Chapter 54 054 Market Taobao
Seeing no one around, no one noticed her. Only a bamboo basket was left, and the rest quickly retracted into the space, and climbed back to the road with the bamboo basket on her back.
After struggling for a long time, I finally squeezed into the market again. This time Luo Yu was a top student and Zhen followed the two tall men in. As Aunt Zhen said, there was not much crowding.
Back at the market, Luo Yu was not in a hurry to find anyone, and walked along the flow of people, looking at the goods on both sides as he walked.
The market sells quite a variety of things, including frozen rabbits, frozen chickens, live poultry, and frozen, hard fish.
Luo Yu couldn't move when he saw the fish.
"Brother, how can I sell this fish?"
"Fifty cents a pound, how many do you want for a big girl?"
The fish seller grinned enthusiastically. His teeth were very white, but even with his dark spots, he was a bit fierce.
"It's expensive. Can it be cheaper if I buy more?"
"Forty-eight cents, no more."
"Forty-five cents, I want twenty."
"Sister, how many people are there in your family? Did you buy so much to eat?"
The fish seller was shocked.
"My family all loves to eat fish. If you look at it a lot, you can eat two fish in one meal, and you will be able to cook them all after the New Year."
The fish seller breathed a sigh of relief, "That's okay, that's right. You don't have to worry about the fish getting spoiled in the winter, just be careful not to let others steal it."
The fish seller helped Luo Yu pick fish while talking.
"What kind of fish do you want, big girl? Can I help you choose?"
"Ten grass carp, five carp, five crucian carp, more or less like that."
"Okay, sister, don't let me go, Xing, I'll get whichever one you want."
Luo Yu directed it, and the elder brother took it. Twenty fish were picked out in a short while.
No matter what the fish was, it was calculated at 45 cents per pound, and in the end Luo Yu was given a smaller crucian carp.
"You can just eat this fish. I caught it yesterday. It's fresh. Add some tofu to the crucian carp and the little soup will taste bright when you drink it."
Helped Luo Yu put the fish into the basket and paid the money. Luo Yu tried it but couldn't carry it.
This sinks!
Luo Yu closed his eyes and looked up at the fish seller, "Brother, please help me."
The fish seller's brother Yile helped Luo Yu lift the basket.
Luo Yu put the basket on his back and felt his shoulders heavy, and his elder brother let go.
"Is that okay? If not, I'll help you walk to the door."
Luo Yu waved his hand, "You can't carry anything else, but you can't carry food? You have to do it even if you don't. Today I have to carry the fish home even if I crawl."
The fish seller was even happier, "That's right. If you can't eat anything else, you have to eat it. Okay, then be careful. If you can't carry it anymore, I'll help you get it at the door or put it in the car."
"No, I'll do it myself."
After saying that, Luo Yu left with the bamboo basket on his back.
After walking a few steps, he lowered his head and saw that there was a seller of coarse cloth. Luo Yu stopped again and said, "Auntie, here is a piece of coarse cloth."
The cloth seller looked up and saw a smiling little girl standing in front of her.
"Girl, are you buying cloth? How much?"
"How to sell it?"
"One foot of cloth costs one dollar, no tickets required."
"Come ten feet."
Seeing Luo Yu buying so much, the aunt burst into laughter and quickly pulled ten feet of cloth for Luo Yu.
"Can it be gray?"
"Okay, I won't pick. Madam, do you have any cloth heads here?"
"Yes, is this okay?"
"Okay, that's it."
"Then you can pay fifty cents."
A total of ten yuan and fifty cents, which Luo Yu gave me happily.
Then the aunt put the cloth on the bamboo basket and left with the cloth in her hand. With the cloth blocking the way, Luo Yu took two steps and took one fish into the space. After taking ten steps, he took another fish into the space. When he turned a corner and walked to the other end of the market, there were only three fish left in the basket.
Then Luo Yu wanted to buy everything she saw. She felt that everything was lacking at home. She even bought two pairs of hand-sewn cotton shoes.
After a while, the basket on my back was full again.
Then Luo Yu moved into the space bit by bit. When he met Director Xu, Luo Yu had three more cabbages in the basket on his back.
"What did the director buy?"
Director Xu approached Luo Yu and whispered: "I bought five kilograms of meat, do you want it? If you want it, hurry up, it's right in front."
Luo Yu's eyes turned green when he heard it was meat, and he ran forward.
These days, I am not active in eating meat and have ideological problems. Meat is not easy to buy.
There is no meat ticket in the city, and even if there is, it won’t be your turn if you arrive late.
Meat stalls are easy to find, and they are definitely the busiest places in the market.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Luo Yu also wanted to imitate his aunt and push through the crowd in front of him, but he waited for a long time and no one moved, and even the people in front of him turned around and cursed.
Knowing that he was wrong, Luo Yu did not retaliate, smiled, apologized, and said nice things. With a few words, he made the old man in front of him happy, and when it was his turn, he reached back and pulled her in.
"Weigh this girl. How many kilograms does she buy?"
Luo Yu asked with a smile: "Can I buy more? My sister-in-law is in confinement and just wants to eat meat."
"What about confinement care? You need to buy more, otherwise the baby will suffer if he doesn't breastfeed. Wu'er, weigh this baby more."
As soon as I saw him, I knew he was familiar with the meat stall owner, otherwise I wouldn't be able to tell him his last name.
The big brother who sold the meat agreed and said, "Is five pounds okay?"
Luo Yu nodded quickly, "Okay, okay, thank you, brother."
One cut removed exactly five kilograms, and it looked like the eldest brother was an expert.
The weighed meat was thrown on the chopping board, and Luo Yu quickly paid for it.
A handful of change was divided into two cents. The big brother who sold the meat was very patient. By the time Luo Yu counted six yuan, he had already weighed four or five pieces.
Luo Yu curled his lips.
It’s 40 to 50 cents more expensive than what’s sold in grocery stores, but it’s not a loss if you don’t need a ticket.
After paying the money and thanking the uncle, Luo Yu happily carried the meat and continued walking.
Get some needles and thread, you won't be afraid to put this thing away, just leave it without eating grass or food, it will be needed sooner or later.
There is a jar for soaking pickles. I want to buy more but I can’t carry it, so buy one first and use it together.
She has both vests and long johns. The ones sold here are all big-flowered ones. It hurts the eyes of vulgar people, so forget it.
There are three kilograms each of wide and fine vermicelli. Only people from the Northeast know how fragrant the pork stew vermicelli is.
Let’s get some eggs. Two pounds is enough. I’m afraid I won’t be able to take them back if I buy too much.
He carefully put the eggs into the jar, and just as he was about to take them back, there was a person standing next to him.
"Give it to me."
Luo Yu looked up and saw that it was Xi Beizhan.
I saw that he was also carrying a bamboo basket on his back, and he was also carrying two linen bags in his hands. I don't know what they contained, but they looked quite heavy.
"Can you take that much?"
Xi Beizhan smiled, "What the hell, in the army you have to run ten kilometers even if you carry a fifty kilogram weight."
After saying that, he put the bag in his hand on the ground and reached out to pick up a jar.
"Buy some more eggs. They can be stored in winter. These are not enough for you to eat for a few days."
"The expenses will be paid tomorrow. Once I have the tickets, I will go to the grocery store to buy them."
"Okay, I also have the tickets in hand, and I will give them to you when the time comes."
He picked up the jar and hooked his fingers. The hemp bag was lifted up with just one finger. Luo Yu stared at it.
What a lot of strength.
Luo Yu lowered his head and sighed.
All his strength was wasted. If he were still in the army and practiced his skills in a few years, he might be able to move up the ranks.
