back to the dormitory.

There is a computer in the dormitory, and she used the computer to check the price of goods in the 80s in the world she lived in.

Although she is now in the early 90s, but because she is located in the northwest, and it is still a remote mountain village.

Therefore, the news here is blocked, and the economic and cultural aspects are much behind that of the big cities.

She compared it, and the prices here are similar to those in the early 80s.

In the early 80s, eggs cost one piece, one to two, one catty, ten more eggs per catty, and seven or eight less.

Now if you go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things here, it seems that you still need a ticket.

Eggs are also a precious thing for them. There are many people who eat them but few tickets, so some people should buy them if the price is higher.

Doing business is nothing more than sweet talk and quick thinking, as long as you speak to the other party's heart.

There is nothing impossible in this business.

Gu Lin saw that the aunt was standing still and kept touching the eggs over and over again, obviously she knew it well.

Gu Lin guessed for a while and said, "Auntie, you often sell vegetables for cooking, and the eggs at my house are new or not, you must be able to tell at a glance!"

"In this way, I don't need a dollar or a catty to start a business, so I'll count you a dollar and a catty, and I'll give you wormwood!"

"Come here, grab a handful of wormwood!"

Confused and dumbfounded, Zhou Laiqian mechanically untied the rope tied to the sack when he heard his sister-in-law calling him.

Grab a lot of wormwood from it.
