Chapter 9 Selling Foxes
"We haven't thought about this yet. We don't know anyone there. We want to peel off the skin and take it to the town to have a look." Liu Qiang honestly told Tang Peipei's decision.
In his opinion, since Hunter Zhao often hunted and sold his game, he should know who would buy it and what the price was. Just as he was about to inquire, he heard Hunter Zhao say.
"Since you haven't made up your mind, how about selling it to me?"
"You want to buy skins?" Liu Qiang only knew that Zhao the Hunter sold skins, but this was the first time he heard him say he wanted to buy skins.
Hunter Zhao shook his head. "I want to take the whole fox?"
"You want to take a whole one? Why?"
"I usually store more skins and sell them to the county. The price there is higher and I have more skins, so it's easier to buy. I also know where to buy fox meat in the county. You don't know who to sell it to anyway, so why not sell it to me directly? I'll take it to the county and sell it together."
"So that's how it is, but I don't know what my niece means. After all, this is her fox." In fact, Liu Qiang was tempted, but he didn't know how to negotiate the price.
Hunter Zhao naturally saw Liu Qiang's concerns and said, "Don't worry, I'll sell it to you at the price the town charges for fur. I'll make some money, but you won't suffer any loss. No one in town buys fox meat, so I'll buy it for you too. You don't have to worry about skinning it."
After hearing what Zhao the Hunter said, Liu Qiang was still very tempted, but it was not his, and he had no right to decide!
"But this is my niece's. Although I think it's okay, I still have to ask her, right?"
"Well, Fox, let me stay here first, and then we can go find your niece together, okay?"
"That's fine, let's go." Liu Qiang walked out of the yard first, and Zhao the hunter followed.
After Liu Qiang went to find Zhao the Hunter, Tang Peipei went home first.
There was no food at home. The only flour was used by Tang Peipei to make pancakes in the morning. Looking at the empty house, Tang Peipei became more determined to work hard to make money.
Tang Peipei had no choice but to take out the remaining one or two taels of silver and go to Aunt Du's house again.
"Auntie, we are out of food at home. I want to buy some flour, rice, etc. from you. Is that ok?"
"Yes, of course. I'll get you some." Then he went into the house.
Tang Peipei quickly grabbed Aunt Du and said, "Aunt, use this."
Tang Peipei handed the two cloth bags in her hand to Aunt Du and smiled, "Use these, and help me pack one bag. I'll pay you."
Aunt Du looked at Tang Peipei, thinking that her fox should be able to sell for some money, and nodded, "Okay, let's use this." Aunt Du took the cloth bag and went to fill the rice and flour.
Tang Peipei was holding the little girl and playing with her. After a while, she heard Liu Qiang's voice outside the yard.
Tang Peipei was surprised that it was done so quickly?
Tang Peipei was walking towards the gate holding the little girl, and just then she met Liu Qiang coming in, empty-handed, with an old man following behind him.
"Uncle Liu, why did you come back so soon?" Tang Peipei asked curiously.
"You are here at the right time. Uncle Liu wants to tell you something."
Liu Qiang went into the house and took out two stools and placed them in the yard. After everyone sat down, Liu Qiang introduced Zhao the Hunter and Tang Peipei to each other.
"Peipei, it's like this..." Liu Qiang told Tang Peipei what Zhao the hunter had said.
Tang Peipei looked at Zhao the Hunter and said, "Uncle Zhao, is it okay for me to call you that?"
Hunter Zhao nodded. He really didn't expect that such a weak-looking woman could be the one who hunted the fox.
"Uncle Zhao, I can sell the fox to you." Tang Peipei paused, "I wonder what price Uncle Zhao can give?"
"Girl, since you called me uncle, I naturally don't want to let you suffer too much." Zhao the hunter smiled at Tang Peipei, "You shot the arrow in the wrong place!"
Zhao the Hunter felt very sorry about this.
"Generally speaking, if you want to sell the skin, it is best to shoot the fox's neck, so that you can remove a whole piece of intact skin, and the price will naturally be higher. Your skin is of good quality, but the completeness is not good." Hunter Zhao paused and looked at Tang Peipei.
Tang Peipei had originally picked up the fox, but she still nodded in agreement with what Hunter Zhao said.
"Given the quality and completeness of your fox, you can sell it for about thirty or forty taels in town. No one in town will buy fox meat. I will give you a total of forty-five taels. What do you think?"
Tang Peipei knew that what Hunter Zhao said was true. If she went to the town, she might not be able to sell it at the price Hunter Zhao offered.
After all, she didn't know the price of fur, so she thought about it and nodded.
"can."
"Well, that's good, girl! " Hunter Zhao said with a smile, took out a bag of silver from his arms, took out a silver ingot from it, and handed the rest to Tang Peipei.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhao!" Tang Peipei took the silver and smiled happily.
She finally had some money, and she wanted to see how she could use it.
Tang Peipei went home with the money from selling the fox and the rice and flour bought from Aunt Du.
However, because Aunt Du's family didn't have much rice and flour, she only scooped out two or three large bowls for Tang Peipei, which was enough for Tang Peipei to eat for about a week.
