Chapter 44
Gu Rao saw her wavering, and Chen Sheng chased after her, "We see that you are our first guest today and want a good start, so we gave you such an affordable price. If you miss this village, you won't be there. This shop is gone, and future customers will not be able to give it so much cheaper."

"If you buy more, I can give you a cheaper price."

The aunt was completely moved this time.

"I'll take a look first."

"I didn't bring much money when I went out today. It's too expensive and I'm afraid I can't afford it."

Gu Rao took out all the pheasants and hares from the basket, put them on the ground for the aunt to choose, and helped her choose a fatter pheasant and a fatter hare.

"Auntie should have grandchildren at home, right? Buy a bigger one, it will be enough for so many people in the family, and the bigger one will have more meat, so it's a good deal."

"I can see two are good."

Thinking of the gluttonous grandson at home, the aunt softened her heart, gritted her teeth and said, "Just weigh these two for me."

Bieye weighed the selected pheasants and hares.

"The pheasant weighs two catties and six taels, and the hare weighs five catties and one tael."

Gu Rao immediately quoted the price.

"The pheasant will count you eighteen Wen a catty, and two catties and six taels will be 46 Wen. The hare will count you four Wen per catty, and five catties and one tael will be twenty Wen."

There is no decimal point in the calculation method of this era, and there is no rounding, so Gu Rao directly erased the numbers after the decimal point.

"A total of 66 coins."

"If you buy both together, I will only charge you 65 Wen."

After Gu Rao figured it out, he was surprised by the price. He didn't expect it to be so cheap. If he knew that the price would not be lowered just now, the big deal would be to slow down the opening.

The aunt asked cheekily, "Can you wipe off the five-cent change for me?"

Gu Rao smiled and said, "The price I gave you just now, the pheasant will give you five cents less, and the hare will also give you five cents less. If you add up the two, you will get another penny less, and the total will be for you." It’s eleven cents cheaper, and this price is not profitable but a subsidy, it can’t be less.”

For a small business, she let the six cents be wiped out as a change. She really dared to think that if she hadn't been of good quality and didn't want to conflict with the customers, she would have driven them away long ago.

Of course the aunt knew that it was much cheaper, otherwise she wouldn't be so generous to buy two at a time.

But, don't you want to get off to a good start?
It should be okay to give her a little cheaper, right?
"I didn't bring so much money when I came out today..."

Gu Rao kept smiling.

"May I ask how much you have?"

The aunt looked a little unnatural.

"I just brought sixty Wen."

Gu Rao groaned, and said with a smile, "It's easy, I'll just replace it with a smaller pheasant or hare. Would you like to change it to a pheasant or a hare?"

aunt,"……"

It can be seen that he is determined not to give her less.

"I really can't help you."

"Forget it, 65 is 65. Originally, the five renminbi was reserved for my grandson to buy candied haws. I can't buy it this time. When I go back, he will cry with me again."

When he said this, he looked at the proprietress from the corner of the eye, and he still didn't intend to give up in his heart. If the proprietress softened her heart, how about buying candied haws for her grandson with five cents less?
Women are soft-hearted towards children.

Gu Rao could hear that the aunt was hinting at her, rolled her eyes inwardly, but pretended not to understand, and directly tied the two prey with straw ropes and handed them over.

"65 essays, thanks for reviewing."

aunt,"……"

In the end, he took off his shoes, took out the copper plate hidden under the socks, and counted 35 Wen, then took out a cloth bag from his waist, and counted [-] Wen from it.

"Give."

Gu Rao, "..."

Why hide money under your feet?
Seeing Gu Rao's disgust, Bie Ye took the initiative to take the money from the aunt's hand that was tainted with the sour smell of beriberi.

The aunt left with the pheasant and the hare.

Bie Ye went back to the yard, cleaned the copper plate, put it in the money bag, and said to Gu Rao, "Many people hide money like this, just get used to it, and I'll take care of collecting money next time."

Gu Rao, "..."

Suddenly I don't like money so much.

A middle-aged man came over and asked, "Are you selling wild pork? How much is it per catty?"

Bie Ye replied, "39 Wen a catty."

The middle-aged man didn't hesitate, and said directly, "Then give me a catty, cut me a little fatter, and let my wife boil out the oil when I go back, and save it for cooking later."

Bie Ye reckoned, cut off a piece of meat, weighed it with a scale, and it was just over a catty.

A hole was made in the meat with a knife, and then the hemp rope was threaded into it to form a live button.

The middle-aged man gave 39 Wen, and gradually walked away with a catty of meat with a straw rope.

After a while, another guest came.

……

At noon, there was still some meat left, so Bie Ye continued to sell meat outside, while Gu Rao went inside to make lunch.

She took out the fresh kidney flower, washed it with water, cut the kidney flower into two pieces, removed the waist smell, washed it, cut the cross pattern obliquely with a knife on the smooth side, and then cut it into small pieces;

Green and red peppers washed and sliced;
Put sliced ​​garlic, minced ginger, soy sauce, salt, cooking wine, monosodium glutamate, pepper, and starch in a small bowl to make a juice.

Blanch the kidneys in the pot, drain the water, then heat the pan with less oil, pour in the blanched kidneys, stir-fry quickly, and remove the oil after it changes color;

Leave a little oil in the pot, sauté the spice juice, pour in the green and red peppers, continue to stir-fry, and finally pour in the kidneys, stir-fry quickly on high heat until cooked, then put on a plate.

A hot stir-fried kidney is just fine.

The next thing to do is a cold red pepper pork belly.

Wash the pork belly, put it in the pot, cook it and let it cool, cut the cooked pork belly into shreds and put it in a bowl, add shredded red pepper, add minced green onion and ginger, salt, soy sauce, drizzle with chili oil, add a little sesame oil, add Stir in chopped green onion and serve.

Finally, a sauerkraut soup was cooked.

At this time, the rice in the side pot was also cooked, Gu Rao put the dishes on the table, filled two more bowls of rice, put them on the table, and after setting up the bowls and chopsticks, he asked Bie Ye to come in to eat.

During the time she was cooking, Bie Ye sold another dozen catties of pork.

Still, there are plenty left at the stalls.

Gu Rao served another bowl of rice for Bie Ye. After Bie Ye came in, he put some of the two dishes on the rice, and then said to Gu Rao, "I'll eat outside, I'll be back later guest."

While talking, another guest came outside.

Bieye went out with the rice bowl.

The visitor was a young and strong man.

Bie Ye asked, "What do you want to buy?"

The man originally came to buy piglets, but after smelling the aroma of the food, he immediately forgot his original purpose of coming, and stared at the vegetables in the other picnic bowl with disappointment.

"What are you frying? It smells so good!"

Couldn't help swallowing a few times.

Bie Ye didn't know either.

"My wife fried it, and I don't know."

However, it smells really good.

The man urged, "you can eat first, don't worry about me."

Bie Ye, "..."

"Then take a look for yourself first, and tell me if you see something you want to buy."

The man nodded.

Bie Ye then sat down on the chair to eat. He ate stir-fried kidneys first. The instant he ate it, he was overwhelmed by the spicy and delicious aroma of the fried kidneys.
