Chapter 018 Town 2 "Yes, I heard that Brother Mancang wants to buy the test papers of previous years for Wen Ming, and the test papers can get a lot of silver. ”Zhao Ying said with interest."
Ah, I heard the eldest brother say that the eldest brother said that his uncle had a way to buy test papers, so he asked his sister-in-law to take Wenming Ping'er back to her parents' house to inquire."
Luo Youli told what he knew."
What's the way for Brother Mancang, isn't it just that he knows a few people, but maybe he can really buy a test paper for civilization."
Zhao Ying usually doesn't look down on the lazy and lazy appearance of the same village, obviously a dealer is idle all day long, and he really doesn't live up to the name of "Mancang", but he has a good nephew.The two of them said over there, but the babies on Luo Ran's side obviously didn't get along.You stare at me, I stare at you, a group of children, Luo Ran couldn't help but sigh in his heart.However, I just heard Zhao Ying's mention of Luo Wenxuan's enrollment, I don't know if my eldest brother heard it, Luo Ran turned his head to look at the silent eldest brother for a while, and sure enough, he saw that the eldest brother's expression was really lonely, but fortunately, he could adjust it after a while.Luo Wenxuan saw his little sister looking at herself, smiled and returned to normal.A few people walked while talking, and it didn't take long to reach the town.When they arrived in the town, because they each had their own things to do, when the two families were separated, Zhao Ying was still very enthusiastic and said that the next time he went to Zhao Wuzhuang as a guest, Luo Youli should be again and again.Luo Youli took a few people to Lao Zhong's place on the streets of the town first, put the farm tools he wanted to repair, and said that he would come to pick them up.also asked Luo Youli to put the cart next to his stall so that he could watch it.The old man is the person that Old Man Luo said, an old man about fifty years old, thin and small, and he works very carefully.Then Luo Youli took Luo Ran to the grocery store.There are two or three grocery stores in the town, of different sizes, this time Luo Youli took them to the one that is not big or small, I heard that the price is still relatively middle.The grocery store is actually not very big, a bit like the convenience store that is common nowadays, just slightly larger.The big door in the middle, and a thick wooden window next to it, although it was open, the light was not very good, and it was a little dim.When I went in, the grocery store was really a grocery store, and there were a lot of things in it, and it was more messy.Some are piled up directly on the floor, some are placed on the table, and some are hung on the wall.There are all kinds of messy things.At this time, there was a guy in the shop who was napping, and when he saw a few people coming, he immediately smiled and said, "This big brother, what do you want to order?"
Seeing Luo Youli and an adult leading three children over, he first asked Luo Youli."
Little brother, there is a hornet's nest in this store, I don't want to ask how much it is, and what price," Luo Wenxuan asked the guy first."
Hornet's nest, I just got one a few days ago."
When the guy heard Luo Wenxuan ask, he thought that the hornet's nest is generally used in medicine, but I don't know why the hornet's nest is used, and it doesn't look like a doctor.Although I thought about it this way, I still honestly took out the few I collected a few days ago.And separately introduce how much this says."
This one is the largest, and the most complete, very well preserved, twenty yuan, the other two are eighteen yuan and sixteen yuan."
The young man was not very old, thirteen or fourteen years old, but he was a man of good speech, and told them one by one.The price that the young man said was very affordable, and after understanding, Luo Ran took out their hornet's nest from the basket and said, "Little brother, look at this, the store can't accept it, how much does it cost" The young man saw the hornet's nest that Luo Ran took out and knew that this was a few children who came to sell the hornet's nest.The hornet's nest in Luo Ran's hand is also very large, similar to the one introduced by the guy just now.Looking at a few children, there was a silent dealer next to him, the young man did not lower the price, and said directly and pertinently: "If this is collected in the store, it will cost fourteen yuan." ”After Luo Wenxuan and Luo Ran heard this, they nodded to each other, "Okay." ”"The store accepts duck eggs," Luo Ran said, lifting the cover in the basket, revealing more than a dozen wild duck eggs."
Eggs cost a penny, duck eggs cost three, and the price is clearly marked."
The young man said.There are a total of 17 duck eggs, which is 25 yuan, plus 14 yuan from the hornet's nest, a total of 39 yuan, which is now on Luo Ran's body.Luo Youli watched a few children exchange duck eggs and hornet's nests for silver money, and he was very happy, a few children are really smart and sensible.Luo Ran looked at the other things in the store, and asked the price again, the young man didn't have any other customers now, but answered patiently one by one.With the dozens of dollars in his arms, although Luo Ran was very happy, it was too little, and it was not enough to buy things.sighed in my heart, when will I really be able to spend money lavishly."
Ran'er, what do you want to buy now my father has no money in his hand, so when I go back and wait for my father to make money, I will buy it."
Luo Youli saw his daughter asking this and that, thinking that Luo Ran thought of buying it, but thinking of the dozens of dollars on his body, it was estimated that there would be no left when he repaired farm tools and bought sickles, so he comforted his little daughter."
Daddy, I'm just asking, let's go."
Luo Youli just now, Luo Ran's expression of pity could be seen clearly, and his daughter's sensibility made him really pity in his heart."
Dad will take you to the rice grain store in a while and ask for the price."
Out of the grocery store, Luo Youli said to a few children."
Daddy, do we want to sell grain or buy grain" Luo Wensheng looked at Luo Youli."
Dad doesn't know, your grandfather asked me to ask."
Luo Youli is also confused now, if he says to buy grain, he shouldn't be, and the new grain will almost come down in more than a month, so there shouldn't be any need to buy grain.If we talk about selling grain, most of last year's grain was sold after it was harvested, except for enough to eat.There is definitely not much surplus food at home now, and if you want to sell new grain, it is too early to inquire about the price of grain, and the price of grain will change at that time.After a while, a few people arrived at the grain store, which was almost the same as the grocery store just now, except that all kinds of things were replaced with grain.There is also a large scale and a few small scales next to it, which should be used to weigh grain.There are a wide range of grains in the store, including wheat, rice, millet, sorghum rice, soybeans, red beans, mung beans, and so on."
White rice, 10 yuan a catty; sorghum rice, 4 yuan a catty; wheat, 10 yuan a catty; Soybeans, 12 wen a catty" Luo Ran listened to the guy's talk about the prices of various grains, and also felt why the Luo family ate multigrain rice and multigrain rice every day.Most of the multigrain rice eaten by the Luo family is sorghum rice, which is only 4 yuan, and buying one pound of white rice can buy almost two and a half pounds of sorghum rice.The climate here is suitable for upland rice and wheat, and the price of wheat is not cheap, it is estimated that the planting rate of wheat in ancient times is not high, and the yield is relatively low, so the price is still very high compared to modern times.Moreover, the imperial court still collects grain and rice, so ordinary people still grow rice, and some families will set aside a part of the land to grow wheat.Like the Luo family, more than half of the upland rice and a few acres of wheat can be exchanged for silver or other miscellaneous grains.4209051:
