After lunch, Duan Changsheng got into the carriage, Duan Wuji asked his father for a hundred taels of silver, and then followed the carriage straight to Duanjiaji, came to the street of Duanjiaji to have a look .
Ho! The whole street is very lively, there are vendors selling vegetables, meat, chickens, ducks and geese, New Year pictures and so on. That's a lot! The whole street presents a festive atmosphere.
Duan Wuji looked at Duan Changsheng and said, "Brother, do you lack paper, pens and inkstones?"
Duan Changsheng laughed and said, "Brother, thank you for thinking of me. I don't lack these things for the time being."
"Since there is no shortage, let's not buy it today, let's buy five pieces of red paper, and let's write pairs when we go home."
Duan Wuji went into the paper shop, bought five pieces of red paper and came out, then put the red paper on the carriage.
Duan Changsheng looked at Duan Wuji and asked, "Brother, what else do you think we should buy?"
Duan Wuji thought for a while and said, "What do you buy? Firecrackers. It's Chinese New Year. How can we not set off some firecrackers?"
Duan Changsheng laughed when he heard this.
"Okay, let's drive the carriage to the firecracker market."
Arriving at the firecracker market, Duan Wuji squeezed in front of Duizhu and shouted loudly: "Tanzhu, bring me some firecrackers."
The beach owner who sold firecrackers looked at the young man standing in front of him, and he knew that he was not an ordinary farmer when he saw the clothes.
"Oh, boy, are you buying firecrackers!?"
"That's right, what are you doing so hard to come here if you don't want to buy firecrackers?"
"Then how much did you pay for it? I have a full range of varieties here!"
Duan Wuji thought for a while and said, "Give me firecrackers of three taels of silver."
"Huh? You bought it for so much money? What a big customer!"
Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Boss, load the firecrackers to the car for me."
"Hi!"
The boss who sold the firecrackers was very happy, and immediately moved the firecrackers and put them on the car. Duan Wuji took out a piece of five taels of silver and handed it over.
The beach owner who sold firecrackers was dumbfounded at first sight.
"My little brother, I don't have any silver on me, only copper coins."
"Copper coins? Copper coins are also fine! As long as I find enough, I don't care if he has copper coins or silver coins! Isn't everything the same?"
The owner of the beach found enough copper coins, Duan Wuji threw the copper coins on the car, and Duan Changsheng said happily when he saw it: "Damn, don't leave the silver, why do you want such a pile of copper coins? This thing is heavy and heavy." It¡¯s not easy to carry, what a hassle to carry! If I had known this, I might as well sell it myself.¡±
After hearing this, Duan Wuji said with a smile: "You go? Can you exchange so many copper coins? Where can you find such a good thing!"
Duan Changsheng rolled his eyes angrily.
"Dumb, you, are you taking it for a reason and saying that there is someone like you?"
Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.
"Brother, you are really the young master of my family. Do we have copper coins in addition to silver? You know, this copper coin is the currency of our common people. You really can't do many things without these things. If you don't believe me, just try it." .
Going to the market today, I only accept copper coins, not a tael of silver. "
Duan Changsheng was so angry that he opened his mouth and was speechless.
"You, you, you are really good. Brother, I have convinced you today. How much copper do you like? When I get back, I will learn from my father and see how he treats you."
Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.
"Brother, don't talk about it when you go back. If you talk about Daddy, you might scold you for not being smart. If you don't believe me, just give it a try."
Duan Changsheng was taken aback when he heard this.
"Really? Brother, what's going on here? Tell me, let me hear?"
Duan Wuji smiled.
"Brother, if you can figure out what I can use for this copper coin, I'll tell you. If you can't figure it out, I'll tell you after you get home and unload the car."
Duan Wuji smiled and said to Duan Changsheng: "Brother, drive the carriage to the meat market, we will go back after buying a pig."
"Ah! Is it that simple? There are too few things to buy here."
Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Yes, I only bought such a few things. It's useless to buy too much. Go back to our village and ask the farmers in our village what they bought for the New Year., Our family definitely buys the most. If you don't believe me, go back and ask. "
Duan Changsheng was amused when he heard this.
"Brother, I don't need to ask. Compared with them, our family definitely buys the most."
Duan Wuji walked up to a candied melon seller and said, "Boss, here are fifty old candied melons."
"Okay, young master, this is your Tangguaer, you can take it."
Duan Wuji paid the bill by counting fifty copper coins from the car, and then said with a smile: "Brother, let's go, you see how convenient it is to pay the bill with copper coins, if you take out a piece of ten taels of silver, the peddler I don't know how I will scold you behind my back."
Duan Changsheng couldn't say anything when he saw it.
When the two came to the meat market, Duan Wuji picked a live pig weighing more than 300 jin. Duan Wuji shouted loudly: "Who owns this pig? How much do you sell it for?"
An old man in dirt clothes came from the side. The old man looked at Duan Wuji and said with a smile: "Little brother, look how fat this pig is. This pig has been raised for two years! How about we count three, two or seven dollars?"
Duan Wuji smiled.
"Boss, three, two, five silver, if you sell it, you can help us load the carriage, if you don't sell it, then let's look at other people's."
The old man thought for a while and said: "Okay, okay, let's make a deal. I will sell it to you today. I am still waiting to sell it and go to the market to buy New Year's goods."
Duan Wuji took out three taels of scattered silver, and counted half a tael of copper coins from the cart to get together the money to buy the pig.
The boss who bought the pig looked at Duan Wuji and said, "Young master, how do we get this pig into the car?"
After hearing this, Duan Wuji smiled and said: "You two lift the pig's legs one by one, and the other pulls the pig's tail. I'll lift the pig's head. Isn't it easy to get in the car?"
The three of them carried the pig onto the cart at once according to Duan Wuji's method.
Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Brother, let's drive back. It's not too late to go back now."
Duan Changsheng shook his whip, and the carriage drove straight to the house.
When they got home, the two brought firecrackers, candied melons and red paper into the house. Duan Wuji pulled the pig's ears and pulled the pig out of the car.
The two men carried the copper coins on the cart into the house again.
Just as Duan Changsheng was about to drive the carriage out, Duan Wuji hurriedly said: "Brother, call all four long-term workers over when we go."
"Okay, hey, brother, what are you asking them to do?"
"What are you doing? Let's kill pigs and sheep! If we don't kill them now, why don't we raise them for another two days?"
After hearing this, Duan Changsheng laughed and said, "Damn, I didn't expect you to say hurry up, so that's fine."
In a short time, four long-term workers ran over.
Duan Wuji looked at the four people and said with a smile: "Now let's kill pigs and sheep, you four hurry up and bring some pots from home, remember to put a handful of salt in each pot, do you hear me clearly, go quickly."
The four of them ran out after hearing a promise.
When Duan Changsheng saw it, he asked, "Damn, what are you telling them to do with the basin?"
"What are you doing, take pig's blood and sheep's blood for a while, the long-term workers with our family are all poor people, and the people in the family usually can't eat anything, so they get some of this thing to go back to celebrate the New Year. Throw this thing away, right?" Is it such a pity?"
Duan Changsheng nodded after listening.
"Damn, you are really thoughtful! I can't blame you for getting rich."
In a short time, the four long-term workers all ran back with big pots.
Duan Wuji looked at the four people and said with a smile: "Which of you four has killed a pig or a sheep?"
The four long-term workers laughed and said, "Back to the second young master, all four of us have done this job before."
Duan Wuji looked at the four people and said: "Okay, when you slaughter pigs and sheep, use your pot to catch all the blood of pigs and sheep and go home to cook blood tofu. We don't want these things at home."
The four of them were overjoyed when they heard that.
Duan Wuji said: "You kill four sheep and this pig, go and prepare it quickly, pay attention, don't throw away everything, I will give you a point when the time comes."
The four long-term workers laughed and said, "Don't bother with the second young master, we will definitely do this well, and you will be satisfied when the time comes."
Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Okay, then I don't care about it, you can figure it out."
After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji stepped into the room. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
