Chapter 46: Valuable Dried Shrimp

Chapter 46 Valuable Dried Shrimp

After dinner, Joey broke the somewhat weird atmosphere.

"I want to go to the county seat tomorrow."

"Does the wife-wife want to buy something?"

Mu Yun asked softly.

"Well, buy two bolts of cloth, buy some cotton, and make a few pairs of thicker shoes first. By the way, I want to sell some dried shrimps first, and then buy more cloth. When I have nothing to do now, I will make all the bedding and so on."

This winter is coming soon, maybe one day the temperature will drop suddenly.

They don't even have a thicker dress or a quilt. If they get sick from the cold, the loss outweighs the gain.

Don't say anything else, just say that a few days ago, she saw Mu Qing and the others shivering from the cold in the morning.

"Shall we follow?"

Hearing what Qiao Yi said, Mu Yun felt somewhat guilty.

These trivial things should be what they should do, but their wives actually thought of them for them.

"No, you guys stay at home, I will try to come back as soon as possible."

Qiao Yi didn't want them to go, and Mu Yun didn't say anything, but turned around and went out.

Soon Mu Yun entered the room with a tael of silver in his hand.

"This copper coin is required to be paid when entering the city. Is it enough for you to bring one tael of silver? If it is not enough, I will go get another tael."

Joy only took two copper coins, but not Broken Silver.

"Two coppers are enough."

No matter what, the shrimp she brought tomorrow has to be sold.

It doesn't matter if it's a little cheaper.

After all, they now need too much money to build a house.

After building a house, there are more places that need money.

Now they can't make ends meet, and if they don't make some money, they will really be sitting on nothing.

The next day, Mu Yun still woke up early, pasted pancakes for Qiao Yi, and saved them to eat on the way when she was hungry.

When Qiao Yi got up, Mu Yun had already prepared everything.

"Go indoors and sleep again, it's really cold outside."

Joy left these words, and soon disappeared into the night.

This time, Qiao Yi was not as stupid as last time. Out of Mu Yun's sight, she put the jar into the space.

The jar containing twenty catties, plus the jar itself, is more than twenty catties.

Although it is not too heavy to hold, this kind of jar with a wide mouth is not easy to hold.

There is space, a weapon of cheating, so she doesn't want to suffer herself.

Even the pancakes, Joey put them into the space.

Because she also discovered a function of space, that is, no matter what things are put in, they will remain the same when they are taken out.

Put the hot pancakes in, and they are still hot when you take them out.

Seeing that the county seat was approaching, Qiao Yi took the jar out of the space and hugged it to her chest.

After paying two cents, Qiao Yi didn't go straight to the market.

Instead, wander around in front of major restaurants.

Shrimp is such a good thing, she doesn't want to sell it cheap.

You must know that this is the essence.

Such 20 catties of dried shrimps used a full 100 catties of crayfish.

Finally, Joey stopped in front of a restaurant that was buying vegetables.

Wait until the woman in office clothes finished receiving the goods, Joey stepped forward.

"The steward, please wait."

Zhou Hong heard someone calling herself, so she couldn't help but stop and look at the person coming.

"Hello, I'm from Mu's Village. My name is Qiao Yi. I saw you harvesting vegetables today. I dared to come here and let you see if my shrimps are harvested."

"Shrimp?"

Zhou Hong raised her eyebrows. There is only one river near them, and there are not many tributary lakes, so there are very few things like river fish.

The person in front of her actually said that she had shrimps, and she came here with such a big jar. Could it be that the jar is full of shrimps?

"That's right, I dried the dried shrimps myself, how about you take a look?"

"Bring it in, let me see."

Seeing Qiao Yi's soft face and clear eyes, Zhou Hong knew that Qiao Yi was not making fun of her, and she was fine now, so she directly invited Qiao Yi into the restaurant.

After entering the restaurant, Zhou Hong took Qiao Yi into a room.

"sit."

Zhou Hong pointed to the chair opposite her and said.

"Thank you."

Joy put the jar by his feet and sat down.

At this time, a male waiter came over to serve tea.

Zhou Hong signaled Qiao Yi to drink tea.

Zhou Hong didn't speak, didn't mention the shrimp, and Qiao Yi didn't speak, just drinking tea in silence.

Although she was not a boss in her previous life, she had a lot of business talks.

She knows that this is the most urgent time.

Since they have invited her in, it means that they are interested in this.

And what she has to do is to wait for the opportunity.

Zhou Hong was satisfied when she saw that Qiao Yi was not in a hurry.

No matter what kind of shrimps Qiaoyi brought, she can buy the shrimps just because of Qiaoyi herself.

Zhou Hong took a sip of tea, and then said: "Bring me the shrimp."

"Please wait."

Joy was a little excited, put down the teacup, bent down to pick up the jar from the ground, and put it on the table.

Then carefully open the top seal.

"Let's see if you are satisfied."

That's what he said, but Joey spoke with strong confidence.

Zhou Hong smiled and said nothing, self-confidence is a good thing, but it also depends on the quality of things.

Zhou Hong got up and came to the jar.

When Zhou Hong saw the dried shrimps in the jar, Zhou Hong's face changed slightly.

"You made this yourself?"

The tone improved slightly.

"My husband and I made it together."

Joy was puzzled, why did she feel that the manager's tone was a little pleasantly surprised! ?

Zhou Hong picked up a few dried shrimps, rummaged through them in her hands, and then took one and put it in her mouth.

"How many more do you have at home? I want them all."

She has traveled all over the world, and she has seen all kinds of seafood, so she can see it at a glance.

The dried shrimp brought by Joey in front of me is pure in color, and the most important thing is that it is not small.

The freshness of the shrimp has not been lost at all, and it is still chewy in the mouth.

It seems that Qiao Yi put his heart into it when making it.

"I still have about twenty catties at home."

"Twenty catties is a bit small."

Zhou Hong heard that Qiao Yi's family only weighed 20 catties. In addition, what I brought today was only forty catties, so I couldn't help saying something softly.

The dried shrimps are so good, she thought about sending some to the young master, some to the eldest lady, and keeping some for herself, but these were obviously not enough.

"How much do you want?"

Joy asked tentatively.

There are a lot of crayfish in front of their house. If the manager wants more and the price is right, she doesn't mind working overtime to get a batch.

"At least one hundred catties of dried shrimp, can you make it?"

Zhou Hong had doubts in her eyes.

These are dried shrimps, even a catty of fresh ones can’t yield half a catty of dried shrimp.

And she still wants so much, where can Joey get so many shrimps in such a short time?

"I am dissatisfied with you, there is a river in front of my house, the river is full of shrimp, if you want, I will dry it out for you as soon as possible."

Zhou Hong heard what Qiao Yi said.

As long as the money is in place, she can get a hundred catties as soon as possible.

"I want the 20 catties of dried shrimp you brought today, five cents a catty, and in a short period of time, you let me dry a hundred catties, how about I also pay five hundred cash a catty? "

"Steward, this is not the shell of an ordinary shrimp."
