The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 534 Traveling Merchant Toya
Baimeixi doesn't carry many things, and it's not obvious among a large group of merchants. There are about a dozen households with more than 100 people in this market, and none of them is anyone Baimeixi knows.

It seems that those who have lived in the herdsmen's market for a long time have bought what they need and no longer need to come to this place.

Bai Meixi felt relieved. During this period, she sold a lot of things at the herdsmen's market, which seemed to have benefited many people.

This incident strengthened her confidence. She squeezed next to the vendor, unloaded Hongyan's goods, and set up the stall next to the vendor.

"Auntie, what I buy here are expensive things. If you want to sell souvenirs or something, go to the open space over there and sell them. Don't grab space here."

The hawker was very dissatisfied with Bai Meixi's actions. The rocky area was leeward and was a rare geomantic treasure in this cold snowy mountain. There were already unwritten rules in this market. Whose items were more valuable and could be sold more. The better the place you occupy, the better. If someone puts the sweet potatoes and potatoes grown in the ground and sells them next to him, it simply devalues ​​him.

"Is your stuff very expensive? What is it?" Bai Meixi asked knowingly, and glanced at his salt with disdain. In order to make the salt sell for more money, this vendor not only charged a sky-high price, but also ginsenged the salt. When the snow melts, the salt will condense into clumps, which is not conducive to preservation.

Bai Meixi felt that his behavior was simply selling counterfeit goods. This kind of thing has long been cleared out by regulatory authorities in modern society.

"Are you blind? You don't even know salt. This is the best salt. I am the only one who has it in the whole market." The vendor held his half bag of salt tightly in his arms, fearing that Bai Meixi Taking the opportunity to rob, he was surrounded by a lot of trophies, furs, livestock, and a huge pile. Compared with Bai Meixi's state of one person and one horse, he was much suppressed in terms of momentum.

"I thought it was something, but it turned out to be nothing special." Bai Meixi opened the salt bag very calmly. The salt she got from the salt merchant was already good, and it was even more conspicuous when placed on the snow-capped mountains, which made the hawker things immediately faded away.

"How is it possible? The mountain roads here are so dangerous. How can you, a woman, transport salt in?" The vendor felt that Bai Meixi must have participated. These granules were probably mixed with flour and snow, with the purpose of forcing him to Salt prices reduced.

"So what about women, if you can bring it in, I can also bring it in." Bai Meixi generously invited everyone to taste it in order to confirm the quality of her salt.

There was an extra salt seller in the market. This kind of thing was a top priority in the west market. Many people gathered around and wanted to know if this thing was true.

"It's salt, it's really salt." A herdsman tasted a little out of curiosity and found that the salt particles in Baimeixi were very fine, melted in the mouth, and had no bitter taste. They had not seen this kind of good salt for a long time. .

"How much is the salt? We bought it." The herdsmen who had just gathered around the hawker rushed to Bai Meixi's side. After all, Bai Meixi looked sincere and honest, and was much better than the hawker next to him who was asking random prices and shoddy goods. .

Bai Meixi had heard about the price of salt at the herdsmen's market before. This place cannot produce its own salt, and the transportation is inconvenient, so the cost of transporting things in is very high. Salt is a very scarce commodity and is much more valuable than vegetables and chestnuts. .

She thought for a moment and offered what she thought was a reasonable price, "One sheep can be exchanged for 8 pounds of salt."

This price surprised all the herdsmen. Now that the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, Baimeixi not only did not take advantage of the situation, but also offered a cheaper price than in previous years. It is simply incredible. "Sister-in-law, is this price true?" These herdsmen thought they had heard wrongly and confirmed it with Bai Meixi again.

"Of course it's true. Eight pounds of salt is worth a lot for a sheep. My name is Toya, and I will come here often in the future." Bai Meixi smiled faintly. For her, the cost of eight pounds of salt was, however, It's only a little over 8 yuan, and you can get a sheep worth more than 8 yuan for such a small amount of money. It's already a lot of money.

"Impossible, you must be here to cause trouble." The vendor didn't believe that someone would sell salt at such a low price. He took some out of Bai Meixi's salt bag, put it in his mouth and tasted it. It tastes so good you can't believe it.

The hawker glanced at Bai Meixi suspiciously and felt that something was wrong. He had been selling salt from other places for more than a year or two. The weather had been bad along the way. It was normal for the salt to get damp, but there was no trace of salt in Baimeixi. There were signs of moisture and caking, and it didn't look like it had been shipped in from other places.

"If there is anything impossible, we want this sister-in-law's salt." The herdsmen put the hawker aside, exchanged the sheep in their hands for the salt from Baimeixi, and then distributed the salt to others.

The herdsmen are united and understand each other's situation. Everyone in the market has been given a pound or two of salt, so there is no problem in surviving the winter.

Bai Meixi took out another 40 kilograms of tea. These fine black teas were also recognized by the herdsmen. After a while, all her 40 kilograms of black tea were exchanged for five sheep.

Seeing that he had lost his business, the hawker planned to take away the loot. Unexpectedly, he was blocked by a few herdsmen before he left the market.

"Your salted ginseng is half the snow. You dare to bring this kind of thing to us to defraud us. Now we want to return it."

The herdsmen couldn't bear the waste of their hard-earned money, so they surrounded the hawker to demand an explanation and get their things back.

The hawker naturally refused, and a fierce quarrel broke out between several people. The hawker was only one person, so naturally he could not resist so many herdsmen. He watched helplessly as all the things he had finally obtained in exchange were taken away.

"If you take my things now, don't even think about exchanging salt with me in the future. Just wait until you die on this snowy mountain." The vendor kept cursing at the herdsmen. His salt was mixed with snow and couldn't be stored for long. Now, These herdsmen refused to change. Not only did he not make a penny, he even had to cover the cost.

This time he shipped a lot of goods. If they were all destroyed in his hands, he would have no capital to do business again.

"It's all your fault. This is all your fault." The hawker directed his anger at Bai Meixi and wanted to grab her things to make up for his losses, but was stopped by the herdsmen before he could take action.

Now they don't count on this hawker at all. Now they have a better candidate, the traveling merchant Toya.
