Chapter 24 Barter
The fishermen with poor intentions were frightened and turned around and rushed towards the sea.
The vendors waiting to collect the fish were so anxious that they almost cursed, "What's going on? What's going on! Our fish! Are you making a mistake? What's the thing..."
The farce outside the East City soon spread throughout Chaozhou Prefecture. Everyone also knew that a great girl came to Chaozhou, but she just didn't know her true appearance.
Tang Ning and the other two didn't care about so many things. When the donkey cart drove out of the west city gate, Qiu Jingming asked, "How is it? Is it fun at sea?"
Because Tang Ning is skilled and brave, he can only change the danger to fun. Judging from her reaction, she is obviously very satisfied with the trip.
Sure enough, Tang Ning smiled happily and said excitedly: "You don't know how vast the sea is! It's endless, and sea fishing is also very interesting. You don't know what the fish hook will be when you put it down. Some fish have strange shapes and look like poisonous, but in fact it is indeed a rare delicacy, which is valuable!"
"Miss Ning, how do you know?" Lu Dazhuang couldn't help but interrupt.
Tang Ning raised his chin proudly, "Of course I asked the fishermen. There are so many people at the sea, and there are always warm-hearted people. Even if the fishermen don't tell me, there are still soldiers from the patrol!"
"That's right!" Lu Dazhuang nodded and said with great envy: "It's better to be a navy army! It's very knowledgeable."
Tang Ning shook his head, "It's not like this. They are always on the sea, facing the vast sea, and it's okay to watch it once or twice. Every day, who can stand it! But they not only watch it every day, but also wait for battle every day. Once they fight, they either live or die. After all, in the water, the chance of surviving is much smaller."
Lu Dazhuang fell into deep thoughts, and after a while, he smiled and said, "Miss Ning is still looking far away, I didn't think so much! Forget it, I'd better do my job well. By the way, where will we go in a while?"
Tang Ning looked at Qiu Jingming and solicited opinions, "Chenjiazhuang?"
"Can."
The group turned around toward Chenjiazhuang. It was the time to go to the market. Chenjiazhuang was quite lively. Local villagers brought out their own chickens, ducks and various eggs to sell them, as well as some vegetables, fruits and melons. It is really pleasant to see fruits and vegetables in the winter.
Tang Ning didn't have enough eyes to look along the way.
When they first arrived, they did not find a place to set up stalls, but learned about the rules here with the vendors around them, and then moved the bathtub off the donkey cart before they made sure there was no problem. In order not to cause riots, Qiu Jingming insisted on moving things with Dazhuang this time. Although the two of them did not work hard, they still need to do superficial skills.
The large bathtub was slapped there and immediately attracted the attention of a lot of people.
"Brother, what are you selling?" an old lady asked curiously.
Tang Ning opened the bucket lid directly, and the group of people immediately took a breath of air conditioning, and then shouted in surprise, "Fish! Or sea fish! How to sell it?"
Tang Ning had just heard the vendors discussing the price of fish with his downwind just outside the city, and he said calmly: "I sell it at the purchase price of the harbor here, and I don't bargain with you. A yellow croaker of two to three pounds is fifty cents, and a yellow croaker of more than three pounds is worth thirty cents per pound, and other types are thirty cents per pound."
If she hadn't caught a group of yellow croakers, she wouldn't have to sell them at such a low price. However, it wouldn't be considered a low price. At most, the price would be low.
Sure enough, when everyone heard this price, everyone surrounded it. There were few fishing in the villages on this side of Xicheng. If you want to eat fish, you would go to the river to catch it. If you want to eat seafood like this, you could go to restaurants and restaurants in the city, or go to fishing villages outside Dongcheng. Maybe you could get a bargain. Few people sold seafood at big markets like Tang Ning, and the price was not high.
Even if someone questioned it, there was no problem, because the fish in the bathtub was still alive, and it was obvious that they had just been salvaged.
For a time, this place became the most lively place in the market, and someone hurried back to the village to inform others of coming.
Tang Ning and the other two were not in a hurry, and they took out two to three kilograms of yellow croaker first and picked them up as they please.
He always stared at the person selling food at the market, but Qiu Jingming found one. He and Tang Ning decided for a moment and left.
When Qiu Jingming came back again, he said to the two of them: "That man is willing to exchange fish with us. I asked in the city yesterday. Here, there is nine pounds of brown rice, twenty-five pounds of white rice, fifteen pounds of Chen rice, and the price of beans and brown rice is not expensive."
"It's not just not expensive! It's so cheap that it's beyond my imagination!" Tang Ning said exaggeratedly.
After experiencing prices everywhere, the food here is so cheap that it makes her urge to hoard food madly.
Qiu Jingming was amused and said, "This is Lingnan. You can grow food all year round. Some grow three seasons a year, but there are no major natural disasters. Naturally, the food price is not much higher. After I bargained with the other party, he agreed to get a penny cheaper."
Because he urgently needed food, Tang Ning finally agreed to the young man that he wanted all the food in his hand and there were fish trading.
The other party was even happier than her, so he ran back to the village immediately. After a while, he brought a bunch of people out, all of whom were pushing wheelbarrows, with three or four sacks of grain on it, a total of fifteen bags and six hundred kilograms, all of which were brown rice and beans, worth 5,400 cigarettes.
Tangning didn't have enough fish to trade with the other party. The final result was that Tangning gave them all the fish and bathtubs, and the rest was settled with copper plates. In this way, Tangning only had to pay a few hundred cents.
For her, this transaction was like making a fortune in vain. She could easily get more than a dozen large sacks of food after spending only a few hundred yuan.
They happened to have a donkey cart, so they moved the food directly to the donkey cart, and Tang Ning drove the cart back first and then took the second trip.
Those who changed to sea fish from them immediately sent the fish into the city and sold it to restaurants or people in the city, making another profit from it, which was a great joy.
When the food was sent back to Fenggu Village, everyone was so excited that they almost cried. When they learned that Tang Ning exchanged the sea fish, they didn't spend much money at all, Tang Zheng and the others immediately expressed their intention to go out to sea with them.
Tang Ning refused without thinking, "Will you owl water? Can you seasick? Can you stand the weather at sea? Or build your home honestly, don't think it's all one time. If you have this free time, it's better to practice two more moves with Dazhuang. If you go out like this, you won't be bullied because of your weakness! When the shop is ready, you should do business and want to do farm work. Do farm work, are you still worried about having nothing to do?"
