Chapter 81 Su Family Father and Son 3 Selling Goods
"Catch the morning market and let them buy some things. It's the same as usual. Don't worry, they will be back after a while." Mrs. Su explained to the two children.
We have a bullock cart at home, so we can haul things to the town in one go. Otherwise, we would have to make two trips to get it done by ourselves.
"I see our family has bought a motorcycle?"
"Well, your elder brother said that the mountain road is not convenient to go back and forth, and the only ox cart at home is not enough, so he simply bought a motorcycle."
"Motorcycles are quite expensive now, aren't they?" Su Anxin glanced at the motorcycles placed in the courtyard, which were similar to bicycles.
"It's quite expensive, costing one to two thousand yuan, but it saves a lot of work for the family.
The car is also powerful to ride, and you can turn a cart behind it.
Your eldest and second brothers usually use it to carry things when they go to town to sell things. "
"You two haven't been back for a long time. You must not have visited the town yet. How many days will it take for your father to drive the bullock cart to take you to the town?"
"Okay, I haven't gone to the market for a long time.
It must be very lively. It has been seven or eight years since I last went to the market. "
……
Su Lao Da and Su Lao Er first went to the hospital and sold turtles at the entrance of the hospital. They didn't have much on hand, so they only picked up three or four turtles.
Before I had even stood in the hospital for a while, someone came to my door.
"Hey, how are you selling this soft-shelled turtle? It looks very fresh. Was it just caught from the ground?"
“Of course it’s alive, it was caught from the ground before dawn, how about that?
The soft-shelled turtles on the market now are not easy to get. If you have a patient at home, this soft-shelled turtle is nutritious. Stewing it into a soup will help the recovery of the wound. "Su Erzhu specializes in proactive sales.
After doing business for such a long time, the boss's talk will still be dumber than that of the second child.
Every time the second brother meets a customer, he will try his best to sell the product, talk eloquently and make them smile, and they will pay for whatever they don't want to buy.
These days, it's really hard to find wild turtles, especially if there are elderly people in the hospital like theirs. I want to buy some turtles, but there is no way.
Nowadays, there is free trade. Although there are many meat sellers on the market, it is still difficult to buy wild giant turtles.
Not to mention, the two brothers were carrying a soft-shelled turtle, which weighed about three or four kilograms. It was extremely big, and they even managed to handle it cleanly.
Even if they go to the supply and marketing cooperative, they may not be able to buy such fresh turtles.
"The big turtles are all hiding in that cave. We brothers also caught them just to motivate the boss.
Sister, here’s a soft-shelled turtle. Let’s buy it and make soup to replenish our health. "
"If you have a daughter-in-law at home, this turtle is a special supplement for pregnant women. After eating it, the child will be smart and walk smoothly."
"Don't talk about my wife. She just gave birth the day before yesterday. I have been busy getting some supplements for her these past few days. I confirmed that the supply and marketing cooperative did not buy a good chicken. I am worried to death.
How do you sell your turtle? It's too expensive and I can't afford it. "
"Sister, don't think it's expensive. Who doesn't want this nutritious thing? Otherwise, it wouldn't be so expensive, right?
This turtle costs 50 yuan, which is pretty cheap. "
"It doesn't matter if it's expensive. We brothers also brought some of our own eggs and pullets."
"And selling eggs and chickens? This can solve my troubles.
Where are your eggs and chickens? "The aunt looked around and saw nothing.
"It's not convenient to park an oxcart in front of the hospital. Our father is under the big tree opposite, and there are eggs and chickens on the oxcart.
Would you like to come over and take a look? "
The woman saw eggs with oval white shells and asked, "Are these eggs? I thought they were goose eggs at first sight."
"It's just eggs, but our chickens eat a lot, so the eggs they lay are relatively big.
They cost only 12 cents each, and all of them were double yolk eggs. "
"If you buy twenty or thirty at a time, I'll sell them to you for a dime, and we'll just become friends."
After hearing this, the aunt was very happy and said, "Wait for me here for a while, I don't have so much money with me."
"Hey, okay, aunt, if you can, help us introduce an introducer."
There were so many people coming and going in the hospital, and they all saw the turtles they were carrying.
Many people came up to ask about the price. After hearing the price, they all shook their heads.
"It's too expensive. If you make it cheaper, I'll buy one."
"This price is already the cheapest. We are also injured." Don't try to take advantage if you don't buy it. Even if they can't sell it, they can keep it for Lao Wu to eat.
The old man bit his lip and said, "Okay, then you can get me one, a smaller one. It can be cheaper."
"The small one weighs more than three kilograms, so it costs you thirty-two yuan."
"Can you please give me the change? It's only thirty yuan, okay?"
This old man is really messy. He not only picks snacks, but also gives him the change. This deal is not cost-effective no matter what, but it costs so much money.
"Okay, okay, it's only thirty yuan, old man, you are really good at bargaining."
"There is nothing we can do about it. My wife is in hospital and my pension is limited, so I just want to get him something nutritious."
"Would you like to buy some more eggs? We have all eggs, goose eggs and duck eggs."
"No, just this turtle."
I wandered around the hospital and bought seven or eight turtles. The money I got was almost two to three hundred yuan.
Old Man Su also sells a lot of eggs and meat. Although the market is open and everyone has money in their pockets, this meat is still difficult to buy and the supply exceeds demand.
So when rabbit, chicken, and duck meat appeared in front of everyone, they simply flocked to it and formed cliques.
"When will we come to sell meat next time? Is it still in this place?"
"We can't guarantee this. We caught some soft-shell turtles today, so we came to sell them near the hospital.
I don’t know next time, usually we have fixed supply points. "
"Let's make an appointment. Your stuff is good. We'll buy it next time."
"Why don't you rent a stall."
"Well, my eldest and second eldest children usually sell roasted seeds and salt-baked eggs in the town. You know about salt-baked eggs.
If you want to buy in the future, just go there and tell them, make an appointment, and we will deliver the items. "
"Salt-baked eggs are sold by your family. My children always like to eat them. They are delicious, not irritating and have a strong flavor.
Your family is really capable! "
After making an appointment, the Su family and his son had to go to a state-owned hotel.
The manager of a state-owned hotel eagerly looks forward to the old Su family coming to deliver things every day.
It's just that people from the old Su family don't come often enough, they only come every now and then, maybe two or three times a month at most.
He was looking forward to the stars and the moon. Every time the old Su family sent something and cooked the food that day, it was the most attractive.
The threshold was almost crossed.
