Chapter 162 Timber
"So that's how it is." After Gu Jiujiu finished speaking, the man took Gu Jiujiu and the others to look at the wood piled up in the yard, "Little lady, all the wood in my house is here, take a look and see what you want to choose." What kind?"

Gu Jiujiu looked at the wood in the yard and took a rough look at it. Finally, she pointed to a kind of wood that looked very strong and looked at the man and said, "Uncle, I want this kind of wood. I don't know if you How is this wood sold?"

The man glanced at the wood that Gu Jiujiu was pointing at, and did not tell Gu Jiujiu the price of the wood first, but looked at her and smiled, "Little lady, the wood you chose is the best here, The house built with it is strong and stable, and the wood will not get worms even after ten or eight years.”

Hearing this uncle's words, Gu Jiujiu frowned slightly, and she thought to herself that the price of this wood would definitely not be too cheap.

Sure enough, just as he was thinking, the middle-aged uncle looked at Gu Jiujiu and continued: "Because this wood is a high-quality wood, it is much more expensive than those ordinary mountain woods."

"I wonder how much it will cost?" As soon as the middle-aged uncle who sold wood finished speaking, Gu Jiujiu subconsciously looked at him and asked.

"Twenty coppers are expensive, and this ordinary mountain tree is only thirty coppers. The one you want is the best, so you need fifty coppers." After a pause, the middle-aged uncle looked at it. Looking at Gu Jiujiu, he said with a smile: "However, according to the usual practice, if you buy a lot of wood, little lady, I can give you a little bit cheaper."

Gu Jiujiu didn't know if the price the uncle said was too expensive, so she turned around and glanced at Yan, "Mother, what do you think of the price?"

In the past, when the Yan family was building thatched huts, the Yan family followed her eldest brother Yan Dalang to this village to buy wood. Knowing that the price the man told them was a bit high, when she saw Gu Jiujiu asking, she looked at it. The middle-aged man said: "Brother, I know that your wood is of the highest quality, and it is really good to use it to build houses. However, the price you gave is indeed a bit high. Make it cheaper, otherwise, we will go to another house to have a look."

As soon as the man heard that Yan said that he wanted to be seen by others, he quickly looked at Yan and said, "Then, sister-in-law, how much is a piece of my wood worth?"

"Forty copper plates." Yan looked at the middle-aged man, "In my opinion, your wood is worth this price at most."

"Sister-in-law, the price you mentioned is too low." After thinking for a while, the man looked at Yan and said, "How about this, sister-in-law, I will suffer a little bit today, and I will sell one for 42 copper coins." Here you go, what do you think?"

After thinking about it for a while, Yan knew that the price was appropriate and not expensive, so he didn't bargain with the man in front of him any more, "Okay, we'll take the price you said."

Seeing that Yan said he wanted it, the man smiled and asked, "Sister-in-law, I wonder how much wood you and the young lady need to buy?"

"Send us six carts first, and if it's not enough, we'll buy it from you, uncle." Before Yan could answer, Gu Jiujiu made a rough calculation and looked at the man and said.
