Wu Wulang and the others didn't even have a scale, and in the end it was the lady who took a scale from the kitchen and weighed it in taels.
They dug a lot of yams from this clump, and they had just dug it not long ago, so it was very heavy, weighing twenty-five catties and six taels in total.
Man Bao was very generous and said that the six taels were also given to them.
The lady glanced at Zhou Wulang and saw that he had no objection, so she knew that the little girl could make decisions, so she smiled, calculated the money and gave them to them, saying: "Next time if there are yams, I will also send them to this house. , the old lady in our house loves to eat yam cake, no matter how much it is."
Zhou Wulang agreed happily, thinking that it would be more profitable to sell the medicine to wealthy families.
Man Bao thought so too, and still suspected that the amiable shopkeeper uncle was a liar.
The system said: "Host, the price given by shopkeeper Zheng is reasonable."
Man Bao asked, "Is the price given by the Fu family unreasonable?"
The system said: "Reasonable, don't say it is twenty yuan, it is fifty yuan, as long as you can sell it, it is reasonable."
The system said: "Yams can be planted, but there is no artificial cultivation in your area, so dried yams can be bought from medicine shops, but raw yams are not easy to get."
"Furthermore, Jishitang buys medicines for business. They are also in the business of medicinal materials. They buy medicinal materials from you. In addition to using them for themselves, they can also resell them to other pharmacies or higher-level pharmacies," the system said: "Dried yams The ratio in the prescription is usually two or three renminbi, I scanned it at the pharmacy, and their price is one yam and one penny.”
Man Bao sat on the cart and counted with his fingers. One catty is sixteen taels, one tael is ten qian, and one qian is one penny...
Man Bao counted, counted, his eyes gradually widened, and shopkeeper Zheng sold 20 Wen a catty of dried yam for 160 Wen as soon as he changed hands.
Man Bao couldn't help muttering: "Profitable businessman!"
When Wu Lang, who had just finished the candy business with Qiuyue, heard it, he immediately covered her mouth and whispered: "My little ancestor, how could anyone say that about my brother? I spared her a few candies. How can she be a traitor?" gone?"
Man Bao tore off his hand and said, "I didn't talk about you, I was talking about shopkeeper Zheng."
Zhou Wulang thought for a while, then nodded and said: "It's quite treacherous. It's worth 20 cents for everything. He also charges us 20 cents for what he does. I won't sell it to him next time."
Wu Wulang went to feel sorry for the yam he gave away again, and said, "You shouldn't have given him the yam just now, it's so good to sell it, one yam weighs more than a catty."
Man Bao turned his back to him and stopped talking.
Wu Wulang didn't mind, he carried her to the cart and sat down, happily said: "It doesn't matter, anyway, today is a bumper harvest, Man Bao, let's go buy meat, buy more."
Man Bao ignored him and was still talking to Ke Ke in his head.
The system reminded Man Bao when she said that shopkeeper Zheng was a profiteer, "Think about the book in your arms."
So Man Bao is struggling, wondering whether to define shopkeeper Zheng as a profiteer.
Seeing that she was struggling enough, Keke explained: "The prices of medicines sold by pharmacies are basically the same, especially in big pharmacies like Jishitang, the prices of medicines are basically the same everywhere."
Man Bao was puzzled, and then what
The system said: "The cost of transportation is very high. For example, if he wants to transport a batch of medicinal materials from here to Hebei Road, it will take about two months on the road. Money is needed, as well as workers' wages, and the pharmacy must also be profitable... "
After Man Bao calculated, he felt much more comfortable.
The system said: "Of course, medicinal materials are still huge profits, but the price he gave you is reasonable, because this purchase price is a common purchase price. So host, for your benefit, I suggest that this kind of medicine can be used for daily meals in the future. It is a very good idea to sell the medicinal materials directly to the pharmacy without having to send them to the pharmacy.”
It also gave an example, "For example, Centella asiatica is light, but it is everywhere, and it is sold at a good price, because this herb is basically purchased locally, digested locally, and there will be no transportation in the middle." Cost, the price given is generous.”
Man Bao asked it curiously, "What other medicinal materials can be used in daily diet?"
Ke Ke said: "It's up to the host to discover this."
Man Bao rolled his eyes, thinking that if he had time, he still had to take Keke to the mountains for a walk.
I found good things from the mountain twice in a row, not only can I earn points, but I can also earn copper coins. The mountain is now a treasure mountain in Manbao's eyes.
It seems that there are many treasures hidden in it.
Man Bao made up his mind and started humming an out-of-tune song.
Zhou Wulang pushed her to buy meat.
There are not many stalls selling meat in the market. At this time, people don’t like to eat pork, but mutton is the most. Moreover, it is winter and the weather is starting to be cold. More people eat mutton to warm their bodies.
Wu Wulang led a group of children into the mutton stall, picked a piece, and asked the stall owner to cut two catties.
Man Bao was in charge of giving the money, and he used the fifty Wen given by Zhou Dalang.
After buying the meat, everyone got together happily, and felt that the county town was not so attractive anymore. They wanted to go home and eat meat!
So they didn't go shopping anymore, they quickly shuttled around the county town with their carts, and went back to the grain store to find Zhou Dalang and his brothers.
There was no one in the grain store, and the group turned around and went to the cloth village not far away.
Man Bao and Da Ya Er Ya were the fastest runners, and as soon as they got into the cloth shop, they saw Zhou Zhou Lang holding a ball of cotton and bargaining with the shopkeeper.
Zhou Zhoulang was hesitant at first, when he saw Man Bao rushing in like a calf, Man Bao grew a little taller after spring today.
Maybe it's because of the good food, or maybe it's because of heredity. Her height is already half a head taller than that of three heads of the same age. The clothes that were just resized by her mother last year have become smaller again. Now a part of her wrist is exposed, and her hand is stretched forward , Half of the forearm is exposed, I don’t feel anything now, and I will suffer from the cold when the weather gets colder in another month.
Zhou Zhoulang gritted his teeth, and said to the shopkeeper: "Add another catty, and add five feet of cloth."
The storekeeper responded with a smile, glanced at the child who rushed in, and said with a smile: "Your little lady looks really good."
Tuesday Lang smiled at the other party, reached out and touched the heads of Man Bao and Er Ya.
After buying cloth and cotton, Zhou Zhoulang was reluctant to eat in the county. He asked a nearby store for some boiled water, and directly soaked the cakes for them to eat.
Because Datou and the others came in temporarily this morning, the dry food they brought was not enough, so Qian gave them an extra handful of copper coins, so that they could buy some food in the county.
They didn't expect to sell the medicine so smoothly, and it's only after noon, so Zhou Dalang and Zhou Zhoulang tightened their belts and planned to go home.
It's not cheap to buy food outside.
Although it was soaked dry biscuit, Man Bao also ate it with relish. Seeing that her elder brother and second brother were only pouring water into their mouths but not eating, she slipped off the cart, turned around and was about to run to buy sesame seed cakes.
But she was picked up by Zhou Dalang just after she ran two steps. He said with a straight face, "Don't run, what if someone takes her away? Sit down."
