Chapter 171
Negotiated the price.

The uncle went down to the fish pond to catch fish.

The uncle fished very swiftly, and within a short while, the uncle landed a bucket full of fish.The wooden barrel is full of small fish, and the small fish are still alive and kicking inside.

"Girls, it's okay. I'll help you weigh the fish now." The uncle works in the fish pond all year round, helping Mrs. Qin look at the fish and selling fish. Sometimes, the uncle will personally deliver the fish to Mrs. Qin .

The uncle does things like fishing several times a day.I have done a lot, and the uncle's hand feel is also accurate. Su Yunjin and the others want [-] catties of small fish, and the uncle reckons that a bucket should be able to weigh [-] catties.

Just caught a bucket, the uncle went ashore.

Su Yunjin and the others followed the uncle to the door. Weighing the fish in the fish pond was done at the door of the fish pond. There was no scale inside. The uncle went to the door and found the big steelyard. Before weighing the fish, the uncle also weighed the barrels The water inside was drained, and when there were only fish left, the uncle found a bag woven with hemp rope, and poured all the fish into the bag, in order to prevent the fish from jumping out of it.

The uncle also tied the bag with a rope by the way.

After doing all this, the uncle took the scale and put the fish on the scale to weigh. The uncle weighed it, and when the scale beam was stable, he smiled and looked at the two sisters, Su Yunjin, "Come on! This bag of fish is 31 in total. Jin, you two girls, come and see, is the number wrong?"

Sisters Su Yunjin and Su Ningxiu were looking at the scale, but the uncle moved the scale in front of the two of them. The two of them took a closer look and found that the number on it was indeed correct, it was 31 catties, and Su Xiaobao also added it Look at the scale with your head, Su Xiaobao will recognize it, but you are not very familiar with it yet, so you have to count slowly.

Su Yunjin knew it was all right at a glance.

"Uncle, you are right, it is 31 catties."

After Su Yunjin and the others confirmed the quantity, the uncle smiled and said again: "Girls, the uncle promised to give you three catties. This uncle fish will pour it out and put it in the bucket you brought. After a while, the uncle will give you another three catties." Then go catch two catties of fish for you and send them up to you!"

The bucket brought by Su Yunjin and the others was placed at the door, and the uncle said that he would pour the fish out of the sack and put it in their bucket.

Su Xiaobao immediately brought their bucket over and put it in front of the uncle, opened the sack, the uncle poured it in two times, and half of the bucket was poured on one side.

These fish are very fresh.

As soon as the uncle poured the fish out, the fish in the bucket jumped around alive and well, and several fish jumped out of the bucket in succession.

The second sister, Su Ningxiu, and Su Xiaobao were busy picking up fish, and the uncle found two pieces of unwanted sackcloth and brought them to Su Yunjin and the others: "Girls, when you go back, cover the bucket with this, so the fish won't be able to jump out. "

"Thank you uncle, thank you uncle." Su Yunjin was still thinking of a way to keep the fish from jumping out!Now that she has the cloth that the uncle gave her to cover the mouth of the wooden barrel, she is not afraid of the fish jumping out again.

The uncle promised to give Su Yunjin and the others three catties of fish, and there was still two catties left. He went down into the fish pond again, and the uncle caught two more fish. The uncle had never weighed these two fish, so he was very straightforward and generous. I gave it to Su Yunjin and the others, "Girls, the fish in this ladle is more than two catties, and the uncle only weighed it, so I will give it to you directly."

As he spoke, the uncle poured the fish in the wooden ladle into Su Yunjin and the others' two wooden barrels one by one.

Su Yunjin thanked the uncle with a smile, and took out the copper plate that he had prepared early in the morning and gave it to the man, "Uncle, here you are, this is the money for buying fish."

The uncle accepted the money, counted it roughly, and accepted it if there was no difference.
