Chapter 62 Bargaining
Chapter 63 Bargaining
Yang Liu thought he had misheard, but when he looked up at his friend, he knew what he just said was true.

Then, Yang Liu lost control and screamed.

Sheng Xi: "..."

Yang Liu was also embarrassed, and hurriedly pulled Sun Qiang over to cover up, pinched him hard, and conveyed the excitement seriously.

Sun Qiang glared at him fiercely, his eyes telling him that he had felt this excitement all the way!
Yang Liu chuckled and waited for Sheng Xi to explain.

Sheng Xi, Sheng Xi actually had nothing to explain. He just said, "You can use the donkey cart, but you have to prepare the feed for it yourself."

Sheng Xi actually thought about driving the donkey cart home, but firstly, Sun Qiang and the two had to come to her place first every time they went to collect medicine, which would take more than an hour. Secondly, her family now She is already building a house and is already high-profile. If she adds a car at this time... Sheng Xi is a person who has seen darkness. People's hearts are unpredictable. She thinks it is better to keep a low profile recently.

After arranging the car, Sheng Xi went to the bookstore.

As the New Year approaches, red paper takes up more than half of the counter in the bookstore, and there are spring stickers written on the walls.

When Sheng Xi went in, she saw someone asking about the price of spring stickers.

The shopkeeper then pointed to the wall one by one: "This column is worth ten cents a pair, this column is twenty cents a pair, and this column is fifty cents a pair."

Sheng Xi raised his eyebrows, followed what the shopkeeper pointed at, and found that these couplets should have been written by three people. Although each had its own merits, he could still tell the pros and cons among them.

Of course, this was not what surprised Sheng Xi the most. What surprised her the most was the price of the spring stickers, especially the fifty-cent pair. Sheng Xi always felt that she could write it.

The man looked at it again and again, and finally chose a pair worth twenty cents.When checking out, the man was still lamenting about choosing one of the 51 pairs in the coming year.The shopkeeper agreed with a smile and wished him good luck in the coming year, a broad heart and a healthy body, and all the best.

In this way, the transaction ended harmoniously.

As soon as the man left, the shopkeeper greeted Sheng Xi warmly: "Haha, what do you want to buy, girl? Our store has all four treasures in the study room, as well as various literature and classics. Or does the girl want to bring back a pair of spring stickers?"

The shopkeeper has countless readers, but he doesn't think that the little girl in front of him, wearing coarse linen clothes and carrying a basket, knows how to read, and he doesn't think that there is anyone in his family who reads.

He is the only bookstore in the town, and most of the pens, inks, paper and inkstones owned by scholars come from his family. Therefore, the shopkeeper knows almost all the scholars in Shangyang Town and several nearby villages.

The girl in front of me is strange at first glance. Most likely, she is here to buy sex tapes.

Seeing that the shopkeeper was smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, Sheng Xi pointed at the red paper on the counter and asked, "How do you sell that paper?"

The shopkeeper turned around and saw that she was pointing to the red watch. He was slightly surprised, but he didn't show it. He just said: "A piece of money costs five cents."

Sheng Xi asked again: "How many pairs of spring stickers can be cut from this one?"

The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, it turned out that he was looking for someone to write for him.Although you can't make ready-made spring sticker money, you can still make money by making paper money.So, the shopkeeper smiled and replied: "It depends on how big the girl wants to cut it. If it is an ordinary lintel, you can cut almost three pairs."

Sheng Xi settled the score in his mind.A piece of red paper costs five cents, and is cut into three pairs of spring stickers. The cheapest pair of spring stickers is counted as the cheapest, so it comes to 25 cents. After excluding the consumption of pen and ink, it will not be less than twenty cents.Tsk tsk, just pay a person’s salary, it’s a huge profit!
Seeing that Sheng Xi didn't speak, the shopkeeper thought she was worried about being expensive. He had just prepared a speech to persuade Sheng Xi, but heard Sheng Xi suddenly say: "Then give me a knife."

One sword here is 75 pieces. Sheng Xi did a simple calculation. One sword can write 220 five pairs. Each pair is sold at ten cents, so it comes down to two thousand 250 cents. One cut of paper is calculated as 370 five cents, so that’s what’s left. One thousand, eight hundred and seventy five cents.If you remove some pen and ink money, maybe you can get a tael of silver.

Sheng Xi looked at the red paper in front of her and felt inexplicably sad. She felt that writing pairs could make more money than hunting by herself.

The shopkeeper was surprised at first, but when he saw Sheng Xi's bright eyes dimming suddenly, he was afraid that she would regret it, so he immediately said: "Young lady, you want a knife, right? This is a knife, hold it tight, girl!"

Sheng Xi looked up at the shopkeeper: "Isn't it cheaper?"

The shopkeeper twitched his lips, thinking that Sheng Xi had forgotten this: "Haha, of course it's cheaper. If the girl gets more, I'll give her 25 cents less, a total of 350 cents. What do you think?"

Sheng Xi shook his head: "Less."

"This... girl, I am doing a small business. The price sounds high, but purchasing is also expensive! I basically do it based on the cost price. You also know that this book consumes a lot of money. If I sell it too expensively, some people won’t be able to afford it, so I can only sell it at a lower price.”

Sheng Xi pursed her lips and said after a moment of silence: "If it works, then let's make it ten cents cheaper."

The shopkeeper: "...Okay." He wanted to hold on, but seeing Sheng Xi nodding so firmly, he thought it was better not to hold on.What if I scare people away?

The shopkeeper enthusiastically helped Sheng Xi type the red paper, and while typing, he promoted other products: "Girl, if you buy paper, you must use pen and ink. What kind of pen do you want? The shop has soft pen, Hard script and combined script are available in small regular script, medium script, and large script. If you want to choose a regular script, choose Yang brush. If you want to write well, choose Wolf brush."

"How much does a wolf cent cost?" Sheng Xi asked.

The shopkeeper: "Well, the cheapest langhao in our store costs [-] taels."

Sheng Xi directly eliminated Lang Hao.Calculating the remaining money in her hand, she finally spent more money and chose a small regular script Yanghao, a large regular script with both cents, and used one or two smaller ones.In addition, I asked for a knife of bamboo paper.

There is no way, rice paper is too expensive, and even this bamboo paper is no cheaper than red paper.As a result, all the money in her hand was exhausted.

Sheng Xi sighed, not to mention whether they would make money selling Spring Festival couplets, but even if they did, I'm afraid it wouldn't be too much.It seems that we must go into the mountains tomorrow.But it just so happens that the daughter-in-law of the county magistrate passed away on the 24th, so we should find a way to prepare everything for this trip.

Sheng Xi carried a basket of paper back home and met several people from Xiaying Village on the way back.When everyone saw her, they were stunned at first, and then they started talking behind each other's backs. Finally, some people couldn't help but stepped forward to say hello to her.

Sheng Xi didn't mind if someone talked to her. These people didn't care, and she had nothing to worry about.So, when the people following her saw that the man was chatting happily with Sheng Xi, they all came forward and started chatting together.

Of course, more people were curious about how Sheng Xi was suddenly so capable, especially in hunting. They heard from the village chief that apart from the wild boar that he accidentally hit last time, Sheng Xi also shot many other animals. Where is the prey!
What did Sheng Xi say?Sheng Xi could only say: "Perhaps my father really saw that I couldn't survive, so he secretly came back and passed it on to me?"

Everyone: "..."
