Chapter 7 Selling Snakes in the Town
Hehua Town is not small, Shutong walked and wandered, and finally entered a medicine store, poisonous snakes, this place should accept things like this!

Since the door was opened, there were already customers in the pharmacy picking up medicines. The errand boy had just sent a customer away when he saw a child in rags walking in.

"Let's go! This is a pharmacy, not a place to play!" The young man frowned, with his arms outstretched, as if trying to throw a chicken at someone.

Shutong remained silent, regardless of the disgust on the boy's face, poured out the poisonous snake that was as thick as an adult's arm from the bamboo basket.

"Oh! What a big snake!"

The boy was startled, and the shouts frightened the guests by the door, and they all ran away in panic.

"Don't be nervous, it's dead!"

Shutong explained, it's no wonder everyone panicked, the seven inches of the poisonous snake was pinched off by her bare hands, because it was taken out of the space, the color was still bright, and it looked so vivid and scary.

"dead?"

The little fellow saw that the colorful lump did not move, so he took a step forward cautiously.

My dear!This is a highly poisonous five-step snake!It was the first time he had seen such a big man.

Shutong smiled, "Do you accept it here?"

Just as the boy was about to speak, he saw the shopkeeper coming out from inside, and hurriedly greeted him, "Shopkeeper! Someone is selling poisonous snakes, come and see!"

The manager of the pharmacy was a fat middle-aged man. Hearing the movement, he stepped out quickly. When he saw the five-step snake on the ground, he also took a deep breath and stood still.

Shutong kicked the dead snake lightly, and said with a smile, "Don't worry! It's already dead!"

The shopkeeper was startled before he was relieved, looked carefully at the poisonous snake, then raised his head to look at Shutong, and finally nodded in satisfaction, "Little girl, how do you plan to sell this thing?"

Shutong didn't know the prices in ancient times, and the original owner was also a child who didn't care about world affairs, so he said, "My father is a hunter, and I can still catch this kind of thing in the future. Why don't you set a price, if it's suitable, and come back later. your home!"

Although he doesn't understand prices, Shutong is not stupid.

"So that's it!" The shopkeeper rubbed his hands. It is impossible for such a small child to catch such a big poisonous snake. He said with a smile, "This snake is very complete. How about I give you five taels of silver?"

Shutong didn't know what the price was, but he hesitated on purpose.

"Five taels?"

Seeing that she didn't nod her head, the shopkeeper hurriedly said, "Otherwise, I'll add some more, and I'll give you [-] taels, but let's make an agreement, and in the future, if there are any such goods, they will be sent to me!"

Shutong smiled secretly, nodded cheerfully, "Okay!"

After getting the money, Shutong went straight to the steamed stuffed bun shop outside, which she had hoped for a long time ago, "Boss, give me five baskets of stuffed buns!"

"How much?" The boss was stunned, and saw two pieces of silver, one large and one small, in front of his eyes, probably about seven or eight taels.

"Okay, okay, Wulong Baozi, ready right away!" The bun owner's face also turned into a meat bun with a smile.

It seems that the money is enough, Shutong sat down with peace of mind.

Soon the steaming steamed stuffed buns were served, and the five-tiered cage covered the little girl's body tightly.

Shutong picked up the bamboo chopsticks and ate with her cheeks aside. Her small mouth was small and her speed was extremely fast. For buns the size of an adult's fist, she took two bites, and quickly wiped out three cages.

"Oh! Little girl, you can't eat any more!" The boss was terrified when he saw it.

"The steamed stuffed bun in my house is big, if you eat too much, it will burst!"

The boss wants to make money, but he is also afraid of accidents!My buns are big, there are ten in one cage, and thirty in three cages, and I don't have such a big appetite for a big guy.

This child is skinny, can he eat so much?Even if you have money, you have to take it easy, who cares if you turn around and support people to death?

Shutong also realized that his big appetite was scary, nodded and said: "Okay, I won't eat, you pack these for me! Wait, two more cages!"

"Good!" Seeing that she had stopped eating, the boss packed four steamed buns with confidence and carefully wrapped them in big lotus leaves.

"Girl, a total of 170 five Wen, if you buy more, you will be charged 170 Wen!"

Shutong didn't know how to convert ancient money, so he picked up a broken piece of silver, and the boss shook his head, "It's five taels, I can't find a small business like this!"

I chose a small piece, and gave her a piece of broken silver and a pile of copper plates.

"Girl! This is for you! Keep it up!"

Shutong laughed, ancient money seems to be able to buy a lot of things!
Putting the money into the gray purse given by the pharmacy owner, and putting it in his arms, Shutong looked at the tattered bamboo basket at his feet with disgust.

"Boss, do you have a bamboo basket, I want to buy one!"

You can't put buns into the space under the watchful eyes of everyone, so you have to do something.

"If you want to buy bamboo baskets, there is an alley in the back. I'll call someone for you!"

The owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop turned around and shouted, "Old Li, someone wants to buy a bamboo basket, if you pick one up, give me one!"

Immediately, a thin old man came with a new bamboo basket, "Boss, what do you think of this?"

Shutong saw that the bamboo basket was quite strong, and put the packed buns into it with a smile, "How much is it?"

As soon as the old man was about to speak, the owner of the bun shop took the lead and said, "Five copper coins!"

Without hesitation, Shutong counted five copper coins, "Thank you!"

He picked up the big bamboo basket and left.

The old man selling bamboo baskets looked at the five copper coins in his palm, wondering why, "Brother Li, the price is going to be high, we can't cheat a child!"

The owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop glared at him, "I can't even open the pot at home, your kid is still screaming hungry, and he still cares about others, don't look at that girl's tattered clothes, she has money in her hand, just buy it from me." Buns worth 170 Wen!"

Old man Li knew that the other party was helping his family. He watched the little girl go away and muttered to himself, "When we meet her again in the future, I will give you a better bamboo basket. Although we are poor, we can't lose our conscience!"

Shutong, who had gone so far, was a supernatural being. He heard it rightly, but his body stopped suddenly, and he turned back.

"Old man, do you have a smaller bamboo basket, this one is too big!"

The old man panicked, clutching the copper coins in his hand, stammering, "They're all the same size, I, I'll give you the money back!"

Shutong found that he was really honest, and said with a smile: "You might as well make one up for me, as long as it's half the size of this one, it's fine for me!"

The old man hesitated, Shutong had already stuffed him with a handful of copper coins, "My bamboo basket is specially made, these are considered wages, how long will it take to get it done!"

Boss Baozi pushed the dazed old man, and said instead of him: "It's very fast, I will make it for you in less than an hour!"

The old man came back to his senses and nodded desperately.

"Okay, I'll get it later!" Shutong waved his hand and left again.

"Brother Li, I'm not dreaming!" The old man looked at the dozen or so copper coins in his palm.

"Why are you still in a daze, hurry up and get a beautiful little bamboo basket, you! You met a good person today!"

Shutong went to a secluded place and threw the steamed stuffed bun into the space with a bamboo basket, the food must be kept fresh in time!
Looking at his tattered clothes, Shutong curled his lips in disgust, chose a tailor shop and walked in.
