Standing together through thick and thin

Chapter 24 Making money is not as fast as spending money

Finally arrived in the town, Shaoqiu was relieved.

The Jiang family and the Shao Qin family are too capable.

He scolded all the way after walking, but he didn't listen. The people couldn't stop them, so they had to follow them.

Knowing their skills, Shaoqiu understood that the two of them were trying hard to torment Lu Shi back then, even if Lu Shi resisted, it was useless, Lu Shi was not their opponent.

But now that Shao Qiu is here, naturally he won't let them bully Mrs. Lu again.

Shao Qiu went to Yunxiang Restaurant, the shopkeeper was a trustworthy person, and there was a souvenir from Mr. Chen Qiaofu. The four rabbits brought by Shao Qiu got a reasonable price.

The price of the rabbit is neither high nor low, because it is alive, so it costs 250 yuan a piece.

The rabbit brought by Shaoqiu was fat and strong, and the shopkeeper liked it very much.

Shao Qiu got a tael of silver.

Still feel less.

But at least, it's better than being penniless. The only people who can get money in exchange for money are going up the mountain to hunt wild animals. Others, even if they think about it, they don't have the funds to operate.

Shao Qiu took a tael of silver and bought rice.

Ordinary rice costs two cents a catty.

The worst rice costs only a penny a catty.

Shaoqiu saw that the low-quality rice was already moldy, so he immediately gave up.

I bought better rice for three Wen a catty.

He had a lot of strength and bought fifty catties at once.

Then I went to buy pork. Although wild animals are delicious, you can’t eat wild animals. Pork is also acceptable, but it’s expensive.

Lean meat costs fifteen Wen a catty, and pork belly costs seven or eight Wen a catty.

Shao Qiu looked at the bone placed beside him, and said, "Boss, how do you sell this bone?"

The meat on the bones was scraped clean and put aside, probably no one wanted it.

But when Shaoqiu bought it back, he could make soup to drink.

Bones are very filling!

Seeing Shaoqiu's tattered clothes, the boss was not very happy to say it, but Shaoqiu was carrying a bag of rice and felt quite strong. The boss was a little apprehensive, so he said, "Three pennies a catty."

Three pennies?so cheap!

Although he knew that pig bones might be cheaper, Shaoqiu was still surprised.

There are more than [-] catties of pork bones on the table, "Boss, I bought them all, can I have less."

"Then I'll give you two cents!" No one wanted it anyway.

"Okay, boss, wrap it all up for me!"

No more, no less, exactly twenty catties of bones.

It feels weightless in the hand.

Shaoqiu was born with supernatural power, so holding a hundred catties in his hand was a piece of cake.

I bought these things and spent almost two hundred Wen at once.

This money is spent fast enough!

But Shao Qiu knew that this was necessary.

Shaoqiu continued to go shopping, bought flour and seasonings, and bought a pair of shoes for his mother, Duoduo, and himself, only half of the money was left.

Shao Qiu still wanted to buy and sell a set of clothes for each person. It seems that buying a good set of common clothes is not enough, but Shao Qiu didn't want to buy too bad linen clothes, so he only bought cotton cloth and needlework. Although it is not good, at least the cotton cloth is soft and comfortable , needlework is not very expensive, he doesn't know these things, but he can learn!

In this way, there is not much money left on hand.

In the end, there was fifty Wen coins left, Shao Qiu kept it, gave Shao Niu two Wen coins for the journey, and went back in his ox cart at dusk.

When I went back, I was still the same people. After all, they were all from the same village, and the journey was far away. When I walked home, it would be dark, and I could go back for a penny. Many people were willing, but there were a few who were not willing. After wasting that penny, I walked back by myself.

Shaoqiu didn't care about these things, although he was very strong, but it would be very tiring to carry so many things back home, why not take a bullock cart and save a penny, what can he do?
