Chapter 12 Pomegranate is so powerful

Pomegranate nodded, "Yeah! This is too deceiving."

Even if there is a difference between the purchase price and the sale price, the difference is as much as eleven cents, which is really too bad!
Thinking about how hard they worked to make these chestnuts, such a big bag only cost more than 20 cents, which is really worthless.

"We won't sell to grocery stores anymore!"

Li Rongzong couldn't help but said: "This is the only grocery store in this episode. If we don't sell it to him, then who should we sell it to? We can't go into the city, right? That won't work! It's too far! Besides, I don't know how to go into the city. Where’s the road!”

Pomegranate pointed to him a stall selling roasted chestnuts not far away, "Let's sell it to him!"

Li Rongzong was dumbfounded again. He was selling sugar and roasting chestnuts, not collecting mountain products. Selling to him?

How to sell this?
But before he could figure it out, Pomegranate had already pulled him closer to the stall.

The vendors have been shouting and selling all morning, and only a few are sold here and there. Although Dafengji is bustling with people coming and going, not many people are willing to buy and eat the sugar-roasted chestnuts. Business has been better in the past few days. , it won’t work now.

The vendor looked left and right, thinking that he would go to the city tomorrow to sell. There were more people in the city and the business would be better.

Out of the blue, two people came to the stall. He quickly smiled and said, "Where are you buying sugar-roasted chestnuts? My sugar-roasted chestnuts are sweet and glutinous, and I guarantee they will be delicious! How many do you want, little girl?"

He stared at the pomegranate and smiled. Little girls love to eat sugar-roasted chestnuts the most!

Pomegranate took a sip of the rich aroma emanating from the stall, feeling the sweetness reaching her throat. Therefore, she couldn't help but smile sweetly, "Uncle, do you have chestnuts?"

The vendor: "Huh?"

When he realized it, he was also amused, "Little girl, I am here to sell candied roasted chestnuts, not to collect chestnuts."

Li Rongzong couldn't help but look at Pomegranate when he heard it: See? He already said, how can chestnuts be harvested here?

Pomegranate still smiled and said in a brisk tone: "I know! But, uncle, if you want to sell these roasted chestnuts, don't you also go to the grocery store to buy raw chestnuts? Everyone wants to buy them. Uncle, look, our chestnuts It’s so good! Each piece is big and plump, and it will be more fragrant and sweet when fried!”

The vendor felt very comfortable when he heard that the little girl was sweet-tongued and polite, and she kept saying "you" every time. Among those doing business in the streets, who didn't nod and bow to others with a smile?
How can low-class people like them ever be called "you" by anyone!
The vendor was moved unconsciously, and he couldn't help but poke his neck into the pomegranate sack. He saw that the chestnuts inside were really big, much better than the chestnuts he bought at the grocery store.

He couldn't help but ask: "Little girl, how do you sell these chestnuts?"

Pomegranate said with a smile: "Eight coins per catty! Eight eight cents per pound! Uncle, you are a businessman. I want to ask for a lucky number. I wish you a prosperous business and a lot of money!"

"Ouch!" The vendor grinned unconsciously after hearing this, "You little girl! Why are you so sweet!"

These beautiful words made him feel very comfortable. Naturally, he wanted his business to prosper and make a fortune!

Thinking again, the chestnuts were only eight cents a pound. He went to the grocery store to buy them for thirteen cents, which was a full five cents cheaper.

He nodded immediately and said: "Okay! Thanks to your kind words, I bought this chestnut!"

From the moment the vendor asked about the price of pomegranates and said eight cents per catty, Li Rongzong felt as if he was stepping on the clouds. When the sack was weighed, the vendor actually took out the copper coins and gave them the money without forgetting to talk to them. He said that if there are any more chestnuts, remember to sell them to him again -

Li Rongzong felt that it was even more unreal. Not only that, the vendor later packed a small bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts for the pomegranate!

It wasn't until the big episode that Li Rongzong regained his composure and said, "Pomegranate, why are you so awesome! I should have brought you with me a long time ago!" He really thought that Pomegranate was awesome, and he came to sell chestnuts twice. , I talked to the boss and got only two cents per catty, but when the pomegranates came, they were not sold to the grocery store but to a vendor selling sugar-roasted chestnuts. Not to mention they actually sold them, they sold them for eight One kilogram of Wen sold six Wen more than him!

Weighing the heavy money bag, Li Rongzong grinned belatedly, "Pomegranate, we made a lot of money this time!"

Pomegranate looked at the money bag and nodded, "Yes, a lot of money!"

Well, nearly 150 yuan, which is a lot of money for her now!
Li Rongzong thought for a while and gave the money bag to Pomegranate, "Pomegranate, it's all thanks to you that I can sell it for so much money this time. After all, the extra money should be yours! You take it all !”

Pomegranate couldn't help but smile and said: "Third brother, we picked and sold these chestnuts together, so we should share them equally! We are brothers and sisters, and you have already met me, haven't you?"

Li Rongzong scratched his head and smiled innocently, "I won't go out with you, and you shouldn't go out with me either! Okay, I listen to you!"

"However, we have earned so much money this time, do you want to use some for spending? I think the headband Caifeng wore last time is very beautiful! Buy one too, it will definitely look better when worn! "

Pomegranate shook her head, "Let's hide them all together like before!"

She had a hunch that the money would not be hidden for long, and they should be able to spend it generously soon!
The street vendor gave Pomegranate a small bag of roasted chestnuts with sugar. Pomegranate counted them and there were ten in total!
She sighed that her uncle was an honest man, and gave away the oil paper. She first gave two pills to Li Rongzong, and the brother and sister ate four pills on the way.

The remaining six don't take up much space even if carried on the body.

They hurriedly circled back to the back mountain, carrying the firewood they had hidden here before, and returned home. Everything was as usual at home, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Pomegranate returned to the house with six chestnuts. First, she found her younger brother Li Rongzhang and secretly gave him two to eat. Then she found her fourth brother, Li Rongyu, and her eldest sister, Li Xiangli, and gave them two each.

They are five sisters born from the same father and mother, and they have always had a good relationship. The pomegranate doesn't require much explanation, they don't ask too much, and they don't even talk about it after eating it.

Originally, I wanted to save two pomegranates for my parents, but after thinking about my parents' honest and loyal temperaments, it would be an extra step, so I could only eat them in secret, embarrassed.

-

Father Li spent the whole day looking forward to the stars and the moon, but it turned out to be completely dark and none of the four Li brothers came home.

Father Li was worried, but thinking that it was hard to find work, they were delayed today and couldn't get out of the city, so he became a little worried.

He was not worried that they would have no whereabouts if they stayed in the city. After all, Dafang's successor was in the city!

Jili worked as an accountant in a restaurant in the city. After the family split, he took his wife and children to the city. He rented a small courtyard in the city. Although it was not spacious, his relatives didn't need to worry about it. They could have a roof to block the wind. It's also good for one night.

That night, Father Li rested with a little worry. On the second day, he still walked to the entrance of the village several times. When the sun went down, he finally saw the figures of his sons one after another. Returned to the village.

But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he felt worried again.

"Jiren! What are you doing!"

 Ask for collection! ! !
