The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 423: Market replenishment supplies
After finishing her major task, Bai Meixi rushed to the vegetable market to replenish supplies. Today happened to be a big market in the vegetable market. In addition to the fixed stalls, farmers from the surrounding suburbs and five counties also brought their own crops to the vegetable market. Buy, the bustling crowd formed a long formation of more than [-] meters, which made Bai Meixi extremely excited.

The first thing she bought was eggs. Aunt Liu said that the eggs she bought in Dasha City were not as delicious as those laid by the chickens in the space. They could only be used to make tea eggs, not egg pancakes.

In addition to the different water quality in the space, it is also related to the feed that the chickens eat. The eggs in the farmer's market are wholesaled from chicken farms, and they eat feed made of bran and rotten vegetables, while the chickens raised in the space are scattered. The chickens usually eat a lot of rapeseeds and bugs. These things have special nutrients and allow the chickens to lay the best wood-fired eggs. The nutritional content and taste are much better than eggs from chicken farms.

Bai Meixi wants to find the best wood-fired eggs outside, but she can only buy them from farmers, not from fixed stalls in farmers' markets.

However, most of the eggs in the hands of farmers are produced by their own chickens, and there are no more than a hundred eggs at most. Bai Meixi has changed the entire market and has not been able to meet the demand.

"Sister, how many eggs do you want? I see you have walked around here several times." A sister-in-law came towards Bai Meixi carrying a bamboo basket. There were more than a dozen eggs in her basket, which looked shiny. The water is smooth and very fresh, but this is not enough.

She needs at least 800 eggs this time, and she has only bought more than 300 now. If she can't get them all, she will have to buy eggs from the market to make up the number.

"I still need 500 more. Sister-in-law, I want the eggs you have here. If you still have them, bring them to me." Bai Meixi took the sister-in-law's basket and counted it. There were 17 eggs in total. According to the The market price was 8 cents, so Bai Meixi gave the sister-in-law 5 cents and put the eggs in her own basket.

"So you want so many, why don't you go to our village to collect them? There are many people in our village. A family raises three to five chickens, and each one lays eggs. If we put them all together, we can probably have hundreds."

This sister-in-law lives in a nearby village. She came here today to sell the big fat pig at home to pay for her children's tuition. These eggs were brought out by the way. If Bai Meixi wants eggs, she can use them as a cart to pull the pigs. Go back together.

"Is there really so much? Can you send me back later?" Bai Meixi has very high requirements for ingredients. When she heard that there were fresh eggs, she immediately started talking to the sister-in-law.

"Of course, eggs don't last long, and the output of each household is not high. Occasionally, I can only sell them once when I meet people who go to the city for the market. Today, my family has to sell pigs, and I can't help you bring them. There are no other pigs in the village. People are going to the city to go to the market, if you can come and collect them, we would be happy to ask for them."

The sister-in-law agreed wholeheartedly, let Bai Meixi get on her family's oxcart, and staggered forward. Her village was about an hour away from here. Bai Meixi sat in the car and talked with this person. The sister-in-law kept chatting about home affairs, and it turned out that the village they were in was famous for its porcelain. Every household was burning kilns, and the output was not low.

"There used to be many famous people in our village. I heard that some people even went into the palace to burn porcelain for the Empress Dowager Cixi. Unfortunately, it can't be done now. The fire is not good and the kiln is broken. The porcelain produced is only coarse porcelain, which cannot be bought for much money. "

The elder sister-in-law was very humble and looked like she had studied for several years. Different from the people who always stayed in the village with their faces turned to the earth and their backs to the sky, there was a sense of delicacy in her bones, which made Bai Meixi trust her extraordinarily.

"Anyone with some skills is better than digging for food in the soil." Bai Meixi became more interested in this village. As soon as she got off the car, she couldn't wait to see the earthen kiln. The sister-in-law thought she had never seen an earthen kiln. Fresh, let the people in the village take her there first, and collect the eggs from door to door for her.The people in the village were very happy when they heard that someone came to collect eggs at their doorstep. Everyone picked the best eggs and took them out. They were not only smooth on the surface but also big and round.

In less than an hour, the sister-in-law collected all the eggs, a total of 523.

"Thank you, sister-in-law. I'm really troubling you this time." Bai Meixi immediately took out 28 yuan, and the extra 1 yuan was considered as a courtesy fee for the sister-in-law.

"You are too polite. You have helped us a lot this time. How can I charge you money? Is there anything else you want to see? I will show you around." The sister-in-law returned the extra money to Bai Mei Xi took her around the village.

This sister-in-law is considered a wealthy family in the village. Her house is the closest to the earthen kiln, and she usually bakes a lot of things. The yard is full of porcelain. When Bai Meixi went in, she found that there were many bowls facing the pigsty of her house. Wrapped in straw, it was so densely packed that it was as tall as one person.

"Sister-in-law, how come such good porcelain is piled up in the pigpen." Bai Meixi opened one. The sister-in-law's family made traditional blue-rimmed porcelain bowls, which are also the most common large coarse porcelain bowls for eating at home. , but the edge of this bowl does not look smooth, and there are many cracks on the edge of the bowl. It should be that the temperature was not controlled properly during the kiln firing.

"This batch of bowls is defective. The thermometer broke during the kiln firing. This batch was ruined. There are a thousand of them. They cannot be sold and cannot be used at home, so they can only be piled here."

The sister-in-law sighed. The cost of these one thousand bowls was 50 yuan. For a rural family like hers, this was several months of income. If these bowls were burned, she would not have to sell them to her family. The pigs collect tuition for their children.

"Sister-in-law, I just need these bowls. Sell them to me, but I can only give you the cost price of 50 yuan." Bai Meixi happened to be short of bowls and chopsticks. Although the bowls of this sister-in-law didn't look good, she didn't delay using them. , just right for her.

"That's great, sister, you are really my benefactor." The sister-in-law was very grateful. In addition to these porcelain bowls, she also helped Bai Meixi purchase other goods.

Matching spoons and chopsticks are made by people in the village. Naturally, the price of Baimeixi is friendly. 1000 spoons cost 2 cents each, a total of 20 yuan. 1000 pairs of bamboo chopsticks cost 4 yuan. There is also a portable stove. , brazier and 200 kilograms of charcoal, as well as two large iron cauldrons for cooking, a total of 21 yuan was spent.

The goods in this village are of excellent craftsmanship and cheap. Bai Meixi saw that there were still many sweet potatoes piled in the field, so she brought another 500 kilograms at a cost of 6 cents per kilogram, a total of 30 yuan.

There were so many things that filled two large cars. Bai Meixi asked her sister-in-law to take the things to the market. After watching her walk away, she put all the things into the space. With so many things, her business It is no longer a stall, but a roadside shop.
