80s: The Farmer’s Wife Is The Boss

Chapter 69, Aquatic Products Market

The next day, the four of them gathered at Mei Xue's home. An Liang and An Cheng booked a carriage early. It was getting late, so they had to go to town quickly, otherwise the loach might not survive until noon.

"Slow down, sister-in-law, give it to me and I'll carry it." Anwen stepped onto the carriage first and picked up the bucket.

An Cheng was surprised when he saw them carrying so many loaches and eels, "Oh my god, Brother An Wen, why did you catch so many?"

Recently, he also went to his own land to catch them, but there were so many. It would be good to have enough for his own consumption.

An Wen giggled and said, "Haha, good luck, good luck." The third grandma had already said when she first caught a hare and came back that she was not allowed to tell anyone about her sister-in-law.

An Liang also chimed in, "You don't know, our underground fertilizer this year weighs one pound, so this little amount is still less." An Liang is really getting more and more in arrears.

An Cheng looked unbelieving and said as if someone’s field was not fertile, their field was also fertile, but there weren’t that many eels and loaches.

　　After helping to load the four large buckets onto the carriage, An Cheng didn't need to wait for others, and directly took Mei Xue and others to the market.

Mei Xue didn’t want to go to the big market because the prices there really disappointed her.

When approaching the town, Mei Xue hurriedly asked An Cheng: "Ancheng, do you know where the aquatic product farm is?" Is this considered aquatic product?

An Cheng nodded, "Sister-in-law, I know, it's on the west side of the town, a bit far from Daji." Daji is on the east side. It is connected in all directions, and people from all villages gather here.

 On the west side are those who do big business, and those who don’t have much on one side won’t go there.

"Sister-in-law, are you going to the aquaculture farm?" After saying that, An Cheng looked at the four large barrels and saw no dead goods, which was really surprising.

Meixue looked at the other three people and asked, "What do you think?" The things don't belong to her alone. If she were the one, she could make her own decisions.

 “We listen to my sister-in-law.” An Liang is the most well-behaved and obedient.

Of course Anwen had no objection, and finally everyone looked at Anshan.

 “You don’t have to look at me, I will listen to my sister-in-law.” He can see how capable this sister-in-law is.

“Then we’ll go to the fish farm. If the price doesn’t rise significantly, we’ll come back.” Mei Xue made a decision after hearing this.

An Cheng also nodded. Next, he could go directly to the fish market by another way, without having to be stuck in Daji.

 Along the way, everyone was full of expectations, and the most mediocre one was probably Mei Xue, because she really didn’t have high hopes for the price.

It didn’t take long, before the sun came up, An Cheng’s carriage arrived at the fish market, where people were coming and going.

The entrance to the fish market is full of cars, carriages, tractors, trucks, bicycles, etc. It’s really eye-opening.

“Brother Anwen, it would be great if we could buy a 28-bar.” An Liang, who was sitting on the carriage, looked at the bicycle parked next to him and said with envy.

 Anwen also had envy in his eyes, but unfortunately, he would not buy it even if he had money.

 His family’s conditions do not allow it.

Meixue didn't like the bicycle even more. If she had money, she would buy a small bicycle like that. It would be stylish and let her grandma show off in the village. It would be great.

Soon he arrived at the gate. An Cheng stopped the carriage and said, "Sister-in-law, we are here. Cars are not allowed inside." The main reason is that the horses have to poop. If they go in and **** anywhere, it will seriously affect the environment.

 So the market managers banned vehicles from passing through.

"good."

Everyone comes here for the first time, so they lift the bucket first and wait until they enter the market to talk about anything else.

Mei Xue took the lead, directly picked up a bucket of loach and eels and walked inside.

Once you enter, it’s a completely different experience.

People are coming and going in a hurry, everyone is smiling, and they have found something to their liking.

The further you go in, the more people there become. Mei Xue and the others don’t understand the rules inside, so they only run to places with more people.

Someone soon discovered what they were holding, "Little girl, young man, are you here to sell goods?" A middle-aged man with a big belly called several people from the side.

Mei Xue stopped walking, and the man also ran over from a distance.

 When he saw the contents of the bucket, his eyes lit up, "Are you selling all these?" Mingzhi asked.

Mei Xue is a man of few words. When she looked at this middle-aged man, he was really an eyesore and she didn't want to sell anything to him.

An Liang didn't know what his sister-in-law was thinking. When someone asked, he immediately replied: "Yes, uncle, do you want it?"

"Yes, yes, how many do you have?" The uncle has been waiting here for a long time. He came late today and didn't get the fresh goods. What he bought were leftovers from other people's picks. He was really anxious.

 He runs a restaurant in the county town, and his business is good, so he has more needs than others on weekdays. And he is also a good cook, so he is more careful about the selection of ingredients than others.

He goes out to buy fresh goods like this himself.

"We don't have much, just these four barrels. Boss, do you want them all?" An Liang is a talented person.

After Mei Xue saw An Liang talking to him, she put down the bucket and stood aside to watch.

Anshan also stood next to his sister-in-law. He was a little nervous facing outsiders. He was not as good as Anliang, even though he was older than Anliang.

An Wen is like a bodyguard, standing next to An Liang, fearing that he will fall into other people's schemes. He doesn't understand words, but his mind is clear.

 The middle-aged boss looked at the four large barrels. They added up to a lot. Of course he needed them all. With these things, he would not have to worry about meat in the store for at least two days.

Now is the season for eating eels and loaches. They are very plump and a good dish.

“Yes, of course I want them all.” The boss replied with a smile, “I want them all at a cheaper price for me.” No one in business is too thoughtful.

When Mei Xue heard this, she was unhappy, "No, I don't have much money to begin with." If she could, she wouldn't want to sell it, but it's a pity that it doesn't belong to her alone.

“Little girl, I want them all.” The fat boss didn’t give in.

“You don’t have to want them all,” Mei Xue said.

"You girl, why don't you know how to adapt? I bought them all, and you don't have to squeeze in. You can achieve multiple things with one stone."

"It's not much. How much do you pay per pound?" After seeing that his sister-in-law was not happy, An Liang also joined the conversation.

Mei Xue gave An Liang a knowing look, which immediately made An Liang raise his butt.

This is the first time for the middle-aged boss to encounter such an unflexible seller. As before, as long as he says everything he wants, he will sell at a reduced price.

He finally figured out that these children were careless. If they didn't give a satisfactory price, they would miss out on the business. "One piece, no more."

 His price is the most reasonable.
