Chapter 26

In the early morning of the second day, at halfway through Yinshi, Xie Fanxing and Xie Zhong got up and rushed to the town with their things on their backs.

It was almost the end of the hour, when the uncle and nephew came to the town, and they walked for more than three hours.

This is because Xie Zhong and Xie Fanxing have to rush to the town at the same time, otherwise, with his footsteps, he will be able to reach the town in the early hours.

"Fanxing, let's go to the back kitchen of the restaurant first, and sell the prey caught these days to the restaurant. After discussing the tea seed oil, let's go to the town to buy other things." After arriving in the town, Xie Zhong directly took Following Xie Fanxing, he walked towards the back door of the back kitchen of Yunxianglou Restaurant.

These days, they did not come to the town for more than ten days. They caught more than a dozen hares and pheasants, and they just sold these prey for money to buy things.

"Okay." Xie Fanxing nodded.

Knocking on the door of the back kitchen of the restaurant, the young man in the back kitchen saw that it was Xie Zhonghou, and after the young man welcomed Xie Zhong in, he trotted towards the front hall of the restaurant.

Seeing this, Xie Zhong and Xie Fanxing, their uncle and nephew looked at each other and smiled.

"Uncle, if the enemy doesn't move, I won't move." Xie Fanxing explained again worriedly.

"Uncle knows."

After a while, before shopkeeper Zhang arrived, the voice came: "Brother Xie, you haven't come to town for some time, it's because our wine shop's price is too cheap, you caught him from the mountain. The prey has been sold to a full house."

"Where is the shopkeeper, these days have been busy with farming, so I don't have time to come to town. No, as soon as I am free, I will send the prey I caught these days to Yunxiang Tower as soon as possible.

The shopkeeper, this is my eldest niece Xie Fanxing, Fanxing, this is the shopkeeper Zhang of Yunxianglou. "Xie Zhong explained a few words, he saw shopkeeper Zhang glanced at Fanxing, and Xie Zhong introduced each other to the two of them.

"The shopkeeper is good." Xie Fanxing smiled and nodded towards shopkeeper Zhang.

"Hello, little niece." Shopkeeper Zhang glanced at the girl in front of him.

Seeing that the niece of the Xie family is full of water and spirit, her eyes are clear and generous, and she does not have the shrinking and petty nature of other peasant girls.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xie Zhong handed over the hares and hares they had caught in the past ten days to shopkeeper Zhang.

Shopkeeper Zhang called someone to take these things down and weigh them. The two of them greeted each other while Xie Fanxing listened. Neither of them mentioned the matter of tea seed oil first.

"For the shopkeeper, it weighs 63 catties and five taels." At this time, someone weighed the weight and told Zhang the shopkeeper.

"63 catties and five taels count as 64 catties. One catty is 64 Wenqian, and 960 Jin is 960 Wenqin. Liuzi, go and fetch [-] Wenqin." Shopkeeper Zhang took out a small abacus from his sleeve. , he calculated on the abacus cracklingly, got the total price and told Xie Zhongdao.

"Well, the price is right." Xie Zhong glanced at Fanxing, and after seeing her nodding, Xie Zhong said.

In the past, Xie Zhong had no problem with simple calculations, but he was a little confused by the large amount of prey he sent today. This is one of the reasons why he took Fanxing to the town today, so that he could calculate the price for him. Don't be fooled.

After the six sons went to get the money, shopkeeper Zhang and Xie Zhong continued chatting. In this short period of time, neither of them mentioned the matter of the tea seed oil in tacit understanding.

When the six sons brought the copper plate, Xie Zhong saw that the shopkeeper still didn't mention the tea seed oil, which made Xie Zhong a little anxious, and he couldn't help but glance at the old and determined Xie Fanxing.

Xie Fanxing didn't even look at her uncle, but took the copper plate from shopkeeper Zhang and said, "Thank you so much, shopkeeper. We'll take our leave today, uncle, let's go."

Uncle and nephew Xie Fanxing turned around and hadn't walked out of the back door of the restaurant's back kitchen when they were stopped by shopkeeper Zhang.

Shopkeeper Zhang was also a little depressed. Originally, he wanted Xie Zhong to mention the matter of buying and selling tea seed oil. Then he could take the initiative and make it easier for him to buy the tea seed oil at a lower price.

However, Xie Zhong didn't play his cards according to the rules at all, he just didn't mention the tea seed oil.

In the past, whenever any farmer sent something to their restaurant, it was Baba who wanted to sell it to their restaurant, and the selling price was at his discretion.

When it comes to Xie Zhong, things are completely different.

When shopkeeper Zhang came back to his senses, he found that Xie Zhong often looked at his niece Xie Fanxing.

"Is there anything else the shopkeeper can do?" Xie Fanxing turned around and asked Zhang Zhang with a smile.

"We Ming people don't speak dark words, let's talk about the oil." Shopkeeper Zhang glanced at Xie Zhong, and then he asked Xie Fanxing directly to the point.

"Okay. How much does shopkeeper Zhang plan to pay for the oil that our family squeezes out?" Xie Fanxing saw that the matter had already been picked, and it was useless to hide it, so she asked directly.

"Niece of the Xie family, what price do you think is suitable?" Shopkeeper Zhang asked back.

The initiative returned to his own hands, Zhang shopkeeper smiled complacently.

"Fifteen cents a catty of oil." Xie Fanxing didn't even look at the shopkeeper's smug smile, and she directly quoted the highest price.

Xie Zhong heard his niece quoted such a high price, he was afraid that shopkeeper Zhang would drive them out and stop buying the oil squeezed out by their family, Xie Zhong was sweating coldly.

"It's so expensive. It costs thirteen yuan to buy a catty of fat pork in our wine shop. After pressing the oil, there are oil residues that can be cooked and sold for money. If this is the case, our wine shop might as well just buy fat pork and squeeze the oil ourselves. Why bother with you?" I bought oil here." The shopkeeper Zhang heard the price Xie Fanxing mentioned, his smug smile suddenly collapsed, and he shook his head quickly.

"Boss, you can extract oil from fatty pork in your wine shop, but the oil you can squeeze out from a catty of fatty pork is only seven taels at most, and it is possible to squeeze out five or six taels of less.

As for how much oil residue can be sold for, and how much it can be sold for, the shopkeeper knows it well.

The oil squeezed out by our family must have been cooked by you, the shopkeeper, and you have tried it. I don’t need to say more. The oil sold by my family to the wine shop is a real deal for a catty of oil, not just buying a catty of fat pork. The kind that comes out with only six or seven taels of oil.

If you bought the fried oil from our family, shopkeeper Zhang, you would no longer have to buy fat pork for oil extraction in your wine shop. The process in the middle can save the process of cleaning, cutting, and oil extraction, saving time, effort, and cost. With less firewood and so many tedious things, maybe your wine shop can also reduce labor. In the long run, it is worth the money. "Xie Fanxing analyzed the channel for shopkeeper Zhang.

The purpose is to increase the price of the oil they squeeze out.

Not to mention, shopkeeper Zhang was moved by Xie Fanxing's words.
