Chapter 128 Let’s make tofu together!
After walking out of Juweixuan, Luo Fengtang couldn't help but ask Yang Ruoqing: "Qing'er, I heard you calculate the account just now. We bought the dog to the restaurant and we really lost money. Why not skin it and carry it? Go to the tile market to sell?"
Yang Ruoqing knew he would ask this.
"Hey, do you think I want to come to the restaurant to do this loss-making business? If I really want to send him to Wa City, I will definitely alert Butcher Chen!"
At that time, the dog stealing thing will happen Wouldn’t it be exposed?
"Three hundred, just three hundred. You can buy a lot of things. Anyway, we just got the money for free!" she added.
Luo Fengtang nodded in agreement and followed Yang Ruoqing forward.
In a quiet corner of an alley, Yang Ruoqing gave Luo Fengtang one hundred and fifty cents.
"Qing'er, why did you give me the money? I don't want it!" He frowned and stuffed the money back.
Yang Ruoqing deliberately made a serious face and said: "What do you mean? You don't care about the money?"
Luo Fengtang shook his head repeatedly, his face flushed: "No, no, how could I..."
Yang Ruoqing smiled: "I was teasing you, look at you, how anxious are you?"
She put one hundred pennies back into his hand, "Tangyaozi, you must take this money. You deserve it, because that dog is the result of our joint efforts!"
Luo Fengtang looked at the heavy copper coins in his hand, then looked up again Looking at the bright eyes of the girl in front of him, he pursed his lips.
"Qing'er, I didn't do anything, I just used a little brute force..."
He said muffledly.
It was she who caught the dog.
She is also the one doing the business negotiation and bargaining with the restaurant people.
He was just following her, like a wooden stake.
It would be a shame to hold this money!
The boy opened his mouth and was about to speak out when his shoulder was held down by the girl's hand.
Yang Ruoqing suddenly smiled when she looked at Luo Fengtang's tangled and ashamed expression.
As if she could see through his mind, she said in a clear voice: "Tangyazi, don't have those silly thoughts anymore. If you weren't here, what would I do in these thirty miles? Get the Black Tiger?”
“If you weren’t behind me, support me. , I have been bullied by Song Buying and those people!”
“So, we are teammates, we just have different divisions of labor. We are all contributing, so we have to share the results equally, if you insist. No, then I will be really sad..."
"I want it, I want it, Qing'er, don't be sad..." Luo Fengtang said hurriedly.
Seeing that he finally accepted it, Yang Ruoqing nodded with satisfaction.
"Just accept it, Tang Yazi. It's getting colder and colder this year, and it's hard to find wild beasts in the mountains. Why don't you just come and make tofu with us, and we'll share the money we make, okay? "How?"
"Making tofu?" Luo Fengtang was surprised and happy at the same time.
"But, I don't know what to do..." He scratched his head and said with an embarrassed look on his face.
"It's okay, I can do it as long as I can do it. You know, my father's legs are not good and he can't do any physical work. This tofu can't be transported to the town. If you can join, that would be great! You What do you say?”
“Yes, I’m happy to!” Luo Fengtang nodded vigorously.
For the third time, he took out the one hundred and fifty coins in his arms and gave it to Yang Ruoqing, and his attitude was very determined.
"Qing'er, take this money and buy soybeans or something. We can't make tofu from scratch!"
Yang Ruoqing looked at the money in her hand and couldn't laugh or cry!
"How about this? I'll charge you one hundred cents, which will be regarded as your investment fee. You can keep the remaining fifty cents for yourself. That's it!"
"Okay! "Luo Fengtang finally put the ten cents of money into his pocket.
"Qing'er, what should we do next?"
Yang Ruoqing clapped her hands and said happily: "Our dog has been sold and the tofu business has been settled. What's next? , let’s go to Wa City to transfer Let’s see if we can buy some soybeans at a low price to make tofu!”
“Okay!” Luo Fengtang leaned over and picked up the empty bucket at his feet, and the two of them talked and laughed towards the tiles. Walk in the direction of the city.
At the entrance of Wa City, there is a salesman's load parked, and many women and girls are surrounding it.
"What is that for sale? I'll go take a look too!"
Yang Ruoqing raised her feet and ran over there.
At first glance, it turns out that they are here to buy needlework, red headbands and flowers that the girls wear.
It is a woman's nature to love beauty, and Yang Ruoqing is no exception. At that moment, her eyes lit up.
I squeezed into the crowd and took a look.
Being used to the dazzling hair accessories in modern society, this was the first time she saw the pure silk flowers of ancient women.
The person who tied the flowers really has a pair of skillful hands!
These colorful flowers look just like real ones!
Some are like azaleas, some are like chrysanthemums, and some are like camellias...
Depending on the age and family background of the woman, the color and pattern of the materials used are also different.
Yang Ruoqing fell in love with a pink camellia at first sight.
So I asked the salesman: "How do you sell this camellia?"
"Four cents a flower!" said the salesman.
Yang Ruoqing stuck out her tongue secretly.
“Can it be cheaper?”
“Little girl, those flowers are tied with silk yarn, so they are not cheap!” said the salesman.
Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips, just a little bit of gauze material as big as the palm of her hand!
Not a good deal!
Putting down the silk flower in her hand, she picked up a head flower next to her that had a color and pattern similar to blue and white porcelain.
Gently stroke the surface of the head flower with your fingers, it is smooth, delicate, soft and moist.
It should be tied with silk.
This flower is simple, elegant, and very suitable for a mother to wear!
Yang Ruoqing then asked the salesman: "How do you sell these flowers?"
The seller said: "The flowers are made of silk and satin, and they cost six cents each!"
"Why are each one more expensive than the other?" A woman next to her smacked her tongue.
The salesman said: "These silk flowers all come in from Yicheng Prefecture. It is said that these flowers come from the palace! Yicheng Prefecture and our Wangjiang County Government, as well as The ladies in Susong Qianshan County nearby are all wearing this kind of flowers now!”
Yang Ruoqing smiled! He said: "It doesn't matter how many people are wearing it, you only have four and six cents for this one, it's too expensive! Make it cheaper, seven cents, I want two of them!"
The salesman didn't know whether to laugh or cry. , shook his head repeatedly: "Little girl, you are paying such a price! If these flowers are placed in prefectures and county towns, two flowers would cost more than ten cents!"
"In the area between the government office and the county seat, if a signboard falls down, it can kill two wealthy landlords! This is Qingshui Town, in the countryside. A pound of pork costs more than ten cents, and the whole family can make a tooth sacrifice!"< br>
Yang Ruoqing put the pair of camellias back.
The salesman rolled his eyes and said, "Little girl, if you really want it, how about I give you a penny?"
Yang Ruoqing shook her head, said she didn't want anything, and turned around without a trace. He walked out of the crowd without any nostalgia.
Nine coins?
I bought nine thin-skinned meat buns with lots of fillings for my two brothers. They were so full that they burped!
She came to Luo Fengtang here and greeted: "Let's go to Wa City!"
