C48

Peace Town was divided into four directions, to the east was the market, and the busiest area was the market. To the north were mostly cloth houses, grain stores, and grocery stores that sold silk and clothing, to the west were restaurants, restaurants, and inns, and to the south were the residences of the rich and the yamen of the officials.

Red dates were among the various items sold in the market. However, there were only two or three of them. The most important thing was that the size and color of the red dates were not as good as hers.

In Wenxiu's previous life, she had been engaged in an unshakeable business transaction, but bargaining and communicating with others were not a problem at all. After cheering herself on, she pretended to be a customer who bought red dates and walked in front of one of the red dates stalls. She randomly picked two large red dates and asked, "How much are you selling these dates?"

It was an aunt who sold red dates. She seemed to be in her forties. She was selling red dates on the red dates beach, but her hands were not idle at all. She was sitting on a small stool and taking in the soles of her shoes. When she heard Wenxiu's question, she raised her head and glanced at her. Afterwards, she wiped the needle on her head and stuck it into the sole of her shoe. Then, she said, "Fifteen taels of gold a catty."

Fifteen gold taels a catty, how much was that?

Wenxiu had been in this world for more than half a month, but apart from the things that had happened in the village, she did not know much about Zhen'er. She wandered around the bazaar, completely unaware of what both buyers and sellers called copper coins, and of what economic prices might be.

What was the other party thinking by calling out a price of fifteen coins? It couldn't be like what happened on TV, a coin and two meat buns, could it?

Wenxiu had no concept of "fifteen pieces". She smiled at the aunt, put down the red dates and quickly left. The woman on the bottom of her shoes acted as if she didn't expect Ye Ci to buy her shoes. She lowered her head expressionlessly and busied herself with the bottom of her shoes.

In order to ascertain the purchasing ability of a copper coin, Wenxiu asked about the price of all the items sold in the market. He then walked into an alley and analyzed the concept of a single coin with rapt attention.

Her hard work had paid off. After analyzing for a quarter of an hour, she had a rough understanding of the situation.

In the bazaar, the price of one catty of fat was twenty-two taels of gold, one catty of lean meat was eighteen catties, and the price of one catty of fish was eight catties. The price of pork was almost three times that of fish, which was about the same price as the place where Wenxiu had lived in her previous life. Only, the difference was that chickens and ducks were worth about fifteen coins, which was a bit more expensive than what he had received in his previous life.

Fifteen catties of chicken and duck meat, fifteen catties of red dates. In other words, one catty of red dates was enough to eat a catty of chicken and duck meat. The red dates were quite expensive.

This time, Xiu finally understood. No wonder the lady with the red dates was so idle!

Now, as long as I go to the bakery along the street and ask for the price, I can basically be sure that I can buy a big meat bun with a single copper coin.

Wenxiu felt that the red dates at the stall were not very good. They were not big and were not very red. If he brought his family's red dates to set up a stall, or sold them for 15 copper coins per catty, wouldn't he suffer a loss? After looking at the stall, he saw that no one was interested in selling red dates. Thus, the mood for selling red dates became less and less.

Lady Fang was right, red dates were considered a tonic in the medicine store. A good thing like nourishing one's complexion and nourishing one's vital energy and blood was not something that an ordinary family could eat. Every year, the farmers of Xitang Village were fortunate enough to pluck some and go back to have a taste. It was truly a gift from the heavens.

Forget it, it seems I won't be able to sell it in the market. I'll think of another way.

Today, other than these gains, Wenxiu also discovered that there was no potato powder for sale in the market. Not only was the potato powder not for sale, but even the most ordinary dried noodles were not for sale. Powder strips are generally divided into red pasta and banana taro powder, although the taste is different, but the process of powder extraction is the same. There were no such things in the market, so it was obvious that the refining technique had yet to be discovered or extended.

If he wanted to use a lot of powder to spread the powder, then he would need to make a workshop. Most importantly, these two items required a lot of manpower, but the actual harvest was not good. This kind of production could at most be used to make a living, but it was absolutely impossible to get rich. The only way to make a fortune was to find other ways.

Wenxiu strolled around the market again. There were many things she wanted to buy, but unfortunately, she did not have a single cent on her. In the end, she could only sigh and give up. He walked back to the rendezvous point with Song Xiaoyue in high spirits and saw that she was already waiting for him.

Right now, it was still far from the appointed time!

Seeing that Song Xiaoyue was empty-handed, Wen Xiu asked doubtfully, "Mistress Yue, where did you buy the cloth?"

Song Xiaoyue shook her head and then quickly explained, "I know the manager's sister-in-law. After paying the money, I will leave the house and go get it when Yan Qing returns. This is what we agreed on last night. Grandma told me to buy some sugar for the kids, but I was afraid to go to the candy store and miss the time I had with you, so I made you wait here foolishly. "

Xiu raised her eyebrows. Was he going to go to the candy store with her?

"Come, come. Let's go to the candy store together. It won't take too long." "Wait a moment, I'll buy more. Bring some to the two kids and let them have a taste …"

Song Xiaoyue was obviously happy about buying the candy. Even if he didn't have any children now, he was willing to serve them. No matter what, the little friction and conflict between the adults did not involve the children.

On this point, all the members of the Wang family did quite well.

Because of the expensive candy, ordinary families would not be able to eat two bites of it throughout the year, so in this small Peace Town, the candy store was only sold at one of the shops on the southern side of the street. It was understandable for the shop to be opened here. There were many rich and powerful people living here, while the poor and poor families couldn't afford it. However, the people living here could only eat.

To go to the candy store in the south, one had to walk through two alleys. These alleys were made of green brick and were two to three meters tall. Entering through the alleyway gave one the feeling that the alleyway was very deep. After walking into the alleyway, he couldn't tell the direction at all. If it wasn't for Song Xiaoyue, Wen Xiu might really have gotten lost in this maze of alleys.

"Save …" Life … "Woo woo …"

"Save …" Save... "Life …"

"Shut up, you bitch! Hurry up and hand over the money! "

"Mmm mmm …"

"Hey, bitch! You still dare to bite me? Fine, I'll fuck you!"

"Pa ~ ~"

"Save …" "Save me …"

Suddenly, a faint sound could be heard. The elegant and graceful lady listened attentively, and her footsteps could not help but slow down a bit. The more he listened, the more his eyebrows knitted together, as if he could pinch a mosquito to death at any moment.

Song Xiaoyue chattered excitedly along the way, talking about interesting things about the children at home. As she talked, she realized that Wenxiu was no longer by her side. She stopped and turned around in a hurry. Just as she was about to call out to Wenxiu, she saw that she had run off in another direction.
