Chapter 16 Business Genius
"What's my sister doing? She's acting like a pawn. Let me tell you, it's impossible to go whoring for nothing. Boss, tie me up and send her to the government."

As Cui Shun'er said, Pei Zheng who was on the side was about to make a move, but Cui Yan'er, who was sitting on the ground, stood up and quickly fled Pei's house with oil on her feet.

After a farce, the family whose dreams were disturbed went back to their houses and went to sleep.

On the second day, Pei's family got up late together, which made Pei Zheng, who had already lost his job, even more panicked for a while.

"Okay, it's so early in the morning, your mother and I have a headache from shaking, I will clean up later, mother will go up the mountain with you!"

Cui Shun'er looked at the boss who was so restless, and shook her head helplessly.

After breakfast, the mother and son walked towards the mountain together. The mountain was covered with fruit trees, accompanied by various birdsong, which made people feel refreshed for a while.

"Mom! There are rabbits ahead!"

Pei Zheng, who was clearing the way for his mother, pointed to the rabbit he found, and couldn't help but beam with joy.

"Boss, you have a good eye, so let's split up, you go hunting, and I'll pick the fruit."

Cui Shun'er looked at the sun that was getting higher and higher, and couldn't help wanting to speed up, so as not to encounter some wild beasts that came out to look for food at noon.

"Okay, listen to mother, but since my son is not around, mother should be careful."

Pei Zheng worriedly told his old lady a few words, let go of her and ran towards the prey in his eyes.

For a while, the mountain was full of cheerful laughter of mother and son.

Looking at the sun, Cui Shun'er was very satisfied seeing her full harvest.

"Boss! Seriously?"

In the open mountains and fields, Cui Shuner's call was carried by the breeze, and Pei Zheng, who was 50 meters away, heard the call. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the joy of victory appeared on his simple and honest face.

"Mom! I'm here!"

After receiving Pei Zheng's response, Cui Shun'er let go of her worries, and the mother and son met at the intersection going down the mountain.

"Mom! Look!"

Seeing his mother's figure, Pei Zheng happily ran over, holding up his prey as if showing off, wanting to get his mother's approval.

"Yo! The harvest is not small! Pheasants, hares, and silly roe deer!"

Cui Shun'er looked at Pei Zheng's raised hand, and couldn't help being very surprised. In just half a day, her son had harvested so much wild game. It seemed that he could make a good fortune today.

"You did a good job, son! You see, your mother's harvest is no worse than yours."

As Cui Shun'er said, he handed over his bamboo basket, and Pei Zheng looked inside curiously. Wild mushrooms, wild leeks, and some fruits were so full of wild fun that Pei Zheng couldn't help but dim his eyes when he looked at his mother.

Not as joyful as imagined, Cui Shun'er looked at her son's expression in surprise, feeling a little relieved.

"Okay, your mother is not seventy or eighty years old, and can't walk. Now your mother and I still have the strength to earn some money for the family. I am very happy. Don't touch my brows, hurry up and put your thoughts on it." Pack it up for me."

Cui Shun'er knew that Pei Zheng was complaining about his own ineffectiveness, and the mother would feel distressed in her eyes, so Cui Shun'er pretended to reprimand Pei Zheng.

This made Pei Zheng's face turn red, which made him a little embarrassed.

"It's almost noon, and I think we'll take this thing to the county town to sell it before it's too late."

Cui Shun'er urged Pei Zheng, and the mother and son ran to the county seat.

When I came to the county town, there were bustling crowds, accompanied by the sound of hawking, everything was so lively.

Cui Shun'er brought Pei Zheng to an open area, and arranged the game that she had brought with her in an orderly manner, so that she had time to catch her breath.

But seeing that the sellers next to him were selling less and less goods, their behavior remained calm, which made Pei Zheng a little anxious for a while.

"Let's take a walk and take a look. The fresh fruits that were just picked today, and the steaming game, all the guests passing by. Come and taste it, and take a look!"

Pei Zheng's sudden cries made Cui Shun'er look at her son with wide eyes, feeling incredible.

"Boss..."

"Grandma, we have such a good thing, so long as we don't make a sound, I'm afraid that outsiders won't know about it! My son thought, let's learn from those vendors, and try to sell it, maybe someone will be attracted by us!"

Pei Zheng scratched his head a little shyly, explaining his heroism at this moment.

"Good boy, you did the right thing!"

The mother and son were talking, and sure enough, a buyer stopped in front of their booth.

"It's good to have a pheasant, and the color of the coat is also bright. You kid is not lying. How did you sell this chicken?"

Cui Shun'er looked at the well-dressed buyer in front of her, and the big gold ring on her hand made her dizzy. Before she could speak, Pei Zheng answered the question.

"My lord, you have a good eye. This chicken was just brought up from the mountain today. Not to mention it is fresh and delicious. Even with the feathers of this chicken, you can make two beautiful chicken feather shuttlecocks for the children at home! This chicken sells Your sixty coppers are not expensive at all."

Sixty coppers!What a big tone!
Cui Shun'er looked at her son's unusually calm bid, which made her look at the customer in front of her with trepidation.

"You're a clever kid, so I paid attention to you, I bought this chicken!"

As the customer said, he took out the copper plate and put it in Pei Zheng's hand, and walked away with the pheasant.

This smooth opening made Cui Shun'er even more unexpected. She looked at Pei Zheng as if she had discovered a new world, which made her unable to let go of it for a long time.

"Brother has such a clever mouth, so tell me, what are the benefits of your wild leeks and fruits?"

The few guests who had just watched saw that the customer was willing to pay, and they were eager to try it for a while, but they didn't want to pay too easily, so they made things difficult for Pei Zheng.

"Guest officer, this wild leek is naturally freshly picked, and the word "fresh" takes the opportunity, not to mention that it has the effect of nourishing yin and tonifying the kidney."

Pei Zheng introduced it decently to everyone, and then picked up a bunch of grapes, picked a few, put them in the hands of the onlookers, and motioned them to taste them.

Sure enough, after tasting the grapes, those guest officials all showed satisfied expressions, which made Pei Zheng open his mouth knowingly.

"It goes without saying that I have tasted it with my own mouth. Wild game, what we eat is a wild taste. Tell me, is this the reason?"

Pei Zheng's words, of course, meant that those people were convinced. After several orders, Cui Shun'er and the others sold a lot of things, which made the stall owners on the side a little jealous.

Holding the same food at the moment, he was the first to sell it at a low price, which made the stall that was thriving become empty.

"Boss, we don't have much left in our hands, so let's follow suit and see if they dare to be arrogant."
