Chapter 47 Arithmetic
Butcher Qi was lying on the recliner, fanning his fan intermittently, when he heard Shen Feiyan's words, he stood up smiling and greeted the guests.

"Girl, how much meat do you want to buy?"

"The pigs here are all freshly slaughtered on the same day. The meat is very fresh. Take it home in this weather and soak it in cold water. It won't stink for a day or two."

"Pork belly costs 35 renminbi a catty. If you buy more, I can send you some pigs."

Pig offal is stinky, and most people would not spend money to buy it, but it is meat anyway, and there are a lot of pigs. A pig weighing more than 200 catties alone weighs about thirty catties.

Generally, butchers will sell them at a low price of a few pennies per catty.

Occasionally, when encountering a big customer, some will be given away as extras.

However, it is generally not given away, and they are sold at a low price, because only rich families buy pork by the catty, and most ordinary people buy it by the price.

Since rich people can afford pork, why would they care about those little pigs?
Only the poor would buy pigs and put them in the water.

Butcher Qi has a scar on his face that runs from his forehead across his lips. Instead of giving people a friendly feeling when he smiles, he looks very scary. In addition, he is holding a butcher's knife in his hand. Generally, girls or children will be scared when they see it. The degree of crying.

Xu Chunhua was worried that her sister-in-law would be scared.

Unexpectedly, when he turned his head to look, he realized that the sister-in-law was as calm as a little girl. Not only was she not frightened, she even walked to the stall to bargain with the butcher!

"How do you sell a pig's hind leg?"

"25 Wen a catty."

"Help me weigh the weight of this pig's hind leg."

"okay!"

"Twenty catties and one tael, I'll count it as twenty catties for you."

Shen Feiyan, "..."

Five hundred texts, sorry to bother you.

"What about the pork ribs?"

Butcher Qi was very patient.

"The ribs are cheaper, only twenty cents a catty."

Shen Feiyan nodded.

"Give me two catties of pork belly and two catties of pork ribs. You just said that if you buy more, you will get free. Just send me two catties of pigs to the water. The total is 110 Wen. Help me wipe off the change. How about charging me a hundred Wen?"

Xu Chunhua, "..."

The sister-in-law didn't even count on her fingers, so how did she figure out the price?

Shouldn't it be a random calculation?
Shen Mufeng was also taken aback.

"Sister, when did you become so..."

I don't know how to describe it.

Although my elder sister is not a lady of every family, she has always been very restrained. She used to dare not even take a second look in front of strange men.

This butcher looks so fierce, she dared to ask him to wipe out the six cents as a change!

Don't be afraid of the butcher with a single hand and a knife...

Shen Mufeng shrank her neck, frightened by her own associations, and leaned forward silently. If the butcher suddenly became violent, even if he couldn't take his sister away, he would be able to block her in time.

Butcher Qi, "..."

Silently made a plan, it is really 110 Wenwen money!

This girl has a really good brain too.

If he has such a good mind, he can tell the price directly without the need for a calculation, and he won't be in a hurry when the business is the best.

So some guests are missed.

"Girl, you haggled too hard. It's fine if you want two catties of pigs to go into the water. I promised to give them away before, but I've never seen ten cents wiped out all at once."

"How about this."

"I'll send you half a catty more pigs into the water, count you one hundred and five cents, if you make friends, next time you sell meat, will you still come to my place and buy it?"

Shen Feiyan smiled softly.

"The boss is a straightforward person. I'm sorry to embarrass you. Help me wrap up the meat. As long as your place is cheaper than other places, I will naturally buy from you all the time."
-
Xu Chunhua's heart ached for spending more than 100 Wen at once. Seeing that Shen Feiyan had no plans to go out of the meat market, she was as anxious as pouring oil on a hot pot.

Once he was far away from the butcher shop, his mouth couldn't stop.

"I don't know how long it will take to eat this meat. Don't listen to the butcher's nonsense. Where can I keep it for a few days? The meat that has been left for a long time will get worms!"

"I will buy less next time."

"Our village is not far from the town, so we should buy as much as we eat."
