Dressed as a mother-in-law, she leads the whole family to turn over

Chapter 19 Catch the big market

Jiang Ning woke up early and went to town with the dried melons and twenty kilograms of melon seeds on Yang Erdan's back.

The shopkeeper of Hongantang was quite satisfied with the quality of the melons. Sixty pounds of the melons were exchanged for three hundred coins. After leaving the hospital, they went to the grocery store again. The shopkeeper still remembered Jiang Ning. Before she could speak, the shopkeeper eagerly asked Said: "Auntie, I look forward to the stars and the moon, but I hope you are here! Are there any melon seeds?"

Jiang Ning immediately became happy, and instead of telling him anything, he directly showed off twenty kilograms of melon seeds. This time the shopkeeper paid so well that he even gave them a pack of white hair cakes in order to maintain a good supply relationship.

Baifa cake is an extremely common delicacy that ordinary people can afford. However, no one in the ordinary family would spend money to buy these seemingly useless snacks. They usually only prepare some for visiting relatives.

After the mother and son came out of the grocery store, Jiang Ning made a special trip to the Dashan Inn to ask shopkeeper Jin about tomorrow's big gathering, "Shopkeeper, have we had a lot of businessmen from other places come here in the past two days?"

Shopkeeper Jin glanced at Jiang Ning curiously and nodded, "There will definitely be more people than usual during the big market. After all, we are the backer of Dashan Town. They can take the opportunity to collect some mountain goods when they pass by. Sometimes, if you are lucky, you can even get some. The people in the mountains are selling blind bears and ginseng!"

"Blind Bear?" Jiang Ning was suddenly shocked. She knew that there must be a lot of wild ginseng in the mountains. Someone dared to catch this Blind Bear!
  Shopkeeper Jin chuckled, "No! Last year, a few hunters in Zhaojiagou got a blind bear and sold it for thirty-six taels! And the wild ginseng that is more than ten years old can also be sold for more than a dozen Two! But these things are hard to come by, and merchants are more focused on delicacies and game."

"What kind of wild game?" Jiang Ning continued to ask.

Shopkeeper Jin said a lot but didn't mention mushrooms. Jiang Ning's heart sank and he asked: "Shopkeeper, do you know that these merchants collect mushrooms?"

"Mushrooms?" Shopkeeper Jin frowned slightly.

Jiang Ning showed him some different varieties of mushrooms he had brought.

Shopkeeper Jin looked at it for a moment and then said slowly: "There are some large restaurants and restaurants that have dedicated chefs to make mushrooms, but they are all made by old experts and passed down from ancestors. Most people can't tell whether mushrooms are poisonous and dare not eat them randomly. ! Someone must have collected it, it just depends on luck!"

Jiang Ning was a little worried and could only lick his face and beg: "Can you please the shopkeeper to put these mushrooms here? If anyone asks, please tell me that we will come to catch the big market tomorrow. Don't worry, I won't let your work be in vain." of!"

Shopkeeper Jin waved his hand and said indifferently, "What a big deal! Just let it go!"

It's not that shopkeeper Jin is easy to talk to, but because of Li Changsheng's face, that is his big customer. Since he is asked to maintain a good relationship with Jiang Ning, he naturally does not dare to neglect.

With the help of Shopkeeper Jin, Jiang Ning felt more stable.

The two of them left the inn. Seeing that she was not very happy, Yang Erdan persuaded her: "Auntie, I think we are doing well as we are now. We have more than 300 Wen at home, and today we exchanged another 380 Wen. There are more than 700 Wen. Grandpa and grandma may not even have that much money! We can exchange some more money when the money comes down.

I have discussed it with my elder brother. We have melon seeds not only in Qingfeng Mountain, but also in other mountains. It doesn’t matter even if they are rotten. We will bring them back to fry the melon seeds and sell them. We will look for them the day after tomorrow. "

Jiang Ning felt sad, relieved, and a little distressed after hearing this, "Don't worry, we can discuss it when we get back."

At this moment, a man hurried past them carrying a child on his back and walked into the inn. "Shopkeeper Jin, could you please invite Boss Zhang to come down? My daughter is sick and needs money. I want to make a partial settlement with him." Account."

"Well, Boss Zhang went out to discuss business early this morning. He's not here!" Shopkeeper Jin looked embarrassed.

"What should we do?" The other party's voice was very anxious.

Yang Erdan pointed behind Jiang Ning and said: "Mom, that's Uncle Yang Han in the village. He was the one who caught the big fish in the river! Before, Sizhuang almost drowned when he went to the river to play naughty, but it was Uncle Yang Han who pulled him up, eh? Xiaohua What's wrong with my sister? Her face is so red!"

When Jiang Ning heard that it was a villager who was kind to his family, he had to sigh that Dashan Town was really small. Last time he came back, he met Zhang's family, and now he met Yang Han and his daughter. She took fifty coins from her arms and gave them to Yang Erdan, asking him to give them to Yang Han.

Yang Erdan was very fast, and soon Jiang Ning saw Yang Han rushing out of the inn with his daughter on his back. He only glanced at her and ran away without even bothering to talk to her.

Yang Erdan returned to Jiang Ning, "Don't worry, Mom, Uncle Yang Han is a good man and he won't fail to pay back the money!"

Jiang Ning twitched his lips in a funny way and left the town.

The next day, the family got up before dawn. After yesterday's drying, the mushrooms were almost ready to be harvested. Some of the melons were also dried and could be sold again.

Liu Ye wanted to make some clothes, but Xiaoya wanted to go, but her legs were short and she couldn't walk as fast as everyone else. She was afraid of holding everyone back, so she stayed at home to help Liu Ye.

The others all carried their things on their backs and left the village. They met many villagers on the way. Everyone saw that the family was either speeding up or slowing down. In short, no one wanted to go with them.

Jiang Ning was enjoying his leisure time, listening to the chatter of the village women.

"I finally saved a basket of eggs and hope to sell them all."

“I grow a lot of vegetables in my garden, but I don’t know if I can sell them.”

"It would be great if I could find cheap materials. It's time to make autumn clothes."

Everyone was sad and laughing at the same time, and they also talked about other people's rights and wrongs, but they didn't feel bored at all.

Jiang Ning didn't realize what a real market was until he entered Dashan Town. People seemed to be coming from all directions today. The usually cold streets were lined with stalls, and there was endless shouting.

The mother and son held hands and squeezed through the crowd. They finally found an empty seat in the corner, but found that they were surrounded by unfamiliar faces. The children put down their things and looked around for a long time but did not see the villagers of their Banyan Tree Village. It was obvious that there were no people there. There are really many!

Yang Santie imitated others and shouted at the top of his voice: "Mushrooms, mushrooms, delicious edible mushrooms, everyone, come and take a look!"

Someone was really attracted by Yang Santie's voice, but after taking one look, he shook his head and left. Who doesn't know about mushrooms? There are a lot of them in the mountains! What matters is whether it is poisonous or not, but they don’t understand it and don’t dare to try it easily.

Several groups of people who came in a row shook their heads and left after taking one look.

Several children were very enthusiastic at the beginning, but later they became less interested and could no longer stand.

Jiang Ning didn't hold them back, and only warned them: "It's okay to go and play, but don't get kidnapped!"

Yang Datou was worried, so he handed the stall to Jiang Ning and Er Dan, and took his brothers to wander around.

As soon as they left, someone came to the back stall.
