I am Xu Lingjun, who is full of love in the courtyard

Chapter 15. 15. Pork Guy

After thinking about it, the woman also felt that her request was a little too much.This is already much cheaper than white sugar. Businessmen always want to make money. It seems that they really don't make much.With this in mind, the thought of lowering the price was gone.

"That's fine. Weigh two catties for me."

"Sorry, I don't have a scale at all. Can you borrow a scale to weigh me?"

Hearing this, the woman smiled and said, "You are really interesting. A businessman doesn't have a scale. All right, I'll borrow a scale next door."

"Thank you."

Just as Xu Lingjun was waiting, the woman came to the side, which was also a two-story green brick building.I went in directly, and walked out after a while, and brought a younger woman who was also in her 30s.

The two walked to Xu Lingjun's side, and the woman said to Xu Lingjun, "I'll go home and get something to pretend, just wait a while."

Xu Lingjun said with a smile, "Okay."

After a while, the woman came with a beautiful ceramic plate and said, "Weigh 2 catties for me."

Another woman said, "Give me two catties, too."

Xu Lingjun thought about it, and said, "Sister, I don't think I have so many fudge here."

The woman didn't care about it, and said with a smile, "It's okay, then give me the rest."

"Row."

Xu Lingjun took the handle and weighed it, and it was done quickly.To be honest, Xu Lingjun wouldn't even know how to use a hand lever if he hadn't stayed in the country for a long time before.In today's society, there are a few young people who can weigh with a stick.

Taking off the extra fudge, just stuck the weight above 2 catties, pulled the scale scale to the woman's eyes, and said, "Sister, it's two catties tall."

"Row."

Xu Lingjun poured the soft candy from the weighing pan into the ceramic plate in the woman's hand, and then poured all the remaining soft candy into the weighing pan.Hold the rope on the scale with one hand, and slowly let go of the rod with the other hand, and slowly adjust the weight.Soon it stopped on the scale of 1 catties.

"Sister, there is exactly one catty left."

"Okay." The woman took the fudge from the weighing pan with a ceramic plate.Then the two took out money from their pockets one after another.

A total of 1 yuan and 2 cents, and finally saw the money.Holding the money, Xu Lingjun said goodbye to the two of them with a smile. "Sister, the farmer's market is closed, where can I buy pork now?"

"You can go to the pork guy, their house is on this street. Their house is by the creek at the end of the street."

"Thank you." Xu Lingjun turned his head and left.After walking for dozens of meters, I suddenly found that the hand lever had not been returned to others.I had to go back to the door of the woman's house and said loudly, "Sister, are you home?"

After calling several times, a voice came out from inside, "Who is it?"

"Sister, I am the one just now."

"Ah, you haven't left yet, what's the matter?"

"Elder sister, I forgot to return the handle scale to you."

"Oh, wait a minute."

"Ah."

The woman put down the things in her hand, walked out, looked at the scale in Xu Lingjun's hand, and said with a smile, "Oh, look, I'm so forgetful, I forgot to return my things."

"Eldest sister, I also forgot." After weighing the handle to the woman, Xu Lingjun left.

The street presents a Y-shaped distribution, and there is a small village by the river.Walking along Shangy Road, we soon came to Pork Guy's house.The door opened, and when I reached the door, I didn't go in.He shouted loudly to the inside, "Boss Zhu, are you at home?"

After a while, a fat, square-faced man of about 1 meters came out, looked at Xu Lingjun and said, "Xiaosheng, are you here to buy meat? The food station is closed, come back tomorrow."

"Uncle, I live on the mountain, it's not easy to come here once, can you help me?"

Listening to the same dialect, the pork guy relaxed his vigilance and said, "Xiaosheng, the food station is indeed closed. If you want pork, you have to pay more to buy private ones."

"Uncle, what's the private price?"

"6 cents a catty with a ticket, 8 cents a catty without a ticket."

Xu Lingjun didn't have a ticket, so he said without thinking, "Uncle, bring me a catty of pork without a ticket."

"Okay, you wait, I'll go out for a while. I'll bring you the meat right away."

"Ok."

The pork guy went out, then walked to the back along the path next to the house.Looking back, he didn't see Xu Lingjun.So he entered his house from the back.After cutting a catty of lean pork, he weighed it with a handle, came out from the back, returned the same way, and came to Xu Lingjun.

Holding the hand pole to weigh, hooking the pork, and hanging the rope of the weight to the scale of one catty.The pork guy showed it to Xu Lingjun and said, "Young man, it's a pound."

"Yeah." Xu Lingjun nodded, and continued, "Boss Zhu, your pork is all lean, isn't it a little too much?"

The pork guy is also a businessman who has been in business for many years. He is bold, careful and thick-skinned. He immediately said, "Young students, there are only these pork left. How about this, I will give you 1 cents less, how about it?"

"Okay." Fortunately, the original owner usually cares about money and things, and Xu Lingjun knows that people nowadays are more interested in fat.Lean meat costs less.He took the money out of his pocket, counted 7 cents, and handed it over.

The pork guy took the money, handed Xu Lingjun a piece of dried lotus leaf, and said with a smile, "Young man, if you want to buy meat in the future, come to me again."

"Boss Zhu, if I come to buy from you again, I won't lose money. It will cost me an extra dime every time."

"Haha. You may not be able to buy such good meat at the food station. Let's put it this way, you can't even buy good meat at the food station."

"Why?"

The pork guy didn't answer Xu Lingjun's words, so he turned and went home.

Xu Lingjun didn't really believe what the pork guy said.But he didn't ask any more questions. He put the lean pork wrapped in dried lotus leaves in a bamboo basket and left here.With one yuan left, I have to buy soy sauce, salt and other things.

The supply and marketing cooperative of the commune is just opposite the commune's residence.It's about 100 meters to go back.This is the only supply and marketing cooperative in the commune. Of course, there is still a convenience store of the supply and marketing cooperative in the village, but the things are not as complete as here.

A few minutes later, Xu Lingjun arrived at the store.Looking at a saleswoman in front of the shelf, she said, "Hello, are there any rice bags for sale?"

"There are cloth bags and snakeskin bags, big and small, which one do you want?"

"Can you show me what it looks like?"

这里的供销社员都是本地人，服务态度还算可以。这女的才愿意细心地给许灵均介绍。她把不同的米袋子放在柜台上面。说道，“布袋有10斤、20斤、50斤、100斤的。蛇皮袋只有20斤、50斤、100斤的。你要哪种？”
