Chapter 25
"Let's go, now that we have capital, let's go buy sweet potato flour and make the jelly you mentioned." He Rong said to He Miao with a smile.

He Miao nodded and said: "Yes, but first try to sell less.

Then go back and buy some rice noodles. The stomach is sour from eating sweet potatoes and wild vegetables these two days. "

"Well, that's fine." He Rong hesitated for a moment, looked at the dry little faces of their siblings, and finally agreed.

But she made up her mind to catch more cicada monkeys and come back at night. The family is asking for money everywhere now, so she has to take advantage of this good opportunity to earn more.

After that, Niang San went directly to the grain store.

When the young man saw them coming in, he sized them up first, then walked over unhurriedly and asked casually, "What do you three want?"

Seeing his negligent attitude, He Miao felt a little annoyed, but they didn't drive them out, so she couldn't get angry either.

Then he stepped forward, first took a look at the things in the store, and deliberately asked: "Do you have pea flour?"

The little boy was stunned for a moment and replied: "No."

"What about mung bean flour?"

"No." After the boy finished speaking, he asked a little displeased, "What do you want to buy?"

Peas and mung beans are mainly used for pastry. Who doesn't go back to soak the beans and grind them by themselves? Thinking of this, she glanced at her suspiciously, thinking that she might be looking for trouble.

"Naturally, I'm asking something, what do you want to buy, but unfortunately you don't have it." He Miao shook his head and asked, "Then sweet potato powder should be available?"

"Yes, how much do you want?" The boy asked in a bad tone.

Seeing his attitude, He Miao was about to get annoyed, so instead of making things difficult for him, he asked, "How did you sell it?"

"Eight cents a catty." The boy stretched out his hand.

He Miao was very surprised when she heard this, it was much cheaper than she expected, and then hesitated for a while and said, "Let's take two catties first."

"Wait." The boy responded, and then went directly to weigh the sweet potato flour.

Then he walked up to He Rong who was picking rice and said, "Mother, have you decided which one to choose?"

"I think the broken rice is pretty good, let's buy some of this, it will save fire and money." He Rong pointed to the broken rice on the side.

After hearing this, He Miao went forward and pinched a handful, put it in the palm of his hand to check it, and after confirming that the rice was good rice, he nodded and said, "That's it."

"Broken rice is ten cents a catty, how many catties?" the boy came over and asked.

"Two catties too." He Rong hesitated for a moment.

"Where's the bag?" the boy stretched out his hand.

"We didn't bring a bag, so you can use paper to pad it for us and put it in the basket." He Rong was startled for a moment, then handed the basket to him and said awkwardly.

"Really, you don't bring a bag when you buy things." The boy muttered dissatisfiedly, then turned around and went to weigh the rice.

Seeing this, He Rong said to He Miao: "Miao, I forgot to bring a bag today, let's buy it tomorrow."

"Okay." He Miao nodded.

After paying 36 Wen and coming out, He Miao turned around and asked, "Mother, how many grain shops are there in this town?"

"Two, this store belongs to the Bai family, and it has a complete set of relative items." When He Rong said this, she thought of the way she deliberately made things difficult for the young man when she was in the store just now, and asked with a smile: "Are you dissatisfied with that?" The attitude of the little guy, he is a bit high-sighted, but he is not bad, and every time he is full of weight, there is no need to care about that."

"I just feel uncomfortable. It's like spending money to pay for it." He Miao said with a bit of resentment.
