The sky in Linjia Village at 6 o'clock in the morning is not yet completely bright. At this time, Lin Chen has been called to get up for breakfast, because today he is going to the city with his father to sell game.

After eating breakfast, Lin Chen got in the bullock cart driven by his father and set off.

They are going to the county town today. The county town is nearly a hundred miles away from their Linjia Village. It takes about four or five hours to get there in an ox cart, so they set off early and can come back before dark in the evening. , Or if it's too late, I won't be able to come back today.

Lin Chen was half lying on the ox cart wrapped in a cotton coat. The weather in the mountain village in late autumn was still very cold. In order to prevent Lin Chen from freezing, Mother Lin gave him a big cotton jacket for winter.

As a matter of fact, he has nine-sun magical power by his body. It doesn’t matter whether he wears it or not. Nine-yang magical power is the most powerful and yang method, not to mention the temperature in autumn, which is more than ten degrees below zero. Lin Chen is fine with a single piece of clothing. .

But these mother Lin didn't know, so he still obeyed his mother's request, wrapped in a cotton coat, don't say it, it's really warm.

From Linjia Village, there is a winding mountain road almost ten kilometers long. The mountain road is not easy to walk. It takes about an hour to walk on this section of the mountain road.

After going out of the mountain road, the road will be easy to walk. The provincial road is directly connected to the county seat. Moreover, the provincial road is very wide, with two-way six-lane roads. In this era, everyone does not have much money, so the cars on the provincial roads are also Not many, the most are bullock carts and horse-drawn carts like Lin Chen and others, and these are all going to the county seat.

The bullock carts and horse carts are full of goods or grains, and you can see that they are sold in the county.

After the sun came out, the weather became warmer and warmer. Lin Chen, who was half lying on the bullock cart, fell asleep again. When he woke up, the bullock cart was already in the county seat.

"Wake up, are you hungry?" Father Lin asked, looking at Lin Chen who was waking up.

"I'm not hungry, I'm full in the morning."

"Don't worry, when you sell these hare and pheasant, dad will take you out of the restaurant for delicious food at noon."

In the county seat, ox carts are not allowed to enter the central area of ​​the county. This is done first to not affect traffic, and secondly to ensure the safety of these ox carts. After all, the central area of ​​the county is the most prosperous area with more vehicles.

Although ox carts and horse-drawn carts cannot enter the central area of ​​the county seat, there are farmer’s markets in the four corners of the county seat. The game like Lin Chen and the others can be sold at the farmer’s market. There are many restaurants and hotel purchases. Clerk, buy the necessary supplies there every day.

There are obviously more cars in the county than there are on the provincial roads. In any case, this is also a city with a population of one million. With such a large population, there will always be some people who get rich first. It is normal that there are more cars. .

Soon, Father Lin drove an ox cart to the farmer’s market east of the county seat.

Before entering the farmer's market, Lin Chen felt the fiery atmosphere of the farmer's market, the calls of various livestock, the sound of people bargaining, and the whole scene was full of enthusiasm.

As soon as the ox cart of Lin Chen's family stopped steadily, several people gathered around. These people were the back kitchen buyers of the county hotel. Their eyes were very vicious. They could tell at a glance. The ox cart pulled up. The rabbits and sets are pure wild. Whether it is the brightness of the hair or the energy of rabbits and pheasants, they are not comparable to domestic ones.

In this era, game is also very popular. People are getting richer and richer, and they begin to enjoy materially. Although domesticated meat tastes good, it is still inferior to wild and wild meat. It is more fragrant and tastes better.

What the hotel wants is word of mouth. There are many people in the county, but the competition between hotels is also fierce. If a hotel wants to attract more people to eat, in addition to the chef's cooking skills and the hotel's service, it is more important that your ingredients are good.

"My fellow, how do you sell this game?" Just after Lin Chen got out of the car, a middle-aged fat man with a black briefcase asked.

"What price do you give, let's listen first, we are all game meat, we don't sell it if the price is low."

Father Lin hadn't spoken yet, Lin Chen spoke first. Judging from his previous life experience, the person in front of him is the master of no money, and the few people next to him can't compare with the fat man asking for a price.

"Hehe, are you little guy quite smart." Hearing Lin Chen's words, the fat man laughed too.

"My fellow, can you touch your rabbit?" the middle-aged fat man asked to Father Lin.

"Yes, you can check it at will. It's not game we don’t need money, and we don’t need to give it to you for free." Father Lin is very confident of his own game, whether it’s rabbit meat or chicken, he has eaten it. The taste and texture are real. There is nothing to say, it is simply not comparable to a domesticated rabbit and an old hen. He is also very curious sometimes, why eat game at the same time, before eating is not as good as now.

got the affirmative answer from Father Lin, the fat man was not welcome, opened the cage and picked up a rabbit casually.

"This rabbit is not light, at least ten catties." The fat man said while lifting both ears of the hare, and the rabbit that was lifted up was kicking his legs in the fat man's hands.

Feeling the powerful struggle of the rabbit in his hand, the fat man knew that this rabbit is 100% wild, and the wildness of domestication is not so great.

Hare weighing more than ten kilograms is rare. Seeing that there are almost 70 or 80 pheasants in the car, there are more than 20 pheasants. This is not to be missed. The spicy rabbit meat in their hotel is unique, and there is also a small stir-fry. Chicken, with these game, it can attract more repeat customers to the hotel.

"You rabbit, I'll give you twelve yuan a catty, all inclusive, if the pheasant is ten yuan a catty, what do you think, if it's OK, let's go to the scale, I will pay in cash." The fat man thought for a while, very outspoken. Said to Father Lin.

"Good, deal."

Father Lin hadn't spoken yet, Lin Chen readily agreed. The price is not low anymore. In the past 21st century, the price of hares was about the same.

How much does pork cost a catty now? A catty of pork is only about six yuan, and now there are two catties of pork for a catty of hare meat, what else is he dissatisfied with.

"Okay, since my children have agreed, then the price is overweight."

Father Lin is not stupid. The price he sold last time was one-third lower than this. You must be content and not be too greedy. Calculated at this price, the game of his car can almost sell for nearly 12,000 yuan, you know, this is more than 10,000 yuan in 2000, which is very valuable.

"Let's go then, go over there and weigh it."

Seeing that the fat man gave such a high price, the few people next to him had no choice but to shook their heads and left. They couldn't afford the price.

The fat man did not come alone, he came by car, and there was a driver watching the car.

There are 80 hares, with a total weight of 850 catties and twelve yuan per catty, making a total of ten thousand two hundred. Thirty pheasants, a total of two hundred and forty catties, a catty of ten yuan, that is two thousand four hundred yuan, the hare and pheasant together bought a total of more than twelve thousand six hundred yuan.

"Come on, this stack is ten thousand. You count it. This is two thousand and six, a total of twelve thousand and six." After loading all the pheasants and hares in his car, the fat man took it from his black briefcase. A wad of hundred-yuan bills was drawn out, and then twenty-six of them were counted and handed to Father Lin.

Father Lin is also welcome, but the money was ordered in person. This is more than 10,000 yuan, which is the net income of the family for almost three years. It is clear that there is nothing wrong with it in person.

"Uncle, do you want game anymore?"

Lin Chen didn't care about his father who had some money but turned his head, deliberately asking the fat man cutely.

"Yes, as long as you have me, but the premise is that the quality is the same as this batch." Looking at Lin Chen, who was pretending to be cute, the fat man said with a smile.

Fatty isn’t stupid. Don’t look at this batch of game he bought at a high price, but when he arrives at their hotel, he will have at least five or six times the profit when he changes hands. The profit is second, and the most important thing is to keep a large number of repeat customers.

The hotels in the county town are not easy to do now. The competition is too great. There are too many hotels, and the market is so big. The more you occupy, the less.

"Okay, we will send you a batch in a few days."

"Oh, what you said is true? You still have it in your house?"

Fatty originally thought that Lin Chen was asking casually, but he didn't expect him to be serious. If the hotel has such a batch of game every few days, it will be of great help to the business of the hotel. Pheasants and hares are not the same as domesticated and wild ones. The most important thing is that wild ones are not easy to catch, and their numbers are generally not very large.

"Well, yes, we are from the Lin Family Village, my name is Lin Chen, and our game is captured from the mountains."

I heard that it was Linjiacun, and the fat man understood it too. Linjia Village is the largest village in Guang S County and one of the poorest villages. It is backed by mountains and has inconvenient transportation.

It wouldn’t be surprising if it was a fat man from Lin’s Village. Lin’s Village was backed by mountains, not to mention pheasants and hares in the mountains, even tigers and bears.

"Come on, here is my uncle's business card. There will be game in the future. You can find me here or go to the hotel." The fat man took out a business card and handed it to Lin Chen. The fat guy liked Lin Chen's cleverness.

"Okay, every three days from now on, as long as it doesn't rain, we will come here once." Lin Chen took the Fatty's business card and looked at it and said.

The business card says Royal Kitchen Hotel, UU Reading www.uukanshu. com purchasing manager Li Changjiang, below is a phone number.

Royal Kitchen Hotel? Judging by the situation of the fat man and the refreshing energy of paying out, the scale is certainly not small. Lin Chen calculated that his initial start-up funds would definitely fall on this fat man.

"Okay, every three days at noon, as long as it doesn't rain, I will wait for you here." The fat man took it seriously.

"Boss, there is nothing wrong, the amount is correct." Father Lin also counted the money at this time, and checked the money again. The amount was correct and there was no fake money.

"Okay, since there is no error, then even if our transaction is completed, I can leave. I don't recognize anything that happens after I leave. Boy, don't forget that we will still be trading here in three days. "After finishing talking, the fat man got in the car and left. By this time, it's time for dinner. He wants to try the taste of this batch of game.

"Go son, Dad will take you to the restaurant and eat delicious food." Father Lin said to Lin Chen happily after he collected the money.

This more than 10,000 yuan can greatly alleviate the distressed financial situation of the family. It is my son's credit to make so much money, and it is also right to take him to eat delicious food.

"Don't worry about eating, dad, don't forget, there is half of me in it. Let's go shopping first, and we won't delay eating after we finish shopping."

Lin Chen is not interested in going to restaurants or anything. He will buy a lot of things when he enters the city this time. Not only do he need to buy materials for building greenhouses, but also some medicinal materials. These medicinal materials are used for all kinds of feed and bait.

If you want to catch more game next time, you still need to rely on these specially configured bait.
