The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 64: Made a lot of money

The sun has just risen. On the vegetable market street of Dongshi, there are gradually more and more people buying vegetables. The vegetable vendors are also shouting loudly and soliciting business with smiles on their faces.

In the middle of winter, there are not many varieties available for sale. In addition to radish, cabbage, and tofu pickled vegetables, there are quite a few selling chicken, duck, and pork, and some people sell dried mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and other fungi.

Most of the people who live in Dongshi are in good condition. Fresh vegetables are not available on weekdays, and many people are not in the mood, but they have to come to buy them.

But it was different today. Many people who came to buy food rushed towards the end of the street. Some people rushed over in a hurry, but they were still a step too late. The stall was already covered with three floors inside and three floors outside. Surrounded by people, it was impossible to see what was going on inside.

Girl, give me 30 pounds of spinach and 30 pounds of green vegetables. I need to use more for weddings at home!

Boss, Im here first, weigh me first!

Hey, dont squeeze in the back, the vegetable basket is even squeezed!

Everyone come one by one, dont crowd around, there are still a lot of vegetables, all available, all available!

Mo Yan was sweating profusely while serving cabbages to the guests. Seeing that the vegetable stall was almost overturned, she quickly shouted to them to step back.

Beside her, Mo Qingze was also busy weighing the guests. He had never done this before, and now that there were so many people, it was inevitable that he would be in a hurry.

Oh, you guys are too slow. Business is so good, why dont you call a few more people to help? With so many people, I still have to wait for a long time!

"That's right, I've been waiting for a while, and before it's my turn, the people behind me are all crowded."

Hearing the complaints from the guests, Mo Yan and his daughter could only apologize with a smile.

I thought that the price of these vegetables would soon catch up with pork, and there wouldnt be many people selling them on the first day. Who would have thought that as soon as these vegetables and spinach were put on display, people on the street would flock over in droves. If they had known that business was so good, they would definitely have hired a few more people to help.

Its not the fault of the father and daughters miscalculation. After all, ordinary vegetables cost fifteen cents per pound. Spinach and celery are even more expensive, costing eighteen cents per pound. Ordinary people are really reluctant to buy them.

Little do they know that since winter, these people living in the city have hardly had access to fresh vegetables. Every day they have either radish or cabbage, or meat and pickles, which would be boring to anyone!

No, after holding it back for a month or two, when I first saw these green, tender leafy vegetables, I couldnt bear it. No matter how expensive they were, I had to buy a few kilograms to take home and try them out!

He kept collecting money and changing money. The money bag hanging on his waist became heavier and heavier. If he moved, he could hear the clattering sound inside. Mo Yan didn't know how much money he had collected this morning. He just looked at the three people on the stall. There was only a little bit of vegetables left in the cart, so I thought it must be a lot.

Within an hour, all the vegetables were sold out. After hearing the news, several women rushed over and saw only a few scattered green vegetable leaves left on the vegetable stall.

Ah, the leaves of these vegetables are also very green and tender!

So at the end, there were not even any vegetable leaves on the stall. Those who didn't buy anything could only blame the woman for her quick hands and feet, but they didn't even catch the vegetable leaves!

Facing several resentful looks, the father and daughter had no choice but to promise to come back tomorrow and set up a stall here to ask them to come early.

The faces of the women looked better now. They were worried that they would be delayed tomorrow, so they repeatedly asked the father and daughter to reserve some vegetables for them tomorrow. They came to get them directly. After the father and daughter agreed, they were satisfied. He left with the empty basket.

By the time the vegetable stall was cleared and they got on the oxcart called, the father and daughter were too tired to move.

After the oxcart left the East Market, Mo Yan calmed down a little. She specially asked the driver to go around to the vegetable market in the West Market. She saw a lot of people coming and going, and the items sold were similar to those in the East Market. She couldn't help but think about what to do tomorrow. Set up a stall in the West Market. The South Market is full of wealthy businessmen and there are many wealthy people, so you can also set up one.

After paying the fare and returning home, Mo Yan couldn't wait to dump the two money bags on the table. There was a crash, and the copper coins and silver coins instantly covered the entire table, and many of them rolled to the floor.

Xin'er and three others rushed to the table all of a sudden, their eyes widened and their mouths open enough to fit an egg in. This was the first time they had seen such a huge pile of money!

Mo Qingze was also surprised. He knew that the three carts of vegetables sold for a lot of money today, but now when they were piled up, he realized that it was really a lot!

Dont just stand there stupidly, count the money quickly, and hit the palms of your hands if you make a mistake.

Mo Yan happily took out the cotton thread and scissors, and couldn't help but laugh when he saw the four people's appearance.

Counting money? That is really a happy thing!

Five people sat down around the table, each with a cotton thread and began to count the money and string it together. After half an hour, all the copper coins were counted and strung together. At the last count, there were eighty strings and seventy copper coins, plus more than 20 pieces of silver coins.

"One string has one hundred copper coins, ten strings is one tael of silver, eighty strings is eight taels of silver, these silver dimes are twenty taels and nine cents, and the total is..." Xin'er counted carefully with her fingers. , and finally his eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Mo Yan: "Sister, please give me a squeeze and see if this is a dream!"

"Pfft! Haha..." Zhen'er was the first to laugh without shame, pointing at the second sister and teasing: "The second sister is really worthless, and she was frightened by more than ten taels of silver. Haha, it's so funny!"

Everyone also started laughing, not because they were laughing at Xiner, but because they were happy from the bottom of their hearts. No one expected that in just one hour, they would earn nearly eleven taels of silver.

Seeing Xin'er come to her senses, glaring at Zhen'er fiercely and about to rush over to hit her, Mo Yan gently slapped Zhen'er on the back of the head: "Why are you talking to the second sister? Apologize!"

Zhen'er saw her second sister's fierce face and was worried about being beaten, so she walked over slowly, hugged Xiner's neck and begged for forgiveness.

Xin'er pinched his ears rudely before giving up in anger.

After laughing, Mo Yan solemnly put all the coins into a wooden box. Although this amount of money was not much, it gave the family confidence. She believed that sooner or later, this box of copper coins would turn into a box of real gold and silver!

As it was approaching noon, Mo Yan originally wanted to prepare a table of delicious dishes to celebrate, but Li Zhong was busy looking for his daughter and had not been back for lunch recently, so he decided to do it in the evening. In addition, he was very busy in the morning and had to go to Liuyang Village in the afternoon. , I simply made three dishes and one soup.

The family is in a good mood, and the simple home-cooked meals are delicious.

Putting down the dishes, Mo Yan and Mo Qingze hired a car to go to Liuyang Village without stopping. This time they not only asked the villagers to prepare more vegetables, but also found someone to help sell the vegetables!
