Chapter 184 Killing Pigs

"Dafu, don't cut it first, how much is your meat?" A woman asked, it's better to ask first, don't say it's more expensive than the butcher's, it's not worth it.

"Yes, let's talk about how much it is per catty first." Everyone said.

Miao Xiaoyan listened to it and shouted with a smile: "The lean meat at this meat stall costs fifteen cents a catty, and here I pay thirteen cents regardless of whether it is fat or thin!"

"It's only two pennies cheaper?" said the woman who spoke first.

"Is ten pennies okay?" Another woman asked.

"Folks, I need labor and cost to raise this pig. These thirteen coins are really the lowest price." Miao Xiaoyan said.

"What about the ribs?" asked another.

"Spareribs cost ten cents a catty!" This place is no different from modern times, and the ones with bones are cheaper than the meat.

Seeing that everyone was still hesitating, Miao Xiaoyan smiled and shouted again: "Folks, we didn't plan to sell this meat at first. If you think the price is acceptable, then buy it. If you think it's too expensive, I will force it." You guys, I marinated this meat and saved it for the Chinese New Year."

When everyone heard that Miao Xiaoyan said that they would marinate and save it for the New Year, they were a little bit moved, because the villagers who bought meat had this plan, and they were usually reluctant to eat meat. They came to buy meat because they wanted to marinate it for the New Year.

"Then give me ten catties." A middle-aged woman said first. Her family has a large population and a lot of land. During the slack season, several sons will go out to do part-time jobs, so the family is relatively well-off. Food for the New Year Naturally, be more prepared.

Seeing that someone had spoken, another woman also shouted: "Then give me three catties too." Buying three catties is six renminbi cheaper than the meat stall, and you can save it to buy salt.

"I want two ribs!"

"I want two catties of fat!"

"."

When Zheng Butou came to Miao's house, he saw this scene of enthusiasm.

"Butou Zheng, you're here!" Shan Feng noticed that Butou Zheng was smiling at them among the crowd.

Zheng Butou walked over with a smile, took the knife from Miao Dafu's hand, and said, "Let me cut it."

"Why is this so embarrassing?" Miao Dafu said.

"It's nothing!" Zheng catcher said, and then asked a woman: "Auntie, what do you want?"

"I want three catties of pork belly, and a little more fat."

"okay!"

Miao Xiaoyan and Uncle Hu on the other side saw Zheng Butou, looked at each other, said nothing, and continued to cut meat for the villagers.

After a while, there were only a few unwanted pigs left in the water for a big pig weighing two to three hundred catties, and the villagers who came late hadn't bought any, so they all asked Miao Dafu when he would kill the pigs again.

Seeing this, Miao Xiaoyan smiled and said to them: "I'll kill it tomorrow, if you want to buy it, come back tomorrow."

"Okay, then we'll come back tomorrow."

After the crowd dispersed, Miao Xiaoyan said to Butou Zheng with some embarrassment: "Butou Zheng, I see that you have been busy for a long time, and there is no meat to give you now, so I can only ask my brother to give it to you tomorrow." Sent it over."

"Swallow, you don't have to be so polite, I eat meat all the time." Zheng catcher said with a smile, he is working in the government office, and his life is not too bad.

"It's your family's business." Miao Xiaoyan said.

While tidying up in the yard, Shanfeng shouted to Butou Zheng: "Swallow, Butou Zheng has been busy for a long time, hurry up and get Butou Zheng a glass of water."

"I'll pour it." Old Uncle Hu said and entered the house.

"Butou Zheng, thank you so much for today." Miao Dafu also said to Butou Zheng.
