Chapter 37 Bargaining
So he handed the broom to Li Heng and said, "Tell him!"

Li Heng took the broom and asked the old broom seller, "How do you sell this broom?"

The uncle stretched out two fingers and said slowly, "20 Wen."

Li Heng said: "15 Wen for one, I see that there are still many broom sellers in front, why don't I go to the front to have a look!"

Said put down things ready to go.

"Hey, young man, don't go away! I still have a lot here! I made it myself. Look at this broom, it's strong! No matter how you use it, it won't fall apart! Come here and I'll give you a little bit cheaper !"

Li Heng looked at Zhao Linger proudly.

"Young man, 15 renminbi is 15 renminbi! But whoever buys a broom only buys one. You see, there are yard cleaners, kitchen cleaners, and toilet cleaners here. You have to have one. , otherwise it would be inconvenient to run back and forth!" The uncle pointed out all kinds of brooms to Li Heng one by one.

Li Heng looked at Zhao Linger.

Zhao Linger squatted down and selected a few brooms of different styles, big and small, a total of 4 brooms, which should be enough.

"How much do you think these are in total?" Li Heng asked.

The uncle looked at it and said, "75 Wen in total."

Li Heng said: "A total of 50 essays!"

The uncle said: "How can you bargain so much, kid! You see, this broom is much bigger than the other three. It can't be the same price. You have to give at least 70 Wen."

Li Hengdao: "These three brooms cost 45 renminbi in total. Even if this broom is a bit bigger, it won't cost 25 renminbi! If you want to cheat me out of money by treating me like a child, forget it!"

As he spoke, he put the broom on the stall and stood up.

"Oh, 60 Wen! 60 Wen is for you! There are four in total, and you can sell them to you for 15 Wen each? Look at the quality! I really didn't take advantage of you at all by giving you 60 Wen!"

"Okay, okay, 60 Wen is cheap enough!" Zhao Linger whispered to Li Heng.

"Okay, then 60 Wen! Help me tie it up!" Li Heng said loudly.

Zhao Linger hurriedly took the money and handed it to the old man.

Then he nodded approvingly at Li Heng.

Li Heng immediately regained his spirits!

This is his territory, and he used to come here to sell things from his family!
Thinking of his former home, Li Heng's heart sank suddenly.

But he immediately ordered himself to stop dwelling on the past and concentrate on watching the old man tie up the broom.

He carried the bundled broom on his back and led Zhao Linger to continue walking.

There are so many kinds of things sold here!
Some sell tea, scented tea, porcelain vases, cloth and silk garments, melons, fruits and vegetables, flowers, birds, insects and fish, live chickens and ducks, and children's toys. of……

Zhao Linger is curious about everything.

"Ling'er, hurry up, I have to go back soon!" Li Heng urged.

"Okay, okay!" Zhao Ling'er ran up quickly, following Li Heng's pace.

"Hey, there are mirrors here!" Zhao Linger said and ran to a stall selling mirrors.

"Hey!" Li Heng sighed, walked over impatiently, and said, "You buy the bedding first, or else you won't even have a place to sleep tonight!"

"Okay." Zhao Ling'er reluctantly left the mirror booth.

"I'll ask the boss for a day off tomorrow, and I'll take you to Guqiao to do some shopping. The market there is even bigger than this one! Tomorrow you can buy those useless things!" Li Heng said to Zhao Ling'er with a straight face.

Zhao Linger curled her lips, why is a mirror useless?
After buying pillows and bedding in a hurry, it was past four o'clock.

Li Heng took Zhao Ling'er to the crossroads, found her a carriage, put the quilt, broom, dustpan, mallet and pestle and other items into the carriage, and said to the driver: "When you get to the place, help her put all her things away." Take it off, she is a little girl, she can't move these things."

"Hmph, she's quite good at taking care of people!" Zhao Ling'er secretly laughed.

After the things were unloaded, the first thing Zhao Linger had to do was to clean up!

It will be dark soon.

Zhao Ling'er covered her face with a handkerchief, picked up the broom and climbed onto the bed first, swept all the dust off the bed, then ran to another bedroom, and swept the dust off the other bed.

Then she carefully cleaned every corner of the main house.

It's time to pick up Ayao!

Zhao Ling'er put down the broom, thumped her sore lower back, pulled off her kerchief, and walked out.

Along the way, I met several parents who went to pick up their children. It seems that this area is a school district room!

It's not far from Shuyuan, and it's only a few minutes away.

Seeing A Yao, Zhao Ling'er immediately waved to her.

A Yao ran over and looked around, but she didn't see the carriage.

Zhao Ling'er pulled A Yao and said, "A Yao, I'll take you to a good place!"

"What good place?" A Yao asked.

"Don't ask, just follow me, you will know in a while!"

Zhao Linger pulled her, crossed the street in front, stopped in front of her house, pushed open the door, and said, "Go in, this will be our home from now on."

"Ah?" A Yao was taken aback, and quickly ran into the yard, across the path and into the main room: "It's so big!"

Excitedly, she ran up and down the house, then ran to the kitchen for a while, and came back and said to A Yao, "Then what shall we have for dinner tonight?"

Zhao Ling'er put the mattress on the bed, put her hands on her hips, and said, "Tonight, let's have some food at a small restaurant nearby. Tomorrow night, how about my sister cooking a table of delicious food to celebrate?"

A Yao clapped her hands and called: "Okay, okay!" After finishing speaking, she lowered her head and said, "It would be great if my brother could come too."

Zhao Ling'er silently nodded A Yao's head, and said: "Your brother said that he would ask for leave from the shopkeeper, and your brother will come tomorrow night too!"

A Yao immediately became happy, and said proudly: "Brother is here, I want to recite the "Disciple Regulations" to him, and I can recite all of them! There are still many students in our class who can't recite them!"

"Okay! Ah Yao has been studying very hard! Brother will be proud of you! Come on, let's go eat!"

The two walked hand in hand to a small road in front of Wenda Bookstore, where several small restaurants opened for those school children who didn't want to eat at the bookstore at noon.

A Yao has never eaten here.

Zhao Ling'er was only busy shopping in the afternoon, and didn't have time to eat lunch. Only now did she feel that she was going to be hungry.

After ordering two bowls of noodles, the two devoured them.

After the meal, Zhao Linger took A Yao and walked for a walk.Walking to the gate of Wenda Shuyuan, Zhao Linger asked, "Ayao, do you remember the way from our house to the Shuyuan? From now on, you can go to and from school by yourself."

A Yao thought for a while, then gestured with her arms and asked, "Should I go out and turn this way, and then go straight ahead?"

Zhao Linger nodded and said: "Well, that's how we walked. We'll go back later, and you take me to walk again! From now on, you go to and from school by yourself. Be careful on the road, and don't talk to strangers when they talk to you, let alone talk to them. Follow him, understand?"

It would be great if someone could go to and from school with her. I saw a lot of parents when I picked her up just now. I guess there should be her classmates here.

A Yao said: "I know! Zhou Yongan's house is also in this area, I can be with him when I go home!"

"That's great! When I have time, you can invite him to our house to play, and I'll make delicious food for you!"

"Okay!" Ayao nodded.

 I don't think Li Heng's level of bargaining is very good, but in order not to hurt his self-confidence, let's praise him for being great!
