Chapter 133 The first money

Wang Dalang took Wang Saburo, Wang Shilang and Xiao Ayu to Nanhe Town together.

Mrs. Wang said she didn't care about them, but in fact she sent Wang Chuanman to follow, for fear that they would be bullied on the way.

A few little guys don't know, but Danzi does, but Danzi doesn't plan to tell them.

Nanhe Town is not very big, there are only three main streets in total, the largest one is not allowed to set up stalls, the other two main streets one sells all kinds of vegetables, and the other sells miscellaneous things.

Most of the things sold in the stalls are cheaper than those in the shops, but not too much cheaper, otherwise the shops will cause trouble.

Wang Dalang was carrying a large back basket, Wang Sanlang was holding a big stick in his hand, which was covered with thatch, and Wang Shilang was just carrying a basket, which contained candied haws.

Xiao Ayu was very capable this time, but she didn't let her brothers hug her, and followed along by herself.

Several older brothers didn't agree, but they couldn't resist Xiao Ayu, so they had to follow her.

They went to the 3rd Street. This street has no name. People generally call it Nanhe 3rd Street.

Maybe because of the disaster, there were not many vendors and not many people buying things on Nanhe San Street.

They quickly found a vacant seat. The left side was selling steamed buns, the right side was selling small vegetables, and there was another selling roasted sweet potatoes and fried chestnuts on the opposite side, as well as handmade straw sandals.

When I saw several children coming to set up a stall, they all looked over.

Wang Dalang put down the back basket and took out a straw mat that they had woven together.

The grass and wood mats are spread on the ground, and then the wild fruits in the back basket are taken out. The wild fruits are all red and bright, which is particularly gratifying.

Some of the ones placed below were crushed, and Wang Dalang handed them to his younger siblings: "You guys eat them."

Wang Saburo and Wang Shilang shook their heads again and again: "Give it to Sister Ayu, we won't eat it."

If it was picked by the family to eat, it would be fine for them to eat it, but now it is used for business, and they are reluctant to eat it when it is sold.

But for my sister, I was willing to eat it.

Little Ayu didn't eat it: "Ayu is not hungry now, Ayu doesn't want to eat, let's keep it. If anyone wants to buy it, give them a taste."

"Yes, we can give people a taste, or sister Ayu is smart, no wonder even Mr. Hu praises you!"

Now some of their family members are studying with Mr. Hu, so everyone calls Mrs. Hu as Mr. Hu.

A few people around were still curious about what they were selling, and when they saw them laying out the wild fruits, they all shook their heads.

"Did you grow the fruit yourself? Why do I look at the wild fruit outside? I'm afraid no one will buy it." Maybe, let's go back early and change something to sell."

Compared with the village, the natural economic conditions of the people in the town are much better, but they are not taken advantage of. Like this kind of wild fruit, unless it is a delicious wild vegetable, they are not very good at spending money.

These days, fruit is not a necessity, it doesn’t matter if you eat it or not.

Xiao Ayu said, "Uncle, our fruit is delicious. My brothers and I planted it together. You can try it!"

After saying that, Xiao Ayu took out one of the crushed fruit, ran over, and handed it to the bun seller.

The bun seller knew that it was the mark of being crushed. He didn't feel that the little guy was teasing him, but he didn't reach out to pick it up.

"I don't buy your fruit, so don't give it to me, eat it yourself."

"You don't have to buy it, I'll give you something to eat, thank you." Xiao Ayu smiled sweetly, "Uncle, thank you for reminding us that Grandma said that when others help you, you must be grateful."

Seeing how the little guy was staring at him, the seller of buns couldn’t refuse, so he had to take the fruit. He thought about this kind of fruit, which he liked to eat when he was a child, and remembered the sweet and sour taste.

Adults generally don’t like to eat things they ate when they were children, because with age, tastes change a lot.

Especially the older you are, the more good things you have eaten, and naturally you will not look down on those little snacks.

Xiao Ayu looked at the uncle who sold buns without blinking.

Although he didn't say a word, the uncle who sold the steamed buns thought that she might want to try it on the spot.

Then try it.

The uncle, who was ready to be sour, wiped the red fruit casually and put it in his mouth.

The people in the surrounding stalls all stared at the uncle, mainly to see how he was sour.

There was no sound, but the uncle's eyes suddenly widened, and then his mouth snorted a few times, almost being restrained and the saliva flowing out of his mouth.

"Cai Niu, how is it? Is it particularly sour? I didn't like to eat this kind of fruit when I was a child. This one looks bigger than the one I usually eat, but it's probably sour, right?" Someone asked with a smile, no matter what. What are the expressions of the children.

Selling buns is called Cai Niu, but after listening to this, he swallowed the fruit in his mouth, and then waved his hand: "Don't say it, this fruit is not sour at all, it is even very sweet, almost like the sugar at home! "

The sugar they usually buy is not particularly sweet, and the price of sweeter sugar is higher. Ordinary people usually only buy ordinary sweetness, and they are reluctant to use it.

Everyone felt unbelievable when they heard that this fruit could be as sweet as sugar.

How can fruit be as sweet as sugar?

"Cai Niu, are you and these children relatives? Are you acting for everyone here?" The old man selling straw sandals looked unhappy and said in a hoarse voice, "It's useless for you to show us the show, none of us will buy this. fruit."

Cai Niu's face turned red: "Who cares about whether you buy it or not, what am I doing, am I full for a day? Don't buy it, don't talk nonsense there, I've eaten it and it's sweet Yes, I'm going to buy it!"

In order to prove that he really knows how to buy it, Cai Niu asked the children, "How much are you wild fruits?"

"One penny..." They don't have scales at home, so they can't measure the weight.

When    came out, they negotiated 10 coins per penny.

【Treasure, you quote 5 coins for a penny】

Xiao Ayu said without thinking: "Uncle Cai Niu, we have 5 coins for this one! You are the first to buy our fruit, and we will give you one more!"

Cai Niu Gang felt that 5 pieces of a penny were too expensive. These wild fruits are everywhere, even if they were bigger, even 5 pieces of one hand would not be satisfied.

But the little doll said all of this, he would be ashamed if he didn't buy it.

had to bite the bullet and said, "Well, I'll buy a penny first." He planned to take these fruits back to the children.

Just can't tell his wife that he bought it himself, otherwise his wife will definitely talk about it.

When    received a penny, the children of Lao Wang's family were so excited that this was the first penny they had earned!

And at this time, Wang Saburo and Wang Shilang also hurriedly inserted the candied haws.
